Four minutes into the night! Was there really no way to get a monthly ticket? His heart … was going to sink!
— — —
Everyone except Ling Yun changed their expressions when the Lord of Jade announced the price!
That was too much!
Any jewelry merchant or stone gambler could tell that the total value of these three carts of uncut jade wouldn't exceed thirty-five million yuan at the market price when they were first shipped in!
Moreover, this was a price that no one would pay attention to. They had been kept in Yu Ding Xuan for a long time, and very few people bought them. They were trash that no one cared about. They could be used to fool beginners, but those with experience wouldn't even bother to look at them.
In other words, these were all trash that couldn't be sold, just like the forgotten King of Stones.
It would be good enough if they could sell them at a loss. Not only did the Lord of Jade want to make a profit, but he also wanted to double the price? Wasn't he trying to rip people off?
Song Zhengyang was the first to get angry. He couldn't stop Ling Yun from buying three carts of trash, but he wouldn't allow the Lord of Jade to rip Ling Yun off. Even if Ling Yun made a mistake today, Song Zhengyang was still here!
"Lord of Jade, what do you mean? I won't even buy these three carts of trash. You picked them up for free even if they can be sold for ten million yuan. Yet, you're offering my friend six times the price and saying that you're doing this for my sake. Aren't you trying to slap my face? "
Song Zhengyang's face turned red as he stepped forward to question the Lord of Jade.
Murong Wenshi was also very displeased. He frowned and stared at the Lord of Jade. "Lord of Jade, aren't you being a little unfair by doing this?"
Murong Feixue might be angry at Ling Yun, but she was also worried about Ling Yun after seeing the ridiculous price. "Ling Yun, did you see that? They're taking advantage of you!" She stomped her feet and said to Ling Yun, "Ling Yun, do you see that? They're taking advantage of you!"
Murong Feixue was so anxious that she almost called Ling Yun an idiot.
Tang Meng simply sat on the ground. He was already trembling when he heard people talking about thirty million yuan. Now that he heard that sixty million yuan was enough to buy three truckloads of trash, his Heaven and Earth Group would have to close down if they really bought it. Ling Yun's actions were to continue!
This speed of squandering was definitely the best in the world!
"Big Brother Yun, can … can we not buy it? If you really like playing with stones, I can go up to Dragon Mountain and cut it open for you. There are all kinds of shapes … Nancui Peak is fine too!"
Tang Meng hugged Ling Yun's thigh and begged.
In this way, the surrounding merchants all laughed in their hearts, and some even mocked them.
"Is he stupid? Who asked him to act cool? Now he's asking for it. The Lord of Jade is asking for sixty million. What a slap to his face …"
"Yeah, he can throw away 30 million, but I don't believe he can throw away 60 million. It's a pile of trash, but the selling price is doubled. Let's see how he's going to deal with this!"
"Are you deaf? Didn't you hear President Song say that it was worth 10 million at most?! Moreover, it's only by selling it that there's a price. If no one buys it, it's just a pile of broken stones. It can't even be used to build a house … "
"Let him continue pretending. If he doesn't buy it today, he'll be acting like a coward … How dare he come to the Lord of Jade's territory and behave atrociously without asking around …"
"I don't think so. I think the Lord of Jade is afraid that he'll make a mistake and purposely set a high price. That way, even if there's a jade inside, he'll still make a profit … However, this price is indeed a little too high …"
The surrounding people were secretly delighted. They mocked Ling Yun continuously, waiting to see what he would do.
The two nouveau riches, Zhu Yongwang and Hou Yaozong, were so happy that they were about to jump up and down. Lord of Jade, you're really our grandfather. You've finally avenged us. Continue slapping Ling Yun's face!
Sixty million, you probably won't even be able to fork out ten million. Looks like we'll have to use the Maserati from the Murong Family as collateral.
When the time comes, we'll redeem it and give it to Murong Feixue. That'll be even better!
"Ling Yun, don't play like this if you can't afford it. You might not even be able to fork out ten million. Do you really think this is a market?"
Zhu Yongwang knew that Ling Yun wouldn't treat his venereal disease, so he decided to go against Ling Yun.
"Ling Yun, I'll say it again. If you don't want to embarrass yourself today, as long as you cure my gout, I'll pay for the three carts of raw stones no matter how much it costs. How about that?"
Hou Yaozong still had a glimmer of hope. He wanted to humiliate Ling Yun and get Ling Yun to treat him. It was killing two birds with one stone.
At the same time, these two nouveau riches' hearts were in their throats. They were afraid that if Ling Yun decided not to buy it and left, they wouldn't be able to watch anymore.
