After looking over the gift Wei Wenfeng had presented.
Zhang Bolong's lips curled slightly.
He clearly held Wei Wenfeng's approach in some contempt.
He knew about Lin Feng's "family fortune."
A piece of jade was supposed to move Lin Feng?
What a joke.
When Wei Wenfeng saw that Lin Feng showed no reaction, his heart immediately skipped a beat.
From his years of business experience, Lin Feng did not seem particularly interested in this piece of jade.
"Mr. Lin, I just procured this ruyi from overseas. It cost a considerable sum, and I hope you'll like it."
Even Du Kao had been unable to uncover any useful information about Lin Feng, much less the Wei Family.
Wei Wenfeng had originally thought that jade worth over a hundred million would be enough to impress Lin Feng.
But now, it seemed
he had underestimated him.
Lin Feng said, "Aren't you making too much of this? If you hadn't come looking for me, I wouldn't even remember what happened at Antique City. After all, too many people have caused trouble with me lately. Besides, what use do I have for this ruyi?"
Lin Feng was not deliberately refusing it.
It was just that his unreliable system kept giving him bits of jade every now and then.
They were completely useless.
Green as could be.
The color was even somewhat unnatural.
Wei Wenfeng was used to keeping his emotions hidden, but upon hearing Lin Feng's words, his face still twitched slightly.
What did he mean, what use did he have for the ruyi?
It was worth a hundred million!
He could sell it if nothing else!
At that moment, Zhang Bolong suddenly burst into laughter. "It seems Brother Lin doesn't care much for President Wei's gift. Then why not take a look at the gift I brought for you?"
Zhang Bolong had also come to give a gift.
Zhang Bolong clapped his hands.
Soon after, one of his subordinates carefully walked in.
He held a box about half a meter long in his arms.
The surface of the box was studded with exquisite diamonds.
One look was enough to tell that what it contained was no ordinary item.
Zhang Bolong took the box and
removed a roll of dark yellowed paper from within.
The paper looked quite old.
It bore roughly a hundred Chinese characters.
"Mr. Lin, please have a look!"
Zhang Bolong slowly unrolled the yellow paper, his brows brimming with pride.
How could gifting jade possibly match Brother Lin's temperament?
Yet Lin Feng's brow furrowed tighter and tighter.
Wasn't it just a piece of calligraphy?
Why the hell were you showing it to me?
"Th-this is Zeng Gong's Ju Shi Tie!" Wei Ying suddenly exclaimed in surprise.
Lin Feng did not know much about calligraphy or paintings.
But as a daughter of the Wei Family, Wei Ying had no interest in business operations and only enjoyed studying antiques, calligraphy, and paintings.
That was why she recognized the origins of this calligraphy at a glance.
When he heard Wei Ying name the Ju Shi Tie, Zhang Bolong could not help but regard the girl more highly.
It seemed the Wei Family was not made up entirely of money-grubbing merchants.
"Not bad. This is indeed Master Zeng Gong's calligraphy. I hope Mr. Lin will like it."
As Zhang Bolong spoke, the fat on his face trembled with every smile.
It was as though he were mocking Wei Wenfeng.
He actually dared to present a mere Jade Ruyi? He clearly knew far too little about Lin Feng.
"Ju Shi Tie?"
Wei Wenfeng's brows furrowed slightly at the sight.
Although he was the head of the Wei Family, he did not know much about antiques, calligraphy, or paintings.
But judging by his daughter's reaction, this piece of calligraphy was certainly no ordinary work!
"Yes. The Ju Shi Tie is the only surviving authentic work by Zeng Gong, one of the Eight Great Masters of the Tang and Song Dynasties. It contains 124 characters in total and has been collected by many famous figures throughout history."
At this point, Wei Ying revealed a bitter smile.
"One character on this piece would probably be worth a luxury sports car now."
Wei Ying understood very clearly why Wei Wenfeng had brought her to visit Lin Feng this time.
If the jade failed to move Lin Feng, her father might very well offer her to Lin Feng as well!
