Chapter 177 You are dead
"Master, please wait a moment. I'll go get something." Lin Fan said, and walked out quickly, fearing that Chen Luobai would follow him.
He quickly came to the car, carefully took out the emerald watermelon from the car, put it in an exquisite box, and then hurried back carrying the box.
The moment Chen Luobai saw the jade watermelon, a flicker of astonishment crossed his eyes. This imitation was crafted with such exquisite craftsmanship! However, as he examined it more closely, his shock intensified. This color, this luster, and this carving technique… it was definitely not something a mere master could replicate!
"Could this... be the real thing?" Chen Luobai felt an indescribable excitement in his heart, and his heart beat violently.
"Boy, where did you get this emerald watermelon?" he asked anxiously.
"This was given to me by my other master. He told me it's real." Lin Fan explained with a smile.
"You have another master?" Chen Luobai asked in surprise.
"Yes, he raised me since I was a child." Lin Fan nodded.
"So, Master, during the apprenticeship ceremony, I cannot kneel down and kowtow to you. This is because I once swore that I would only kneel down and kowtow to you in this life."
"I understand your feelings, it doesn't matter." Chen Luobai agreed and admired Lin Fan's kindness and righteousness.
"I don't care about these empty formalities. Just calling me 'Master' is enough."
"Okay, Master."
"Also, if this jade watermelon is genuine, you must keep it carefully and never display it casually." Chen Luobai stared at the jade watermelon and warned seriously, "so as not to cause unnecessary trouble."
"Haha, then I'll leave it with you first. Return it to me when you've had enough of it." Lin Fan said with a smile.
"Do you know the value of this emerald watermelon?" Chen Luobai stared at Lin Fan and asked.
"I'm not sure, but it should be far more than tens of billions. Since you trust me so much and take me to visit your treasure, how can I not trust you?" Lin Fan answered frankly.
"Hahaha! Okay! Then I'll keep it and observe it carefully for a few days. I'll return it to you after the apprenticeship banquet at the latest." Chen Luobai looked at Lin Fan deeply and laughed. "If it's really an authentic piece, then the carving technique must be extraordinary. It will be a great inspiration to me."
While the two were chatting, their second senior brother, Pei Hanjie, hurried in, his expression somewhat serious: "Master, they are here again."
"Can't you see I'm chatting with your junior brother? Go and chase them away!" Chen Luobai's face suddenly darkened.
"Ah, junior brother, you're here! I just came back and didn't have time to say hello to you." Pei Hanjie greeted Lin Fan first, then turned around and prepared to drive away the uninvited guests.
However, at this moment, a mocking voice came from outside: "Oh, Master Chen, you really won't cry until you see the coffin. Stop pretending, don't you just want more money? Just tell me, how much do you want, I will give it to you!"
Hearing this, Chen Luobai's face turned even uglier. Add money? This is simply an insult to his art!
A young man walked in with an arrogant look on his face, followed by two burly bodyguards wearing sunglasses, giving people a strong sense of oppression.
"You are not welcome here, please leave!" Second Senior Brother Pei Hanjie shouted angrily.
"We're open for business, so why would we chase customers away?" The young man said with a playful smile, "I'm here to give you some money, but I'm your financial sponsor."
Hearing the word "financial sponsor", Chen Luobai's face darkened even further. He didn't understand these internet terms and thought this guy was taking advantage of him!
"Get out! We don't do business with you here!" He could no longer suppress the anger in his heart.
"Please leave!" Pei Hanjie also stepped forward, ready to drive these people away. However, the two burly bodyguards blocked their way, and a strong sense of oppression came over them.
Pei Hanjie paused, his heart tightening. Are these people planning to take action?
"Master Chen, I come to see you because I'm giving you face." The young man said disdainfully.
"Whether you like it or not, you have to carve for me today! Just give me a price. Money is not a problem for me." He added arrogantly.
"Money is not a problem?" Chen Luobai was enraged by this. He sneered in response, "Okay, as long as you give me 100 million, I will start carving immediately!"
"One hundred million? Are you crazy?" The young man's face suddenly changed. The jadeite in his hand were not worth this price.
"Didn't you say money is not a problem? If you can't come up with 100 million, take your people and get out!" Chen Luobai glared.
"You old bastard, you are so shameless even though I gave you face?" The young man also got angry.
"If I hadn't heard someone introduce me to this shabby place, I wouldn't have come to this place!"
"From someone's introduction? Who introduced you?" Chen Luobai frowned.
"Why do you care so much? I'm asking you one last time, are you going to carve it or not? Five million isn't enough, but eight million should be enough, right?"
"Get lost!" Chen Luobai was too lazy to waste words.
"Old man, I think you are tired of living!" The young man was completely enraged.
At this moment, Lin Fan, who had been watching, slowly stood up and said, "Apologize to my master and get out."
"Who do you think you are to talk to me like that!" The young man became even angrier.
"Don't cause trouble, kid."
"I just want to cause some trouble today." Lin Fan's eyes were cold as he approached the young man.
"Beat him!" The young man pointed at Lin Fan and roared.
The two strong men responded and rushed towards Lin Fan.
"Stop! What do you want to do?" Chen Luobai stood up suddenly.
"Master, don't worry, I'll take care of it." Lin Fan said, and punched the strong man's fist.
With a snap, the strong man's bones broke and he was knocked flying.
Everyone was stunned. How could this be possible? That burly man far outweighed Lin Fan in both size and weight, yet he was sent flying by a single punch?
The other strong man roared and kicked Lin Fan. Lin Fan responded in kind, but the strong man's shin bone broke and he fell to the ground screaming.
"Now it's your turn." Lin Fan looked at the young man coldly.
The young man retreated in panic: "What do you want to do? I am the eldest son of the Wang family in Wucheng. If you touch me, you will not end well!"
"Wucheng Wang Family?" Lin Fan was stunned. Isn't this Wang Chudong's home? What's the relationship between this guy and Wang Chudong?
Before the young man could continue to be arrogant, Lin Fan kicked him to the ground.
"What's your name?" Lin Fan asked coldly.
"Let me go! My name is Wang Yongchuan, a direct descendant of the Wang family. You are dead!" The young man struggled.
Lin Fan took out his phone and called Wang Chudong: "Who is Wang Yongchuan to you?"
"He is my cousin, what's wrong?" Wang Chudong asked puzzledly.
