Reincarnation Of The Businesswoman At School Novel - Chapter 341

Chapter 341: Bronze Sword and Bronze Dagger

When they saw that Master Xu was also there, they were surprised again.

“Master Jiang, nice to meet you!” Chen Darong greeted Jiang Zhongyu, but Jiang Zhongyu was in a hurry to see the bronze, so his sight fell straight on the suitcase which was laid on the table.

He came to the suitcase and immediately started to appraise the bronze. Although Master Xu had already done the appraisal, and Jiang Zhongyu believed his judgment, he still preferred to do it again, because he enjoyed it.

After the appraisal, Jiang Zhongyu also thought that they were real antiques. “Wow, it’s so hard to get real bronze antiques nowadays!”

It wasn’t because bronze antiques were really rare, but because many ancient graves with historical value had already been dug up and all the unearthed ancient objects were placed in the National Museum. Thus it was very rare to see them in the market. The bronze antiques exhibited in the National Museum were only available for viewing, and antique lovers could only collect bronze in the market if there were any available.

When the crowd heard that all the ancient objects were real, they were astonished. Although it wasn’t uncommon that there were real antiques in an antique store, it was unusual to see so many. In addition, Master Jiang came here to do the appraisal in person. If the news went abroad, many buyers would come to acquire the antiques which had been appraised by Master Jiang.

Sometimes, people collected an antique not because it was real, but because of the appraisal’s influence. It was an honor for an antique collector to have an antique which had been appraised by a famous expert.

“What do you think?” Master Xu asked.

“I like this bronze dagger very much, but unfortunately, it’s not my favorite bronze.” Jiang Zhongyu wasn’t disappointed, but felt that it was a shame.

“Um, what kind of bronze do you want, Master Jiang?” Gu Ning asked. She carried many kinds of bronze antiques with her. Maybe she had what Jiang Zhongyu wanted. If there was a bronze antique that Jiang Zhongyu wanted very much, Gu Ning was willing to take it out.

Jiang Zhongyu looked to Gu Ning. Seeing that she was a young girl, he thought that Gu Ning came here with Master Xu, so he turned to ask Master Xu, “This is?”

“Oh, she’s the new boss of Xiangyun Antique-store, Gu Ning,” Master Xu replied.

“Oh! It’s you!” Jiang Zhongyu was surprised. Although he had heard that the new boss of Xiangyun Antique-store was a young girl, he didn’t expect that she was so young. Nevertheless, Jiang Zhongyu didn’t despise her just because she was so young. Instead, he appreciated her a lot, because it was rare to see a teenager who loved antiques nowadays.

Onlookers around them were also surprised, looking at Gu Ning. To their astonishment, the new boss of Xiangyun Antique-store was such a young girl.

“Yes,” Gu Ning smiled. “May I know what kind of bronze you want, Master Jiang? If I can get it in the future, I’ll show it to you first.”

“Very well!” Hearing that, Jiang Zhongyu was excited. “I just want a bronze sword, but it’s so hard to find one.”

Gu Ning coincidentally had a bronze sword in her telepathic eye space. The bronze sword was taken out of the coffin. It had been covered with Yin, but now had been purified after a day in her telepathic eye space. However, Gu Ning wasn’t sure whether Jiang Zhongyu would like the bronze sword, because it wasn’t famous.

Gu Ning smiled, “It seems that Master Jiang is quite lucky today. I indeed have a bronze sword, but I’m not certain that you’ll like it.”

“Really? Please show me right now!” Jiang Zhongyu was thrilled and urged.

“Of course, but please allow me to get it. It’s in my car which is parked in the parking lot,” Gu Ning said standing up.

Everyone was surprised that Gu Ning would leave a real antique in her car. Wasn’t she afraid that it would be stolen?

Jiang Zhongyu nervously chided her, “You left it in the parking lot? Aren’t you afraid that it’ll be stolen?”

Gu Ning smiled and explained, “It’s guarded by someone, so it’ll be safe.”

Hearing that, Jiang Zhongyu relaxed. “Then go get it now!” he urged again.

“Sure,” Gu Ning said. However, when she had only walked a few steps ahead, Master Jiang called her again, “Wait a second. Did you put the bronze sword away because you need it for something else?”

Although Jiang Zhongyu wanted to own a bronze sword, he didn’t want to grab it from Gu Ning.

“No, I didn’t carry it here because the suitcase can’t accommodate that many antiques,” Gu Ning explained.

Hearing that, Jiang Zhongyu was relieved, and he urged once more, “That’s great. Please go get it right now.”

Gu Ning left, but she didn’t go to the parking lot. Instead, when she was sure that there was nobody following her, she went to the washroom again, and took the bronze sword out of her telepathic eye space. She wrapped it with cloth, then went back to Xiangyun Antique-store.

Right after Gu Ning left, several antique lovers who admired Jiang Zhongyu came to Xiangyun Antique-store, and bought two antiques. One was the pastel plate and the other was a bronze glass. They were sold at the price of 6.6 million yuan in total. Including the transaction with Master Xu, Xiangyun Antique-store made 14.6 million yuan today, which was the highest daily profits that Xiangyun Antique-store had ever achieved!

They had made over ten million yuan in a day before, but it was still less than today’s profits. Moreover, today wasn’t finished yet. Master Jiang was likely to buy the bronze sword which Gu Ning was bringing.

After about 10 minutes, Gu Ning was back. The crowd immediately stepped aside to let her pass, in case they accidentally damaged the valuable antique in her hands. Jiang Zhongyu went to welcome Gu Ning the moment she appeared in his sight. He couldn’t wait to see the bronze sword, but no matter how excited he was, he didn’t take it right out of Gu Ning’s hands. He didn’t go ahead to appraise it until Gu Ning put it on the table and unwrapped the cloth.

The ridge of the sword was straight and sharp. The front sill was narrow and the sword was relatively thin. It was perfectly cast and well preserved.

Jiang Zhongyu’s hands were trembling with excitement. People around him were also nervous.

Master Jiang later asked Gu Ning, “Miss, how much is this bronze sword and the bronze dagger?” Although Jiang Zhongyu liked the bronze sword more, he didn’t want to miss the bronze dagger either.

“What’s your opinion?” Gu Ning asked.

“Both of this bronze sword and the bronze dagger are delicately made, especially this bronze sword. There is a Hetian jade set on the hilt, so its owner must have been a noble man. I think it’s worth at least forty million yuan, and the bronze dagger is worth around ten million yuan,” Jiang Zhongyu said. Actually, no matter how much these two bronze antiques were, he would buy them anyway.
