155: Connecting with Tingquan (Part 2)
The first floor basically consists of Chinese paintings and calligraphy, and Li Youqian randomly picked one to open, like opening a blind box.
"This is Master Wang Meng's 'Dwelling in the Fuchun Mountains'!
"It was auctioned for 400 million RMB back then!"
"This is Master Pan Tianshou's 'Eagle and Pine Tree' It was sold for 270 million RMB back then!"
"This is Master Zhang Daqian's 'Peach Blossom Spring', the transaction price back then..."
Ting Quan looked at them one by one, his eyes widening. This wasn't a Hall of Treasures; it was clearly a mountain of gold!
"President Qian, where did you get so many treasures in your home?"
"If I remember correctly, these treasures are either in the hands of major collectors at home and abroad."
"Or they were bought by mysterious tycoons. How are they all in your home?"
These items were too famous; any one of them could be traced online.
Not to mention someone like Ting Quan, who studies antiques; he could recognize them almost instantly.
As for whether they were fakes?
Given the strength Li Youqian had displayed, no one would even consider them fakes.
And even if they were fakes, no institution would dare to say they were fakes; they would all stamp them as genuine.
When strength reaches a certain level, the authenticity of an item no longer matters.
What matters is whose hands it is in.
"I'm not too sure either; this is my first time here."
Li Youqian already had some guesses in his mind that these items were probably gifts brought by others when they came to "visit."
"Young Clan Leader, the items on the first few floors are all small trinkets, not very valuable."
"The real treasures are on the eighth floor; those items can no longer be measured by money."
"Holy crap, the things I just saw combined are worth at least several billion, right? And these aren't valuable?"
"No, buddy, if you're going to brag like that, I can't take it anymore."
"Form a group, kill President Qian, steal the treasures!"
"Emmmm... exposing them so openly to the world, are you really not afraid of attracting criminals?"
"Criminals? They probably won't even get close before being shot full of holes."
"You don't think the things in those guards' hands are just sticks for burning, do you?"
"Although it was just a fleeting glance, I can confirm that they are guns."
"Shhh~ Don't mention such sensitive topics in the Douyin live stream."
Under normal circumstances, Douyin live streams do not allow the appearance of illegal equipment, such as firearms and ammunition, or machetes, etc.
But there are exceptions, such as official live streams, or someone like Li Youqian~
"I saw some brothers mention the things in the security guards' hands. Those are indeed guns, but they are toy guns."
"Our country strictly prohibits private gun ownership, and I, the streamer, am a law-abiding citizen."
Having it but not admitting it is equivalent to not having it.
He was here to show off on the live stream, not to cause social panic.
"Hehe~"
"Right, right, they're all toy guns, I have them at home too."
"Stop arguing, I sell toys, and what I just saw was clearly a simulated BB gun."
"Bullshit, that was clearly an airsoft gun!"
"Airsoft gun? I'll TM electric gun next!"
"Oh, those are just toy guns. As for the rest, those who know, know."
"The 'know-it-all' appeared again."
...
After touring several floors, Ting Quan was already numb with shock.
Any single item in here was beyond his reach.
"How about it, Quan Ge, is there any treasure you like?"
"I mean what I say, if you like it, I'll give it to you."
Hearing this sentence again, the excitement on Ting Quan's face had disappeared.
These things, he was afraid he would have the life to take them but not the life to keep them; these were deadly items.
"President Qian, the treasures here are too expensive; I, your younger brother, really don't dare to accept them."
"I, your younger brother, usually just like to play with ancient coins. These things that cost several small targets at every turn, I, your younger brother, can't handle them!"
These things, in Li Youqian's hands, were treasures.
In his hands, they were hot potatoes.
With so many people watching the live stream, it was inevitable that there would be some desperate criminals.
"Ancient coins? Butler Fu, are there any ancient coins in the Hall of Treasures?"
Li Youqian also understood Ting Quan's meaning and immediately asked Butler Fu, who was beside him.
"Replying to Young Clan Leader, there shouldn't be any."
"Ancient coins are not highly valuable; generally speaking, they shouldn't be able to enter the Hall of Treasures."
"Hahahaha, I'm dying of laughter, look at Ting Quan's expression."
"Not highly valuable~ So Ting Quan has been playing with 'junk' all along."
"Ting Quan is modifying his homepage overnight, hahahaha."
"Open the door, this sentence is really too straightforward!"
"Ting Quan: Listen to me say thank you, because of you, the four seasons are cold~"
"Tsk, things that ordinary people cherish as treasures are not even presentable in their eyes."
Ting Quan also gave a bitter smile after hearing this, but he also knew that what they said was the truth.
"If Young Clan Leader wants ancient coins, I have a box at my home, it seems to be called Qianlong Imperial Gold Coins, which I can give to this young friend."
Butler Fu thought for a moment and finally remembered the "small copper coins" gathering dust at his home.
"Qianlong Imperial Blessing Gold Coins!!!"
Ting Quan blurted out; these were the most expensive ancient coins in the world!
"Oh, right, right, that's the name."
"My granddaughter used to play with them as 'throw-toys,' but now that she's grown up, they're just left in a corner, unheeded."
Throw... throw-toys??
Ting Quan's eyes went dark when he heard this. Grandpa, you are my own grandpa!
Things worth tens of millions, and you let your granddaughter play with them as throw-toys?
"Esteemed elder, those are treasures worth over forty million! You let your precious granddaughter play with them as throw-toys?"
You can't be so wasteful!
"Forty million? Not very expensive."
"Children like to play, and as their grandfather, I naturally have to satisfy them."
Butler Fu said indifferently after hearing this. Forty million, that's just a drop in the bucket~
"How... how awesome of a throw-toy."
"The most expensive throw-toy in history has been born."
"Dying of laughter, the things Ting Quan yearned for are actually children's throw-toys."
"What are you laughing at? Even if it's considered a throw-toy, it's still forty million!"
"Exactly, while you're all laughing here, Ting Quan gained forty million."
"MD, that stings, I'm broken."
"Then thank you, Butler Fu, I will purchase it at market price."
When Li Youqian gives gifts, he can't possibly make Butler Fu pay.
Forty million is not a small sum; how much money could a butler have?
"The old man next to you is not Simple; he is much richer than you~"
"Have you heard of the Illuminati? This old man casually founded that club~"
Damn... he's that awesome?
Then why is he acting as a butler?
"Is there a possibility that the reason he's so awesome is because he's your family's head butler?"
"Or, he's already that awesome, but he can only be a head butler in your family?"
Emmm... System Bro makes sense, huh?
"No need, Young Clan Leader, it's nothing valuable anyway, I'll give it to you."
Hearing that Li Youqian wanted to give him money, Butler Fu quickly waved his hand to refuse.
It was just a box of ancient coins; they were just sitting there anyway, so it was better to give them to the Young Clan Leader to build good relations.
He also wanted to progress!
