Chapter 130 - 130 Treasure (3)

130 Treasure (3)

Ye Xuan carefully observed his bracelet. It should be a bunch of Starry Bodhi that was worth at least a million yuan.

The third shopkeeper was wearing the same Tang suit as Elder Lin, but the color he chose was black, making him look much more low-key.

He gently opened a folding fan, revealing the slightly yellow surface inside. Although he could not see the exact pattern clearly, judging from the smoothness of the pen and lines, it was definitely the proud work of a master.

Although the fourth shopkeeper was at the back, he was the most eye-catching. His bald head was shining.

His clothes were also exceptionally different.

The other shopkeepers were either wearing long gowns or Chinese clothes.

Only this bald shopkeeper was wearing clothes from international brands. The golden Rolex in his hand shone with a different light.

He did not look like the head shopkeeper of an antique shop at all. He looked completely like a nouveau riche.

However, what attracted Ye Xuan’s attention the most was that this bald shopkeeper’s eyes were extremely bright, as if they could glow.

This shopkeeper seemed to be a little dissatisfied with the brightness of his bald head. From time to time, he would snort.

His rough actions made him look like the Flowery Monk Lu Zhishen.

When Lin Dongpeng saw the four of them appear, his face lit up. He immediately called out, “Seniors, don’t be polite with me. Everyone, sit down and have a cup of tea first! Zhixi, serve tea to the uncles!”

Lin Zhixi responded and returned to the tea table. She quietly started to rinse and brew the tea.

“Tsk, tsk, tsk. Look at how Little Zhixi is walking. She’s really slender and elegant. She’s more and more like a young lady from a wealthy family!”

“Hmph, Elder Lin’s life is really good. He doesn’t look good himself, but he has a beautiful granddaughter!”

“You need over a dozen years to nurture Zhixi’s dignified and generous personality!”

“Zhixi’s tea is getting better and better! When I was still downstairs, I vaguely smelled the fragrance of tea!”

When Lin Dongpeng heard the four shopkeepers praise his granddaughter non-stop, a smug expression appeared on his face. He looked at his granddaughter with even more satisfaction.

How many people in this world could be as outstanding as his granddaughter?

She was not even 20 years old, but she was already so talented. This was his good granddaughter!

Lin Zhixi was not proud or complacent after being praised by these uncles. She only nodded slightly and thanked them. She did not delay the tea she was brewing at all.

There was a hint of calmness in her natural and unrestrained manner. Even Ye Xuan and the others praised her in their hearts.

The bald shopkeeper patted his smooth head and said in a very helpless tone, “Originally, I was angry at Elder Lin for hiding his strength, but when I saw my eldest niece, the anger in my heart dissipated!”

When the other shopkeepers heard this, they burst into laughter.

Lin Dongpeng chuckled and stood up to call them. “Look at how anxious you are! Alright, follow me to the backyard. I’ll let you see the treasure I mentioned.”

Joy flashed across the eyes of the four shopkeepers and they immediately followed Lin Dongpeng.

Zhao Yuan also waved at Ye Xuan and said, “Little Friend Ye, follow me.”

Ye Xuan nodded and was about to follow when he saw Lin Dongpeng and the shopkeepers turn around and stare at him and Zhao Yuan.

All of them had strange expressions on their faces.

However, the strangest thing now was actually their mood.

The few of them were very puzzled. What was Zhao Yuan doing? He actually brought a child to the backyard.

The child looked to be only eight or nine years old. Although he was very good-looking, appreciating ancient paintings was not child’s play.

After being puzzled, the few of them started to complain in their hearts.

Something that could make Lin Dongpeng say that it was good must not be bad. Could this little guy appreciate such a good thing?

What if he accidentally broke it? Would Zhao Yuan be responsible for compensation?

It felt a little wrong for such a small child to appraise the treasure with them.

Most importantly, this was a treasure to begin with. The reason why Lin Dongpeng hid it like this was because he was afraid that if news about it spread, it would cause unnecessary trouble.

Adults like them could not even guarantee that they could keep a secret. However, a young kid might expose the secret before others could ask.

If he really spoke out loud and was heard by someone with ulterior motives, it wouldn’t be good if they caused trouble.

However, they only thought about it in their hearts. Due to their relationship with Zhao Yuan, no one said these words.

When the four shopkeepers saw that Lin Dongpeng did not say anything, they would not offend him first.

Ye Xuan looked at their expressions and asked Liu Yun, Liu Yanran, and the others to stay in the front.

Lin Dongpeng brought them to the back hall and asked them to sit there for the time being. “Please wait a moment. I’ll go get the item.”

After the few of them saw Lin Dongpeng leave, the shopkeeper began to talk to Zhao Yuan.

“Master Zhao, you’ve been in the limelight recently. I’ve watched many episodes of your show. You’re getting more and more elegant!”

“That’s right. However, the number of times you’ve come to Peach Garden recently is a little low!”

“That’s right, Master Zhao. When you’re free, come to our shops and take a look. Perhaps you can find one or two things that you like.”

When Zhao Yuan heard their conversation, he couldn’t help but roll his eyes and say, “Hurry up and forget it. Don’t flatter me. Which of your abilities isn’t above mine?”

The shopkeepers also ignored Ye Xuan’s existence. Although they were a little curious about Ye Xuan’s identity, they were unwilling to ask further if Zhao Yuan didn’t say anything.

If they asked Zhao Yuan about a child for no reason, it would seem like they were degrading themselves!

If he was willing to see the piece, he would just follow behind and look. In any case, they would not lose out.

At this moment, Lin Dongpeng walked in with a slender box in his hands.

The few people present immediately reacted when they saw the box.

Such a slender box was specially used to store calligraphy and paintings.

However, when they saw Lin Dongpeng being careful and even holding it with both hands, a strange feeling arose in their hearts.

To be treated so carefully by Lin Dongpeng, it was probably a peerless work of art.

Thinking of this, the few people present could no longer sit still. They hurriedly stood up and walked to Lin Dongpeng’s side, their eyes burning as they looked at the slender box in front of them.

They wished that their eyes had the ability to see through things so that they could see the reality at a glance.

“Elder Lin, this is…”

Lin Dongpeng raised his hand to stop them from continuing. He gently placed the slender box on the table and opened it, revealing a scroll inside.

Everyone held their breaths and focused, staring at the scroll in front of them without blinking.

Lin Zhixi walked forward gently and helped to open the scroll bit by bit.
