After sitting down, the nanny changed the tea.
Su Ming said, "I'm not being polite with you. I'll tell you directly."
Li Qiuping smiled and said, "Please go ahead. This isn't the first time we've dealt with each other."
Su Ming glanced at Li He before continuing, "Did you receive a jade ring the day before yesterday?"
"That's right." Li Qiuping did not deny it. "This is something I picked up in Panjiayuan. It's a scarlet green jade carved by Qianlong Emperor. It's good stuff and I took a liking to it at first glance."
Su Ming did not expect Li Qiuping to be so honest. He continued to smile and said, "This jade ring was lost by my uncle. Please give it to me, Boss Li. However, I'll redeem it no matter how much it costs."
"Lost? The person who sold it to me didn't say that. " Li Qiuping took a sip of tea and asked in a disdainful tone, "Boss Su, are you looking down on me? Do I need the money of a jade ring? "
"You mean you're giving it to me?" Su Ming pretended not to understand.
Li Qiuping said, "Back then, we both liked this business at the same time. You're rich and I didn't fight for anything that you liked. Life depends on one's own ability. There's nothing to say. Besides, Boss Su didn't intend to give in to me at all. As for now … "
He deliberately paused here. His meaning was obvious. 'You didn't give in to me back then, so why should I give in to you now?'
Li He lit a cigarette.
The crisp sound of the lighter attracted everyone's attention.
After the smoke ring dissipated, Li He said leisurely, "I think that a person's success has a lot to do with whether he knows how to make choices."
Su Ming introduced him at the right time, "This is my boss. He's the same as you, Boss Li. His surname is Li. If you really have a lot of friends, it's impossible for you not to know him. "
Li Qiuping stared at Li He for a while before saying, "My eyes are useless. I really can't see it."
He didn't think that Su Ming was trying to scare him. With Su Ming's current status, there was no need for him to use his connections to intimidate others. He didn't know how many antiques Su Ming had collected, but he knew that none of them were for sale.
The reason why he didn't sell it was probably because he didn't lack money!
Su Ming said, "Do you still remember Chen Lihua?"
Li Qiuping nodded. "Sigh, this woman has robbed a lot of good stuff."
Su Ming said stubbornly, "I hope we can continue to be friends. The more friends we have, the more opportunities we have."
What did that mean?
Li Qiuping understood it very well, but he didn't expect the topic to change so quickly. He sneered and said, "Mr. Su, I know what you're capable of, but I'm not afraid of you threatening me. Do you think your crotch is cleaner than mine? "
Li He suddenly thought of something. He stood up and walked to the courtyard. He looked around in the open area and couldn't help but laugh.
The onlookers were baffled.
Li Qiuping asked curiously, "What are you laughing at?"
Li He smiled and said, "I think we can be neighbors from now on."
"Neighbors?" Li Qiuping was still puzzled.
"If I remember correctly, the houses around here are all mine." As the number one landlord in China, Li He couldn't even remember the properties under his name.
Li Qiuping sneered, "Mr. Li, you must be joking."
He knew very well that when he bought his house, he had wanted to expand it into a larger area. However, the people nearby were not willing to sell it, so he had to settle for 800 square meters.
Now, Li He told him that the houses around here were his?
Seems like it?
Isn't this a joke?
Da Kui didn't need to be told. He went to the courtyard and dialed Pinsong's number. Then, he came back and nodded at Li He.
Li He was even more confident now. "Let's be neighbors from now on. I'm going to build a few tall buildings around here. It'll be a good view from the top."
Su Ming smiled and said, "Brother, that's a good idea. Let's not build tall. Let's just build 20 stories. I'll move here in the future too. I can keep you company. "
Li Qiuping looked at the two of them. He didn't think that they were joking, but he was definitely not willing to believe them like that.
"The two of you, how about this? Since I don't have it now, I'll send it to you after I see what it is." He was retreating in order to advance. If Li He and the others were really capable, he was willing to admit defeat. It was better to give up a jade thumb ring than to have his house blocked.
How much was a jade thumb ring worth?
It would only be worth a few hundred thousand if it was auctioned off!
If these two were bluffing, he could just ignore them.
"I haven't been to Panjiayuan and Liulichang for many years. Mr. Li, you can accompany me to take a look when you have time." Su Ming added fuel to the fire.
Li Qiuping's face turned ugly. They were obviously trying to steal his business and stop him from making money!
Li He didn't say anything else. He waved at Da Kui and the others and left Li Qiuping's house.
When he got home, his shirt was soaked in sweat and his pants were stuck to his legs. Li He quickly took a shower and changed his clothes.
Before he finished lunch, Su Ming came again with a green jade thumb ring in his hand.
Li He smiled and took it. "Didn't he say anything?"
Su Ming shook his head. "He didn't say anything. He asked someone to send it to my company."
Li He said, "Be careful in the future. He's not a good person."
"How should we deal with the person who set you up?"
Li He waved his hand. "Beat him up and let him go."
Speaking of which, his father wasn't a stupid person. How could he blame others?
After Su Ming left, Li Zhaokun's eyes avoided looking at the thumb ring in his son's hand. He had worn the thumb ring for such a long time. Of course he recognized it, but he didn't expect it to be back in his son's hands!
Li He sighed. "Do you recognize this?"
Li Zhaokun said guiltily, "For what?"
"How much did he pay you?" Li He still had some doubts about this.
"Nonsense." Li Zhaokun refused to admit it for the sake of his pride. "It might have been lost by a child playing around."
"Alright, keep wearing it and hide it." Li He thought about it and gave the thumb ring to Li Zhaokun. "Do you know how much this is worth?"
"How much?" Li Zhaokun took it and put it back on the thumb ring. Then, he pretended to say casually, "It's just a piece of broken jade."
Li He said helplessly, "Dad, remember, don't even think about this jade thumb ring for less than a million!"
"A million!" Li Zhaokun jumped out of his chair. "Is it really that much?"
When he saw his son nod solemnly, he became annoyed!
He quickly held the thumb ring tighter.
He felt a lingering fear in his heart. Luckily, he got it back!
The old goods collector only gave him less than ten thousand yuan. He thought he had gotten a great deal!
Now, he just wanted to strangle that old goods collector!
