“Young man, sell me the jade thumb ring, and I’ll transfer 150 million to you right away.” Another old man trembled with excitement.
"what are you thinking?"
"I offered 100 million before it was even finished being scraped."
"You want to take 150 million now? Dream on."
"Brother, don't listen to him, I'll offer 200 million."
Master Fiery Eyes' lips trembled as he directly quoted a price.
"280 million!"
"300 million!"
"400"
Not long after, the Fiery Eye Master raised the price to 400 million.
However, Lu Chenyang still ignored him.
Instead, he handed the jade thumb ring in his hand to Zhu Nini, who was staring blankly, saying, "Nini, here you go."
"As I just said, as long as you trust me, I will never let you down. Don't you see, we've turned misfortune into blessing?" Lu Chenyang looked at Zhu Nini and smiled faintly.
Feeling the envious, jealous, and hateful gazes of everyone, Zhu Nini felt that all the grievances she had just suffered were worth it.
She stepped forward and hugged Lu Chenyang tightly. "Mr. Lu, thank you so much. You've helped us again."
"Um... Nini, could you stand up and talk first?" Lu Chenyang looked at Su Zichen opposite him, and immediately felt so embarrassed that he started scratching his toes.
She gently pushed Zhu Nini away, saying, "Don't be polite, you deserve it."
"Fake! Fake! It's all fake. How could there be imperial green jade in that pile of junk?" The young couple in front of the stall were filled with regret.
It was supposed to be junk that I bought for a few thousand yuan, but it turned out that it contained rough jade worth tens of thousands of yuan.
What was even more unexpected was that the rough jade actually contained imperial green!
Having been in this business for so many years, they naturally know very well that this jade thumb ring can sell for at least 500 million.
In other words, they painstakingly set up the scheme, made 10 yuan, but ultimately lost 500 million yuan.
"That jade thumb ring is ours, give it back to us quickly."
"I'll transfer 10 yuan to you, just give us back the jade thumb ring quickly."
"We're not selling."
The woman in front of the stall had red eyes and rushed towards Zhu Nini without regard for anything else.
Lu Chenyang kicked the other person away, saying, "You just said it yourself, cash on delivery."
"Once the transaction is completed, there is no going back on it."
“That’s right,” Su Zichen chimed in. “You were the ones who tried to force us to buy that pile of junk.”
"Now that you've discovered there's treasure inside, you're backing out?"
"So many people here saw it; the transaction is complete."
"You're just saying you won't sell it, and then you just leave?"
"Too late!"
The man retorted defiantly, "So what if they saw it?"
"Give us back our things right now!"
"At worst, we'll just move to another place where nobody knows us, and we'll still keep setting up our stall."
Su Zichen retorted without backing down, "Everyone has seen it, this jade thumb ring belongs to Zhu Nini."
“If you dare to try to rob me, I can call the police immediately.”
"I guarantee you'll spend the New Year inside, working on a sewing machine."
"This..." Those were the words they had just spoken to Zhu Fengchun, but now Su Zichen had returned them verbatim.
The elaborate scheme they devised earned them 10 yuan, but they ended up losing millions.
The couple was heartbroken.
"Ahhh, that's imperial green!"
"This is the first time in my life I've ever seen Imperial Green."
"It's worth more than 500 million yuan. We could never earn that much money in our entire lives."
The couple was filled with remorse and completely broke down.
However, no one at the scene sympathized with them.
They plotted and schemed to trap people.
If they see an opportunity to profit, they'll turn on you on the spot.
Such a person is not fit to be a businessman, or even a human being.
This time, they deserved to suffer such a crushing defeat.
The matter here has been resolved, and Zhu Fengchun leaves with Zhu Nini.
Zhu Nini waved goodbye to Lu Chenyang with reluctance.
"Honey, do you know anything about antique collecting and appraising cultural artifacts?"
Su Zichen stared intently at Lu Chenyang.
She found her husband becoming increasingly mysterious.
She found herself increasingly unable to understand this man.
Hidden inside the porcelain base was a fake jade, and inside the fake jade was a real jade.
Even the top appraiser in China's jade province, Master Fiery Eye, couldn't tell the difference, but Lu Chenyang could see through it at a glance.
That means his appraisal skills are definitely no less than those of Master Fiery Eyes.
"I don't know anything about appraising treasures, I just got lucky," Lu Chenyang replied, half-jokingly.
In fact, he really didn't understand the world of antiques and collectibles, let alone the art of appraising treasures.
However, one of the mystical arts he practiced was called the art of observing qi.
He could see a person's fortunes and misfortunes at a glance, and he could also see the spiritual energy contained in things.
The porcelain base looked dilapidated, but Lu Chenyang could see that it was enveloped in spiritual energy.
This means there must be something special hidden inside.
"Honey, you're just being modest again."
"If you rely solely on luck, you will never make the right choices again and again."
"You not only know medicine, but you also know how to appraise antiques. You are really amazing. I admire you a little."
Su Zichen gazed intently at Lu Chenyang, her eyes filled with adoration.
"Su Zichen, you're shopping here too?" Just then, a surprised voice came from over.
Lu Chenyang turned his head and saw that the person who came was none other than Deng Lingling.
He was accompanied by a young man with slicked-back hair and gold-rimmed glasses.
Su Zichen recognized the young man; his name was Song Yanqing, and he was Deng Lingling's boyfriend.
"Sister Lingling, what a coincidence!" Su Zichen greeted her with a smile. "Grandma asked us to pick out a gift for Chairman Zhuo, so I just wandered around here."
"Pick out a gift for Chairman Zhuo in a place like this?" Deng Lingling's expression was extremely strange.
Unable to resist, she sarcastically remarked, "Su Zichen, you're now the chairman's assistant, and you're in charge of the Sanjiang Chamber of Commerce's projects."
"That puts him in the upper echelons of the entire Su Group."
"And what happened? You actually bought this cheap knock-off as a gift for Chairman Zhuo?"
“You’re not ashamed, but the entire Su family is.”
Song Yanqing, who was next to him, also shook her head, "Cousin Zichen, since it's a gift, it should naturally be something presentable."
"Moreover, this time it's a big shot like Chairman Zhuo."
“If you use these cheap goods as gifts and anger Chairman Zhuo, the entire Su family will be implicated.”
"In that case, you might as well not send it at all."
"This..." Su Zichen looked embarrassed but couldn't refute it.
He never had much savings. Later, Su Youfei gave them 200 million yuan, but Tang Yurong took it all back.
He only has a few hundred thousand yuan to his name right now.
Even the cheapest items in the shopping area cost more than that.
Not to mention the real treasures in the auction house.
"No, no, I was just browsing around. How could I possibly buy a gift for Chairman Zhuo from the street vendor area?"
Su Zichen shook her head repeatedly in denial.
Actually, it's not so bad that he embarrasses himself.
But if he really angered Chairman Zhuo by giving a gift and then took his anger out on the Su family, then that would be his fault.
Even if Chairman Zhuo doesn't blame me, Grandma will still be angry if I send her something from a street stall.
