Chapter 139 Be a Dignified Person

Chen Jing looked at the identification information that appeared in front of his eyes and was slightly stunned.

He had thought that this jade Buddha might be an antique, but he never expected that it was actually a foreign antique!

The period of King Xipao of the Miandian Gongbang Dynasty, which corresponds to the period of Hua and Xia, should be the period of Emperor Tongzhi and Emperor Guangxu of the Qing Dynasty, which has a history of nearly two hundred years.

It is worth mentioning that this Xipao King was the last king of the Gongbang Dynasty, similar to Puyi, the Xuantong Emperor of the Qing Dynasty.

Chen Jing hasn't even studied the antiques of Yangyang Hua and Xia well enough, let alone the antiques from Burmese stores. He certainly doesn't know the value of this jade Buddha in terms of antiques.

However, based on the appraisal information given by the appraisal eye, he can still realize that the value of this jade Buddha is definitely not low. After all, the carving skills are very good, not to mention that it is made of high-quality mutton-fat white jade.

The most important thing is that the appraisal information can say that this jade Buddha is ‘really a treasure’!

For the evaluation of treasure, ordinary objects are definitely not qualified.

"It's worth at least a million." Chen Jing secretly estimated the price in his mind.

His valuation may not be accurate because he does not know the antique value of the Jade Buddha itself, but such a large piece of fine mutton-fat white jade is already worth a lot of money.

Chen Jing's mind was spinning and he carefully placed the Jade Buddha on the table next to him. Then he looked at Mrs. Guo and said, "Old lady, your Jade Buddha is of great value. I want to buy it."

Mrs. Guo's expression didn't change much after hearing this. She nodded: "If you want to buy it, it'll be 10,000 yuan."

"No." Chen Jing shook his head and asked: "Old lady, how much debt is left to be paid by your son and daughter-in-law?"

Mrs. Guo was shocked when she heard him ask this question. She obviously realized something. She frowned and said, "Xiao Chen, what do you want to do?"

"Tell me first." Chen Jing didn't answer, just asked.

"In the past few years, I have paid back tens of thousands of yuan, and there is still 460,000 yuan left." When Mrs. Guo said the amount, her voice inevitably trembled.

Guo Xiaosong next to him also had a tight, dirty face.

"Four hundred and sixty thousand." Chen Jing repeated the amount, with a somewhat complicated look in his eyes.

He didn't think the amount was huge, but he felt that Guo Xiaosong's parents were far less strong than Mrs. Guo.

The debt of about 500,000 yuan was neither too much nor too much, but Chen Jing felt that there was no way he would commit suicide, not to mention that there was an elder and a younger one.

Chen Jing couldn't criticize Guo Xiaosong's parents. After all, maybe they just couldn't accept the failure of the stone bet and the shock of going from heaven to hell, so they committed suicide, not because of debt.

"Old lady, your jade Buddha is very valuable. I'll buy it for 660,000 yuan. What do you think?" Chen Jing put aside other thoughts in his mind and said.

Mrs. Guo was stunned, and Deng Yu next to her was also confused.

"Mr. Chen, is this jade Buddha so valuable?" Deng Yu asked in great surprise.

"Xiao Chen, you, don't make such a joke, cough cough cough..." Mrs. Guo came back to her senses, she was a little excited, and she coughed repeatedly as she spoke.

Guo Xiaosong hurried over and patted her back gently while looking at Chen Jing with his eyes.

"Old lady, I'm not joking. In fact, I am engaged in the antique industry. If you don't believe me, you can ask this gentleman." Chen Jing had a smile and seriousness on his face.

"This Jade Buddha of yours is an antique, and the quality of the jade is very good. It is really valuable. Your wife must have spent a lot of money to buy it, right?"

Mrs. Guo coughed for a while before she gradually recovered. She recalled: "That happened decades ago. It seemed to have cost more than 10,000 yuan at that time. The family conditions were pretty good at that time."

