Chapter 152: Chapter 152 This Grandson Deserves It_1
Han Shuying ran over adorably and picked up the piece of Ice-type Imperial Green belonging to Sun Yiran.
This piece was even bigger than the one she had sold.
The appraisal value wouldn’t be less than 1.3 million!
Of course, this value couldn’t compare with the palm-sized piece of Glass-Type Imperial Green in Bai Xiaosheng’s hands!
Sun Tianli’s brows furrowed as he watched Bai Xiaosheng with a sharp gaze.
Sun Yiran had lost in the divination stone competition against an unarmed opponent!
This young man had actually gambled out a piece of Glass-Type Imperial Green!
Where on earth did this Bai Xiaosheng learn such skill!
Such thoughts in Sun Tianli’s mind were fleeting as he saw the foolish-looking Sun Yiran on the side, with a face full of confusion and helplessness, which suddenly pained his heart.
Whether in divining stone or anything else, one needed to have confidence, as this would make one seem divinely assisted.
From birth until now, Sun Yiran had been sheltered by his family, everything going smoothly for him. He had become "Sir Ran" at a young age without ever experiencing any setbacks, and the consecutive defeats were too much of a blow for him.
Sun Tianli watched Bai Xiaosheng with cold eyes, adjusting his emotions, preparing to have a "good talk" with him shortly.
The surrounding bosses had been restless for a while.
Xie Youxin was the first to speak as usual.
"Young brother, are you selling this piece of jade? I’ll make a high offer..."
"I’ll offer even higher!" Boss Zhou refused to be outdone.
"So will I."
"We will too!"
Once this started, a crowd swarmed up and surrounded Bai Xiaosheng.
"What, are you planning to rob me?" Bai Xiaosheng joked with a laugh.
No one was robbing, but each one of them had their eyes sparkling, fixating on the red velvet cloth in Bai Xiaosheng’s arms like hungry wolves eyeing meat.
"There’s no hurry for this. Is anyone interested in the piece of Ice-type Imperial Green in Han Shuying’s hands? Highest bidder wins," Bai Xiaosheng said, nodding towards the jade in Han Shuying’s hands.
At that moment, Han Shuying’s face was flushed with excitement, and she looked at Bai Xiaosheng with eyes filled with admiration and a touch of obedience.
She didn’t mind playing the role of a model at all, holding the jade up to show everyone.
It was also a piece of fine material!
Although it was not as stunning as the Glass-Type, it was still supreme quality!
"I bid 1.3 million!"
"I bid 1.32 million!"
"I bid 1.35 million!"
The price soared in an instant, making the bystanders feel amused, as the stone gambling scene turned into an auction event.
In the end, the piece sold for 1.55 million to Boss Zhou.
Bai Xiaosheng handed his bank card to Han Shuying, asking her to take care of the transaction.
Having gained a great benefit from Bai Xiaosheng, Han Shuying dutifully went with an employee of Boss Zhou to handle the matter without a second word.
Boss Zhou himself did not dare to leave, for Bai Xiaosheng still held an enormous treasure in his hands!
"Alright, I know you all want the piece of jade I have here," Bai Xiaosheng spoke loudly, "But I’m not selling it!"
He looked resolute, his tone brooking no further discussion.
The enclosing bosses suddenly seemed disappointed.
"However!" Bai Xiaosheng raised his voice, "I would like to invite a capable Jade Stone Shop to find me a master who can craft this piece into jewelry, jade bracelets, and pendants. After it’s done, I only want a pair of bracelets and two pendants. The rest can be considered the craftsman’s fee and a reward for your troubles. Is anyone interested in collaborating?"
Bai Xiaosheng held onto the jade, his heart already having agreed with Red Lotus.
After calculating with Red Lotus, the material inside could make a pair of jade bracelets, with at least five or six small pieces remaining. He would pick a pair of pendants, and there would still be a few leftover small pieces.
This is a Glass-Type Imperial Green jadeite. Even a small piece of jewelry, if handled well, can fetch an extremely high price!
All of a sudden, the owners of various Jade Stone Shops perked up, each eager to volunteer their services.
