Chapter 316 Top-Grade White Jade
"What do you mean I'm sure or not?" If Chen Wei honestly admitted the result, Lu Dong wouldn't say anything.

Seeing that he still doubted his appraisal skills, Lu Dong felt a surge of anger, as if a mouthful of rage was about to burst out of his chest.

"Are you questioning my appraisal skills?" Lu Dong questioned.

“I suggest you put on your glasses and take another look.” This was the only thing Chen Wei insisted on.

"What do you mean by wearing glasses or not? What does it have to do with wearing glasses? I can see it clearly, it's fake jade." As Lu Dong spoke, he didn't forget to curse, "These fake jade dealers nowadays are really overestimating themselves, daring to make any kind of jade, do they really think people are blind!"

"Since you've put it that way, then I can only suspect? No, I must say that your appraisal skills in this area are lacking and you're not up to the task," Chen Wei said.

"You brat, you really dare to say anything. I've been in this business for decades, everyone knows my reputation. How dare you, an ignorant junior, doubt me?" Lu Dong barely managed to hold back his curses. After all, he was getting on in years and should at least watch his words.

"If I'm not mistaken, you two should be the fake jade dealers who made these two pairs of jade bracelets, right?" Lu Dong chuckled. "You really underestimate me by choosing me as your test subject."

"Let's go, let's go." He waved his hand impatiently, urging, "Don't get in the way!"

"To be honest, I just took these jade bracelets out of the coffin. I really don't believe you when you say they're fake jade," Chen Wei said, carefully crafting his words.

"What coffin nonsense? I don't want to hear your fabricated stories. I can guarantee with my decades of experience that this jade is fake!" Lu Dong refused to change his mind no matter what.

Boom boom boom!
Just as Chen Wei was about to speak, there was a knock on the door.

Several people pushed the door open and walked in. The one in the lead asked, "Old Lu, what happened here?"

A passing waiter heard the argument and went to inform them.

"Oh! Old Li, you've come at the right time. This kid tried to fool me with a fake jade. I exposed him, but he's still making up stories for me. You'd better deal with him."

Li Laigeng could tell that Lu Dong was in a bad mood today. Just as he was about to agree, his gaze fell on Chen Wei.

Isn't that the big star?!
Li Laigeng's eyes widened in surprise.

Recently, news about Chen Wei has been everywhere. Li Laigeng even accompanied his granddaughter to see the new movie he directed yesterday.

Li Laigeng's granddaughter is also a member of Chen Wei's fan club. She is only a teenager and is a huge fan.

Li Laigeng originally disapproved of his granddaughter's idol worship, but after her explanation and the evidence of her work, he suddenly realized that these so-called big stars were not as bad as he had imagined.

After that, he stopped interfering and would occasionally listen to Chen Wei's new songs with his granddaughter.

Such a big star wouldn't have any reason to try to fool people with fake jade, right?

Li Laigeng thought to himself that there might be some misunderstanding here.

"Old Li!" Su Qingyue spoke up at this moment.

"President Su!" Upon hearing this, Li Laigeng looked over and checked several times to make sure he wasn't mistaken; this person was definitely Su Qingyue.

The most famous female tycoon in Jiangcheng!

If he had only suspected something before, Li Laigeng is now 100% certain that there is definitely something wrong here.

Which jade dealer would dare sell her fake jade? They'd be asking for trouble!
"President Su? Old Li? What, you know each other?" Lu Dong also vaguely sensed that things might not be going well.

“Mr. Su Qingyue, the richest woman in Jiangcheng, Lao Lu, don’t tell me you don’t know her.” Li Laigeng asked Lu Dong.

Jiangcheng's richest woman... Su Qingyue!

Upon hearing Li Laigeng's words, Lu Dong immediately understood.

How many people in Jiangcheng and Daxia can be called "President Su"? He really can't afford to offend this person.

"Um, I'm sorry, Mr. Su, I've run into some troubles today, so I'm in a bad mood. I apologize for any offense I may have caused." Lu Dong's attitude changed drastically, no longer as domineering and dismissive as before.

“However, this jade is definitely fake, I’m absolutely certain of it,” Lu Dong insisted.

"Let me see it." This wasn't the first time Lu Dong had mistaken a genuine item for a fake, so to be on the safe side, Li Laigeng decided to take a look himself first.

He happens to be an expert in jade.

"Okay, okay, see?" Lu Dong was a little unhappy. Why didn't anyone believe him?

Li Laigeng put on his glasses, and the more he looked, the more uneasy he became. "This, this is top-grade white jade. It became extinct thirty years ago."

The extinction he refers to here does not mean that the species does not exist, but rather that it has not been mined.

"Top-grade white jade, Lao Li, you're not kidding, are you?" Lu Dong suspected that Li Laigeng was saying nice things on purpose to save face for Su Qingyue.

“How could that be…” So, Li Laigeng presented what he believed to be the evidence that the two pairs of jade bracelets were genuine.

"..." Upon hearing this, Lu Dong fell silent.

"And most importantly, this jade is an antique, with a polishing technique completely different from today's, and it has a history of at least several hundred years."

Lu Dong remembered that Chen Wei had mentioned before that he had taken the jade from the coffin.

Could it be... an ancient tomb?
Thinking back on his previous words, Lu Dong suddenly felt a burning sensation on his cheeks, as if he had lost face.

No wonder Chen Wei was so confident, even reminding himself to put on his glasses before looking at the screen.

“Since it’s genuine, I plan to sell this jade. I’d appreciate it if you could appraise it, Mr. Li,” Chen Wei said, going along with the flow.

That can be considered not forgetting one's original intentions.

“At least this number.” Li Laigeng held up five fingers.

"Fifty million?" Chen Wei asked tentatively.

"Five hundred million!" Li Laigeng announced the correct answer.

"This top-quality white jade is rare and extremely precious, let alone ancient jade that has been preserved for hundreds of years. Its value is self-evident." If he weren't short of money, Li Laigeng would really like to take this pair of jade bracelets into his possession and take them out to look at and play with them whenever he has free time.

"Alright, then I'll trouble Elder Li to help prepare for the auction."

“No problem, let me see. The most recent auction is at 4:30, and there are quite a few celebrities in attendance. If nothing unexpected happens, it should fetch an even higher price.” Li Laigeng nodded in agreement.

"That would be best, of course." Chen Wei didn't mind having too much money.

He takes whatever amount there is.

After everyone left.

"Cough cough cough!" Hearing the coughing, Lu Dong realized, "Manager, you're here too!"

"Old Lu, there are some things I don't need to say, you should understand. This job is no longer suitable for you. Pack your things, go back and get some rest, and enjoy your retirement."
