Chapter 351: Chapter 247: Active or Passive?

"But why would you do this?" Li Yong was somewhat puzzled at this moment. Previously, this girl was indifferent to both of them, so why is she suddenly treating them specially now?

Logically, selling the whole piece would be more beneficial for her; after all, several people were bidding. Could it be that she wanted to split it into four parts for auction? But there was no need to directly promise them a portion.

"I liked it, so I did it."

Sui Yi’s answer stunned the two elder predecessors. Meanwhile, the teacher had already precisely cut the jade into four parts, weighing them separately. Sui Yi glanced at them once and declared, "One thousand three, one thousand four, one thousand five, one thousand eight, the four pieces priced separately. Elder Jiang, which one do you want?"

Splitting it into four parts was one thing, but even letting Elder Jiang and his companion choose first? Moreover, the total price was only 6000 million, several million less than the original possibly higher price.

Such a proactive businessman?

Many jewelers were troubled; this was obviously an inside job.

This girl’s actions were quite strange indeed.

"Ha, of course the one thousand eight piece, miss, thank you!" Li Yong was extremely pleased. His fondness for Sui Yi surged, but he also pondered the meaning behind her actions. Was the answer really just capricious?

There were still three pieces left.

"Boss Niu, what about you?"

Suddenly called by name, Boss Niu was taken aback for a moment. After being looked at by the people next to him several times, he finally came to his senses, "Ah? Me? Are you calling me? Are you selling it to me?"

"Yes," Sui Yi nodded.

"Okay, okay, I’ll take it!" Boss Niu felt a sense of reversal of fortunes today. He thought he wouldn’t outbid people like Zou Xueqin today, but unexpectedly he still got a share. Now, which of these three pieces should he choose... Boss Niu looked at the largest piece, subconsciously glancing at Xiao Xianting and his companion, and instantly chose the smallest piece.

Since there wasn’t much difference, why offend these two youngsters who clearly were not easy to mess with. After all, he also mingled in the Provincial City; business should be conducted in harmony to generate wealth.

Of course, if it were not in Provincial City, then it would be another matter.

For the last two pieces, Sui Yi looked up at Xiao Xianting and Zou Xueqin, her expression calm and determined, "What about you two?"

Of course, they would take it! If not, it would just benefit others.

Zou Xueqin would definitely not refuse, and Xiao Xianting, who usually actively hunted, being manipulated by Sui Yi, could he possibly explode?

"If Mr. Xiao doesn’t want them, both can be mine," Zou Xueqin said with an easy laugh, while Xiao Xianting’s assistant behind him was already wiping sweat. He thought that Miss Sui was really courting death. Didn’t she realize that her actions were completely provocative?

Suddenly, he heard his boss’s voice, "Pay."

Huh?

Xiao Xianting looked at Sui Yi, his expression as usual, unchanging, but his eyes grew deeper, eventually turning into a slight curl of his lips, "With such kindness from Miss Sui, Mr. Xiao can hardly refuse."

It’s not a gift! What a pretentious predator!

Gong Jiu felt the gaze Xiao Xianting cast at Sui Yi was somewhat dangerous, a predatory hostility and sense of slaughter like a wolf encountering a sheep.

With four parts successfully sold, firecrackers crackled loudly, and those present were bustling with excitement, yet Sui Yi quietly left with her people.

For Sui Yi’s actions, Pan Ling was internally pleased; one could guess how the typically domineering Xiao Xianting would view Sui Yi unfavorably.

And yet, most jewelers significantly changed their view of Sui Yi; firstly, she had actively reduced her own income, and secondly, she had given face to these jewelers.

Boss Niu could be said to be their representative. Her deliberate mention of Boss Niu, previously the most active competitor, also meant to appease them...

This girl was very sensible!

"This girl’s family must have a business in Provincial City, and in the jewelry industry as well," Jiang Yun suddenly remarked, making Li Yong think and then exclaim in surprise, "You mean her main purpose is to deal with Xiao Lang? She didn’t want this Yellow Jade to completely end up in his stomach?"

"Otherwise why point out Boss Niu and you and me? You and that Mr. Niu are from Provincial City, while Zou Xueqin is an old enemy of Xiao Lang. From any perspective, the disposal of these three portions of Yellow Jade is unfavorable to Xiao Lang. Divide and conquer, balance all around, watertight, having such a junior, her elders are very fortunate," Jiang Yun rarely spoke so much, paused then added deeply, "and she’s also incredibly bold."

So bold to confront Xiao Lang directly.

At that moment, Xiao Xianting’s assistant, along with the bodyguard, fetched the Yellow Jade and also heard his boss’s murmuring, "I was wondering whether to make a move myself, but instead, you took the initiative. Interesting."
