I just got divorced, and a rich and beautiful woman dragged me to get a marriage certificate.
Chapter 90 Copper Coins!
After Wang Fang left, the clinic became quiet.
Lin Qingyin looked at Chen Mo, her tone full of protectiveness: "If she bothers you again, just come to me, and I'll help you solve it!"
"That sounds a bit odd, but don't worry, I can handle this!"
Chen Mo smiled.
Lin Qingyin nodded, not continuing the topic, and glanced at Liu Xin:
"I just watched the live stream, and Liu Xin said you know how to gamble on stones. Is that true?"
"I know a little!"
Chen Mo nodded.
Upon hearing this, Liu Xin couldn't help but interject, "Old Chen, you're being too modest! You don't just know a little, you know a ton!"
"Ask the viewers in the live stream, wasn't that blue jadeite worth eight million? Is that what you call knowing a little bit?"
[Haha, Liu Xin seems even more excited than Chen Mo.]
[If Chen Mo says he knows a little, then what do we say?]
[Winning every time you gamble—honestly, that's just too outrageous.]
Lin Qingyin brushed a strand of hair behind her ear: "I need to give a gift to a client soon, and he really likes these things! Honey, can you help me pick one out?"
[Ding! Side quest triggered: Select raw gems for Lin Qingyin!]
[Mission Objective: Help Lin Qingyin select a jadeite rough stone worth no less than 1000 million]
[Mission Rewards: 3 Free Attribute Points, Basketball God]
Hearing the system notification, Chen Mo's heart skipped a beat; the system task had finally been triggered again.
It's now completely certain that only by being with a rich woman can you trigger the system mission and receive rewards.
However... the God of Basketball is actually a pretty good skill.
Chen Mo loves playing basketball. From elementary school to university, and even after graduation when he started working, he would go to the basketball court in his spare time.
When you're tired from work, play a game of ball, work up a sweat... it feels so good!
Chen Mo never considered playing professional basketball; his physical talent simply didn't allow it.
With this skill, I can dominate the basketball court from now on.
"Of course! My wife's business is my business!" Chen Mo said with a smile.
Lin Qingyin smiled sweetly, her beautiful eyes brimming with undisguised joy: "Then let's go!"
Liu Xin perked up immediately when she heard that the two were going to gamble on stones.
"Hey guys! Old Chen's off to gamble on jade! You're in for a treat today, he'll show you what he's got to do!"
"As the saying goes, one cut makes you poor, one cut makes you rich, one cut leaves you in rags!"
"Old Chen hit all five stones before; will he be able to create another miracle today? Let's wait and see!"
The live chat is buzzing again.
[Is it real? Going to gamble on jade? Is it being streamed live?]
[Liu Xin's tone sounds like that of a live-streaming salesperson!]
[Waiting for Lao Chen's performance! I'm already ready to record! If he switches to Imperial Green again, I'll be impressed.]
Don't brag! Gambling on jade is all about luck.
Chen Mo frowned slightly upon hearing Liu Xin's words: "Old Liu, are you going to do a live stream?"
"No... is that not allowed?"
Liu Xin was taken aback.
Chen Mo was silent for two seconds, then waved his hand: "Fine, whatever you want!"
"Honey, let's go!"
"OK!"
Lin Qingyin took Chen Mo's arm and left the clinic.
The sunlight shone on the two of them, their shadows overlapping, making it impossible to tell who was whose.
"Hey guys, let's go gamble on stones!" Liu Xin quickly followed.
The antique market remains unchanged; the stone-paved road is smooth and shiny from the wear and tear of time, and the shops on both sides are lined up one after another.
Chen Mo and Lin Qingyin walked ahead, like a couple deeply in love, chatting and laughing intimately.
Liu Xin followed behind, her phone camera pointed at the antique market:
"Hey guys, this is the antique market, the biggest antique market in Da'an!"
"This is where they sell calligraphy and paintings, that's where they sell porcelain, and if you keep going in there..."
