Chapter 239: [239] Sure enough, women are all drama queens_1
 

“Mr. Tang, after evaluation by several appraisers, we’ve concluded that the total value of your antiques is five million two hundred thousand. You don’t have any objections, do you?”

An appraiser respectfully reported the appraisal to Mr. Tang.

The price they offered was almost identical to the estimate from Tang Feng’s system.

This also showed that the appraisers at Ya Garden had some level of expertise.

“No problem,” Tang Feng nodded slightly, appearing very calm.

But Jiang Zi standing beside him couldn’t stay calm, “Are you guys kidding? Are those antiques really worth over five million?”

She had personally purchased those antiques, spending less than one hundred thousand in total.

If what they said was true, wouldn’t that be an increase of more than fifty times?

The appraiser didn’t know Jiang Zi’s background, but since she came with Tang Feng, he naturally didn’t dare to neglect her, hurriedly explaining, “Several appraisers have rigorously evaluated them before giving a final appraisal. The total value of the eight antiques indeed comes to five million two hundred thousand.”

Jiang Zi looked at Tang Feng, dumbfounded, “This five million… it’s all yours?”

Tang Feng rubbed his nose, “If you want some commission, just say so.”

“That’s not what I mean,” Jiang Zi hastily waved her hand, “I just can’t believe that you’ve made more than five million in such a short time?”

After she was promoted to manager, her monthly salary was only a little over ten thousand.

Of course, if you include the commission, it would be more.

But even for a whole year, it would barely amount to two or three hundred thousand.

Yet Tang Feng casually strolled around the street of antiques and earned what she would make in nearly twenty years.

She felt this world was too absurd.

Why was there such a huge gap between people?

“Mr. Tang, are you planning to sell these antiques directly to the store, or are you thinking of consignment?”

The appraiser who spoke earlier asked again.

Ya Garden had two purchasing methods.

One was to reach an agreed price with Ya Garden, which would then buy the item outright. Whether the item made a profit or loss, it would no longer have anything to do with the seller.

The other was the consignment method.

If a seller thought that Ya Garden’s price was too low, they could place the antique on consignment in the store, and Ya Garden would take a certain percentage as a handling fee.

For sellers, the first method might earn a bit less, but the advantage was that they could see the money right away.

With the second method, they might get a better price, but the payment period could be very long.

The store had several antiques that had been on consignment for over a year and still hadn’t sold.

“Let’s go with the first one,” Tang Feng said, not wanting to waste time over a few antiques.

“Okay, I’ll report to Mrs. Qin right away and then process your payment,”

Such a significant transaction couldn’t be decided by a regular appraiser and still required the boss’s consent.

But, of course, this was merely a formality.

Given Qin Yanan’s trust in Tang Feng, she definitely wouldn’t have much to say.

After the appraiser left, Ge Hui came over again, “Mr. Tang, the car transfer is completed. Here are your car keys and ID card.”

“Thanks,”

Tang Feng took them, expressed his thanks, and then left Ya Garden with Jiang Zi.

It was now past five in the afternoon, and Jiang Zi’s stomach was already growling.

“Since you helped me out today, choose whatever you want to eat tonight, my treat,” Tang Feng said while walking towards the Audi R8 and pressed the key fob.

“Did you buy another car?” Jiang Zi suddenly widened her beautiful eyes.

Didn’t this guy drive a Ferrari a few days ago? How come he has changed to a different one now?

“Didn’t buy it, won it.”

“Won it?”

“Right, somebody challenged me to a race this morning…” Tang Feng gave her an abridged version of the morning’s events.

Jiang Zi’s face was a picture after hearing the story.

The Ferrari he had before was won from opening a mystery box, and now this car was won from a race.

Why did it feel like he was constantly getting things for free?

And to think that he stumbled upon over five million today.

If she had such a husband, she would never have to worry about food and drink for the rest of her life.

Hmm? Why did her thoughts drift in that direction again?

Was it because her parents were pressuring her too much about marriage recently?

“Is your company quite far from where you live?” Tang Feng suddenly asked.

“It’s okay, it’s just over twenty kilometers from where I live,” Jiang Zi didn’t know why he was asking but still responded honestly.

“Do you normally take the bus to and from work?” Tang Feng continued.

“The wait for the bus is too long, I usually take the subway. Sometimes when I’m about to be late for work, I’ll take a taxi,” Jiang Zi explained her commuting routine clearly.

After listening, Tang Feng nodded and suddenly grabbed her hand.

“Ah…”

Jiang Zi, like a startled little deer, instinctively tried to withdraw her hand.

But Tang Feng, without any explanation, stuffed the Audi R8’s key into her hand, “From now on, use this car to commute to and from work.”

“Ah?” Jiang Zi was instantly stunned.

Although she didn’t know the price of the car, it was a sports car; it must be worth at least a million, right?

Why would he give her something so valuable?

As someone who worked in a securities company, her professional sensitivity made her suspect there was a catch.

Did he want to get something from her in return?

What did she have that was worth such a big investment from him?

Was he… planning to keep her as a mistress?

In that moment, countless thoughts flashed through Jiang Zi’s head.

“No, I will never be kept by a man!”

She stuffed the car keys back into Tang Feng’s hands, her heart swelling with unspoken rage.

She couldn’t believe she was seen as so cheap in his eyes.

He actually thought he could have her for a sports car?

What did she mean to him?

A piece of merchandise to be traded?

The more she thought, the more wronged she felt, and large tears began to roll down her cheeks.

Tang Feng was completely stunned.

He just thought that since he already had a Ferrari F8, the Audi R8 would just be sitting around, so he might as well let her drive it for a few days.

He would have never guessed,

That in such a short time, this woman had already directed and acted out an entire drama in her head.

Indeed, women are drama queens.
