"Alas, this spendthrift."
While others select jade raw stones with utmost caution, this young man, on the other hand, simply grabbed a stone without even a glance. If his parents were to find out about this, they might just beat him to death.
"This gentleman truly has remarkable audacity." Just as Bidegla was choosing the stones, suddenly, a voice rang out not far away. It was a young man smiling as he walked toward the two of them.
"Do you have a matter to attend to?" Bidegla's face remained calm, but his heart was moved as he felt Jennie Laura subconsciously lean toward him when the young man approached.
"No, I just wanted to make friends with you." Cyril Hanni's face was full of smiles, showing no signs of ill will.
"Damn it." Bidegla cursed in his heart, wishing to slap him. Yesterday, someone was sent to kill him, and now this person was pretending to be nice.
"Since there's no issue, please don't interfere with me. I'm busy." Bidegla's words shut down Cyril Hanni, making his face turn red with anger.
"I see that you have a keen eye, buying some excellent quality raw stones. Let me introduce myself, I am the manager of this jewelry store, my name is Cyril Hanni." Although angered by Bidegla's words, Cyril Hanni still maintained a carefree demeanor and even handed out a business card.
"Are you Cyril Hanni?" Seeing Cyril Hanni's business card, Bidegla did not accept it, just looking at him with a very strange look.
Yesterday, he was ambushed, and one of the assailants was his subordinate. So, how could he believe that this person now wanted to make friends with him?
This is probably a case of a wolf paying a New Year's call to a chicken, with no good intentions.
"Yes, I am Cyril Hanni." Upon hearing Bidegla's words, Cyril Hanni's eyes flashed, sneering in his heart. But before he could think it through, he heard Bidegla speak again.
"Sorry, I'm not interested." With that, Bidegla took Jennie Laura and walked away, not even giving Cyril Hanni a second glance.
"Just wanted to make a new friend."
"In that case, how about giving us a discount now, what do you say?"
"Great, you really are a good person." Before Cyril Hanni could respond, Bidegla suddenly raised his voice and shouted, "Everyone present, bear witness, Master Cyril Hanni said he will give me an eight percent discount on the jade raw stones I am purchasing today." Bidegla smiled and said, making Cyril Hanni's face slightly change, cursing Bidegla for his shamelessness.
This tale has been pilfered from Royal Road. If found on Amazon, kindly file a report.
When did he ever say such a thing?
But since he had already spoken, he couldn't take it back, and seeing Bidegla looking poor, he knew the other party couldn't come up with much money.
So, he didn't mind a little loss.
"If you really have such an interest, I am happy to oblige." Cyril Hanni said with a forced smile.
"Thank you." Bidegla laughed and turned to choose the jade raw stones.
"Laura, you look even more beautiful after all these months." After Bidegla left, Cyril Hanni's gaze fell on Jennie Laura .
Jennie Laura , the woman he was determined to win over, and also the springboard for him to embark on the Laura ship. Therefore, his face was all smiles, showing extreme gentlemanly behavior.
"Hehe, Master Cyril Hanni." Jennie Laura forced a smile on her face, but she felt extreme disgust for him in her heart.
This person, let alone the fact that he injured Bidegla yesterday, just his deplorable behavior is enough to make her disgusted. Not only is this person involved with the underworld, but he is also debauched, and who knows how many innocent young women have fallen victim to his depravity. So, unless she's concerned about her own reputation, she can't be bothered to deal with such a person.
"I wonder if ypu father's health is alright now? It's been quite a while since I visited him, I'm feeling a bit guilty," Cyril Hanni said, appearing somewhat reproachful of himself.
"Don't worry, he's just fine," Jennie Laura said, rolling her eyes.
"That's good," Cyril Hanni nodded, then continued, "By the way, that boy and...".
Before he could finish his sentence, they were distracted by a commotion nearby.
"Young man, it seems you have too much money to spend, this stone was appraised by a master before, and it was proven to contain no jade. Buying it would be a definite loss," an old man wearing reading glasses, looking like an expert, spoke up.
However, upon hearing his words, Bidegla was unmoved, because this seemingly worthless stone actually contained a large, fist-sized piece of green jade.
This jade was of extremely high transparency, though it did not reach the level of glass jade, it could be considered one of the most precious types of icy jade.
But even so, the value of this rough stone far exceeded the selling price of the stone material.
The stone material was priced at two million, but if the jade inside was removed, it would be worth at least tens of millions, or even more. This was a deal where one would definitely make a profit.
"Waiter, have this stone wrapped up for me," Bidegla said with confidence.
"Brother, you're really making a bold move," the annoying Cyril Hanni said as he walked over with Jennie Laura .
Many people had seen this stone and even self-proclaimed masters had examined it, but none of them were willing to buy it, because the stone was just too ordinary, without a hint of green, just like a pebble in a river.
Now, seeing that Bidegla wanted to buy this stone, he cursed him in his heart and also felt a bit angry.
This stone definitely couldn't yield anything, and his anger stemmed from Bidegla's earlier words. A stone worth two million, with a discount, he would immediately lose forty thousand. But thinking about Bidegla directly losing one hundred and sixty thousand, he suddenly felt a bit relieved. There will always be someone who has it worse than himself.
