Chereads / Rise of a Pauper Son-In-Law / Chapter 87 - Chapter 87

Chapter 87 - Chapter 87

.....

Update: Some slight changes to "Nine Heavenly Profound Sutra" will be change to "Nine Heavenly Profound Manual". Since it is more like a manual for instead of a sutra where monks use it to recite like chanting holy word.

.....

Seeing Ao Dong's arrogance, the surrounding crowd held their breath, thinking that this Ma Wen dared to confront Ao Dong, this is such a big loss.

Ma Wen still had a calm face and smiled: "I think you are also in the antique industry. Have you ever thought about what is most particular about the antique industry?"

Ao Dong asked coldly, "What is the most important thing?"

Ma Wen laughed and said, "Of course the most peculiar thing is the rules!"

After that, he raise his volume and say loudly: "Antiques are first-come, first-served, and I am here first. Who else will do business with you in this industry tomorrow? When that happens, Mr. Ao Dong, you will become a rat crossing the street, and everyone will scream!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Ao Dong was stunned, and a flash of anger flashes across his face.

There is indeed such a rule in the antique world. He claims to play as an elegant scholar, naturally he is very clear about this rule.

If today's incident spreads, the store he usually deals with will probably retreat for fear of offending other customers.

Ao Dong didn't expect that Ma Wen would stop himself from coming to the stage with a few words!

He stared at Ma Wen fiercely, really wanting to kick that face.

But he still swallowed his anger forcibly, gritted his teeth, and said, "Do you really think that you are worthy of your rock? I just want you to know that antiques are not accessible to everyone. You are a poor ghost, you should go home as soon as possible to dig a hole and hide in it as not to shame the people around you!"

After speaking, Ao Dong rolled up his sleeves with a dark face, and raised his arms to Ma Wen's eyes and shook: "Open your dog's eyes and see clearly! This bracelet of blood jade is cost $1.5 million from Lingnan. I got it without blinking! Have you seen such a good thing?"

The bracelet on Ao Dong's wrist was crystal clear, while red and shiny under the sun, and it was so beautiful that everyone around him opened their eyes.

Liang De Lan stared at the bracelet, swallowing fiercely, "I'm shocked, what a good thing!"

"Humph! Of course!" Ao Dong was very proud of everyone's reaction.

After that, he glanced at Ma Wen contemptuously, opened his collar, and pulled out a gourd-shaped jade piece tied around his neck: "Look at this again!"

"This piece of chalcedony is a coming-of-age ceremony gift given from the emperor of the Sui Dynasty. Eighty-eight high-ranking monks set up an altar to consecrate the Buddha and recite the sutra for 108 days! It is worth three million!"

Upon hearing the price that this piece of gourd chalcedony was so big, the crowd craned their necks to watch.

Liang De Lan flapped his nose with excitement as if being slapped, his eyes sight were straight at the jade gourd, his eyes starring greedily, and he wanted to swallow it into his stomach.

Ao Dong held the jade gourd and sneered at Ma Wen: "Poor ghost just need to watch, rich people plays with jade. You are a poor man, and you can't even afford some decent clothes. Yet you want to buy antiques. It really makes people laugh out loud."

His tone was ironic, and the surrounding crowd looked at Ma Wen from time to time.

Indeed, Ma Wen didn't look like a wealthy family. He wore the most common white T-shirt, jeans, and a pair of sneakers, just like a young working man.

As for Ao Dong's outfit, it seems ordinary, but anyone who knows the style, this set of clothes is expensive and it is completely handmade. Its costs at least six figures from head to toe.

Ma Wen looked at Ao Dong with a smug look and felt that this man was fucking funny, but in fact, he was not a wicked person, at best he was a silly young master who was short-sighted.

So Ma Wen looked at him and asked with a smile: "You are rich, aren't you? Look at your bracelet, it looks really good, but it's a fake."

Ao Dong was taken aback for a moment, and suddenly roared, "You are talking nonsense! My bracelet can't be fake!"

"If you don't believe me, ask the bosses in the antique shops around you."

Ma Wen shrugged and said: "If you have money to play antiques, you also have to look at who is playing with antiques. If a blind person has to get in the antique circle, he doesn't know how to pretend to understand, in the eyes of others. He is just a fat sheep, nothing more."

Ao Dong was full of irritation. Hearing that Ma Wen was mocking his ignorance, he sternly said: "If my bracelet is genuine, you will kneel down and admit it to me on the spot, how about it?!"

"Okay." Ma Wen agreed, with an extremely relaxed attitude, "Using of artificial bloodstone as blood jade, I can only say that you are really talented."

Ao Dong was ridiculed by him, his face flushed, he turned his head fiercely and said to the crowd watching the whole scene.

"Boss De Lan and Boss Li, you two will appraise me to see if this bracelet is true or not."

The two people named by him suddenly showed embarrassment and looked at each other.

Appraisal of antiques, whether they are true or fake, it will be offensive either two of them, and it might offend their colleagues as well.

"Ao Dong, we both have limited knowledge, we really can't appraise it."

Ao Dong said angrily: "Don't think I don't know what yours goal is. You two will give me a good appraisal, no matter it is genuine or not, you will not trouble me! But if you fool around, I will find someone else to appraise it afterward. I will not spare you for telling lies."

"Don't be angry, Mr. Ao Dong!"

The two came forward in shock.

No one dared to offend Mr. Ao Dong when doing business in Antique Street.

Therefore, the two antique shop owners had to bite the bullet and take a look at the jade bracelet.

