Ye Feng could not be bothered to read the content. He only saw that the name was Wu Changshuo.
During this period of time, he had also learned a lot about the antique world.
He knew that Wu Changshuo was a modern calligrapher. His works were also very popular in the antique market. It was said that the highest price was 4 to 5 million yuan.
“Old mister? This calligraphy should have been written by a Chinese calligrapher, right? Have you been to China?” He looked at the old man without batting an eyelid.
The old man’s eyes lit up when he heard the words ‘China’. “I’ve been there when I was young. I brought this calligraphy back.”
Ye Feng stared at him. “When you were young? Were you going to China to do business?”
“Business? Haha…” The old man turned to look at him, his gaze suddenly sharp. “I’m going to kill someone.”
His gaze was a little scary. Ye Feng was fine, but Xia Qiu who was beside him was so scared that she took a step back.
Ye Feng quickly helped her up, then stared at the old man. “When did you go to China?”
The old man’s face revealed a slightly evil smile, as if he was recalling his glorious days. “Eighty-five years ago, I followed the army and set foot on the land of China for the first time…
Ye Feng and Xia Qiu’s expressions changed at the same time.
Everyone in China knew what happened next.
That was the eternal pain in the hearts of all Chinese people.
Xia Qiu couldn’t hide the hatred in her eyes and was about to speak.
But Ye Feng beat her to it, he asked: “Then have you ever repented about what you did when you were young?”
“Repent? Why should I repent?” The old man turned his head to look at him, his expression a little agitated. “Everything we do is for the country.”
“It’s all thanks to us that you can enjoy the prosperity of Japan today. Why should we repent?”
Ye Feng sneered. “You are doing this for your own country, but why are you transferring the disaster to someone else’s country? What’s the difference between this and a beast?”
“Humans are beasts,” the old man said matter-of-factly. “Without the law, humans are crueler than beasts.’
“In this world, only the strong deserve to live. It’s a kind of luck that the weak can survive, not a necessity.”
Ye Feng suppressed the turmoil in his heart and let out a breath of air.
“Alright, let’s not talk about this anymore, let’s talk about business.”
“l quite like this courtyard. How much do you want?”
The old man stared at him for a long time before he suddenly shook his head. “I’m not selling it.”
Ye Feng frowned. “Why?”
“Because I don’t like you and don’t want you to live in my courtyard. Is this reason okay?” The old man stared at him unhappily.
“Of course. This courtyard is yours. If you don’t want to sell it, no one can force you.” As Ye Feng spoke, he suddenly walked in front of the calligraphy. “Since you are not willing to sell the courtyard, what about this calligraphy? I like it too. Name your price.”
“Are there still young people in Japan who like these things?” The old man was surprised.
“Everyone has their own preferences. 1 usually like to collect some calligraphy and paintings. I just don’t know if you’re willing to part with them?” He continued to stare at the old man.
“As far as 1 know, this calligrapher’s paintings are not cheap. If you want them, you can take them for 10 million Japanese dollars.” The old man immediately quoted a price.
Ye Feng calculated, 10 million Japanese dollars was equivalent to 500,000 Chinese dollars.
“Alright, I’ll buy it.” He nodded in agreement.
Xia Qiu’s eyes widened.
Ye Feng did not spend too much money on the items he bought previously. This was the biggest expense he had today.
Even the old man was a little stunned. He had casually made a bid and was waiting for the other party to bargain. He did not expect this young man to agree so quickly.
“Are you really willing to spend 10 million Japanese dollars to buy this calligraphy?” He was afraid that the other party did not hear him clearly, so he repeated himself.
“Yes.” Ye Feng gave an affirmative answer.
“Why?” The old man was still puzzled.
“As for the reason, I can only tell you after the deal is done.” Ye Feng deliberately kept them in suspense.
The old man frowned and pondered for a moment. In the end, he nodded. “Sure.”
Both parties immediately signed the transaction contract and pressed their fingerprints.
Ye Feng also transferred 10 million Japanese dollars to him on the spot. This transaction was considered completed.
“Can you tell me the reason now?” The old man still hadn’t forgotten about this matter.
Ye Feng smiled lightly, he turned around, and took the words down from the wall. “Do you have scissors at home?”
The old man pushed the wheelchair to a cabinet, pulled open the drawer, and took out a pair of scissors. “What do you want scissors for?”
Ye Feng did not answer him immediately. After taking the scissors, he pierced through the word and lightly cut it.
This piece of calligraphy that cost 10 million Japanese coins was destroyed by him with a single cut.
“You… What are you doing?” The old man was shocked.
Even Xia Qiu was shocked. How could someone squander like this? The words that were bought with more than 500,000 Chinese dollars were actually so ruined?
Ye Feng did not reply. He tore the word apart.
The old man focused his eyes and found that there was a painting hidden in the middle of the words.
It was a landscape painting. He couldn’t tell what it was, but he noticed the signature of the painting – Tang Yin!
“Tang Yin? Tang Yin? Could it be…”
Xia Qiu did not react at first. She repeated it twice in a low voice and suddenly realized something. She was stunned.
Tang Bohu, this is actually Tang Bohu’s painting?
“Who is Tang Yin? Is he very famous?”
The old man was obviously not familiar with this famous scholar in China and immediately asked.
Ye Feng took out the landscape painting in the middle layer and admired it with satisfaction. “Tang Yin is a great talent in China. He can be said to be a household name in China. Especially his works, which have been very popular in the antique market these years. There was once a painting called ‘Waterfall View on Mount Lushan’ that was sold for a sky-high price of 3.6 billion Chinese dollars.’
The old man was so shocked that he couldn’t speak. After a long while, he recovered. “3.6 billion Chinese dollars. This is unbelievable. Does that mean that this painting is also priceless?”
Ye Feng nodded without any hesitation. “Although this painting is not comparable to the painting ‘Waterfall View on Mount Lushan’, it is still a rare masterpiece, at least its value… 300 million Chinese dollars. It’s about 5 to 6 billion Japanese dollars.”
When the old man heard this, he hurriedly covered his heart with a painful expression.
“5 to 6 billion? You… You actually tricked me?”
Although he was almost a hundred years old, he still valued money very much.
When this painting had just been sold for 10 million Japanese dollars, he felt that he had made a killing.
He didn’t expect this young man to make a net profit of 50 to 60 times with a single cut. This was hard for him to accept.
But so what if he didn’t accept it? The contract had been signed and the money had been transferred. Even if he brought the lawsuit to court, it would be useless..
