Chapter 799 [799] Is your grandmother Empress Dowager Cixi?
Xu Jingxin nodded confidently, "Of course I am sure. If I can't sell it..."
Before she could finish her words, she suddenly heard a voice behind her, "Brother, do you want to sell your hairpin? I'm willing to pay 100,000 yuan for it."
When they looked back, they saw a Mercedes-Benz G parked on the side of the road. A man sitting in the driver's seat was looking at them with a smile.
The man was probably in his twenties and quite handsome, but he always gave people a sinister feeling when he smiled.
If it wasn't for the Pengcheng license plate on the front of the car, Xu Jingxin would really think that this guy was hired by Ye Feng. How could he be willing to spend 100,000 yuan to buy that hairpin? Is he stupid and rich?
But what surprised her was yet to come.
She originally thought that Ye Feng would agree without hesitation. After all, it was not easy to meet such a stupid buyer again.
But Ye Feng refused directly, "Sorry, I don't sell hairpins."
Xu Jingxin looked at him blankly, not knowing what he was thinking. It's already 100,000 yuan and he still hasn't sold it?
The man didn't seem surprised when he heard his refusal. He just grinned and said, "I really like this hairpin. Please name a price. As long as it's not too outrageous, I can accept it."
Ye Feng remained unmoved, "I'd better not open it. You can't afford it anyway."
The man still hadn't given up. "To be honest, the quality of your hairpin is very ordinary."
"The reason I wanted to buy it is because my grandma had an identical one before, but it accidentally broke, so I wanted to buy it back to make her happy."
"How about this, I'm willing to buy it for half a million, would you consider it?"
Hearing his words, Xu Jingxin was also moved by his filial piety, and the price offered by the other party was indeed not low. She immediately turned her head and looked at Ye Feng, "I think he is quite sincere, why don't we sell it to him? It can also be regarded as helping his grandmother fulfill her wish."
Ye Feng ignored her and stared at the man for a long while. "Your grandmother also has an identical hairpin? Then may I ask, is your grandmother Empress Dowager Cixi? Or is she the maidservant beside Empress Dowager Cixi?"
The young man obviously understood. He was still hoping for a lucky break, hoping that Ye Feng didn't see the origin of the hairpin and wanted to buy it at a low price.
Now that his identity was exposed by the other party, he did not continue to pester the other party. He just smiled faintly and drove away.
Seeing that Ye Feng made the man give up pestering her with just one sentence, Xu Jingxin became even more confused, "What... is going on? Why did he leave after hearing what you said?"
Ye Feng did not answer her question, but teased: "You just said that as long as this hairpin can be sold for more than 10,000 yuan, you will agree to any request of mine. You must keep your word."
Xu Jingxin blushed and immediately argued, "I said sell it, you sold it."
Ye Feng snorted, "I knew you would cheat. Do you want to know why I don't sell it?" Xu Jingxin nodded quickly. She was very curious. If she didn't solve the mystery today, she probably wouldn't be able to sleep at night.
Ye Feng did not answer her directly, but took a photo of the hairpin and sent it to Chen Qiushan.
Less than a minute later, a long voice message came from the other side.
"Damn, brother Ye, you are so awesome, aren't you? If I'm not mistaken, this is the hairpin that the old Buddha liked the most, right? Where did you get it? I wonder how you can always get such rare treasures. This hairpin must be auctioned in our auction house, and it is guaranteed to fetch a good price..."
He talked a lot in one breath, but Xu Jingxin still understood. This hairpin was actually worn by Empress Dowager Cixi? Its value is inestimable.
No wonder the man left in shame when he heard Ye Feng mention "Empress Dowager Cixi".
"That man is so despicable. I thought he really wanted to show filial piety to his grandmother, but I didn't expect him to be so shameless!"
She was so angry that her pretty face turned pale. She was kind-hearted at the time and advised Ye Feng to sell it for 500,000 yuan.
Fortunately, Ye Feng didn't listen to her, otherwise he would have suffered a great loss.
Although she didn't know the exact value of the hairpin, it would definitely not be just five hundred thousand.
For a moment, she was overwhelmed with shame.
Ye Feng then sent another voice message to Chen Qiushan, "Brother Chen, can you help me estimate the price first and see how much this hairpin can be sold for?"
Chen Qiushan quickly responded, "This hairpin has a very high historical value and is definitely a treasure. If I were to set a price, it would definitely be over 30 million..."
When Xu Jingxin heard this, she was stunned again.
Although she knew that this was a hairpin worn by Cixi and that its value must be high, she did not expect it to be so outrageously high.
"Ye Feng, I'm sorry. I was deceived by that man's sweet words just now. I even persuaded you to sell the hairpin to him. You won't blame me, right?"
Miss Xu usually looked intelligent and wise, but she suddenly admitted her mistake, which made Ye Feng laugh.
"Let's talk about what you just promised."
