1049 You Said He’s the Owner of Maple Leaf Pavilion?
The old man stood up in shock. “Young man, are you serious?”
As long as the villagers heard the news, they didn’t even need to go door-to-door to find them. They would fight to find him.
If they agreed that one building was worth 1,000 yuan, then if 10 agreed, 100…
This was simply a pie falling from the sky!
The old man was so excited that tears streamed down his face, and his body kept trembling.
Part of the reason was to earn money, and part of the reason was to prove that he was not a good-for-nothing who just sat there and waited for death.
Ye Feng’s heart was pounding. He was afraid that he would not be able to catch his breath, then he would have committed a huge sin.
Thinking of this, Ye Feng wanted to explain the details to the old secretary, but at this moment, he received a call from Chen Qiushan.
“Brother Ye, I heard you came back to Yang Cheng? Are you free tonight? Let me treat you to a meal?” Chen Qiushan’s enthusiastic voice came from the phone.
“Tonight?” Ye Feng looked at the few old men who were filled with anticipation and hesitated.
“What’s wrong? Are you busy today? How about tomorrow?” Chen Qiushan sounded a little disappointed.
“It’s nothing much. Send me the address.” Ye Feng thought for a while and agreed. Since he had already told them everything, he wanted to ask Chen Qiushan to help him auction that green jade high lamp.
“Alright, I’ll see you later.” Chen Qiushan immediately hung up the phone happily.
Ye Feng hung up the phone and turned to look at the old secretary, “Then I’ll leave the matters here to you, I still have something to do, so I’ll be leaving first.”
The old man grabbed his arm tightly. “Are you sure you’ll come again? What if you don’t want it after I’ve negotiated with them?”
Ye Feng held back his laughter. “Don’t worry, I will send someone over tomorrow to help you with the purchase. They will bring the money with them.”
Only then did the old man relax. “That’s good, that’s good…”
Ye Feng and Chen Xuan then got into the BMW Mini, the group of old people followed behind their car. Until the car was far away, they could still see them standing at the entrance of the village.
“These old people want to prove that they are not people who sit around and wait for death.” Chen Xuan looked at the old people from the rearview mirror and could not help but sigh.
“Everyone will have such a day, so we have to take advantage of our youth and strength to indulge ourselves, so that we won’t be powerless in our old age.”
“Especially you. You can’t let go every time. I have to solve it myself…”
Chen Xuan was listening very seriously at first, but after hearing it, why did his words change?
“You… You’re too much of a hooligan. How can you even talk about this?” She couldn’t help but roll her eyes at him. It was a flirtatious scene.
Ye Feng’s heart was itching. He slowly held her small hand. “Sister Xuan, look, there is a small forest over there.”
“So?”
“Do you want to…”
“I don’t want to!”
“You don’t even know what I want to say, and you say you don’t want to?”
“A dog’s mouth can’t spit out ivory.”
“…”
By the time the two of them arrived at the location Chen Qiushan had confirmed, the sky was already completely dark.
However, this restaurant named ‘Millennium Restaurant’ was brightly lit, and the entrance was filled with luxury cars.
Chen Qiushan was already waiting at the entrance of the restaurant. Beside him stood a middle-aged man with a refined temperament.
When he saw Chen Xuan’s BMW Mini covered in mud, Chen Qiushan was already very surprised.
When Ye Feng and Chen Xuan got off the car, his eyes almost popped out.
The two of them were covered in mud and rushed over without changing their clothes.
“Where did you two go? Why are you acting like a mud monkey?” Chen Qiushan looked at them as if he didn’t know them.
“I went to the countryside and didn’t have time to change my clothes.” Ye Feng smiled indifferently.
“Young people are full of energy.”
Chen Qiushan also smiled and introduced the middle-aged man to him. “This is my old friend, the famous collector Pang Daqian.”
“This is the owner of Maple Leaf Pavilion that I told you about, Mr. Ye Feng.”
The last sentence was directed at the middle-aged man.
He did not introduce Ye Feng’s other identity. He said that he was the owner of Maple Leaf Pavilion.
For people in the collection circle, this identity was more useful than other identities.
But that middle-aged man glanced at Ye Feng and frowned. “Old Chen, are you sure? You said he’s the owner of Maple Leaf Pavilion?”
He had heard of Maple Leaf Pavilion before. It was an antique brand in Zhonghai, but it had recently entered Yang Cheng and was very popular.
He had thought that the owner of Maple Leaf Pavilion was at least 50 or 60 years old. He did not expect him to be so young.
Chen Qiushan knew what he was thinking and immediately smiled. “Old Pang, don’t look down on him. He’s so good at antiques that even many appraisers feel inferior to him.”
Although Pang Daqian heard what he said, the contempt on his face did not diminish at all. He only pursed his lips. “Really?”
Chen Qiushan saw that the atmosphere was a little awkward and hurriedly laughed. “Let’s go in quickly. I’ve already booked a private room.”
Ye Feng did not argue with Pang Daqian. He took the leather bag that contained the green jade high lamp from the car and followed him into the restaurant.
The restaurant was decorated in an antique style, and the fragrance of the dishes assailed their nostrils as soon as they walked in.
Chen Qiushan led the three of them through the hall on the first floor and directly to the second floor.
The private room he had booked was very big. It was more than enough to seat 20 to 30 people.
“Brother Ye, please take a seat.” The moment Chen Qiushan entered the room, he immediately brought Ye Feng to the main seat and asked him to sit down.
Ye Feng did not decline. He sat on it, and Chen Xuan sat on his left side.
Pang Daqian’s expression became even more unsettled when he saw this.
Among the three of them, Ye Feng was the youngest.
In terms of status, Chen Qiushan was the general manager of Sotheby’s Yang Cheng branch, and he was a famous collector in the collection world.
Ye Feng was just the owner of an antique shop, and this identity was probably because he bought the shop because of his family’s wealth. It was just a false reputation.
No matter how he looked at it, it was not his turn to sit in the main seat.
However, he actually sat on it directly. He didn’t know the rules at all!
This caused Ye Feng’s already bad image in his heart to plummet to rock bottom. If not for giving Chen Qiushan face, he would have already left.
Chen Qiushan did not care. He pulled him to sit on Ye Feng’s right side and asked the waiter to serve the dishes.
He ordered the signature dishes of this restaurant. Every dish was exquisitely made, and it made people’s appetites rise.
Ye Feng and Chen Xuan only ate two bites in the afternoon, and after a trip to the countryside in the afternoon, they were really hungry.
Relatively speaking, Chen Xuan was still very restrained. Although she was very hungry, she did not eat.
Ye Feng was different. When the dishes were served, he did not stand on ceremony with the others. He directly picked up his chopsticks and started to eat.
“Mmm, it’s delicious. Why aren’t you guys eating?” His cheeks were bulging, and he did not forget to greet the others.
Bang!
Pang Daqian couldn’t stand it anymore. He slammed the table and stood up. “Old Chen, I have something to do. I’ll be leaving first.”
With that, he stood up and walked out.
