Looking at Ye Fan, Mr. Cao had a faint smile on his face.

It had to be said that he really valued Ye Fan too much. Whether it was his character or ability, if he could be drawn into his camp, with Ye Fan's ability, he would definitely be able to achieve great things.

And I am the witness of its success.

Looking at Mr. Cao, Ye Fan smiled and nodded: "Mr. Cao, you are too polite to invite me personally. If I don't agree, wouldn't it be disrespectful to you?

What's more, in this Jiangcheng antique shop, I'm afraid no one dares to disobey Mr. Cao's words. Wouldn't it be a joy in life to have such a big tree to enjoy the shade?"

Ye Fan didn't hide anything and bluntly stated his purpose.

"Oh? Are you in trouble? The Liu family of the Dark Alliance?"

Mr. Cao is not a fool. After hearing Ye Fan's words, he immediately understood what he wanted to express.

Ye Fan nodded: "I can't say it's troublesome, but if I want to live a better life, someone must be kicked out. It's difficult to do this with my strength, so

, if Mr. Cao can help me, I can join the ghost market, and even unite the Jiangcheng Antique Shop into a force, that would be a good idea."

Speaking of his ambitions, Mr. Cao was mentally prepared for this moment, but his heart still beat violently.

Integrating the entire antique community in Jiangcheng? What kind of courage does this require?

You must know that the Jiangcheng antiques industry is not limited to Jiangcheng, but also has online channels for incoming goods and offline channels for buyers.

This is a huge trading network.

Mr. Cao swallowed a mouthful of saliva and finally smiled bitterly: "Young man, it's good to have hard work."

He was already frightened by Ye Fan's great plan, but he couldn't show his fear in front of Ye Fan, so he had to hide it with a wry smile.

Seeing Mr. Cao's strange expression, Ye Fan understood what he was worried about.

She smiled and walked to him: "The Jiangcheng Treasure Appraisal Conference is about to be held. I don't have a suitable treasure on hand. I wonder if Mr. Cao can help me?"

This was the direct purpose of his coming here. Instead of looking for them one by one, it would be better to look at the catalog and make targeted choices.

Mr. Cao looked up at Ye Fan and saw Ye Fan's smiling face, and then he came back to his senses.

"So you want to ask me for help."

Ye Fan's great idea before had really made him stupid. It was like drawing a big pie, surrounding himself in it, and asking himself to help him choose the bright weapon.

"Mr. Cao is so wise, he must have already seen through my mind."

After all, there was still someone to ask for, so Ye Fan flattered him a little bit.

Sure enough, the smile on Mr. Cao's face became even wider, and he nodded and said, "You kid, you can definitely achieve great things."

Then, he called Wang Ping and asked him to take Ye Fan to choose the bright weapon.

….

After coming out of the ghost market, Ye Fan felt very relaxed. The items for the treasure appraisal conference were all ready and he was just waiting for the treasure appraisal conference to be held.

"Mr. Ye, are you really the elder of the ghost market?"

Sun Yilang looked at Ye Fan with envy, his eyes filled with surprise.

You know, the ghost market never selects staff from outside. This is the first time that they can choose Ye Fan. At the same time, it also means that Ye Fan's ability is really outstanding.

Hearing what Mr. Sun said, Ye Fan smiled slightly: "If you want to fight against the Dark Alliance, Ghost Market is the best choice."

The situation in Jiangcheng is complicated and complex, especially the collusion between the city lord's palace and the dark alliance, which is even more powerful. To deal with such an existence, without a strong enough backing, it would be difficult for Ye Fan to succeed alone.

Sun Yilang's face gradually became silent: "With this identity, the Dark Alliance will definitely be wary of you, but if you want to compete with them, the only way is to integrate Jiangcheng Antiques."

Having been immersed in the antique shop for decades, Sun Yilang naturally knows how difficult it is to do this.

Shen Bao on the side sighed: "If it doesn't work, we will ban them all with thunderous means. Anyone who falls into our camp will be given a chance. The others will be strangled from the root."

Those who follow me live, and those who go against me die. With the power in Shen Bao's hands, he can do this.

But Ye Fan (this chapter is not finished yet!)

Chapter 160: Strike first to gain advantage, strike later to suffer disaster

He shook his head: "In this way, we may be able to make some people fear and surrender to us, but after all, we are not sincere. Once danger comes, it is obviously impossible to expect these people to fight for us. Therefore, if we really want to win over They must convince others with their virtue."

Shen Bao frowned, trying to persuade people with virtue. With the character of these businessmen in Jiangcheng, how could he possibly make them surrender?

"Mr. Ye, what should we do next?"

Sun Yilang also frowned, not knowing what to do.

After all, Ye Fan's ideas are not comparable to theirs. If you want to integrate the entire Jiangcheng antique world, you have to be courageous.

But Ye Fan smiled mysteriously: "Rather than just sit back and wait for death, it's better to take the initiative."

…

Early the next morning, in front of Tiancheng Antiques Store, Ye Fan and Sun Yilang had faint sneers on their faces.

Last night, Shen Bao had sent people to investigate and found out that Tiancheng Antique Shop was an industry owned by the Liu family.

Moreover, in Jiang City, Tiancheng Antique Shop is somewhat famous. Although the owner Liu Tianqi is not a high-level treasure appraiser, he is well-known in Jiang City for his keen eyes.

With the support of the Liu family behind it, Tiancheng Antiques has always maintained stable growth in performance.

This is naturally inseparable from Liu Tianqi's efforts.

"What do you two need? Our Tiancheng Antique Shop sells all kinds of treasures and items, ensuring that you two can come home with a full load."

A boy at the door had already come over to greet him, looking at Ye Fan and the others and saying calmly.

Sun Yilang walked forward slowly: "I heard that Tiancheng Antique Shop has a treasure that will make the shop special. We want to take a look. Is it convenient?"

If anyone knows the various antique shops in Jiangcheng best, then Sun Yilang is the first to bear the brunt.

I have been working as an antique dealer here for decades, and I know all the antiques in Jiangcheng well.

After hearing Sun Yilang's words, the waiter's face suddenly darkened and he looked at Ye Fan and Mr. Sun.

"Are you two here to see the treasure of the store?"

Squinting his eyes, there was a sense of vigilance deep in his eyes.

Sun Yilang smiled kindly: "I am familiar with Liu Tianqi, the owner of Tiancheng Auction House. This is my business card. You can ask him."

As he spoke, he took out his business card from his pocket and handed it to the young man.

He glanced at it suspiciously, and finally accepted it: "Two distinguished guests, please wait a moment. I will ask the boss for instructions immediately."

With that said, he quickly went upstairs.

"You know Liu Tianqi?"

Looking at Sun Yilang, Ye Fan asked with a smile.

This Liu Tianqi is extremely low-key in the antique circle. Except for a few occasional shots, he has never been seen showing off his treasure appraisal skills in public.

Therefore, not many people know him.

Unexpectedly, Sun Yilang and he were familiar with each other.
