"Where did this pauper come from, making bold claims without being able to wager anything!" Yan Ruyu furrowed her brows slightly and snorted coldly.
"Exactly, Master Yang, allowing such people into the Jubao Building only disrupts our mood!" Even the Young Master of the sect snorted coldly with dissatisfaction.
To think someone would call the item he presented a chamber pot was simply outrageous.
Master Yang frowned, noticing Xu the steward beside Qin Chen, and said coldly, "Xu Zheng, who are these people? Not participating in the treasure gamble, who allowed you to bring them here?"
Xu the steward immediately broke out in a cold sweat and hurriedly stepped forward, "Master Yang, these three are Young Master Chen and his friends, guests of our Jubao Building, who have just spent here. Young Master Chen is the grandson of King Ding Wu, the champion of this year's year-end exam at Tianxing Academy. As the saying goes, guests are guests, and we at Jubao Building do business with an open door. There's no reason to drive guests out!"
Xu the steward's words not only clarified Qin Chen and his friends' identities but also explained the situation.
After all, in terms of status, he was far inferior to Master Yang. If the latter got angry, he could be dismissed and sent packing in no time.
"Hmph, while our Jubao Building does business and welcomes guests, not everyone is allowed in. Some people we simply do not welcome."
Master Yang snorted coldly.
He was genuinely angry.
In fact, the price he had quoted earlier was indeed exaggerated.
After all, this was a treasure gamble at his Jubao Building. If he didn't exaggerate a bit, who would come in the future?
Who would spend money at his Jubao Building for treasure gambling?
Now, an item gambled by the Young Master of the sect was called a chamber pot by someone else. If he didn't make a stand, how would Jubao Building continue doing business? How would it stand in the capital?
"Did you hear that? Master Yang says you're not welcome."
"Xu the steward, aren't you going to drive these kids out of the Jubao Building?"
"Two country bumpkins, if you don't understand, don't speak nonsense. Such a treasure unearthed from the secret realm of Sheng Luo is not something you can comprehend!"
"Nonsense."
Many young men and women present, and even some wealthy adults, immediately mocked as if facing a vendetta.
Questioning Master Yang's appraisal? They should first look at themselves in the mirror.
Master Yang's judgment couldn't possibly be wrong, right?
"This..."
Listening to everyone's criticism, Xu the steward glanced at Master Yang and then at Qin Chen and his friends, showing a rather embarrassed expression, caught in a dilemma.
"Xu Zheng, are you not going to drive these people out?"
Master Yang snorted coldly again.
"Young Master Chen, did I say something wrong?" Zhang Ying said with a pale face, somewhat nervous.
"Should we leave first?" Lin Tian also said nervously.
Offending the appraisal master of Jubao Building, even their fathers probably wouldn't dare to linger.
"Since this Jubao Building doesn't welcome us, we'll just leave. However, you didn't speak incorrectly; this teapot is indeed just a chamber pot. It's unfortunate that some people, seeking fame, regard it as a true treasure, which is truly laughable."
Qin Chen sneered. Since they weren't welcome, he wouldn't insist on staying, and he turned to leave with Lin Tian and Zhang Ying.
"Stop right there. How dare you call the genuine treasure appraised by this master a chamber pot! You won't leave until you clarify this with me!"
Suddenly.
A terrifying pressure spread out, like a mountain pressing heavily on Qin Chen and his friends.
Boom!
Zhang Ying and Lin Tian almost stumbled under the impact of this pressure, their faces turning pale.
If not for Qin Chen supporting them, the two might have already fallen to the ground.
Even so, the clothes on their backs were immediately soaked with cold sweat.
"Kid, if you have the guts, say it again."
Master Yang's eyes widened in anger, like an enraged lion, his eyes sharp as swords, piercing towards Qin Chen.
