MFAW - Chapter 43 - Master Appraisal, Wen Li Makes a Comeback (First Slap in the Face)

 The deafening drum beats resounded throughout the hall, one after another as if they were beating on everyone.

Those who can come to Seeking Jade Relic will certainly know the function of the big drum above, but since the establishment of Seeking Jade Relic, the sound of the drum has never sounded.

Not only that, in recent years, the prices of the artworks that most people have purchased here are much higher than the actual prices.

Even if some serious collectors come here, they will be intimidated by the way these people bid up the price.

When Tong Jingshu listened to the sound of drums from all around, her originally arrogant face suddenly collapsed.

"This is?"

Everyone stood up and watched helplessly as the waiter in bright yellow uniforms walked up to her.

A man wearing gold-rimmed glasses walked in front of Wen Li from behind. He was 1.8 meters tall, wearing a straight suit, and was elegant. His short hair was parted in the middle, which was particularly neat and crisp.

"Miss Mu, congratulations on buying a Jade Annulus from the Warring States period worth 20 million yuan for one million yuan." He said and stretched out his hand.

Wen Li got up and withdrew her fingertips after a symbolic shake with him.

"Xi Moran." He said his name.

"Wen Li."

Everyone was speechless when they heard the name Xi Moran. They all said that the person behind Seeking Jade Relic was named Xi, but the master behind it had never appeared in any public place in so many years.

What happened tonight? The owner of Seeking Jade Relic showed up.

"Impossible, how could that thing be so expensive?" Tong Jingshu was the first to question.

It's obviously just an inconspicuous jade ring, what about it can be worth 20 million?

This isn't a joke, is it?

"Is this young lady questioning the expert appraisal of Seeking Jade Relic?" Xi Moran turned his head, his eyes dark.

Tong Jingshu was stared at by such a look and did not dare to say anything.

The assistant following Xi Moran raised his hand, and an appraisal report was spread out and displayed in front of everyone.

A veritable appraisal report, the seal at the end is Liu Changming's name.

"This was appraised by Mr. Liu!"

Someone in the crowd shouted, and everyone was in an uproar.

Who is Liu Changming? He is the most famous cultural relic appraiser in the entire G country. He comes from a family with generations of antique experts. He has never made any mistakes for many years in the industry, and every valuation is accurate.

"When this collection was purchased, Master Liu happened to be there. He took the opportunity to estimate the price and confirmed that it was a thousand-year-old cultural relic. Do you have any objections?"

Xi Moran's voice was neither humble nor arrogant, and he was not as flattering as the bosses of other institutions.

As soon as Liu Changming's name came out, everyone had to be convinced. In any case, Mu Wen Li got a big bargain this time.

"Miss Mu, do you want to take this collection away or put it here for a second auction?" Xi Moran looked at Wen Li.

"Auction." Wen Li gave his answer with certainty.

This thing is indeed priceless to the person who likes it, but if it cannot be exchanged for money, it will be useless to her, and taking it back will take up space.

The assistant heard the conversation between the two and retreated to deal with the auction of goods.

"I didn't expect her life to be so good." Pu Xi sighed as he looked at the excitement in front of him.

This person's luck is good, and she really can pick up something casually and turn it to be an antique.

"It's not all luck. It seems like she really knows something." Pu Jianchuan expressed his thoughts.

He was looking at the girl's appearance just now when the first collection appeared when it was displayed in front of the individual, although she had a casual attitude, she really made a solid observation.

After confirming that it was not what she wanted, she didn't have any big waves in her eyes. But when it came to the jade, she looked at it carefully for a while and only raised the sign after confirming it.

It looks like the rumor that this wild girl who grew up in a poor countryside and never read a book may not be comprehensive.

"Xi still has some things to deal with, so I won't accompany Miss Mu. please make yourself at home." Xi Moran said politely.

It wasn't until Xi Moran left that everyone came out of the huge shock.

Compared with the mocking looks aimed at Wen Li earlier, when they looked at her now, it was more inquiring and curious.

The second young lady of the Mu family is not as useless as the rumors say.

"Even if she's lucky, so what if she gets a big deal? She's just a poor girl from the countryside." Tong Jingshu said this unforgivingly.

It was for nothing that Mu Wen Li had gained so much limelight. If she acted shocked again at this moment, wouldn't it be looked down upon?

"Have you heard the story of the fox?" Wen Li glanced at the woman who had walked in front of her calmly.

"Fox?" Ning Qi deliberated carefully and looked at her friend hastily after responding, "She said you can't eat grapes and say they're sour."

Everyone in the entire hall heard this, and many people covered their mouths and lowered their heads.

Tong Jingshu was a little red, so she could only rush over, "How dare you ridicule me!"

"Your clothes are quite nice. They are made by a well-known designer and the materials are expensive. It's a pity that if a person wants to be noble, she must not only have an appearance, but more importantly, she must have an inner nobility."

"How dare you scold me!" Tong Jingshu couldn't help it.

This person clearly meant that she was stupid.

Wen Li, who had already walked out, turned back with a harmless expression on her face, "Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying you're stupid, I'm saying you're ugly."

Tong Jingshu reacted immediately and was about to pounce on her. Her face helped her win many endorsements, and she acted in plays of well-known directors, which made her one of the top trafficked A-list actresses.

How dare this woman call her ugly in front of so many people.

How can this be endured?

Ning Qi, who was on the side, hurriedly grabbed her, "There are so many people watching here, why don't we wait until we get out."

Furthermore, the boss of Seeking Jade Relic has a good background. If Tong Jingshu causes trouble here, it will not be easy to solve.

The host stood on the stage from the side and said politely, "Today's collection has been fully displayed. Next is the stone betting session. The rough stones we transported have been placed in the rooms around the hall. 

Seeing Wen Li leaving, Pu Xi held his cell phone and was about to follow.

"What are you going to do?" Pu Jianchuan had quick eyes and quick hands and pulled the person back.

The people here are all respectable, so what's going on with this brat rushing to secretly take photos of people?

"Don't worry, I promised Chenxing, I have to go there."

Pu Jianchuan kindly reminded him, "That little girl is not easy to mess with."

"What am I afraid of? There is Chenxing." Pu Xi waved his hand and followed Wen Li, who was already looking at the stones.

He really recorded the battle tonight. Chenxing won't be able to thank him properly when he gets back.