Liu Xin stopped abruptly before she could finish speaking.
Chen Mo stopped in front of an antique stall, looking down at the items on the stall.
"Guys, Old Chen seems to have spotted something, let's head over there right now!"
Liu Xin pointed the camera at the stall, where a dozen or so items were scattered about.
Lin Qingyin stopped too: "Honey, what's wrong? What's on your mind? If you like it, I'll buy it for you!"
"However, very few of the items here are genuine!"
"Just browsing!"
Chen Mo squatted down and picked up a string of copper coins from the stall.
The string of copper coins was tied with a red cord, and there were about a dozen of them. They were rusty, and the writing on some of them was no longer legible.
Liu Xin pointed the camera at the string of copper coins in Chen Mo's hand.
Why did Chen Mo ask about this string of copper coins? Are they valuable? Can any knowledgeable netizens explain?
I'm just a collector of ancient coins. This string of coins looks like ordinary Qing Dynasty coins, like Qianlong Tongbao and Jiaqing Tongbao, they're not worth much.
[The condition is so poor, it's rusted like this, Chen Mo wouldn't actually want to buy this, would he? Is he just burning money?]
The stall owner was a man in his forties with dark skin and a black Lanzhou cigarette dangling from his mouth.
Seeing someone pick up something, the shopkeeper immediately perked up, a smile spreading across his face:
"Boss, you have a good eye! This string of copper coins is a real gem, genuine antique coins passed down through generations!"
"We have pieces from the Qianlong, Jiaqing, and Daoguang periods, all large sizes, and in excellent condition!"
"Look at this patina, this rust color, it wouldn't have developed in less than a hundred or two centuries!"
"Let me tell you, I got this string of beads from the countryside. The family there has been officials for generations..."
Chen Mo interrupted his boasting: "Boss, just tell me, how much?"
The boss's eyes darted around, then he held up three fingers: "3000!"
Without saying a word, Chen Mo took out his phone, scanned the QR code, and paid three thousand yuan.
Then he put the string of copper coins into his pocket and turned to leave.
Liu Xin followed behind, and after a few steps, couldn't help but ask:
"Old Chen, you spent three thousand yuan on a string of broken copper coins? You've got money to burn, haven't you?"
"Look at that string of copper coins, they're covered in rust, the characters are illegible. They're worthless, three thousand yuan! You just have too much money!"
Lin Qingyin didn't say anything. 3000 yuan was nothing to her, not even pocket money.
However, she also felt that these copper coins were not worth the price, and that Chen Mo had overpaid.
Chen Mo smiled, took the string of copper coins out of his pocket, and tossed them in his hand: "You'll find out soon enough!"
Liu Xin rolled her eyes and said irritably, "Old Chen, you've learned to be mysterious now?"
"You don't know anything about appreciating treasures. How could you possibly conjure something out of a string of broken copper coins?"
"Don't make promises you can't keep, or you'll be proven wrong later!"
Chen Mo led the two through two alleys and stopped in front of a time-honored shop.
It is indeed Sihaitang!
Chen Mo pushed open the door and went in.
Boss Zhao was sitting behind the counter looking at the ledger when he saw Chen Mo, and his eyes lit up immediately.
He pushed the account book aside, strode forward, his face beaming with smiles, and bowed deeply.
"Mr. Chen! You've arrived! It's an honor to have you here! Xiao Yu, quickly serve Mr. Chen tea, the best tea ever!"
Zhao Xiaoyu peeked out from the back room, saw Chen Mo, a strange light flashed in her beautiful eyes, she nodded, and turned to make tea.
Mr. Zhao rubbed his hands together: "Mr. Chen, did you find something good again today?"
As he said this, his eyes gleamed, like a cat that had smelled fish.
He knew that Chen Mo was truly capable, and since Chen Mo had come, he must have found something.
Chen Mo took out the string of copper coins and placed it on the counter: "Boss Zhao, could you tell me how much this string of copper coins is worth?"
