Found 100 Million In My Rented Apartment

“Tsk, tsk, tsk. You can earn 100 to 200 million just by reselling it. Your auction house makes good money.” Ye Feng could not help but tease.

“Brother Ye, you’re a big businessman now. One or two hundred million is just pocket money in your eyes. By the way, why did you call me today?”

“It’s nothing serious. I just got a batch of goods. I think the quality is not bad. I wanted to ask if you’re interested.” Ye Feng said it very tactfully, in case he scared him.

“Brother Ye’s goods are always good. I’ll get the branch in Jiangzuo to send someone to contact you.”

“Is Sotheby’s so united and friendly now? There is a chance to make a fortune, but you give it to the people from other branches? Isn’t that too generous?”

“Hahaha, if you want to do big things, you have to open up a little. If our Nanyue branch is eating meat, we have to let our brothers and sisters have some soup. That way, it will be easier for us to carry out our work.” Chen Qiushan had just become the general manager of Sotheby’s Nanyue Province branch, and he already had the air of a big leader when he spoke.

“Alright then, but the number of antiques this time is quite large. You’d better find someone of a higher level. If his level is too low, I’m afraid he doesn’t have the authority.” Ye Feng kindly reminded him.

“Brother Ye, you’re thinking too much. If it’s a project worth a few hundred million, a small manager can make the decision.” Chen Qiushan thought that the goods he was going to sell this time would at most be a few hundred million, and it would not be more.

After all, he had only been in Jiangzuo for a few days.

To be able to get an antique worth a few hundred million was already a very high estimate.

But Ye Feng shook his head. “The number of antiques this time is not just a few hundred million.”

“More than a few hundred million?” Chen Qiushan was stunned. “Is it more than a billion?”

If that was really the case, he was a little reluctant to give it to his colleagues at the Jiangzuo branch.

After all, antiques worth more than a billion yuan could not only earn him a considerable commission but also increase his status in Sotheby’s to a certain extent.

This was a huge piece of cake.

But then, Ye Feng continued. “Open up your mind a little more.”.

“Could it be… Two billion? Brother Ye, are you kidding me? How many days have you been in Jiangzuo? You actually got two billion yuan worth of antiques?”

Chen Qiushan couldn’t sit still anymore.

If there was really two billion yuan worth of antiques, he would have to come personally to deal with them.

Letting Jiangzuo’s colleagues drink soup? Let them drink nothing.

“Sigh, I thought that after you became the general manager of Sotheby’s Nanyue branch, the situation would be bigger. Is that all?” Ye Feng did not hide his disdain.

“Two billion is not enough? I… Brother Ye, stop joking with me. How many goods do you have this time? Can you give me an accurate number?” Chen Qiushan’s words were already pleading, he couldn’t stand the torture anymore.

Ye Feng could not help but twitch his lips. “You shouldn’t be asking me how many goods I have, you should be asking how much appetite your Sotheby’s has. This time, I will have as much as you can eat.”

“Brother Ye, aren’t you being a little too arrogant? It’s not like you don’t know the strength of Sotheby’s. We are a global chain of international auction houses with a history of more than 250 years…”

“Stop, stop, stop. I don’t want to hear history from you. I just want to know how much you can eat at once.” Ye Feng was getting impatient.

“With Sotheby’s strength in China, it should be… Perhaps… Perhaps, it can buy 10 billion yuan worth of goods…”

“Alright, I’ll give you 10 billion yuan worth of goods. Contact the person in charge of Jiangzuo and ask him to come over to inspect the goods.”

“Plop…”

As soon as Ye Feng’s bold words left his mouth, a loud sound came from the other side, it sounded like someone’s butt had hit the ground.

After a while, Chen Qiushan’s voice sounded again. “Ye… Ye Ye…”

“Don’t be so polite. Why are you calling me grandfather? Just call me uncle.”

“Brother Ye, are you joking with me? Are you sure it’s worth 10 billion? 10 billion yuan?” Chen Qiushan was still unwilling to believe this fact and wanted to confirm it again.

“You still don’t believe me?” Ye Feng directly interrogated his soul.

“It’s precisely because I trust you too much that I’m confirming it with you again. If someone else had told me this, I would have thought that he was a liar and called the police.” Chen Qiushan didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

“Alright then, I’ll repeat myself. They are indeed antiques worth tens of billions, and they are all from the Warring States Period.”

“Alright, I’ll go to Jiangzuo personally.”

“You don’t have to come personally. Let your colleagues in Jiangzuo have some soup.”

“No, we can’t even let them drink soup. Who asked them to be so incompetent?”

“You can’t keep it to yourself like this. If you want to do something big, you have to be more open-minded with the situation.”

“To hell with the situation…”

Zhuang Xiaoqiao was dumbfounded.

Ye Feng’s phone call had sold off tens of billions worth of antiques.

In the blink of an eye, the pile of antiques was mostly dealt with.

It looked like she was losing.

After Ye Feng hung up the call with Chen Qiushan, he smiled at her. “How is it? Are you convinced?”

Zhuang Xiaoqiao bit her lip. She was already impressed, but she refused to admit defeat.

“You haven’t finished dealing with everything yet. Isn’t there a cauldron?” She raised her hand and pointed at the Yangzhou cauldron.

She knew that this cauldron was the hardest to deal with.

This was because a treasure of this level was no longer an antique. It had already been upgraded to the level of a national treasure.

Even Sotheby’s probably wouldn’t have the appetite to eat it.

Even if they had the strength, they probably didn’t have the guts.

This was because national treasures of this level were prohibited from being traded.

Once violated, they would be severely punished.

“I forgot about this guy.” Ye Feng walked over and picked up the bronze cauldron, he could not help but frown.

Zhuang Xiaoqiao was pleased with herself again. “I told you, you should just admit defeat.”

Ye Feng glared at her angrily. “Who said I admitted defeat? There’s always a way out. Haven’t you heard of it?”

“Then get rid of it.” Zhuang Xiaoqiao raised her chin at him provocatively.

At this moment, Ye Feng’s phone suddenly rang.

He picked it up and saw that it was Cheng Fei’er.

He couldn’t help but reveal a smile on his face. Someone really came to give him a pillow when he was sleepy.

He was just about to call her, but she called first.

“Hello, leader, do you have any instructions for me?”

“Pfft, who’s your leader?” Cheng Fei’er couldn’t help but laugh out loud when she heard this form of address.

“I’m also a member of the security team now. Of course, I have to call you the leader.”

“You’re a special expert of the security team. To be precise, you’re not an official member of the security team. Even if you were, I can’t lead you.”

“It’s okay. In any case, I already regard you as a leader in my heart.”