The Lord of Jade stared at Ling Yun's expression and said to Song Zhengyang at the same time, "Brother Song, as the saying goes, ask for the sky and pay the earth. I admit that you're right, but since we're gambling on stones, we have to be excited. No matter what, these stones are all raw jade stones, right? They weren't mined from Dragon Mountain, right? "
"Who knows if there's any jade inside? That's because I, Yu Shengjin, am an honest businessman. If I really wanted to play, I could just throw a few piles of trash into these newly purchased raw stones. Who would be able to tell? Aren't they all stones? "
"Moreover, look at the King of Stones in my shop … Wasn't it in good condition? Didn't they all say that there would be glass grade jade inside? What happened in the end? I've cut it, you've cut it, Elder Murong has cut it, Han Laosan has cut it … They all lost, right? Now, no one has cut it for fifty thousand yuan, right? "
"So, it's true that you're picking the leftover trash, but do you dare to say that there's no jade in these three carts? I'm afraid no one dares to make such a guarantee, right? "
"As long as there's value in gambling, I can offer this price. If your friend doesn't accept it, we can continue to negotiate. Isn't that how business is done?"
The Lord of Jade's voice was loud and reasonable. No one could find fault with his words, and Song Zhengyang was rendered speechless.
It was indeed a gamble. Even he, Song Zhengyang, who had been the banker for so many years, didn't dare say that there was no jade in any raw stone for sure!
"Clap clap clap …"
After listening to the Lord of Jade's speech, Ling Yun was the first to clap. He smiled and said, "Well said, Lord of Jade. Indeed, doing business is asking for a sky-high price and returning the price on the spot. However, can I bargain later?"
Bargain later? What did that mean?
Zhu Yongwang and Hou Yaozong panicked when they heard that. Was Ling Yun going to hide like a tortoise? So he didn't want to buy it? That would be boring …
The Lord of Jade and Third Brother Han were shocked. This Ling Yun wasn't a hothead, he was a master negotiator!
Negotiation was actually a competition of patience and steadiness. Whoever could keep calm would be able to wait. The party that couldn't wait would naturally lose.
They thought that Ling Yun would be anxious and say that he would not buy it. However, Ling Yun did not do that. Instead, he temporarily suspended the negotiations.
To be honest, this much raw stone waste was already a huge business. Did the Lord of Jade and Han Laosan want to sell it? Absolutely!
Song Zhengyang was right. Their bottom line was ten million yuan. That was the price that gave Song Zhengyang face!
Furthermore, it wasn't just Song Zhengyang. There was also Elder Murong. They wouldn't be losing out if they took away the two hundred pieces of trash for ten million yuan.
However, they were in the stone gambling business. What they were most afraid of was making a mistake. Ling Yun bought so much at one go. Who knew if he had seen through something?
Was there a hothead who could deal with Song Zhengyang and Elder Murong at the same time and be protected by them?
Therefore, the Lord of Jade offered sixty million yuan to see Ling Yun's reaction. It was similar to what Qiu Yongshou had done previously.
The Lord of Jade panicked a little when he saw that Ling Yun wanted to stop the negotiations. "Erm … Little Brother, do you mean that the price is too high and you don't want to buy it?"
Ling Yun's words shocked everyone! It was earth-shattering!
He smiled and pointed at the black boulder. "It's not that I don't want to buy it. I just want to buy the King of Stones and discuss the price with you!" he said arrogantly.
Before he could finish his sentence, everyone, except for Long Wu, was dumbfounded. They were completely petrified, and their mouths were so wide open that a piece of raw jade could be stuffed in!
He wanted to buy the King of Stones? That piece of trash that everyone thought was trash? Moreover, the trash of the trash, the King of Stones that had been forgotten for a long time?
Many merchants dug their ears, afraid that they had heard wrongly.
"What? Did I hear wrongly just now? He wants to buy the King of Stones? "
"A newborn calf isn't afraid of a tiger. He even dares to bet on this …"
"This person is hopeless. So many people couldn't get any green from it. Does he think he can?"
"He's courting death …"
The Lord of Jade and Han Laosan were completely stunned! It wasn't as if they hadn't heard from Yu Ding Xuan's shop assistant that Ling Yun wanted to buy the King of Stones.
However, many people would say the same thing after hearing the story of the King of the Stones. Therefore, the two of them didn't take it seriously. However, they didn't expect Ling Yun to be serious.
"Little Brother, y-you really want to buy it? You're not joking? "
The Lord of Jade asked hurriedly after recovering from his shock.
"That's right, I'm buying it for fun. Where else can I find such a big stone? It's cool to sit on it in the summer …" Ling Yun nodded with a smile.
He said it casually.
"Now, I want to buy these three carts of raw stones and the King of Stones. You can give me a price now …" Ling Yun continued.
Song Zhengyang, Murong Wenshi, and Murong Feixue were so anxious that they almost dragged Ling Yun away.
Tang Meng was so anxious that he jumped up from the ground again. He kept giving Tie Xiaohu a look, which meant that the two of them should work together to quickly pull Lingyun away.
Only Long Wu was still giggling and holding onto Ling Yun's arm. She didn't seem to care at all. (To be continued.)
