Early the next morning, Tang Anni drove the Porsche 911 and waited at the door of the hotel.
Because she was going out, she was fully armed, including a cap, sunglasses and other equipment.
As a star, you enjoy the lights on the stage and the cheers of fans, but at the same time, you sacrifice many things, such as freedom.
Ye Fan got into the car, said "good morning" and asked: "Annie, where are we going today?"
"My grandpa likes antiques, so let's go to Chaotian Palace first!"
With that said, Tang Anni stepped on the accelerator, and the Porsche 911 shot out like an arrow from the string.
Chaotian Palace is the highest-grade, largest, and best-preserved ancient building complex in the entire East China region. It was given by Zhu Yuanzhang, Emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, under an edict, which means "worship to heaven" and "visit the emperor."
It is said that Yeshan, where Chaotian Palace is located, was the site of Yecheng built by King Wu Fucha during the Spring and Autumn Period. It was one of the birthplaces of the main city of Jinling. After that, it went through vicissitudes of life and became either a temple, a Taoist temple, or a school.
Because of this, Chaotian Palace has a history of thousands of years, and many precious antique copper coins have been produced nearby.
Today, the streets around Chaotian Palace have formed an antique market. It is a time-honored brand like Panjiayuan in Beijing, with a large scale and hundreds of shops.
Here, you can find precious antiques from all dynasties, but whether they are authentic or not depends on the buyer's eyesight.
Ye Fan and Tang Anni strolled through the antique market and looked at the flowers.
Tang Anni is a hot little queen in the music industry, and it is said that her family background is extraordinary, and her vision is naturally different from ordinary people. Ordinary antiques cannot catch her eye at all.
Suddenly, Tang Anni entered a luxuriously decorated shop. The antiques placed on the antique shelves were all covered with glass covers. It was obvious that they were all extremely precious treasures and were worth a lot of money.
Tang Anni turned around and was attracted by a jade Ruyi. The jade was delicate, flawless, and extremely warm. There were also patterns of auspicious clouds painted on the surface.
In traditional culture, jade Ruyi means everything goes smoothly and auspiciously, so it is perfect as a birthday gift.
After looking at it for a moment, Tang Anni opened her lips slightly and asked: "Shopkeeper, how much does this Ruyi jade cost?"
"Miss, you have a good eye, and you can spot the treasure of our store at a glance! This jade is Ruyi, made of high-quality mutton-fat jade, and the price is eight million!" the boss said.
After hearing this, Tang Anni shook her head slightly and sighed quietly.
When the boss saw this, he frowned slightly and said in a deep voice: "Miss, you are shaking your head and sighing, are you dissatisfied? This store is a century-old store, the products are genuine and you are honest!"
"Shopkeeper, you misunderstood! I don't think the price is expensive, but I think it's a bit cheap!" Tang Anni explained.
"What?!"
When the boss heard this, he couldn't help but raise his voice a little, and he was extremely surprised.
It is true that eight million is not a huge number. Even antiques worth more than 100 million are still everywhere.
But treasures like that often appear in major auction houses.
Among the shops in this antique market, the main thing is small profits but quick turnover. It is rare to find treasures like that. Even if they are, they are hidden in the vault and will never be sold outside.
"Shopkeeper, do you have any more precious antiques here? I bought them for birthday celebrations for the elders in the family!" Tang Anni asked sincerely.
"This..." the boss thought for a moment and then said: "Miss, if you really want to buy it, you can try your luck at Rongbao Pavilion at the end of the antique market. There are many rare treasures there, and of course they are not worth much.
Fei!"
"Thank you!" Tang Anni said gratefully.
…
Soon, she and Ye Fan walked to the door of Rongbao Pavilion.
In terms of appearance, the value of Rongbao Pavilion is several times greater than that of other shops, especially the signboard on the threshold, with its brushwork of dragons and snakes, iron paintings and silver hooks, vigorous and powerful, revealing a heroic spirit, and it was obviously made by a famous artist.
As the two of them were about to go in, a waiter stopped them at the door and said:
"You two, please show me your invitation!"
"What invitation?" Ye Fan asked.
"I'm sorry, Rongbao Pavilion is holding a small treasure appreciation party today. No casual guests will be entertained! Only distinguished guests who have received invitations can enter! Since you two don't have invitations, just invite them back!" The waiter ordered the guests to be kicked out.
