Chapter 445 Blind Some People's Eyes
Xiao Lingtian was about to reach out to take the tray, but Su Nuan held his arm to stop him.
The two of them watched quietly. The tray fell to the ground, and a jade pendant was shaken out of the tray and broke into two pieces on the ground.
The room was originally filled with screams, but at this moment it became completely silent, with everyone staring at the jade pendant on the ground.
Su Nuan was the first to speak up, "Ouch, it's broken in two. Can it still be worth three hundred thousand taels?"
These words were like a thunderclap, startling countless birds and everyone began to whisper to each other.
The girl in the green dress frantically picked up the two jade pendants. She put them together and then apart several times, finally stamping her foot in despair, "It's impossible to fix it. This is three hundred thousand taels of silver!"
Bai Yanyan avoided his gaze and tried to slip away.
Wang Panpan shouted, "Catch her, she's trying to run away."
The door was immediately blocked by the waiters, but they didn't dare to go forward to arrest people.
A middle-aged man with a fair face and no beard walked out from the back hall. He looked around like a smiling Buddha and his eyes fell on the broken jade pendant.
Bai Yanyan actually fell to her knees and said in a trembling voice, "Boss Bai, it was her. It was Wang Panpan who pushed me and caused me to bump into her."
Boss Bai smiled slightly and said, "Hurry up, niece. You won't receive any red envelopes during this non-holiday season."
Bai Yanyan didn't dare to get up, tears welled up in her eyes.
Wang Panpan shrank back and stammered, "Boss Bai, I didn't mean it."
Boss Bai took a look at the jade pendant and said, "This is cold jade. The sun is scorching hot right now. You can each buy half and take it home to beat the heat."
"How about this, 150,000 taels each, do you have any objections?"
Bai Yanyan glared at Wang Panpan fiercely, "It's all your fault."
Wang Panpan was not to be outdone, "Didn't you just snatch the things from me?"
Boss Bai acted like a peacemaker and said, "Alright, alright, you two should get along and make money. Quarreling will only lead to loss of money. It would be much better to just get along from now on."
"I'll keep a record of this money first, and when the time comes, I'll ask your boss to come and discuss how to repay it."
Su Nuan looked over and saw that the broken jade pendant had been broken from a rectangle into two squares with smooth cut ends. She wondered if this shop was deliberately trying to scam her.
The color of the jade pendant is whitish, different from mine which is bluish. I don’t know which one is of better quality.
She whispered, "Is that Han Yu?"
Before Xiao Lingtian could answer, the people watching the fun started talking.
"That's real cold jade. It's icy cold in your hand. Even on such a hot day, you won't feel hot as long as you hold it."
Boss Bai had very sensitive ears. He looked at Su Nuan, smiled, and said, "Is this young lady questioning the quality of our Hanyu?"
"I happen to have another one with me. Why don't you take a look at it, young lady?"
As he spoke, he untied the jade pendant from his waist and placed it on the table in front of Su Nuan.
People who know the business will not accept jade from others, because if they don’t hold it firmly and it falls and gets damaged, they can’t explain it clearly.
Su Nuan did not touch the jade pendant, but placed her palm on it to feel it.
Finally she shook her head, "Not very good, give me something nice to look at."
Boss Bai didn't expect Su Nuan to be so cautious. He didn't say anything and took back the jade pendant with a smile.
"Come here, show this girl the good stuff in our shop."
The guy who was blocking the door moved it away, and the people in the shop left in a hurry, probably fearing that something else might happen.
Soon, waitresses came in with trays and placed them on the table in front of Su Nuan.
Su Nuan looked up and glanced around. Unexpectedly, most of the people who stayed to watch the fun were young women. Their eyes kept wandering over Xiao Lingtian.
Of course, there were also young men. Some of them were accompanying female companions, some had ulterior motives, and some were simply there to watch the fun without fear of death.
Su Nuan had some favorable impressions towards those people who were watching the fun, and said, "The three of you come over and sit down, and help me take a look at these things, okay?"
The three men looked somewhat similar. When they saw Su Nuan's enthusiastic invitation, they immediately ran over and sat down without any hesitation.
But the three men were very polite. They sat next to Xiao Lingtian and did not squeeze next to Su Nuan.
Xiao Lingtian's face darkened and he said coldly, "Who are you?"
The three men were fearless and the leader said, "My name is Yang Yang, my second brother is Yang Hai, my third brother is Yang Chuan, and we have a younger sister named Yang Yue. Look, she's over there."
Su Nuan looked over and saw a pretty girl who waved generously.
The four appear to be quadruplets, which is extremely rare.
She asked, "Are you quadruplets?"
Yang Yang nodded, "Yes, but my father said that I am the eldest and should take care of them, so I have to warm them in heaven."
Su Nuan asked curiously, "So your sister's name is Yang Yue, does that also mean you want the moonlight to illuminate you?"
Yang Yang shook his head, "No, my mother said my sister is a treasure, so let her shine a little, so we won't be afraid of losing her."
Su Nuan laughed. The mothers of these four people were very interesting.
She waved to Yang Yue, "Come here and help me take a look."
Yang Yue immediately walked over and sat down next to Su Nuan. She was very well-mannered. She bowed to Xiao Lingtian and stopped looking at him, which made Xiao Lingtian feel much more comfortable.
Su Nuan asked: "My name is Su Nuan, do you think these things are good?"
Yang Yue glanced at the things on the table and asked, "I wonder if Sister Nuannuan wants to wear it for fun or just to blind some people?"
Su Nuan chuckled. This was a good question. After thinking for a moment, she replied, "It might blind some people."
Yang Yue nodded, "Then this... this... this... all are fine, but one set will cost 100,000 taels of silver."
Su Nuan glanced sideways, "The ones you picked don't look very shiny."
Is there something wrong with the prices here?
Yang Yue said, "We produce gemstones here, so gemstones are the least valuable. But look at this set, it's inlaid with southern jade, and the pieces are large."
"This set is made of pearls. Although not as valuable as the ones you have on you, it is still considered top-notch headwear here."
"My mother prepared a pair of rice bead bracelets in my dowry, which are very valuable items."
Su Nuan said disdainfully, "Such a small pearl is valuable?"
Yang Yue said a little embarrassedly: "I'm sorry to make you laugh. We are indeed in short supply of pearls here. I heard that pearl powder is good for beauty and skin care, but no one is willing to grind the pearls into powder."
Su Nuan was carrying a large purse shoulder bag today. She reached into it and took out a box the size of a palm.
"I feel like I've known you for a long time today, so I'm giving this to you as a gift."
A charming voice said, "Hey, Yang Yue, where did you come from, poor relative? Why are you pretending to be so pretentious here?"
"I want to see what kind of present she can come up with."
"Don't tell me you rented it from Wanbao Pavilion? If they come looking for it, they'll definitely come after you."
