Chapter 443 - 443: The Former Manager Was Fired
“Who are you?”
Shu Yu took out the jade token. “I want to see your manager. I have something to sell.”
She was dressed in men’s clothes and looked very cold. She held a jade token in her hand and was familiar with the black market.
The man’s attitude became respectful as he led her to the side. “Please follow me.”
Returning to the familiar manor again, Shu Yu felt a little emotional.
After entering the manor, Shu Yu was invited to a room at the entrance to wait. He did not continue to enter.
“Guest, please wait here for a moment. This lowly one will report this to the steward.”
Shu Yu nodded. She stood in the room and looked around silently. She did not drink the tea that was sent.
Although she had the jade token in her hands, she was still on guard when the steward publicly snatched the painting from her uncle’s hands.
After waiting for the time it took to brew a cup of tea, a middle-aged man who looked rather capable walked over.
As soon as he entered, he smiled and said to Shu Yu, “Sorry for the long wait. Please take a seat.”
Shu Yu sat opposite him and sized him up before saying suspiciously, “The manager I saw last time doesn’t seem to be you.”
The middle-aged man was stunned and said indifferently, “He didn’t do his job well and is no longer working here.”
Bad job?
Shu Yu thought about it. It should be that Zhao Xi shouted that there was a thief back then and even made quite a big commotion, alarming the guests in the front hall.
The rules of the black market were so strict that they would investigate the matter of the thief after the incident.
After this investigation, they would probably find out that the manager had openly taken away the painting, causing his uncle to return to the black market to hide and try to steal the painting back. That was why this series of things happened.
The steward’s actions were indeed tarnishing the reputation of the black market. It was normal for him to be fired or punished.
Shu Yu was still quite happy in her heart. She thought that she would still have to face that manager this time and was wondering if she should take the opportunity to teach him a lesson.
There was no need for that now.
Shu Yu nodded at the middle-aged man in front of him and did not ask any more questions about the steward. “What’s your name, sir?”
“My surname is Guo.” Mister Guo went straight to the point. “I heard from my subordinates that the guest wanted to sell a treasure. I wonder what it is. Can I take a look?”
“Naturally, I still need Mister to appraise it.” Shu Yu took the bag from behind her and placed it on the table. She untied the bag and revealed the box inside.
This box was bought by Shu Yu. She spent one tael of silver. It was quite heartbreaking.
But there was no other way. Only good packaging could raise the price.
Shu Yu opened the box and revealed the glass mirror wrapped in a silk bag.
Mister Guo’s eyes widened when he saw the corner of the mirror. The glass mirror reflected his shocked expression.
“This is…”
“Mirror.” Shu Yu carefully took out the entire mirror. “This is an imported product. It’s different from the bronze mirrors here. The reflection is very clear. Mr. Guo can take a look. You can even see the shadow in your eyes.”
Even if Shu Yu did not say it, Mr. Guo had seen it.
He wiped his hands carefully with a cloth, then carefully took it and looked at it carefully.
The more he looked at it, the more he liked it. The more he looked at it, the more he couldn’t put it down. “Good stuff. This is really good stuff.”
