Chapter 63

63 Underground Cultural Relic

Then, she went to a high-end shopping mall and signed a contract for a 220-square-meter store. The shop in the shopping mall could be renovated directly. Vivian left two bodyguards with Angela and asked them to decorate them according to the previously drawn renovation template. At the same time, she also began to recruit staff for the two shops in the capital.

After that, there was nothing urgent. Vivian brought Leon and David back to the hotel.

Soon, it was five o ‘clock in the afternoon, but there was still no news from Andy. Thinking she would be meeting Jack later and had no information on hand, he called Andy.

“Boss, I was just about to call you.” Andy’s rough voice came from the phone.

“What did you find out?” asked Vivian.

Andy replied, “I’ll first report to you about George’s basic information. He started as an apprentice at Wen Chun Jewelry when he was fifteen. He was arranged to learn about jade jewelry by the shop owner. Because he was remarkably talented in Jade, he was deeply loved by the shop owner. It took him ten years to become an expert in the shop. The shop owner even married his only daughter to George and let him be in charge of the purchase of raw stones and the carving of Jade.”

“However, in addition to the jewelry business, the owner also sells cultural relics and arms. He especially likes to collect cultural relics and antiques from Asian countries. He has a group of customers who especially like to dig up antiques from the ground. However, this man died in a gang fight more than 20 years ago, and his daughter and son-in-law inherited his family property.”

Vivian tried to recall Wen Chun Jewelry, but she didn’t have any impression of it, so she asked, “Is Wen Chun Jewelry very famous?”

Andy nodded and shook his head again. He remembered Vivian could not see him through the phone, so he hurriedly said, “Wen Chun Jewelry’s main focus is high-end customization, and only 12 sets are produced a year. After George took over, he expanded the antique and firearms business, and Jade is more like his personal hobby.”

There were two types of cultural relics, one was above ground, and the other was underground. The cultural relics above ground were always in the hands of living people, while the cultural relics underground were mainly buried with the former royal descendants.

Of course, the fact that they were definitely authentic meant they were not cheap. Even so, it could not stop the enthusiasm of the collectors, even though they knew these things had been buried underground for many years and had carried the negative aura of the dead, even an ancient curse.

Therefore, the profit from jewelry was indeed not enough compared to this part.

Thinking of this, Vivian could not help but Mutter, “Antiques… could this be his goal this time?”

“What’s George doing recently?” Vivian asked.

Andy replied, “I only heard that George is in the North of the capital recently. However, I heard that their circle has not been able to receive antiques and relics from Asia recently. George is really worried now.”

Hearing this, Vivian could already confirm George’s purpose.

A person who was worried about his business suddenly crossed from the South to the North, which meant that this trip could solve his current predicament. So even if they were in the same city, he had to cancel his favorite stone gambling.

Vivian thus concluded that the time of George’s exhibition coincided with the stone gambling event, so time was tight. She had to get in touch with George the day after tomorrow. Otherwise, George would definitely take the goods back to Sage City after the deal was completed.

The Grand Capital Hotel was very close to Vivian’s hotel. It was only a five-minute walk, so Vivian and Leon walked to the appointment.

Not long after Vivian arrived, she saw Jack coming in from the door. Vivian stood up with a smile and took a few steps forward. “Long time no see, Mr. Jack.”

Jack also greeted her warmly, “Ms. Vivian is still as beautiful as ever!”
