Chapter 58 Tricking

Wang Ke, who was laughing coldly in his heart, deliberately put on an angry look. His eyes, which seemed to be able to kill, stared deadly at Xu Jingkai and shouted angrily, "Bullsh*t, this is the magic weapon I saw first. When I came here just now, you weren't even here. How can you say that you observed it long ago? You're just saying nonsense. By the way, you said that your family also runs a business of antiques and magic weapons. Then don't you know the rules of this field? Or are you provoking me?"

Xu Jingkai felt unimaginably happy when he saw Wang Ke's angry appearance. It was like drinking a glass of icy beer on a hot summer day, which made him so refreshed that he felt comfortable from head to toe.

With a disdainful look on his face, Xu Jingkai said smugly, "Of course I know the rules of antique and magic weapon trading, but how can you prove that you saw this first? Did you negotiate a price with the owner? Did you grab this magic weapon first? Look, open your eyes and see. Who got it first? Who looks like he's bargaining? I know you can fight and I know you're fierce, but you can't just rely on your fist-fighting skills to settle everything, right?"

He laughed wickedly before he turned his head to look at the stall owner. He said loudly, "Sir, don't be so stingy. It's your luck that I am interested in your stuff. Now hurry up and name your price. Don't think that you can trick me with a high price just because someone also wants to buy this thing. Just offer me an honest price or I'll make your reputation stink in this antique trading market and you won't have a foothold here."

The stall owner was also a cunning person who had been running a business for a long time. He simply did not care for Xu Jingkai's threat. However, he still had a bright smile on his face as he glanced at the antique in Xu Jingkai's hand. He hesitated for a moment before saying loudly, "Since you have said so, if I am still not willing to sell it to you, then I am really too unappreciative. As you can see, this is the only magic weapon in my stall and also the best in my collection. Therefore, the price is one hundred and fifty thousand yuan, non-negotiable. If you're not satisfied, I won't deal with you. I think this dude beside you must also really like this magic weapon."

One hundred and fifty thousand yuan?

Xu Jingkai silently calculated in his heart. With his understanding of magic weapons, one hundred and fifty thousand yuan was not expensive. Maybe the magic weapon in his hands worthed less than one hundred and fifty thousand yuan, but he did not care about it even if he might lose several thousand yuan. He was extremely glad that he could beat down Wang Ke!

Or maybe the price of this magic weapon was even higher. It was possible to sell it for up to two hundred thousand yuan. Even though he wouldn't make a fortune, it was not bad.

"OK. Since you have given me such an honest price, it would be my fault if I bargain further. One hundred and fifty thousand yuan it is. Wait a moment. I will call my employees to send the money over." Xu Jingkai said with a big smile. After saying that, he also glanced at Wang Ke with a contemptuous look, looking extremely arrogant.

Wang Ke laughed in his heart. This i***t was actually willing to spend one hundred and fifty thousand yuan for such garbage just to provoke him. Its price would be only a few hundred yuan at most. It could even be bought at dozens of yuan.

"How horrifying it is to be ignorant!"

Wang Ke secretly sighed in his heart. At the same time, he made up his mind that he must earnestly follow Zhao Menfeng to learn about antiques and magic weapons. In this way, even if his extraordinary vision suddenly disappeared in the future, he would be able to rely on his real skills to not be tricked by others.

Wang Ke who deliberately pretended to be angry glared at Xu Jingkai viciously. He grabbed five or six items from the stall rashly, even without looking at them. He shouted angrily at the stall owner, "I'll take all these. Tell me the price. I don't believe that I can't even find one magic weapon among them."

The stall owner was overly happy. He was fully grateful to Wang Ke. If it weren't for this young man, he wouldn't know that he had a magic weapon in his stall!

It was as if one hundred and fifty thousand yuan had just popped out from nowhere.

With a cheerful mind, he did not plan to earn too much money from Wang Ke. After all, he had brought him immensely good luck. Besides, he also noticed that when Wang Ke grabbed the items, he didn't even look at them much. This was enough to show that what he took wasn't anything valuable.

After contemplating for a while, the stall owner smiled and said, "Dude, I am really sorry about what happened before. Since you asked me to offer a price, I will offer you an honest price. You took a total of six pieces of antiques. It'll be five hundred yuan each, so the price in total is three thousand yuan."

Wang Ke was pretty satisfied with the stall owner's offer. After all, among the six items he picked up, there was the rusty copper bell magic weapon that he was interested in.

"OK, I'm in a bad mood today, so I must find a magic weapon. Sir, I'll take them at three thousand yuan. Here's your money!" After saying that, Wang Ke quickly counted out three thousand yuan in cash from his wallet and paid the stall owner on the spot.

The stall owner was extremely happy to see that Wang Ke paid so willingly. Thinking that he would be a fool to let go of a chance to make money, he personally helped Wang Ke to wrap up the six items with a bright smile. Seeing that Wang Ke left angrily, he shouted, "Look forward to seeing you more in the future".

