"What?! Ten times bigger than my wood carving?! Idiot! Do you really think that any piece of wood can be compared to mine?! "
Umekawa Shichijiro shouted, "This is the extremely rare Phoenix Eye Agarwood! Most people have never even heard of it! How can a Chinese kid like you come up with something ten times bigger than mine?! Do you think we're three-year-olds?! "
As soon as he said that, the group of antique enthusiasts immediately echoed in agreement.
"That's right! Phoenix Eye Agarwood is extremely precious! It's a priceless treasure in the entire world! "
"And an aged Phoenix Eye Agarwood is even rarer!"
"A thousand-year-old Phoenix Eye Agarwood! Even Mr. Amasa would have to spend a lot of effort to get it, let alone you!"
"We're all wrong! This kid is not arrogant or acting tough! He's just a lunatic! How could you say such crazy things? Even a three-year-old child wouldn't believe you! "
Everyone's disdain for Chen Xiaobei grew stronger. They looked at Chen Xiaobei as if he was an idiot!
"Even a three-year-old wouldn't believe me?"
Chen Xiaobei laughed mockingly and said, "If that's the case, all of you, including Mr. Amasa, don't believe me, right?"
"Of course! Even an idiot wouldn't believe you! "Umekawa Shichijiro said.
Amasa Hiko nodded his head in agreement.
"Alright! Since you guys don't believe me, why don't we make a bet? I'll ask someone to deliver my Phoenix Eye Agarwood Carving to you within an hour! Not only is it ten times bigger than Seven Times One Night's, but it's also older than him! "
Chen Xiaobei narrowed his eyes and said, "If I can do it, each of you will have to pay me one Spiritual Stone! If I can't do it, then I'll never be able to leave Japan like Seven Times One Night said! If you want to kill or plunder, do as you please! "
Amasa Yuki frowned and said, "Mr. Chen! I advise you not to be angry! If you lose, Umekawa Shichijiro will not let you go easily! "
Even though she did not like Chen Xiaobei, she was still a kind person.
To her, it was impossible for Chen Xiaobei to take out such a rare wooden carving. If he lost, Umekawa Shichijiro would definitely punish Chen Xiaobei, or even kill him!
"Xue Ji! This was a bet between men! Don't interrupt! A man must do what he says! "
Umekawa Shichijiro did not give Chen Xiaobei any chance to change his mind.
"I'll accept this bet! I'll ask someone to send the Spirit Stones and sabers over right now! If you win, I'll hand over the spirit stones with both hands! But if you lose, then be like the men of the island nation and commit suicide! Hmph … "
Umekawa Shichijiro sneered.
"Grandpa! Don't let them gamble so much! After all, Mr. Chen saved my life once! "Amasa Yuki frowned.
Amasa Hiko nodded. "Mr. Chen, I'll give you a chance! As long as you take back what you said just now, this old man will treat it as if you didn't say anything and give you the check. I will also guarantee that you will be safe and sound in the island! "
"No! I won't take it back! "
Chen said without hesitation, "Everyone here, if anyone wants to cut me with a knife, you can join the bet! Since you don't believe that I can win, don't miss such a good opportunity to slap me in the face! "
"You don't know what is good for you! I'll bet with you as well! " Amasa Hiko was also a tycoon. He was kind enough to give Chen Xiaobei a chance, but Chen Xiaobei did not buy it. Naturally, the old man was unhappy and wanted to slap Chen Xiaobei in the face.
"Me too! Me too … Me too … "
Amasa Hiko was the leader, so the rest of the antique lovers followed suit. All of them wanted to slap Chen Xiaobei in the face!
Seeing this, Amasa Yuki sighed and said, "Mr. Chen, you're the one who doesn't know what's good for you. I can't help you!"
Chen Xiaobei was not worried. Instead, he was happy. "Since everyone wants to bet, then get someone to send the Spirit Stones over! Of course, you can ask Mr. Amasa to pay for it first. It's just a few dozen people. It's nothing to Mr. Amasa! "
Amasa Hiko snorted and said, "As long as you can hand over the wooden sculpture, I will give you the Spirit Stones! But if you can't, then don't blame me for being merciless! "
"Prepare the Spirit Stones! The wooden sculpture will be here in an hour! "
Chen Xiaobei smiled and made a phone call. He asked Cang Jingu to drive a truck over.
Li Xiang had found the truck at the last minute. Naturally, the truck was empty. There was no wooden sculpture at all.
About half an hour later, Cang Jingu drove the empty truck to the entrance of Amasa Manor.
Chen Xiaobei, Amasa Hiko, and the rest were already waiting there. When Chen Xiaobei saw the truck, he ran towards it.
"Bro Bei, why did you ask me to drive an empty truck here?" Cang Jingu was puzzled. He had no idea what Chen Xiaobei was planning.
"Shh!" Chen Xiaobei gave Cang Jingu a look. It was not convenient to talk about this over the phone, let alone now.
Chen Xiaobei went to the back of the truck and asked Cang Jingu to open the door.
"Now, it's not empty anymore!"
Chen Xiaobei waved his hand at the empty truck. Immediately, a two-meter-tall, one-and-a-half-meter-wide wooden sculpture was taken out from the Infinite Space Ring and placed inside the truck!
"This …" Cang Jingu was shocked. So, Chen Xiaobei was using the empty truck to cover up the existence of the Infinite Space Ring.
"Everyone! Open your eyes wide and come over to take a look! "Chen Xiaobei smiled.
"Hmph! This kid won't shed a tear until he sees his own coffin! "
With Amasa Hiko leading the way, the group of people who called themselves antique experts walked towards Chen Xiaobei.
"This … This … This … This …"
Initially, all of them had a nonchalant look on their faces. But when they looked into the truck, their eyes popped out of their sockets.
"Oh my god! Isn't this too beautiful? There are all sorts of birds surrounding the Divine Phoenix! This must be the legendary 'All Birds Pay Homage to the Phoenix'! "
Amasa Yuki exclaimed. "I've never seen such an exquisite piece of art in my entire life!"
The surrounding antique experts were even more dumbfounded. They were amazed by the Heavenly Jewel.
"Phoenix Eyes Agarwood! This was the genuine Phoenix Eye Agarwood! Look at the color! And look at the shape of the phoenix eyes! It's definitely older than Master Meichuan's! "
"Master Meichuan's wooden sculpture is only twenty centimeters tall and ten centimeters wide. It's not even one-tenth the size of this wooden sculpture!"
"On top of that, Master Meichuan's wooden sculpture is only a lone phoenix! This wooden sculpture is in the shape of a hundred birds paying homage to the phoenix! The craftsmanship is a hundred times more complicated! The amount of time and energy required is more than a hundred times! "
"Oh my god … It's such an honor to be able to see such an exquisite piece of art in my lifetime!"
The group of antique experts exclaimed. They stared at Chen Xiaobei's wooden sculpture like a group of old bachelors staring at a peerless beauty. Their saliva almost dripped out of their mouths.
At the same time, Umekawa Shichijiro was completely dumbfounded.
As the saying goes, there is no harm without comparison.
Compared to Chen Xiaobei's' All Birds Pay Homage to the Phoenix ', Umekawa Shichijiro's wooden sculpture was just a scrap. There was no comparison at all!
"Sigh …"
