"The price is negotiable,"
"Much appreciated."
Xiao Yu hung up and continued driving.
Sheng Shushu went to the antique shop that had just been put on the market; the owner hadn't left and was waiting for her in the store.
He was a man in his forties or fifties; as soon as he saw her, he shook her hand with a smile and couldn't stop thanking her. "I urgently need money, and this store has been on the market for a long time without selling. We are fated!"
"Otherwise, if Miss Sheng doesn't mind, may I invite you to dinner?"
Sheng Shushu waved her hand in refusal, "Thank you for your kindness, but we're just conducting a transaction, no thanks are needed."
She added, "Actually, I do have a question I'd like to ask the owner."
"Go ahead!"
She drew from memory, lowered the jade pendant, and showed the photo she had taken to the owner. "You've been in this business for so long, you should recognize this item, right?"
The owner thought for a while, "It does seem familiar."
