The next morning, Wang Bin summoned You Hongfei and Li Xingping to his study and brought out some jade stones that he had acquired from Dezha. When the two men saw the jade stones, their eyes lit up, especially when they touched the imperial jade weighing over fifty kilograms. Their hands trembled slightly as they touched the jade.
"Wang Bin, these jade stones must be worth at least four or five billion, right?" Li Xingping asked excitedly.
"Four or five billion is just the price of the raw materials. Once they are made into finished products, the price will at least double!" You Hongfei said confidently.
"That's so exaggerated?" Wang Bin was also startled when he heard You Hongfei's words.
"It's no exaggeration at all. There are fewer and fewer jade mines in Myanmar now, and prices are rising steadily. If we can hold onto some stock, we can probably make even more money!" You Hongfei explained with a smile.
“There’s no need to stockpile inventory. You don’t need to worry about the goods at all. Just sell them as soon as possible. Also, we don’t have any jade processing masters yet. You should find someone to come and process these jade stones and put them on the shelves for sale as soon as possible!” Wang Bin said with a smile.
"As long as the source of goods is not a problem, I will start contacting jade masters right now!" You Hongfei perked up as soon as he heard this. What a joke! If he could sell these jade stones, he could become a billionaire. He had only been following Wang Bin for a short time, and the speed at which he was making money was frighteningly fast.
Wang Bin possesses the Post-Apocalyptic System, meaning that all the jade in the post-apocalyptic world is essentially his. Moreover, the territory in the post-apocalyptic world is ten times larger than that in the real world, and the jade mines are certainly more numerous, if not more than ten times, than in the real world. Therefore, he has no need to worry about the supply of jade.
You Hongfei and Li Xingping were full of energy. After finishing breakfast, they took a batch of ordinary jade stones to the processing workshop with the old soldier.
Wang Bin didn't go for a run in the morning. He had already contacted his mentor, Li Zhengguo, and was going to his place for breakfast. Li Zhengguo was overjoyed to hear that Wang Bin's parents were coming to visit, and urged them to hurry over.
He didn't rush over. Since it was late last night and You Hongfei and the others were there, the three of them could talk a lot. Now that only the three of them were left at home, they started chatting intimately.
As they talked, Wang Bin's mother brought up his marriage, and even hinted that he should hurry up and marry Li Ruman. Wang Bin was terrified when he heard this and said that he was only a junior in college and would consider these things after graduation.
After Wang Bin said that, the two elders realized that Wang Bin really wasn't that old, and they were starting to get a little anxious.
It turns out that Wang Bin has changed too quickly recently, and people were misled by the speed at which he made money and his suddenly mature personality.
"Xiao Bin, what does your master like? We should bring a gift since this is our first visit," asked the Queen Mother.
“Mom, my master likes antiques and calligraphy,” Wang Bin said with a smile.
"Ah, I've heard that antiques and calligraphy are incredibly valuable; we can't afford to give them away!" said the Queen Mother with difficulty.
"Mom, don't worry, I've already prepared it for you!" Wang Bin smiled and took out a jade Guanyin pendant carved from imperial jade from his pocket.
"Oh my, this jade looks like a fine piece of jade, it must be worth a lot of money!" the Queen Mother said excitedly, holding up the jade Guanyin pendant.
"It's not expensive, only ten or twenty million!" Wang Bin said dismissively.
"What? Ten or twenty million isn't expensive?" Upon hearing Wang Bin's words, not only was Wang's mother shocked, but even Wang's father jumped up in surprise.
"The market price is ten to twenty million, but this thing is processed by us, so it's not that expensive. The cost is estimated to be only four or five million!" In order not to put too much pressure on his parents, Wang Bin had no choice but to lower the price. Even so, the two elders felt a little bad about their son giving them such a heavy gift.
“Mom and Dad, Master has been very good to me. I don’t usually have a chance to repay Master, so please consider this as your way of repaying Master for me!” Wang Bin continued.
"Alright, then we'll help you deliver this jade Guanyin to your master!" the Queen Mother said with a smile.
"Mom and Dad, I've also prepared gifts for you." As he spoke, Wang Bin took out a pair of imperial jade bracelets and a pair of jade pendants and gave them to the two elders.
The two elders immediately recognized the jade's high price and refused to sell it, insisting that he take it to resell. This left Wang Bin both amused and exasperated. He had collected these items during the apocalypse at minimal cost, and he had plenty of them, so he had no shortage of goods to supply the shop.
Wang Bin spent a lot of time persuading the elderly couple to accept the jade. He then told them to wear it immediately, and upon hearing that the jade was good for their health, they put it on. However, Wang Bin also reminded them not to show these things to others, lest they attract unwanted attention. The elderly couple readily agreed, and the three of them then went to Li Zhengguo's place.
Since the Black Demon has been eliminated, the level of protection for Wang Bin has been reduced, so Li Ruman has also been given a break, but she is still catching up on sleep and hasn't gotten up yet.
Li Zhengguo was very enthusiastic. As soon as he saw Wang Bin's parents, he took the initiative to greet them. After exchanging pleasantries, he was led to the study and was given tea that his junior brother Yuan Qingzi had given him.
Wang Bin's parents, who don't usually drink tea, couldn't appreciate how good this tea was. However, when Wang Bin explained the tea's preciousness, they were shocked. They never expected that the tea they usually couldn't bear to drink would be brought out to entertain them. Only then did they truly realize how good Li Zhengguo was to his son.
Only then did they remember the gift they wanted to give Li Zhengguo, and they quickly took out the jade Guanyin pendant.
Li Zhengguo was a discerning person and could tell at a glance that the pendant was extraordinary. However, he did not refuse it. He just gave Wang Bin a meaningful look, knowing that his parents could not possibly afford such an expensive pendant.
Just before lunchtime, Li Ruman got up and was very surprised to see her grandfather's pendant. After asking, she learned that it was a gift from Wang Bin's parents, and she was filled with envy.
"Come here, Xiaoman, Auntie will give you this bracelet!" Seeing how much Li Ruman liked the pendant, Wang's mother simply took off one of her own bracelets and put it in Li Ruman's hand. She now regarded Li Ruman as her daughter-in-law, so she didn't feel bad about giving such an expensive gift.
"Ah, Auntie, this gift is too valuable, I can't accept it!" Li Ruman saw that the jade bracelet was worth at least forty or fifty million, how could she accept it?
“It’s alright, Xiao Bin gave me a pair, I’ll give you one, and I still have one!” As she spoke, Wang Mu showed one of her hands to Li Ruman.
"No, no, Auntie, this is really too expensive!" Although Li Ruman knew that her fourth brother was very rich, she was well-educated and would not be greedy for money. She refused to accept it no matter what.
"Xiaoman, you are Xiaobin's third sister. We are all family. Giving you a little something is nothing. Besides, you know that this is what Xiaobin does. It's really not worth much to him!" Mother Wang insisted that Li Ruman accept the gift.
Finally, Li Ruman glanced at her grandfather and saw him smile and nod at her before she accepted the gift.
