Yuan Tingchuan remained silent, seemingly pondering the stone gambler's judgment, when he heard someone behind him shouting exaggeratedly, "Oh, such a big treasure! I must buy it back, cut it out completely, and put it in the pond in the yard. It must be very beautiful!"
Everyone had black lines on their heads. Which idiot was talking nonsense?
Such top-quality jadeite should be properly collected even if it is unprocessed. What's the point of throwing it into the pond in the yard?
Du Ruo looked at the man wearing a floral shirt, a gold bow tie and a gold watch, who looked like a golden butterfly. A smile flashed in her eyes.
Seeing that Yuan Tingchuan still had a cold face, Assistant Bai smiled and greeted him, "Young Master Ling is here?"
The man ignored him and jumped up and down around the raw material. He looked at it for a long time and scratched his head. He turned around and saw Du Ruo, and his eyes lit up.
He pulled Du Ruo's sleeve and said, "Beauty's luck is always good. Tell me quickly, can I gamble on this piece of raw material?"
Everyone present was speechless. This was something worth hundreds of millions, how could he be so careless? Didn't he bring a stone gambler with him?
The same opening line as in the previous life made Du Ruo laugh. She glanced at this "old friend" and said half-seriously, "I don't think it's a good idea."
The man blinked, turned around, pointed at the "big pear" and asked, "Can I eat this?"
Du Ruo also blinked and said, "It should taste pretty good."
The man said happily, "Then I'll buy this big pear. I don't need to cut it up. I can just throw it into the pond and let it soak for a hundred years."
The way people looked at him was beyond words. He was definitely a fool with a lot of money. Some people had a golden light flashing in their eyes, and they were ready to go up and test his depth.
The smile in Du Ruo's eyes became even more intense. Her old friend was a master at pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger. Take the third branch of the Ling family for example. More than a dozen descendants were fighting for the position, but in the end, Ling Yun was the one who came to power, which surprised everyone.
Ling Yun was already directing his assistant to bargain, looking determined to overcome this "big pressure".
He didn't care and waved at the cold-faced Yuan Tingchuan, saying, "I understand the first-come, first-served rule. I'll give that big thing to you. I just want this big pear."
Yuan Tingchuan gritted his teeth. The third son of the Ling family was just out of tune.
Ling Yun continued to talk nonsense: "High-quality jade is like a beauty. So we should listen to the beauty. We can never go wrong. By the way, beauty, I fell in love with you at first sight. I haven't even asked for your name yet."
Du Ruo smiled and said, "I am Du Ruo."
Ling Yun opened his mouth in surprise: "A beautiful woman's name is so beautiful, Du Ruo? I'll call you Ruoruo, okay? You see I listen to you so much, how about we be friends?"
Du Ruo said meaningfully, "Do you really listen to me?"
A gleam flashed in Ling Yun's eyes, and he said with a smile: "Yes, I will listen to everything."
Du Ruo smiled. Ling Yun said that he would listen to her, then he waved his hand and decided to buy the "big pear". In fact, he should have done his homework a long time ago and had made up his mind, so he went with the flow.
Ling Yun looked at Du Ruo's smiling face and a smile flashed in his eyes. This beauty was interesting and very much to his liking.
Special Assistant Bai came over and said to Du Ruo respectfully, "Mr. Yuan would like to ask Ms. Du to come over. He has something important to discuss with you."
Du Ruo nodded and was about to walk over when Ling Yun said with a smile, "We are friends now. I'll go with you."
Assistant Bai frowned. Isn't this against the rules?
He looked back at Mr. Yuan and did not stop him.
Yuan Tingchuan said to Du Ruo, "I have great confidence in Ms. Du's abilities. I would like to invite you to temporarily join the Yuan team as my chief consultant. The minimum bet is two million. For every jadeite that is won in a bet, I will pay Ms. Du a 10% commission based on the jadeite's price."
This is a sky-high price. With the strength of the Yuan Group, the raw materials purchased must be worth hundreds of millions. Even if one-third of it is jade, the commission may be tens of millions according to the value of jade.
This kind of contract is usually signed by a big shot in the industry. Only those with decades of experience in gambling on stones and outstanding achievements in the past are qualified. So everyone looked at Du Ruo with a hint of surprise.
Ling Yun also looked at Du Ruo in surprise. Is this beauty extraordinary?
Anyone who doesn't take advantage of a good opportunity is a bastard. Although Du Ruo can also win a high-priced jadeite by gambling, it is better to lean on a big tree for shade. With the strong financial resources of the Yuan family, perhaps her gains will be even greater.
Of course, the one that made the most profit was the Yuan Group. There was nothing they could do about it, because they were just a small shrimp and they were the big sharks.
Du Ruo thought for a while before nodding in agreement.
There was a hint of deep meaning in Yuan Tingchuan's eyes. He had painted a big picture, but in fact, he relied entirely on Du Ruo's own ability to make money.
If Du Ruo was just a show-off, Yuan Tingchuan's loss would only be two million, which is nothing.
But if she is a person with real ability, the benefits she brings to the Yuan family will be immeasurable.
Since she agreed, Yuan Tingchuan asked bluntly, "Excuse me, Ms. Du, can I gamble on this piece of raw material?"
Several of Yuan's stone gamblers looked at her nervously. They disapproved of Du Ruo in their hearts, but Mr. Yuan's power was growing day by day, so they didn't dare to show it.
Du Ruo said: "The risk is huge. As the saying goes, we are not afraid of big cracks, but small streaks. We can easily observe the direction of large cracks, but streaks, whether deep or shallow, numerous or few, are difficult to understand."
What she said was all well-known in the industry. One of the Yuan family's stone gamblers couldn't help but say, "However, risks often come with opportunities. We have already observed that the texture of this strand is different. It should be a young strand, and it will not have much impact on the raw material."
Du Ruo stepped forward and said, "The crack is heading this way. If it spreads this way, the consequences will be disastrous. The entire casino could even fail."
A woman behind him shouted, "What do you know? The crack and the streak aren't connected, they don't hinder anything at all. You're relying on your looks to be like a vixen, trying to seduce men. Do you have any shame?"
Du Ruo looked back and saw that the girl coming was dressed in exquisite and valuable clothes. The imperial green jade jewelry on her body was priceless. She had willow-shaped eyebrows and phoenix eyes. There was a sharp look between her eyebrows and a hint of irritability.
This is a very typical, spoiled and arrogant rich girl.
She was followed by a handsome man with sharp eyebrows and phoenix eyes. He had a smile on his face and made people like him at first sight. He was very amiable. It was Han Ming.
