Chapter 422: Winning Beautifully, Three Parties Investigate Her (Part 1)
The last time Jiang Fuyue called out, "A jade seal with a silver ring and a red chalcedony carved on it."
The appraiser and Xu Yao were both stunned.
I originally thought she would continue to use US dollars, but it suddenly became something else, so the surprise was understandable.
But after carefully identifying what that thing was, Xu Yao narrowed his eyes and smiled.
"I was wondering what the wind was that blew a giant Buddha like Mr. Jiang here today. It turns out it had nothing to do with the wind. It was the Buddha who wanted to come here on his own, and nothing could stop him."
Jiang Fuyue also laughed, not feeling the slightest bit embarrassed by being exposed. "Isn't it great that I'm delivering what Boss Xu wants?"
"That's great. But if you don't send it, someone else will."
He was referring to Lou Mingxin.
"Now you are rushing to deliver it and want to negotiate terms with me. I think it would be better to let the previous person deliver it. What do you think?" The man smiled.
"Boss Xu, I think there's one thing you haven't figured out yet. It's not like anyone can just give it to you just because you want it. The thing is in my hands, so it's mine..."
Jiang Fuyue slowly curled her lips, and every word she said next hit the other person's irritation point, tap dancing desperately: "If I want to give it to you, you can have it. If I don't give it to you, you can only watch helplessly, understand?"
The man's throat choked, his expression suddenly stern. "You bought this thing before Lou Mingxin did, just to raise the price and negotiate terms with me?"
"No, no, no, I just want to make things difficult for her. If she wants carnelian, I'll take it away from her. If she wants the land development rights from you, I'll make your cooperation impossible and even make us enemies. How's that? Isn't it exciting?"
Xu Yao: "Crazy!"
Jiang Fuyue kept smiling and took the red chalcedony handed to him by Liu Sisi, playing with it in his hands like an old man playing with walnuts.
The careless look and casual movements made Xu Yao shudder with fear. That was Muhammad's seal!
Is there anyone who is as messy as her?! What if it falls?!
Resisting the urge to scold, Xu Yao took a deep breath and hid his true emotions, so as not to let the other party see that he cares and become more fearless.
Unfortunately, as soon as he first looked at Carnelian, Jiang Fuyue caught the unconcealable nervousness in the man's eyes.
He was anxious!
"I'm going to bet on a red chalcedony. Boss Xu, you can either take out a piece of the same red chalcedony that once belonged to an emperor, or you can beat up Lou Mingxin for me, leaving him with a black eye and a swollen face. Take your choice.
Xu Yao's eyelids twitched and he gritted his teeth: "Where can you expect me to find you a piece of red chalcedony in such a short time?!" And it had to be a jade seal!
Jiang Fuyue shrugged and spread his hands: "Then it's none of my business."
Xu Yao: “…” He wanted to hit someone.
"Actually, there's another option. If Boss Xu can't produce the carnelian and doesn't want to teach Lou Mingxin a lesson, then just admit defeat! Take the initiative to withdraw, and the gambling game will end. Your losses will only be the small amount you made from the previous bets. How much is that?"
She turned and asked Liu Sisi.
The latter smiled slightly: "Not much, 370 million US dollars."
Jiang Fuyue nodded: "It's indeed not much. Didn't Boss Xu say that the last thing we lack is money? It's no big deal."
Xu Yao had a mouthful of blood stuck in his throat, which he could neither spit out nor swallow.
Almost choked to death.
But there are really only two choices at the moment - either admit defeat and cut losses in time; or follow through to the last round and directly show down your cards to see who's better.
Jiang Fuyue glanced at the hourglass beside him and reminded him: "Boss Xu, you still have thirty seconds."
“…I’ll follow!”
Clap, clap, clap—Jiang Fuyue clapped her hands.
"What to choose?"
Xu Yao's mouth twitched, but he finally agreed to her request: "...I'll help you teach Lou Mingxin a lesson."
Jiang Fuyue's eyes lit up immediately. "Wouldn't it have been better if you had done this earlier? Why make yourself so upset? Don't you agree?"
Xu Yao: “…” I really want to sew that chattering mouth shut.
Dealer: "Now please show your cards."
Xu Yao picked up the cards in front of him and threw them to the middle of the gambling table. They were all spades, a pair of A's and three K's in a row!
Jiang Fuyue smiled slowly and unhurriedly turned over the five cards in front of him one by one. They were all spades, including five Ks.
"How is this possible?!" Xu Yao had never lost his composure like this before.
"Ah!" Jiang Fuyue pretended to be amazed, "It seems that I am really lucky today."
