The Hidden Heiress Is a Secret Big Shot
Chapter 318 - 318 318 Elder Pei Liu Vomits Blood from AngerChapter 318: Chapter 318 Elder Pei Liu Vomits Blood from Anger Chapter 318: Chapter 318 Elder Pei Liu Vomits Blood from Anger Yu Chen maintained a straight face and spoke earnestly.
“The monk never tells a lie, and the authentic items just happen to be in the monk’s possession.”
Everyone was stupefied!
Yu Chen blinked innocently, looking at Elder Pei Liu.
“The monk doesn’t understand how it happens that the items Elder Pei Liu happens to sell are exactly what the monk has. Could it be… you had an eye on the monk’s possessions long ago?”
Having said that, everyone suddenly saw the light!
Of course! Master Yu Chen surely wouldn’t lie. Who is he? A revered monk from Longshan Temple, if anyone lied it wouldn’t be Master Yu Chen!
Shen Shaojia’s mouth twitched.
“Master Yu Chen… Aren’t you talking nonsense?”
Qingwu shrugged her shoulders.
“The monk always feels that as long as everyone believes he is not lying, then what he says is the truth. The path of cultivation lies in the mind, not in moral conduct – being lenient towards oneself and strict towards others has always been the monk’s principle.”
“I’ve learned something new, worthy of Master Yu Chen, truly a life coach indeed!”
Shen Shaojia was astounded by Yu Chen’s philosophy.
Elder Pei Liu felt a dark line run down his forehead, thinking that his life had become rather bizarre!
“Master Yu Chen, what do you mean by this?”
Yu Chen chanted a Buddhist mantra.
“Amitabha! The monk does not understand why the benefactor needs to do this. Today, Ms. Shen invited the monk for an authentication of cultural relics, but it seems there is no need to examine them anymore.”
“Indeed, they are all fakes.”
“Such a big fuss, the monk thought there might be some good items. Maybe Elder Pei Liu thought they were good? That would indeed show a lack of worldly experience.”
Almost as soon as Yu Chen uttered a word, Elder Pei Liu felt like spitting out a mouthful of blood.
The crowd looked at each other in dismay!
They didn’t come here to buy fakes to take home!
Shen Boyi sneered: “Elder Pei Liu, what a grand capability you have, it must not have been easy to round us all up indeed.”
Elder Xuan said: “I told you to bring out that bracelet of yours to sell and make some money. Instead, you force me, an old man, to expose that everything here is fake.”
Pei Jue spoke calmly: “I remember that auction houses selling fakes are required to compensate half of the transaction price, right?”
Elder Pei Liu’s fingers trembled!
“Since when has this rule been instituted?”
Pei Jue replied lightly.
“Just now, Qingwu suggested it to me, and I thought it was a good idea, so I’m preparing to propose this rule in collaboration with President Shen. I wonder what everyone thinks?”
Those present were all shrewd, and knowing that Elder Pei Liu’s items were fakes, they were unexpectedly furious!
“Since Chairman Pei and President Shen have spoken, we have no objections!”
“Support, this is what reforming the auction industry should entail.”
Elder Xuan followed with a smile.
“The Xuan Family fully supports this as well. Everyone knows our family is in this business, and if anyone tries to disgrace themselves with fakes in the future, it would also be wasting everyone’s time.”
With Elder Xuan and Pei Jue speaking up and the Shen Family strongly supporting it, the crowd nodded in agreement, angrily staring at Elder Pei Liu!
“Compensate the money!”
Elder Pei Liu, looking at the smile on Pei Jue’s face, felt bitterness and suffocation in his heart!
Now he understood why Pei Jue was so generous just now, raising the bidding price without hesitation; it turned out that he had already made his plan!
The money needed to compensate Pei Jue alone was enough to bankrupt Elder Pei Liu.
Not to mention Qingwu had also bought many items, Elder Pei Liu could already foresee all the money on him possibly ending up in the Pei and Shen families’ pockets!
Are this engaged couple devils?! They teamed up to swindle his money, is this really appropriate!
Elder Xuan spoke calmly, “Is the bracelet still for sale?”
