"Hahaha..." Handsome Fatty Wang smiled smugly, saying, "I've been battling wits with this kid for so long, I've already got him figured out. The way he moves his butt, I know exactly what he's planning. As soon as he arrived in Tianfu City, I immediately knew what he was up to. However, we can't face him head on, we need to know the exact time he's going to Master Craft. Only then can we steal the Dragon Blood Wood when he's not paying attention!"

"Is it appropriate to just steal directly?" The man beside him asked worriedly, "This guy named Ye is quite a fighter."

"Who said anything about fighting him!" Handsome Fatty Wang replied, "Since he's looking for Master Craft to make a counterfeit, he definitely has to hand the Genuine Article over to Master Craft. When Master Craft makes counterfeits, nobody is allowed to be around. We can't snatch it from Ye Qing's hands. But once it's in Master Craft's hands, taking the Dragon Blood Wood will be much easier, don't you think?"

Rabbit and the man suddenly realized, Rabbit gave a thumbs up, saying, "Fatty, your plan is really brilliant. It seems like it's not a dream this time to take the Dragon Blood Wood."

"Hehehe..." Handsome Fatty Wang chuckled, saying, "And do you know what the most crucial part is?"

"What's the most crucial part?" The two of them asked simultaneously with curiosity.

Handsome Fatty Wang laughed, saying, "The most crucial part is, we can not only steal the Genuine Article, but also leave a counterfeit there for Ye Qing. That way, Ye Qing will believe he's got the Genuine Article and will definitely hide it. Plus, there's absolutely no one who knows we took the real Dragon Blood Wood, so no one will come after us. This way, we can easily sell the Dragon Blood Wood and make a fortune to enjoy life!"

The two were even more thrilled, and they were extremely satisfied with Handsome Fatty Wang's plan. In their eyes, this time, the Dragon Blood Wood was practically within their grasp. After all, Master Craft was only skilled in making counterfeits, and didn't possess any other great abilities. With Handsome Fatty Wang and his two accomplices' skills, stealing something from him would be a piece of cake.

Handsome Fatty Wang laughed smugly and waved his hand, saying, "Let's not get too excited yet, let's listen to the bugging device first to hear when this kid will go to Master Craft. It's coming, the call is coming, he might be saying it now!"

Rabbit and the man immediately came to their senses, quickly walked over to Handsome Fatty Wang, pressing their ears to the earpiece to try to hear the voice inside.

Ye Qing called Li Lianshan, telling him things were going smoothly finding Master Craft, reassuring Li Lianshan not to worry. Of course, he also mentioned the time tomorrow to go to Master Craft, telling Li Lianshan not to worry about his side, and mainly keep an eye out for those peculiar monks.

Handsome Fatty Wang listened to the call attentively and learned the most crucial piece of information: the time Ye Qing would go to Master Craft. With this information, he immediately set off with Rabbit and the man to find Master Craft and begin their preparations.

The three of them were very familiar with Master Craft, after all, they often came here to sell merchandise and frequently interacted with Master Craft. So they knew exactly where Master Craft lived and where he made counterfeits. Their plan was targeted at Master Craft, intending to take the Dragon Blood Wood from his hands.

Early the next morning, Little Zhang actually brought breakfast to Ye Qing's room, being extremely considerate. After all, Ye Qing held the key to his hundreds of thousands in income, and he couldn't sleep a wink last night, so he got up early to prepare things for Ye Qing.

Ye Qing happened to be up as well, washed his face and brushed his teeth, casually ate something, and then went with Little Zhang to find Boss Zhou.

Boss Zhou had also arrived at the store early, eagerly waiting for Ye Qing. After all, the Dragon Blood Wood Ye Qing brought was truly a priceless treasure. If he could present this treasure to Master Craft, Master Craft would certainly reward him handsomely.

Upon seeing Ye Qing and Little Zhang arrive, Boss Zhou immediately greeted them. After some small talk, Boss Zhou drove them straight to Master Craft's place.

Master Craft lived on the outskirts of Tianfu City, where he had a large estate. His place for making counterfeits was also there, which could be said to be his headquarters. However, not many people knew about this place, except those who had business dealings with him; no one else knew the infamous Master Craft lived there.

Boss Zhou had contacted Master Craft last night, so they encountered no obstacles as they entered. The vehicle parked in the courtyard, and a middle-aged man approached and led the three of them into the manor's loft.

The manor wasn't crowded, but Ye Qing could tell the security was very strict. In the distance, atop trees and buildings, people were concealed, guarding and observing the situation within the manor.

The middle-aged man led them to the loft's entrance, saying, "The big boss is inside, has been waiting for you all for a while, please enter!"