There are 7 decks of cards, more than 300 cards, and only 7 of them are Kings of Spades. Now five of them are in Jiang Fuyue's hand.
It's more than just good luck, it's simply weird and abnormal!
"Are you cheating?" Xu Yao raised his chin slightly and glanced at him coldly.
Jiang Fuyue's smile remained unchanged: "Boss Xu, do you overestimate me, or underestimate yourself?"
Xu Yao has been dominating the casino scene for many years. Who dares to play tricks in front of him?
The reason I asked this was just to trick the other party.
And Jiang Fuyue's behavior did not seem like she was playing tricks, so... just by luck, she got five Kings of Spades?
Xu Yao couldn't believe it. Clearly, before he died...
Logically speaking, he should be the one with the best luck!
"Xiao Liu'er, take the money." Jiang Fuyue raised his hand.
Liu Sisi immediately gathered the chips on the gambling table in front of her, putting them in front of her and counting them, her eyes shining.
Oh my god! That’s a lot of money!
Not only did I make back all the money I spent on the auction, I even had some left over!
Suddenly, the look he gave Jiang Fuyue was filled with an additional layer of infatuation besides admiration——
How can there be such a powerful person in the world?
Liu Si thought that she would never meet anyone more dazzling than Jiang Fuyue in her life.
Even if there was, it would not be possible for her to attract all his gaze and attention like she did, and affect all his emotions and thoughts.
"Boss Xu, you lose." Jiang Fuyue stood up and spoke each word clearly. "I'll take the money first. Please handle the matter as soon as possible. After all, Lou Mingxin will leave City A the day after tomorrow afternoon. Once he crosses the provincial border, it's no longer your Jufeng Group's territory."
After saying that, he took Liu Sisi in his arms and left.
The back figure looks indescribably arrogant and presumptuous.
But Xu Yao had no way to deal with it and could only watch the two of them walk away.
He lost all his money, his people, his reputation and his dignity!
"Grass!"
It took a full five minutes for the man to calm down again.
He raised his hand and called a bodyguard over: "Go and find out who this guy is."
"yes."
"Also, you can handle Lou Mingxin's situation."
"……yes."
"Wait," Xu Yao didn't know what he was thinking. He called the person back and coughed lightly. "Remember, you have to give him a black eye."
"……oh."
"Better put on a sack."
The bodyguard's eye twitched: "...Yes."
Liu Sisi exchanged the chips for cash at the front desk, refused the check, and asked the other party to transfer the money directly to her bank card.
Only after confirming that the money had been received and the amount was correct did he leave with Jiang Fuyue.
"I didn't expect you were such a money-grubber."
But with just a casual joke, Liu Sisi performed a double-cheek show on the spot.
Jiang Fuyue felt it was magical and couldn't help but touch her face.
Well, it’s tender and smooth, and feels good. It would be better if it wasn’t powdered.
Liu Sisi's eyes widened like a frightened puppy, and then...
Her face became more and more red.
Jiang Fuyue smacked her lips: "Why are you so shy?"
…
At two o'clock in the morning, the people who were investigating Jiang Fuyue from Xu Yao's side came back.
"...He's from the Imperial Capital. His identity information has been specially processed, so it can't be found through normal channels."
Xu Yao sat behind his desk, one hand supporting his temple: "What about the abnormal channels?"
Subordinate: "It will take time, and it is not certain whether it can be found out."
"……"Grass!
It's obvious that he came prepared.
"Also, during our investigation, we discovered two other groups of people who were also investigating this Jiang."
"Really?" Xu Yao raised his eyebrows and sat up straight subconsciously. "Which two groups?"
"One group was sent by the Lou family."
Needless to say, Lou Mingxin must have been unwilling to accept the fact that his red chalcedony was stolen, so he wanted to snatch it back from the other party.
"What about the other group?"
"He's from the Imperial Capital. He also appeared at the Ketti auction yesterday and bought a piece of Yuan blue and white porcelain. He has a deep background and close connections with the higher-ups. He had a smooth journey from the Imperial Capital to City A, with official escort."
The subordinate paused for a moment and expressed his speculation: "They should be here for that Yuan Dynasty blue and white porcelain. It's said to be a national treasure that has been lost and they want it returned intact. But I don't know why they are connected to Jiang and have even used official channels to investigate him. However, their methods are relatively gentle, so they are probably not enemies in the true sense of the word."
After hearing this, Xu Yao looked thoughtful.
I didn't expect that an auction would attract so many forces and even drag myself into it...
Damn it!