A few minutes later, one of the bosses gave a shuddering dry smile: "Ao Dong, that little brother is right, your bracelets…"

"Say!" Ao Dong sneered coldly.

The boss was frightened and said quickly, "Your bracelet is indeed artificial bloodstone, not jade."

As soon as his voice fell, Ao Dong's face turned green, bloodshot, and flushed quickly, as if being slapped in public.

His throat swallowed fiercely as if to be angry.

The two bosses were so frightened that they drew back into the crowd, not daring to appear again.

Ma Wen smiled and said, "Do you believe it now? Buying a bunch of artificial stones for $1.5 million, Mr. Ao Dong is indeed rich."

"This time I missed you!" Ao Dong gritted his teeth and said, "Isn't it just one and a half millions? Do you think I lack the money? Even if my bracelets are fake, my jade gourd is always real, absolutely genuine!"

For this jade gourd, Ao Dong is 100% confident!

Because he did find an expert to appraise it, this gourd is indeed a good ancient jade, and it is in the Sui Dynasty!

Ma Wen snorted coldly: "If you can wear such a big evil thing as a treasure, I'm afraid there will be no second fool like you in the world!"

"What are you talking about? Don't speak nonsense!"

Ao Dong roared sharply, and the blue veins on his forehead protruded.

Ma Wen said faintly: "You are wearing such a fierce thing next to your skin. You are lucky if you haven't died yet."

Ao Dong's face was ugly, but with the lessons learned just now, he was not sure whether Ma Wen's words were true or false. He stared and asked, "Why do you say that?"

"Look at the shape of this jade gourd!"

Ma Wen said coldly: "Did you not check it when you received the jade? What exactly do jade pieces of this shape do?"

Ao Dong yelled with some confidence: "Isn't this the Sui Emperor's coming-of-age ceremony gift? The gourd represents auspiciousness, and everyone who deals in jade knows this. I know this better than you poor ghost! You know what bullshit?!"

Seeing Ao Dong's hard mouth, Ma Wen shook his head and sneered disdainfully: "You don't even know the difference between a gourd and a jade plug? The old saying goes, "Gold and jade are plug in the nine orifices, and the dead will be immortal." You should know this sentence right?

"What kind of golden jade and dead people?" Ao Dong was confused.

Ma Wen's face was "You really can't teach a child with advance education", so he shook his head helplessly and said, "You don't know this? Have you heard of nine aperture jade?"

"What nine aperture jade?" Ao Dong was even more confused, looking at Ma Wen blankly.

Although Ao Dong likes antiques, he doesn't have the mind to study at all, which he only buys what others say is good, and then goes out and pretends to be right.

"Idiot…"

Ma Wen sight: "Nine aperture jade is the jade plug used by the dead to plug the nine orifices. There are nine orifices which is two eyes, two nostrils, two ears, one mouth, plus the genital pores and excretory holes.

"Fuck!!" Ao Dong opened his mouth wide, his eyes rounded.

He glanced at the jade hanging around his neck in disbelief, and the hair on his back suddenly stood up.

Is this from a dead person?

Ma Wen said mockingly: "It seems that you really don't understand. This in your hand is used by a dead person to plug the excretory holes, which is the cylinder door. You even wear it on your neck, don't you feel smelly?"

Ao Dong couldn't speak anymore, staring at the jade gourd in his hand, suddenly a strong feeling of nausea surged.

This jade gourd was actually stuffed in that place!

Screaming in his heart: "And I actually took it as a mascot and hung it around my neck for three years!"

"The most damned thing is that I like this jade plug so much, I often play with it in my mouth!"

"Doesn't this mean that I indirectly ate the ancestor's filth?"

"Belch!"

Ao Dong couldn't help it anymore, bending down and retching.

The crowd who were still scrambling to watch, now cast a mocking look at him.

Some even gloated at the misfortune, and mocking Ao Dong for being blind, and spending a lot of money to buy such a bad thing.

Ma Wen said coldly: "Also, this jade piece has been soaked in corpse qi for a long time, and it has sucked enough of evil aura. If you continue to wear it, you will surely die within a year."

As soon as he finished his words, the crowd around Ao Dong immediately hulled back, for fear of being contaminated by the ferocity on his body.

Liang De Lan, who was standing beside Ao Dong, also ran to the very edge.

Although he is a half-bucket of water, and he usually does nothing but deceives, but he has also dealt with the master before, hence he knows that Ma Wen's words are not groundless!

Ao Dong was also frightened and looked up at Ma Wen in a daze.

Ma Wen's face was cold, and he snorted: "Are you having a bad fortune this year? Have you had a bloody disaster like a car accident or something?"

Ao Dong stared at Ma Wen blankly, completely stunned.

He did have a bad fortune this year, and he had just had a car accident at the beginning of the year. If it hadn't been for the crash resistant Hummer that day, he would have given his life a long time ago.

However, the driver who drove was killed on the spot. As for him, he broke two ribs and spent half a month in the hospital before returning home.

Ao Dong burst into a cold sweat, pulled the jade piece off his neck, waved around and threw it far away.

The crowd backed away quickly, for fear of causing trouble to their body.

Seeing Ao Dong's guilty conscience, Ma Wen sneered in his heart. If he hadn't reminded him today, if Ao Dong continued to wear it, he would definitely die this year.

"Who are you?!" Ao Dong gritted his teeth and glared at Ma Wen.

This person knows too much, is it someone sent by the enemy?

"I am someone you can't afford."
