chapter 9 This is a priceless treasure

However, as the number of guests increased, Lucio Arcos no longer had the time to care about Julian Augustus. She chatted with everyone and arranged for the hotel to serve food.

Almost an hour later, Qin Fei walked in sweating profusely from outside the hotel. Because all the pocket money Lucio Arcos gave him was used to buy metal scraps, Julian Augustus could only walk to the hotel.

Moreover, he also brought the garbage bag in, fearing that it would be picked up outside the hotel. He was worried.

"Guess what that fool is carrying?"

"It should be a gift. It's my wife's birthday. It's impossible to come empty-handed, right?"

"It doesn't look like it. It's tinkling. How come it looks like scrap metal?"

"It's okay. We'll find out later when we ask him to open it and take a look."

Julian Augustus didn't care. Seeing that there was still room, he put down the bag, picked up the chopsticks and said, "I'm starving, I'll eat first."

You just know how to eat. Could it be that you were a pig in your previous life? Lucio Arcos didn't say anything on the surface, but the anger in her heart was almost uncontrollable.

I didn’t say anything because I came late, and I came with a garbage bag. People who don’t know better think that I mistreat him and can only go out to pick up garbage?

Seeing Julian Augustus lowering his head to eat, Neka Nesbit Kai cursed an idiot in his mind, and then said with a slight smile: "It's not easy for him either. He is physically disabled and has to pick up garbage. He must be tired and hungry. Of course, this must be We can’t blame Ruoxi, after all, a person’s life must have value, and his value can only be reflected in picking up trash.”

Neka Nesbit's words made Lucio Arcos frown even more, and she already regretted letting Julian Augustus come to her birthday party. But because so many colleagues were present, Lucio Arcos could only sulk and couldn't say anything.

Julian Augustus knew that Neka Nesbit was hurting him, but in his eyes, Neka Nesbit was just a frog sitting in a well and looking at the sky, and he didn't want to be in the same relationship with him. And he was really hungry, and he ate without making a sound.

When Neka Nesbit saw that Julian Augustus was silent, the smile on his face became even stronger. He secretly picked up the bag Julian Augustus put on the ground and poured it out while saying, "This should be the gift he brought. Let us Look what a precious thing it is!”

In fact, Neka Nesbit already knew what was in the bag because he met Julian Augustus at noon. What he did was just to make Julian Augustus disgraced, and then it would be best for Lucio Arcos Ruoxi to divorce Julian Augustus in anger.

Now, Zhou Kaisheng's deputy position is just around the corner. Coupled with his family background and his own abilities, he is confident that he can win Lucio Arcos.

The premise is to get this idiot away from Lucio Arcos first.

With the sound of clanging, the hall suddenly became quiet. Even the guest eating next to him couldn't stand it anymore and whispered: "What kind of world is this? Such a beautiful woman would marry a cripple who picks up garbage?"

"Hype, absolute hype. In order to be famous these days, you will do anything."

"Not necessarily, maybe that man is a rich second generation, and he did this on purpose to test whether the woman is sincere!"

For a time, the melon-eating people in the hall were talking about everything.

Lucio Arcos eyes suddenly turned red. If her colleagues hadn't looked at her, they would have put their plates on Julian Augustus head.

It's so embarrassing that you brought a bag of garbage to your birthday party. Do you want to humiliate yourself?

Julian Augustus didn't feel anything at all. Anyway, these people didn't understand the value of these scraps of metal. He slowly finished the last bite of the food and then said, "Have you finished admiring it? Give it back to me."

"Haha, it's a pile of garbage, I still want it from you?"Neka Nesbit picked up the things on the ground again, stuffed them into garbage bags, and placed them at Julian Augustus feet with a proud look on his face.

Lucio Arcos bit her lip and stared at Julian Augustus: "Are you full? Go back when you are full!"

Although Lucio Arcos had tried very hard to control the anger in her heart, anyone who was not a fool could feel the cold anger.

Julian Augustus scratched his hair and said speechlessly: "You are angry. Didn't you ask me to come over?"

"roll!"

The anger in Lucio Arcos's heart could no longer be suppressed, and the entire glass of red wine in her hand was thrown on Julian Augustus's face.

