Trading system, I exchanged vegetables for golden pills.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Mingtian frowned immediately: "Miss, you're going to be held legally responsible for what you're saying!"

"The reputation of Huaxia Gold cannot be tarnished!"

"Mr. Ye's painting is indeed made of 24K gold, weighing a full 4000 grams. Huaxia Gold guarantees this with our reputation!"

"Furthermore, the entire production process was recorded on video and notarized, eliminating any possibility of forgery!"

As he spoke, Zhang Mingtian took out a red certificate and a USB flash drive and solemnly handed them to Teacher Wang!

"This is the certificate for the painting and the entire video recording. We have filed it, and it is absolutely genuine. We will compensate you tenfold if it's fake!"

Zhang Mingtian took the certificate and USB drive, and casually flipped through them for a glance.

The official seal of Huaxia Gold is prominently displayed, and it also bears the seal of a notary office, so it is absolutely genuine.

Huaxia Gold would never fabricate such a thing.

Gold testing is quite easy, but if this gold painting is fake, once it's discovered, it's not just a matter of paying ten times the price for a fake; the brand's credibility will also be ruined.

Therefore, 4000 grams of pure gold is definitely not a problem.

Wang Jinshan secretly calculated the market price of gold, which had recently risen to almost 800.

4000 grams of gold is definitely worth more than 300 million.

If you include the costs of crafting and processing, the total is estimated to be at least 350 million.

Wang Jinshan took a deep breath and looked solemnly at Ye Chen: "Alumnus Ye, on behalf of the school, I, Wang Jinshan, thank you. This gift is valuable, and we cannot accept it so hastily. Please come with me to the alumni association office later!"

Ye Chen understood that they wanted him to take a group photo.

However, it's not appropriate for Teacher Wang to say it outright in this situation; those who know, know!

It's all standard procedure anyway, so just go and don't cause any trouble for their work.

Moreover, this matter only benefits Ye Chen.

So Ye Chen didn't refuse; he also wanted to go and broaden his horizons.

"Let's not delay, let's go now, otherwise it'll be almost ten o'clock and there will be even more people later!" Ye Chen said calmly.

Chen Shuyuan's face was pale, and her lips trembled as she said, "It's fake, it must be fake!"

"Did Ye Chen really get incredibly lucky and become rich?"

Zhang Zihao pulled Chen Shuyuan and quietly squeezed out of the crowd, leaving this place of trouble.

Damn it, Ye Chen got away with it again!

They said such awful things before, who knows what kind of ridicule they'll get if they stay here now.

While everyone's attention is on the gold painting, let's slip away quickly.

Otherwise, you'll get a slap in the face later.

Ye Chen had already noticed when Zhang Zihao and Chen Shuyuan slipped away.

With his heightened senses after taking two Cleansing and Marrow-Cleansing Pills, he had already noticed their little scheme.

Ye Chen simply couldn't be bothered to engage in verbal sparring with them in this situation.

The two of them went on and on with a string of sarcastic and cutting remarks, which was really annoying.

The reality slapped them in the face, proving that they still had some sense of shame.

Of course, Ye Chen wasn't a saint; he didn't lose his temper at all when humiliated like this.

The person is gone, but the matter is not over yet!

Zhang Zihao and Chen Shuyuan came over to step on him several times. Although they didn't succeed in stepping on him, they did manage to disgust him.

If he were still the poor kid he used to be, he would have been outdone by Zhang Zihao every time and then severely humiliated.

Those who insult others will always be insulted in return; speaking recklessly always comes at a price.

However, empty talk is not Ye Chen's style. If he's going to do something, he'll make them pay the price with a single blow!

Although Zhang Zihao had kept his voice down during his conversation with Teacher Wang, Ye Chen could hear it clearly.

He came here hoping to get in touch with that Mr. Zhou through the school.

The fact that they were willing to donate 20 yuan shows that Old Zhou is quite important to Zhang Zihao's family.

How could Ye Chen do as he wished?

Old Zhou, Zhou Xingguo? What a coincidence!

The Mr. Zhou in Longjin Residential Area is also named Zhou Xingguo, and he works for Xingcai Foods.

There can't be two Zhou Xingguos in one company, can there?

Of course, it's possible!

However, the Old Zhou that Zhang Zihao mentioned should be the Old Zhou he knows.

Ye Chen learned this information through conversations he had in his daily life.

He practiced Tai Chi and went for a run at night with these elderly people without thinking too much about it.

I simply feel that as neighbors, it's enough to just say hello to each other.

It feels like being in a village.

Ye Chen didn't care about the identities of these old men and women.

Although the people living in the old Longjin district must have high social status, Ye Chen had no intention of currying favor with them.

So I didn't deliberately ask what they did, but I could still get some information from their casual conversations.

With the keywords, it's not hard to guess the identities of these elderly people.

Given Xie Lao's extraordinary status and position, the old man who could be his sworn brother and boast with him was obviously no ordinary person either.

Therefore, Zhou Xingguo, whom Zhang Zihao was so eager to get to know, must be his old acquaintance, Old Zhou.

Wow, this feeling of wanting to trip someone up is so satisfying!

Wang Jinshan waved to the nearby volunteers.

Chen Muyan, with her sharp eyes, immediately called over three male volunteers to come to Teacher Wang's side.

Under Teacher Wang's instructions, the three male volunteers carefully received the "Golden Century Tree" painting.

The driver of the van got out at some point, holding a tripod and circling around the area, looking every bit the professional photographer.

After the handover was completed, Zhang Mingtian and two employees of Huaxia Gold led the applause.

The onlookers were inspired and joined in the applause, creating a very enthusiastic atmosphere.

"Hehe, Mr. Ye, I have delivered the goods safely. I will take my leave now. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions!" Zhang Mingtian said to Ye Chen with a smile.

After handing over the gold painting, he looked relaxed.

Ye Chen nodded to him: "Thank you for your hard work. I'll contact you again later!"

Zhang Mingtian greeted them again before driving away with his men.

Ye Chen followed Teacher Wang and his group to the alumni association office on the sixth floor of the main building.

Wang Jinshan disappeared for a few minutes and then returned with a bald, middle-aged man who looked quite dignified and clearly a long-time figure in a position of power.

Wang Jinshan introduced, "Alumnus Ye, this is Lin Zhuang, the president of the alumni association and also the vice president of Binhai University!"

Ye Chen extended his hand proactively: "Hello, President Lin, my name is Ye Chen, from the 19 Finance Department. My class advisor is Mr. Jiang Gongjing, and my counselor is Ms. Lin Huiyu!"

Ye Chen didn't call him "principal" here, but "chairman".

Since he is no longer a student, calling him "president" would sound more intimate.

Lin Zhuang nodded kindly and shook hands firmly with Ye Chen: "Hehe, good, good! Young and promising! Professor Jiang has trained a good student!"

"Professor Jiang and Teacher Lin happen to be next door today. Shall I call them over for a group photo?" Wang Jinshan asked.

Ye Chen even mentioned his teacher's name; he does have some discernment!

How can a student's shining moment happen without the participation of the homeroom teacher and counselor?
