The Real Heiress Has an Appraisal System

"I’m sure everyone has heard the legend of Ou Yezi, the master swordsmith. The Sword of King Goujian of Yue is undoubtedly the most famous among his works. Its handle, inlaid with agate and turquoise, is exceptionally precious—a true masterpiece. But not all legendary swords are so ornate. Everyone knows Zhao Zilong was a famous general, but he started out as just an ordinary young man before he made his name and fortune."

"This sword isn’t flashy, but it’s incredibly sharp. A good feel in the hand is far more important than fancy decoration!"

"’A fine sword is born from the grindstone.’ In today’s market, this sword... well, maybe not a hundred million, but it would easily fetch tens of millions."

Gu Shengsheng was genuinely stunned.

’After all these years, for a relic like this to still exist... and for this kid to be the one to prove its authenticity... He’s definitely not your average rich kid.’

’If he can just casually bring out a sword like this, it must be a family heirloom.’

Just then, the man who had rushed over earlier also smiled.

He said, "It’s absolutely authentic. The sword doesn’t belong to me. I am the butler of the Zhao family, and our Family Head instructed me to bring it here for Zheng Dacheng to inspect."

"The Zhao family..." Gu Shengsheng remembered the famous Zhao family from the Capital. "You’re descendants of Zhao Zilong, aren’t you?"

"We are," he answered, his voice firm and unwavering.

Zheng Dacheng’s eyes nearly popped out of his head. ’It’s over, it’s completely over! I won’t just be run out of town here... my career is finished everywhere!’

His reputation as an appraisal expert was utterly ruined!

Zheng Dacheng immediately started spouting excuses. "I misjudged! I misjudged! It’s my mistake."

"You can see I’m just not myself today, making one mistake after another. I didn’t even recognize a descendant of Zhao Zilong. Didn’t even get a proper look at the sword."

"Guess I’m really getting old!" he said, trying to laugh it off and slip away.

But the young man immediately stopped him. "Even now, you’re still trying to talk your way out of it. You don’t know the first thing about this, yet you pretend to be an expert. Do you have any idea how many people you’ve scammed?"

He was filled with righteous fury.

"I came here today to expose you for the fraud you are! Don’t think you can keep running your scams in this part of town!"

Zheng Dacheng rolled up his sleeves.

"And who the hell are you? Kid, there’s no point in you constantly targeting me. You just tricked me! I could sue you for that! Make you pay for my emotional distress!"

"And you’re still not finished, are you?" Zheng Dacheng planted his hands on his hips. "Let’s see what you’ve got, you little delivery boy!"

The young man obviously wanted to reveal his own status to put the man in his place, but his family had forbidden it. In the end, he kept his mouth shut.

Gu Shengsheng could see how frustrated and helpless he looked.

She motioned for him to stand behind her.

Then she turned to Zheng Dacheng. "Did you really think you could just walk away? You’re being rather naive, Mr. Zheng."

"Hey, what do you think you’re doing, you streamer? I don’t have time to waste on you lot today!"

He grew angrier as he spoke. "Get the hell out of here! Do you really think you can threaten me just because you have a few followers? I’m a member of the Appraisers’ Association!"

"If you’ve got the balls, then call the police and have me arrested!"

The words had barely left his mouth when Gu Shengsheng replied, "Yes, it’s good you’re self-aware. I already have."

"The police?" He clutched his head, pacing back and forth in exasperation.

"Hey, are you out of your mind, you little brat?"

"Did you forget to take your meds today? Are you crazy? You’re just wasting public resources!"

"Just get lost and stop causing trouble!"

After he said this, the young man who drove the Lamborghini became nervous. "Miss Gu, please don’t get dragged into this because of me."

"I just wanted to see him embarrassed. Sending him to jail is probably impossible." He understood this, but he was still deeply moved.

’Miss Gu, someone I’ve only just met, was willing to help me. If she ever needs anything in the future, I’d go through hell and high water for her!’

Gu Shengsheng gave him a look that said, "It’s fine."

Then she continued, "They’ll be here in about two minutes. You might as well wait. Wouldn’t it be even more humiliating if they had to arrest you at your own home?"

"On what grounds? You don’t actually think they can arrest me just because you called, do you?"

"All I did today was embarrass myself a little by failing an appraisal. When did I ever commit a crime?"

"You haven’t? So everything you’re wearing is legally yours? That pendant..." Gu Shengsheng’s gaze fell on the necklace he was wearing.

He quickly retorted, "Are you nuts? What, you want me to give you this thing in exchange for you calling off the cops?"

"No. The item around your neck is illegal. What you’re wearing is mammoth ivory, isn’t it?"

"Mammoth ivory dates back ten thousand years. The tusks are larger than those of modern elephants. Most have calcified or petrified over time. Only a small fraction, preserved in the Arctic permafrost, is suitable for carving and wearing."

"And what a coincidence, yours happens to be one of those rare pieces. Yet you wear it every day while running your scams. If I didn’t report you today, someone else would have eventually."

"Th-that’s... what nonsense are you spouting..." He turned around and saw uniformed police officers.

Gu Shengsheng walked right over and pointed him out. "That’s the man I reported. Officers, he must be dealt with severely."

"...You!" Zheng Dacheng pointed at her, clutching his chest in a fit of rage.

Gu Shengsheng said, "Oh, no need to thank me. The sooner you’re locked up, the sooner you can be rehabilitated."

"Goodbye, Mr. Zheng."

...

This was the first person Gu Shengsheng had gotten sent to the police, and her online viewers were, naturally, even more thrilled.

"Holy crap! Streamer, you’re something else. You were probably targeting his pendant from the very beginning, using the sword as a misdirection..."

"When a rich kid wants revenge, they just make the person suffer a little. You just send them straight to prison. You’re on another level."

"I’m not impressed easily, but I’ll bow to you. 666."

Keep up the excellent work, Host!

Gu Shengsheng looked at the Chicken Blood Stone. ’Not bad...’ She was rather fond of things like those priceless ’chicken cups.’ She just hadn’t found any suitable items on the market yet. ’Maybe I can take the System out for a "shopping trip" another day.’

Seeing that things were pretty much wrapped up, and noticing a lot of time had passed, she realized it was almost midnight. Time for bed.

Just as she was about to head back, the rich kid rushed over.

He said, "Miss Gu, thank you so much for today! Words aren’t enough to express my gratitude. If you ever need anything from me in the future, just say the word."

He then pulled up his WeChat QR code. "Add me as a friend!"

"...What’s your name?" Gu Shengsheng asked while scanning the code.

"Zhao Han. Hehe."

"Oh, so you’re the ’young master’ descended from Zhao Zilong. That means your brother must be the Family Head, and you were the one who called the butler over, weren’t you!"

"Aren’t you going to get a beating for bringing your family’s heirloom out like that?"

Gu Shengsheng asked curiously.

But Zhao Han just stared at her in disbelief. "What kind of superpower do you have? Did you run a background check on me or something?"
