Master Xiang paused slightly and asked, "Oh? How do you say that?"

Butler Fei explained everything that happened in Wanbaozhai in great detail.

After hearing this, Mr. Xiang looked at his daughter beside him with some confusion."Daughter, when did you have such good eyesight?"

The Xiang family owns an antique shop, so her daughter naturally has some common sense and ability to monitor, but it is not outstanding. Unexpectedly, she made great contributions to the Xiang family this time.

"Sir, my lady's abilities are praised even by the ministers of Wanbaozhai." Steward Fei said happily.

"Really?" Mr. Xiang smiled at her."You're really embarrassing Mr. Xiang right now."

Lu Shiyan didn't think there was any big deal in pointing out that the porcelain vase was of the wrong age. She could only say that the trainee Chaofeng Kangning was not yet capable of taking charge on his own.

At this time, Mrs. Xiang came out from behind and asked, "Master, have you told Liping about that?"

Lu Shiyan was about to ask what was going on when she heard Master Xiang say anxiously——

"By the way, Boss Jin has sent someone to discuss the matter of taking over the house."

"Huh?" Lu Shiyan couldn't hide her surprise.

"We have already collected the bride price, and it is only a matter of time before we get married." Mr. Xiang continued, "Boss Jin means that the house will be officially closed on the seventh day of next month, and he will send someone to deliver it in two days..."

"I don't want it." Before she could finish telling the master, Lu Shiyan flatly refused with a cold face.

"Li Ping, what are you talking about?" Mrs. Xiang frowned."This has been agreed upon and cannot be refused."

"That's right!" Mr. Xiang was also a little excited."We have already received the bride price from Boss Jin, how can we say we won't get married?"

Lu Shiyan's eyes narrowed, "Then return the bride price to him."

"Where is the bride price?" Mr. Xiang looked worried."You've almost spent it, how can you pay it back?"

"Li Ping, don't think that your father and I are selling our daughter. We also want to..."

"Mom," Lu Shiyan interrupted: "He is older than dad, you want me to marry him?"

"This..." Mrs. Xiang looked ashamed."I...we have no choice but to do it. After all, at this juncture, only Boss Jin..."

"Father, mother," Lu Shiyan's attitude was extremely firm, even a little tough."We can pay him back the bride price slowly."

"Repay him?" Mr. Xiang couldn't help but shake his head."Li Ping, don't say such naive things. Boss Jin is not a good man or woman."

Lu Shiyan didn't care so much, she had already made up her mind."Are you going to let me commit suicide again?"

Seeing her being so tough and looking like she would rather die than give in, Mr. Xiang and Mrs. Xiang felt anxious and at a loss.

"Li Ping, if you don't marry, your mother and I won't be able to survive." Mr. Xiang said solemnly.

"No, dad." Lu Shiyan smiled confidently."There is no obstacle in the world that cannot be overcome. Our Xiang family will definitely be able to make a comeback."

Yes, Jin Xuehong believed that Xiang's family could make a comeback, and she also believed that she would protect and revitalize this family on Xiang Liping's behalf, not in a humble way or by selling her soul and body.

Seeing her confident and confident look, the Xiang family and his wife looked at each other again with hesitant and helpless expressions.

Early in the morning, there was a noise coming from the Xiang family's warehouse. Lu Shiyan rushed to find out what was going on, and saw that Mr. Xiang was madly smashing the high-end counterfeit goods piled up in the warehouse because of his emotional excitement.

"Dad! Dad!" She rushed forward and grabbed him."What are you doing?"

Master Xiang looked annoyed and beat his chest hard."Dad is useless, it's all dad's fault!"

"Dad, don't do this." Lu Shiyan held his hand hard and said forcefully: "Even if you beat yourself to death, it won't help."

Just beating your chest here won't solve the problem. When something happens, face it and solve it. This is what her father taught her since she was a child.

In fact, she thought that Mr. Xiang's irrational behavior was probably because he wanted to use both soft and hard tactics to force her to agree to marry Boss Jin, but she saw through his mind and would not take the bait.

"Dad, if you continue to do stupid things, I won't stop you." She let go of her hand and expressed her attitude again, "But I tell you, I will never marry Boss Jin."

