Harvey York's Rise to Power novel Chapter 347

Everyone unconsciously looked over. It was Luis Zarate who spoke.

At this moment, his face was full of contempt, and the meaning was very obvious.

Shane Naiswell must have told Harvey York regarding the Wentz Bottle.

Many people had a thoughtful expression on their faces when those words were said.

Charles Zarate was the president of the Niumhi Antique Dealers’ Association. He did not manage to identify the Wentz Bottle, but Harvey did it?

There was something weird about this.

However, Luis was implying that Shane had helped Harvey to cheat at this moment. Everyone dared not to agree with him.

They were not afraid of offending Harvey, they were just afraid of offending the Naiswells.

Shane said calmly, “Luis, are you saying that I’m covering it up for Harvey?”

Luis said respectfully, “Master Naiswell, I dared not say that.”

“I can’t help but feel a little confused. How did he identify the porcelain vase? Even Master got it wrong.”

Shane had a half-smile on his face. He then said, “Then what do you think?”

“Let them have a match again, but this time it couldn’t be an item from the Naiswells?”

He looked at Harvey coldly after speaking. He did not believe that Harvey could beat his teacher without Shane’s help.

“Okay.”

Shane did not refuse. Although Luis’ behavior was very impolite, he was the one who said that everyone could speak freely.

If Shane was so narrow-minded and petty, he would not be where he was today.

Soon, someone came up with an old wooden box following Shane’s order.

The person who was holding the wooden box was the master of a first-class family in Niumhi.

This master then smiled and said, “Master Naiswell. President Zarate and Harvey, since you both are going to compete today, I happen to have a painting with me that I got by chance in the early years. I don’t know whether it’s authentic or not. Let’s appraise it today.”

As soon as he finished his words, he waved his hand and an antique painting appeared in front of everyone.

In this painting, a magnificent tiger was stepping on a huge boulder and roaring toward the sky. There was also a hill on the side that looked extremely vigorous.

“Tiger Howl Mountains”!

The two words, Jasper Higgins was inscribed below this painting!

There were more than a dozen seals!

Jasper Higgins’ painting?!

Everyone around was very excited when they saw this name.

Even Shane said in admiration, “Jasper Higgins’ ‘Tiger Howl Mountains’? It’s a great painting! If this painting is genuine, its value would be on a par with the Wentz Bottle!”

Antiques were divided into five main categories.

Painting and calligraphy.

Porcelain.

Woodenware.

Funerary wares.

Jade ware.

It was universally acknowledged that painting and calligraphy had the highest cultural relic value among the five main categories.

This was because painting and calligraphy were the most difficult to preserve among all the antiques. Rare things were usually the most expensive ones. If this ‘Tiger Howl Mountains’ was true, then the Wentz Bottle just now would be outclassed.

The masters of some first-class families in Niumhi were a little excited at this moment.

This ‘Tiger Howl Mountains’ did appear in Niumhi in the early years, but then, it was never heard of again later. However, this painting appeared unexpectedly again today.

Nonetheless, the authenticity of this painting was still unknown at this moment. Although everyone was excited, they could still act rationally.

Shane looked at the ‘Tiger Howl Mountains’ for a while, and glanced at Charles and Harvey. He then said, “Charles, Harvey, how about using this ‘Tiger Howl Mountains’ to have a rematch?”

Charles’ face was back to normal. He then looked calm after listening to that and said, “Whatever, as long as Harvey approves, I don’t care.”

Harvey was speechless for a while.

Those two, master and student were so similar as if they were printed out from the same mold. They were both equally shameless.

Charles obviously wanted to use this ‘Tiger Howls Mountains’ to even the score this time. However, he still acted like it was no big deal.

Was this old guy not afraid that he would pretend until he was nuts?

Apparently, ignorance was bliss. However, the fools were not.

Charles was a fool in Harvey’s eyes at this moment. So, why should he give him a chance to show off?
