He never thought that this thing would be so dangerous. Didn't this mean that he almost lost his life just now when he was walking through the gates of hell?
Seeing the expression on Lin Jing's face, Feng Yuqing laughed again. "Haha, little brother, don't be so excited. This item isn't a treasure passed down from ancient times, but is a copy of modern times. Although it is a copy, its value is far above that of this broken stone."
When the time comes, you won't let him go. Since the person in charge of the Arts and Arts Town has arrived, he will not be able to bear the consequences, after all, this thing is used to harm people's lives. At the very least, Qing Dong is never allowed to enter the Arts and Arts City.
Lin Jing once again expressed his gratitude to Feng Yuqing while carefully putting away the box. No matter what, he couldn't casually take it out again in the future. If he kept it, it could be considered a long memory.
Just as he was thinking about this, he heard Feng Yuqing ask, "Little brother, where's your store's boss? I have something to discuss with him."
"I'm sorry, Mr. Feng. The boss is no longer here. He went out to shop. If you don't want to come back next time, or if you want to buy or sell something, I can make the decision." Lin Jing thought for a moment.
"Not here? "Then forget it, I don't buy or sell anything. I just want to ask if he needs an appraiser." Feng Yuqing said with a calm expression. After drinking a mouthful of tea, he stood up and said, "Alright then. Since your boss is not here, I'll go somewhere else to ask."
His heart stirred, and Lin Jing hastily asked him, "Mister Feng, please wait a moment. I have something I would like to discuss with you."
Feng Yuqing frowned and turned to look at Lin Jing, asking, "What's wrong? Your boss is not here, do you think you can make the decision?"
"I didn't mean it that way. Although the owner of this store isn't here, I know another owner. It's the one opposite the other store. Did you see that?" Lin Jing said to Feng Yuqing with a smile.
"The one on the other side?" "Oh, it's reopened. Not bad, not bad. I thought it was completely yellow." Feng Yuqing glanced at the other side as he spoke.
"Yes, it will open in less than three days. I've seen their boss before, he's a pretty good person. Mr. Feng, if you don't mind, where can we go?" Lin Jing calculated in his heart before he spoke.
Feng Yuqing narrowed his eyes and sized Lin Jing up from head to toe. With a strange expression, he asked, "Little brother, I'm not sure if I should say something. You're working in this shop and you're familiar with the boss opposite you, so this isn't a good thing."
"Mr. Feng, you misunderstand. Although that shop across the way is not owned by one family, the owner of that shop is an open-minded person who is willing to cooperate with our boss, so …" Lin Jingben wanted to explain, but he was interrupted halfway through his words.
"Little brother, I am an honest man, and I also like being honest. If you have anything to say, you'd better say it openly."
He took a deep breath and decisively said, "Mister Feng, since this is the case, I won't hide it from you. The shop across the street was actually opened by me, and this shop was opened by my father-in-law. At present, only you and I know about this."
"Because of some reasons, I can't reveal my identity for the time being, so even though the shop is prepared, there's no way for me to manage it. And as you saw just now, with my current level, I really don't have the ability to manage a shop, so I think …"
"You want me to help you make a shop owner?" Feng Yuqing's reaction was extremely fast. With a slight smile, he looked at Lin Jing and asked.
"That's what I meant. Mr Feng, I sincerely want to invite you. I know that with your abilities, you will be a guest wherever you go. I have a new store and I just want to invite you for a little …" Lin Jing spoke with a sincere expression, but was interrupted once more by Feng Yuqing.
"You really don't know me, do you?" Feng Yuqing looked at Lin Jing and suddenly asked.
"Eh, please forgive me for being unable to see …"
"Alright, let me change the topic. You said just now, your identity is not good to be revealed to the public, so you definitely can't control the shop. If you want me to be the shopkeeper, it's equivalent to handing the entire shop over to me."
Feng Yuqing's lips curved into a smile as he stared at Lin Jing and said, "It's not like you don't know who I am. We've only met once, aren't you afraid that I'll sell all the things in your store along with your goods and escape with the money?"
Lin Jing's expression froze. He really hadn't thought of this question before.
Feng Yuqing had just helped him, and he was so strong. When he heard the question from the appraiser in the store, his subconscious reaction was that if he could get such a shopkeeper, then he would definitely earn a lot of money.
Now that Feng Yuqing had mentioned it, Lin Jing had no choice but to think about it. Looking at Feng Yuqing's unfriendly face, he hesitated for a long time before saying, "I believe in Mr Feng's character. If I'm wrong, then I deserve to lose."
"Oh? You're still young, but you have quite the guts. That's great." A smile appeared on Feng Yuqing's face as he continued, "If you had directly said 'ah, the moment you opened your mouth you were a proper person' or something like that, I would have definitely left immediately and definitely wouldn't have cared about you."
