Magic City.

A world-class bustling city, the financial center.

However, the Grand Fortune Jewelry's sky-high treasure hunt had attracted the attention of the whole country. Media from all over the country swarmed to this bustling city. Countless antique collectors, people who liked jade, experts who studied jade carving, and even some businessmen all came to this bustling city.

At Paradise Manor.

In the past, this high-end dining, leisure, and entertainment venue was now full of guests. Countless people had booked the hotels, inns, and even the farmhouses in the vicinity of Paradise Manor. Even though there were so many guest rooms, the supply still couldn't meet the demand.

Many people couldn't find a place to stay, so they simply set up tents outside the Paradise Manor and waited for the person with the twelve zodiac jade carvings to appear.

"Who can become a billionaire?"

This topic had been hyped up and became extremely popular, but it was getting more and more intense.

Inside the VIP building of Paradise Manor, Hao Lei, who had become a household name, sat by the window with a frown and looked at the surging tide of people outside without uttering a word for a long time.

"Pa …"

The door was pushed open as Chi Nan came in with a smile. She looked at the surprised Hao Lei and giggled, "How does it feel to be a big star, Big Sis Lei? Aren't you intoxicated and enjoying the taste of fame? "

"Had I known that I'd be happy like this, I wouldn't have agreed to it even if you beat me to death," said Hao Lei with a forced smile. "Enjoying it? This was simply suffering, a very torturous thing. I'm afraid I'll be affected if I want to carry out any tasks in the future. But you, how did you come here? Haven't you been cultivating in seclusion at the HQ in Jingmen Island? "

The smile on Chi Nan's face turned thicker. She gently stepped forward and gave her a hug, saying with a charming smile, "I can't always cultivate in seclusion, can I? It's time to go out, so I naturally have to come out for some fresh air. In fact, I didn't expect that I would hear such an interesting thing when I just returned to Shanghai. "

Hao Lei rolled her eyes and snappily said, "I think you're gloating over my misfortune."

"How am I gloating over your misfortune?" Chi Nan giggled. "I just feel sorry for you. Hahaha …"

Hao Lei thought for a while and said, "How about I ask the Boss to give you the work here? It's not a problem to use the name of Grand Fortune Jewelry. I just need to announce to the public that you are the one who has spent a lot of money to find the twelve zodiac jade carvings. "

"No, no, no."

The smile on Chi Nan's face froze. She waved her hand and said, "Sis Leilei, my good sister, please let me go! I'm not suitable for this kind of thing where I show my face in public! Besides, since the boss has been handed over to you, and you have become a well-known figure, how can I have the nerve to blindly follow you? The boss will reprimand us. "

Hao Lei shook her head and sighed, "I'm so unlucky! He really took the blame for the boss. "

Chi Nan curiously asked, "Sister Lei Lei, why does the boss want to find the twelve zodiac jade carvings? A zodiac jade carving cost 100 million USD, which was simply a sky-high price. Does the boss think that having too much money is a burden? Do you want to burn money for fun? "

Hao Lei hesitated for a moment before replying in a low voice, "I don't know about this, either. I didn't dare to ask Mo Awu after seeing him. Nannan, we all know the boss's personality. If he doesn't tell us personally, we can't say anything even if we're curious. "

"I got it." Chi Nan quickly nodded.

"Nannan, according to my understanding of the boss, he will never do something as boring as burning money for fun, even if he recently made a windfall," said Hao Lei. "I feel that he must have his own purpose. Or perhaps, those zodiac jade carvings are not ordinary objects. I'm afraid it's worth 100 million USD. "

"That's right. The boss never makes a losing deal," agreed Chi Nan. "But you said that the boss recently made a windfall, what's the situation?"

"It can be said that the Bloodkin of Europe's Salzburg made a deal with the boss. The boss sold them 100 medicinal pills, and they took out 20 billion pounds, or items of equal value, or cultivation resources useful to us." Hao Lei smilingly said.

20 billion pounds?

Even though Chi Nan knew some large transactions, she was still shocked. In the past, she knew that some big deals were only worth tens of billions, and they were all in RMB. But she had never heard of a transaction worth 20 billion pounds, nearly 200 billion RMB.

"Sister Lei Lei, those Bloodkin are all fools, aren't they? Why do they need to spend so much money to buy 100 medicinal pills? Or do they have too much money to burn? "

"Those medicinal pills that the boss took out are very helpful to the Bloodkin," said Hao Lei smilingly. "I heard that Shanjenna, the Bloodkin who stayed in the Paradise Club before, got great benefits."

Chi Nan suddenly understood and sighed, "It seems that the Bloodkin are really going all out to become stronger." * * *

At the entrance of the Paradise Manor.

Yang Pengchao and Yue Li ran while panting. The hot weather made them hungry, thirsty, and exhausted since they didn't have breakfast and lunch. Yang Pengchao, holding a black leather bag, and Yue Li squeezed through the large number of media personnel outside and came to the gate blocked by dozens of security guards.

"Two gentlemen, please show your Paradise Manor's VIP membership card."

