Cheat: Only children make choices! I want them all

Soon, the jade was completely revealed under the polishing of the stone cutter Lao Xie.

Only then did Old Xie finally let out a breath, stood up and slowly stepped aside, wiping the sweat from his forehead.

He was incredibly nervous about opening this stone. Even the slightest scratch or wear on jadeite of this quality would mean tens or even hundreds of millions in losses! He only made a mere 10,000 or 20,000 yuan a month, and if someone damaged it, he wouldn't be able to afford the compensation! While there were generally waivers of liability for stone opening, a poor job would result in dismissal and blacklisting, effectively costing him his job. He was already over 40, and finding a job like this was difficult; few would hire him.

Fortunately, in the end, according to Ye Lingtian's requirements and based on the lines drawn on the original stone, he perfectly opened out this glass-type imperial green jadeite. Now everyone is happy!

After opening such a piece of jade, his reputation in the industry will surely soar. Many people will come to him to open stones, and their store will also become famous. After all, the stones are sold in their store, and this store will be regarded as a good store. At that time, there will surely be a constant stream of people coming here to buy stones, and they will all want to try their luck!

When the business picks up, the boss will naturally give these old subordinates a raise. He also has some shares in the store, so he can get some dividends when the time comes...

"Little brother! Look, it has been cut out according to your requirements. There is absolutely no damage, and no extra scraps have been cut off..." Old Xie turned his head at this time and cast his gaze at Ye Lingtian. With a congratulatory smile on his face, he pointed at the jadeite next to the stone cutter and spoke.

At this time, everyone's attention was once again focused on the jadeite. From time to time, they turned to look at Ye Lingtian, and the envy in their eyes was hard to conceal.

They were truly envious! How could someone be so lucky? They could just dig up a random stone and find an Imperial Green Glass Jadeite! The water content and texture were so perfect! If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they would have thought it was a dream...

"Great! This jade is amazing! I, Fujiu Jewelry, will buy it for 80 million. I wonder if you are willing to buy it, little brother?" Zhao Ping'an also quickly stood up at this time, with an expression that was difficult to conceal excitement.

He had just carefully examined it. It was definitely a natural jadeite, and it was the rarest glass-type imperial green! The texture and water content were both top-notch! Each gram of it could be worth tens of thousands!

Judging by the size of this jadeite, it's almost as big as a bowling ball! It must weigh around seven or eight kilograms. If he could get it, he'd be making a killing!

The price he offered was only average in the industry, but he'd just heard from the people around him that Ye Lingtian was a newbie and probably didn't know much about the market, so he figured he could get a bargain from him. He figured the company would see how capable he was and give him a promotion and a raise! And then there was the commission from the imperial jadeite. Just thinking about it made Zhao Ping'an excited...

Unfortunately, because he was too excited, he overlooked someone! And this person probably wouldn't let him get what he wanted...

"Eighty million? You want to spend 8000 million to buy such a large piece of glass-type imperial green? Hahaha! Zhao Ping'an, I think you should go home and take a shower! I think you will find what you want in your dreams!"

Sure enough, just when Zhao Ping'an felt that he had won, a sarcastic voice came, and instantly poured a bucket of cold water on his head.

"Damn! I forgot this bitch is here too!" Zhao Ping'an's eyes twitched, and the joy on his face quickly faded, turning into a somewhat ugly look.

"Zhao Ping'an, you can be a fool if you want, but don't treat Mr. Xiao Ye as a fool too, okay? Pure glass-type imperial green jadeite of this quality is worth no less than 20,000 per gram! And that's before it's processed! If it's processed, the price can at least double! Look at the size of this jadeite, it must be at least seven or eight kilograms, and its value is at least around 150 million! You only bid 80 million, haha! You really treat me like a pig!" After saying that, Zhou Qian glanced at Zhao Ping'an with disdain, then looked away, turned her gaze to Ye Lingtian, and said with a smile: "Mr. Xiao Ye, we at Dasheng Jewelry are willing to bid 160 million for this jadeite. We want to make friends with you. What do you think?"

That's a much better way to put it. Make friends! Look at how she handles things, it's really admirable! No wonder a woman, and at such a young age, can take the position of general manager of the Yun District of Dasheng Jewelry.

Honestly, the 160 million price tag was beyond Ye Lingtian's expectations! He'd originally thought 100 million would be the limit, but he hadn't expected the other party to offer an extra 60 million! That was truly a significant sum! 60 million in pure cash—that kind of wealth was already more than 99% of the people in China! Ye Lingtian had truly become a millionaire overnight!

"Okay! Deal!" Ye Lingtian no longer hesitated. He was short of money now. With these 600 million, he would be able to completely get rid of poverty.

"Haha! Mr. Xiao Ye, it's a pleasure to work with you..." Zhou Qian stretched out a jade hand, as if she wanted to shake hands with Ye Lingtian.

Seeing this, Ye Lingtian smiled, stretched out his hand and shook hands with the other party, saying, "It's a pleasure to work with you..."

Faced with Zhou Qian's interference, Zhao Ping'an was very unhappy, but he could do nothing about it.

Fuliu Jewelry and Dasheng Jewelry are competitors. As the saying goes, competitors are enemies. They often steal orders from each other, and he has long been accustomed to it.

But this time, Zhao Pingan was really unwilling to accept it. This was a huge business worth hundreds of millions! He just lost it like that.

If the higher-ups find out, I'm afraid I'll be scolded again...

But he had no choice. He was just a regional manager, and his power was not as great as that of Zhou Qian, the regional general manager. The funds he could mobilize were limited, and he was no match for the other party. The other party's boss had come out to fight him, so there was no chance he could win...

"Alas..." Zhao Ping'an sighed helplessly, hunched over and silently left. Now that the situation was settled, there was no point in him staying here. It was all his fault for being too greedy. If he had offered a higher price earlier, perhaps Ye Lingtian would have sold it to him since he had come first? But what was the point in thinking about this now? He no longer had any chance...

Seeing Zhao Ping'an leave, Zhou Qian and Ye Lingtian didn't react much.

The other party is not a big boss, and there is no major conflict between them. It is just a normal business competition.

Zhao Ping'an was able to become the manager of the Fuliu Jewelry Division. As a smart man, he naturally wouldn't get angry and seek revenge on Ye Lingtian. That would be childish. At their level, they basically put their own interests first and wouldn't offend others easily...

Ye Lingtian was now considered a wealthy man. If he didn't open his eyes, and the company tried to curry favor with a potential client like Ye Lingtian, he would most likely be fired. So he'd better just give in now...
