Harvey York's Rise to Power novel Chapter 349

Harvey York looked disgusted and said, “No way…”

“You…”

“What are you trying to say? Could it be that your watch is fake? Then what am I going to do with it?”

“Don’t you know how to appraise antique watches? This watch is a Rolex Daytona prototype watch, Paul Newman! Don’t tell me that you don’t know about it!” Charles Zarate coldly snorted.

Harvey unconsciously picked up the watch and glanced at it. He was quite surprised.

This was indeed the legendary Rolex watch. It was the prototype of Daytona and it became famous because of the American actor, Paul Newman in the 1980s. This watch was once auctioned for about one hundred twenty million at the auction in Geneva!”

This was a rare and unique item, and it was one-of-a-kind, but unexpectedly, it fell into Charles’ hands.

“What? This is that legendary watch. I heard that many antique watch collectors wanted it!”

“The value of this watch is enough to buy several suites in first-tier cities!”

“President Zarate is quite generous. He even took out such a thing to compete with this live-in son-in-law.”

“However, this also shows that President Zarate is very confident! In my opinion, this live-in son-in-law is a douche!”

Harvey was speechless.

At this moment, Shane frowned and said, “Charles, you took a lot of effort to get this watch. Are you willing to give it to him?”

“I haven’t lost yet,” Charles said coldly.

Shane nodded without saying anything.

Harvey was also very interested in this kind of stuff. He smiled at this moment and said, “Then don’t regret it.”

Charles did not talk nonsense. He went straight to the painting to look at it carefully. He would surely go all out this time and try to win Harvey.

After looking closely for a moment, Charles slowly said, “As we all know, Jasper Higgins was a famous talent in the 13th century. He’s not only a painter but also a poet and calligrapher.”

“So his paintings are full of vigor and exude an ethereal atmosphere at the same time.”

“And this ‘Tiger Howl Mountains’ shows this perfectly.”

“The tiger in the painting is very vigorous and powerful which fully depicts the characteristics of the tiger.”

“The hill next to it gives people an ethereal feeling.”

“On the whole, this painting is agile and vivid. Its style is a bit too literary. It surely fits Jasper Higgins’ personality.”

“Also, the material of this scroll is also a kind of brocade peculiar to the 12th century. Hence, this painting is undoubtedly authentic.” Charles tilted his head and said.

The master who had brought ‘Tiger Howl Mountains’ just now was full of joy at this moment after hearing Charles’s judgment.

If this painting was true, the price would be at least hundreds of millions!

Meanwhile, the sound of admiration came from all around!

President Zarate was worthy of being a master!

Master! An absolute master!

He analyzed the painting so thoroughly!

No wonder he could become the president of the Niumhi Antique Dealers’ Association.

Such eyesight was so exceptional that no other young man had been able to match.

Some collectors who had a lot of antiques in their homes who had little knowledge in appraising antiques were constantly nodding their heads with admiration.

Many of them had studied antique calligraphy and painting for many years, and naturally, they had some basic skills.

However, they were nothing compared to President Zarate.

Suffice to say, Charles’ appraising skills was one-of-a-kind in Niumhi.

At this moment, Luis said proudly, “Master is a true expert. Can ordinary people directly point out the essence of this kind of calligraphy and painting?”

Charles glanced at him and frowned. “Luis, look where we are. Stop bragging!”

“Yes, Master, I was wrong!”

Those two, master and student, who were agreeing with each other looked unusually low-key, but it made them look polite and recessive.

Everyone seemed to think that Harvey had become an idiot. How dare he compete with President Zarate?

At this moment, compliments sounded from all around.

“President Zarate is indeed a master-level figure!”

“His attainments in painting and calligraphy appraisal are surely at the national level!”

“Luis is also very good. Furthermore, he has a great master. Hence, for him, becoming a master of appraisal is within reach!”

The members of the Zimmer family were all surprised upon seeing this scene.

The brainless Quinn Zimmer said directly, “President Zarate is too accomplished. Our live-in son-in-law is no match for you. He likes boasting about himself and has no ability at all!”

There was a burst of laughter from the crowd after Quinn said that.

The Zimmer family was really interesting. On this occasion, they should have stuck together no matter what contradictions were there within the family.

However, the Zimmer family actually helped the outsiders to suppress Harvey.

How much of a nuisance was this live-in son-in-law in the Zimmer family?

Rosalie Naiswell’s expression changed a few times. She wanted to say something for Harvey but did not know how to speak.

Moreover, Harvey’s wife, Mandy Zimmer was also there. Was it appropriate for her to voice out for Harvey?

Just when Rosalie was still hesitating, Luis’s eyes had fallen on Harvey again at this time, with a hint of mockery.

“Harvey, Master has already identified this ‘Tiger Howl Mountains’ as authentic. Do you have anything to add?”

“Oh, I forgot. Master had finished speaking just now. You don’t have to waste your energy and time if you are going to repeat his words. We don’t like to listen.”
