The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 99

The next day was already the weekend. 1

Jacob dragged Charlie out of the house and they drove to Antique Street early in the morning. 2

The old man looked very refreshed and energetic, and upon stepping out of the car, Jacob waved his hand at Charlie as he said, "Come! Let me show you how you can pick up a good product!" 1

After that, both of them started walking down Antique Street. 1

Charlie had to walk quickly to keep up with Jacob. Regardless, he continued to look around him as he walked along the street. 3

Since it was the weekend, there were a lot more people on Antique Street as compared to usual.

Antique Street was very dense on both sides of the street as there were many vendors who came out to set up their stalls during the weekend, and so, the whole street was very packed. 2

Many vendors simply placed a plastic sheet on the ground as they welcomed guests and customers to check out all the various kinds of antiques and jades placed on the ground. 1

Charlie looked around casually and realized that there were barely any genuine products in the entire

market. In fact, most of the vendors here set up their stalls to trick laymen, tourists, and foreigners. 1

Most of the tourists who bought the antiques did not know the value of the item, and they would often be grinning as they held the imitation product in their hand, thinking they had gotten a good bargain for themselves. 2

"Over here!” 1

Jacob stopped in front of a simple stall, his face filled with excitement and expectations.

A few tourists were standing around the stall at this time, looking through the variety of antiques. Jacob quickly joined the crowd because he was afraid that h e might lose out on a good deal. 2

Charlie took a good look around the stall. The stall was nothing more than a piece of oiled paper that had been spread over the ground with several dozen mud-stained antiques placed on it. There were blue and white horses, some copper coins, copper wine cups, jade bracelets, and yellowed calligraphy paintings. 1

Even though there was a dazzling array of items, Charlie could tell that it was all fake just by glancing a t the items. 1

The owner of the stall was a skinny and dark-skinned man who was dressed in a simple and casual dark blue t-shirt. His hair was very greasy and disheveled, and yet, he had a straightforward and honest appearance. 4

"Look at this!” Jacob said to Charlie excitedly as he pointed at a colorful bottle that had a big mouth. He then spoke in a low voice, "This is the wine bottle that will complete my celadon cups! If I buy this wine bottle today, I can make my celadon cups a set so that the price can be doubled!” 3

Charlie glanced at the wine bottle before picking it up and turning around to face the owner of the stall.

"How much is this?”