Elder Pei Liu was so angry!
But thinking about selling the bracelet now, he could still recoup some of his costs; if he didn’t sell, he would lose even more money.
Elder Pei Liu gritted his teeth, “Sell!”
The Jade Bracelet, which should have been auctioned last, was brought forward early and placed in front of the stage.
“This bracelet, a top-quality Glass Species treasure, was the beloved favorite of Mrs. Pei. Today, with great pain, we part with it, starting at ten million!”
Mrs. Pei Senior raised her eyelids, “One million, sell it or not.”
Elder Pei Liu had personally experienced Mrs. Pei Senior’s bargaining skills.
Every time Mrs. Pei Senior made an offer, she never cared about Elder Pei Liu’s well-being at all!
With her bidding, everyone there knew that the bracelet was something coveted by both the Pei Family and the Xuan Family, and there was no point in competing with Mrs. Pei Senior for the item.
One by one, they all gleefully chimed in to support her.
“Elder Pei Liu, hurry up, if you sell now you can still break even. If you don’t, there won’t be such a shop after passing this village.”
Mrs. Pei Senior said indifferently, “Think it over. Even if you walk out this door, if you want to sell this bracelet, no one would dare want it other than me.”
Elder Pei Liu felt as if all his internal organs were in pain!
“Alright, alright, one million it is!”
Elder Xuan got up cheerfully, handed a card to Elder Pei Liu, “Exactly one million inside, just swipe it and it’s done.”
Even fools could see this was all a ploy to trick Elder Pei Liu!
“You… you really are too bullying!”
Pei Jue stood up, looking at Elder Pei Liu.
“Uncle Liu, remember to direct the compensation to our account, and send my share to Qingwu, as the items I’ve bid on are all meant to be gifts for her.”
He looked around the room, his smile light as a breeze.
“Originally, I intended to purchase some items to please my fiancée; never imagined that the antique Qingwu liked would actually all be fakes. Fortunately, Master Yu Chen says he has the real deal and was also planning an auction, so the Pei Family kindly invites everyone to move to the next event.”
“Master Yu Chen’s starting bid for all items will be fifty percent less than Uncle Liu’s!”
Master Yu Chen resembled a transcendent sage, his hands clasped together.
“Amitabha, this poor monk doesn’t seek profit. These are all worldly possessions, I hope all the benefactors enjoy themselves. These affairs will be handled by Chairman Pei and Ms. Shen, let’s meet again.”
After finishing his words, he turned and left, exuding an aura of Buddhism that made others dare not look directly at him.
Shen Shaojia was nearly dying from laughter.
These items, which had cost Yu Chen nothing, were of course of no concern to him!
With this maneuver, everyone felt Master Yu Chen truly lived up to his reputation as a master, indeed extraordinary and detached from worldly matters.
The Pei Family inadvertently promoted the new auction, even using Master Yu Chen’s name, providing a free advertisement.
The effort of sending out invitations to the guests was even spared, as the guests present could be directly invited to attend!
The professional appraisal team took a glance at the antiques on site.
Tian Ji spoke with a smile, “Our side has received a commission from Master Yu Lan, to report the sale of counterfeit goods in your name, damaging Master Yu Lan’s reputation, and we need to sue you!”
Even the Jade carvings were fake!
Elder Pei Liu’s corner of the mouth twitched.
“These Jade carvings were purchased at a high price from Mr. Ye Qilan, they can’t possibly be fakes!”
Tian Ji took out an electronic contract.
Emblazoned on it was Yu Lan’s signature and a seal.
“This contract can be authenticated. We also have a video commission from Master Yu Lan. Whatever sources you bought from is none of our concern, but we need to tell you very seriously and responsibly, you’ve been swindled.”
“I’m afraid that Mr. Ye Qilan saw you as an easy mark!”
Elder Pei Liu looked at the seal, and then at the flawless Jade carvings. He simply couldn’t bear to believe that these items were fake.
But the seal was indeed authentic; Master Yu Lan’s seal is particularly unique and can be imitated by no one!
Elder Pei Liu spit out a mouthful of fresh blood and completely passed out on the spot!
