Chapter 2563: Dinner
Two jades put together for auction? Those who wanted them immediately got excited.
As soon as Gu Ning finished speaking, everyone started bidding.
"Eleven million."
"Twelve million."
"Thirteen million."
“······”
Zhao Rong was no longer calm. After thinking about it, he could not care less, so he started bidding: "Eighteen million"
Zhao Rong was worried that Gu Ning would bear a grudge and not sell it to him, so while bidding, he secretly glanced at Gu Ning to see how she would react.
However, Gu Ning was not so petty. Although he was unhappy with Zhao Rong, he would not hold a grudge against him.
Besides, this is a profitable business, why wouldn't she buy it? She's not a foreigner.
If it were a foreigner, she wouldn't sell it.
However, sometimes God always likes to sing the opposite tune to people. Just a few seconds after Gu Ning thought this, he heard a male voice with an awkward accent shouting, "Twenty-five million."
The accent of this voice is obviously not that of the people from the United Kingdom of Dipudongxia, but more like that of the Japanese.
The reason why Gu Ning guessed that the other party was a Japanese, not a person from the Kingdom of South Korea, was because each country had a different accent when speaking the language of the United Kingdom of East Asia, and Gu Ning felt that the other party's accent was that of a person from the Kingdom of East Japan.
Gu Ning couldn't help but be speechless. Just when he was thinking about not selling it to a foreigner, a foreigner showed up to bid.
But for the time being, Gu Ning did not stop it, because in the end it might not be this foreigner who got it. If it was really this foreigner who got it, Gu Ning would stop it again.
"Thirty-four million..."
In the end, the price of Gu Ning's two jades was bid up to 34 million. The price had reached its peak and he wouldn't make much more if he bid any more, so no one followed suit.
Because the last person to bid was a Chinese, Gu Ning didn't say anything and just went ahead with the deal.
"Mr. Kang, you can transfer the money from the raw material to my card after deducting the stone cutting fee." While telling the person she was doing business with the card number, Gu Ning also gave Kang Shaojie one of her own account cards.
Although she won and earned tens of millions, the few thousand yuan for raw materials was nothing, but since it was agreed upon, she had to pay it even if it was only a few hundred yuan.
It’s not that she is stingy, but the rules are what they should be. If she doesn’t want to do that, it would be trampling on Kang Shaojie’s dignity.
"Okay." Kang Shaojie took the card handed over by Gu Ning readily. The idea of bad debts had never occurred to him. Not to mention thousands or tens of thousands, even if it was tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands, as long as he said it, he would admit it.
Since they are all VIP customers of the bank, the transfer will arrive in a few minutes.
After the transaction was completed, it was almost two o'clock in the afternoon. Gu Ning and Baili Zongxue had not eaten yet, so they didn't plan to watch it anymore and went to eat first.
"Then Mr. Kang, I'll take my leave first." Gu Ning and Kang Shaojie said politely.
"Ms. Gu, if you don't mind, let me, Kang, treat you to a meal! Don't worry, Miss Gu, I have no ill intentions. I just saw that you are good at gambling on stones and want to make friends with you." Kang Shaojie said with a very sincere attitude, because he really thought so.
"Okay!" Gu Ning did not refuse, no matter whether Kang Shaojie said it was true or false, or if he had other purposes.
Because Gu Ning felt that if he wanted to gain a foothold in Rui City, he must know more about these raw material developers, and if he wanted to know more about these raw material developers, he had to contact them directly.
The Kang family is one of the three largest raw material developers in Rui City, and their reputation is neither good nor bad.
Of course, Gu Ning would not use the comments of some people on the Internet to judge whether a person or a family is good or not, unless he saw bad things done by this person or this family.
Besides, netizens’ comments on the Kang family are neither good nor bad, not bad at all.
Moreover, when she met Kang Shaojie, she didn't feel that there was anything wrong with him. On the contrary, Kang Shaojie looked very gentlemanly, and it was not an act, but came from his bones.
Kang Shaojie was still worried that Gu Ning would not agree! Seeing that Gu Ning agreed, he was also happy in his heart. He immediately made a gesture of invitation to Gu Ning, and then they went out together.
Zhao Rong was unhappy when he saw Gu Ning and Kang Shaojie leaving. He originally wanted Kang Shaojie and Gu Ning to fight against each other, but he didn't want them to become friends...
"I wonder where Miss Gu is from!" Kang Shaojie asked. He was not trying to find out Gu Ning's information on purpose, he was just asking casually.
"The capital." Gu Ning responded, not caring anymore.
"Ms. Gu, did you learn the knowledge about gambling on stones from your family elders?" Kang Shaojie asked.
"I learned it from my master." Gu Ning said.
"So that's how it is! Miss Gu's master must be a great expert in gambling on stones! Only he could have such an outstanding disciple like you." Kang Shaojie said.
"Yes," Gu Ning responded.
Kang Shaojie did not ask any more questions in this regard, because asking would seem like prying.
Gu Ning didn't think there was anything wrong with this question; it was mainly a matter of attitude.
Kang Shaojie's attitude was very positive, without any sense of prying, but whether he was prying or just asking casually, that was unknown. However, before Gu Ning discovered and felt hostility, she would still be polite to him.
"By the way, what is the name of Miss Gu's friend?" Kang Shaojie asked. He had talked so much with Gu Ning, and it would seem like he was neglecting her if he didn't greet her friend.
"This is my friend, his last name is Baili." Gu Ning said, only saying the last name and not the given name.
"Hello, Miss Baili." Kang Shaojie and Baili Zongxue greeted.
"Hello, Mr. Kang." Baili Zongxue also responded politely.
There are many high-end restaurants and hotels outside the raw material market. People who usually come here to buy raw materials are all people of status, so of course they stay in good places.
In order not to neglect Gu Ning, Kang Shaojie invited Gu Ning to the best restaurant nearby.
Although he was the young master of the Kang family in Rui City, and Gu Ning was just a little girl whose identity was unknown, but judging from her gambling stone skills and temperament, Kang Shaojie was sure that Gu Ning's background must be extraordinary.
Of course, he didn't want to make friends with Gu Ning just because he knew that Gu Ning's identity was not simple. He wanted to make friends with Gu Ning just because of gambling on stones.
"Ms. Gu and Miss Baili, just order whatever you want to eat. Don't be polite to me." Kang Shaojie said with a generous attitude rather than showing off.
"Then we won't be polite." Gu Ning said. She didn't intend to be polite. After all, they were hungry now, and although their stomachs were not small, how much could they eat with just two of them?
If Kang Shaojie cared about it, then he would be really stingy.
