Chapter Ninety-One: Li Hang's Request

"Brother Li, how's business these days?" Lin Yun asked with a smile.

"This is fantastic! Our customer base has increased several times over! Haha!" Li Hang laughed loudly.

"The problem is that our store has too few high-end jade jewelry pieces. Many people come here, some want to buy, and some just want to see them, but our store doesn't have enough stock. As a result, several powerful jewelry stores are taking the opportunity to suppress us and hold promotions..." Li Hang paused and smiled bitterly.

Rivalry is common among competitors. Compared to other jewelry stores, Shenzhen is a vast and high-quality market. Naturally, there are many powerful jewelry stores in Shenzhen. As Li's Jewelry Store shows signs of rising, it naturally attracts the suppression of many powerful jewelry stores.

Unfortunately, many of the jadeite he bought from Lin Yun were not made into finished products; otherwise, he wouldn't have been suppressed so severely.

"Could it be that Brother Li didn't buy enough jade from me the other day? Or has Brother Li already sold them all?" Lin Yun was taken aback.

“How could that be? I bought a lot of jade last time, but…” Li Hang quickly replied.

Then, he told Lin Yun about their current situation.

Because he bought only the finest jadeite from Lin Yun, the craftsmanship was extremely meticulous. Each piece of jewelry required a considerable amount of time to complete. Most importantly, Li's Jewelry did not have many high-level jewelry makers, and they were afraid of wasting the jadeite by having ordinary jewelry makers make them.

"I see..." Lin Yun said thoughtfully.

This problem seemed easy to solve; he hadn't thought of it before, but Li Hang reminded him.

The Cosmic Trading System has a lot of equipment for making jewelry.

Moreover, there are many exquisite templates.

The vast starry sky, the bizarre and beautiful scenery, the tall and mighty, and the cute star beasts are all models.

"If that's the problem, I can solve it," Lin Yun said with a slight smile.

Some owners of cosmic trading systems even make a living by carving various items, so why can't he?

"Brother Lin knows any high-end jewelry makers?" Li Hang asked in surprise.

"Not only that, Brother Li, do you have time? I'll show you some jewelry, and you'll understand," Lin Yun said with a smile.

“I’m available anytime,” Li Hang replied.

"Okay." Lin Yun nodded.

The two then agreed to meet at the Qingyun Hotel.

Half an hour later, the two arrived at the restaurant one after the other. This time, they did not meet in the restaurant, but in a small conference room.

On his way here, Lin Yun had already bought a jewelry processing machine and selected some jewelry designs, which he then carved using some top-quality jade.

"Brother Li, what do you think of these things?" Lin Yun asked with a smile as he placed the items on the table.

Several bracelets, several rings, several pendants, several earrings, and some ornaments. One of them is a fierce beast, roaring to the sky, which gives off a powerful aura. Another one is a cute beast with two big eyes looking at you. There are also several landscapes that look very beautiful, as if they are real and dreamlike.

"This...this...this..." Li Hang's face changed drastically as he looked at the ornaments, and he stammered, unable to speak.

These ornaments are so exquisite; each piece is like a work of art.

Even Master Zhang could not carve such exquisite ornaments.

Looking at these exquisite ornaments, he hesitated to touch them, as if afraid of breaking them.

"What, is that not allowed?" Lin Yun said with a smile.

His words were somewhat sarcastic. Although he didn't understand what Chinese carving was like, he was certain that these ornaments were very well carved. He knew that Li Hang must have been stunned.

“If these ornaments don’t work, then there’s nothing else that will do.” Li Hang took a deep breath, looked at Lin Yun, and said with a wry smile, “I didn’t expect that Brother Lin would know such a great carving master. I have seen several ornaments carved by top carving masters before. These ornaments are in no way inferior to those ornaments. Most importantly, the carvings on these ornaments are very original. I have never seen them before, but they are very natural, which greatly increases the value of these ornaments.”

"So, Brother Li, are you planning to accept these ornaments?" Lin Yun blinked.

“Brother Lin, you may not be aware of the value of these ornaments. Good craftsmanship can greatly increase the value of a piece of jade. Each of these ornaments is a masterpiece. If used well, their value is unimaginable. I really want to buy them, but I just bought some of your jade, and my funds are almost gone. I really don’t have the money to buy them…” Li Hang said with a wry smile.

"These ornaments are very valuable?" Lin Yun asked in surprise.

He only used five pieces of jade to carve these ornaments, and each piece of jade was about the same size as the one he had previously sold to Li Hang.

“They’re very valuable. All these ornaments combined are worth more than the jadeite you sold me before.” Li Hang nodded emphatically.

"Uh..." Lin Yun was also speechless.

He truly had no idea that such carvings were so valuable.

The items carved from five pieces of jade were worth more than the value of fifteen pieces of jade, more than tripling in value.

The cost of this carving was only a few spiritual energy points he spent when buying the equipment; the actual carving cost was almost zero.

If only he had carved these jade pieces when he sold them.

However, it didn't matter. He had already sold the jade to Li Hang, and he had a fairly good impression of Li Hang, so he wasn't disappointed. Besides, he had only sold less than twenty pieces of jade to Li Hang in total, which wasn't worth many spiritual energy points.

"If you can wait, Brother Lin, let me sell those jade ornaments..." Looking at the exquisite ornaments on the table, Li Hang couldn't bear to part with them. He gritted his teeth and said.

At this moment, he had already made up his mind: he would have Old Zhang carve those jade pieces as soon as possible, and even if he had to sell them cheaply, he would have to get rid of them quickly so that he could use the money to buy Lin Yun's jewelry.

"How about this, Brother Li, if you don't mind, you can take these ornaments and decide how much to sell them for. We'll split the profits 20/80, how about you get 20% and I'll get 80%?" Lin Yun thought for a moment and said.

After saying that, Lin Yun suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

It seems like he's trying to steal business from Li Hang. If these items are sold in Li Hang's shop, will those wealthy customers still be willing and able to buy other jewelry after buying these pieces?

“Sanqi will also work,” Lin Yun quickly replied.

"You want me to sell these ornaments?" Li Hang asked in surprise.

He really loved these ornaments. If he had the money, he would have bought them immediately. Now, hearing Lin Yun ask him to sell them, he was overjoyed. He was happy and willing to sell such exquisite ornaments!

Not to mention, Lin Yun also had to give him a share.

Moreover, he was well aware that these decorative items, which could be considered works of art, could elevate his shop to a higher level if handled properly.

Lin Yun's worries were actually somewhat unnecessary.

There are many wealthy people in Shenzhen, so the only concern is that the products in your store might not be good enough.

Their store lacks high-quality, top-tier jewelry.

Once his shops have a large selection of high-quality, top-tier jewelry, attracting a large number of wealthy customers, why would he worry about the other items in his shops not selling?

“Okay, we’ll split it 30/70, but I have one request,” Li Hang nodded repeatedly.

"What are the requirements?" Lin Yun asked curiously.

The 30/70 split was actually a very high percentage for Li Hang, yet Li Hang still had demands. Lin Yun didn't feel it was excessive, because based on his understanding of Li Hang from their previous interactions, Li Hang shouldn't make any unreasonable requests.

"I'm going to transfer 30% of the shares in Li's Jewelry Store to you," Li Hang said with a slight smile.