Seeing that this plan was ineffective, Mr. Xiang slumped on the ground dejectedly and let out a long sigh.

"Oh, it's all my fault for being greedy and not checking carefully..." He looked at the useless fakes with tears of annoyance shining in the corners of his eyes.

Lu Shiyan picked up a broken porcelain vase, looked at it carefully, and said calmly: "Dad, these fakes are very well made. You can be forgiven for being unaware of them for a moment."

Master Xiang sighed again."These things are all rubbish and worthless."

"How could it be worthless?" She picked up another complete vessel and looked at it carefully.

"It's all false." Mr. Xiang growled angrily.

"Based on antiques, they are fake." Lu Shiyan's lips curled up."But as vessels, they are all good."

Hearing this, Mr. Xiang paused for a moment, unable to react."Li Ping, what did you say?"

"Dad, fakes can be sold for money. If you sell them as antiques, of course they are worthless, but if you sell them as ordinary utensils and objects, they are not bad."

"You mean..."

"As long as we don't lie to people and tell people it's fake, we can still sell it at a reasonable price in the market."

Master Xiang suddenly understood and stood up quickly, feeling energetic again."No, I, why didn't I think of that?"

Lu Shiyan smiled."Dad, I will sort these things into categories and transport them to the market tomorrow to sell them. They will definitely sell."

As soon as he finished speaking, Butler Fei hurried over and shouted: "Miss! Miss!"

While arranging the utensils at hand, she asked, "What's wrong?"

Butler Fei rushed in and saw Mr. Xiang was there. He was stunned for a moment, and then said hurriedly: "I remembered who the person I saw in Wanbaozhai was!"

Lu Shiyan didn't think this was anything serious, so she just asked calmly: "Who?"

"He was one of the people who came to sell these antiques back then!" Butler Fei replied eagerly.

Hearing this, Lu Shiyan and Mr. Xiang looked at each other in surprise.

"Old Fei, are you serious? Did you make a mistake?" Mr. Xiang grabbed him excitedly and asked.

"Absolutely, it's one of them." Butler Fei was very sure.

Lu Shiyan pondered for a moment and said with a serious expression: "It seems that those scammers are still continuing to cheat in the city..."

"That's right, it's so abominable!" Butler Fei couldn't hide his anger.

"Dad, if they are still in the city, or traveling to and from several nearby towns to defraud, there will definitely be a chance to catch them." She stared intently."We have to report it to the authorities immediately."

"Of course!" Mr. Xiang was equally indignant."Old Fei, go to the Yamen quickly!"

"Okay, sir." Butler Fei agreed, turned around and walked away.

But whether it was because he was impatient or because he was too old, Butler Fei ducked his back as soon as he turned around, causing him so much pain that he couldn't straighten his back.

"Steward Fei, are you okay?" Lu Shiyan hurriedly stepped forward to support him and asked with concern.

Butler Fei showed an apologetic expression."Miss, my waist... slipped."

"Tsk!" Mr. Xiang said angrily, "Why did you choose this time to step aside?"

Lu Shiyan said without thinking, "Dad, let me go! Without further ado, it would be terrible if these people leave Jing'an. I will go there myself and report what happened in Wanbaozhai to the official."

Master Xiang looked at Butler Fei, who had ducked his back, and then at his daughter, and could only nod helplessly."That's fine, you can go and come back as soon as possible."

Chapter 2(1)

Lu Shiyan hurriedly went to the government office to report to the officials so that those scammers could be brought to justice so that no one would be deceived again.

As she was about to cross the Embroidery Lane, two people suddenly jumped out of the secret place, startling her.

They were two strange men. Their four eyes looked at her gloomily, and her intuition told her that they were definitely not kind people.She instinctively turned around and wanted to leave from the other side, but as soon as she turned around, she saw someone behind her. It was the man who wanted to pawn the porcelain vase at Wanbaozhai that day, but she exposed him.

She was startled and secretly screamed that something was wrong.

"Stinky girl, I told you I would settle the score with you!" The man snorted and smiled sinisterly.

"You liars!" she glared at them angrily."It was you who tricked my father into buying fake and inferior goods, which caused Xiang's Antique Shop to close down and remove the plaque."
