Chen Long and Jin Shanshan were acquaintances, and he knew that Jin Shanshan was the kind of person who wouldn't visit unless he needed something.
"Brother Chen, I've found the buyer for this thing you asked me to find last time! It's this Mr. Yang Lu! He's willing to pay ten billion for it!"
Jin Shanshan got straight to the point, pointing to the photo of the alchemy furnace in her hand and speaking to Chen Long.
She believed that Chen Long would be overjoyed upon hearing the news.
After all, the Chen family had suffered considerable losses due to failed investments.
That's why they insisted on selling this thing for a billion!
Actually, some people had already offered as much as 600 million, but the Chen family didn't agree!
Now that they have this billion, the Chen family can weather the crisis, and it's like they got it for free.
But what Chen Long said next surprised Jin Shanshan.
"Mr. Jin, that... that item is no longer sold by our Chen family. I'm sorry to have made you and your friend a wasted trip."
When Chen Long heard the amount of one billion, his eyes lit up.
But soon, his eyes dimmed, and then he said to Gilgamesh with great apology.
Upon hearing Chen Long's words, Yang Lu frowned. Could it be that he had made a wasted trip?
However, he didn't say anything because he believed that Gilgamesh would definitely be able to handle this matter!
"Brother Chen, has the item already been sold?! If it has, that's fine, just tell me who bought it! We've been friends for years, you wouldn't refuse, would you?!"
Just as Yang Lu had guessed, after hearing his words, Jin Shanshan smiled and said to Chen Long.
Her voice was soft and soothing to the ear.
"No, not really... The things are still at my Chen family's house... But..."
Chen Long hesitated, because he felt that even if he told Jin Shanshan the whole story, she probably wouldn't be able to help him much!
Hearing that the items were still at the Chen family's house, Jin Shanshan was immediately overjoyed. That made things much easier!
Immediately afterwards, Jin Shanshan pretended to be sad and said to Chen Long.
"Brother Chen, look, I've finally found a friend who's willing to accept me. I'm really going all out, even risking my reputation."
"It's really putting me in a difficult position if I don't have a reasonable excuse!"
Jin Shanshan said in a deliberately sad tone, and her expression, coupled with her sorrowful voice, made Chen Long feel a little overwhelmed.
"Mr. Jin, thank you so much. I had no other choice."
"The old man suddenly fell ill, and it was a very serious illness."
Chen Long knew that if he didn't give them a reasonable explanation today, he might lose Jin Shanshan as a friend!
She is indeed a good person; she has brought quite a few buyers over recently, so there's no need to hide anything from her!
"Um, what does this have to do with selling that thing!?"
Jin Shanshan was momentarily stunned after hearing Chen Long's words.
It seems there's no necessary connection between Mr. Chen's illness and selling antiques, right?
