No one in the antique business is a fool. Both the top and bottom are sticklers for details.

Take a step back and it's brotherly respect; take a step forward and it's deep affection; go further still and it's a lifetime together. Grow old side by side, happily ever after.

Henry Bennett: "What I love most in this business is jade. Jade comes in all grades, and so do people—some are dragons and phoenixes, some are ants. Since my name is Hanbai, of course I deserve the finest jade."

Samuel Grant: "Senior brother, you've always been the best."

Henry Bennett: "If I'm the best, then am I not worthy to be your beloved?" (The top is just shameless, insisting on being together.)
