Reincarnation Of The Businesswoman At School Novel

Chapter 331: Evil Antiques

“I’ll go with you,” Leng Shaoting said.

“I’m going to dig up an ancient grave! You’re a military officer who is supposed to stop me from doing so, but you propose to go with me?” Gu Ning teased.

“Since I’m willing to take the risk of going with you, aren’t you supposed to reward me?” Leng Shaoting looked straight at Gu Ning in an amorous way.

Gu Ning of course understood what was on his mind, and gave him an angry look. “Since when have you been so good at flirting?”

“Ever since I’ve been with you,” Leng Shaoting replied. It was true that Leng Shaoting had become outgoing and talkative since Gu Ning became his girlfriend.

Gu Ning flushed a little, and glared at him, but she didn’t seem mad at all. Instead, Leng Shaoting was turned on by her slightly red, beautiful face. “Ningning, if you look at me like that for much longer, I’ll lose control of myself.” His voice was hoarse.

Gu Ning felt like laughing. Why couldn’t she look at him like that? She just gave him an angry look, and he got sexually excited because of it? Leng Shaoting was really horny now. Gu Ning ignored him and walked quickly ahead to keep a distance away from him.

There were three workers in all in Xiangyun Antique-store. One was the store manager, and the other two were salesmen. When Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting got to the store, there was no guests inside. Seeing that they were coming in, a salesman welcomed them at once. “Welcome to our store! Please enjoy yourself.”

Gu Ning didn’t expose her identity right away, but ambled around in the store. It seemed like she had no intention to buy anything. In fact, Gu Ning did it on purpose to test their attitude towards different guests. And it turned out that they were still very polite and kind, at least superficially. After Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting had stayed in the store for a long time, a salesman even poured two cups of tea for them.

When Gu Ning was about to open her mouth, a middle-aged man came inside with a sack in hand. Seeing the man, Gu Ning squinted, because this middle-aged man was in the same condition as the stand owner that Gu Ning had just met. Or to be specific, this middle-aged man looked even weaker and his forehead was even darker. Obviously, he had touched ancient objects with Yin.

Afterwards, Gu Ning’s sight fell on the sack in the man’s hand. She used her Jade Eyes and saw that there was a pile of antiques inside, but most of them were fake. However, there were two real antiques. One was a bronze glass which was 14 CM tall, and the other was a bronze mirror that was 19.3 CM tall. Both of them were from Warring States Period. Meanwhile, there was a mixture of white and black mist around the two real antiques.

It seemed that the two ancient objects were from the same grave as the bronze dagger, and the grave had probably existed since the Warring States Period or earlier.

“I just got a bunch of objects from the countryside. Do you want them?” the man asked.

“Come on in! Let me check first,” the store manager said to him.

There were both real and fake antiques on sale in the store. As long as its style was good and its price wasn’t high, they would buy it.

“Wait a second,” Gu Ning said.

The store manager stopped and looked at Gu Ning. “May I help?”

Gu Ning took out her certificate and handed it to the store manager. The store manager was surprised to find out that their boss was such a young girl. “Nice to meet you, boss!” It was totally beyond their imagination that their new boss was so young! The other two salesmen immediately went over and greeted Gu Ning, “Nice to meet you, boss!”

Gu Ning nodded lightly and said to the store manager, “May I have a look of those objects too?”

The store manager was Chen Darong. He was in his early forties and always worked hard. This year was the 20th year that he had been working in Xiangyun Antique-store. He had started his career as an apprentice, and was now an antique expert.

“Sure, boss,” Chen Darong said. He didn’t despise Gu Ning just because she was young. The fact that she was able to buy Xiangyun Antique-store already proved her ability. Smart people would never judge a person from appearance.

After that, Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting followed Chen Darong and the man and walked into a room. When they were in the room, the man put the sack down and opened it.

Gu Ning pretended to choose among the pile of ancient objects before she picked the bronze mirror and the bronze glass up. “I’ll take these two. Uncle Chen, you can choose among the rest!” Gu Ning said to Chen Darong.

Gu Ning needed to drive the Yin of those two objects away before she put them in the store. Otherwise, all the people in the store would be affected.

Chen Darong was surprised that Gu Ning called him Uncle Chen. It seemed like their new boss was quite pleasant.

“Sure,” Chen Darong said. He didn’t ask why Gu Ning took the two bronze objects. Since Gu Ning chose them, she was going to pay for them herself. The two objects cost her ten thousand yuan in all. The man didn’t know that they were real antiques, so he sold them at the same price as the fake antiques.

Some antique dealers would go to antique stores first when they got a lot of ancient objects from the countryside. If antique stores didn’t want their objects, they would sell them on the antique street themselves.

“Where did you get these ancient objects?” Gu Ning asked the man.

“From several villages, like Fengyang Village, Daning Village and so forth,” the man replied.

A question dawned on Gu Ning suddenly. These real antiques were newly dug out from graves. If the village citizens really dug them out from graves, they should know that they were real. Why did they still sell them at a low price to the antique dealers? Gu Ning couldn’t figure it out. It seemed like she had to go to the village on her own to find out the truth.

Later, Gu Ning used an excuse to use the bathroom and put the bronze mirror as well as the bronze glass in her telepathic eye space. There was a large amount of power in her telepathic eye space, so the two objects would be purified automatically.

Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting didn’t stay in the store any longer, and left for Fengyang Village.

However, Gu Ning wasn’t in a hurry to enter Fengyang Village in the day, because they were going to search for the grave. It was better if they slid into the village during the night. And they couldn’t directly drive into the village, so they booked a room at a nearby hotel. They planned to park the car in the parking lot of the hotel before they walked to the village in the night.