"Okay." Boss Zhou smiled at the man and led Ye Qing and Little Zhang into the hall.

There were only two people in the hall, an elderly man with grey hair who looked about sixty sitting on the sofa, and a young man standing beside him. The young man had sharp eyes, and he seemed to be quite skilled.

"Big Boss!" Seeing the elder, Boss Zhou immediately went up to him, his demeanor obsequious.

Although Little Zhang didn't act as obsequiously as Boss Zhou, he also had a fawning smile on his face, showing great respect toward the Big Boss.

"Hmm!" The elderly man nodded slowly, looking at Ye Qing behind Boss Zhou, and said, "Is this the young man who brought a treasure worth hundreds of thousands to our place?"

"That's right, it's this brother!" Boss Zhou stepped aside with a smile at Ye Qing, "Brother, this is our Big Boss. The antique business in Tianfu City is all managed by the Big Boss. The Big Boss is very wealthy, so your item, although valuable, doesn't mean much to him. You can take it out now and let the Big Boss have a look. If the Big Boss is interested, then we can discuss the price!"

"Is that so?" Ye Qing smiled lightly, glanced at the elder, and suddenly said, "If the Big Boss takes a liking to it, then everything is straightforward. But, if you're not the one in charge, wouldn't it all be for nothing?"

"Hmm?" The elder's expression changed slightly, with a hint of astonishment in his tone.

Boss Zhou was even more shocked, and curiously said, "Brother, what are you saying?"

"Hehe…" Ye Qing chuckled and said, "I just think that the Big Boss should be sitting on the sofa, not standing next to us, leading us in and out. Isn't that right, Big Boss!"

When Ye Qing spoke the last sentence, his eyes were fixed directly on the middle-aged man standing beside him, the one who had led them in. This sentence was clearly directed at him.

"Ah?" Boss Zhou was obviously very surprised. After pausing for a moment, he said, "Brother, you're making me more and more confused…"

"Old Zhou, no need to say more!" At this moment, the middle-aged man directly waved his hand, stopping Boss Zhou. His eyes glowed, and he examined Ye Qing up and down before laughing, "Indeed, a hero comes from youth, as the saying goes. But I'm still curious, how did this brother tell at a glance that I am the real Big Boss?"

The middle-aged man spoke as he leisurely walked to the sofa. The elder immediately stood up, giving the seat to the middle-aged man. The elder, along with the young man, then stood on either side of the middle-aged man.

Boss Zhou opened his mouth, but ultimately closed it again. Since the middle-aged man admitted it himself, there was nothing more he could say. However, he looked at Ye Qing with even more surprise, trying to understand how Ye Qing could tell the difference.

The middle-aged man looked at Ye Qing and smiled, "Brother, can you tell me exactly how you identified that I am the real Big Boss?"

"Hehe…" Ye Qing chuckled and said, "It's not difficult. Master Craft is so good at making counterfeits that there must have been a lot of practice in earlier years. I've seen those who make antique counterfeits; most have calluses that are impossible to remove. But this old gentleman you found has rough fingers but not a single callus, clearly showing he hasn't been trained before. This indicates he's not the Master Craft!"

Hearing this, the middle-aged man's eyes shone even more brightly, and he asked, "Though he's not, there are still two other people in this room. Why did you specifically suspect me? And aren't you afraid of guessing wrong, what if I'm not in this room at all but sent someone to impersonate me?"

"I've brought a piece of Dragon Blood Wood over. If Master Craft didn't want to see this Dragon Blood Wood, then I wouldn't have anything to say. I suspect Master Craft definitely wants to see for himself whether this Dragon Blood Wood is genuine. So he must be in this hall. And that young man, although he has calluses, Master Craft can't possibly be so young." Ye Qing chuckled, looking at the Master Craft, "With so many conditions stacking up, isn't it obvious who the Master Craft is?"

"I see!" Master Craft sighed and said, "I didn't expect your observation skills to be so sharp. It looks like I underestimated you. Had I known this, I should have arranged for two different people to be here just now."

"No matter who you arrange, it wouldn't work!" Ye Qing said, "The people you arranged are all your subordinates and have much respect for you. When you came in just now, that old gentleman kept glancing at you as he spoke, as if seeking your approval, which revealed a lot."

(After two busy days, the wedding is finally over. I've been busy with wedding matters the day before yesterday and yesterday, so I couldn't update. I apologize to all friends for that, truly sorry. Also, I'd like to thank all the brothers and friends who have supported me all along and thank those who congratulated Commander He during the wedding period with votes and rewards. Thank you for your blessings!)
