Chapter 249: Another Crystal Core Pitfall
"Hey, Lu Weiyi!" Zhuang Mingwu jumped up and down like a monkey and came over.
"Shut up!" Lu Weiyi said the first words after seeing him.
"You fucking bastard..." Zhuang Mingwu's face immediately darkened as he saw that no one had ever given him such a cold look before or after the end of the world.
Ning Yuan sighed and looked up at him. He was usually a good talker but spoke sharply, "Master, your brother is in there! He is disabled. For such a major operation, your family only sent you here. Could you please be a little careful?"
Zhuang Mingwu avoided his gaze and muttered, "Didn't you go see a doctor?"
Ning Yuan was speechless. Even though he knew they would have another collaboration tomorrow, he didn't want to even look at him at this moment.
On the contrary, Lu Weiyi, who had been monitoring the operation with his psychic ability until it went smoothly, drank a bottle of coffee and cheered himself up.
He took out a green crystal core from his bag and looked at Zhuang Mingwu, "I have a plant crystal core. Let me go back and ask Zhuang Mingwu if he wants it. It's five thousand kilograms of jade, and it must be of good quality and worth more than one million. If he doesn't have it, I'll sell it to someone else."
Zhuang Mingwu, who had calmed down, jumped up again and raised his hands, as if to tell him not to be impulsive, "I will notify you immediately, don't be impulsive."
Lu Weiyi even doubted whether this man was a man of twenty-five or twenty-six. He was simply too drunk.
Zhuang Mingwu ignored Lu Weiyi's disdainful look, turned around and whispered something to someone, then left with his news.
Lu Weiyi turned his head and said a few words to Ning Yuan. After listening, Ning Yuan's eyes lit up. He gave a thumbs up and walked towards the toilet as if nothing had happened.
Half an hour later, Zhuang Mingxu's uncle Zhuang Chengye appeared in the hospital corridor.
The "most" beloved grandson is no match for a plant crystal core.
Lu Weiyi gave a sarcastic smile.
"I heard from Mingwu that you have a plant crystal core? Do you want to give it to your family?" Zhuang Chengye had never paid attention to Lu Weiyi before. He only paid attention to him once or twice because of Lu Xiao. His pride emanated from his bones, and a "canary" was not worthy of him.
Lu Weiyi was still a little uncomfortable with such gentle words, "Yes, sell it."
After he emphasized this, he glanced at Ning Yuan, who nodded slightly.
Zhuang Chengye smiled, as if he was looking at a spoiled junior, and said with just the right amount of helplessness, "Okay, how do you want to sell it?"
Lu Weiyi stared at him expressionlessly, watching him pretend to be stupid.
There was a silent confrontation and no one spoke until another voice came from the end of the corridor, "I heard that my nephew was injured and is undergoing surgery. How come no one told me, his uncle? You should have come to check on him."
Zhuang Chengzheng strode over with a strong aura, "Is this Weiyi? You have grown up so much. When your uncle took care of you, you were still a child."
Lu Weiyi nodded.
The old man sat directly opposite Lu Weiyi, "Is that Mingxu in there? Brother, you didn't even tell me. Have you found a good doctor? We can't let just anyone have surgery on our child." He said to the people who came with him, "Go ask which doctor performed the operation on the child, and ask them to send the old expert."
After Lu Weiyi finished the face-saving work, he took out the crystal core directly from the bag and said, "Zhuang Mingwu should have told you that this plant crystal core, which is made of five thousand kilograms of jade weighing millions of pounds, belongs to you."
Zhuang Chengye's face had been ugly for a moment since Zhuang Chengzheng appeared, but now it has recovered. He stared at Lu Weiyi as if he was looking at him seriously for the first time.
"What? Plant crystal core?" Zhuang Chengzheng didn't wait for Zhuang Chengye to speak, "This isn't a common thing? Is Wei Yi planning to sell it?"
"Yeah," Lu Weiyi responded.
There was no need for Lu Weiyi to say anything, Zhuang Chengzheng could continue the show by himself, "There is no space for jade now. No matter how many kilograms of jade you have or what its quality is, it's almost the same as stone. It's better to exchange it for crystal cores. Now all transactions in Kyoto use crystal cores."
"Why not stock up on some jade now since it's not worth much? Who knows? The price of jade may go back up in the future. Buy low and sell high," Ning Yuan interrupted at the right time and took the responsibility on himself. "We just came back and don't know the price of jade in Kyoto. For Mingxu's sake, we'll set a price that's worthy of our effort. We don't plan to make any profit."
"But I don't know if this family is short of this thing? If not, let's go and have a look at other families." Ning Yuan smiled like a fox, and immediately showed an attitude of scheming against someone.
"It's missing, how can we not have this thing?" Zhuang Chengzheng said immediately, "If you don't want it, how about giving it to me?"
"Who said I don't want it?" Zhuang Chengye looked at Zhuang Chengzheng expressionlessly, then turned to Lu Weiyi, as if giving him a reward, "Five thousand kilograms..."
"I'll offer 5,500 kilograms," Zhuang Chengzheng said before he could finish, "In business, the highest bidder wins, right, little brother?"
Ning Yuan smiled and did not respond, "We are all family, it doesn't matter who you give it to. One pen cannot write two words 'Zhuang'. Why don't you two discuss it and make some money for your subordinates so that they can have a better meal."
"Are you sure you want to sell it to him?" Zhuang Chengye aimed at Lu Weiyi.
"Isn't his surname Zhuang?" Lu Weiyi asked back.
"Yes, yes, we are all the banker's people, it doesn't matter who we give it to," Zhuang Chengzheng laughed happily.
