He Wenjie was already somewhat regretting not bringing someone along to the auction. Had he known this piece of Ru ware would attract so much attention, nothing would have made him raise the paddle in person.

That day, He Wenjie brought the White Jade Lotus Vase he had won with a bid of one hundred million Hong Kong dollars to Elder Guan's place for everyone to admire. Ragpicker Hou inspected the treasure and said, "You brat, your cover's blown. Didn't you say before that you only had eighty million? Where'd those other twenty million come from?"
"I used the patent for Tang's Nut as collateral to borrow fifty million from Citibank. I didn't touch a cent of Chunming's ten million."
