When he saw Elder Xu, he was surprised again. He didn't expect Elder Xu to be here.
"Nice to meet you too, Master Jiang!" Chen Darong greeted him at once, but Jiang Zhongyu didn't have time to talk to him. His eyes were fixed on the suitcase on the table.
Jiang Zhongyu walked to the suitcase and picked up the bronze ware to appraise it at once.
Although Master Xu had already appraised it and Jiang Zhongyu believed that it was real, he still wanted to appraise it himself, because it was an enjoyable process.
After Jiang Zhongyu appraised the bronze ware, he said, "Tsk-tsk, bronze ware is hard to come by nowadays!"
It wasn't because bronze ware was really hard to come by, but because many ancient tombs with historical value had been excavated and the antiques were kept in the national museum, so it was rare to see bronze ware in the public.
Since the antiques were already in the museum, they could only look at them. Only those that were bought from the public could be collected by themselves.
When everyone heard that these antiques were real, they were all astonished. Although it was normal for antique stores to have real antiques, it was rare to have so many real antiques, so everyone was surprised. Moreover, Master Jiang, a famous expert, appraised all of them in person. If the news was spread out, many people would definitely come here to buy the antiques appraised by Master Jiang.
Sometimes, people didn't collect an antique because it was real, but also because the person who appraised it was famous. If the collector bought an antique appraised by a famous expert, he or she would be able to show it to others.
"What do you think? Do you like it?" Master Xu asked.
"I like this bronze dagger very much, but unfortunately, it's not what I really want." Jiang Zhongyu wasn't disappointed, but felt a little regretful.
"Then I wonder what kind of equipment Old Jiang wants in particular!" Asked Gu Ning. She had many bronze wares with her, so she might have what Jiang Zhongyu wanted.
If there was really something that Jiang Zhongyu wanted, she was more than willing to give it to him.
Hearing Gu Ning's voice, Jiang Zhongyu's sight fell on her. Seeing that it was a young girl, he thought that she came here with Master Xu, so he looked at Master Xu and asked, "Who is this?"
"She's the new boss of Xiangyun Antique-store. Her name is Gu Ning," said Master Xu.
"You're the new boss of Xiangyun Antique-store?" Hearing that, Jiang Zhongyu was surprised. Although he had heard that Xiangyun Antique-store was bought by a young woman, he didn't expect that she was so young.
However, Jiang Zhongyu didn't give up on Gu Ning because of her young age. Instead, he admired her. It was very rare to see young people who liked antiques!
The onlookers also looked at Gu Ning in surprise. They all knew that Xiangyun Antique-store had a new owner, but they didn't know that it was a young girl.
"Yes." Gu Ning smiled and replied, "What kind of equipment does Old Jiang want? If you do, you'll be the first to show it to Old Jiang. "
"Alright, alright!" Hearing that, Jiang Zhongyu was naturally happy. "What I want the most is actually a bronze sword, but it's really too difficult to find."
Gu Ning happened to have a bronze sword. It was in Gu Ning's Jade Eyes Space.
This bronze sword was taken out from a coffin. There was Yin energy in it, but it was all removed after being purified in her telepathic eye space for a day.
However, Gu Ning wasn't sure that Jiang Zhongyu would like it, because it wasn't a famous sword after all.
Gu Ning smiled and said, "Old Jiang, it seems that you're very lucky. I happen to have a bronze sword, but I don't know whether you'll like it or not."
"Really? Quick, quick, quick, then let me have a look? "Jiang Zhongyu was wild with joy when he heard this and urged.
"Old Jiang, please wait for a second. The sword isn't in the store. It's in my car in the parking lot," Gu Ning said and stood up.
Hearing that, the onlookers all took a long breath in. They all thought that Gu Ning was too bold. Wasn't she afraid that someone would steal an antique from her car?
Jiang Zhongyu criticized her anxiously. "Aren't you afraid that someone might steal it from your car in the parking lot?"
Gu Ning smiled and explained. "Someone is watching over it. It's fine."
Jiang Zhongyu heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this, and he urged, "Then quickly go get it."
"Sure." Gu Ning was about to leave, but Jiang Zhongyu stopped her after she walked a few steps. "Wait a second. Do you have other uses for the bronze sword?"
Although Jiang Zhongyu wanted the bronze sword, he didn't want to take it by force.
"No, I didn't bring it with me because my suitcase isn't big enough," Gu Ning explained.
Hearing that, Jiang Zhongyu was relieved and urged Gu Ning again. "Great, go and get it now!"
Gu Ning walked out, but she didn't go to the parking lot. Instead, she went to the washroom after making sure that no one was following her. She took out the bronze sword from her telepathic eye space and wrapped it with a cloth before walking to Xiangyun Antique-store.
After Gu Ning left, several antique lovers came to Xiangyun Antique-store because of Jiang Zhongyu's fame, and Xiangyun Antique-store sold two antiques. One was a pastel plate with a price of 3.6 million yuan, while the other was a bronze jue with a price of 3 million yuan.
Together with the three antiques that Master Xu sold, Xiangyun Antique-store made 14.6 million yuan today, which was one of the highest profits that Xiangyun Antique-store had ever made.
There had been several cases where they had made over 10 million yuan in a day, but only one of the antiques was worth that much.
The 16 million yuan wasn't the final profit. When Gu Ning brought the bronze sword here, it would be the highlight of the auction.
A dozen minutes later, Gu Ning was back, and people all stepped aside when they saw her. They were afraid that they would break the things in Gu Ning's hands. Jiang Zhongyu walked to Gu Ning at once when he saw her. He couldn't wait to see the bronze sword, but he didn't take it from Gu Ning's hands right away. Instead, he waited until Gu Ning put the cloth on the table and removed it before he went to appraise it.
The ridge of the sword was straight, slanted, and wide. The front edge was narrow and sharp. The guard was thin, and the stem was round without a hoop. The whole sword was well-made, and the blade was long and well-preserved.
Jiang Zhongyu's hands were trembling with excitement, and people around him were also nervous.
After the result was out, Master Jiang asked, "Girl Gu, how much are you willing to pay for the bronze sword and the bronze dagger?"
Although Jiang Zhongyu preferred the bronze sword, he also liked the bronze dagger, so he didn't want to miss it.
"Master Jiang, how much do you think the bronze sword and the bronze dagger are worth?" Gu Ning asked again.
