Taking out the gifts prepared in advance, Lin Chen placed them on the coffee table.

"Come on, why are you so polite. Mu Yingxiong smiled.

"Classmate Lin, you better take it back, we are rich and noble, and there is no shortage of local products in the countryside. Lu Jiaoxue said with a smile.

As soon as these words came out, Mu Yayan suddenly frowned slightly.

"Aunt Lu, you haven't seen what kind of gift it is, why do you say that?" Mu Yayan said unceremoniously.

Anyway, she is not her own mother, and the relationship is not very good, so of course she will not give face.

"Hmm, Xiaoyan, you mean, the gift is very valuable?" Lu Jiaoxue played.

Mu Yayan snorted, in fact, she didn't understand what was in these two custom-made exquisite boxes.

She just trusts Lin Chen unconditionally, that's all.

"Then open it and take a look. Xu Muye proposed.

Seeing that everyone had no objections, he opened the box directly.

In the box on the left, it is the well-preserved old ginseng.

The box on the right contains jadeite the size of a baby's fist.

"I thought it was a treasure...... Lu Jiaoxue glanced at it and immediately lost interest.

Mu Yingxiong didn't know how to identify jadeite jade, but he noticed the old ginseng.

This old ginseng has a rare three-headed and three-body body, and the roots are very complete, and it seems to be some years.

In the rich circle of the city, there are also people who buy some wild ginseng at a high price to nourish their bodies, but they have never heard of an example of such a large size and such a peculiar appearance.

"Yo, this is not ordinary, right?" Xu Muye said curiously.

"It's okay, you shouldn't be able to buy it on the market, in my opinion, the year is two hundred years like this, you can be called the king of ginseng. Lin Chen said indifferently.

"Really? Wouldn't it have to be sold for a sky-high price, worth millions at all? The crowd was shocked.

"Phew, what does he say?" Lu Jiaoxue snorted, "A poor student, can have such a baby? I think it's an artificially cultivated freak variety...... And the stone, which is of this strange color, in my opinion, is about the same as the glass of a beer bottle. ”

"Sister Xue, pay attention to what you say, it's classmate Lin's intention. Mu Yingxiong prompted.

He also didn't know why Lu Jiaoxue was so hostile and aimed at Lin Chen.

"Where is the intention? Why can't I see it?" Lu Jiaoxue said with a smile, "They all say that children in the countryside are more simple and honest, how do I feel like a liar." ”

In the face of such a naked provocation, Lin Chen's face was calm and calm.

Because he is well aware of the actual value of the two gifts.

"Since some people don't believe it, let's test it. Lin Chen said with a smile.

He asked Mu Yayan to bring a bowl of water, and gently broke a small ginseng whisker and soaked it in the water.

"Hey, aren't you, you mean, you want people to drink this water, what if it's poisonous?" Lu Jiaoxue said in surprise.

"How can it be poisonous," Lin Chen said calmly, "This kind of superb old ginseng can nourish the blood, calm the nerves and intellectuals, greatly replenish vitality, and even hang the dying patient at a critical time." However, because it's so nourishing, you can't eat too much, just like I did. ”

In fact, he didn't say that this two-hundred-year-old ginseng actually grew in the ancient martial arts world, absorbing the essence of heaven and earth for many years, and its medicinal power far exceeded that of ordinary old ginseng.

"Is that an exaggeration? I'll give it a try. Xu Muye said first.

He picked up the bowl and took a tentative sip.

In less than half a minute, the blood all over his body poured into his face, and his face was intoxicated, a bit like he had drunk high.

"Ahh

"I'll go! This medicine is strong enough! It's just domineering!" Xu Muye's eyes lit up, and he waved his fist vigorously, "My whole body is warm now, it's more refreshing than washing the sauna, and it seems that I drank a whole box of functional drinks, and the tiger can be killed when it comes!"

"Brother Xu seems to be a little weak, and he usually has to exercise more. Lin Chen said.

Seeing this scene, everyone's eyes widened and they re-examined the strange-looking old ginseng.

Made, I almost missed the baby!

"This ......" Lu Jiaoxue's face was full of embarrassment.

Mu Yingxiong also quickly tasted the ginseng water.

Soon, his eyes lit up and he gave a thumbs up.

A series of reactions in the body, that can't deceive people, it's just that Mu Yingxiong is in good health, and he didn't have a nosebleed.

"We all blamed classmate Lin," Mu Yingxiong sighed, "In the past, I also tasted some old ginseng, compared to this one, it is all garbage, no different from radishes." ”

"Tut-tut," Aunt Mu Qing'e spoke, "Since it's a treasure, then treasure it well, don't use it easily, in case anyone in the family is seriously ill, it's good to use it for emergencies." ”

"Mmmm," Mu Yingxiong nodded hurriedly, "There is such a treasure at home, and my heart is much more stable." ”

Everyone echoed one after another, which made Lu Jiaoxue even more embarrassed, and she felt that her face was half swollen.

"Okay," Lu Jiaoxue's face was gloomy, "Let's put aside the matter of the old ginseng, let's talk about it again, is this jade thing also the best? You know, there are too many fakes of this kind of thing nowadays." ”

"That's right," Lin Chen said, "In that case, it's better to ask an expert to appraise it, I also want to know its specific value." ”

Mu Yingxiong and Lu Jiaoxue glanced at each other, and they both nodded at the same time.

