fore him.
He had to use his ace in the hole.
“If you don’t compete with me, I’ll give you a bottle of peach-blossom wine of 10 years,” Master Yan said to Master Fu.

Hearing that, Master Fu’s eyes were bright.
He stopped competing for the ink-slab, but bargained, “Two bottles.”

Master Yan frowned.
He was reluctant to do that.

But for the ink-slab, he compromised at the end.
“Fine, two bottles.” Master Yan clenched his teeth.

After that, Master Fu was pleased.
He went back to his seat.

And Master Yan then realized Gu Ning hadn’t agreed to sell the ink-slab yet.

“Well, girl, could you please sell it to grandpa Yan?” Master Yan looked at Gu Ning with sincerity.
It seemed the ink-slab was a part of his body.
If Gu Ning took it back, it would be like cutting meat from his flesh.

Master Yan right now was completely different from that serious old man before.

Actually, the reason why Gu Ning invited Master Yan to identify the ink-slab was that she intended to sell it to him.

She wasn’t sure Master Yan would want it, but since he was an expert of antiques, he probably wasn’t willing to miss a real antique.

“Of course,” Gu Ning replied.

Master Yan was more than happy now.
“Very well, girl! I’m not going to lie to you either.
This ink-slab is from the Qianlong period.
It belonged to the famous poet, book painter and Laizhou prefect, Zhang Wentao.
It is worth around five million yuan.
I’ll pay you five million yuan.
It’s an acceptable price for both of us.”

“No problem,” Gu Ning agreed without hesitation.
She didn’t care about the price as long as it was acceptable.

“Girl, if you’re lucky again next time, you must sell it to me first!” Although he stopped competing with Master Yan, Master Fu was still a little displeased.

Gu Ning smiled slightly.
“Grandpa Fu, you’ve abandoned the ink-slab for two bottles of peach-blossom wine.
I assume you must be a wine lover.
I have a wine cup with me here.
Do you want to have a look?”

Saying this, Gu Ning then took out the wine cup from her backpack.

Both Master Yan and Master Fu were struck dumb for a second.
They all thought to themselves: is she being lucky again?

If she had been lucky again, she must be a lucky girl indeed! Or, she must have her own ability.

Master Fu sat close to Gu Ning.
Once she pulled the cup out, Master Fu grabbed it and stared at it.

But he wasn’t an expert after all.
He then immediately gave it to Master Yan.
“Master Yan, take a look now.”

With doubts in heart, Master Yan took the wine cup from Master Fu at once.

The wine cup was round, straight, covered with a deep abdomen, a beast ring and three feet.
It was the shape of the wine cups from the Tang Dynasty.

Then Master Yan focused on its material and marks.

Master Fu sat aside looking at Master Yan with anxiety.
He opened his mouth several times, wanting to ask for the result, but didn’t want to bother him as well.

Master Yan was increasingly excited.
“It’s real! It’s from the Tang Dynasty.
It’s a royal wine cup from the Wu administration.”

“What? Really?” Master Fu jumped up from his seat out of excitement.

Seeing that, Gu Ning felt worried for Master Fu.
She didn’t want to see him fall.

“Yes! It must be a real one.
There are several royal wine cups in the museum too.
I’m familiar with them,” Master Yan replied.

“Ha-ha, Ha-ha! I like it!” Master Fu laughed out loud in happiness.
He was afraid Master Yan would compete with him, so he grabbed the wine cup back.
Both Gu Ning and Master Yan were speechless.
