Chapter 170: Can I See It?
“But Dad, our costs are too high. We can’t buy everything she has her eyes on, can we?”
Samuel shook his head, teaching his daughter attentively, “With the wealth of the Vanderbilt family, it’s easy for them to help Claire start up a jewelry company, but if we cut off Claire’s source of supply, even though the Vanderbilt family is rich, they can’t help her without a source of supply, and even if the company is started, it’s hard to thrive.”
Kira smiled knowingly, “I see, you mean we ruin her plan before it’s even implemented!”
Samuel smiled in satisfaction.
Paula, who had been silent the whole time, looked over at Claire.
Was Claire even better than her mother or was she just an empty vase?
She was looking forward to the results.
Kira took away three more raw gemstones from Claire, who said nothing and had no expression on her face.
Issac walked into the VIP lounge on the second floor and respectfully said to Joseph, “Sir, Claire hasn’t bought a single piece of raw gemstone right now, Kira always is one step ahead of her.”
Joseph’s mood had been heavy since he met Claire and heard her words.
“Paula must have done it on purpose so that Claire could gain my trust!”

Issac raised his hand and touched his nose, carefully saying, “Sir, but Claire and Kira seem to be on bad terms. Perhaps what Claire said is true?”
Whether it was true or not, Joseph wouldn’t trust anyone so easily anymore.
All his life, he had been living in Master Summers‘ deception, that old man was scheming and shrewd, he would be really stupid if he believed anyone so easily again!
“Issac, you said there was a new jewelry company registered in Ascalon?”
“Well, yes.” Issac nodded, “The company’s address is inside the Vanderbilt Group, although the company’s legal person is not Claire nor Sean but someone named Julia, it must have something to do with the two of them.””
Joseph wasn’t afraid of anything else right now but that the Summers family
and the Vanderbilt family might join forces, if they did, it would be bad
news for him.
“We need to get the mine. Issac, when is the appointment with Mr. Moore?”
Issac looked at the time, “There’s still half an hour left, Mr. Moore said that even if you’re now the titan of the jewelry business in the country, you have to get the best stone here today before he will talk business with
you.”
Joseph glanced at a piece of raw stone placed on the sofa and spoke with confidence, The best stone is already here, those for sale now…”
He sneered, “Are just a bunch of craps!”
Half an hour later, Dan Moore showed up in the lounge right on time.

He was a middle–aged man in his fifties, he wasn’t tall, with a beer belly.
Seeing Joseph sitting on the sofa, he didn’t show the slightest bit of a fawning smile but strode over.
“Mr. Felix, your man told me that you have bought today’s best stone, can I
see it?”
There was a bit of arrogance in his manner, but Joseph didn’t take offense.
Anyone who could do great things is arrogant.
Joseph raised his hand and pointed to the raw stone in the cart by the couch, “This is today’s best stone.“”
Dan looked over, usually, before a stone was not cut, few people could be sure what exactly was inside. Moreover, Dan was just a businessman instead of a connoisseur of this kind of technical thing.
“Mr. Felix, you’re not kidding me, are you? This raw stone hasn’t even been cut yet, and you’re so confident it’s the best stone here today?”
“Of course!”
Joseph leaned against the sofa with a confident smile, “I sent my men abroad to get it, the mine is rich in producing emeralds. It won’t be wrong.”
Joseph’s move was a bit speculative, but the means didn’t matter; businessmen only cared about the results.
“So, you seem really confident today, Mr. Felix.”
Joseph laughed out, bending over to open the bottle of wine that was placed on the coffee table, turning over two clean wine glasses, and after pouring

wine into them, he raised one of them, “Mr. Moore, I wish us a happy
cooperation.”
Dan laughed out loud, he raised the other glass and clinked it with Joseph’s before saying with a wink, “Mr. Felix, I will have to wait for the final result. We can save that later after no one in the venue had anything more valuable than this.”
Joseph sneered and smiled. More valuable?
Impossible!
This was a superb piece with a market value of hundreds of millions of dollars, unless someone could get a rare crystal, he was sure to win.
But the possibility was almost infinitesimal, and he simply didn’t believe that the very best of those very best would appear in the venue today!
On the first floor, the Jade Chamber of Commerce was nearing the end yet Claire hadn’t bought anything.
This made Julia anxious, “Claire, we should at least buy something. We can’t come for nothing, can we?”
“Nothing?”
Jon raised his little head and pointed at Zayn, “Zayn has bought a lot. Although he’s not great, we can trust that he won’t do losing deals.”
Julia certainly knew Zayn was good.
Although he was only twenty–five years old, fairly young among the appraisers, he was calm and sharp-eyed, he wouldn’t buy anything unless he was sure there was valuable gemstone inside.

was sure there was valuable gemstone inside.
Therefore, he wouldn’t do losing deals. But at the same time, it was hard for him to hit the jackpot.
But wanting to make a big bet with a small amount of money, going out on a limb and getting rich overnight is no longer relevant to him.
That was what Jon meant when he said Zayn wasn’t great.
Julia snorted and raised her hand to pinch Jon’s cheek, “Zayn will be pissed if he heard you!”
Jon slapped Julia’s hand away in disgust, and his chubby little hand kept rubbing his face where Julia had pinched him.
“Jon,” Julia asked him with a grin, “Since Zayn isn’t great, who do you think is great?”
Jon grunted and raised his little head proudly, “Of course, my Mommy!”
Julia shook her head with a smile.
“Hey, Mommy…”
Suddenly, Belle said in a sweet voice.
