Signing In For Eight Years, I Was Exposed As A Zillionaire!

550 I’ll Go Back First

After drinking tea for a while, Ye Xuan saw that it was about time and stood up to bid farewell to the CEOs, who were still admiring and discussing the calligraphy piece.

“Everyone, I’ll go back first. This resort is not bad. When I have time in the future, I’ll definitely come and play again.”

When the CEOs heard this, they quickly walked over and spoke to Ye Xuan respectfully.

“Why is Chairman Ye leaving so soon? We’ve only been with Chairman Ye for a short while, yet we’re about to part ways. I really can’t bear to part with Chairman Ye.”

“Since Chairman Ye has something on, we can’t ask him to stay. In the future, Chairman Ye can come here whenever he wants. Treat it as home. Don’t hold back and play as much as you want.”

“That’s right, that’s right. CEO Zhang is right. If Chairman Ye wants to come here to play in the future, just come. We’ll greet the manager here. Moreover, the resort has Chairman Ye’s inscription now. I believe business will naturally boom in the future. Thank you, Chairman Ye!”

Ye Xuan nodded and glanced at everyone. Then, he cupped his hands and bade farewell.

“Of course, of course. Then, everyone, don’t send us off. After we leave this place, we’ll reach the village entrance. We’ll get into the car and leave.”

After saying that, he turned around and left with his sisters. Although he told the CEOs not to send him off, everyone still followed him out. They stood outside the reception hall and watched as Ye Xuan got into the custom-made Rolls-Royce Phantom Extended edition. Then, they returned and continued to discuss the mystery of Ye Xuan’s words with the calligraphy and painting master of the Tianjing Calligraphy Association, Zhou Li.

Meanwhile, Ye Xuan and his sisters sat in the Rolls-Royce and arrived at the entrance of the Panjiayuan Market in an hour.

The Panjiajia Old Goods Market was located in the southwest of the Panjiajia Bridge on Tianjing Third Ring Road. It occupied an area of 48,500 square meters.

The market is divided into six operating areas, namely the street stall area, the ancient building housing area, the classical furniture area, the modern collection area, the stone carvings area, the dining service area.

Their main business involved antique goods, jewelry, jade, handicrafts, collectibles, and decorations. The annual transaction value was billions of yuan.

There were more than 4,000 merchants and nearly 10,000 business people in the market, 60% of whom came from 28 provinces, cities, and autonomous regions outside Tianjing. They involved more than a dozen ethnic groups such as the Han, Hui, Man, Miao, Dong, Wei, Mong, and the Koreans.

The market was formed in 1992. It developed gradually with the rise and activeness of folk antique and art trading. It became a large-scale antique and art market that spread the folk culture of ancient times.

However, what should be fake was still fake. When the forest was big, there would be all kinds of birds.

After the car stopped, Ye Xuan got out of the car and brought his sisters into the crowded antique and art market. He passed through the crowd and looked at the stalls one by one.

As they walked, Ye Xuan pointed at the antiques and explained to his sisters seriously.

“There has always been a saying in the antique market that one should not easily enter the waters. On the one hand, it means that there are many fish in the market and there are many imitations. On the other hand, it means that antiques are an industry that depends on one’s judgment.”

“It’s said that when there are people, there will be trouble. Antiques are a world of trouble, and antique appraisal involves even more trouble. There was a period of time when antiques were a game for few people. The art market was in a downturn. Later on, the economy developed, and the antique market began to prosper. More and more people were in the antique industry.”

“However, many people created and sold fake goods for benefits, causing the market to be chaotic. At this time, antique appraisal experts were born.”

“This should be a good thing, but some antique appraisers can’t resist the temptation of money, so they only recognize money and don’t distinguish fakes. At this moment, we have to rely on our eyesight and knowledge to learn how to distinguish fakes. If we blindly listen to those experts, we might not necessarily be able to get the real thing. Instead, we might get something even more fake.”

When the sisters heard this, they looked at Ye Xuan in surprise. It was hard to imagine that their little brother knew so much about antiques. It felt like there was nothing he didn’t know.

At this moment, Ye Xuan pointed at a few antiques wrapped in mud and continued.

“Most of these dirty-looking antiques are fake. They dirty the surface of the antiques, making it impossible to distinguish its authenticity and which dynasty it is from. If you ask, the stall owner will tell you that this is from some dynasty. At this moment, you just have to leave with a smile.”

When the sisters heard this, they all revealed expressions that they had learned something. However, Fourth Sister Ye Chan wanted to experiment, so she squatted down and picked up an antique that had soil on it. Then, she looked at the shifty-eyed boss and asked.

“Boss, why is there so much dirt on this antique? I can’t see which dynasty this is from.”

“Aiyo, Miss, this is good stuff. It came from the Song Dynasty. When it was unearthed, in order to protect its value, I didn’t clean the soil. If you want it, I can give it to you at a cheaper price. It’s two million yuan. This is a fixed price. Take it back and clean it. As long as the cleaning method is good, it won’t be a problem to sell it for tens of millions.”

The boss spoke passionately, making his shifty look even more comical.

When the sisters saw this, they looked at one another and smiled at the same time.

Fourth Sister Ye Chan did not say anything else. Now, she really believed her little brother’s words and was convinced.

Seeing that his sisters had mastered this class, Ye Xuan smiled slightly. Then, he squatted down and scanned the stall. He looked around and finally saw a ring that should have been embedded with something but was gone. He picked up the ring and looked at it before asking the boss.

“Boss, this ring is quite good-looking. How much is it?”

The boss looked at the worthless fake ring and thought for a while before speaking to Ye Xuan.

“Little kid, this ring is made of platinum. If you want it, you can take it for a thousand yuan. This is the selling price.”

When Ye Xuan heard this, he smiled and bargained with the boss.

“A thousand yuan is too much. I only have a hundred yuan. That’s all my mother gave me to buy snacks. Will you sell it for a hundred yuan? If you’re selling it, I’ll buy it. If you’re not selling it, I’ll just forget about it.”

With that, he took out a red note from his pocket and gestured to the boss.

When the boss saw this, he originally felt that this ring was worthless. Even if it was made of silver, it was probably not worth a hundred yuan. Now that someone was offering a hundred yuan to buy it, it would be a waste not to sell it. He pretended to be in pain and took the red note.

“Sigh… If it weren’t for the fact that you’re a little kid, I really wouldn’t have sold it. This time, I’ll give you this ring at a loss. In the future, remember to bring your parents to my place more often and buy something to take care of my business.”

Ye Xuan smiled and got up. He turned around and left the stall with his sisters.
