Chapter 1170: Chapter 1169: Members of the Yan Family Appear (Part 3)

Not to mention signing a three-year contract all at once.

Ye Ning furrowed her brow as she looked at the tea house, composed herself, and finally stepped inside.

Inside the tea house, it was indeed different from the quiet antique street outside; it was bustling like a festive celebration, even though it wasn’t evening yet. Bright red lanterns were lit, and it was so crowded inside that there was no room to sit.

Seeing this, she lost interest in looking elsewhere and directly grabbed a waiter holding a teacup, “Hello, I want to find your boss. Can you tell me where he is?”

“Boss?”

The waiter turned with an impatient look at her, “You’re here to show the boss something, right? Sorry, he’s busy today, enjoying the flowers, no time to see you.”

After speaking, the waiter was about to leave.

A little imposter had even managed to turn the waitstaff into such arrogant individuals?

Ye Ning narrowed her eyes aggressively, let go of her hand, and ignored the waiter, heading straight to the most bustling area.

Thinking about it over the years, the Yan Family’s true appraisal brand “Phoenix Blue Ink” had been kept quiet to avoid unnecessary trouble and had never been publicly announced as owned by the Yan Family. Instead, when it fell to Yan Xiuning’s hands, she put it out to prevent the brand from disappearing, but by then, it was under the name of the Ye Family.

Ye Ning walked all the way and saw that after reaching the second floor of the tea house, indeed, there was a large tea restaurant where at this moment quite a few people were gathered, looking towards one place. Surprisingly, once here, there was silence.

It seems they had already started.

Well-versed in the appraisal arts, Ye Ning understood that this quietness meant the appraisal had begun, so she too remained silent and followed over, standing behind the crowd.

Once behind the crowd, she peeked through the gaps, and indeed, inside the tightly surrounded circle, a peach wood table about two to three meters long had four people seated, one of whom was a middle-aged man in a dark brown satin traditional Chinese outfit sitting at the head seat. Opposite him were three individuals dressed differently, and from the briefcases they held, it was clear these were the ones presenting items for appraisal.

“Mr. Yan, shall we begin?”

Everything quieted down, prompting the middle person among the three to speak.

Mr. Yan?

This middle-aged man in traditional attire even changed his surname?

Ye Ning’s lips curled into a cold smile…

Upon hearing the request to begin, the middle-aged man nodded. At this moment, everyone watched as the three men opened their briefcases, revealing the items brought for appraisal.

There was a bronze cauldron from the Shang Dynasty and a blue and white porcelain from the Ming and Qing era, both immensely valuable, their worth immeasurable by money.

Ye Ning was astounded; she never imagined such a small place could present such precious items, especially as she saw the person in a suit in the middle take out his item; she gasped sharply!

“Mr. Yan, the items are out, now it’s your turn to appraise. But Mr. Yan, you must adhere to the rules; if you can’t authenticate them, you’ll owe ten times their value.”
