The salesman nodded slightly before he said, “You can come back here again if you want to buy the sofa set from us.”When they turned around, Lady Wilson had already disappeared with the rest of her family.Jacob went to several shops selling Lexington wood furniture but he did not see any sofa sets that he liked.Elaine felt very anxious at this time and so, she proposed that they should just buy the other furniture for the bedroom and dining room first. Otherwise, they would have just made a wasted trip to the Furniture City today.Jacob also felt that it was not feasible for them to continue wasting time like this. Therefore, they went to check out the other shops instead.Elaine chose a bed that cost tens of thousands of dollars for herself whereas Claire simply chose a bedroom set that cost about ten thousand dollars. At this time, they also bought some furniture such as wardrobes, a dining table, and so forth for the bedrooms and the living room.They even bought all the ho

Jacob was very excited when he heard his brother’s question. He replied excitedly, “Of course it’s true! I’m willing to pay 1.2 million dollars for it!”Christopher replied, “Okay, since you really want it, then you can transfer the money over to Mom’s bank account. After that, we’ll consider the furniture sold to you.”Jacob was very satisfied and he quickly replied, “Alright then. Why don’t you send the sofa set over to our villa at Thompson First now? After the sofa set is unloaded at the villa, I’ll pay up immediately.”Christopher hesitated for a moment on the other end of the line before he replied, “Okay then. The sofa set is already in the truck now and we can transport it over to the villa at any time now.”Jacob hurriedly replied, “Okay, I will meet you at the villa at Thompson First then! See you there!”After he was done speaking, Jacob hung up the phone immediately before he said excitedly, “Charlie, you’ve guessed it correctly! They are going to sell the sofa set to

However, the person who was going to live here was none other than Claire, whom she had always despised and looked down on!As she thought about this, Wendy also said, “Grandma, I’ll come with you too!”After she was done speaking, she quickly hurried forward as she supported her grandmother’s arm on one side while her brother held onto her grandmother’s other arm.The grandmother and her grandchildren walked into the living room as they observed the splendid and amazing decorations and renovation in the house. They were so amazed that they could not even say anything at all.The ceiling in the oversized living room was more than ten meters high and there was a huge, luxurious golden crystal chandelier in the middle of the living room. The light reflecting from the crystal chandelier was so colorful and bright. It was so beautiful that it was simply suffocating!Lady Wilson could not help but feel her legs trembling as she stood in the luxurious living room.Compared to this vill

The expression on everyone’s faces changed as soon as they heard Lady Wilson’s words!The first person who had a change of expression was none other than Elaine!She instantly understood the old lady’s intentions!She was really incredible! She was really a sly fox! She was simply pretending to give them the set of furniture because she wanted to move into their villa!She was finally able to get rid of the old lady and the Wilson family. She was finally able to live an even better life compared to the Wilson family and she was finally able to crush the Wilson family under her feet.As a result, the old lady was simply trying to suck up to them just so she could move into their huge and luxurious villa, wasn’t she?Why didn’t she just take a piss and look at her own reflection instead? Did she really deserve to stay here in the villa with them?Jacob was not a fool either. In fact, he had been seriously moved with the old lady’s generosity at first. However, in the very next sec

Jacob also nodded repeatedly at this time.He already knew what it felt like to have a shrewd woman in the house. It felt as though he was constantly treading on thin ice.If there were two shrewd women in the house, then it would not be a home at all.Therefore, he could only harden his heart as he said, “Mom, why don’t you give me your bank account number? I will transfer the money over to you right now. Otherwise, you can take your furniture back and we can just ask the porters to move the furniture out of the villa now.”Lady Wilson was very angry as she pointed her finger at Jacob. At this time, she rushed forward to give him a slap across her face. Fortunately, Jacob reacted fast enough and he took two steps backwards quickly, so the old lady did not manage to hit him.Lady Wilson was trembling in anger because of her Jacob’s attitude. What was even more depressing was the face that she would not have the opportunity to enjoy living in such a huge and luxurious villa. This m

Christopher was waiting for them outside the villa. When he saw the old lady coming out of the villa with his son and daughter, he hurried forward and asked immediately, “Mom, did you get the money from them?”Lady Wilson had a very black face as she said, “Yes. Let’s go!”When he saw that Lady Wilson seemed to be very angry, Christopher hurriedly grabbed Howard before he asked in a low voice, “What happened? Why is your grandmother so angry?”Harold waited for his younger sister and grandmother to walk a little further away before he whispered, “Dad, Grandma is really the worst!”“Why are you talking about your grandma that way?” Christopher could not help but reprimand his son at this time. “We’re all depending on your grandmother now. How could you say that about her? What’s going to happen if she hears you?”Harold replied angrily, “Dad! Do you know what Grandma said to Second Uncle? She told him that she would be willing to give him the sofa set for free as long as he was wil

