The poorest rich man novel (Chen Hao) novel Chapter 511

She wanted to buy him dinner?

Chen Hao was coincidentally on his way to dinner anyway.

Since someone had offered to buy him dinner, it was surely better than having to fork out money from his own pocket.

“Sure!” Chen Hao agreed.

“You!”

Zhang Min was speechless toward this young man in front of her.

Nonetheless, girls admired heroes; although Chen Hao was not a hero, he did help her out.

Moreover, Chen Hao had good looks, which made people subconsciously want to approach him.

Thus, Zhang Min brought Chen Hao to a restaurant.

The two of them had a chat and they slowly became acquainted with each other.

“So, you’re here on vacation, what a coincidence!” said Zhang Min.

“How is it a coincidence?”

“Don’t you know? Starting tomorrow, the Lu Family of Long Jiang is going to hold a treasure exchange convention for three days! It’s happening one month earlier than the one last year, and yet you still managed to make it! People from all over the world, including those from overseas, come to this yearly treasure exchange convention. The number of people that will be joining the convention is just bewildering!” Zhang Min explained.

“Oh, I’ve only heard about conventions for antiques exchange. I’ve never heard of a treasure exchange convention!” Chen Hao shook his head and smiled in an awkward manner.

“Antiques exchange conventions are nothing compared to this. The exchange convention this year has everything; not only does it include antiques, it also has treasures of different shapes and sizes. As long as you have a treasure, you can take it out and exhibit it. Let’s take a jade bangle for example. If you were to sell it yourself, you could probably sell it for ten thousand. However, once it has passed through the procedures of the exchange convention, you might be able to sell it for a hundred thousand, or fetch an even higher price here at the convention!”

“I understand now. However, that is something the rich indulge in. If I were to go there, I would only be looking from the sides. Furthermore, those antiques and treasures all look similar, and I don’t have much knowledge of those things!” Chen Hao replied smilingly.

“No way! I see that you’re quite a smart person. Since you have the audacity to talk this way, I'll let you in on a secret. Nobody except for people with inside information knows about this matter!”

Zhang Min suddenly lowered her voice.

Chen Hao ate a mouthful of the Sichuan boiled fish and gulped down his drink, hinting at Zhang Min to continue.

“There was a magic tool that appeared in the exchange convention four years ago. It was an ancient magic tool that had been sanctified and had letter engravings on it!” said Zhang Min.

Chen Hao sniggered and nearly spat his drink out of his mouth.

“Are you serious?”

Chen Hao’s attitude had pissed Zhang Min off once again.

“Just because you have not seen it with your own eyes does not mean I'm lying to you. That item was an enigma and it belonged to a Dao priest long ago. Anyway, it could fend off evil spirits if you put it in your home. Unfortunately, a foreigner from the Japanese archipelago had bought it at a high price and in less than half a year’s time, that rich businessman’s mother, who suffered from a serious illness, was healed miraculously. His mother was 98 years old four years ago and although she is 102 years old now, she is still very fit! Furthermore, an ancient knife was auctioned off just last year and according to sources, that was a magic tool as well. Nonetheless, things like these happen a lot during the conventions. The articles may look like precious antiques on the outside, but it is the essence that matters the most. All those people who come from overseas have come here for this reason alone!” said Zhang Min.

Chen Hao put down his cup of wine and he could not help but frowned.

She did not look like she was making this up since she spoke so seriously of it.

Although Chen Hao did not say a word at all just now, he knew that magic tools existed and he just wanted Zhang Min to spit out more information.

The Sun Totem that belonged to his grandfather was also clearly a type of ancient magic tool.

Since a long time ago, the rise of every major family had to draw support from some mysterious power.

He had heard his grandfather talk about a dispute between the Fang Family and the Chen Family regarding half a piece of jade.

The jade was the magic tool for the Chen Family as well as the Fang Family; it symbolized the two families' vital energy and luck.
