Richest Man: Divine-Grade Reconstruct System
Chapter 120: Hurry Up and Move!

Chapter 120: Chapter 120: Hurry Up and Move!

Once the staff had left, Zhuang Yan was utterly speechless. This diamond was even bigger than he had anticipated.

He had estimated the diamond to weigh around 130 carats, but the result just given was a solid 150 carats, not a bit more, not a bit less!

This precise outcome gave Zhuang Yan a small surprise.

Honestly, he had never encountered such a perfectly precise diamond before.

However, Lin Yi wasn’t surprised by this result at all. Since the system said it was 150 carats, it naturally couldn’t be any other number.

"Brother, are you really going to sell this?"

With a slightly puzzled look, Zhuang Yan looked at Lin Yi. This thing is really too valuable, almost like the Imperial Qian Longjing tea, something that’s almost priceless.

The professionals who came earlier for the evaluation also provided a suitable market valuation, 310 million!

Of course, this was because Zhuang Yan directly requested the true price. If someone else were selling, Xuanrui Studio would at most offer about 260 million.

The reason Zhuang Yan asked was that generally, anyone looking to sell such a diamond would first consider an auction house.

After all, when you meet someone who truly loves it, they might offer an extraordinarily high price. And even if Zhuang Yan offered the highest price, it would be 310 million.

Zhuang Yan is, after all, a businessman, always considering profits first in everything he does.

Even though he had a good private relationship with Lin Yi, when faced with hundreds of millions in money, that was still insignificant.

It’s like when Zhuang Yan first met Lin Yi; indeed, he had helped Lin Yi a lot, but let’s not forget, he made more money off Lin Yi.

Like the first time he bought a Yuan Dynasty blue-and-white porcelain from Lin Yi for five million and flipped it for over 700,000 profit.

It’s like what Zhuang Yan said to Lin Yi at the beginning: In the world of adults, it’s full of deceit and betrayal. There’s no room for naive kindness.

After all, when it comes to profits, even your best brother might stab you in the back. It’s quite common.

"Hey, of course. It’s up to you, brother, if you want it. If you do, it’s yours."

Honestly, not only was Zhuang Yan shocked, but Lin Yi was even more shocked. In his mind, this item, which cost less than 10,000 to produce, would be great if it were worth several tens of millions. Who would have thought it would be given a sky-high price of 310 million?

With this, he didn’t have to worry about his startup capital anymore.

Watching a deal over 300 million being made in just a few words, Chen Sheng nearby thought to himself, maybe he’s just a fake rich guy.

Other people close the deal for my annual profit in just a few words?

And Chairman Zhuang is truly amazing. Although he himself is worth tens of billions, it’s all in fixed assets. He couldn’t take out three billion in cash all at once.

This also made him fully realize there’s still a big gap between himself and Zhuang Yan.

Once Lin Yi and Zhuang Yan completed their transaction, Chen Sheng hastily asked Lin Yi for his bank account to pay for the two boxes of tea.

He originally thought tea for several million per ounce was extravagant, but after seeing Lin Yi randomly bring in over 300 million, his hundreds of thousands seemed like pocket money.

Seeing Lin Yi so calm and composed during the transaction, even somewhat uninterested, Chen Sheng mentally elevated Lin Yi to Zhuang Yan’s level.

They’re both more exciting figures than me!

Because of this, Chen Sheng’s attitude towards Lin Yi experienced a subtle change.

Come noon, unable to refuse Zhuang Yan’s invitation, the group had a meal together.

However, since he had to drive, Lin Yi didn’t drink any alcohol.

In the afternoon, he took Xiao Zihan to purchase some university essentials, such as a laptop and other digital products.

After dinner, Lin Yi reluctantly sent Xiao Zihan home.

On the way back, he held the steering wheel with one hand and placed the other out the window, clawed, feeling the gentle breeze, and couldn’t help but sigh:

"Even with the max speed, it’s still not as vast as our Han Han."

Over here, as Lin Yi was clawing at the air, on Xiao Zihan’s side, she was blushing like an apple as she walked into her small courtyard and quickly lowered her head even further when she saw her grandma washing vegetables by the well.

She mumbled to herself in a voice only she could hear:

"Bad guy, big bad guy, always picking on me..."

When Lin Yi’s Range Rover arrived at the community gate, he was stunned, not because of the huge crowd at the entrance.

After all, he’d become accustomed to such scenes. What truly shocked Lin Yi was the massive banner above the community gate reading: ’Congratulations to our community classmate Lin Yi for a perfect score in the college entrance examination!’

This was the most prominent one. On the walls on both sides, there were smaller banners:

’Excel at everything, first in exams! Congratulations from the XX Community Committee on Lin Yi’s acceptance into Tsinghua!’

’A land of talent and fortune, the XX Community Sales Office congratulates our community classmate Lin Yi for achieving the top national exam score!’

...

Banners like this were hanging everywhere possible.

Besides those hung by the community, there were also some put up by surrounding businesses.

And although these businesses’ banner contents were different, they all conveyed the same meaning: ’See, the feng shui here is great. Even the top national exam scorer came from here. What are you waiting for? Grateful you’re here...’

Moreover, unlike before, there were now some real media interview vans at the entrance, while the online celebrities were blocked ten meters away by guards temporarily assigned by the community.

Lin Yi had imagined his results might cause a stir online, but he hadn’t expected such a reception.

And it wasn’t just a one or two-day phenomenon.

This situation severely impacted Lin Yi’s normal life.

A week later, driving out of the community gate, taking in the spectacle outside, Lin Yi said helplessly to his mom in the back:

"See, we really can’t live here anymore. If this continues, it won’t just affect us; even our neighbors will feel the impact. I think we should hurry up and move..."
