Chapter 466 - 466 466 Opening a Jade Betting Stall

466: Chapter 466: Opening a Jade Betting Stall 466: Chapter 466: Opening a Jade Betting Stall “The first kind of medicinal herb: Seeking Nether Fragrant Grass, I don’t know what this herb is, many old Traditional Chinese Medicine doctors have said they don’t have it, and some have even said they’ve never heard of it!”

“The second kind of medicinal herb: Four-leaf Spiritual Grass, we also can’t find this one!”

“As for the third kind of medicinal herb, it also leaves me puzzled, called Women’s Flower!”

Su Xuan nodded in acknowledgement.

“Alright, I know, Seeking Nether Fragrant Grass, Four-leaf Spiritual Grass, and Women’s Flower, leave it to me to handle!”

Luo Li, after hearing what Su Xuan said, also quietly nodded in agreement.

“By the way, about the cooperation we discussed earlier, there have been recent developments.

My friends saw the Emperor Blood Jade you gave me and they all really want it, urging me to find more.

So, your business is coming in!”

“Really?

It seems these luxury jades are in high demand as well!” Su Xuan touched his nose, marveling at the thought.

“Of course, in the world of the wealthy, money has become just a string of numbers for them.

What they need is enjoyment—anything good for the body is highly attractive to them,” Luo Li explained.

“For them, jade is good for the body and it also best showcases their status.

The scarcer the jade, the more tempting it is to them; it becomes a desire that compels them to willingly spend their money.”

Luo Li analyzed clearly and Su Xuan found her explanation quite logical.

Jade has spiritual energy, it calms the mind and body!

True jade, if worn close to the skin over years, breathes with the wearer, becoming ever more delicate and gentle, full of vitality and spiritual energy.

Having jade on one’s person can stabilize the mind and spirit, tranquilize the heart, and even ward off evil and disasters.

Speaking of the supernatural, jade buried with the deceased can actually develop bloodlines within the green, that sudden appearance of bloodlines embodies the essence of the deceased’s blood qi and spiritual energy.

People nourish jade, and jade nourishes people!

Wearing jade over time, it absorbs the wearer’s blood qi, becoming increasingly glossy and moist, which can invigorate the blood and remove stasis, massage acupressure points, especially with jadeite, whose green color changes, expands and drifts as it absorbs the wearer’s blood qi, becoming longer and greener, very beautiful to behold.

In the summer, wearing a piece of jade jewelry on the neck feels icy cool, reducing heat and calming the spirit.

Jade integrates seamlessly with the body!

Everything about jade exudes an aura of elegance and transcendence.

Jade is a symbol of purity, sanctity, and good fortune, indispensable in people’s lives.

Its gleaming luster is soft and smooth, without sharp edges; it won’t chafe against the skin, and touching it feels warm and familiar.

Moreover, after wearing it for a long time, it seems to become daily more luminous and slick, which makes me believe it possesses spiritual energy.

The benefits of jade are numerous, naturally attracting these wealthy individuals to purchase scarce jade.

“My relatives and friends all need a piece of Emperor Blood Jade, and my friends’ friends will probably also try to find some rare jade.

So, if you have a source of scarce jade, I’m not short of buyers!”

Luo Li spoke with self-assurance, and Su Xuan naturally believed her.

The rich have their circles, and the poor have theirs; the idea being that different paths do not lead to common goals.

Rich people mostly know other rich people, while poor people mostly know others who aren’t very wealthy, though of course, this isn’t always the case.

Hearing Luo Li say this, Su Xuan understood a principle; that the scarce jade could already be considered a significant revenue for him.

Of course, Su Xuan naturally hoped to maintain his cooperation with Luo Li.

Luo Li needed his help, and he needed hers in return.

“My five friends need Emperor Blood Jade, and others do too.

But I didn’t agree with them immediately—after all, you probably don’t have too much of this wonderful Emperor Blood Jade!” Luo Li said with generous ease, her cultured and refined demeanor evident even in her speech.

“About so, if production is successful, I should have around five pieces of Emperor Blood Jade.

But, I have other scarce jades as well, which you could help me market!” Su Xuan said with a smile.

Luo Li laughed cheerily, looking incredibly beautiful: “I’m starting to feel like I’m acting as a broker!”

Su Xuan also laughed; Luo Li’s sense of humor had made him quite fond of her.

After discussing some matters related to healing with Su Xuan, Luo Li left Fang Shiyu’s shop.

Then, Su Xuan found Li Ting.

Li Ting had already started working at Fang Shiyu, dressed in a uniform, looking like quite the exemplary beauty.

Without a suitable job available, Li Ting had no choice but to work as a waitress for the time being.

