Chapter 1595: The Person in Charge of the Seattle Shopping Center Has Appeared!
Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Ye Feng walked to the front of the exhibit that was highlighted by the navigation system.
It was a very exquisite glass display case.
Thick bulletproof glass was installed all around.
After the female attendant came over, she realized that Ye Feng might be interested in this item, so she immediately introduced it. “Sir, you have good taste.”
“This handwritten copy of the Bible was the bedside book of the previous Pope in the Vatican. The legendary Pope spent decades of painstaking effort, studying the annotations every day, and finally created such a manuscript.”
“Although it isn’t as valuable as the few famous Bibles in history, it was once auctioned at a high price of 1.79 million dollars. Even the top appraisers at Sotheby’s headquarters commented that its value in the future will be immeasurable!”
“If you buy it, you can treat it as a family heirloom and pass it down from generation to generation, enjoying its appreciation…”
Ye Feng did not have any reaction when he heard this.
However, Zhuang Xiaoqiao, who was at the side, had a strange look in her eyes, she could not help but whisper to Ye Feng in Chinese. “Why do the staff here look like they are from real estate sales?”
“When I saw how good their temperaments were just now, I thought they were going to walk on the high-end path.”
“I didn’t expect that the moment they opened their mouths, it’s like I was with a real estate sales department back home.”
Ye Feng smiled. “Don’t worry about these details.”
“Let’s just focus on the collection itself.”
“This thing is indeed very valuable.”
As he spoke, he turned to look at the beautiful staff member. “This is it.”
“I like this kind of cultural thing.”
The beautiful staff member was originally still introducing or promoting her products.
When she heard Ye Feng say that he wanted to get this, she did not react in time, she was still talking non-stop.
It was only after a moment that her brain came back to its senses and she was stunned.
Then, she hurriedly nodded and bowed. “Yes, sir.”
“I’ll contact the supervisor now and help you handle the relevant procedures.”
“Please wait a moment!”
Ye Feng did not waste any time, he nodded at her and pulled Zhuang Xiaoqiao along to continue wandering around.
Zhuang Xiaoqiao was very surprised. “Wait, are you really going to buy that?”
“The price tag of that thing is 1.5 million dollars. That’s about 10 million yuan!”
“Do you have any special feelings for things like the Bible? I don’t understand. Although that foreign beauty praised this thing so much just now, I can tell that this manuscript of the Bible is only produced by an unknown Pope in the Vatican. In terms of collection value, it’s not too great…”
Ye Feng looked at her. “Children shouldn’t ask so much about adult matters.”
“Besides, you’ve been with me for so long. When have you ever seen me suffer a loss in antique collection?”
“Put your heart back into your stomach.”
When Zhuang Xiaoqiao heard this, she probably felt that it made sense and immediately stopped asking.
But after a moment of silence, she suddenly realized something, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on. “Stinky Ye Feng, who are you calling a kid?”
“Which eye of yours saw me as small?”
“You’re the one who’s small!”
Ye Feng did not say much, he only used his eyes to glance at her not-too-outstanding feminine features.
It was not harmful, but extremely insulting.
Zhuang Xiaoqiao was annoyed.
She grabbed Ye Feng’s hand and said angrily. “I’m not small at all.”
“I just have a small frame and am petite. I don’t like to be noticed by creepy men, so I deliberately wrapped myself up!”
“If you don’t believe me, you can try!”
Ye Feng quickly broke free, he looked around. “This is not worth trying.”
“It’s in public.”
Zhuang Xiaoqiao was still fuming. “I’m not young anyway!”
“Don’t treat me like a child in the future.”
“Otherwise, I’ll bite you to death!”
As she said that, she even flashed her canine teeth at Ye Feng.
“Alright, alright, alright. You’re not young.” Ye Feng stopped teasing her. “I won’t call you a child anymore.”
“Let’s continue picking out stuff from the collection.”
“Humph!” Zhuang Xiaoqiao finally stopped and turned her gaze to the many collections in the shopping center in Seattle. “There are also antiques and cultural relics from China. Let’s go over there and take a look.”
“Maybe we can bring back some precious cultural relics that have been lost from our country.”
Ye Feng was using the navigation system.
The navigation showed that there were indeed a few items in the direction Zhuang Xiaoqiao was pointing. They were worth more than the price listed, so he followed her over.
Then, after scanning all the items and confirming that there was a relatively large margin between the purchase price and the sale price, he directly called over the beautiful staff member from earlier. “Zhang Daqian’s calligraphy and painting, Qi Baishi’s painting, the deep-sea luminous pearl, that rare book of ‘Twenty-Four Histories’… Help me take them out.”
“I want them all.”
At this moment, the beautiful staff member was probably stunned again.
She started to stutter. “Sir, are you, are you sure?”
“With all these things added up, the total price is more than 30 million dollars.”
“Moreover, we only support full-payment transactions. We don’t accept any credit or installments.”
Even the guests who were choosing and viewing nearby looked over.
This was the effect that Ye Feng wanted.
Seeing that she was not speaking clearly, he smiled. “Madam, in China, your questioning method is tantamount to questioning the customer.”
“S-Sorry, sir! I’m just too surprised. I don’t have any other intentions!” The beautiful staff member must have been frightened when she heard this. She quickly bowed and apologized.
Then, she said quickly, “I’ll contact the supervisor and ask her to come over and help you with the relevant procedures.”
“Please enter the VIP lounge area. I’ll get someone to prepare some drinks and snacks for you.”
“Please wait a moment.”
As she said that, she brought Ye Feng and Zhuang Xiaoqiao to an extremely luxurious resting area and quickly reported to her superior.
…
As Ye Feng expected.
Not long after the two of them sat in the lounge area and tasted the exquisite coffee and snacks, a commotion came from outside.
“Oh my god, it’s President Davis, the person-in-charge of our Seattle shopping center!”
“He actually came this time!”
“He must have heard that there’s a foreign tycoon in our collection area and specially came over to greet him, right? In the past, every time some customers spent a lot of money in the shopping center, it seemed that the Seattle shopping center would pay special attention to retain such high-quality customers!”
“He’s definitely here for that spendthrift young foreigner!”
“…”
After that, a smiling figure in a suit and leather shoes, who looked rather chubby, led a group of people to Ye Feng and Zhuang Xiaoqiao’s lounge.
