Chapter 115: You Black Sheep of a Woman! You Think it’s Easy to Make Money?!

“Mom,” Qiao Nian pulled Qin Yongmei to the side and looked at the museum employee, “We are innocent and have nothing to hide . You can investigate . ”

She then gestured for the butler to hand over the set of Go .

When the man saw the sparkling Go box, he frowned in disgust .

But, he shoved back his disgust and did his job by inspecting the Go bowls and stones .

When he finished, Qin Yongmei hurried asked, “How did it go? It’s not the same set as the stolen one, right?”

The man shook his head, “No, it’s not . ”

Qin Yongmei and Qiao Nian both sighed in relief .

But before the air completely left their mouth, the man continued, “How can you compare this inferior junk of a product to a national treasure?”

His tone was unpleasant as if he was furious that they dirtied the national treasure’s name .

Qin Yongmei’s face immediately turned ugly, “How could you talk to us like this? This set I purchased is no less than a national treasure . It’s made out of the highest quality of jadeite . You cannot just say it’s junk!”

The man failed to contain himself and laughed out loud . The way his lips curled was somewhat taunting .

“High-quality jadeite? You think all of us are amateurs? These stones were heavily waxed that’s why they look shiny . They don’t even contain 0 . 1% of the worst quality jade . These are basically polished rocks . At most, these can be sold on the streets to scam people . I wouldn’t even buy this for 2,000RMB . ”

Qin Yongmei was dumbfounded, so was Qiao Nian .

Qiao Ziwen’s face dropped, “How much did you pay for this?”

Qin Yongmei slowly stuttered out, “Thirty… 30,000,000RMB . Not a cent more!”

Before Qiao Ziwen exploded in anger, Qin Yongmei quickly added, “That person must be lying! Why would they sell fake goods in a mall, inside a display? This product contains an anti-counterfeit receipt!”

The employee no longer had the patience to even fake a smile, “I have nothing against you, why would I lie? Plus, I am a qualified appraiser . I never make mistakes in my job . If you don’t believe me, you can take it to a specialized jade appraisal agency and check to see if these Go pieces are really made out of jadeite . ”

Then, he no longer felt the need to stay . He faced his group of people who tagged along and said, “Let’s go . ”

Qin Yongmei’s face looked like it was covered in grey dust . Qiao Zhizhuo and Meng Chunhua both looked rather displeased .

Qing Ziwen jumped out in anger, “You spent 30,000,000RMB to buy a counterfeit good! You black sheep of a woman! You think it’s easy to make money!?”

Qiao Nian quickly grabbed onto Qiao Ziwen, “Dad, don’t just yell at mom . We are not professionals . It can’t be helped that we got scammed . We will go back to the vendor we purchased this from later . Grandpa’s gathering isn’t over and you are already getting so angry . You’re putting on a show for everyone to watch!”

Even without her mentioning it, Qiao Ziwen could feel all the gazes on him .

“How do you have the audacity to talk on her behalf!” Qiao Ziwen didn’t say anything to Qiao Nian either, “Look at your cousin, now look at you . You and your mother have lost all my face!”

“Stop, stop!” Qiao Nian’s younger aunt, Qin Yonglan rushed up, “Niannian is right . They don’t study this stuff, it can’t be helped that they got scammed . After all, Niannian is only a high school student . No matter what gift she gets, she’d be spending the family money . On every exam, Niannian places in the top 3 at school and repays her grandpa using her excellent grades . I think that alone is more valuable than any gift . ”

She then looked over to Qiao Zhizhuo, “Don’t you think so, Elder Qiao?”