"Let’s hear it, what are the names of your shops?" Bai Xiaosheng called out loudly.
The names of eight or nine shops were reported, and Bai Xiaosheng had Red Lotus filter through them.
Selecting those with the best reputation, the least negative news, and the finest craftsmanship.
And the one chosen in the end turned out to be Xie Youxin.
This Old Xie, Bai Xiaosheng watched with a cold eye, had originally thought him to be a slick and cunning merchant, but it turned out his reputation was excellent, even once receiving a banner for returning tens of thousands in cash to a tourist.
Bai Xiaosheng was surprised, but also quite satisfied.
"Brother Bai, Min has worked in legal affairs before, let her help you with this." Zhang Min, who had been watching the commotion from the side, suddenly called out.
Bai Xiaosheng glanced at her and nodded with a smile.
Min’s gaze towards Bai Xiaosheng was complex, containing surprise as well as admiration.
"Don’t worry, I’m a professional."
Leaving that statement behind, Min hurried off with the jadeite in tow, accompanied by Xie Youxin.
Seeing that there was nothing more for them to do, the other shop owners, filled with regret, began to disperse slowly.
On the outskirts of the crowd, Sun Yiran glared fixatedly at Bai Xiaosheng, his eyes nearly bursting with rage, his fists clenched so tightly that his knuckles turned white, and his nails dug into his flesh, as if harboring a deep and abiding hatred!
Sir Ran in all his glory.
Now reduced to a nobody, the people at his side weren’t even looking at him, and those who did were whispering lowly about his failure and mocking his incompetence!
That’s what Sun Yiran believed.
An endless shame churned within him, and the man responsible for all of this was that very man!
"Sir Ran, don’t take it too much to heart. It’s just that the kid got lucky for a moment," Zhang Xiaoqiu said somewhat awkwardly, trying to console him.
Even he felt his own words were dry and hardly convincing.
"Hmph, just a fool who doesn’t know when he’s out of his depth. He doesn’t realize the reach of our Sir Ran’s family. If Uncle Sun speaks out, he won’t be able to get a foothold in Tiannan!" Chen Xue said indignantly.
"Enough!" Sun Yiran suddenly snapped in a low growl, his voice deep and frightening as it squeezed from his throat.
Zhang Xiaoqiu and Chen Xue immediately shut their mouths, not daring to utter another word.
Over there.
Sun Tianli stood up and walked straight towards Bai Xiaosheng. It seemed he had given a signal, for those shop owners immediately moved far away, and the staff began to persuade onlookers to leave.
Now, only the elderly and the young man remained.
"Young man, you’ve done well with the divining stone," Sun Tianli said with a smile.
"You flatter me," Bai Xiaosheng smiled in response.
He was well aware of what the old man truly meant to say.
"In your eyes, all this is nothing but good luck," Bai Xiaosheng laughed, "and I’m sure you didn’t come over specifically to tell me that."
Sun Tianli nodded with a smile.
"You see, I have a thing for antiques and jade, and Mr. Yiran shares this interest, though his father isn’t into these things. He’s a businessman with some reputation in the Tiannan business world. I’m thinking of offering you a great opportunity. Do you want it?"
A great opportunity! What grandiosity!
Is such arrogance innate in this family?
Bai Xiaosheng’s eyebrows quirked. "I wonder, what should I trade for this great opportunity you speak of? Do I need to admit defeat to Mr. Yiran openly?"
"That would be too fake," Sun Tianli shook his head and lowered his voice. "I want you to say that all of today’s events were prearranged by you and Yiran, just a harmless farce between young people, and that the Glass-Type was actually selected by Yiran long ago!"
Bai Xiaosheng laughed heartily.
Sun Tianli frowned.
"Old man, there should be a limit to indulgence! If I had lost earlier, I reckon all you people would only laugh at me for overestimating myself! Would there be any sympathy?" Bai Xiaosheng said with a laugh. "When interacting with others, one should be responsible. After all, not everyone in this world is his grandfather who needs to indulge him! So—"
Bai Xiaosheng sighed deeply, "This grandson deserves his comeuppance!"