"In this way, I know a person in the collecting world," said the second uncle, Mu Lianshan, "This name is Geng Boju, and there is a collection column program on the provincial TV station, and people occasionally appraise treasures for others, charging 20,000 yuan each time, and his reputation in the entire industry is excellent...... It just so happens that Brother Boju has a lot of experience in jade appreciation and has published a monograph. ”

"Ouch, amazing, is there a way to invite you?" Mu Yingxiong raised his eyebrows.

"I'll try my best. Mu Lianshan immediately called.

Unexpectedly, Geng Boju happened to be free, and he also wanted to get together with a few old friends, so he agreed to come and have a look.

However, they also stated in advance that the appraisal fee should not be less.

Everyone tasted tea patiently, and Lu Jiaoxue also introduced that the tall and handsome young man behind her was her nephew, called Zhou Qiming.

It is said that this Zhou Qiming is a rich second generation, but he did not bother to inherit the family business, but planned to return to China to enter the entertainment industry, wanting to be a star idol or something.

Listening to Lu Jiaoxue's meaning, it seems that she wants to match Zhou Qiming and Mu Yayan to have a "kiss and kiss".

It's no wonder that she makes things difficult for Lin Chen everywhere.

After drinking a cup of tea, everyone waited for Geng Boju.

To be honest, this Geng Boju looks very ordinary, and can even be said to be a little ugly.

This person has a few shallow pockmarks on his face, wears a long shirt and cloth shoes, and carries a folding fan in his hand, like a storyteller in the past.

"Brother Boju, I finally waited for you," Mu Lianshan smiled, "There is a piece of jade here, please give me a palm." ”

"No problem, get it quickly. Geng Boju calmly stretched out his hand.

When he saw the jade, his face changed suddenly, and he looked at it over and over again, and kept sighing.

"Master Geng, do you say this thing is real?" Lu Jiaoxue asked.

Geng Boju did not answer, but turned to Lin Chen.

"Brother Lin, I heard that you are the owner of this treasure, if I am sure that I will pay 20 million, can you sell it to me?" Geng Boju said with a serious face.

What? 20 million?!

The people in the living room were all so surprised that they couldn't keep their mouths shut.

Even Lin Chen was quite surprised, he didn't expect it to be worth so much money.

"I'm sorry, I've already given it to Uncle Mu. Lin Chen said decisively.

"That's a pity," Geng Boju sighed, "I really didn't expect to see such a superb dragon stone jade in my lifetime." ”

"What do you mean by dragon stone jade?" everyone was curious.

"To put it simply, it is the top variety of jadeite, which is similar to the imperial green you have heard of," Geng Boju patiently explained, "It usually grows in caves, does not see sunlight all day long, is characterized by good transparency, no impurities, very delicate and lubricated texture, and has a cold fluorescence." ”

"This piece of jadeite, the color is not thick or light, from the inside to the outside shows a gorgeous and gorgeous temperament," Geng Boju said, "There was a fifty-five grams of dragon stone jadeite, carved into a jade Guanyin, sold for fifteen million prices. Your piece of jadeite is bigger and heavier than that one, and its luster is better, and the price of 20 million is only a small amount. ”

The audience gasped.

No one expected that the gift given by Lin Chen would be so valuable!

"This is not true, master, could you be mistaken?" Lu Jiaoxue was extremely embarrassed, and her voice trembled.

"You mean it's a no-brainer? I'm sorry, but that doesn't happen to me. Geng Boju was full of confidence, "To put it mildly, the various jade I have seen in my life are not 800 tons but 1,000 tons...... If anyone doesn't want it, I'll buy it out of my own pocket, cash and cheques of your choice. ”

Hearing this, Lu Jiaoxue was like a frosted eggplant, and her whole body wilted.

"Sister Xue, can you say a few words?" Mu Yingxiong frowned, "Master Geng is an authority in the industry, and he will never be wrong." I decided to ask a jade carver to carve a jade Buddha for Xiaoyan to wear. ”

"This can be there. Lin Chen smiled.

"Thank you, Dad. Mu Yayan smiled like a flower.

To be honest, after learning the value of the dragon stone jade, Mu Yayan was really worried that this treasure would be managed by Lu Jiaoxue.

She has only one thought, she can give it to anyone, but she can't give it to this snobbish stepmother.

Lu Jiaoxue's cheeks were hot, and a wave of anger surged in her heart.

After getting acquainted with Mu Yingxiong, she lived a carefree life as Mrs. Kuo, and she had this kind of anger every day.

No, you must fight this hillbilly to the end!

"So, Lin Chen, can you explain the origin of these two gifts. Lu Jiaoxue's eyes rolled and asked again, "With your net worth and status, it seems that you don't deserve to have them." ”

"Enough!" Mu Yayan was also annoyed, "Brother Chen's medical skills are superb, it is very easy to make money, and he specializes in treating incurable diseases, Aunt Hong and Miss Nine of the Xiao family in Yandu were cured by him." ”

"What are you talking about?" Lu Jiaoxue's eyes widened, "This hillbilly with muddy legs can actually climb the Xiao family of Yandu?

"Believe it or not, I saw it with my own eyes. Mu Yayan was extremely unhappy.

"It's unlikely," Zhou Qiming questioned, "Who doesn't know, the Xiao family of Yandu is in charge of the business empire, and he is a first-class person in Huaguo, and the existence at the top of the pyramid knows this little peasant?"

"This is easy to do, I once appraised the calligraphy and painting for the peerless Aunt Hong, so I kept the contact information of her housekeeper Mr. Fu, and I can confirm it with a phone call. Geng Boju said suddenly.
