As soon as he heard the voice, Charlie turned around to look for its source.He saw a young man wearing a white linen suit and a pair of black cloth shoes walking toward the stall. There were all sorts of bracelets on his hand, and as it was broad daylight and sunny, he was wearing an antique pair of gold-rimmed glasses with two round black lenses. The young man’s glasses looked like the type of glasses young children would wear during the Qing Dynasty in China.About four to five bodyguards were walking behind the young man, and compared to the young master, the bodyguards looked more fierce and evil, driving everyone around to move away quickly in order to avoid causing any trouble at the scene.“Oh, it’s Mr. Quinton!”The owner of the stall widened his eyes and started smiling as soon as he saw the young man. After that, flattering words came out of his mouth as though he was a tap with running water flowing from it. “Mr. Quinton, why didn’t you tell me in advance that you were

When everyone saw the arrogant expression on Mr. Quinton’s face, the surrounding crowd held their breaths because they were certain that Charlie would lose in this confrontation.However, Charlie had a calm expression on his face, and he smiled as he replied, “I think that this is not your first time participating in an antique trade. Do you have any idea what is the most important thing in the antique trade industry?”Mr. Quinton looked at Charlie with a cold expression on his face as he replied, “What?”Charlie laughed before answering, “Of course it is the rule governing antique trading!”After that, Charlie raised his voice slightly before he continued speaking. “In antique trades, it is always a first come first served basis. I came first, and I was the first person to buy this pebble. Therefore, this pebble belongs to me already. Even if you kneel before me and beg me to give it up to you, I will not give it to you, otherwise, I will be allowing you to break the rules today.

When Charlie saw how arrogant Mr. Quinton was, he sneered as he shook his head in disdain. “You can’t even tell the difference between a gourd and a jade plug? Haven’t you heard of the nine orifices or the jade plugs that were used on corpses?”“What do you mean by jade plugs and corpses?” Mr. Quinton asked with a confused expression on his face.Charlie sighed. “A child cannot be taught!” After that, he shook his head before saying, “You don’t even know this? Have you heard of the ‘Nine Aperture Jade’?”“What ‘Nine Aperture Jade’?” Mr. Quinton asked as he stared at Charlie with a blank expression on his face.Even though Mr. Quinton really enjoyed purchasing antiques, he had never spent any time studying any of his antiques at all. He would always buy whatever anyone said was good before going out to brag about his antique pieces.“Idiot!” Charlie sneered before he continued speaking. “The ‘Nine Aperture Jade’ consists of nine jade plugs that were used by people to plug the nine

The crowd believed Charlie and all of them really wanted to go home to check out the sports channel immediately.The expression on Mr. Quinton’s face was hideous right then, and after keeping silent for a short while, he finally regained his senses.This was embarrassing!The bodyguards he had hired and paid so much money for were all professional fighters that he had specifically recruited to protect him. Who would have expected…Who would have expected a young boy who came from nowhere to actually defeat all of these professional fighters, just by watching a television program?Mr. Quinton was not a professional fighter, and so, he did not know that Charlie was actually very skillful. However, his bodyguards were not stupid.They knew that he was an expert as soon as he laid hands on them.Even though Charlie was very humble, his moves were very deadly even when he did not use any strength at all.He was not someone they could easily defeat.Hence, the bodyguards did not ste

Graham was startled by Charlie’s words.His whole family would be ruined?Did he really have to pay such a huge price?Graham turned pale before he sighed and said, “I have never done any bad deeds in my life. I’ve tried to do good deeds and help the people in need every day. So, how did I end up in this state?”Charlie smiled before he asked, “Was this the reason why you wanted to buy that piece of topaz previously?”Graham nodded. In fact, he had already tried all sorts of different methods, but none of it seemed to work until he met Charlie.Previously, he thought that Charlie only knew how to appraise antiques, and so, he had not paid much attention to him.However, today, Charlie had actually pointed out the reason for their misfortunes without any hesitation. Now, Graham knew that Charlie was not an ordinary person at all. In fact, Charlie might be their only hope, and the fate of the Quinton family was in his hands.Graham quickly clasped his hands together as he pleaded
