It’s okay to have a poor academic brother at home. This guy has a low IQ and is even less smart than Chen Laoer.
But the wife he married was a naive and innocent girl with no scheming at all, which made Chen Xia really want to disappear instantly or explode on the spot.
Fortunately, this happened in front of relatives. If it happened in society, where I am unfamiliar with the place and show off my wealth like this, it would definitely cause big trouble.
So there are both advantages and disadvantages to marrying such a brainless wife.
The good thing is that it's easy to get along with her. You never have to worry about her overthinking. She's easy to coax and fool. The bad thing is that she's too lazy. She's too lazy to think and too lazy to move.
Another thing is that he doesn't speak without thinking. Readers think that Chen Xia is a little stupid and has a simple mind. In fact, Gu Lin and Chen Dong have simpler minds, they are simply single-celled organisms.
But if Chen Xia, a fool, is paired with a scheming bitch, do you think the Chen family can still have peace?
If Chen Xia has an affair in the future, will his wife find out immediately? Will she then secretly transfer your assets and divorce you?
So it’s better to be brainless than to be combined with other brainless people.
Old man Chen Defa was also surprised and asked, "Xiao Xia, where did you get all these jewels? I remember that our family has been poor farmers for eight generations. Our ancestors have never been high-ranking officials. Don't say that your grandfather passed them down to you."
Chen Xia scratched his head and touched his nose. Just as he was about to speak, Chen Shuqin looked at him with disdain:
"Gu Lin, look at this. Your man's little actions show that he's going to lie. Alas, the reason I don't want to get married is that I don't want to be deceived by men. These men, regardless of age, are not good people."
Chen Defa, Dai Ning, and Chen Xia all coughed desperately. Once the map cannon was fired, all the men present were blown into ashes.
The grandfather glared at his little daughter, then said earnestly:
"Xiao Xia, please speak nicely. We are all family here. If the jade is not obtained legitimately, you can return it. If the jade is what you deserve, we will help you sell it for a good price."
"Well," Chen Xia was about to touch his nose again, but suddenly saw the half-smiles on his aunt and Gu Lin's faces, and immediately put his hand down.
This is really the case of "people get redder when they are around red people, and blacker when they are around black people". Gu Lin is going to be led astray.
"These jades were actually collected by me from Ruili, Nanyun Province. Gu Lin, do you remember that time when Lou Jianling and I had a fight, I was suspended for three months, and then I went on a trip to Nanyun Province?"
Gu Lin nodded. "Remember, when you came back, you were lying on a chair in the hospital. Everyone thought you were an African refugee."
"That was the time I was traveling in Nanyun Province. When I arrived in Ruili, I realized how poor the people there were. There were no doctors when I was sick, so I volunteered there for two months, treating ethnic minorities every day. They had no money, so they used jade as payment."
Chen Shuqin's eyes widened. "No way, they're using high-end jade like this as medical expenses?"
"Yes, I performed surgery on them. You have to know that in a place like that, even a small appendicitis can be fatal. I saved so many people, so it's normal for people to give me some jade. The key is..."
Everyone asked in unison: "What's the key?"
Chen Xia said mysteriously, "The key is that jadeite in the mainland is not valuable now, and it's even less valuable in small border places like Ruili that can't even be found on the map. So I've already cleared out all the jadeite there."
"Wow~~~"
Chen Shuqin was excited:
"Then you have a lot of jade, don't you? Jade is very valuable here in Hong Kong, especially high-quality icy jade with a bright green hue like this one, which is incredibly expensive. The imperial green emerald jade on Gu Lin's neck is even more priceless."
After hearing this, Chen Qiu became thoughtful.
Thinking back to when farmers exchanged grain for oseltamivir, my brother also received an emerald imperial bracelet. He said at the time that the bracelet was super expensive, so it seems to be true.
So he asked, "Aunt, if I had a grandmother-grown imperial green bracelet, how much would it sell for now?"
Everyone looked at Chen Shuqin, even the great grandfather and the great aunt were very curious.
Chen Shuqin pointed to the jade bracelet in the box and asked, "You mean, a bracelet like this? Emerald glass?"
Chen Qiu nodded.
Chen Shuqin said, "That's expensive. Even at Zhou's Jewelry, we don't get such high-end bracelets in a year. I remember Mrs. Li bought one during the Chinese New Year and it cost her 5 million Hong Kong dollars."
Everyone exclaimed "Wow" again.
5 million! Anita Mui only spent one million to buy a 200-square-meter house, which means she has 5 "luxury houses".
At this time, my eldest aunt Chen Shufen interrupted and said, "Yes, yes, Mrs. Liu from our Garment Chamber of Commerce also has an emerald glass bracelet. She only takes it out on major holidays and says she wants it to be a family heirloom."
At this time, Chen Qiu and Gu Lin looked at Chen Xia at the same time, because they had seen with their own eyes the bed full of emerald glass bracelets and other jewelry.
At the time, I just thought these jades were beautiful, but now I know how valuable they are. A bracelet costs 5 million Hong Kong dollars, so he has bracelets worth hundreds of millions of Hong Kong dollars, not including other jewelry.
As a professional woman, Chen Shuqin has a natural sensitivity. When she saw the shocked expressions of the girls when they saw Chen Xia, she suddenly had a guess.
"Xiao Xia, you don't have this kind of emerald glass jade bracelet, do you?"
Chen Dong calmly drank his Coke and nodded, "Yes, I just told you, there are a lot of them."
Before Chen Qiu could stop him, Gu Lin had already nodded, indicating that Chen Laosi was right.
Chen Xia covered his forehead with his hands again...
There was silence at the scene. The great grandfather and the great aunt were fine, but the great uncle Dai Ning was secretly surprised.
He originally thought that they were poor relatives who came from the mainland to seek refuge, and he felt a little contempt for them, even though he himself was from the mainland.
I thought that since a poor relative had come and the garment factory was founded by my father-in-law, giving him a position like a squad leader would be considered a promotion for him and could help his family escape from misery.
Now it seems that I was being too sentimental. Maybe the other person's strength is far above mine, then Chen Xia's status will undoubtedly be raised.
Now everyone believes that Chen Xia has a lot of high-end jadeite, and the grandfather is very happy.
"Since you have the ability, I think you might as well come to Hong Kong and settle down. Don't worry, just because your two uncles didn't help your family when they were in trouble, I don't want to leave the house to them. If you come, I will give you the whole house."
"Grandpa, let's talk about the house later. Now I have an idea. Can you give me some advice?"
"What's the matter? Tell me. Grandpa has some connections in Hong Kong. Whether you want to settle down or do business, he has some connections."
"I want to do business with my aunt."
