Chapter 446 It takes a long time to buy one piece!

Mrs. Wei felt a little sad. On the way back, she told Yu Yongbai: "... Miss Gong has a hard time. Our business doesn't have to compete with her. Don't make things difficult for her in the future."

Yu Yongbai had a complicated expression, but he finally sighed and replied, "Grandma, I understand."

On that day, Yu Yongbai instructed his shop managers that if they came across orders from the Gong family business in the future, they should give way if possible and not pursue them closely.

One of the shopkeepers was a little puzzled: "Boss, don't we have some grudges with the Gong family business?"

Yu Yongbai waved his hands and said, "It's okay. Our business is already on the right track now, so it's okay to give up some of the profits."

The shopkeeper was extremely surprised, but he believed that Yu Yongbai's decision would not be wrong. He bowed respectfully and answered yes.

However, when he had given instructions to his shopkeeper and was about to leave, he saw Zhou Yunyi bringing a pitiful-looking girl into the Treasure Pavilion.

Yu Yongbai paused and said hello to Zhou Yunyi meaningfully: "Hey, buddy, are you here to buy warm jade from the Treasure Pavilion?"

When Zhou Yunyi saw that it was Yu Yongbai, his expression changed: "Why are you here!"

Yu Yongbai chuckled: "This Treasure House is open for business, anyone can come and buy things. Am I weird here?"

Zhou Yunyi glared at Zhou Yunyi impatiently, and said, "Don't bother me." He ignored Yu Yongbai and asked the shopkeeper, "Take out the warm jade here!"

The shopkeeper glanced at Yu Yongbai calmly. Yu Yongbai pretended to be a customer choosing and looked at other things nearby.

The shopkeeper understood and immediately smiled: "You want to see the warm jade, right? This warm jade is very precious. Please wait a moment while we take it out from the storeroom."

Zhou Yunyi snorted, and Wang Jiajia beside him looked at him timidly: "Yilang, warm jade is very expensive, do you really want to buy it for me?"

Zhou Yunyi held Wang Jiajia's hand: "Of course, no matter how expensive it is, it is not as important as your body. Jiajia, you still have to take care of yourself, marry me, and give me some lovely children!"

Wang Jiajia's face was flushed, and she shyly pushed Zhou Yunyi: "Yilang, don't talk nonsense outside."

The two of them were bantering as if they were oblivious to the people around them.

Yu Yongbai couldn't help but roll his eyes.

The shopkeeper quickly returned with a brocade box.

When the brocade box was opened, there were three pieces of jade inside that were as misty as clouds and felt warm to the touch.

Wang Jiajia was obviously very happy, and exclaimed, "Ah!" in surprise, "These three pieces are much bigger than the one Sister Gong had to ask for back before."

The shopkeeper introduced the jade diligently: "These three pieces of warm jade in our shop were brought back from the Western Regions by our employer's caravan not long ago. They are top-quality jade. Warm jade of this size is usually treated as a family heirloom and is not easily circulated on the market. It is also a coincidence that you two knew about the jade only a few days after it arrived in our shop. I admire you very much."

Zhou Yunyi felt even more proud after being praised so unobtrusively by the treasure pavilion keeper.

Wang Jiajia picked up one of the warm jades and couldn't let it go.

The treasure shopkeeper exclaimed: "Look, sir. This lady has fair skin. When placed next to this warm jade, it is hard to tell which is whiter, the jade or the lady's skin. The old saying that a sword is given to a hero and a jade is given to a beautiful woman is indeed true."

Zhou Yunyi also nodded and said, "Not bad. But, to be honest, our Jiajia is fairer and prettier."

Wang Jiajia glanced at Zhou Yunyi shyly: "Yilang~"

The shopkeeper smiled and said, "Sir, you are right. This warm jade is a dead object after all, how can it be compared with this young lady? However, it is an honor for this warm jade to be favored by the young lady. With her icy skin and jade bones, she should be paired with this misty warm jade."

Wang Jiajia can’t put it down.

Zhou Yunyi was obviously very generous to Wang Jiajia, and said, "Okay, then I will..."

Yu Yongbai's voice suddenly joined in, and he said with a smile, "Is this warm jade really as good as you say?"

The shopkeeper understood and said, "Of course. It is said that wearing this warm jade for a long time can relax the muscles and activate blood circulation, prolong life, and beautify the skin. Boss, are you interested in it too?"

Yu Yongbai clapped his hands and said, "Not bad. It's a blessing to see such a good thing today. I also want to buy it back and let my sister wear it."

Zhou Yunyi originally hated Yu Yongbai, and when he heard this, he almost immediately frowned and said, "I was here first!"

Yu Yongbai looked very open-minded and said to Zhou Yunyi: "Brother, of course, I know the rules. You came here first, so you can choose first. There are three pieces of warm jade here, brother, you can choose first. What's the big deal?"

Zhou Yunyi's expression eased a little, but before he could say anything, Yu Yongbai had already very naturally instructed the treasure shopkeeper: "Shopkeeper, wait for this customer to choose his piece, and pack the remaining two pieces for me. I want them all! Anyway, this warm jade is very expensive, and he can't take all three pieces, right? Then the remaining ones are mine!"

The shopkeeper was delighted and acted out a scene with Yu Yongbai: "What a generous customer!"

Zhou Yunyi's face turned red with anger, and he glared at her fiercely: "What do you mean?!"

The shopkeeper tried to mediate: "Don't worry, customer. What the customer said is right. The water mist warm jade in our store is the best among warm jades. Warm jade is expensive to begin with, not to mention that this is the best water mist warm jade among warm jades, so the price is naturally high. Apart from anything else, the piece in this lady's hand is the most expensive among the three pieces of warm jade, and it costs two thousand taels of silver!"

Wang Jiajia took a deep breath and said, "Two thousand taels?! Is this warm jade so expensive?"

The shopkeeper said seriously, "That's right. Miss, you have seen it too. I am not exaggerating. I am afraid that there is no better warm jade than ours in the whole store of Beijing!... Such top-grade warm jade should be matched with a beautiful young lady like you. Otherwise, the not-so-good warm jade will lower your status, right?"

Wang Jiajia was obviously very excited.

But she also knew that two thousand taels was not a small amount. She pretended to be reluctant and said, "...Yilang, how about we forget it? Although I like this warm jade very much, two thousand taels is really too expensive."

Zhou Yunyi couldn't stand this and immediately said, "Jia Jia, what are you talking about! Two thousand taels, it's not expensive to buy you something!"

Wang Jiajia looked extremely moved and said shyly, "Yilang, you treat me so well!"

Yu Yongbai smiled and said, "Okay, have you made your selection? If you have, take them out immediately. I'll ask the shopkeeper to pack up the remaining two pieces for me! Just in time for my sister to take turns. I'm not like some people who would spend a lot of time to buy one piece!"