Fang Shiyu’s operation was different from the Gambling Stone Mall.

In the mall, each worker was responsible for their designated area.

Salaries were commission-based, depending on performance.

Previously, when Li Ting worked at the Gambling Stone Mall, she was assigned to a thousand yuan area.

No matter how good her performance was, ten spots there couldn’t compare with one spot in the ten thousand yuan area; hence, the commission she received was negligible.

Li Ting also refused to let Zhang Tiancheng take advantage of her, so she continued to serve in the thousand yuan area.

Another girl who had started at the same time as Li Ting had succumbed to Zhang Tiancheng, and as a result, her career quickly soared.

She was soon assigned to the ten thousand yuan section, earning a monthly commission several times greater than Li Ting’s base salary, which made Li Ting quite envious.

However, Li Ting understood that those gains were the result of using one’s body as currency, and she did not want to fall into the same predicament.

Once a girl has fallen, regardless of how pitiful her reasons might be, or how much sympathy she might evoke, from the moment she errs, she must take responsibility for her choices.

Fortunately, Li Ting had met Su Xuan.

That’s why she came to Fang Shiyu.

Moreover, from what Li Ting learned through Lin Mengyao, the salary at Fang Shiyu was more than twice what she’d made at the Gambling Stone Mall, and most importantly, that was just the base salary.

Fang Shiyu also had a commission system, but unlike the mall, it wasn’t based on how much jade you sold.

Instead, it depended on your overall contribution to the company.

If you went a month without being late, leaving early, or taking leave, you’d find your salary mysteriously increased.

This extra amount was the company’s way of giving commission.

That, in detail, was Fang Shiyu’s commission system.

The news Li Ting had discussed the previous night had made a significant contribution to Fang Shiyu, so she had received a reward of ten thousand yuan.

Of course, Su Xuan had already indicated that this ten thousand yuan was just hush money, and the rewards for Li Ting in the future would certainly not stop there.

After all, it wasn’t just a trivial matter; it was a whole truckload!

Su Xuan quickly found Li Ting.

“I have a task for you, can you take it on?”

Su Xuan stood in front of Li Ting, speaking from a position of height due to his stature.

As he talked, Su Xuan’s gaze measured Li Ting’s full figure, which was so tempting that the clothes were clearly stretched tight.

It seemed almost impossible not to be stared at.

“What is it?” Li Ting asked.

Su Xuan averted his gaze, fearing he might not be able to resist touching her if he kept looking.

Otherwise, it would cross the line into indecency, and Su Xuan couldn’t bring himself to do that.

So for him, looking away was a better way to control the flames of desire already stirring within him.

“Do you remember our bet from last night?” Su Xuan asked, fixing his gaze on Li Ting as a charming smile crossed his lips.

Li Ting nodded.

“Last night, you said that every piece of stone you picked out contained jade, right?”

Li Ting smiled confidently, feeling excited just remembering the gamblings from the previous night.

In her view, the chances of her winning the bet were so high, she felt like declaring herself the Big Winner before the competition even started!

“Of course, any stone I took from the Gambling Stone Mall last night counts.

If even one doesn’t contain jade, I lose.

But if every single one does, then you lose.

I hope I’ve made myself clear enough!” Su Xuan stated earnestly, looking at the Li Ting in front of him.

Li Ting nodded.

“Certainly, you’ve made it quite clear.

How could I play dumb, or act like a fool?

The bet is on!”

Su Xuan gave an okay sign, looked at Li Ting, and said, “The task I’ve arranged for you is to oversee the cutting and acceptance process of this batch of jade stones.

You’ll be responsible for recording the process each day, and for the tally of the original jade obtained—it’s a fairly easy job.

Can you handle that?”

Su Xuan’s gaze evaluated Li Ting.

“Naturally.

This way, I can not only do my own work but also act as a supervisor, checking whether each stone you brought back from the Gambling Stone Mall conceals original jade!” Li Ting said with a captivating smile.

“Then it’s agreed!”

After arranging Li Ting’s work, Su Xuan left the ground floor of Fang Shiyu’s store to head for his own small room, which had unconsciously become a place he frequently stayed.

Remembering that he hadn’t been back to his rented apartment in a long time, nor seen Xu Lili, Su Xuan’s lips curved into a slightly wicked smile at the thought of Xu Lili’s craziness.

“Looks like I’ll need to visit the lady boss when I have time, or else I’ll be called a cold-hearted man again!”

“I, Su Xuan, may be cold-hearted, but that’s only towards my enemies.

When it comes to women, I will always be robust and spirited!”

Muttering to himself, Su Xuan shook his head to clear it and then, with a renewed focus, flipped open a book on the table…
