448 Stay Over; Reaction! (1)
The driver of the Rolls-Royce limousine obviously had superb driving skills, and the Rolls-Royce had top-notch shock absorption.
Lin Fan and Zhang Ting sat in the car. They did not feel any bumps, acceleration, or braking.
Even the cup of tea in front of them did not show any signs of shaking.
If Zhang Ting had not pulled open the curtains out of curiosity and seen the high-rise buildings that were constantly retreating outside, she would have thought that the car had been stationary.
About half an hour later, the driver opened the door respectfully.
Only then did Zhang Ting know that they had already arrived at their destination.
In front of them was a building with a sense of age.
Red bricks, green tiles, carved railings, and jade tiles.
There was also a pair of mighty and majestic stone lions at the door.
Above them, there were two big words—Wood Mansion!
Seeing this…
“Didn’t you say that you’d take us to the house of that ancestor?” Zhang Ting was stunned. “Why are we here?”
At this moment, a Maybach, a Rolls-Royce, and two Bentleys stopped by the side.
The people from the four families who had been following behind like followers all got out of the car.
“Mr. Lin, this Wood Mansion was the house of the founder. It has always been the same as it was in the past,” said the patriarch of the Wang family respectfully.
When Zhang Ting heard this, her mouth opened wide.
In fact, when she saw all the cars parked here, she had already expected it.
However, after hearing this answer, Zhang Ting could not help but be shocked.
Even without measuring, Wood Mansion was more than 1,000 square meters!
One had to know… This was Modu where every inch of land was worth its weight in gold!
Ignoring the unique value of the old buildings, the price alone was already very scary.
Lin Fan did not care about it and nodded. “Alright, let’s go in and take a look.”
“Alright,” the patriarch of the Wang family said.
Even though he was old, he still took the lead and walked at the front like a soldier.
The patriarch came to the vermilion door, took out the key, and gently twisted the bronze lock.
The door was unlocked.
Instantly, a refreshing fragrance assaulted his senses.
He looked inside…
He could see the spotless ground and a field of blooming flowers.
“We have people come in every day to clean and maintain the place,” explained the old patriarch of the Wang family.
Lin Fan nodded his head to show that he understood.
They walked through the spacious courtyard and arrived at an ancient wooden building.
Generally speaking, a house that had not been lived in for a long time would have a strange smell.
However, after everyone walked in, there was a faint fragrance that refreshed their hearts.
They looked up.
They saw…
On the wall were ancient poems written in a flamboyant manner and beautiful and ancient paintings.
“Song of the Peach Blossom Nunnery, Watching the Waterfall on Mount Lu… Tang Bohu…”
Zhang Ting muttered softly, “These… Could they be the authentic work of Tang Bohu?”
If it were in the past, Zhang Ting would only think that they were imitations, just like the ones in the imperial private room of Bright Moon Restaurant.
However, after booking an entire floor of Bright Moon Restaurant and riding in a Rolls-Royce limousine, she was uncertain.
“These are indeed Tang Bohu’s authentic works.”
Zhang Ting could not help but gasp.
Tang Bohu was the leader of the four great talents of the Ming Dynasty.
The poem, Song of the Peach Blossom Nunnery, and the painting, Watching the Waterfall on Mount Lu, could be said to be his most famous works.
How much would these two authentic works be worth?
It was simply unbelievable!
Accompanied by the people from the four great families, Lin Fan toured the entire Wood Mansion.
He sniffed the fragrance in the air and looked at the antique furniture. For a moment, his interest was piqued.
Seeing that the sky was gradually turning dark, Lin Fan said, “I’ll stay here today.”
Everyone from the four families was slightly stunned.
Stay here?
If someone else had said such words, their mouth would have been smashed in the next second.
However, the person who said that was Lin Fan.
The direct descendant of the Qing Hong Sect’s founder!
Lin Fan was puzzled. “What? Can’t I?”
“Of course, you can,” said the patriarch of the Wang family hurriedly. “I’ll get someone to send over the mattress, quilt cover, water, and all kinds of daily necessities later.”
The Wood Mansion belonged to the founder of the Qing Hong Sect.
Lin Fan was the direct descendant of the ancestral master, the current sect master!
If there was anyone in this world who had the right to live here, it would be Lin Fan alone.
Lin Fan nodded in satisfaction and turned to Zhang Ting. “Cousin, do you want to stay with me today?”
In fact…
Zhang Ting was also very fascinated by the Wood Mansion.
Walking here made her feel as if she had turned into an ancient princess.
Staying here for a night was definitely not bad!
“Alright.” Zhang Ting nodded.
Everyone strolled around for a while more. Zhang Ting stroked a pillar and asked, “What kind of wood is this house made of? It’s golden yellow, and there are no signs of worms or decay.”
“This house is entirely made of golden thread nanmu,” said the patriarch of the Wang family.
Zhang Ting, who was originally stroking the pillar, could not help but freeze on the spot.
The entire building was made of golden thread nanmu?
Although Zhang Ting had never studied wood in detail, she had seen a piece of news before. An inch of nanmu wood was an inch of gold!
The price of golden thread nanmu was equivalent to gold!
