The old man was stunned when he heard Huo Sining's words, thinking to himself, "Didn't that professor just say this bowl was only worth one hundred and twenty-three thousand? Now this girl is offering him one hundred and fifty thousand, could she be a fool?"
Professor Xie, however, understood what Huo Sining was thinking. From her perspective, there was no question of cheating in acquiring the old man's items, but to outsiders, it might look like taking advantage of someone in a vulnerable position.
The market value of the bowl might not be one hundred and fifty thousand, but the fact that Huo Sining was willing to pay such a price demonstrated that she didn't have any ill intentions just because the bowl's owner was an unsophisticated farmer. This made Professor Xie nod to himself in approval.