Wang Ke felt very good that he found an undervalued treasure and tricked Xu Jingkai.

He carried six black bags and randomly found a stall on the next street. After selling the other items for five hundred yuan, he then smilingly considered to whom he should sell this magic weapon in his hand.

Originally, he already had a good candidate in mind. That was Mr. Zhao, Zhao Menfeng, at Self House. However, he had not seen Mr. Zhao selling any magic weapon since he came to his store, which made him hesitant. Finally, he decided not to sell this magic weapon to Mr. Zhao because it would only add to his burden as he had not sold any piece for so long.

Strolling along the Curio Street, Wang Ke suddenly frowned because he keenly sensed that someone seemed to be following him.

Without a trace, he turned into a street corner and quickly scanned the way he came. Very easily, he spotted that Xu Jingkai who had just been tricked was sneaking behind him.

"This d*mn bug! If I find another opportunity, I must teach him another lesson myself." Wang Ke thought with hatred in his heart.

A few minutes later, Wang Ke stopped outside a*****e called "Fuxuan Hall" on the Curio Street. The store was located in a very good location and the front was decorated in a very grandiose way. The inside was even more magnificent, so it was obviously a relatively large store.

He stepped inside Fuxuan Hall. As soon as he entered the grand hall, a beautiful woman greeted him with a smile. With much respect, the beautiful woman smiled and said, "Hello, I'm an employee here. May I ask whether you are here to sell antiques or magic weapons? Or are you just looking around?"

Wang Ke raised the black bags in his hand and smiled, "I have a deal. I want to talk to someone who is in charge of your store. Can you ask your boss, or the manager to come out for a meeting?"

The beautiful woman was surprised. She glanced at Wang Ke up and down. Although Wang Ke was dressed casually, even in cheap clothes, she felt a special aura around him. Keeping her smile, the beautiful woman nodded and said, "Shall I have your name please, sir?"

Wang Ke said, "My last name is Wang."

The beautiful woman nodded and said, "Mr. Wang, please wait for a moment. I'll go ask for instructions."

Wang Ke nodded slightly. He stared at the beautiful woman's back for a few seconds before looking to other places. Upon entering this store, he felt this Fuxuan Hall was filled with strong spiritual energy. The concentration of the spiritual energy here was definitely ten times thicker than what he had felt at the Self House.

In other words, the number of magic weapons in Fuxuan Hall also definitely exceeds that of Self House by more than ten times.

"No wonder it is a big store! The storage is really sufficient." Wang Ke secretly praised in his heart.

Turning his head towards the outside of Fuxuan Hall, Wang Ke found that Xu Jingkai was wandering outside, carrying a black bag. He felt very funny and even had a vicious thought that if Xu Jingkai also came in and yelled to sell a magic weapon like him, how pathetic would he be?

He would be ashamed to death if he found he was selling a fake magic weapon, wouldn't he?

Two minutes later, a young man in gold-rimmed glasses who was about 1.8 m tall with a good figure and a handsome look came striding down the stairs from the second floor. He laughed as he looked at Wang Ke, and said before he even reached the entrance hall, "You must be Mr. Wang. Welcome, welcome!"

As he spoke, he speeded up a little and strode to Wang Ke. He continued to smile and said, "My name is Bai Ruochen. I am in charge of this antique store and I just heard from an employee that you're here to talk business. I wonder if that's true."

Wang Ke had a good impression of this young man at the age of 25 or 26 due to the fact that he had speeded up his footsteps after coming down the stairs, as well as his cheerful laughter.

"Hello, Mr. Bai. I indeed wanted to talk business with you. By pure luck, I bought a genuine magic weapon, so I wanted to come here to sell it."

A trace of surprise passed through Bai Ruochen's eyes as he looked at Wang Ke for a few moments. He then said with a smile, "Well, Mr. Wang, what you are carrying in your hand must be the magic weapon you are talking about, right? I wonder if I can have a look at it."

Wang Ke took out the rusty copper bell magic weapon and handed it to Bai Ruochen before saying, "Mr. Bai, we all know the rules here. I hope that you can take a good look at it and I also hope you can be honest about the price."

Bai Ruochen did not rush to answer, but carefully examed the copper bell magic weapon in his hands.

After a few minutes, he slowly raised his head to look at Wang Ke and smiled, "Not bad, this is a magic weapon. Mr. Wang, you have a good pair of eyes! If this copper bell magic weapon had been placed on the stalls outside, it would have been very hard to detect it if you hadn't picked it up and examined it carefully or if you hadn't had the knowledge and rich experience! I see that you're young and I did not expect that you would be so skilled."

Wang Ke smiled and said modestly, "Thank you. It was just a matter of luck. I'm nothing but a newcomer who has just entered the antique and magic weapon field and I'm still learning from a senior. You're a master already. Please don't flatter me."
