Chen Rui smiled and nodded at Lehman, then led Karen out of the mansion.

"What were you just discussing?"

Karen was very puzzled by the conversation between Chen Rui and Lehman just now.

After getting in the car, she asked Chen Rui.

Chen Rui smiled and patted the suitcase in his hand: "I picked up some good things at Chelsea Market before."

"Mr. Lehman wanted to pick something out of my hand, but I refused."

When Karen heard what he said, she couldn't help but be startled: "Huh? How does he want to pick up the slack?"

Chen Rui started the car with a smile and expressed his judgment.

At this moment, Karen also opened the box and took a look, confirming that the tank cup really belonged to Sir Drake.

Then the quote given by Lehman is definitely not a scam.

But the problem lies in that jar, and she can also see that this jar is not simple.

But she couldn't tell exactly what was unusual about this jar.

But since Chen Rui said it, Leman is Xiangzhuang who dances the sword, so this is his intention.

That must make sense.

But when she thought about it, it was really unbelievable to her that Lehman would actually do such a thing.

"By the way, what are you doing here?"

Chen Rui didn't quite understand how Karen came to work in this person's house.

Karen explained to Chen Rui.

It turned out that it was her father who suffered from PTSD after he returned from the army.

I spent several years wasting time at home, and even almost committed suicide.

It was not until a few years ago that her father's illness improved a lot.

Later, he joined a security company. Some time ago, his father started working as a security guard for Mr. Lehman.

The two of them became familiar with each other after going back and forth.

And this Mr. Lehman is an antique dealer and a collector.

It happened that he had a batch of various jewelry collected in the past at home, but he couldn't handle it himself.

I just wanted to ask someone to come over and help me identify it, and fix some of the broken ones if possible.

After learning this information, Karen's father Nelson recommended his daughter to Lehman.

Lehman interviewed Karen online and was very satisfied with her abilities.

So I asked her to come over to help with the appraisal and repair the jewelry.

No, I have been doing this for almost half a month.

Now the work is finally coming to an end.

Karen explained her current job to Chen Rui, and Chen Rui nodded after listening.

"How much did he pay?"

"Ha, a total of 200,000 will be given in twenty days, divided into three batches."

"Fifty thousand will be given on the first five days, and another fifty thousand will be given on the tenth day. After all is done, the remaining one hundred thousand will be settled."

"During this period, I have already received 100,000 dollars from Mr. Lehman. Every time I give him money, he is very happy."

"So if you say that about him, I always feel that Mr. Lehman shouldn't be like that."

Karen explained to Chen Rui.

Chen Rui nodded: "That's true. From what you said, he is pretty good."

In fact, Chen Rui has already decided in his heart that this Lehman is not a good bird.

But his girlfriend has a good impression of him, and he doesn't want to forcefully instill his own ideas into Karen.

She has to let her experience it herself when it comes to looking at people.

"Is the jewelry he asked you to appraise very valuable?"

Chen Rui asked, changing the subject.

He has never been particularly knowledgeable about antique jewelry.

But Karen is definitely an expert in this area.

No matter what kind of jewelry it is, she will definitely be able to estimate its value for you at a glance.

Moreover, she has a very good skill in repairing jewelry.

This time Lehman asked her for identification, and he really found the right person.

But he could pay such a high appearance fee, so Chen Rui was very curious about the jewelry he wanted to appraise.

When Karen heard this, she shook her head and smiled.

"Expensive, everything is very expensive, some of them can be considered high-quality products."

"But most of them are ordinary goods, mainly because they are large in quantity and very old. Some of the styles are very old."

"There are hundreds of thousands of pieces. It's very troublesome to choose the best ones among these jewelry pieces."

"It's also very hard on the eyes, and you have to repair the jewelry. Please keep it clean and sort it into categories."

Chen Rui couldn't help but nodded sadly after hearing Karen describe her work.

"From this point of view, the two hundred thousand he gave you is really not too much."

The two drove while chatting, and soon they drove back to Manhattan.

Karen had been to this city before, but now her head was covered in gray.

Coupled with the choking smell of cigarette ash, the two of them lost interest in visiting Manhattan.

After finding a restaurant and having a quick bite, Chen Rui planned to drive back to the hotel where he was staying.

But halfway through the car, Karen stopped her.

"It's better to go to my hotel. My hotel is better."

Karen smiled and extended an invitation to Chen Rui.

"Your hotel?"

Chen Rui didn't quite understand.

"When I first came to New York, Mr. Lehman helped me get a room in a hotel over there in Central Park."

"I usually finish work at night. If I don't want to live in the villa, I can stay here."

"The scenery there is very nice. You can see Central Park and the Hudson River from the window."

Karen smiled and explained to Chen Rui.

Chen Rui nodded: "Hey, this boss provides food and accommodation, which sounds really kind."

The two drove and soon arrived at the hotel Karen mentioned.

The hotel is right by the river outside Central Park, with river view rooms in the country.

The hotel is also a historical building with a history of more than 100 years.

Just looking at the appearance, you can see the typical British style.

Karen's room was in room 502 on the fifth floor of the hotel, but when the two of them went upstairs, they were stopped by the lobby manager.

"Madam, our water pipe upstairs is broken today, and we are currently repairing it so as not to affect your rest."

"What do you think if we change a room for you?"

The lobby manager said with a polite smile, Karen and Chen Rui naturally had no objection.

Then the manager changed their room to 402 downstairs, and the two of them went to 502 to pack their luggage.

Fortunately, Karen's luggage is very simple, just a small suitcase.

After packing their luggage, the two of them came downstairs.

It's better to say goodbye than newlyweds. They haven't seen each other for many days, so the two naturally had a good discussion on their driving skills.

After a fight, before it got dark, the two of them fell asleep.

When Chen Rui woke up again, he was awakened by the urge to urinate.

He secretly cursed himself for being greedy. Why did he drink two extra bottles of beer during dinner?

Reluctantly, I got up and went to the bathroom to fill the water.

When I came to the toilet and opened the water, I was feeling refreshed when I heard a popping sound coming from the roof.

There seemed to be a sound of heavy objects falling to the ground, which startled Chen Rui so late at night that he almost peed on his hands...

Chen Rui couldn't help but glared fiercely at the rooftop.
