41: Guests gathered, and wealth came from all directions.

Nelson was very surprised to hear that the two of them knew Ross.

Since his master started running a car dealership, he had almost completely left the motorcycle industry.

How did these two know his master?

After some conversation, he learned that Qin Yun and Ross were on very good terms, which put his mind at ease.

If his master took action, the harley motorcycle would definitely be assembled correctly.

"My master Ross is an Expert in assembling motorcycles. He has the connections to get original components, so this antique Harley from over sixty years ago can definitely be put back together."

Thinking of the connection the two had with his master, Nelson became even more cordial toward them.

He took the initiative to talk about the things Ross had achieved in the motorcycle world during his youth.

Qin Yun hadn't expected that henpecked Ross to have such talent, and he was secretly delighted.

He took out his phone and called Ross.

"I'm at Nelson's repair shop. There's a pile of harley motorcycle parts here, and he says only you can assemble them..."

Before Qin Yun could finish, the person on the other end of the line immediately agreed.

"That's a small matter. Wait there, I'll head over right away!"

Ross was very happy to receive the call.

Qin Yun was already a celebrity in the Treasure Hunting Circle, and Ross was still hoping to buy Kobe-related collectibles from him.

Hearing it was about assembling a motorcycle, he agreed immediately.

In less than twenty minutes, a pickup truck appeared in front of the repair shop.

"Hey, Qin, where are the parts you mentioned?"

Ross walked up to Qin Yun with a smile.

Upon learning they were in the back of the pickup, he put on gloves, climbed into the truck bed, and began seriously inspecting the parts.

After sorting the parts into two or three small piles, he took a deep breath and his expression relaxed.

"The main parts are all here, and they've been preserved fairly well. I should be able to assemble it."

"This is a 1200cc panhead from 1955. Jackson once had a '56 KHK; while this one isn't as classic as the '56 model, it still has very high collection value."

"What's a panhead?"

Hearing such a strange name, Qin Yun couldn't help but ask.

Seeing the confusion on the faces of Qin Yun and Julia, Ross took the initiative to explain.

"The panhead is an early classic model that pioneered Harley's history of luxury cruisers."

"Because the rocker arms and rocker shafts are placed inside a cover that looks like an inverted pan, and aluminum was used for the cylinder heads, enthusiasts call it the panhead."

"This model has a center-stand spring and the seat is positioned further forward, making it very comfortable to ride. You can even take it on cross-state trips..."

Ross's admiration for Qin Yun grew even more.

In his ten-plus years of riding, he had seen only a handful of antique Harleys in Borton City that could compare to this one.

In just a few days, Qin Yun had acquired so many precious collectibles; this man would surely become a big shot in the treasure hunting world.

Making friends with someone like this was definitely a win.

Knowing that the parts could be pieced together into a classic Harley, Qin Yun was very happy.

"As long as you help me assemble it, just name your price."

They were old acquaintances, so Qin Yun felt very safe entrusting this matter to Ross.

Ross shook his head in refusal.

"With our relationship, why talk about money?"

"If you find any collectibles related to basketball, especially Kobe, just make sure I'm the first one you contact."

Ross finished speaking and quickly called Nelson over to help move the parts onto his truck.

Qin Yun also hurried forward to help. Once everything was moved,

He looked at Ross with a serious expression.

"Then I'll have to trouble you. If there's ever anything you need from me in the future, just say the word."

Seeing Ross being so proactive, Qin Yun sighed inwardly.

This friendship was truly worth it; Ross was so enthusiastic, asked for nothing in return, and had already helped him several times.

In the future, if he found anything related to basketball, he would definitely contact Ross.

"I can have it assembled in two or three days. I'll notify you as soon as it's ready," Ross promised.

After giving his word, Ross waved goodbye and drove toward his car dealership.

It was now past eight in the evening. After saying goodbye to Nelson, Qin Yun and Julia drove home.

"I'll ask my dad when we get back. He should know someone who restores antique furniture."

Julia hadn't expected the Harley matter to go so smoothly.

The person assembling it was their acquaintance Ross, who seemed like a successful businessman but turned out to be an Expert in this field.

However, remembering the ming dynasty Red Sandalwood furniture, she took the initiative to suggest a solution.

Qin Yun nodded in agreement.

Hank had deep connections in Borton City and would surely be able to find an Expert in that field.

As soon as the two entered the front door, they found Hank watching television in the living room.

Julia hurriedly told her father about what had happened in Salem.

After listening, Hank looked at Qin Yun with eyes full of approval.

Back when this kid had just started making a name for himself at a Warehouse Auction, Hank felt that Qin Yun was unusual.

He hadn't expected him to rise to prominence in the Treasure Hunting Circle so quickly.

He felt relieved that his daughter was with Qin Yun.

"Dad, do you know any Experts who restore antique furniture?"

Julia looked at her father with a serious expression.

"Of course I do. I've been in this business for so many years; is there anyone I don't know?"

Hank affectionately patted Julia's head, stood up, and took a business card out of a drawer.

"This person is an old master from the museum who specializes in repairing antique furniture. With him, the ming dynasty furniture will surely be perfectly restored."

After saying this, Hank handed the business card to Qin Yun.

"Thank you."

Qin Yun took the card, said goodnight to the two of them, and went upstairs to rest.

The issues with the antique Harley and the ming dynasty furniture now had solutions.

All that was left was to wait for the Collectors to come to the second-hand shop so he could sell off the good items he had accumulated.

Early the next morning, Qin Yun and Julia went to the shop together.

They planned to check on the shop's status and take the ming dynasty furniture to be restored.

As soon as they got out of the car, they saw a large crowd gathered at the shop's entrance.

Quite a few people were crowding around the front desk, saying something to Li Qiang.

Fearing that something bad had happened at the shop, Qin Yun and Julia rushed inside.

Only when they saw that everything was fine did they breathe a sigh of relief.

Many people were questioning Li Qiang about something.

Li Qiang was covered in sweat and looked overwhelmed, unable to handle so many people.

Dewey stood motionlessly beside the front desk.

His usually expressionless face also showed a hint of panic.

"The boss is here."

Dewey couldn't handle so many enthusiastic big shots, but he was still alert, keeping an eye on everything to protect the shop's security.

Seeing that the boss had arrived, he shouted out happily.

When the crowd heard that the owner had arrived, they all turned toward the door.

"It really is the Eastern Kid. He's finally here."

"It's good that he's here. I can't wait to buy that Harley."

Upon seeing it was Qin Yun, everyone crowded around him.

"Excuse me, where are the harley motorcycle parts kept? I want to buy them now!"

"Are you selling the antique furniture? I'll offer a high price!"

"Boss, is everything here for sale?"

"Don't push! I was the first one here. Everyone line up and speak one by one!"

...The crowd was very excited to see Qin Yun and began offering prices one after another, wanting to claim the items they had their eyes on.

Hearing the chaotic noise, Qin Yun finally understood.

These Collectors he had met in Salem had rushed over so quickly.

For the sake of treasures, these people were truly desperate—they had arrived even earlier than he did!