Jin Shi, who temporarily acted as the security team captain, coldly stared at Yang Pengchao and Yue Li and spoke.

Yang Pengchao and Yue Li exchanged glances. After hesitating for a moment, they said, "Hello, we don't have your VIP membership card."

"It doesn't matter if you don't have it," said Jin Shi. "You only need to pay 2 million to apply for a Paradise Manor VIP membership card. Of course, 2 million is equivalent to saving it in your VIP membership card and you can spend it in the Paradise Manor. "

2 million?

Yang Pengchao was secretly speechless. He looked at Jin Shi's indifferent expression and quickly turned to look at the hundreds of media personnel nearby. Then, he whispered, "We're actually here to sell something. Isn't Hao Lei, the General Manager of Grand Fortune Jewelry, in this Paradise Manor? We want to find her … "

Jin Shi's expression moved and he immediately said, "Please come with me, two gentlemen."

Ten minutes later.

Jin Shi led Yang Pengchao and Yue Li to the temporary VIP lounge and said, "I've just informed Manager Hao. She'll be here soon. Please take a rest here first."

"Thank you."

Yang Pengchao and Yue Li hurriedly replied.

Both of them came from the bottom of society and had never been to such a luxurious place. They were shocked along the way. With Jin Shi's departure, only the two of them were left in the hundreds of square meters VIP lounge. Yang Pengchao turned to look at the tea table in front of the huge sofa, as well as several exquisite pastries placed on it.

Gurgle …

Yang Pengchao's stomach growled. He awkwardly looked at Yue Li and hesitated for a moment before asking, "Are you hungry? There are pastries and tea on the table. You can eat some first if you're hungry. "

Yue Li endured the feeling of hunger as she shook her head and worriedly said, "Let's not eat. If we have to pay for the food here, we …"

Yang Pengchao interrupted her and pulled her to the sofa to take a seat. He then brought two plates of pastries and drinks and said, "It's alright. We don't have to worry about not having money to spend here as long as they're willing to buy my jade monkey. Besides, you can eat it if you're hungry. I can afford these pastries and drinks even if I can't sell the jade monkey. "

"Alright!"

Yue Li felt warm inside and silently took it.

Creak …

As the VIP lounge's door was pushed open, Hao Lei led four experts of the Everlasting Feast Hall in black suits and strode inside. When she saw Yang Pengchao and Yue Li hurriedly getting up from the sofa with pastries and drinks in their hands, a surprised look flashed in her eyes. She smilingly stepped forward and asked, "Hello, I'm Hao Lei, the General Manager of Grand Fortune Jewelry. I just heard that you have the twelve zodiac jade carvings. May I know if it's true?"

Yang Pengchao put down the pastries and drinks. Hao Lei's aura and the four big men in black made him a bit nervous, so he braced himself and said, "Yes, I have the jade monkey."

"Please have a seat. No need to be nervous." Hao Lei smiled.

After taking a seat.

"May I know how to address you, Sir?" asked Hao Lei with a smile.

"I'm Yang Pengchao, and she's Yue Li."

Yang Pengchao hurriedly said.

"Mr. Yang, since you said you have the jade monkey, I wonder if you can let me see it first?" Hao Lei said with a smile.

Yang Pengchao hesitated and didn't immediately take out the jade monkey. Instead, he hurriedly asked, "The newspaper said that you're willing to spend 100 million dollars to buy the twelve zodiac carvings. Is … is it true? What if I give you the jade monkey and you don't give me the money? "

"Pfft …"

"You don't need to worry about money, Little Brother," said Hao Lei with a charming smile. "Our Boss doesn't lack integrity. As long as the jade monkey you bring is what our Boss needs, we'll definitely pay you 100 million dollars. For the sake of your safety, we will even keep your identities a secret. "

"Really?"

Yang Pengchao was pleasantly surprised.

"It's more real than real gold." Hao Lei nodded.

As Yang Pengchao was about to take out the jade monkey from his black leather bag, Yue Li, who was next to him, suddenly asked, "Big Sis Hao Lei, you just said that the person who wants to buy the twelve zodiac jade carvings is your Boss? But I've checked your information on the Internet. It's written that you're the General Manager of Grand Fortune Jewelry! "

"You're still students, aren't you?" Hao Lei said with a smile, "General Manager and Big Boss are two different concepts. I'm just the General Manager responsible for managing the Grand Fortune Jewelry business, not the real Boss. Of course, if the jade monkey you bring is real, you'll see our Boss. "

Yue Li suddenly realized and nodded with a bit of embarrassment.

Yang Pengchao took out the jade monkey from his leather bag and handed it to Hao Lei, saying, "This is the jade monkey. I bought it for 200 yuan."

"200 yuan?"

Hao Lei stared blankly for a moment. Her eyes lingered on the jade monkey a few times before she took it and carefully appraised it. She had seen the jade dragon and jade tiger in the hands of her Boss, Tan Xiu. She also learned from Tan Xiu that there was a gray mark on the head of each zodiac jade carving.
