The Lady is Beautiful and Sassy-Chapter 209: The Koi Luck Is Hard to Disbelieve
Rong Nian Nian quickly picked out ten rough stones and had them sent over to the cutting area. She then glanced around and walked over to the stall where Qiao Qiqi and Qiao Jiezhe were.
Qiao Qiqi had found a piece of top-grade Imperial Jade at this stall, and it wasn’t a small piece, but a large one!
If this stone is cut open, it would be worth at least hundreds of millions!
The reason this stone hadn’t been discovered, much like the other Violet Jade, was because the rough stone was too large and the skin was too thick, making it difficult to identify.
"What’s wrong? Haven’t chosen yet? If you don’t know how to pick, don’t pretend. Not everyone has such good luck," Rong Nian Nian mocked, playing with her hair.
"Are you crazy?" Qiao Jiezhe immediately got angry; he’d been holding back against this woman for a long time.
Qiao Qiqi quickly held back her brother, gave a small smile, and said, "I really don’t have Miss Rong’s skills. It seems Miss Rong is quite confident about today’s bet."
"Of course! This Miss has never lost a bet!" Rong Nian Nian said arrogantly.
"I really can’t choose good rough stones. Maybe Miss Rong can help me see? I’m afraid if I really pick ten bad stones, it would be a huge joke," Qiao Qiqi looked sincerely at the woman opposite her.
Rong Nian Nian, hearing this, scoffed inwardly. At least Qiqi was sensible enough to recognize her, and thus she said, "Since that’s the case, I’ll help you this time. Pick that one! If you buy it, it’s definitely something good!"
Qiao Qiqi saw that the stone Rong Nian Nian pointed to was indeed the one with the Imperial Jade. She raised an eyebrow, thinking maybe there was something to the talk about koi luck.
"Who are you fooling? Such a big piece is obviously not something good! We’re not buying it!" Qiao Jiezhe pulled his sister to leave.
"Brother, if someone is giving us money, why not take it? She is a koi," Qiao Qiqi whispered, then asked the boss for the price.
"That one is fifty thousand! Not a penny less!" The boss knew this was a good chance to rip off a customer and rudely asked for ten times the usual price.
Qiao Jiezhe got even angrier, but Qiao Qiqi smiled, "Fine, I’ll buy it for fifty thousand!"
Buying something worth hundreds of millions for fifty thousand, just hope the boss doesn’t cry later.
"Miss Rong, time isn’t up yet, and I’m still two short. My brother and I will take another walk around. See you in a bit."
After swiping the card for payment, Qiao Qiqi had the stone placed properly and left with Qiao Jiezhe.
Rong Nian Nian snorted and turned back to look at her own stones.
She thought to herself that Qiao Qiqi was really stupid. She had obviously pointed to a bad stone on purpose, yet Qiqi actually bought it. What a fool!
"Sister, why do you put up with her?" Qiao Jiezhe was quite angry.
"Brother, soon she’ll be bringing us money, so why not put up with it?" Qiao Qiqi smiled happily. With a koi like Rong Nian Nian, she could righteously obtain ten mid-quality rough stones, and although not as valuable as the ones she bought, they would still be worth several million.
Qiao Jiezhe, "..."
"Sister, but she’s a koi. Can we really win?" He wasn’t sure at all.
"Brother, just trust me!" Qiao Qiqi didn’t explain much more, thinking it would be useless to talk, they’d find out once the stones were cut.
Qiao Qiqi picked two of the worst stones to make up ten in total. Among hers were three top-grade jades: a Violet Jade, an Imperial Jade, and a three-color Jade, each worth hundreds of millions. There were also two Ice Glutinous Seed White with Green Vein, not very valuable, and the remaining five were just stones, completely worthless.
