Casually, Bai Wu habitually opened Che Xiaoxiao's social media feed.

The first post.

"This post is hidden from all relatives! Oh no, oh no, oh no, friends, it's an emergency! Last night, to play PUBG earlier, I accidentally put my grandpa's favorite Tri-Color Camel Figurine on the shelf, and someone bought it for two hundred bucks!"

Below the text, there were nine pictures.

Hmm...

Eight of them were selfies in various poses!

The one in the center was the photo of the Tri-Color Camel Figurine.

"She has some nerve, selling a million-dollar antique for two hundred bucks, and still has time to take eight selfies for her feed..."

Bai Wu quipped, then quickly shook his head: "No, no, I think I should leave this place of trouble quickly. I have a feeling something bad will happen if I stay too long!"

100%!

Seeing the sudden appearance of the 100% percentage, Bai Wu didn't hesitate and hurriedly left the Ancient Charm Pavilion.

He weaved through the streets.

Just as he reached the entrance of the free trading market, a familiar shout reached his ears.

Bai Wu turned his head and saw the familiar figure of the Fat Boss.

Bai Wu's eyes lit up, and he walked over, greeting, "Hello, Boss Wang!"

"Young Man!"

Stolen from its original source, this story is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings.

The Fat Boss had a face full of awkward smiles and hope, and he asked, "Those seven porcelain pieces I just sold you, do you still have them?"

"There's still six; I sold one while wandering around the market!" Bai Wu looked 'puzzled,' "What's up with those porcelain pieces, Boss Wang?"

"Nothing, nothing..."

The Fat Boss gave Bai Wu a deep look, then asked, "Young Man, do you know who you sold that porcelain to, and for how much?"

"I sold it to Che Yongkang at the Ancient Charm Pavilion!"

Bai Wu suddenly grinned and grabbed the Fat Boss's hand, saying, "Actually, I really have to thank you, Boss Wang. If you hadn't told me about the origins of those seven porcelain pieces, possibly being Tang Tri-Color Pottery, I wouldn't have decided to go to the Ancient Charm Pavilion, and I wouldn't have sold it for a good price!"

The Fat Boss swallowed hard, his eyes wide, trembling as he asked, "Y-young man, how much did you sell it for?"

Bai Wu 'honestly' scratched his head and casually said, "Just nine million!"

As soon as he finished speaking.

The Fat Boss's eyes widened like a pair of large ox eyes.

Then.

His whole body trembled.

He staggered back two steps.

As if struck by lightning.

"Nine, nine, nine... nine million..."

The Fat Boss's eyes lost focus, and he suddenly lost all his dreams, feeling utterly deflated!

"Yeah!"

Bai Wu nodded seriously, "It was nine million. Old Gentleman Che directly transferred it to me, so I have to say, it's all thanks to you, Boss Wang. If you hadn't strongly invited me to check out your goods, I wouldn't have become a millionaire overnight!"

Hearing Bai Wu's words, the Fat Boss couldn't help but cover his left side.

His face turned as black as charcoal.

Regret gnawed at him.

"Boss Wang, rest assured, I will definitely visit your stall again in the future! My parents always told me never to forget my roots. It's you, Boss Wang, who made me who I am today. I will always remember your kindness!"

Bai Wu, full of determination and 'honesty,' patted the Fat Boss's shoulder and continued, "Ah, Boss Wang, let's not talk about it anymore. I'm planning to take advantage of the nice weather to visit the car dealership and buy a car for fun! I'm off!"

"Take care..." The Fat Boss said with a bitter face.

"Old Wang~~~"

The owner of Stall No. 1 suddenly patted the Fat Boss's shoulder and said, "Next time you bring goods back from the countryside, remember to notify me first. Give me a chance to strike it rich too!"

The Fat Boss's face grew even darker.

...

At this moment.

Inside the Ancient Charm Pavilion.

Che Xiaoxiao was cautiously observing everyone in the trading hall.

She seemed to be trying to find the young man who, according to the Fat Boss, had spent fifty thousand to buy the Tri-Color Camel Figurine.

Just then.

Che Yongkang cheerfully came down from upstairs, and with an inadvertent glance, he noticed Che Xiaoxiao in the hall.

"Xiaoxiao, Xiaoxiao!"

Che Yongkang waved and called out to his granddaughter, Che Xiaoxiao.

"Oh no!"

Hearing Che Yongkang's call, Che Xiaoxiao immediately tensed up: "No, no! Absolutely not! Grandpa must not find out. Che Xiaoxiao, act natural, you can do it!"

Che Xiaoxiao mentally prepared herself, turned to look at Che Yongkang, and smiled naturally, "Grandpa!"

"Xiaoxiao, how come you have time to visit Grandpa today?" Che Yongkang's face was full of kindness.

"Um, well, this, that..."

Che Xiaoxiao was organizing her words, thinking about how to brush off Che Yongkang.

At this moment, Che Yongkang spoke again, "Xiaoxiao, come up, Grandpa just acquired something good!"

"Acquired something good..."

Che Xiaoxiao was stunned, and for some reason, an ominous premonition arose.

"No, no, it can't be, it can't be!"

Che Xiaoxiao quickly shook her head and followed Che Yongkang upstairs.

"Grandpa, what good thing is it?" Che Xiaoxiao asked, shrinking her head.

"You'll see in a moment!" Che Yongkang smiled broadly, "This thing cost your grandpa nine million!"

"Nine million, could it be..."

Che Xiaoxiao felt something was about to go wrong.

They arrived at the top floor.

Che Yongkang entered a long string of codes, opened the safe, and then took out a delicate agarwood box.

Then.

Under Che Xiaoxiao's despairing gaze, Che Yongkang slowly opened the lid of the box.

A delicate Tri-Color Camel Figurine appeared before the two of them.
