Chapter 215: Is your family still short of relatives?
Du Anrao blinked, somewhat surprised by Ms. Qiu's inexplicably serious attitude: "You go ahead."
"Your raw stone is very rare. After making a pair of bracelets, a jade pendant, and two hanging plaques, there will be some scraps left. Although the value of these materials is not as high as those finished products, they can still be used and polished into small pieces to be inlaid on other jewelry."
Duanrao was stunned when he heard her say that.
[It can be done this way! If you think about it carefully, it is not impossible. This is a raw stone with spiritual essence. Even if you don't consider the appearance, it is good for the body to grind it into glass beads and wear it on your body. ]
Of course, this benefit cannot be compared with the bracelet and jade pendant she was going to give to Mr. and Mrs. Du Desheng, but no matter how small a mosquito is, it is still meat, right?
[If that's the case, I'll ask Aunt Qiu to help me out and maybe I'll have something to give as a thank-you gift to my relatives and friends during the Chinese New Year.]
Jiang Changbin: "!!!" This glass bead is not bad, is it an ordinary glass bead? Definitely not!
That is a real treasure that can protect your health and prolong your life. If it is released, those elderly group bosses will fight over it!
My little cousin actually wanted to give them this thing as a New Year gift, and give each of them one. This is really...
Xi Jingyue: “…” Suddenly I felt a little jealous of the Du family’s relatives. Does your family still lack relatives?
"Are you going to prepare these small items..."
"If it's convenient, I hope you can sell these finished products in our store after they are made. Or, we can directly buy these materials from you."
Duanrao touched his nose and said awkwardly: "I'm sorry, logically I shouldn't refuse you on this matter. But Aunt Qiu, you may not know that in order to shoot the two plots of land tonight, my parents raised money for me in the family group, and many uncles, aunts, brothers and sisters donated generously. They helped me in times of need, and I can't be so conscienceless..."
Ms. Qiu was slightly startled, but after a moment's thought, she understood Duan Rao's plan: "Are you planning to give these to them as gifts?"
"……Um."
"In this case, I won't force you to do anything."
Ms. Qiu was so considerate that Du Anrao felt even more embarrassed.
I borrowed money from others and asked them to help me with the work, but when the work was done I couldn't even agree to their small request of selling the finished jewelry in the store. It was really inhumane.
"Aunt Qiu and Mr. Qiu also helped tonight. I will give you a gift later."
"Then I'll wait and see."
Ms. Qiu thought that the gifts Duanrao mentioned were similar to those she was going to give to her relatives, and she really didn't care about them.
Although it was a pity that the finished products could not be put on sale in the store, there were quite a few people watching when Duanrao was cutting the stone today. In order to reject those who tried to buy the raw stone, Duanrao brought out the name of Master Du Jiu.
After today, the news that a Fu Lu Shou Xi jadeite rough stone worth hundreds of millions of dollars was found among the rough materials sold by Duobao Pavilion Auction House, and that the finished jewelry made from this rough stone will become Mr. Du Jiu's wedding gift will spread throughout the upper class circles of City B at a very fast speed.
When Mr. Du Jiu gets married, the pair of glittering bracelets will appear, and their Ya Yu family will also be able to take advantage of the celebrity popularity.
Not to mention, because of Duan Rao tonight, they were also noted by the Wen father and son.
Regardless of whether Duanrao will inherit Duobao Pavilion in the future, just based on this relationship, their future cooperation with the Wen family will not be too tortuous. This is not something that can be accomplished by spending a mere 100 million yuan.
The two had originally come to City B to further develop the market here, but now they had accidentally discovered a better and more effective way to increase their popularity. Even if Duan Rao didn't give them any gifts, strictly speaking they had made a profit.
Du Anrao didn't understand the twists and turns here. After seeing off the mother and son of the Qiu family, he let out a long sigh and turned around to meet Xi Jingyue's inexplicably complicated expression.
"Mr. Xi, what are you doing..."
"Aren't you afraid?"
Duan Rao was full of questions: "What are you afraid of?"
"Twenty years ago, before you were born, your master already knew that you would come to this place and enter this auction. He even predicted that you would bid for that stone, and left this auction house and that stone for you in advance."
"Isn't this good?"
Xi Jingyue was stunned: "It's not that it's bad, but...aren't you afraid? It's like your life has been arranged by someone long ago..."
Although I knew nothing about this beforehand and the other party never gave me any hints or reminders, I still ended up following the established track step by step as the other party had expected.
It was as if there was an invisible big hand secretly pushing all of this, and they were all just puppets in the hands of the other party. No matter how hard they struggled, they could not escape the predetermined outcome or even... a dead end.
Duan Rao was slightly stunned. When Mr. Wen said those words just now, she had thought about these things, but...
"I'm not afraid. Destiny has its own destiny, but it is also not immutable. I know what I want and what I'm doing, so I'm not afraid."
"If this fate makes me happy, I will follow it, but if it makes me unhappy, I can go against it."
Just as originally arranged in the book written by her fourth sister, her fate was to be killed by rumors and abuse from Wang Xuehe's parents, but she did not die.
Not only did he not die, he also met his master, grew up safely, found his family, and changed his family's predetermined fate.
From this we can see that these so-called predetermined destinies are not unchangeable.
She doesn't care about the past, nor does she care about the so-called future. She only cares about the present, and that she and her loved ones are healthy and happy, away from disputes and harm.
Xi Jingyue looked at Du Anrao's slightly childish face and found that he seemed to have underestimated her because of her age.
Even though Duanrao repeatedly said that her master was unreliable, it was undeniable that he raised her well, and that she had her own opinions and ideas, and was brave and determined.
"It's good that you know what's going on." Xi Jingyue let out a long sigh and changed the subject. "Well, I have something to ask of you."
"Beg me?" Duan Rao was surprised. "What's the matter?"
"Your Fu Lu Shou Xi raw stone can be made into a pair of bracelets and a jade pendant, as well as two jade pendants. People often say that jade can nourish people. My grandparents are old and their health has not been very good, so I was thinking if you could give me the two pendants."
"sure."
"If it's inconvenient...what, you just said..." Duan Rao's straightforwardness caught Xi Jingyue off guard.
"I said yes." Duanrao smiled, without showing any reluctance.
[There is a bigger one underneath anyway, so it doesn't matter if I give those two small jade tablets to Mr. Xi.]
Xi Jingyue and Jiang Changbin: What the hell?!
