Zhong Qifeng is not far from Jincheng. Before six o'clock in the afternoon, Shen Qi returned to the Shen family. Shen Hong also came back, but his face was not very good.
"Second Uncle, that foreign power has escalated its plans against us. Today, I received news that several real estate projects in Jincheng have changed owners, and they've adopted the same strategy to attack our real estate company. If this trend continues, the real estate company alone will suffer losses of nearly 2 billion!"
Shen Qi smiled. "Two billion? Is that a lot?"
"Have you ever thought about how much they'll have to pay to cause us 2 billion in losses? I told you, don't be scared. Since they want to use this method to fight us, we'll fight to the end!"
Shen Hong once again gained confidence from Shen Qi, and his expression became stable and no longer nervous.
Because Shen Qi came back late today, it was too late to send the gold and silver to the bank, so he could only wait until tomorrow.
After dinner, Dong Zhen finally arrived.
"Mr. Shen Qi, I rushed over right after receiving your call. Mr. Wu Chengyin is also coming after hearing about it. I just spoke to him on the phone, and he'll be here in a few minutes. Do you have any plans for me to come this time?"
"Don't worry, take a look at this first."
Shen Qi smiled and pointed to the one-meter-high wooden box next to him.
Dong Zhen looked in the direction Shen Qi pointed, and her eyes suddenly widened.
Top quality redwood!
Judging from its appearance, it has a history of at least a hundred years!
Considering the value and history of rosewood, the price of this wooden box is probably in the millions!
This is because the rosewood is made into the shape of a wooden box, which does not have strong ornamental and practical value. If such rosewood is made into furniture, its value will be even higher.
"Mr. Shen Qi, this, this mahogany box?"
Shen Qi shook his head. "It's just a box. There's nothing to be surprised about. Take a look at what's inside."
Dong Zhen suppressed the excitement and surprise in her heart, walked to the mahogany box, carefully opened the box, and then was stunned again.
The deep red natural coral reaches a height of eighty centimeters!
"Hey! Can I take out this coral and have a look at it?"
Dong Zhen's voice was obviously trembling. He had seen many precious treasures, but this was the first time he had seen a natural red coral of such a large size and such good quality.
Shen Qi nodded, "Of course, I came here this time just to let you take a look at this red coral first, and then we can discuss other things."
"well!"
Dong Zhen no longer cared about what Shen Qi said, his mind was completely focused on the red coral.
He carefully moved the red coral out of the wooden box, then took out the white gloves and magnifying glass he carried with him, and studied the red coral carefully. It seemed that he was completely attracted by the red coral.
Shen Qi was not in a hurry. The more shocked Dong Zhen was, the easier it would be for him to handle the next task.
Just as Dong Zhen was studying the red coral, Wu Chengyin also came over.
"Mr. Shen Qi, I finally see you again...
Wu Chengyin had a big smile on his face and greeted Shen Qi right away, but he stopped talking halfway because he saw the red coral and was stunned.
Wu Chengyin is a businessman, but he is also very interested in all kinds of treasures and has some knowledge about corals. Of course, he knows how precious this red coral is.
He never thought that when he came to see Shen Qi this time, he would actually be able to see such a precious red coral!
"Shen Qi, Mr. Shen Qi, may I ask, what is this red coral?"
Shen Qi said, "My, I specially asked Mr. Dong Zhen to come and take a look."
Wu Chengyin suddenly became excited.
"Is this yours? So you're taking this treasure out, are you planning to sell it? Can I buy it? I'm willing to pay a high price!"
He really wanted to get this precious red coral. Although he only had some knowledge about it, he could see that this red coral was extremely precious. If he used it to show off his wealth, he wondered how many people would envy and hate him!
Before Shen Qi could say anything, Dong Zhen snorted coldly.
"Mr. Wu, I'm not trying to discourage you, but with your financial resources, I'm afraid you can't afford this red coral!"
Wu Chengyin frowned. "Master Dong Zhen, although I'm a businessman, your words are a bit hurtful. I'm not fabulously wealthy, but I can still come up with tens of millions."
Dong Zhen shook her head. "See, this is why I said you can't afford this red coral. The money you can afford is only in the tens of millions, while the value of this red coral is in the hundreds of millions!"
"I haven't finished my research yet. I need to further determine the texture, color, and grain of this red coral, and then carefully examine the carving. If these are all top-notch, the price of this red coral could reach one billion!"
"T-a billion?!"
Wu Chengyin couldn't help but gasp, "Master Dong Zhen, you didn't lie to me?"
"Why would I lie to you? This is Mr. Shen Qi's treasure, he won't sell it to me, and I can't afford it. Do I need to lie about this?"
Dong Zhen asked back in a bad mood, choking Wu Chengyin so much that he was speechless.
"Alright, forget about buying this red coral. It's simply not something you can afford. Even if you sell all your property, it probably still wouldn't be enough. You should listen to what Mr. Shen Qi has to say."
Shen Qi said, "Well, since Mr. Dong Zhen said so, I will speak frankly."
