Chapter 94: Chapter 77: Jade Ownership, Mutation!

Half an hour later, a tender green jade the size of an egg had reached Sui Yi’s hands. Although it was still unpolished, it was already intoxicatingly beautiful. Coupled with its considerable size and its pure and gentle color, the price...

"2 million!"

"2.1 million!"

Boss Quan knew his son’s attempt to charm had failed; although he seemed indifferent on the surface, internally he was quite annoyed. Laughing, he said, "My dear niece, our family is in this business. I bid 2.15 million. Once this jade is designed, should there be a surplus, how about I send you a pendant as a gift?"

Hehehe, should there be a surplus?

Many people’s expressions soured; the old man’s words were cunning indeed.

Sui Yi glanced at him, and before she could speak, Yu Quan said, "2.5 million."

This displeased some of the jewelers. "Yu Quan, you’re not even in this industry, why are you stirring things up?"

This isn’t just cutting off our livelihood, it’s cutting off our future!

After all, the supply of jade material is absolutely key to whether a jewelry store can continue to operate long-term.

"Am I not allowed to keep some for a future daughter-in-law?" Yu Quan calmly stated; he wasn’t in the jewelry business and wasn’t afraid to offend these people.

Ha! You only have one son, at most one daughter-in-law. Need so much jade?

"2.6 million!" The plump Boss Wang gritted his teeth and added another hundred thousand.

His store was already short on jade materials recently, and if he didn’t buy some now, his store would sooner or later be doomed.

"2.61 million," Boss Qian couldn’t hold back anymore, others were also desperate; what can he do when none of his people could secure any jade material?

So, even though it was Sui Yi, a person he loathed to the core, he still had to swallow his pride.

Forget it, even if it meant letting her earn another 2.61 million from him—

As long as he got his hands on the jade material, he could naturally make the money back...

Fortunately, although the Qian sisters were not the sharpest tools in the shed, they knew not to make trouble now, just feeling utterly upset.

However, to everyone’s surprise, Sui Yi didn’t immediately accept Boss Qian’s offer and fell silent for a moment.

That silence, as if she was intentionally not selling the jade to them, instantly turned their upset feelings into hatred.

Zhou Ran watched Sui Yi intently, and after a moment of realization, suddenly spoke up, "Sui Yi, may I have a word with you?"

His tone was gentle, much like the tenderness he displayed when he saw Sui Yi in the store.

Whoa, this guy still plans to play the emotional card? Elder Tang sneered, although Sui Yi and his people got along well normally, but...

"Speak," Sui Yi said simply.

Extending from that, it could be understood as, speak right here.

Zhou Ran: "...". How was he supposed to continue?

Before Zhou Ran could try any new tactics, someone else chimed in.

"2.8 million."

Jumping up by one hundred ninety thousand in one breath.

Everyone was startled and turned their heads to see Boss Wang sweating profusely, glancing at Sui Yi with a bitter smile, "Miss Sui, I truly want to buy this. If someone offers a higher price than me, I’ll have to accept it."

Boss Wang was even more desperate than the Qian family, and it was no wonder he’d bet it all. He seemed more sincere than Boss Qian, who was haggling over every million.

Upon hearing this, Sui Yi smiled slightly, "Boss Wang’s jade items are excellent; I’m sure this piece of jade in your hands will certainly bloom with its own brilliance."

With those words, Boss Wang was stunned with joy.

Was that an agreement? And she even gave me a little advertisement, wow, what a cute girl!

That’s human nature; what one acquires with difficulty is always especially cherished. When hope is almost lost, just a little response can be deeply engraved in the heart.

Just as those bosses were leaving Lin Yun hanging, now wasn’t Sui Yi doing the same with these bosses,

When she personally decided to sell the jade to Boss Wang, it made him feel the warmth of a timely aid amid despair.

Of course, Boss Qian’s face darkened.

"2.8 million, that’s it? He can afford more; it’s just not possible to increase by so much all at once, and couldn’t the price still be negotiated? Why..."

This is precisely why Boss Qian was criticized by Elder Tang and the others.

Being shortsighted, lacking vision, focusing only on immediate, lesser gains.

Although Elder Tang was usually quite frugal, it depended on the circumstances...

Unlike Boss Qian who was habitually stingy...

As for Boss Wang, he couldn’t have been happier, his chubby face quivering with excitement. He moved closer to complete the transaction with Sui Yi, but just then Zhou Ran, growing desperate, abruptly called out, "Sui Yi..."
