Chapter 644 - 644: Warring States Flask



Upon glimpsing a ray of hope, the elderly lady enthusiastically guided Luo Feng through her toy warehouse.

The warehouse was a treasure trove of antiquated toys.

Jardins had a unique fascination with these toys, presenting them to Luo Feng with fervor.

She detailed which toy had been her childhood favorite, which one she had preserved the longest, and which ones she had recommended the elderly lady to stock, among others.

Jardins spoke with a passion that didn’t seem to fade.

It was as if she was sharing her cherished collection with a dear friend.

Initially, Luo Feng had been set on declining to assist this toy wholesale market. However, Jardins’ infectious enthusiasm swayed him.

Despite this, the antiquated nature of the toy factory and its inconvenient location made the prospect of a successful business venture seem bleak.

Given the shop’s location, it would likely be better suited as a logistics company.

Moreover, such a company would align perfectly with Luo Feng’s needs. If the elderly lady was amenable, Luo Feng wouldn’t hesitate to provide financial support.

However, judging by the reactions of both the elderly woman and Jardins, he sensed that this prospect was far-fetched.

Just as Luo Feng was about to share his reservations with Jardine, he spotted an object, tinged with bronze and peppered with rust, in a corner of the warehouse.

The object bore the appearance of an antique, but Luo Feng knew the probability of unearthing such a gem in this place was slim.

Nonetheless, he decided to investigate.

What if it was indeed an antique?

Even if it wasn’t worth a fortune, its sale might provide the elderly woman with some financial respite.

With this in mind, Luo Feng initiated a scan, and indeed, a faint but large red dot emerged in the corner.

This was an anomaly Luo Feng had never encountered before, leading him to question the reliability of his system.

Driven by curiosity, he approached the antique.

Upon taking it into his hands, the system immediately unveiled its history.

This artifact was actually a fragment of a flat flask from the Warring States period!

A complete version of this artifact would undoubtedly qualify as a national treasure!

However, this mere fragment held little collectible value. Furthermore, due to prolonged exposure to the air, its surface had almost entirely oxidized.

In essence, it had become virtually worthless.

Luo Feng felt a pang of helplessness, but he ventured to ask,

“Grandma, do you remember where this came from?”

After a moment of contemplation, the elderly woman failed to recollect anything.

Given her advanced age, expecting her to remember such details was far-fetched.

Just as Luo Feng was on the brink of surrender, the elderly woman returned to her desk. After rummaging through an invoice she’d retrieved from a drawer, she responded,

“This was amongst a pile of toys that Mr. Mike’s son discarded last year.”

“I didn’t notice at the time. The toys seemed in good condition, and it seemed a waste to just let them be discarded, so I collected them all.”

After revealing this, the old lady produced a box, “The toys in this box were all discarded by their family.”

Upon checking the box with his system, Luo Feng discovered that many of the toys were mixed with copper rust. Their reactions were nearly identical to that of the bronze fragment, indicating they must have been in contact with the Warring States flask for a significant period!

This strongly suggested the existence of a bronze flask in Mike’s house!

If true, this single clue would prove invaluable.

Without hesitation, Luo Feng turned to the elderly woman and Jardins, “Indeed, I find myself in agreement with Jardins. I am genuinely interested in this wholesale market. I plan to invest and provide you with a comprehensive management plan.”

“But I have pressing matters to attend to right now. I will return later to discuss it in more detail.”

As Luo Feng concluded his statement, he made to leave but was intercepted by Jardins.

Jardins looked anxious, suspecting that Luo Feng was attempting to escape discreetly.

After all, despite her lofty claims, Jardins was acutely aware that securing an investment for this toy wholesale market was no easy feat.

And to expect it from Luo Feng, a man she’d known for only two days?

However, in the presence of the elderly woman, Jardins couldn’t voice her suspicions and could only signal Luo Feng with her eyes.

Luo Feng immediately understood Jardins’ intentions and reassured her with a friendly smile,

“Rest assured, I am sincere in my intentions. I do indeed have a pressing matter to attend to right now. At the latest, I will return by tonight..”