More than 10,000 a few decades ago...

Chen Jingding nodded: "That's right. It was so valuable back then, how could it be less valuable now? Don't worry, I have absolutely no other intentions. Your Jade Buddha is worth this price."

Six hundred and sixty thousand.

This is the highest price Chen Jing has ever asked since he entered the antique shop.

In fact, he didn't want to offer such a high price at all. Mrs. Guo was prepared to sell it to him for 10,000 yuan, but Chen Jing still offered this price.

"Is it really worth it?" Mrs. Guo still hesitated and didn't believe it.

"It's really worth it. I can even make a profit if I buy it and sell it later." Chen Jing responded with a smile on his face.

When Mrs. Guo heard this, she was silent for a long time and then said: "You said that, I believe it."

Chen Jing breathed a sigh of relief and was about to say something else when Mrs. Guo suddenly pulled Guo Xiaosong over and said seriously: "Xiaosong, kneel down for big brother."

Although Guo Xiaosong was young, he could vaguely understand the meaning of the conversation between his eldest brother and grandma just now. He knelt down in front of Chen Jing without any hesitation.

This shocked Chen Jing, and he quickly pulled Guo Xiaosong and said: "Xiaosong, get up quickly."

"Xiao Chen, let him kneel down. You are saving my life, and you are saving his life." Mrs. Guo's cloudy eyes were a little red at the moment, and her voice was trembling.

"It's impossible for another person to buy this Jade Buddha for 660,000 yuan. If I sell it myself, I wouldn't be able to sell it for so much money. Maybe it won't even sell for 10,000 yuan." Guo

The old lady was in tears, but her words were clear and coherent.

Deng Yu, who was next to him, was also a little moved when he saw this. He helped Chen Jing hold Guo Xiaosong and said: "Old lady, you are right. Most people in antique shops have dark hearts. A kind man like Mr. Chen

There aren’t many people there.”

When Chen Jing heard what he said, he felt ashamed.

Because he didn't think he was being kind. Even if he got the Jade Buddha for 660,000 yuan, he would still be able to make money in the future. He just chose to make less.

Of course, the first half of what Deng Yu said was correct. If someone knowledgeable had bought Mrs. Guo's Jade Buddha, it might have been bought for 10,000 yuan, or even less than 10,000 yuan.

After pulling Guo Xiaosong up, Chen Jingcai said again: "Old lady, since you agreed to sell, let's find a bank and I will transfer the money to your bank card. You should have a bank card, right?"

"Yes, yes." Mrs. Guo wiped her tears and became excited and happy now.

Although she took over the debts of her son and daughter-in-law, she never thought that she would be able to pay them off. She could only let Guo Xiaosong pay them back in the future. The old lady just thought that she could pay back more while she was alive, so that Guo Xiaosong could pay them off in the future.

Be more relaxed.

But he didn't expect that the Jade Buddha left by his wife would be worth so much money, and he never expected to meet Chen Jing.

Afterwards, without any further delay, Chen Jing took Mrs. Guo to a nearby bank and transferred the money to her.

When she came out of the bank, Mrs. Guo couldn't stop crying. She held Chen Jing's hand and kept thanking him.

"Old lady, there is some money left after you pay off the debt. It should be enough for you and Xiaosong's daily life." Chen Jing said, waving to Guo Xiaosong again.

"In addition, you have to let Xiaosong go to school, and I will bear his tuition and living expenses until he graduates from college."

Chen Jing squatted in front of Guo Xiaosong, stretched out his hand to wipe the tears on his dirty little face, and said seriously: "Xiaosong, you must study seriously, because for you, only studying can change your destiny, you know?

?”

"Yeah!" Guo Xiaosong looked at Chen Jing with red eyes and nodded vigorously.

"Also, no matter what difficulties you encounter in the future, don't do what you did yesterday. Just be like grandma and be a dignified person, you know?"

"Um!"