.
After hearing this, Tang Anni's eyes dimmed and her face looked disappointed. She didn't expect that all the way to Chaotian Palace would be in vain.
Ye Fan frowned slightly, thinking about how to get in.
At this moment, a slightly surprised voice came from behind him:
"Ye Jianxian, why are you here?"
Ye Fan looked back and found an old Taoist priest standing a few meters behind him. It was Master Wei who he met at Huixian Juzhong yesterday.
"Huh? What a coincidence! Master Wei, we meet again!" Ye Fan smiled slightly.
Hearing this, Master Wei was frightened and hurriedly came forward with half-hunched waist, saying respectfully: "Ye Jianxian, who am I as a 'master' in front of you? Just call me Xiao Wei!"
Hearing the Tao has its own order!
In front of Ye Fan, Master Wei would never dare to rely on his elders and act like a junior.
However, an old Taoist priest who was more than seventy years old nodded and bowed to a young man who was weak in age.
In the eyes of others, this scene is really strange.
The waiter at the door of Rongbao Pavilion was even more shocked, and his eyes almost popped out of his sockets.
Although the waiter did not know Master Wei's identity, the last time Master Wei visited, the big boss of Rongbao Pavilion personally came out to greet him, which represented his transcendent status.
And now, he surrenders to Ye Fan, what kind of terrifying identity should Ye Fan have?
…
"My friends and I wanted to visit Rongbao Pavilion, but unfortunately we didn't have an invitation, so we were turned down!" Ye Fan said.
When Master Wei heard this, he flew into a rage and yelled at the waiter at the door: "You are blind! Ye Jianxian's personal visit is a great honor for your Rongbao Pavilion. Why don't you get out of the way!"
As he spoke, the Taoist robe on Master Wei's body moved automatically without any wind, and the master's aura came out from his body, covering an area of more than ten meters.
Feeling the terrifying power, the waiter was shaken all over, as if he had been shocked by electricity. He dared not stop him and quickly took seven or eight steps back.
At this time, Master Wei put on an attentive smile again, bowed and made an invitation gesture, and said:
"Ye Jianxian, please come first!"
Ye Fan was not polite and walked into Rongbao Pavilion first with his head held high.
Tang Anni followed closely behind, quietly tugged at the corner of his clothes, and asked in a low voice: "Xiao Fan, what on earth is going on? What is Ye Jianxian?"
She deliberately emphasized the word "Sword Immortal" with a look of suspicion on her pretty face.
"Haha!" Ye Fan laughed loudly and said: "Annie, this matter is a long story, I will explain it to you later!"
Immediately afterwards, he turned to look at Master Wei and said, "You should stop calling me Ye Jianxian, please change your title!"
"This..." Master Wei hesitated for a moment and then changed his words: "Ye... Mr. Ye!"
"Yes!" Ye Fan nodded with satisfaction and continued to ask: "By the way, what's going on with this treasure appraisal meeting?"
"Mr. Ye, this Rongbao Pavilion is the top antique store in Jinling City and even the entire Jiangning Province! Every once in a while, a treasure appraisal meeting is held, inviting collectors and even people from the magic world to participate! This appraisal
Baohui, Pindao also received the invitation!" Master Wei explained.
"Oh I got it!"
Ye Fan secretly thought, it seems that in this treasure appraisal meeting, not only secular antiques are sold, but there may also be mysterious and extraordinary magic weapons.
For a moment, Ye Fan had some expectations.
…
Under the leadership of Master Wei, a group of three people arrived at the second floor of Rongbao Pavilion and entered a conference room.
The conference room is very large, covering hundreds of square meters. In the middle is a long table of more than ten meters, with dozens of chairs placed in the left and right rows.
On every chair, there is an old man sitting.
The youngest one is nearly sixty years old. Although he is old, he has extraordinary bearing. There are many Taoist priests wearing Taoist robes among them, and they are obviously very powerful monks.
However, Ye Fan's attention was immediately attracted by an old man sitting at the head.
Even from a long distance away, he could feel the strong aura of that person, standing out from the crowd and standing out.
At this time, Master Wei also discovered the existence of the old man, with a look of surprise on his face, and couldn't help but exclaimed:
