He had witnessed the great effect of Gu Ning’s pill before, so he could only turn to her for help.
Gu Ning also had the idea that there must be an evil antique in his store when she heard his complaint. She decided to go to the antique street right away.
When she arrived at Xiangyun Antique-store, she sensed Yin and her sight fell on a blue and white porcelain.
Chen Darong and other staff members indeed had a pale face. Gu Ning took out several power crystals at once, and told them to take it. After which, she walked to the shelf.
Chen Darong trusted Gu Ning, so he listened to her.
Because Chen Darong took it without hesitation, the other staff members followed him. In addition, Gu Ning was like a god in their eyes, so they were willing to obey her orders.
After taking the pill, they immediately felt much better. A short while later, their faces began to go back to normal.
The great effect amazed them. They were very curious about it, but didn’t ask anything.
At the same time, Gu Ning took the blue and white porcelain out. “How did you get this?”
Gu Ning didn’t give it to Chen Darong, so Chen Darong must have acquired it himself.
“An old man in rags came here a week ago, and he said that he needed money to treat his grandson. He didn’t ask a high price for it, so we took it,” Chen Darong said.
Hearing that, Gu Ning sensed that something must be wrong. Because this antique was evil, the old man couldn’t be healthy after staying with it for a long time.
Gu Ning didn’t want to think that the old man was a bad person, but she needed to be careful. Anyway, she decided to do an investigation. If it really was a coincidence, she wouldn’t think further about it, otherwise she wouldn’t let the old man get away with it.
“Let me see the surveillance videos,” Gu Ning said.
There were surveillance cameras in the store, and Gu Ning planned to watch the videos first before she asked K to investigate it.
Chen Darong played the videos for Gu Ning, and she took a photo of the old man, then sent it to K.
While waiting for the results from K, Gu Ning stayed at the street.
Gu Ning had prepared another batch of antiques on her way to Xiangyun Antique-store, so she wanted to put them on the shelves now.
Chen Darong was amazed when Gu Ning showed him those antiques. He was curious to know how Gu Ning managed to get so many antiques, but he understood that she didn’t want to talk about it.
Coincidentally, Gu Ning noticed that someone kept glancing at Xiangyun Antique-store and looked unkind after she stayed inside for a dozen minutes.
She found a place with a cover, then used her Jade Eyes.
The person was a man about 30, and he had a stand close to the Xiangyun Antique-store.
Gu Ning had a feeling that this man wasn’t kind. However, she found real antiques at his stand.
Although it wasn’t very valuable, Gu Ning wouldn’t miss it since it was real.
She told Gao Yi and Qiao Ya to wait in the store, then walked outside by herself.
Gu Ning didn’t know whether the man could recognize her, so she pretended to be a normal visitor.
“Miss, I can give you a discount if you want to buy anything,” the man said.
Gu Ning looked around for a while, and picked up a fake antique. “How much is this?”
“You have a great taste. This is….” The man began to brag about it, and Gu Ning listened to him in silence. “You can give me eighteen hundred yuan if you want it.”
“How about this one?” Gu Ning picked up another.
The man bragged about it again before he told the price.
The third time, Gu Ning picked up the real antique. “How much is this?”
The man lost patience this time and directly said, “Three thousand yuan.” He didn’t think that Gu Ning would really buy it, so he gave a high price.
“Great, I want this one.” Gu Ning nodded, then gave the man three thousand yuan.
The man was surprised. If he had known that earlier, he would have said a higher price!
The man definitely didn’t know that this antique was real, so he was willing to sell it at the price of three thousand yuan.
Since Gu Ning paid for it, he wouldn’t refuse to take her money. Afterwards, he counted the money and gave Gu Ning the antique.
Gu Ning then left with the real antique.
The man was too happy and he counted the money again, so he didn’t see that Gu Ning walked into the Xiangyun Antique-store. It was obvious that he didn’t know Gu Ning.
When Gu Ning came back with an antique in her hands, Chen Darong smiled.
“Boss, it must be real, right?”
“Yeah, it cost me three thousand yuan.” Gu Ning gave it to Chen Darong.
Chen Darong took it and had a look at it, then priced it at sixty thousand yuan.
In fact, the antiques in Xiangyun Antique-store were cheaper than those in other antique stores.
