Chapter 257


    When Jacob said this, everyone looked at him with an incredulous expression on their faces.


    ine asked Jacob in surprise, "Are you telling me that someone wants to spend three hundred


    thousand dors for this tattered thing? I don''t think that you''ll even be able to sell it for fifty dors!"


    2


    Jacob replied in a triumphant manner, "Why would I lie to you? If you don''t believe me, why don''t


    you take a look at my message history?" 1


    As soon as he said this, Jacob took out his cell phone before he opened his text message and


    clicked on a voice note sent to him by someone called Zachary.


    Zachary''s voice sounded over the phone at this time." Uncle Jacob, you''ve got a very good pen


    holder in your hands! I do think the pen holder is really from the Qing Dynasty! Why don’t you sell


    the pen holder to me instead? I''ll give you three hundred thousand dors for it!" 1


    ine was very surprised and she quickly said, "Oh m y god! You were telling us the truth! Jacob,


    you''re incredible. You bought the pen holder for five thousand dors but you actually sold it for


    three hundred thousand dors! If you do this a few more times, we''ll be rich!" 3


    Jacob hummed before he asked, “So, are you


    convinced now? Are you finally convinced?" "Yes, I''m absolutely convinced!" ine replied


    immediately. After all, ine had always been a fan of money. She would always support anyone


    who had money. As soon as she heard that Jacob had sold the pen holder for three hundred


    thousand dors, she quickly forgot everything that she had said and she simply smiled and said,


    "My husband is really amazing. I can''t believe that you actually have such incredible skills in antique


    trading! It seems as though Charlie is still the most useless one in this family." 9


    The expression on Charlie''s face changed immediately. What had this to do with him now? Had


    Jacob already forgot that he was the one who made the herbal pills that he sessfully sold the


    last time round? 3


    However, at this time, Charlie felt that he really had to look for an opportunity to ask Zachary who he


    was selling the pen holder to. What Zachary was doing was equivalent to giving his father-inw


    money for free! 2


    Jacob handed the pen holder over to Charlie with a look of excitement over his face as he said,


    "Charlie, please bring this with you to Antique Street tomorrow and help me pass this to Zachary.


    He said that he''ll prepare three hundred thousand dors in cash for you and you can bring the


    money home for me then."


    Charlie nodded immediately. "Okay, Dad."


    Jacob was very satisfied and he continued speaking," Charlie, you should apany me to more


    antique trades and events in the future. Perhaps if you keep following me, you will be able to


    develop an eye for antiques just like me. After that, we we’ll be able to make a fortune together!


    What do you think about that?"


    Charlie could only verbally agree but all that he was really thinking in his mind was all the trouble


    that Jacob had caused him in the past. How could Jacob actually have the audacity to ask him to


    learn from him? Has he forgotten all about the antique vase that h e broke in Vintage Deluxe? If


    Charlie had not been there with him at that time and if Charlie did not help him repair the antique


    vase, Jacob would have already been locked up in prison! How would he ever be able t o afford to


    pay for the antique vase?

    However, after thinking about it, Charlie felt that his father-inw was just like a young boy. He only


    wanted to do anything that he liked and that made him feel good about himself.


    Early the next morning, Jacob called Charlie eagerly and asked, "Charlie, can you go and look for


    Zachary already? I want you to pass the pen holder over to him as soon as possible so you can


    collect my money for m e!"


    Charlie nodded before he asked, "Dad, you are noting with me?"


    Jacob replied, "I''m going to attend an event hosted by the Calligraphy and Painting Association


    today.


    They''ve invited me to attend the meeting and a conference! After joining the conference, I''m certain


    that I''ll be invited to many internal auctions for paintings and calligraphy!"


    Charlie could only reply helplessly, "Okay then, I’ll go t o Antique Street to look for Zachary, then." i


    Since Jacob had already instructed him to do so, Charlie would head to Antique Street to look for


    Zachary. 4


    ire was also taking a break from work today and since she was feeling bored, she told Charlie,


    "I’ll go with you." i


    Charlie nodded and said, "Alright then, let''s drive your car there."


    ire replied, "I''m tired, I don’t feel like driving today.


    You can drive instead."
