Chapter 168 Raising Prices
"Uncle Hu, can you sell me this jade amulet?"
Lin Fan pointed at the Jade Bixie with great excitement; it was a rare treasure even in the Nine Netherworlds.
"of course can."
Uncle Hu opened the glass cabinet with a friendly smile and handed the jade talisman to Lin Fan.
The moment Lin Fan's fingertips touched the jade Bixie, a surge of energy coursed through his entire body.
Lin Fan's mind conjured up an image of an old man with white hair, recounting his martial arts journey.
Seeing that Lin Fan was so fond of the Jade Bixie, Jiang Lingfu said to Uncle Hu:
"Uncle Hu, how much is it? I'll buy it! It'll be a gift for Brother Fan."
Just then, a defiant voice rang out from the crowd: "Boss, I want this jade talisman!"
Jiang Lingfu looked in the direction of the sound and saw a young man wearing Armani.
The young man looked to be around 20 years old, with a tall and beautiful female companion in his arms, and two bodyguards in black suits standing behind him.
Jiang Lingfu took a closer look and realized that he seemed to have seen the young man somewhere before. Then he suddenly remembered that he was Ji Wuyou, the second young master of the Ji Group.
How did the second young master of the Ji family break his arm?
Ji Wuyou adopted a condescending attitude: "How much do you want for this jade? I'll offer double the price!"
"Lin Fan, he's not..."
Su Ruowei hesitated to speak.
Su Ruowei wondered, hadn't Lin Fan apologized to her a couple of days ago?
Why is Ji Wuyou still acting so confrontational?
Lin Fan also came to his senses and saw the familiar face. He then used his Heavenly Eye to check and found that Ji Wuyou's evil aura had not yet been dispelled.
"I've taken a liking to this jade amulet, so it's mine!"
Ji Wuyou walked out of the crowd with his female companion and leaned against the glass cabinet.
The moment Ji Wuyou emerged, the onlookers all took a few steps back.
Two bodyguards in black, expressionless, pushed aside passersby and stood beside Ji Wuyou.
After the abandoned factory incident, Ji Shangde first took Ji Wuque to the hospital.
Then he went to find Fang Yixiao to inquire about Lin Fan's identity.
Fang Yixiao didn't mention it at all, but only warned him not to cause trouble.
Ji Shangde calmed down and repeatedly told Ji Wuyou, who was also in the hospital, not to cause any more trouble.
But Ji Wuyou, that hothead, hired two sect experts as bodyguards the moment he was discharged from the hospital.
Ji Wuyou planned to cater to Ji Shangde's tastes by gifting him some antiques, and then use the Ji family's power to completely crush Lin Fan and the Su family.
Unexpectedly, I ran into Lin Fan at Jubaozhai today.
Enemy road is narrow.
"Young Master Ji, do you know anyone here?" a tall woman asked, putting her arm around Ji Wuyou's neck.
Ji Wuyou said with a disdainful look, "Those are very familiar faces. This man is Lin Fan, the number one good-for-nothing in Shancheng, and the woman is Su Ruowei, from the Su family, a third-rate family."
The tall woman understood the meaning behind Ji Wuyou's words and sarcastically added, "I've heard about him, and seeing him today, he really is a good-for-nothing."
After her sarcastic remark, she kissed Ji Wuyou on the cheek: "Young Master Ji is truly extraordinary."
The onlookers suddenly realized what was happening and began to whisper among themselves.
"This is outrageous!"
Jiang Lingfu wanted to step forward to stand up for Lin Fan, but Lin Fan stopped him.
Su Ruowei also asked quietly, "Didn't you say the Ji family wouldn't cause trouble? What happened?"
Lin Fan sneered: "Ji Wuyou does not represent the Ji family."
Lin Fan continued, "He is only Ji Shangde's youngest son. Ji Shangde only recognizes Ji Wuque."
"This kid was basically raised without any supervision!"
"Don't let his current airs fool you, it's all an act. His dad doesn't give him any money normally!"
