Becoming the Richest Man Alive

“This old man is quite forward-thinking,” he mumbled to himself as he shoved food into his mouth.

It wasn’t his place to say anything at that moment. Although it was a little awkward, it wasn’t a big deal for someone as shameless as him.

“I’m sorry that you have to see this. My children are all good-for-nothings. I’ll show you my collection once we’re done eating and we’ll talk about the Dragon and Tiger Gang too.”

“Alright. It must be my lucky day today for I’m able to see your collection,” Casper replied with a nod.

Tony’s children left after the meal and as the servants came to collect the dirty dishes, he sighed. “Do you think I was wrong to form a temporary alliance with other families in exchange for my sons’ happiness? It used to be such a normal thing in the past but it seems like it’s an absurd thing to do now.”

“I think it’s fine. Your daughters-in-law are quite beautiful too,” Casper said as he scratched his head.

The older man’s expression was odd and he didn’t know what to say. I asked about my family’s problem but you’re telling me that my daughters-in-law are beautiful?

“Let’s just go take a look at my collection.” He began to lead the way to the second floor.

As they went up the stairs, Tony pointed at the paintings hung on the wall and said, “Our family had collected countless antiques in the many years we have been developing and growing. Out of the many foreign antiques we have, these paintings are the only ones my son had bought in an auction. He told me that the works of the top foreign masters are as valuable as our country’s national treasures. So I told him, ‘Why are you stating the obvious? Which country wouldn’t have their own national treasures when history existed? These are the essence of a country’s culture.’“

Casper stared at one of the paintings for a moment. He realized that it was authentic and it would cost at least ten million.
