Ye Feng walked to the front of the exhibit that was highlighted by the navigation system.
It was a very exquisite glass display case.
Thick bulletproof glass was installed all around.
After the female attendant came over, she realized that Ye Feng might be interested in this item, so she immediately introduced it. âSir, you have good taste.â
âThis handwritten copy of the Bible was the bedside book of the previous Pope in the Vatican. The legendary Pope spent decades of painstaking effort, studying the annotations every day, and finally created such a manuscript.â
âAlthough it isnât as valuable as the few famous Bibles in history, it was once auctioned at a high price of 1.79 million dollars. Even the top appraisers at Sothebyâs headquarters commented that its value in the future will be immeasurable!â
âIf you buy it, you can treat it as a family heirloom and pass it down from generation to generation, enjoying its appreciationâ¦â
Ye Feng did not have any reaction when he heard this.
However, Zhuang Xiaoqiao, who was at the side, had a strange look in her eyes, she could not help but whisper to Ye Feng in Chinese. âWhy do the staff here look like they are from real estate sales?â
âWhen I saw how good their temperaments were just now, I thought they were going to walk on the high-end path.â
âI didnât expect that the moment they opened their mouths, itâs like I was with a real estate sales department back home.â
Ye Feng smiled. âDonât worry about these details.â
âLetâs just focus on the collection itself.â
âThis thing is indeed very valuable.â
As he spoke, he turned to look at the beautiful staff member. âThis is it.â
âI like this kind of cultural thing.â
The beautiful staff member was originally still introducing or promoting her products.
When she heard Ye Feng say that he wanted to get this, she did not react in time, she was still talking non-stop.
It was only after a moment that her brain came back to its senses and she was stunned.
Then, she hurriedly nodded and bowed. âYes, sir.â
âIâll contact the supervisor now and help you handle the relevant procedures.â
âPlease wait a moment!â
Ye Feng did not waste any time, he nodded at her and pulled Zhuang Xiaoqiao along to continue wandering around.
Zhuang Xiaoqiao was very surprised. âWait, are you really going to buy that?â
âThe price tag of that thing is 1.5 million dollars. Thatâs about 10 million yuan!â
âDo you have any special feelings for things like the Bible? I donât understand. Although that foreign beauty praised this thing so much just now, I can tell that this manuscript of the Bible is only produced by an unknown Pope in the Vatican. In terms of collection value, itâs not too greatâ¦â
Ye Feng looked at her. âChildren shouldnât ask so much about adult matters.â
âBesides, youâve been with me for so long. When have you ever seen me suffer a loss in antique collection?â
âPut your heart back into your stomach.â
When Zhuang Xiaoqiao heard this, she probably felt that it made sense and immediately stopped asking.
But after a moment of silence, she suddenly realized something, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on. âStinky Ye Feng, who are you calling a kid?â
âWhich eye of yours saw me as small?â
âYouâre the one whoâs small!â
Ye Feng did not say much, he only used his eyes to glance at her not-too-outstanding feminine features.
It was not harmful, but extremely insulting.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Zhuang Xiaoqiao was annoyed.
She grabbed Ye Fengâs hand and said angrily. âIâm not small at all.â
âI just have a small frame and am petite. I donât like to be noticed by creepy men, so I deliberately wrapped myself up!â
âIf you donât believe me, you can try!â
Ye Feng quickly broke free, he looked around. âThis is not worth trying.â
âItâs in public.â
Zhuang Xiaoqiao was still fuming. âIâm not young anyway!â
âDonât treat me like a child in the future.â
âOtherwise, Iâll bite you to death!â
As she said that, she even flashed her canine teeth at Ye Feng.
âAlright, alright, alright. Youâre not young.â Ye Feng stopped teasing her. âI wonât call you a child anymore.â
âLetâs continue picking out stuff from the collection.â
âHumph!â Zhuang Xiaoqiao finally stopped and turned her gaze to the many collections in the shopping center in Seattle. âThere are also antiques and cultural relics from China. Letâs go over there and take a look.â
âMaybe we can bring back some precious cultural relics that have been lost from our country.â
Ye Feng was using the navigation system.
The navigation showed that there were indeed a few items in the direction Zhuang Xiaoqiao was pointing. They were worth more than the price listed, so he followed her over.
Then, after scanning all the items and confirming that there was a relatively large margin between the purchase price and the sale price, he directly called over the beautiful staff member from earlier. âZhang Daqianâs calligraphy and painting, Qi Baishiâs painting, the deep-sea luminous pearl, that rare book of âTwenty-Four Historiesâ⦠Help me take them out.â
âI want them all.â
At this moment, the beautiful staff member was probably stunned again.
She started to stutter. âSir, are you, are you sure?â
âWith all these things added up, the total price is more than 30 million dollars.â
âMoreover, we only support full-payment transactions. We donât accept any credit or installments.â
Even the guests who were choosing and viewing nearby looked over.
This was the effect that Ye Feng wanted.
Seeing that she was not speaking clearly, he smiled. âMadam, in China, your questioning method is tantamount to questioning the customer.â
âS-Sorry, sir! Iâm just too surprised. I donât have any other intentions!â The beautiful staff member must have been frightened when she heard this. She quickly bowed and apologized.
Then, she said quickly, âIâll contact the supervisor and ask her to come over and help you with the relevant procedures.â
âPlease enter the VIP lounge area. Iâll get someone to prepare some drinks and snacks for you.â
âPlease wait a moment.â
As she said that, she brought Ye Feng and Zhuang Xiaoqiao to an extremely luxurious resting area and quickly reported to her superior.
â¦
As Ye Feng expected.
Not long after the two of them sat in the lounge area and tasted the exquisite coffee and snacks, a commotion came from outside.
âOh my god, itâs President Davis, the person-in-charge of our Seattle shopping center!â
âHe actually came this time!â
âHe must have heard that thereâs a foreign tycoon in our collection area and specially came over to greet him, right? In the past, every time some customers spent a lot of money in the shopping center, it seemed that the Seattle shopping center would pay special attention to retain such high-quality customers!â
âHeâs definitely here for that spendthrift young foreigner!â
ââ¦â
After that, a smiling figure in a suit and leather shoes, who looked rather chubby, led a group of people to Ye Feng and Zhuang Xiaoqiaoâs lounge.
