Chapter 252 He took advantage after all
Duan Rao groaned, "That stone is much bigger than the previous one. It should be able to make more jewelry, right?"
"Indeed, this piece of jade is several times larger than the previous one. With such a large piece of raw stone, the utilization rate will be greatly improved. Conservatively speaking, you should be able to make more than ten or even twenty pieces of jewelry."
Duan Rao's eyes lit up: "In that case, you guys can make the arrangements. I just want to keep one copy for my parents, brothers and sisters as gifts, and for the rest, Aunt Qiu and Manager Qiu can keep one copy each."
The two were stunned: "We both...can keep one each?"
Duan Rao nodded, his eyes rolled, and after thinking for a while, he decided to hint at the two people: "Although jade is buried in the soil, it absorbs the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. It is a gift from nature to mankind. It is said that jade can nourish people, especially this kind of rare jade, which is hard to come by. If you can wear it all the time, it will be beneficial in all aspects."
The mother and son of the Qiu family were slightly stunned. They have been dealing with jade and precious stones for many years, so how could they not understand the ins and outs here?
If someone else said this, it would be fine. They would probably just laugh it off and not take it to heart.
But the person who said this was Du Anrao. Both stones were opened by her. Moreover, when they saw the Zhengyang Green Ice Jadeite rough stone, they made some guesses and thought that these two precious rough stones were most likely from the same piece of rough material.
Although it sounds ridiculous, they just have this intuition that any strange thing will become reasonable when put together with Duan Rao.
The appearance of these two raw stones was already strange. Could it be that as the person in front of me said, in addition to being exquisite and valuable, they also have other effects? If that were the case...
The mother and son of the Qiu family were shocked, and couldn't help showing a little surprise and excitement on their faces.
Especially Ms. Qiu, after realizing that the two raw stones from Duanrao might not be just ordinary raw stones, she suddenly remembered that several masters who were responsible for the polishing and production of the Fu Lu Shou Xi raw stones had talked about it jokingly to her a few days ago.
Logically speaking, they should be very tired after working overtime for several days in a row and rotating overtime day and night. But for some reason, after doing so much work and working overtime for such a long time, they not only did not feel tired at all, but instead became more and more excited as they worked, without any aftereffects of staying up late.
Ms. Qiu listened to several people's discussions at the time and thought that these old masters had not seen such rare and good stuff for a long time, and they forgot their tiredness for a while.
Now thinking back, she felt that their behavior just confirmed her thoughts. She almost couldn't contain her excitement and lost her composure on the spot.
After finally controlling his emotions, he thought of the Fu Lu Shou Xi plaque that was bought for 500 million. Could it be that Mr. Xi had known that these two stones were not ordinary, so he took the initiative and spent a huge amount of money to reserve the two plaques in advance...
Ms. Qiu glanced at Xi Jingyue secretly with a complicated expression. It turned out that following An An would bring her good fortune. In the end, this guy took advantage of the young girl.
Xi Jingyue noticed the changes in the expressions of the mother and son of the Qiu family. His eyes flickered slightly, and he sighed that it was easy to talk to smart people. They would understand with just a little hint, which saved him a lot of trouble.
I never thought about it. I was just about to say something to give the two of them some advice, telling them that although it was okay for them to know, it would be better for them to keep the matter to themselves.
Before he could say anything, he received an indescribable look from Ms. Qiu.
Xi Jingyue: “???”
Glancing at the person who almost ate alone, Ms. Qiu thought for a moment and nodded, "Since it is your kindness, An An, we mother and son will accept it. When the finished product is made, I will keep a bracelet and a Guanyin Buddha amulet to carry with me. As a thank you gift, An An, all the handling fees for the finished products made from these two stones will be borne by Ji Chen and I, and you don't have to pay anything else."
Ms. Qiu wanted to give her the 100 million yuan that they had previously lent to Du Anrao, but after Du Anrao recovered most of the funds, he immediately returned all the borrowed money, including the 100 million yuan they had lent her.
Now all Ms. Qiu can think of is to help Duanrao reduce the fees in this regard without worrying about being rejected.
As expected, Du Anrao thought for a moment after hearing her say this, then nodded and agreed: "Thank you, Aunt Qiu!"
"You're welcome. I'm afraid these jewels will have to be sent to you in batches. I wonder what will happen then..."
Du Anrao knew that Ms. Qiu was asking where to send the finished jewelry. He touched his chin and thought for a while before saying, "I will return to my hometown after attending my uncle's wedding. After you finish the jewelry, just mail it to my house.
"Well, it's not long before the Chinese New Year. Can you ask the company's craftsmen to help rush the work and make a batch of simpler items so that I can give them as gifts during the Chinese New Year? As for the overtime fee, it can be calculated separately and I can pay for it myself."
Ms. Qiu couldn't help laughing when she heard her say that: "Why do you need to pay this money? In their line of work, working overtime is common, and it's not just for you. The company has a complete overtime system and benefits, so you don't have to worry about this. As for mailing..."
Ms. Qiu turned her head and looked at her son. "It's not safe to send jewelry directly by mail, especially such valuable treasures. It would be a big deal if they were lost. How about this? Ji Chen and I will visit branches in various places at the end of each year. At that time, we will put your hometown at the back of the list and have him deliver it to you personally."
"Will this be too much trouble for Manager Qiu?"
"No, no, it's just something I can do on the way. Why would I bother him?"
Qiu Jichen: “…” Although this is the truth, mom, you don’t have to dislike me so much. I always feel that Miss Du is more like your biological daughter than me!
Fortunately, Ms. Qiu didn't know what he was thinking, otherwise she would have confirmed his guess. How good is Miss Du? As long as I treat her a little better, even if I can't eat meat, at least I can have some soup.
It's good enough that this debt collector doesn't come back to eat my flesh, but I can still hope to drink his soup? That's wishful thinking!
The matter was settled, and Du Anrao and Xi Jingyue had a good meal with the Qiu mother and son without any psychological burden.
As soon as he walked out of the hotel and got into Xi Jingyue's car, Du Anrao couldn't wait to find the infinite flow novel related to Liu Tianyuan and read it carefully, trying to find more useful information in it to help himself and his relatives avoid this messy and unreasonable world rules.
Xi Jingyue saw through it but didn't say anything. He quietly started turning the steering wheel to take a longer route, while frantically calculating in his mind which roads in City B were the most congested at this time, so that he could finish eating the melon before sending the person home!
