Although Jin Buhuan was not financially well-off, he always maintained his backbone. No matter how good-tempered he is, he can't help but get angry when he is accused of being a softie. Although he would not attack a woman easily, she was really annoying.

Only women and villains are hard to raise. A gentleman talks but doesn't do anything. Just when Jin Buhuan was about to retaliate, suddenly an Audi A8 with a military license plate drove up and surrounded the three of them, trying to hold back what he wanted to say. Went back.

A determined young man jumped out of the car, and immediately after, three more people got out of the car. Among them, two bodyguard-looking people were guarding a sixty-year-old man.

Jin Buhuan felt that the old man's face seemed familiar, but he could not recall when and where he had seen this person in a short period of time.

"Xiao Xin, Xiao Cong, you came so early. You are so beautifully dressed today. You will definitely be the focus of the audience tonight!"

The young man waved to Qin Kexin and Qin Zong from a distance, and quickly approached them.

"Brother Zhiyuan, long time no see. Why did you come here so late!" Qin Kexin greeted him enthusiastically and took the young man's arm.

Qin Cong just nodded slightly in response, his attitude was lukewarm.

The young man smiled gracefully and said, "Isn't it because I came here late because I wanted to choose a gift for grandpa that he likes?"

"The gift carefully prepared by Brother Zhiyuan must be priceless. Can I let my little sister take a look first? I'm really looking forward to it."

Qin Kexin said longingly.

"This is a secret and cannot be revealed in advance. When the time comes, it will surely amaze everyone. Grandpa will like it very much!"

Qin Zhiyuan glanced at Qin Zong, showing an even more proud expression, with a hint of sarcasm in his words: "I have always been curious, what gift will little sister Xiao Zong give to grandpa? You know, grandpa's favorite person is usually you!"

"It's definitely better than yours. Grandpa will definitely like it." Qin Xong said lightly.

At this time, Jin Buhuan had understood the subtle relationship between them. Qin Xong is even more favored by Mr. Qin, which makes her cousins ​​obviously jealous of her. Qin Xong also has her own arrogance, and she doesn't take these cousins ​​seriously.

"Yeah, let's wait and see and we'll find out then."

Qin Zhiyuan sneered.

At this time, Qin Zhiyuan also noticed Jin Buhuan, who had remained silent.

"Xiao Zong, is this your new boyfriend?"

Qin Zhiyuan said with a smile: "Originally, I was hesitant about what you just said. But after seeing the boyfriend you chose, I am more confident in my vision. With your vision of choosing a boyfriend, it is not difficult for me to imagine your gift The taste won’t be any better!”

Qin Xian ignored his sarcasm, but when he heard that Jin Buhuan was his boyfriend, he blushed and said, "He is not my boyfriend yet. He is a treasure appraiser, and his ability to appraise treasures is second to none. It's amazing!"

"Treasure appraiser? So young?"

Qin Zhiyuan glanced at Qin Cong with suspicion, and couldn't help but said: "Xiao Cong, don't be fooled. I know a lot of antique people, and they are among the best in Jiangnan City, such as this one around me Mr. Kong Youxuan is an expert in treasure appraisal and he was once an expert at our Jiangnan Museum!"

"It turned out to be him!"

Jin Buhuan woke up from a dream. No wonder he felt that this middle-aged man looked familiar. He had often seen his treasure appraisal programs on TV before.

Jin Buhuan took the initiative to say hello with a humble attitude. However, Kong Youxuan just glanced at him coldly, snorted coldly, and then sneered: "Are you considered a master treasure appraiser? How come I have never seen you before. Where do you work? Which old gentleman do you study under?"

Seeing the cold attitude of the other party, Jin Buhuan immediately put away his smile and thought to himself: "You have no interest in me, why should I bother myself and put my hot face on your cold ass."

Then he said calmly and modestly: "Miss Qin is too praised. I am just an ordinary person and cannot bear the title of master."

Jin Buhuan was just being modest and polite, but Kong Youxuan sneered unceremoniously and said: "I think so too. If we can become masters and experts at a young age, then wouldn't it look like those of us who have become experts after years of accumulation and hard work? It’s worthless!”

"Nowadays, scammers are posing as experts and ruining the image of experts. It's not just someone who comes out and says a few words and is an expert!"

Qin Zhiyuan and others burst into laughter.

Seeing Jin Buhuan being laughed at in public, Qin Xiang said angrily: "Master Kong, do you know that Jin Buhuan could spot the Song Dynasty Mu family's descending dragon tree at a glance from dozens of meters away at the auction the day before yesterday! How could you laugh at him like this? "

"What did you say!"

Kong Youxuan said in surprise: "Are you the one who discovered the Mu family's dragon-subduing wood from the Song Dynasty at Paulina Auction House? I heard that even the experts there couldn't identify it. It's really eye-opening!" The Mu family's dragon-subduing wood from the Song Dynasty The incident caused a stir on the Internet, and Kong Youxuan naturally heard about it.

Looking at Jin Buhuan's young face, he couldn't help but have doubts in his heart. I thought: "Those senior treasure appraisers at the Paulina Auction House failed to see through the mystery of the Mu family's Dragon Subduing Wood in the Song Dynasty. How could this young man identify it at a glance from dozens of meters away? Those praises on the Internet , maybe it’s just publicity and hype!”

Qin Xian couldn't understand Kong Youxuan's thoughts. He silently observed Kong Youxuan, thinking that Jin Buhuan's deeds of appraising treasures had deeply shocked him. He was secretly proud in his heart, and did not want to have too much contact with Qin Zhiyuan and others, so he said to Jin Buhuan: "Let's go in quickly, so as not to keep grandpa waiting for a long time." ”

Jin Buhuan didn't bother to pay attention to these people and followed Qin Zong away.

After the two left, Qin Zhiyuan turned to Master Kong, his tone full of curiosity: "Master Kong, is this country bumpkin quite famous in the appraisal world?"

"It's just a false name. It's all self-promotion and hype. Compared with me, your status is worthless!"

Kong Youxuan said mockingly.

Qin Zhiyuan had a flash of inspiration, "This is simply a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"



The Qin family is a well-known wealthy family in Jiangnan City. This time for Mr. Qin's 90th birthday, it can be said that he has invited all the celebrities in Jiangnan City. The scene is so spectacular that it is really breathtaking!

"The gold is not exchanged. It will take a while before the birthday banquet starts. You can stroll around by yourself first, and I'll go say hello to grandpa." Qin Xong waved his hand, then turned and left.

Jin Buhuan stepped into this kind of gathering for the first time and felt unfamiliar and at a loss for everything around him. He could only sit quietly, smiling bitterly in his heart. If it weren't for repaying Qin Xong's favor, he would rather choose to enjoy the quietness alone rather than spend it in such a noisy occasion. Even if the delicacies of mountains and seas were placed in front of him, they could not arouse his interest.

After a long wait, the birthday banquet finally started. Mr. Qin was accompanied by Qin Xong and walked into the hall together. Suddenly, applause echoed like thunder in the hall. Mr. Qin enjoyed a legendary experience in Jiangnan City. He started his own business in middle age and started from scratch. In just a few decades, he successfully established the Qinhe Group, a business empire worth hundreds of billions. Jin Buhuan had read about Mr. Qin in the economic newspapers. Report, the legendary experience is admirable.