As Ji Wuyou listened to Lin Fan's ramblings, his blood rushed to his head.
"boom!"
Ji Wuyou angrily smashed the glass cabinet with his right hand: "You bastard, stop talking nonsense!"
Lin Fan ignored Ji Wuyou and pointed to a dragon-patterned jade pendant in the glass case:
"Uncle Hu, this jade pendant is from the Western Han Dynasty, right? How much is it?"
Uncle Hu was taken aback, then slowly said, "If you want to buy it, I'll give it to you for 15."
Clearly, this is one-tenth of the price.
Lin Fan frowned slightly, glanced at Jiang Lingfu, and noticed that the boy's eyes were shining, as if he was expecting something.
Lin Fan recalled that Uncle Hu had just introduced himself as a classmate of Jiang Lingfu's father.
It seems that Jiang Lingfu is trying to repay a favor by showing him the jade artifacts.
This Western Han Dynasty dragon-patterned jade pendant is genuine and should be worth at least 150 million yuan. They must have agreed to only quote one-tenth of that price.
After figuring out the details, Lin Fan feigned surprise and said, "This Western Han Dynasty jade pendant is worth at least a million, but it's so cheap! I'll take it!"
A group of onlookers craned their necks to examine the dragon-patterned jade pendant closely.
Many experts can tell at a glance that it is genuine; buying it for 15 would be a huge bargain.
Many onlookers were eager to try their luck and wanted to buy the jade pendant for a slightly higher price.
"30! Double the price, take it all!"
Ji Wuyou sneered again, pointing a finger at Lin Fan: "You dog, trying to pick up bargains? No way!"
Upon hearing that Ji Wuyou wanted to buy it, everyone abandoned the idea of raising the price.
No one dares to compete with the second young master of the second largest conglomerate in the mountain city.
"30? How could you do this? Don't you understand the principle of first come, first served?"
Lin Fan looked aggrieved, gritted his teeth and stomped his foot, saying, "I'll offer 50! Uncle Hu, sell it to me."
"this······"
Uncle Hu was completely bewildered and caught in a dilemma.
Ji Wuyou snorted coldly: "One million, take it! I want it!"
"You've got guts! I'll offer 105 million!" Lin Fan shouted.
Ji Wuyou slowly spoke: "Two million!"
The onlookers were all sweating bullets; selling this jade pendant for 200 million was already an overpricing.
Lin Fan looked dejected and unwilling.
"Forget it, Lin Fan, don't be impulsive."
Su Ruowei whispered, "200 million for a jade pendant is too expensive. Don't argue with him."
Lin Fan sighed: "Fine, fine then—"
"A country bumpkin is a country bumpkin!"
Ji Wuyou smoothed his bangs and said arrogantly, "Put this dragon-patterned jade pendant in place for me."
Uncle Hu was extremely reluctant, but since he was running a business, he still took out the jade pendant, put it in a box, and handed it over.
The tall woman took the box, her body trembling with excitement, and said, "As expected of Young Master Ji, what can those good-for-nothings compare to you?"
"Hmph, trying to steal from me, Ji Wuyou, he should take a good look at himself in the mirror."
Ji Wuyou smiled at the tall woman and said, "This jade pendant is for you."
The tall woman kissed Ji Wuyou's cheek again, leaving a lip print on his face.
Before Ji Wuyou could retaliate further, Lin Fan shouted again:
"Uncle Hu, is this jadeite bracelet of the glass type? How much does it cost?"
Lin Fan pointed at the bracelet and gave Uncle Hu a wink.
Uncle Hu suddenly realized what Lin Fan meant.
He stopped trying to lower the price and stated the truth directly:
"Brother, you're a real expert. This is old mine glass-type jadeite, and it's also a master craftsman's work. The price is 188 million."
"Ruowei, you'll definitely look beautiful wearing this bracelet." Lin Fan added, "Uncle Hu, could you help me with this bracelet?"
Su Ruowei quickly grabbed Lin Fan's sleeve: "It doesn't look good, I won't wear it."
