The ultimate husband

Read The Ultimate Husband [by Skykissing wolf] Chapter 18 – “Trash?”

Yvonne found that description amusing. If she was correct, that box was probably used by the palace during the Qing Dynasty’s Qianlong period. The box’s material was very valuable and highly likely to be Golden-thread Nanmu.

While it was evident that the box was weather-beaten and looked particularly wrecked, its workmanship was exceedingly exquisite upon closer inspection!

The box alone was worth hundreds of thousands, yet it was treated as rubbish?!

Perhaps driven by occupational habit, Yvonne opened her bag and took out a pastel green magnifying glass.

The Young family has been in the antique business for generations and often picked up valuable items on the roadside. It was imperative that a magnifying glass be carried along at all times.

“President Young, what are you doing?”

The old lady could not resist saying, “This is just some rubbish. The servants will come right away and toss this into the bin.”

Yvonne kept quiet. As she analyzed the wooden box through her magnifying glass, drops of sweat formed on her forehead!

There was a golden dragon engraved on the box!

Despite going through years of battering, it was only under a magnifying glass that one could barely make out the undeniable fact that the box had been used by the emperor!

Back in the feudal era, there were only a few people who dared to create dragon carvings! It was a time when imperial power reigned supreme authority, and only the emperor’s engravers could create the box.

Her earlier estimation of several hundred thousand had been a severe underestimation. It was worth at least one million!

“President Young? Come and have a seat.” William walked over and bowed respectfully to Yvonne. “President Young, the banquet is about to begin.”

Yvonne put away her magnifying glass and whispered, “This box…? Whose gift was it?”

“No one!” William hurriedly waved his hand, “Don’t get me wrong, President Young, all of our guests today are illustrious people. They wouldn’t give presents bought from a roadside stall. Haha!”

After all, the Lyndon family were equally prestigious and would never admit to accepting such a gift.

As William spoke, he brought the box over and was about to toss it into the bin.

The old lady glanced at William appreciatively. He was such a good grandson and she did not pamper him in vain!
