After leaving the antique shop, the cat was surrounded by curious passersby for a while. She then slipped into a large market stall and managed to shake them off.
Before she could go to find Bai Jiang, Bai Jiang appeared on his own, carrying a large bag full of walnuts.
I was delayed by that program, and now it's already noon.
It's impossible to keep picking up bargains here. Cat looked at Bai Jiang and said, "Take me to that more reliable place you mentioned."
General Bai nodded.
The two of them drove off in their respective cars, heading straight to their destination.
Cat came here today to practice and find a similar item to use for tomorrow's charity auction, but she hasn't found one yet.
The so-called "appraisal" in that "Masters Among the People" program was just a joke; it was all just for fun.
True antique connoisseurs do not authenticate antiques in public; they know best in their own hearts whether something is real or fake.
If you encounter the Eight Gates, then it goes without saying that they will just quote a price, just like in the Eight Gates market, where they blindly give prices.
Today, I brought Bai Jiang along, and I was hoping to give him some pointers, so I patiently spent another afternoon shopping with him.
When it came time to pay, Maomao took the wrong card. She usually uses the supplementary card that Jiuyunchi gave her for purchases, but this time she accidentally pulled out a different card, though the payment was still successful.
Almost simultaneously, Maomao received a text message notification of a transaction: 200,000 yuan spent, balance... Maomao counted the zeros... 199.8 million?
The cat looked at Bai Jiang with a bit of surprise!
This card contained the money Bai Jiang had given her for car repairs. She had kept it in her wallet without touching it, and it actually contained 200 million.
"General Bai, are you this rich too?" Cat asked.
Bai Jiang seemed to blush slightly. "Not much, this is all the wealth I have."
The cat said very honestly, "That's a lot!"
Then she added, "For this two hundred million, I'll also give you one percent of Qinghong Company's shares, as an investment."
Bai Jiang wanted to say no, but it seemed that the cat had already ended the topic, so Bai Jiang gave up.
In fact, even if Qinghong Company's shares are only one percent, they may far exceed two hundred million in the future.
...
That evening, at the Jiu family home.
The cat sat on the thick carpet, and the walnuts that had been bought during the day were dumped on the coffee table.
She held up half an inverted triangle with one hand in front of her eyes, while using the other hand to pick through the walnuts.
Jiu Nanxun and Jiu Yebai stood on either side of the camera, each holding a special measuring tape. Whenever the cat picked out a pair, they would measure them carefully.
As time went on, the two became increasingly shocked! They were practically kneeling before the cat!
After a long time, the cat finally paired up all the walnuts, a total of one hundred and eighty-one pairs.
Kuanan Kaoru murmured, "Sister, your skill is too overpowered! Can I apply to join the sect? This Mirror Flower Water Moon move is a one-trick pony that can get you through anything!"
Although Jiu Yebai was also moved, he said, "Each of the Eight Gates has its own unique skills. Even if it's 'Mirror Flower Water Moon,' no one else from the Yao Gate can do it to this extent. Besides, you are already a member of the Jing Gate, so you absolutely cannot go to the Yao Gate."
Jiu Nanxun said, "Then doesn't my sister also serve as the sect leader of Yaomen?"
Jiu Yebai glanced at her and said, "If you're capable enough to be the sect leader, no one's stopping you."
Kunan Kaoru immediately deflated, "Then forget it..."
Sitting on the sofa, Jiu Yunchi finally asked, "Why did you buy so many walnuts?"
Jiu Nanxun said, "Big brother, is there even a question? It's about making money! They're all matched up! 18,000 can be resold for at least ten times the original price!"
Jiu Yunchi was still looking at the cat.
The cat slowly shook its head. "Ten times isn't enough."
If it was only ten times the price, it wasn't worth it for her to listen to that stall owner brag for an hour and waste the whole day!
"Sister, aren't you going to resell it?" Ku Nanxun asked.
Cat looked at the three of them, stretched, and smiled mysteriously, "Hehe, you'll find out tomorrow."
...
The next day.
Cat arrived at the hotel in Fengshi at 2 PM.
Shan Xingwen was already waiting for her.
Cat changed into the clothes Shan Xingwen had prepared for her. Standing in front of the mirror, she said, "Hmm, this outfit seems a little different."
In fact, they are completely different!
Shan Xingwen's designs have always been simple and elegant. He uses the most concise designs, the most meticulous tailoring, and the most luxurious fabrics. He himself said that even the fabric and needlework are made by hand. His designs are something that only he can make in this world.
Many internationally renowned designers have been willing to lower themselves to buy fabrics from Shan Xingwen, but he has never sold them. In his words, he neither lacks the money nor wants to make that kind of money.
Even now, many designers still fondly remember his fabrics.
Although Shan Xingwen has never made a mistake in designing clothes and styling for her, the style of this outfit... has changed a lot!
The overall color scheme is blue and white, with a Western-style trailing skirt combined with pure oriental moon white. The hem of the skirt is made into a wave-like puff shape, so when you walk, the hem looks like slowly moving waves.
Wearing it on a cat, it looks ethereal and otherworldly.
This otherworldly feeling reminded the cat of the fairies in the Jade Pool.
“You’ve discovered it,” Shan Xingwen said.
The cat looked at him and asked, "Am I supposed to dress so flashy today?"
When this skirt is worn, it takes up the space of five people for one person to walk in.
Shan Xingwen smiled and said, "The Muyue Charity Gala has always been an occasion for female stars to compete for attention. In recent years, it has completely overshadowed the charity itself. Even if you dress modestly, people will still criticize you for being pretentious. Dressing like this is actually better."
But you can rest assured, the cameras won't be able to shoot you badly tomorrow.
The cat nodded.
At this moment, Shan Xingwen said again, "I'm preparing for a ten-year show, and this dress is one of the styles. You can wear it out to warm up the atmosphere for me... By the way, I've reserved you as the lead model for my show, so you'd better make time for me."
Cat nodded again, "Okay, go tell Lanfeng."
...
At 8 p.m., Maomao and Lanfeng went to the banquet together.
Cat has already experienced the dazzling night in Fengshi. As soon as she got out of the car, she was greeted by countless flashes of light, and all she could see was white.
However, she still smiled calmly.
Bodyguards blocked the overly enthusiastic photographers in front, while the cat walked unhurriedly on the red carpet.
Suddenly, several cars drove up and took away a group of photographers; they seemed to be interested in that area as well!
Cat turned around and was surprised to see Mu Jin and Ye Mingshi! Even Jiu Yunchi was there!
