792 If This Was In Ancient Times, You Would Have Been Conferred as a Marquis
Xue Pu faced the crowd’s raging emotions and a sneer hung on his face. “It’s not that I’m looking down on you, but even if you all join hands, you’re still not Grandmaster Xiao Ye’s match.”
Yao Shunmin glanced at Ye Feng and smiled disdainfully. “So what if his appraisal ability is strong? There are many doors to the antique shop. If there is no one to protect them, they will not be able to establish a foothold in Yang Cheng.”
Xue Pu shook his head and smiled. “I’ll only say one thing. The people of the Chaoxin Gang are extremely respectful to Grandmaster Xiao Ye. As for the rest, you guys can think about it yourself.”
After he finished speaking, he respectfully retreated behind Ye Feng like a devout student.
However, everyone present was shocked by his words.
“What is it? Chaoxin Gang? Those people can do anything, yet they are actually very respectful to Boss Ye? How can this be?”
“I’ve come into contact with that group of people before. They’re all a group of unruly people. How did Boss Ye get in touch with them?”
“We, who do business, also have to listen to the attitude of the Chaoxin Gang. If they come to our shop to cause trouble, I’m afraid it won’t be long before we close down.”
“If there really is someone from the Chaoxin Gang protecting them, then no one would dare to provoke Maple Leaf Pavilion!”
“It’s not that a fierce dragon can’t cross the river. Boss Ye dared to say that just now, so he has such confidence?”
“I can tell that Boss Ye isn’t a simple person at first glance. Look at the size of his celestial heavens and earth pavilions. If this was in ancient times, he would have been conferred the title of Marquis and minister.”
“I was wondering why I had the urge to kneel down when I saw Boss Ye…”
When everyone heard that Ye Feng had a relationship with the Chaoxin Gang, their attitude immediately took a 180-degree turn. Many of them even started flattering him.
Maple Leaf Pavilion was also staring at their boss blankly.
Was their boss really that powerful?
Especially people like Sun Shouyi and Lin Qianqian who were more familiar with Ye Feng, they were also filled with disbelief.
How long had Ye Feng been in Yang Cheng? He already had such great influence? Was he cheating?
As for those people who had followed Yao Shunmin and clamored to boycott Maple Leaf Pavilion, they all dispersed dejectedly.
To put it bluntly, the antique world was just a small circle. When faced with outlaws like the Chaoxin Gang, they had no resistance at all.
Now, they were not even talking about boycotting Maple Leaf Pavilion, they were even worried that Ye Feng would come after them.
Yao Shunmin was the only one left standing in the arena. He was the one who had taken the lead in attacking Maple Leaf Pavilion. He was in high spirits just now, but now, he was in a difficult position to back down.
He couldn’t afford to offend the Chaoxin Gang, but if he were to run away like this, where would Purple Bamboo Pavilion put their face in the future?
“Ahem, it’s not impossible for Maple Leaf Pavilion to enter Yang Cheng. As long as… As long as you can abide by the rules and get along well with your peers, our Purple Bamboo Pavilion will still welcome you very much…”
Everyone present could tell that he wanted to give in, but he couldn’t erase his pride, so he had to say some high-sounding words.
But Ye Feng did not indulge him, he asked coldly: “Follow the rules? Whose rules? Is this the rule set by your Purple Bamboo Pavilion?”
Yao Shunmin hurriedly waved his hand. “No, no, no. It’s… Everyone set the rules together, they set them together…”
As he spoke, he wiped the cold sweat off his forehead. His face was pale with fear.
Ye Feng sneered, his gaze slowly swept across everyone present.
“Our Maple Leaf Pavilion is here to do business. We don’t want to be enemies with anyone, nor do we want to break anyone’s rules. But if anyone thinks that we are easy to bully, then you can try. It’s a good opportunity for me to kill the chicken to warn the monkeys.”
Everyone nodded in agreement to his stare. They were afraid that their eyes were not sincere enough and would be misunderstood by the other party. That would be troublesome.
After saying that, Ye Feng did not say anything else and walked out.
The people from Maple Leaf Pavilion immediately followed. Everyone felt proud.
Previously, they had suffered many difficulties from the antique dealers in Yang Cheng. In the end, they could only swallow their anger. After all, this was not their territory.
However, it was different now. With this domineering boss backing them up, they would be looked up to by others in Yang Cheng in the future. No one would dare to provoke them again.
And Maple Leaf Pavilion was about to enter a bigger stage.
Whether it was Sun Shouyi, Lin Qianqian, Liu Zimu, or the others, they were all filled with confidence for the future.
Maple Leaf Pavilion’s signboard would definitely resound throughout the entire South Guangdong Province and even the entire country.
..
Ye Feng and Xue Pu chatted for a while longer, and after saying some ‘take care of each other in the future’, they left.
Maple Leaf Pavilion had rented a small warehouse in Yang Cheng to store their goods.
When the few of them joined hands and sent the three large wooden chests into the warehouse, Sun Shouyi and the others couldn’t wait to open the chests and take a look.
However, before the boss said anything, they naturally did not dare to act rashly.
Ye Feng naturally saw through their thoughts, he waved his hand. “Open it and take a look.”
Everyone immediately cheered as they searched for tools to open the crates.
Lin Qianqian could not wait to squeeze to the front. She wanted to see what kind of treasure this guy had spent 10 million to buy these ‘blind boxes’.
The moment the box was opened, everyone was stunned apart from Ye Feng.
The chest was filled with all kinds of old objects. There were bronze Buddha statues, jade artifacts, ceramic cups, and agate bowls. It was a dazzling array.
The box was covered with thick thatch, so the items were not damaged from bumping into each other.
Everyone started to take out the items inside. By the time the three boxes were emptied, the floor was already filled with at least a few hundred items.
“I counted. There are a total of 221…”
Lin Qianqian’s voice trembled when she revealed the statistics.
The harvest this time was far beyond her imagination.
She was still blaming Ye Feng for taking too much of a risk, but now, she only felt shock and guilt.
Did this guy really have x-ray vision? Otherwise, how would he know that there were so many treasures in this box?
As she thought about it, she subconsciously covered her chest.
..
“Everyone, please identify what year these things are from.”
Sun Shouyi suppressed the excitement in his heart and was just about to instruct everyone to appraise it.
“They are all funerary objects from the Northern Wei Dynasty.”
Ye Feng was leisurely sitting on a chair, drinking the milk tea that Feng Jianwu had just bought.
“You… How do you know?”
Lin Qianqian was shocked once again. Ye Feng had never checked them before, and he could actually determine the age of these antiques?
Ye Feng wanted to say that it was because he had a system. Of course, this kind of thing couldn’t be said, so he had to make up nonsense. “Because those three people were all from Xishan Province, and it looked like they were digging graves. It used to be the capital of the Northern Wei Dynasty, so it is estimated that there are many large tombs…”