"Aren't you afraid that my brother Mingxu will have a problem with you?" Zhuang Mingwu couldn't help but say.
Lu Weiyi looked at him in surprise, his eyes full of confusion, "I have known Zhuang Mingxu since I was six years old, and it has been eighteen years now. What incident gave you the illusion that he would force me to do something?"
He looked at Zhuang Mingwu as if he was a fool. "You, on the other hand, have refreshed my perception. I always thought you were a fool, but I didn't expect you to be so shabby. You can't afford it, so you sell favors? Does Mr. Zhuang know that you are so embarrassing outside?"
Zhuang Mingwu's chest heaved violently with anger. Lu Weiyi looked at Zhuang Chengye nonchalantly and said, "If you can't afford it, I'll give it to Master Zhuang."
"Who said we can't afford it? Six thousand kilograms," Zhuang Mingwu shouted as if he wanted to save face.
"Then let's say 6,500 kilograms," a person next to Zhuang Chengzheng said with a smile. He said it very easily and it seemed like he was not under any pressure.
After all, they are several major forces in the base, so it is not surprising that they have some storage. Lu Weiyi even suspected that these people should still have space jade in their hands.
“Seven thousand jin” Zhuang Mingwu’s words were not refuted, so he raised the price again.
"Seven thousand five hundred kilograms."
"eight……"
"Okay," Zhuang Chengye interrupted Zhuang Mingwu's words, "How can a nephew compete with his uncle?"
Zhuang Chengye is indeed a talent as he can talk about being poor in such a refreshing and refined way.
"Dad, I..." Zhuang Mingwu is about to be promoted, and he has been suppressing his supernatural powers recently. With this plant-type crystal core, he can give it a try and change the situation of the eldest wife being suppressed.
"Okay." Zhuang Chengye glanced at him indifferently.
"It's the same for everyone." Zhuang Chengzheng took advantage and acted cute, "Then Weiyi, what do you think of us?"
Lu Weiyi glanced at the time and said, "It will take about four hours. Zhuang Mingxu's surgery will be over and everything will be in place within four hours. The crystal core will be yours."
He expressed the need to take Zhuang Mingxu into consideration, and was also preparing to sell one to the eldest wife later. At the same time, Zhuang Chengzheng was worried that Zhuang Mingxu might change the transaction, so he would deliver the jade within four hours.
As for whether Zhuang Chengye would stop him, that was not something he should consider.
After these words were spoken, both people in the hall looked thoughtful.
Zhuang Chengzheng stood up without hesitation, saying that he would go and prepare and asked where to trade.
"Let's just... stay here." Everyone in the villa was tired, and it wouldn't be worth it to get up and make a fuss again. They might as well just wait here for Zhuang Mingxu to come out after the operation. It would be the same if they "installed" him into his space.
As Zhuang Chengzheng left, Zhuang Chengye followed closely.
There were only a few people left at the door of the empty operating room.
Zhuang Mingwu sat alone at the edge, as if trying to force Lu Weiyi to change his mind with his eyes.
**
The operation lasted eight hours.
Before the operation was over, Zhuang Chengzheng brought the jade stones over and filled up half of the corridor.
The operation was over at five in the morning.
Dean replenished his superpowers six times, and his face was pale when Antonio carried him out.
"The nerves and blood vessels have been repaired temporarily, and the bones will be healed slowly. They can be repaired later. Once they have recovered, you need to come and check whether the repair is complete." Doctor Zhang looked at the pile of jade stones outside without any different colors, gave a few instructions, and asked, "Do you want to stay in the hospital for observation or go back directly? If you go back, I will arrange an ambulance and the price will be extra."
"Go straight back," Lu Weiyi said and signed.
With the help of Zhuang Mingxu's cover, all the jade stones were put into the space.
Ning Yuan and Zhuang Mingwu pushed the operating table, Antonio held Dean, and Liu Rui followed closely, and the group left the hospital early in the morning.
At six o'clock in the morning, Aunt Liu was already preparing breakfast.
Lin Tian and Liu Yang, who were keeping watch on the sofa, had not rested yet. Their eyes were bloodshot. They lifted Zhuang Mingxu off the bed and placed him in a room that had been prepared in advance.
"How was the operation?" Hearing the noise, Xu Sa and others went downstairs and asked.
"It went very smoothly." Lu Weiyi looked at Zhuang Mingwu who was looking around, "Let's take a break."
"I have something to say to my brother." Zhuang Mingwu glared at Lu Weiyi and squeezed into Zhuang Mingxu's room.
"What is he going to do?" Xu Sa asked when he saw the closed door.
"Go ahead and complain," Lu Weiyi sneered and went to meet Liu Ma who was looking over.
When Aunt Liu met his calm gaze, she suddenly felt as if everything was seen through. She immediately avoided him and returned to the kitchen.
"Where is he?" Lu Weiyi raised his chin towards the upstairs.
It is almost impossible to escape if you are in the same room with Brother Li.
**
In the bedroom, Zhuang Mingwu was indeed talking to Zhuang Mingxu about the plant crystal core.
"Look at what he is doing. Is this humane? He actually asked our two families to bid for the product, and the one with the highest bid wins? He is simply trampling on our family's face."
"It's too much that they don't consider your feelings at all. Our first branch can't defeat the third branch because we don't have high-level psychics. Otherwise, we would have to be checked and balanced by the third branch."
"Didn't you see how Third Grandpa was showing off in front of our grandfather? When has our grandfather ever suffered such a crime in his life? Now that we are old, we have actually put him in such a situation?"
"He confidently told everyone that you can't control him?"
"Brother, you really don't care?"
