Sweet And Refreshing: Ravished By The Chief A 100 Times - Chapter 42

Chapter 42: Agreement 4

“In our eyes, our young master is God,” A few people said in unison. Yang Yuxi could not help but roll her eyes at this kind of answer. She sighed to herself secretly that the few people must have been brainwashed. “Miss Yang, this painting is indeed the real work of Van Gogh. As a senior connoisseur, I can assure you that it is the truth,” Qiu Li said in a solemn voice. “Senior connoisseur? Are you a senior connoisseur?” Yang Yuxi was surprised. She did not expect that this lady who was adept in using a urumi would be a senior connoisseur.

“Yes, I am a senior connoisseur and I have the certificate from the industry,” the lady in a cheongsam explained. Yang Yuxi froze, looking at the short-haired woman and turning to stare at Qiu Li, directing her gaze at the other three women who were wearing cheongsams as well. Qiu Li could tell that Yang Yuxi was still full of doubts. She went on to explain, “Miss Yang, there’s no need to look around. Each of us has a special skill in order to be qualified to serve the master. Sister He Min has a doctorate degree in Business Administration and Law. I am a senior connoisseur who is skilled in swordsmanship. Sister Qing Hong is a gourmet who is skilled in all kinds of boxing styles. Sister Xiaoyu who brewed tea for you is an expert in tea…”

Yang Yuxi gaped in shock yet again. She was shocked at what she had heard. These few ladies were very capable, smart, and beautiful. They were elites who would be highly sought after by businesses and companies. However, they chose to work as servants by Ye Ming’s side. This alone would be shocking to others. If the servants who served Ye Ming were already so capable, what about Ye Ming? His abilities must be even way above them. Yang Yuxi could not help but scoff at him silently in her mind.

“Even if you are a senior connoisseur, you can’t just assume that this painting is by Van Gogh.”Yang Yuxi swallowed her saliva before saying. Although she was surprised by the talent of these ladies, right now it was imperative to distinguish for herself and to find out the true value of this painting. “I am certainly not qualified, but my young master is,” Qiu Li said proudly.

“Him?” Yang Yuxi had a puzzled look on her face. “Yes, Young Master is one of the three most famous great art connoisseurs in the world. If he said that this is Van Gogh’s work, then it must be the truth,” Qiu Li said. “Great art connoisseur? He’s a great connoisseur?” Yang Yuxi had an odd expression on her face. “Yes, he is one of the three most prestigious great art connoisseurs in the world and he is the only Chinese great art connoisseur.” Qiu Li nodded.

“I don’t care about great connoisseurs or small connoisseurs. No matter what, I don’t believe that this painting is by Van Gogh.” Yang Yuxi waved her hand. “Our young master never lies, and he disdains lying,” Qiu Li said. “Since he does not lie, then let me ask you, if this is Van Gogh’s work and it is his highest achievement, how can it only cost 64,000,000 yuan? Don’t you think there is something odd about the price?” Yang Yuxi asked.

“Miss Yang, 64,000,000 yuan is not the price of ‘Virgin Mary in Glory’, but the maintenance cost of the damages that you have done to this painting,” Qiu Li explained. “Although this painting is damaged, the damage is not serious. 64,000,000 yuan is the quotation for the repair of this painting.”

“The maintenance fee is 64,000,000 yuan? Why don’t you just steal the money?” Yang Yuxi snarled. “Miss Yang, this is the rule within the industry. When the art restorer repairs a masterpiece, depending on the degree of damage, he will charge 5%-50% of the artwork value as remuneration,” Qiu Li explained. “That doesn’t amount to 64,000,000 yuan either,” Yang Yuxi refuted. How could the maintenance costs be so expensive?
