Read The Ultimate Husband [by Skykissing wolf] Chapter 42 – The young lad who came from Lin City

was Leo White. Due to a family member suffering from c****r, he wished to sell off the family treasure for

money.

A few other store owners nearby were also there after hearing about it.

After Peter explained the background story to Yvonne, he introduced her, “This is our lady boss, Ms.

Yvonne.”

Leo nodded honestly and said, “If you as the lady boss is unable to decide, I will have to go to another

store.”

After saying that, he opened the box

In the box was a blood-colored jade pendant.

With an antique carving, the surface was round and moist. The most unique part was that there was

some red tear-like pattern inside.

Yvonne could not stop talking after she set her eyes on it. “Blood tear jade?”

The few other antique store owners took deep breaths and were all in awe.

“Hey, it’s really a blood tear jade.” “Look at the color, it’s top quality.”

The few antique store owners were chatting among each other, and were amazed. Leo felt proud and

nodded with pride to Yvonne. Then, he said, “You’ re really the lady boss. With just one look you can

identify that it is a blood tear jade. Did you see the word carvings on the surface? It belongs to the

Eastern Jin Dynasty.”

The blood tear jade was a type of an ancient jade. The blood jade was formed by mixing the blood of

ancestors. This particular kind of jade with a tear- like pattern inside, was known as the blood tear jade.

As such, it was extremely rare.

After hearing Leo’s words, all the other antique store owners became emotional.

“It’s really from the Eastern Jin Dynasty!”

“That’s right, look at the carving on the surface. It is definitely from that era.”

Yvonne asked Leo after admiring it for a moment, “ How much money do you want for it?”

Although that was the first time Yvonne had seen a blood tear jade, she had seen plenty of materials

about the blood jade. The one Leo had was the same as what she knew. Hence, Yvonne was very

certain it was a real blood tear jade.

Hearing the comments from the other few antique store owners, she was more confident with her

judgement.

However, the moment Yvonne asked Leo about the price, Darryl silently shook his head.

Others might not know about the blood jade, but Darryl was an expert. Darryl’s grandpa had one. He

used to play with it when he was little. Hence, at first sight, he knew Leo’s was a fake.

The young lad really had the guts to cheat the Young family.

Yvonne was still young and inexperienced. Thus, it was a given that she could not identify the scam.

However, even the other few antique store owners joined in? It seems like they were only carried along

in the conversation. It was humiliating indeed.

Thinking of that, Darryl had no intention of revealing the scam yet. He was just observing how things

progressed.

At that moment, Leo waved his hands and said, “100 million bucks!”

Yvonne nodded and bit her lips.

Half a year ago, in an auction, a similar blood tear jade from the East Jin Dynasty was sold for the price

of 150 million bucks. It seemed like Leo had done his research before coming to the store.

However, that was an auction, not a trade. They were not the same.

Yvonne smiled and spoke, looking at Leo, “Too expensive!”

Leo insisted, “This is the price. I will never sell it if not because I am desperate for money for my family ‘s

medical treatment. This was passed down from my ancestors.”

Hearing those words, Yvonne started to have doubts.

The other antique shop owners all felt a little complicated.

Yvonne was still too young.

A blood tear jade was something one could rarely get. It was definitely a gain if one could purchase it.

The Young family would not be short of the 100 million bucks.

At that moment, if it was not because of their financial position, the other antique shop owners would

have definitely fought to deal with Leo.

Right at that juncture, a middle-aged man, dressed in traditional Chinese costume, wearing a pair of

golden framed glasses, walked into the store.

Peter quickly walked toward him and greeted, “Hi Mister, what can I do for you?”

The middle-aged man smiled and said, “I am Jack I’ m here in Donghai City on a business trip. My

favorite hobby is collecting antique items. I heard about the famous Pearl Pavilion. Hence, I’m here to

look around.”

He also bragged, “I’m here to look for some good stuff. Price is not an issue as long as I like it.”

As his eyes landed on Leo’s blood tear jade, he was really excited and said, “Oh, isn’t this the red blood

jade that everyone was talking about?”

Leo replied, “Sure is!”

Seeing Jack could not resist and picked up the Jade, Leo quickly said, “Be careful! Do not break it!”

Jack laughed loudly, “Don’t you worry, compensate you if I break it.”

He then asked, “Little brother, does this jade belong to you? What’s the price?”

Leo rolled his eyes, stretched out z fingers and said, “5oo million bucks.”

Before he could finish, Jack patted his t***h and said, “Great! I’ll take it.”

At that moment, Leo glared at Yvonne with pride, as if he was saying, “See? I was offering no million

bucks and you hesitated. Do you regret it now since there was a wealthy man who doesn’t care about

the price tag?”

Yvonne felt nervous and said, “Mr. White, you have agreed to sell it to me just now. We have rules in the

antique business. We are still in negotiation. You cannot just sell to someone else.”

Yvonne was really nervous, the jade was worth too million bucks and Jack just wanted it without further

thought.

Yvonne hurriedly said, “150 million bucks, I’ll take it. Mr. White, didn’t you just say you were selling it to me for no million bucks? I’ll take it.”

Looking at this, Darryl could not but laugh in his heart.

Haha Leo and Jack were obviously partners and they were just acting.

He did not expect Yvonne to have believed it for real. Was it really true that a beautiful and s**y woman

was of low intellect?
