“Young man, I’ve contacted our boss, and he’s very interested in this stone. He’ll be here in a few minutes, so why not wait and talk to him in person?”
The stone-cutter put down his phone and said to Tang Feng courteously.
Tang Feng wasn’t surprised at all and agreed immediately.
However, Song Lele, who was standing aside, pulled Tang Feng aside upon hearing this.
“Boss, I have friends who also need this kind of top-quality jadeite raw stone. Can you sell it to me?”
She then hurriedly added, “Don’t worry, you won’t be at a loss.”
“As you heard them say just now, selling the stone to Wan Shi Pavilion would fetch at most around nine and a half million. I can make the decision and buy this raw stone from you for ten million. How’s that?”
Tang Feng looked at her with some surprise.
With the help of the All-Seeing Scanning System, he’d long known that Song Lele was a wealthy woman.
The circle of wealthy women would certainly consist of people with money.
Therefore, Tang Feng found it quite reasonable for Song Lele to want to acquire this jadeite raw stone for someone else.
“Wow, that’s quite an offer. When will your friend come to make the transaction with me?”
Song Lele, hearing Tang Feng’s prompt agreement, immediately brightened up with a smile, “She might be rather busy.”
“How about this? I’ll get her to transfer the money first, and I’ll just take the imperial-green jadeite over to her.”
Tang Feng nodded noncommittally and then Song Lele requested his bank details, and without another word, she found a quiet place to make the call.
Meanwhile, while Song Lele was on the phone, the boss of Wan Shi Pavilion also arrived belatedly.
“Hello, sir, I am Qian Yue, the boss of Wan Shi Pavilion. May I ask your esteemed surname?”
The boss was a middle-aged man who looked very capable, dressed in a proper suit and with a very polite and amiable attitude towards people, giving others a favorable impression at first sight.
“No need for formalities, my surname is Tang. Pleased to meet you, Boss Qian.”
Tang Feng shook hands with him courteously.
“So, you are Mr. Tang. It’s a pleasure. I’ve had a quick look at the stone you brought just now, and Wan Shi Pavilion is willing to pay 9.1 million to acquire it. How do you feel about this proposal?”
Qian Yue went straight to the point, clearly a man who handled things efficiently, getting right to the heart of the matter.
“Apologies, Boss Qian, but I happen to have a friend who needs this stone, and I’ve already agreed to sell it to them. I’m sorry for making you come all this way for nothing.”
Tang Feng apologized with a smile.
Qian Yue’s smile stiffened momentarily, but he quickly returned to normal.
“It seems I’m one step too late. That’s regrettable.”
Someone who could run Wan Shi Pavilion was naturally not a simple person.
Qian Yue’s gaze measured Tang Feng from head to toe with a hint of surprise.
Before coming, he had thought the person who had bet on the imperial-green was just a lucky dog.
But who knew upon seeing him in person—wow, good heavens—in such a short time having a “friend” seal the deal for the raw stone, even offering a higher price than his pavilion’s bid?
A friend who can shell out over nine million in one go to buy a piece of jadeite raw stone?
This young man looked plain in appearance but seemed to have a significant background.
With this in mind, Qian Yue naturally decided to make an effort to get acquainted. He simply spoke up directly,
“Regardless, business is business, but trust remains. Here’s my business card, Mr. Tang. If you want to come here again, just contact me anytime.”
“Next time, I, as your host, will definitely take good care of you.”
Tang Feng also smiled, “Then I thank you for your kind intention, Boss Qian.”
Upon seeing Tang Feng accept the business card, the smile on Qian Yue’s face intensified.
He then called over a few security staff from Wan Shi Pavilion, in charge of protecting Tang Feng and the jadeite raw stone he held, treating him with utmost politeness.
“Damn, what’s with this kid? Even Elder Qian is being so polite to him.”
“With Elder Qian’s status, for a piece of imperial green worth just over nine million, surely that’s too much?”
“What do you mean by ‘too much’? I reckon this young man is obviously rich or noble. Elder Qian might have known him for a long time.”
…
The onlookers buzzed with speculation.
Tang Feng took the opportunity to sell the other two pieces of jadeite of average quality, which he had gambled out earlier, to Wan Shi Pavilion at market price.
However, when Qian Yue heard that it was Tang Feng’s first time gambling on stones, and he had bought three stones and sold all three, he was shocked and speechless for a while.
Such luck was incredible!
After checking the remaining two raw stones, Qian Yue also smiled and said to Tang Feng,
“Mr. Tang, I’ve transferred 1.2 million to you. Check your account.”
Tang Feng picked up his phone. The 1.2 million was already in his account.
At the same time, another text message arrived.
A whopping ten million had been deposited!
Qian Yue glanced sideways at Tang Feng’s phone and was immediately startled once more.
Good heavens, this ten million. Could it be the payment for the imperial-green raw stone?
This is exorbitantly overpriced; there’s hardly any profit left!
It must be a friend-to-friend purchase, otherwise, such a high price couldn’t be justified.
Qian Yue pondered this for a moment, his curiosity about Tang Feng and his friend’s background growing stronger.
Tang Feng, however, didn’t notice Qian Yue’s gaze.
While checking his phone messages, he found several unread messages from “Qin Yanan.”
