Cheng Feiâer had accidentally found out about this place when she was looking for information. However, when she arrived at her destination, she was immediately disappointed.
In her impression, Edo, an international metropolis, should be filled with tall buildings and a very modern image.
However, this Nishidiwa looked very old, and the buildings were all in the style of the 1960s and 1970s.
Although the streets were kept very clean, it still could not hide the dilapidated state of the place.
She secretly looked at Ye Fengâs expression, afraid that he would tell the leader in anger.
But what was out of her expectations was that Ye Feng did not show any unhappiness on his face. Instead, he looked around with interest.
Ye Feng looked at the dilapidated buildings and asked casually, âThis is the cultural attraction you mentioned?â
Cheng Feiâerâs pretty face blushed slightly. âI didnât know this place was so shabby. If you donât like it, we can change places.â
But Ye Feng shook his head. âWho says I donât like it? I think this place is very good. If I find treasure, Iâll count you in.â
When Cheng Feiâer heard the first half of his sentence, she was only slightly surprised, but when she heard the second half, she was a little shocked.
âLooking for treasures? Is there any treasure here?â She looked puzzled.
âThis place is so old. I guess there should be a lot of good things inside,â Ye Feng said as he quickly walked toward those dilapidated buildings.
âTsk, daydreaming,â Cheng Feiâer muttered to his back.
Did this guy think that there would be antiques in a dilapidated place? It was simply wishful thinking.
Although Ye Feng had used his actions to prove that he was extraordinary, Cheng Feiâer did not believe that he could pick up a treasure so easily, unless he was not human.
But soon, she was slapped in the face.
The moment Ye Feng walked into this dilapidated street, he immediately activated the systemâs deep scanning.
It was like a radar, constantly feeding back information about the surrounding items.
On the surface, he seemed to be looking at the old buildings here, and nothing else could be seen.
After walking for about five minutes, he suddenly stopped in front of a dilapidated courtyard.
The small courtyard was not big, and because it had been in disrepair for a long time, a large part of the white wall had fallen off, and no one had rebuilt it.
From this, it could be seen that this courtyard was either uninhabited or the ownerâs family was poor and could not afford to repair it.
âWhy arenât you leaving?â Cheng Feiâer saw him stop in his tracks and was immediately puzzled.
âIâm a little thirsty. Letâs go in and get a glass of water.â Ye Feng made up a random reason.
âThere seems to be a supermarket in front. Why donât we just go and buy a bottle of water? Why bother others?â Cheng Feiâer pointed at a small supermarket a dozen meters ahead.
âIf thereâs free water, why should I spend money?â Ye Feng asked a question that confused Cheng Feiâer.
The great Mr. Ye, a tycoon with hundreds of billions of assets, actually asked for free water to save 2 yuan of mineral water?
If word got out, people would probably laugh their teeth out, right?
Ye Feng did not give her the chance to talk nonsense. He walked to the door and knocked. âIs anyone there?â
He knocked for two to three minutes, but there was no response.
âI guess no one lives in this house? I think we should forget about it.â Cheng Feiâer tried to persuade him again.
âDonât worry, someone will open the door soon,â Ye Feng casually replied.
âHow did you knowâ¦â
Cheng Feiâer was about to disagree with him, but before she could finish, she heard footsteps coming from inside.
The courtyard door was opened very quickly. An old lady with a head full of white hair poked her head out. âWho are you looking for?â
Ye Feng immediately revealed a harmless smile. âHello, we are here to play, and we are a little thirsty. Can we ask for a glass of water?â
Old Mrs. Han was stunned for a moment, but she quickly regained her senses. She sized up the two of them before pushing the door open. âCome in.â
Ye Feng immediately called out to Cheng Feiâer and entered the courtyard first.
Cheng Feiâer greeted the old lady and followed him in.
The small courtyard was not big, and because it had been in disrepair for a long time, it was a little dilapidated, but it was tidied up in an orderly manner.
It could be seen that although this old lady had difficulty moving, she was a very delicate woman.
After Ye Feng entered the living room, he looked around as if nothing had happened. His gaze finally landed on a piece of porcelain in front of the Buddha statue on the altar.
The porcelain was white with blue and white flowers. It looked like a brush wash, but it was placed there as an incense burner. There were a few incense sticks stuck on it, and it was emitting light smoke.
He only took a glance before looking away.
At this moment, the old lady came over with two glasses of water. âWe havenât had guests in a long time. We only have plain water. Iâm sorry to make a fool of myself.â
The two of them took the water and thanked the old lady.
Ye Feng glanced at the brush wash and then looked at the old lady as if nothing had happened. âDo you believe in Buddhism?â
The old ladyâs face turned sour. âI didnât believe it in the past, but ever since my husband and son passed away, I began to worship Buddha. I hope that I can accumulate some blessings for them in the Elysian World.â
Cheng Feiâer looked at the old lady and sighed in her heart. She quickly comforted her.
Meanwhile, Ye Feng stood up and walked toward the altar. He pretended to light two incense sticks and put them into the âincense burnerâ, then asked in surprise as if he had just discovered it: âThis seems to be a brush wash? Why are you using it as an incense burner?â
The old lady smiled bitterly. âThis was used by my husband when he was still alive to write calligraphy. Iâm relying on the Z familyâs charity to survive now, and I donât have the money to buy an incense burner, so Iâll just make do with this.â
Ye Feng turned around and looked at her. âTo be honest, this brush wash is an antique. I wonder if you intend to sell it?â
When Cheng Feiâer and the old lady heard this, their mouths fell open in shock.
Antiques?
âAntiques?â Especially the old lady, her face was filled with disbelief. She probably didnât expect that the broken jar left behind by her husband was actually an antique.
Ye Feng picked up the brush wash and looked at it for a while before turning back. âI am Chinese, and this brush wash belongs to China. There used to be a scholar in China called Tang Bohu. This brush wash was used by him. It can be said to be priceless now.â
If it was someone else, he might have played some tricks and tricked this brush wash out.
However, seeing that the old ladyâs life was so difficult and that she was kind, he really couldnât do anything to deceive the old lady. He could only tell her the truth.
The old lady obviously didnât have any concept of Tang Bohu, but Cheng Feiâer was stunned.
No matter how uncultured she was, she knew Tang Bohuâs name.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
She didnât expect to encounter the brush wash used by Tang Bohu when they came to ask for a cup of water. What kind of luck was this?
The old lady looked at Ye Feng hesitantly. âPriceless? How much is that?â
Ye Feng pondered for a moment before giving a shocking price. âAt least 150 million.â