The layout of the second floor was exactly the same as the third floor. There were three rooms on each floor and two of it were large bedrooms with two smaller bedrooms.The large bedroom was similar to a suite with a living area outside and a bathroom inside.Charlie and Claire naturally chose this bedroom. After that, they decided to give the bedroom next to them to Loreen.There was another room on the second floor and Claire planned to turn it into her study room. She often had to do design drawings and construction plans for her company and she needed a room where she could do all of her work.Charlie and Claire looked around the bedroom. At this time, Charlie deliberately asked Claire, “My dear wife, the bed that we’ve bought for the room is about two meters wide, right?”“Yes.” Claire nodded before she said, “Since the bedroom is so big, it wouldn’t look nice if we choose a smaller bed.”Charlie chuckled before she said, “Then, wouldn’t it be a little too big for you to sl

Jacob started panicking as soon as Elaine spoke.He knew that Elaine had secretly tried to unlock his cell phone and thought that Elaine would certainly guess his password incorrectly since he had already changed his cell phone password. However, he really did not expect Elaine to know that he had changed his password to Matilda’s birth date!This made him feel a little flustered and a little afraid at the same time!Fortunately, he had set up a separate payment verification password. Otherwise, Elaine would have already taken all of his money away!When Elaine saw that Jacob was hesitating, Elaine lashed out at him immediately. She gritted her teeth at him as she cursed, “Weren’t you being very arrogant and acting all mighty in front of me for the past two days? You were scolding me and lashing out at me without even giving me any face at all. Why are you keeping quiet now? Don’t tell me that I’ve guessed all of your dirty thoughts correctly!”Jacob blurted out, “Stop talking any

Trippy rolled his eyes as he texted back: [Hell no. I need to start my business instead of wasting my time. You morons can come get a number yourself if you like. Haha!]Still, Trippy had just sent his text when a trio arrived in a hurry outside Treasure Measure.Seeing that the doors were closed, the leader asked Trippy, "Excuse me, can I ask if this is Treasure Measure? Owned by a man named Mr. Cole?"Trippy was at once surprised. "You mean Raymond Cole?"The leader quickly said, "We don't know his first name, only that his last name is Cole, and his handle name was Treasure Measure's Mr. Cole."Trippy chuckled. "That'd be him. Has to be, since he hand wrote that shop sign."Pausing, he then asked in curiosity, "So, you've come to see him being a sucker?"The leader was naturally curious as to what Trippy was talking about. However, he was also reluctant to reveal why he had come since there was a killer bargain at stake. In fact, every other collector who was coming was k

Raymond also added that the 20 million price tag wouldn't be cut or increased. To put it simply, the bronze sculpture was right there in Aurous Hill and waiting—it was a race.Hence, many reputable collectors contacted expert appraisers throughout the night, some even booking night flights straight to Aurous Hill.The best amongst them was a fanatic collector of bronze items in Eastcliff.Following a brief exchange with Raymond online, he immediately called an expert who was also a close friend. As soon as his call was answered, he asked the other man if he had time to travel to Aurous Hill so that no one else would beat them to it—and they would drive out in the night if at all possible.After all, the earliest flight was at six in the morning, and it'd be eight by the time they made it to Aurous Hill Airport and nine by the time they got to Antique Street in a cab.Therefore, the ideal way to get there was by driving over six hundred miles at top speed, and that meant reaching A

While Jacob was feeling delighted after pulling off his con, Raymond had posted details of the bronze sculpture online.The website he was using was the biggest platform for antique collectors and the antique trade where each user could set a favorite tag in the antique category and era. If a user who preferred canvas art pieces of the Tudor dynasty set that label as their favorite, they would immediately be notified with text or desktop notifications in regards to any item with the same label.As medieval bronze sculptures were rare in the first place, most who were interested had already set that label on their favorites and were immediately notified soon after Raymond posted pictures of the bronze sculpture online.The collectors were naturally eager to check it out as gilded sculptures of the medieval era were really rare, and most collectors would go a lifetime without picking one up for their collection.On top of that, the seller had even listed a major flaw and was only ask

"Nope," Jacob chuckled. "We were both working separately and just happened to get back in at the same time."Then, he immediately became smug and excited, "Guess what, dear? I made 200 thousand out of the deal! In net profits!""For real?!" Elaine gaped. "200 thousand in just one night?! That's amazing! How did you do that?"Claire was surprised to hear that too, and she came over to ask, "What deal was it, Dad?"Jacob grinned, "Oh, it's nothing to brag about. It's just that I managed to pick up a nice antique item thanks to my wisdom and then sold it for 200 thousand."Pausing, he then sighed in dismay, "However, the buyer wasn't too rich—I would have squeezed him for 400 thousand, but he couldn't afford more, so I had to settle for less."Elaine quickly exclaimed, "Shit, we're talking about a loss of 200 thousand! People would work a year and still never earn that much…"She trailed off for a moment before asking, "By the way, dear—are we still flying out first thing tomorrow?

