Chapter 276: Gritting His Teeth

While Liang Shishi was speaking, Lin Feng left the table and walked outside the restaurant.

Some things are not suitable to say in front of Zhao Xiaoyang.

"As soon as I came back, I felt Yanjing was so cold……"

With a resentful tone, Lin Feng felt she wasn't cold in body, but cold in heart.

He thought it wasn't his fault; the two of them just weren't on the same path.

Lin Feng wanted to conduct his business openly and aboveboard.

Liang Shishi only wanted him to go through the back door.

"Where?"

After Liang Shishi expressed her feelings about Yanjing's weather, she asked.

Lin Feng replied: "I just returned to Yanjing, though it's a bit far from the city center."

"My neck and waist are sore again for some reason; come over and give Auntie a massage."

"I'll come over tonight!"

Lin Feng knew he couldn't refuse.

"Okay, I'll have the kitchen make you some seafood!"

After Liang Shishi finished speaking, she hung up the phone.

With that last remark, her tone was very cheerful.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, Tang Mi arrived with a motorcade.

He brought a total of twenty-five people.

Several dozen vehicles were parked at the warehouse's big door.

Lin Feng opened the door of the black Audi that Tang Mi was driving and sat in the passenger seat.

"I've brought the people; they're all individuals our Tang Family has trained since childhood, absolutely reliable. Now can you tell me what the cargo is?"

Tang Mi looked at Lin Feng with a curious expression.

"We unearthed a Southern Song treasure……"

Lin Feng did not say where the treasure was found.

He merely gave a brief description of what was inside those treasure chests.

"Let me go take a look!"

After Lin Feng finished speaking, Tang Mi immediately got out of the car.

Zhao Xiaoyang took the keys and opened the warehouse door.

Only two hours had passed when a strong paint smell hit them.

It was the smell emanating from the crates.

Because many of the crates had been made only recently.

"All the items are in these crates; number each crate and organize the contents inside……"

After Tang Mi gave the instructions, he waved his hand and said, "Let's get to work!"

The two of them immediately put on gloves and opened the crates one by one.

There were gold ingots, big and small silver sycee, various gold and silver jewelry, bracelets, a small amount of porcelain, ancient books, calligraphy and paintings, etc.

Due to their age, everything lacked luster.

But everyone was knowledgeable; at a glance they knew these were treasures.

They first took the items out of the crates, placed them by category, then wrote the item names in a notebook and noted their estimated values afterward.

After some time, it took over two hours to sort out just a few crates of things.

It was getting late, so Lin Feng had everyone stop.

Lin Feng looked over their notes and had a clear idea of the treasure's value in his mind.

Those folk gold and silver ornaments were the least valuable.

Valued directly by their gold/silver content and weight, the cheaper ones were a few thousand, the more expensive ones several hundred thousand.

Next came the gold ingots and silver sycee.

The most valuable were a few antique porcelain pieces and several ink works left by members of the Song imperial family.

If this batch of treasure were sold outright, it could fetch around three billion US dollars.

Of course, this is just an estimate.

Those calligraphy and painting antiques, when auctioned, could be estimated at tens of millions and possibly sell for hundreds of millions.

Based on the estimate, increase by percent.

If the Chuánguó Yùxǐ is genuine, then the value of this treasure……would be fifteen billion US dollars!

Although it took great effort, just the money spent was nearly two hundred million US dollars, but the gain was enormous.

The matter of the Chuánguó Yùxǐ is not something Tang Mi's subordinate company can handle.

Because it requires examination by authoritative persons and institutions.

Only when everyone acknowledges it as genuine and there is little controversy can Lin Feng stamp it and make money.

As for how these warehouse items are to be sold, Lin Feng no longer cares.

Tang Mi's subordinate companies have shipping channels.

It was getting late, so Tang Mi drove the car to send Lin Feng home.

"What about Ouyang Moli?"

Lin Feng asked casually.

Tang Mi, gripping the steering wheel, glanced at Lin Feng with some dissatisfaction and said, "You're missing her, huh?"

Lin Feng chuckled, "Just asking casually."

Tang Mi pursed her lips and said, "She's afraid of the cold, she's got the air conditioning on at home!"

Moreover...

She blinked again, "I didn't tell her you were back."

She's quite sharp, guarding against her roommate like against a thief.

Tang Mi drove the car for a distance, then stopped.

Lin Feng still had something to do in the evening.

So Tang Mi could only have Lin Feng keep her company eating at a roadside stall.

Although it doesn't fill the stomach much, occasionally having such a fast-paced meal is quite interesting.

At 7:30 p. m., Lin Feng then drove his Knight into Liang Shishi's villa.

In the upstairs living room, Liang Shishi had already turned on the heating.

She wore a black long dress, barefoot on the thick carpet.

Holding a glass of red wine, she stood by the window watching the snowflakes drifting down from the sky, leisurely.

Lin Feng, after taking a shower, walked in wearing a robe.

Looking at Liang Shishi at that moment, Lin Feng noticed his aunt was becoming more and more like a noble lady.

On the dining table was a dinner specially prepared for Lin Feng.

Seeing Lin Feng enter, Liang Shishi drew the curtains and turned off the living room lights.

Then she used a lighter to light the candles placed on the dining table.

"Every time I dine here, there's a sense of ritual."

Lin Feng, sitting at the dining table, was also infected by this atmosphere.

"Are you going to the company's annual meeting tomorrow?"

Liang Shishi asked.

Lin Feng shook his head, "I originally wanted to go and have a look, but I've been too tired lately, so I'm not going."

"There's word that Zhao Yuwan is your person?"

Liang Shishi frowned slightly and said.

Lin Feng firmly shook his head and said, "Don't say that; everyone is free, not yours or mine! I simply appreciate her acting."

Liang Shishi didn't believe Lin Feng's explanation at all!

Given Lin Feng's nature of not acting unless he sees a rabbit, it would be strange if Zhao Yuwan didn't pay some price!

Lin Feng asked, "You called me over today, surely not just for these matters?"

"Of course!"

Liang Shishi smiled slightly and said, "You'll find out later, let's eat!"

Lin Feng felt doubtful in his heart.

While eating, he occasionally glanced up at Liang Shishi.

He always felt that something was up.

Suddenly...

"Yah~"

Liang Shishi exclaimed, "The fork fell on the floor!"

Again!

Lin Feng looked helpless.

He was about to go pick it up himself, but Liang Shishi waved her hand and said, "I'll do it myself!"

At nine o'clock, Lin Feng drove away from the villa.

The Knight's huge body would occasionally surge forward a distance, then slow down.

This is what fits the Knight's style.

It has a sort of reckless, collision-prone air, as if an accident could happen at any moment.

The surrounding vehicles, seeing this, all kept their distance from this big guy.

Lin Feng, driving the car, had a grim, teeth-clenched expression.

What happened, to make Lin Feng feel so awful!?
