Ye Feng’s gaze darkened. He wanted to argue with him.
Xia Qiu was afraid that he would cause trouble again, so she hurriedly pulled him back and shook her head.
The man didn’t continue to pester him. Instead, he turned around and said to an old man beside him, “Wait for me here. I’ll go in and get some money. I’ll be right out. You’re not allowed to leave.”
The old man hurriedly nodded. “Alright, I won’t leave.”
That man turned around and glared at Ye Feng and the other man, before walking into the bank opposite and withdrawing money from the ATM.
Ye Feng turned back to look at that old man. He was holding a black cloth bag in his hands. He did not know what was inside, but he was hugging it tightly as if he was hugging his life.
His heart skipped a beat, and he immediately activated the deep scan.
[Ming Yongle’s gold- gilded sitting statue of Sakyamuni has been identified as authentic… The system estimates it at 120 million.]
When Ye Feng saw this message, he was shocked.
When he told Xia Qiu that “j.a.pan is full of gold”, he was just joking.
He did not expect to encounter such a treasure on the street. A casual sentence actually came true.
Judging from the panic of the young man just now, he probably saw the value of this Buddha statue and rushed in to get the money.
He immediately walked forward without batting an eyelid. “Old man, can I see the treasure in your arms?”
When the old man heard this, his face immediately turned pale. “You… How did you know…”
“Not only do 1 know that you have a treasure in your arms, but 1 also know that it’s a Buddha statue, right?” Ye Feng stared at him with a sharp gaze.
The old man was even more shocked. Other than the young man who had seen the thing in his cloth bag, no one else had seen it. How did this person know?
Ye Fengs gaze became sharper. “Because I have opened my heavenly eye, I can see things that others cannot. As a Buddhist believer, you actually took out the Buddha statue of Buddha to sell for money. This is a great disrespect to Buddha.”
That old man was so scared that his legs went weak, and he almost fell down, but luckily, Ye Feng helped him up, so he managed to regain his balance.
“l had no choice. My son was. .h.i.t by a car and urgently needs a sum of money for the operation. This Buddha statue is the only thing worth some money at home.” The old man had a long face as he recounted the whole story.
“Where did you get this Buddha statue?” Ye Feng continued to ask.
“My ancestor was a businessman. He used to be a rich family, but when it came to my father’s generation, the family’s fortune declined. All the things from before were sold out, and only this Buddha statue was left.” The old man’s face was filled with misery, and Xia Qiu, who was beside him, could not bear to see him.
“Ye Feng, let’s help him.”
Ye Feng glanced at the bank again. “What price did that person offer you?”
The old man hesitated for a moment, but when he was glared at, he quickly answered honestly, “500,000 j.a.panese dollars.”
That was equivalent to more than 26,000 RMB. Compared to the true value of this Buddha statue, it was a world of difference.
No wonder that young man was so anxious. It turned out that he wanted to pick up a big leak.
“How much does it cost to treat your son’s leg?” Ye Feng was not anxious. He continued to ask.
“The doctor said it would cost at least 1 million j.a.panese dollars,” the old man answered again.
“Then why didn’t you ask him for 1 million?” Ye Feng asked curiously.
“He said that my Buddha statue is made of copper. He can give me 500,000 yuan because he wants to help me.” When the old man spoke, his face was filled with grat.i.tude.
Ye Feng cursed in his heart. That person was even more black-hearted than him. He even went against his conscience and gave a discount on the money that was used to save his son’s life.
“I’ll take this Buddha statue of yours for 1 million,” he said to the old man.
When the old man heard his bid, he was stunned. “1 million? You… are you kidding me?”
Ye Feng revealed a harmless smile. “As long as you agree, I can transfer the money to you now.”
The old man immediately shook his head. “l only want cash.”
Ye Feng turned back to look at the bank. He seemed to see that the young man had already withdrawn the money and was about to come out.
“Alright, I’ll take you to get the money. Follow me.”
With that, he led the old man in the opposite direction.
Kamiya Kazuya hurriedly walked out of the bank with the cash in his hand, his heart already extremely excited.
He was strolling on the street today when he was b.u.mped into by an old man carrying a black cloth bag. He was about to fly into a rage.
However, he suddenly saw a flash of gold in the black cloth bag in the old man’s arms.
He immediately apologized to the old man with a pleasant expression and tried to get the information out of him.
He knew that the old man urgently needed a sum of money to save his son and wanted to sell the only valuable Buddha statue in the family.
When he saw the Buddha statue, his heart almost jumped out of his chest.
It was actually a priceless gilded Buddha statue. Although he could not determine its exact value, he knew that it was definitely priceless.
Then, under his coaxing and deception, the old man actually agreed to sell it to him for 500,000 j.a.panese dollars.
This made him extremely excited. He hurriedly brought the old man to the bank and prepared to withdraw cash to trade with him.
However, when he walked out of the bank, he found that the old man had disappeared. This frightened him and he hurriedly looked around. “Where is he? Where did he go?” He was about to go crazy as he hurriedly pulled the pa.s.sersby and asked.
Soon, he found out that someone had seen the old man being taken away by a young man and woman.
He suddenly thought of the beautiful girl he had b.u.mped into just now.
It must be them, it must be them!
‘B*stards, don’t let me find you, or I won’t forgive you!’
After Ye Feng activated the deep scan, he quickly found the nearest bank.
The bank had already closed, but there was an ATM next door. In order to avoid making the same mistake as the young man, he directly brought the old man in.
Then, he took out 1 million j.a.panese dollars from the ATM right in front of him.
After thinking about it, he withdrew another 200,000 yuan.
Then, he turned around and handed it to the old man. “Your son will probably
need some time to recover after his surgery. You can use the remaining 200,000 to buy some nutritional supplements.”
When the old man heard this, he was instantly moved and wanted to kneel down to thank him.
Ye Feng quickly supported him. “Alright, take the money and go to the hospital, I hope your son recovers soon.”
The old man then took out the gilded Buddha statue and handed it to him. Then, he put the money into a black cloth bag and thanked him profusely before turning around to leave.
Xia Qiu stared at the Buddha statue in his hand and asked curiously, “Why did you buy this Buddha statue?”
Ye Feng stared at the Buddha statue and admired it repeatedly, as if he was admiring a peerless beauty. “This is not an ordinary Buddha statue, this is a Buddha statue worth 120 million..