Jacob laughed. "Put that issue behind us? Sure, but we're not becoming friends. Hell, I can't even hold a grudge now that you're shit out of luck."Then, his tone changed sharply and suddenly became icy, "But you see, Aurous Hill is not a place you can stay just because you want to. No… After this, you're not going to be able to make a living in the antique trade.""If I were you, I'd be running a thousand miles away, far away from Aurous Hill where no one would know my face to start over. That way, you just might be able to make a living."Raymond simply kept smiling, "You need not be concerned about how I'm going to survive here, Mr. Wilson. I'd be very grateful if you'd cease any form of harassment once you leave my premises."Jacob pursed his lips, staring at Raymond in disappointment. "I'm plenty magnanimous, so I won't stoop to such pettiness. Just do whatever you like!"Clicking his tongue, he huffed, "Tut, tut… And here I'd thought you're tough, but you're just yet another

Raymond chuckled at the title, humble as ever, "The Duke of Wastage? Now, that's quite the royal title, and I don't think I deserve such an honor…"Trailing off, he then made an especially curious look, "By the way, how'd you know they were calling me that?"Seeing that he was still so ignorant, Jacob scoffed. "You bought a Renaissance-era bronze sculpture earlier, didn't you?"Raymond nodded. "I did. But technically, it's medieval and not Renaissance, along with a Renaissance-era base."Jacob clutched his stomach as he laughed, "Oh, please! Medieval? Hahaha… You're killing me, Mr. Cole!"Raymond kept a serious look on his face. "It's really medieval. Why don't you take a look?""No way," Jacob snorted, pursing his lips. "Anyway, word has already spread that someone was selling a counterfeit bronze sculpture to defraud Antique Street for some serious dough. He went first to Vintage Deluxe, but their manager, Mr. Crane, saw through it and didn't buy it… and then he came to you, an

That was why most of the collectors only knew that such an item existed but they did not know in whose possession it was.After registering a new account and paying the ten thousand registration fee, Raymond got in.It was very safe as it was anonymous, and he posted a photo of the bronze sculpture and an announcement with an asking price of twenty million.In his opinion, it wasn't that expensive—if it was still gilded, it would be worth around a hundred million. Without it, it was plenty reasonable to cut the price down to just thirty million.And Raymond was cutting another ten million off that, so twenty million was plenty reasonable.Moreover, medieval bronze sculptures were exceedingly rare, and less than one specimen showed up annually at times. Collectors who desired it would therefore be willing to break the bank for it, and that was why Raymond was sure that someone would put in an order once he posted it.As he wrote the summary of the item, someone knocked on his door

Jacob frowned in disdain. "Why would I be worried? He's no longer the manager of Vintage Deluxe, and he just lost a shit ton of money for messing up his appraisal. I am also the vice president of the Calligraphy and Painting Association, so why would I be worried about some loser who will soon be kicked out of Antique Street?"Straightening his collar, he snorted coldly, "I am now going to see Raymond Cole and humiliate him face-to-face! He thinks he's impressive, doesn't he? Let's see how he will keep up that facade!"Zachary chuckled, "Yes, exactly! People like him need to be given a slap in the face! As hard as you can! Don't worry—I'll be right behind you. If he gets physical, I'll rush in to help. If he doesn't dare to start a fight, you just insult him as much as possible!""Good plan!" Jacob nodded since he was concerned that Raymond might get physical when pushed too far.And with his body, there was no way he could beat anyone…Spreading his arms, he exclaimed, "Come! I'l

Mick inspected every video to see who was getting the most views, and he then paid out of his own pocket to use paid advertising to get the video viral.It cost five thousand and it hurt, but reaching the trending page was definitely worth it.Mick was quite shrewd too, making sure that the paid advertising was focused locally. After all, he knew all too well that five thousand didn't buy many clicks, and clicks from elsewhere might be too sporadic to gain any worthwhile attention.As he worked in Antique Street, he naturally had to come up with a plan to promote himself in this place, ideally presenting himself as a master appraiser.That way, his fame would slowly extend throughout the province and perhaps Eastern Oskia, and eventually the country.As such, focusing on Aurous Hill was the best idea.Moreover, he also had another idea—if Jasmine Moore happened to see this video, she would see him in a new light.When that happened, he could look forward to getting really rich!
