Chapter 884: Chapter 885 Having an Idea but Beaten to the Punch

"Thank you, ’Love Conquers All’ brothers for your support!"

The girl known as Little Demon glanced around and her expression immediately became tense. She quickly looked around and then whispered, "Don’t speak so loudly! What if someone hears and competes with us?"

"What’s there to be afraid of? Who would believe my phone can see through objects? Besides, even if someone heard, I’m not worried. If it comes to that, we’ll just find another piece," the man didn’t care at all. He seemed to feel that he had already found his target, and thus he stopped looking and put his phone back into his pocket.

Their actions didn’t alert anyone.

Although Li Changlin was standing not far away, he didn’t notice them.

Honestly, the square was very crowded, the noise overwhelming, and someone was delivering a speech from the podium—Li Changlin couldn’t possibly distract himself to watch the actions of others.

Having selected a rough stone, he continued to check other stones in the pile. After all, he had invested a total of twenty billion yuan, with another five billion yuan in reserve, so Li Changlin was not very worried. As long as the rough stones could potentially bring in several times their value, he would generally bring them up to Tang Hongyuan or Tang Ying, who would record them, then notify the Tang Family Descendants.

Having checked such a load, more than two minutes had passed. Looking at how time-consuming this was, Li Changlin walked forward, declaring in a deep voice, "I will directly point out the locations soon. Pay attention and note them down quickly; then promptly inform the clan members."

"Understood."

"Got it."

Tang Hongyuan and Tang Ying knew what was at stake. While the opening ceremony was still ongoing, they first noted down the stones likely to contain fine jade stones, putting themselves ahead of the competition.

Thus, Li Changlin led them to sift through the many stone piles, and soon they had checked sixteen stone piles. On Tang Hongyuan’s side, sixteen Tang Family Descendants had also been arranged.

Once the ceremony ended and the tourists were allowed to buy the rough stones, these Tang Family Descendants would purchase all the marked stones.

Each of the Tang Family Descendants carried a bank card. For this grand event, the Tang Family had made very detailed preparations, based on the suggestions that Li Changlin had made during his visit.

By the time they reached the seventeenth stone pile, the lengthy speech on the podium had finally ended, and all the stone piles on the square were opened to the public.

Then, the well-prepared Tang Family Descendants immediately sprang into action, moving towards the stone piles to make purchases.

The owners of these sixteen stone piles suddenly felt the enthusiasm of the buyers.

Under the lead of the sixteen Tang Family Descendants, all the stones Li Changlin had pointed out were bought up.

In a short while, the owners had already earned one or two billion yuan.

Twenty billion yuan might seem a lot, but if truly going all out in purchasing, it didn’t take too much time.

Listening to the reports of the clan members, Tang Hongyuan’s face couldn’t help but twitch.

He stole a glance at Li Changlin and saw that he was calm, seemingly unaffected by everything around him.

Thinking about Li Changlin’s remarkable observational abilities, Tang Hongyuan’s heart finally began to calm down.

Even if he didn’t trust himself, he had to admit that Li Changlin truly had skills.

Whether it was those two times in Jincheng or the occasion with Blood Jade in the provincial city, it all seemed vivid in his mind—Tang Hongyuan had no grounds to doubt Li Changlin.

Soon, they had passed by twenty-four stone piles.

Meanwhile, a small incident happened elsewhere.

The man whose phone had X-ray vision, as soon as the opening ceremony ended, he immediately pushed forward with Little Demon toward the front.

Reaching the stone pile where he had spotted glutinous-jade, he excitably waved and shouted, "Hey, over here! Just one person, I want to buy a stone."

"Hello, sir, which stone would you like to buy?" A burly man in a suit and tie approached as the man called out.

The man pointed at the stone he had chosen, asking, "What price are you selling this stone for?"

The burly man looked in the direction the man was pointing and then stretched out his right hand with all fingers extended, quoting "500,000."

"It’s so expensive!" Little Demon exclaimed, her face immediately souring.

Together, they had only a little more than 100,000 yuan.

500,000 yuan for a single stone was indeed a sky-high price for them.

However, the man remained composed and said lightly, "Okay, please get someone to send it to the cutting shed for me. I want it cut on site!"

This was because the man already knew there was glutinous-jade inside, so he wasn’t worried at all.

Although they didn’t have much money, if the glutinous-jade inside the stone was cut out, it would definitely bring a tenfold profit.

"Guo Chuyun, you need to think this through!" Little Demon’s face changed slightly. She was willing to believe in the man and knew his phone had special abilities, yet this was still 500,000 yuan at stake. If something unexpected happened with the stone, they would be done for!

"No problem, I have it figured out," Guo Chuyun said softly, patting Little Demon’s delicate hand; he really had no other choice.

Although his phone had X-ray capabilities, he didn’t have much capital and had to take this gamble.

"Okay, okay, I trust you." Ultimately, Little Demon nodded, choosing to trust him.

But then, the situation changed.

While Guo Chuyun was discussing with the burly man to get someone to take the stone to the cutting shed, another burly man in a black suit approached them, saying, "Brother Lian."

Turning around, the burly man’s face showed a faint smile, "Big Head, aren’t you supposed to be attending to the customers? Why are you here?"

"Brother Lian, a big customer just bought stones worth over ten million yuan, and I came over to help him pick them up!" Big Head chuckled, then under the stunned gaze of Guo Chuyun and Little Demon, he bent down and picked up the stone they had chosen.

"That stone was the one I had my eye on!" Guo Chuyun immediately felt a whirlwind of chaos.

Big Head turned around and laughed, "Sir, they’ve already paid!"

All the stones in the square were numbered. Li Changlin would let Tang Ying and Tang Hongyuan record the numbers of the stones he was interested in, and then the Tang Family Descendants could go directly to the stone pile payment area to pay. This also prevented others from getting there first.
