Chapter 133 The Secret of the Kirin Jade Pendant (Vote for more chapters)
He Zhilan shook his head when he heard this: "I have no prejudice in my heart, but it's probably not easy for a young girl who has not experienced much of the world to enter this circle."
Although her words were vague, Xu Youyou understood that she did not agree with her sister entering the entertainment industry because she was afraid that her sister would encounter bad things in the industry.
He Zhilan did not continue the topic, but said: "Ms. Xu, I came to thank you. My little sister is young and prone to getting into trouble. Thank you for helping her just now and preventing her from ruining her reputation."
Xu Youyou was also very polite and said, "You are so polite. It's just a small favor. Anyone who sees a little girl being bullied will help her."
He Zhilan's sister He Zhiting was sent by the He family to the Lin family exchange meeting. As a junior in the antique circle, she helped serve tea and water, and was not a real waiter. When she was bullied, her family naturally came to support her.
He Zhilan shook his head: "Miss Xu, you are too modest. There are so many people here today, and you are the only one who can help us. If you need any help from us sisters in the future, just ask."
Xu Youyou said casually: "I think little sister Zhiting is very suitable to enter the entertainment industry."
He Zhilan's smile froze on her face immediately. She didn't expect Xu Youyou to ask for a reward so soon.
But since it was his own sister, He Zhilan was unwilling to let her enter the entertainment industry.
Seeing that it was useless to use the favors of the He family to promise, He Zhilan said: "Miss Xu, my little sister has always been naughty, and her family has spoiled her to the point of being a mess. I won't let her cause trouble for you. I came here in a hurry today and only brought this thing. If Miss Xu likes it, you may keep it and play with it."
He Zhilan gave Xu Youyou a small red seal.
The seal is made of southern red agate with bright colors. There is a round-carved Vermilion Bird button on the top, and the seal text is the two words "Cong Yun" in positive relief.
If Xu Youyou didn't have basic seal identification skills, she would probably not be able to recognize who used this seal.
"If the gentleman in front knew about the Congyun Seal, I'm afraid he would spend all his money to buy it." Xu Youyou joked.
He Zhilan said helplessly, "It's true that nothing can be hidden from Miss Xu. I didn't believe them before when they said you had a keen eye. Now I know that I was ignorant. Miss Xu is really well-informed and can even recognize this thing."
Xu Youyou naturally couldn't say that the system was cheating, so she could only evade the question by saying, "I just happened to read some old files and found out the origin of this item."
The original owner of this small seal was none other than Emperor Qianlong, whom Xu Youyou had heard countless times that day.
He was nicknamed Zhang Zong because he loved to stamp seals randomly. He owned countless seals in his life, and this small seal happened to be recorded in the book.
It was precisely because of their acquaintance that Xu Youyou returned the seal to He Zhilan: "Ms. He, I just said it casually, and I didn't mean to force Miss Zhiting to enter the entertainment industry."
He Zhilan breathed a sigh of relief, but a hint of regret flashed in He Zhiting's eyes.
Seeing that Xu Youyou really didn't want the seal, He Zhilan had no choice but to take it back.
Xu Youyou thought with some amusement in her heart, there is a collector obsessed with Qianlong's old items in front, and there is an old man from the Qing Dynasty behind, and she didn't know if these two people would fight each other when the three Qianlong collections were auctioned.
He Zhilan felt guilty and didn't know how to repay Xu Youyou's favor for a moment. She glanced at her casually, but suddenly stopped and looked straight at the jade pendant hanging on Xu Youyou's bag.
"Ms. Xu, this jade pendant is... yours?" He Zhilan asked softly.
Xu Youyou nodded: "Miss He, is there something wrong with this jade pendant?"
This Qilin jade pendant was bought by Xu Youyou when she attended an auction for the first time. It was also a bargain-hunting task assigned by the system. Now, after so much time has passed, the system only allows Xu Youyou to carry the Qilin jade pendant with her, saying that one day she will meet a buyer for it.
He Zhilan said directly: "One hundred million, no, one hundred and ten million, are you selling it?"
Xu Youyou was stunned when she heard this. How could the buyer raise the price again? She had spent 12 million yuan to buy this jade pendant at the auction. Afterwards, she had asked relevant experts to appraise it. Although the water head of this jade pendant was okay, the estimated value was only 2 million yuan. It could be said that she had lost money.
Unexpectedly, it is now sold for ten times the price.
"Sell." Xu Youyou said without hesitation.
He Zhilan breathed a sigh of relief.
But Xu Youyou continued, "One hundred million will do. Miss He, please don't add to the friendship price of ten million."
He Zhilan didn't expect Xu Youyou to be so sharp.
One hundred million was her actual offer for the jade pendant.
The additional 10 million was to thank Xu Youyou for her previous help to He Zhiting.
He Zhilan thought that she owed Xu Youyou a favor, which she would never be able to repay in a short period of time. However, her mindset changed at this moment. After thinking for a moment, she took the initiative to say, "Miss Xu, if you think my disappointing sister is useful, feel free to use her. Use her like a dog."
Xu Youyou:?
He Zhiting:? Although He Zhiting saw that the elder sister's attitude suddenly changed 180 degrees and agreed to her entering the entertainment industry, he felt that what she said was not right? She just said that she loved him, why did she suddenly call him a dog?
In less than ten minutes, his value has depreciated so much?
Xu Youyou asked, "I want to sign Miss Zhiting, Miss He, are you really willing to do so?"
He Zhilan nodded vigorously and said, "I was reluctant before, but now I don't have any reluctance anymore."
Xu Youyou didn't understand and asked, "What do you mean?"
He Zhilan glanced at Lu Jingyao standing beside him obscurely.
Lu Jingyao didn't expect that he had anything to do with this. After a brief thought, he found an excuse to leave: "I saw an old friend and went to say hello to him."
After Lu Jingyao left, Xu Fang also stepped back a few meters with the babies in her arms.
At this moment, there were only Xu Youyou and the He sisters in this small world.
He Zhilan still didn't speak, but looked at He Zhiting.
"Me?" He Zhiting pointed at himself: "I will avoid it too?"
He Zhilan's eyes tell it all.
He Zhiting left with his mouth pursed.
He Zhilan explained: "Our He family is a family of antique collectors with a history of thousands of years. As early as the Eastern Han Dynasty, our He family ancestors were studying bronze ritual vessels from the Western Zhou Dynasty."
Xu Youyou took a look at the Qilin jade pendant. Her eyes were not blurry. It was a jade pendant, not a bronze artifact.
"The reason why our He family has been passed down for generations and has never been cut off is because of this Qilin Jade Pendant. This is a secret that only candidates for the head of the family can know."
"The Qilin Jade Pendant will help the He family find someone they can cling to..." He Zhilan coughed lightly and changed the subject: "It can help us find someone who is destined to cooperate with us for a win-win situation."
Xu Youyou: ...
He Zhilan's calm face showed a rare hint of mischief, and she said, "It's a new society now. We don't need to cling to others anymore. We are all partners. It's just that the destined people found by our He family always have smooth sailing, just like the lucky ones in novels."
"He Zhiting will never suffer any loss if he follows the destined person of the He family! She is the one who took advantage!"