Julian Augustus was slightly startled and felt a little chilled in his heart. It turned out that Lucio Arcos was also such a superficial woman and didn't understand her goodness at all.

Forget it, this is not my wife in the first place!

Julian Augustus smiled bitterly in his heart, holding the garbage bag at his feet, ready to go back first.

However, after walking a few steps, an old man wearing a Tang suit and looking like an immortal came over and stopped him: "Little brother, can you let me see your bag?"

"No."Julian Augustus shook his head directly. This was his treasure, how could he easily show it to others.

"Here I go, this fool really treats garbage as a treasure and doesn't want to show it to others!"

"Are you an idiot to begin with? Is there anything you can't do?"

"This old man is the same. He must be an old fool, right? What's so good about garbage?"

For a while, there was a lot of discussion in the hall again. If the old man didn't look like an ordinary person, they would probably be able to say even worse things.

The old man didn't seem to hear what the people next to him said. He just stared at the garbage bag in Julian Augustus's hand and said stubbornly: "Little brother, can I just take a look?"

"Then you can't move!"Julian Augustus begged himself when he saw that the other party was not too young, so he opened the bag.

The old man looked at it for several minutes before raising his head: "Little brother, I would like to ask you, where did you get these things?"

"Picked it up."Julian Augustus said casually.

"How about selling it to me for five million?" the old man asked tentatively.

"Damn it, five million dollars buys a bag of garbage. Is the world crazy?"

"Perhaps the old man is also a lunatic. Both of them came out of a mental hospital and are fellow patients!"

"No, that old man seems to have been on TV. What is his name? I can't remember."

For a moment, the entire hall was noisy again. Even Neka Nesbit was a little stunned and couldn't believe his ears that someone would offer five million for this bag of scrap metal.

Lucio Arcos couldn't help but look at the old man, feeling vaguely familiar, but couldn't remember it for a while. Judging from his clothes and demeanor, this old man is definitely not an ordinary person.

Could it be that this idiot didn’t go home all day long, so the garbage he picked up was really a treasure.

Just when everyone was making random suspicions, Julian Augustus said something that almost made everyone faint: "Don't sell it, this is a priceless treasure!"

"Yes, I understand, I understand. It's a priceless treasure!" The old man wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked at Julian Augustus with pleading eyes: "This way, little brother, I won't buy anything. When the time comes, can I use it once? Five million, and I can grant you a request."

After the old man said these words, everyone in the hall felt like they were about to collapse, and their world view was refreshed again and again. Even if I offer five million, they still won’t sell it.

What on earth is this pile of scrap metal that is so valuable?

Julian Augustus saw that the old man didn't look like an ordinary person, and he might actually have some use for him, so he said, "Okay, I'll give it to you once."

"Okay, thank you, thank you!" The old man nodded toward the door. A man in a black tunic suit came in and respectfully handed a check to the old man.

The old man took out a hexagonal, slightly sparkling blue pen on his chest, scrawled a line of numbers, and then handed it to Julian Augustus along with his business card: "Little brother, give me a call when the time comes, old man I will definitely come and visit you in person.”

"Okay."Julian Augustus nodded and put the gilt business card into his pocket.

"Okay, then I won't disturb you anymore." The old man inserted the pen, and with the support of the man, he got into the Rolls-Royce outside the hotel.

This time, the guests in the hotel became quiet. Looking at Julian Augustus, there was a complicated expression on his face. There were also knowledgeable people here, and they couldn't help but whisper: "The pen used by this old man, like the one at the auction last year, seemed to cost three million. The Rolls-Royce is also a limited edition. It seems that this kid's hand The things inside are really valuable.”

"No matter how valuable a pile of scrap metal is, how can it be as valuable as diamonds?"

"That's right, maybe it's just hype and raising prices!"

Julian Augustus didn't react much at all. He could tell at a glance that the old man had a hidden illness. He probably wanted to borrow his furnace to refine medicine, otherwise he wouldn't have given himself five million in vain.

However, most people don’t understand the value of this furnace. It seems that the old man still has two brushes.

Julian Augustus muttered something in his heart, turned around and walked towards Lucio Arcos's table, then picked up a glass of red wine.

Lucio Arcos glanced at Julian Augustus, and her heart tightened slightly. Was he planning to splash it back?
