The middle-aged man tried again. "Do you know an expert from the Antique Association?"
"Of course I do. If I didn't, I wouldn't have called him," Gu Ning said.
If the middle-aged man was willing to pay the compensation, Gu Ning wouldn't bother to call an expert to appraise the teapot. However, if the middle-aged man wanted to deny it, she could only call an expert to help him.
The middle-aged man hesitated a little. The onlookers could tell that the middle-aged man wasn't confident, so they all believed that this Yixing clay teapot was real. Precisely because the middle-aged man knew that it was real, he wanted to deny it.
"If this teapot is real and the middle-aged man wants to deny it, the child and his grandfather will suffer a lot."
"Exactly! It's so mean that the middle-aged man didn't pay the compensation after breaking the teapot. "
"Stop talking about it. He's the brother-in-law of the boss of Juxiang Store. He must be very influential!"
"What? The brother-in-law of the boss of Juxiang Store? No wonder he's so arrogant! "
"Well, if this girl really knows an expert from the Antique Association, even Juxiang Store can't deny it."
"Right, I hope this girl really knows an expert from the Antique Association. She can do justice for the poor child and save his grandfather."
"…"
Gu Ning had heard of Juxiang Store. It indeed had a powerful background, but it wasn't comparable to Xiangyun Antique-store.
Xiangyun Antique-store was backed by Jiang Zhongyu, the former president of the Antique Association. Anyone who dared to cause Xiangyun Antique-store trouble was Jiang Zhongyu's enemy. Therefore, ordinary people didn't dare to offend Xiangyun Antique-store, unless they didn't know about it.
Gu Ning, of course, didn't want to use Xiangyun Antique-store's name unless it was absolutely necessary.
Hearing the onlookers' discussion, the middle-aged man felt even more guilty, but he was unwilling to pay the compensation.
"Sir, why are you hesitating? If you want to call an expert, do it right now! We don't want to waste our time. "Gu Ning urged the middle-aged man.
"You …" The middle-aged man didn't know what to do all of a sudden. He didn't dare to call an expert, but he was unwilling to pay for it. After thinking for a while, the middle-aged man made up his mind. I can't be bothered with you. "
After saying that, the man wanted to run away. He felt that the onlookers would not dare to do anything to him. A girl and a child could not do anything to him.
However, right when the man was about to run away, Gu Ning hooked her foot and tripped the man's foot. The man screamed in fear and fell forward at once.
"Bang!" A dog eating shit fell to the ground and let out a miserable cry.
Everyone shook their bodies at the same time. They were shocked by the man's scream. They were also a little numb from his fall and felt pain for him.
However, some people found the man's behavior very funny, and then they couldn't help but laugh.
The man not only felt pain from the fall, but also felt humiliated and angry. He complained weakly, "You, how dare you trip me …"
"If I didn't dare to, I wouldn't have kicked you," Gu Ning sneered.
"You …" The middle-aged man was so mad that he didn't know what to say.
"Stop it. If you break other people's things, you have to pay for it. If you don't, I'll call the police," Gu Ning warned him.
"You … I'm the brother-in-law of the boss of Juxiang Store." No one knew what the middle-aged man was thinking. When Gu Ning heard that Juxiang Store was the boss of Juxiang Store, she didn't have any reaction at all. Now he even used Juxiang Store to threaten Gu Ning.
"It's a good thing to have a brain, but you don't have one. If I'm afraid of Juxiang Store, I wouldn't ask you to pay for it after knowing your relationship with it," Gu Ning said with mockery.
Hearing that, the onlookers also thought that the middle-aged man was a fool. They were also curious about Gu Ning's background. Why wasn't she afraid of Juxiang Store?
Since she wasn't afraid of Juxiang Store, she must be more influential than Juxiang Store.
"You …" The middle-aged man didn't know what to say.
"Who are you?" the middle-aged man asked.
"The boss of Xiangyun Antique-store, Gu Ning." Since the middle-aged man asked, Gu Ning didn't hide it from him.
Most people on the antique street knew that the boss of Xiangyun Antique-store was a girl named Gu Ning, but most of them hadn't seen Gu Ning in person, so they didn't recognize her.
Hearing that, they rounded their eyes at Gu Ning in shock.
What? She's the boss of Xiangyun Antique-store, Gu Ning?
Few people doubted her identity, because they were on the antique street and Xiangyun Antique-store wasn't far away. Only a fool would pretend to be the boss of Xiangyun Antique-store, because she would be exposed at any time.
"Oh, she's the boss of Xiangyun Antique-store!"
"Yes! I heard that the boss of Xiangyun Antique-store is a girl named Gu Ning, but I didn't expect that she's so young and beautiful. "
"Since she's the boss of Xiangyun Antique-store, the middle-aged man won't be able to escape."
"I agree. Xiangyun Antique-store has a powerful backer. Master Jiang and Master Xu are its guarantors. "
"Exactly! The middle-aged man can only pay the compensation now. "
"He broke her things, so he should pay the compensation."
"…"
Everyone was discussing among themselves. The middle-aged man was dumbfounded. He had actually kicked such an iron plate. No, he had actually been targeted by such an iron plate. This time, he was done for.
"Let me ask you one last time. Are you going to pay the compensation or call the police?" Gu Ning asked.
"I-I'll pay the compensation." The middle-aged man hesitated for a while, then gritted his teeth and agreed to pay the compensation.
"Very well, how much should you pay the compensation? Let's go to the appraisal center. It's a fair deal, "Gu Ning said.
"Sure." The middle-aged man had no choice but to agree.
After that, he slowly stood up despite the pain in his body.
"Put these things away, and we'll go to the appraisal center together," Gu Ning said to the young man.
"Sure," the young man said, and put the things into the bag with the purple clay teapot in it at once.
After that, the young man and the middle-aged man followed Gu Ning to the appraisal center.
Because the middle-aged man had a heavy fall, he walked slowly with a limp. Gu Ning didn't urge him, and let him walk slowly.
"Thank you so much, Gu Ning." After walking for a while, the young man finally got his mind back and thanked Gu Ning.
"You're welcome," Gu Ning said gently with a smile.
Gu Ning was very kind to the young man.
When they approached Xiangyun Antique-store, they saw Chen Darong looking around.