"But after thinking for a long time, you were lied to when you came with me. Alright, I have my hopes on you, I can promise to be your shopkeeper, but my price is very high, and I'm a person who hates trouble, so I don't like lodging. So when the shop opens, you have to pay me 40% of the deposit first."
After thinking for a moment, Lin Jing nodded his head and said, "Sure, no problem. I wonder how much Mister Feng thinks will meet your requirements?"
"Five hundred and one years. At the same time, I don't care how much money you earn by buying and selling your own goods, but if you sell them after buying from me, I want twenty percent of the profit." Feng Yuqing said confidently.
"Alright, I promise you, a deposit of 40%, 5 million is 2 million. As soon as the store opens, I will charge you to your account." Lin Jing nodded.
With an annual salary of 5 million, he still had to pay 40%. The items he bought would be sold, and he would also receive 20% of the profit. No matter which store he stayed in, he would definitely not agree to these conditions.
Of course, it wasn't because he wasn't in need of money, so he was obediently cheated. The first reason was because he felt that Feng Yuqing was worth the price, and the second was that he would be managing the business from now on. Most of them were sent by Hui Bo, and he wouldn't specifically ask Feng Yuqing to buy them.
In actuality, those purchased in the open were basically all the credit of Feng Yuqing, which was twenty percent off the charts.
The most important thing was that Lin Jing believed that as long as enough respect was given to the other party, they would be able to return the favor. He couldn't bear to part with this child.
He looked at Lin Jing for a long time before laughing, "Not bad, not bad at such a young age, you already have this kind of skill. Fine, you can rest assured that I will definitely help you with what I've promised. This is my phone number. Before your shop opens, just notify me."
As he spoke, Feng Yuqing took out a slip of paper and placed it on the table. He was about to leave when Lin Jing said, "Mr Feng, please wait a little longer. I still have something to say."
"What else do you want to say?" Feng Yuqing turned to Lin Jing and asked.
"About that, apart from the front of my shop and the goods inside, there is nothing else. Therefore, I will have to trouble you when the time comes …"
"Understood. I will get all the manpower for you. As for the relevant procedures, I'll handle them myself. Do you have any other questions?" Feng Yuqing said.
"It's gone, it's gone. Mr Feng, take care." Lin Jing was extremely satisfied. If he could hand these matters over to Feng Yuqing, it would be much easier for him. Moreover, there would also be fewer risks. As for the rest, he wasn't worried at all.
Not long after Feng Yuqing left, Jiang Qianxue returned with a faint smile on her face. Lin Jing asked, "Is there anything good that appeared in the painting area today? Are you that happy?"
"That's true. Today, a copy of Le Yuan was produced. Although it was copied, it has a divine body and is almost the same as an actual painting. The handwriting is simply like a painting, it's extremely beautiful." Jiang Qianxue said in satisfaction.
"Zhao Meng?" Lin Jing frowned. He seemed to have heard of this Song Yuan calligrapher's name before, but he couldn't recall where.
Seeing his puzzled look, Jiang Qianxue thought he didn't know who Zhao Meng was, so she pouted and said, "Zhao Meng was a great calligrapher during the Song and Yuan Dynasties, one of the top ten calligraphers in the country. He created the 'Body of Zhao' book, which is one of the four great families. "You usually read more books and understand more about this. Although you specialize in the arts and arts, you still need to know the basics."
He knew that Jiang Qianxue had misunderstood, but he didn't know how to explain it. He couldn't say something like, "I'm thinking that I seem to know where the calligraphy manual from Zhao Meng is located, and it might even be from me."
Thus, he could only put on an educated look and smile, "Alright, I got it. I'll read more."
"It's good that you know. Let me tell you, you have to work hard. If you keep acting like this, what will you do in the future?" Jiang Qianxue urged.
"Yes yes yes, you must be hungry. I'll go make you some food." Lin Jing's heart warmed. Recently, Jiang Qianxue had been paying more and more attention to him.
"No need, you're not feeling well, so don't cook. Just order takeout." As Jiang Qianxue spoke, she once again saw the wooden box on the table and the broken pieces of jade inside. She revealed a surprised expression and then asked, "Hey, who brought this? I don't remember having this in the shop?"
"This is nothing. Someone just came over and ran away after leaving this. I don't know what he did for now and it's not good stuff either. I'll pack it up and put it away. If that person comes again, we can just give it back to him." As Lin Jing spoke, he hastily put away the box.
Seeing his anxious expression, a trace of doubt flashed across Jiang Qianxue's face. However, she didn't pay too much attention to it. The broken pieces of jade had no value to begin with.
After putting the things away, Lin Jing walked out and saw Jiang Qianxue sitting in front of him on the phone. She had a conflicted expression on her face, and her heart skipped a beat. She walked over without saying a word and quietly waited for Jiang Qianxue to finish.
