Chapter 225 The Hillbilly Enters the City

Shaking her waist-length black hair from behind, the woman turned around and walked towards the cab without looking back.

"Get in the car."

Meng Yan didn't waste any time and got into the back seat with her luggage.

Along the way, Meng Yan looked through the car window and saw that there were not many cars around, and couldn't help but feel a little confused.

Isn’t it said that there are so many people here in Kyoto that a group of cars are often stuck on the road?

The traffic on this road is smaller than the traffic on my home side.

"Didn't my cousin tell you when he came?" The woman looked at the country bumpkin and said with a little disgust.

"This highway is specifically designed to go directly from Honolulu to Kyoto Airport. Only people with real estate in Honolulu can take this highway."

"Even in Kyoto, most people can't afford a toilet in Honolulu even if they work hard all their lives. Do you understand?"

Meng Yan nodded: "I probably understand what you said."

"Tch." The woman turned her head disdainfully and continued driving.

"Don't put your luggage on the chair. This chair is made of real rhinoceros leather. It will be difficult to wash if it gets dirty."

"Let me tell you, my name is Shen Qiqi, and Shen Nongshi is my cousin. If you want to call me Sister Shen outside, you can't call me by my name directly, let alone Qiqi. Do you understand?! "

Meng Yan put the luggage under the car nonchalantly: "I know, my name is Meng Yan, just call me by my name."

"I know your name is Meng Yan."

Half an hour later, the two of them arrived in Honolulu from the Kyoto airport.

Looking at the Chinese-style buildings that looked like palaces, Meng Yan couldn't help but smack his lips.

The Longhu Villa in Lake City is nothing compared to this one.

The two people's car stopped in front of a luxurious courtyard villa. Looking at Meng Yan aside, Shen Qiqi couldn't help but feel a trace of disgust in her eyes.

As expected, he is a country bumpkin like Hu City who has never seen the world.

"Let's go in. After I put your things away, I have a party at the bar. You can follow me to see the world."

Meng Yan nodded, pulled his luggage and walked into the door.

After entering the villa, there is a long corridor with display stands sealed with glass on both sides of the corridor. Inside the display stands are many of my own antiques.

Meng Yan is very sure that these things are true.

"The cheapest among these antiques are calligraphy and paintings from the Qing Dynasty. If you are interested, you can take a look, but we have to leave after I change my clothes."

Shen Qiqi curled her lips. She had been preparing carefully for a long time to go to a bar party today, and her best friend was also coming.

As a result, my cousin suddenly called me yesterday and asked me to take care of a hick named Meng Yan from Lake City and take him to see the world in Kyoto in the next few days.

The plane landed at the same time as his own party, and he couldn't leave him alone at home. What if he stole something from his home?

After much thought, I had no choice but to take him with me.

"You can only look at it, don't even think about touching it with your hands, you know?!" Shen Qiqi said from the side like an order.

Meng Yan nodded. He had no intention of touching it.

Pulling the luggage, Meng Yan approached the nearest display cabinet, and Shen Qiqi on the side said.

"This is a blue and white porcelain luminous cup from the Tang Dynasty. Have you never seen it before? This technology has been lost. Nowadays, every time a piece of this kind of porcelain is dropped on the market, there will be one missing. This cup was originally bought at the Yubao Hall in Kyoto for 500 million."

"Is Yubaotang still in the business of auctioning antiques?" Meng Yan sounded a little surprised.

In Meng Yan's impression, Yubaotang was a company specializing in jade luxury goods. From Jia Baiyuan, he also learned that Yubaotang was a jade institution that had been passed down from ancient times and was a window to Xia's jade culture.

Shouldn't this kind of company be the kind of company that specializes in jade? Why do they still have a side business?

"Have you not read the news?" Shen Qiqi curled her lips disdainfully: "Kyoto is the home of Yubao Hall, and the venue is very large, so some grand antique auctions in the Xia Kingdom will also be held in the Yubao Hall venue."

"Ah, this ring on your hand is so beautiful, hand it over to me to see!" Shen Qiqi accidentally glanced at the ring on Meng Yan's hand and suddenly exclaimed.

The ring on this country bumpkin's hand seems to be glowing at this moment!

Meng Yan couldn't help but be startled when he heard Shen Qiqi's words. He lowered his head and glanced at the ring he was wearing on his hand.

The relic left to him by his grandfather, a black ring shell with white suet jade, was placed on the glass of the exhibition stand, and was faintly emitting a faint light.

Shen Qiqi believed that this light was the refraction of light, and Meng Yan, who had the blessing of magic eyes, could easily identify the direction and refraction of light in space.

Meng Yan was surprised to find a problem. Except for a small point that reflected the light on his ring, most of the rest of the light seemed to be emitted by the ring itself?!

"Show me quickly!" Shen Qiqi stretched out her hand to ask Meng Yan, but Meng Yan retracted his hand and shook his head.

"Isn't it just a ring? People from the countryside are so stingy, and I won't steal it from you!" Shen Qiqi said angrily.

Meng Yan shook his head: "This ring is a relic left by my grandfather to me. I will not take it off easily."

"Tsk, stingy is stingy. If you don't want to give it to me, just say so if you don't want to give it to me."

After Shen Qiqi said this, she turned around and left the corridor. Meng Yan didn't care about her after hearing this, and turned around again and put his hands on the exhibition stand.

The ring glowed white.

Meng Yan took a few steps forward and moved his hand closer to another exhibition stand.

This time, the light on the ring was less, and it only emitted a faint white light. It looked like jade with a more perfect texture.

"Tang Qiqi!" Meng Yan called from behind and stopped her when she was not far away. He pointed at the calligraphy and paintings in the exhibition stand and asked, "What era is this thing from?"

"You told me to call me Sister Tang!" Shen Qiqi replied angrily: "That's the cheapest Qing Dynasty calligraphy and painting I mentioned. It only cost 10 million."

Before Meng Yan brought the ring closer to several other antiques, the intensity of the light emitted was different.

After taking his hand back, the light from the ring disappeared.

"Could this thing be used to identify treasures?" Meng Yan stared at the ring on his hand, with a flash of doubt in his heart.

My Meng family's unique magic pupil can see clearly the water structure inside the original stone. Although this ability is very abnormal, there is no way to use it to identify antique treasures.

And with the existence of this ring, if it could really emit different lights to determine the authenticity of antiques, then combined with his magic eyes, Meng Yan would feel invincible.
