The Lady is Beautiful and Sassy-Chapter 348 - 346
"Qiao Yue’er gave it to you? Then she definitely doesn’t have good intentions," Ning Xiuyuan said in a low voice.
"So it’s perfect for Lu Mochen."
Hearing her say this, Ning Xiuyuan was completely relieved. So that’s what this is about, after all, Qiqi is the smartest.
...
Gu Cheng had already found the address of the jade factory. Once everything was arranged, he reported it to Qiao Qiqi, and that evening, Qiao Qiqi went over with her brother.
Gu Cheng heard that the siblings had arrived and personally went to greet them. By now, the way he looked at Qiao Qiqi was different, filled with admiration.
Because just that afternoon, he had a master open a few raw stones that Qiao Qiqi had bought, and every piece turned out to be perfect!!
It’s fortunate that the master he found is one of their own people; otherwise, who knows what trouble might have come up.
"Miss, I took it upon myself to open a few raw stones this afternoon. You won’t blame me, will you?" Gu Cheng felt somewhat uneasy, after all, he hadn’t gotten Qiao Qiqi’s permission to do this. If the results were mediocre, it would be one thing, but with all these treasures, he really felt guilty.
"The stones are bought to be opened; you just need to keep the mouths of the people here sealed," said Qiao Qiqi.
Qiao Jiezhe asked puzzled, "What’s going on? Why would my sister blame you?"
"Let’s go in and take a look, then you’ll know," Qiao Qiqi said as she stepped inside.
Gu Cheng immediately led the way, explaining the layout of the factory along the way, "This was originally a jade factory, but it went bankrupt due to poor management. I thought buying it would be more convenient since the tools are all ready-made."
"Your idea is good," Qiao Qiqi affirmed.
Gu Cheng was originally worried she might not be satisfied, but unexpectedly, she praised him. Normally, when working under the boss, not to mention praise, he had never received so much as a kind word.
Even though he knew the boss wasn’t good at expressing himself, who doesn’t long for affirmation and praise?
Upon arriving at the raw stone storage, Qiao Qiqi looked at the opened stones. Whether it was color or translucency, they were all top-notch, and she nodded in satisfaction.
Qiao Jiezhe was equally astonished. Excitedly, he rushed over to touch the jade, grinning foolishly, "Sister, did you buy all these? You’re amazing! We’re going to be rich, the family’s going to be rich!"
"Brother, our family already has money."
"It’s not the same! That’s money Dad earned, which has nothing to do with me. This is what my sister earned, and it has everything to do with me!" Qiao Jiezhe continued to grin foolishly.
"...If you like, I’ll give you a piece," Qiao Qiqi said earnestly.
"No need, no need, sister. As long as you use it to make money, that’s good enough," Qiao Jiezhe said, despite his affection for them, knowing that as a man, he wouldn’t be able to use these; they should be made into something to sell.
The siblings took another look around, and Qiao Qiqi instructed Gu Cheng to ensure security measures were in place, knowing that many would be eyeing the treasures in a jade factory.
She certainly didn’t want to attract thieves and have the treasures stolen.
As they were leaving, Gu Cheng asked, "What designs should be made from these?"
"Leave it all to the experienced masters. They know what to do. You just need to assign trustworthy people to keep an eye on things," said Qiao Qiqi. She didn’t want to assume the worst in people, but greed is a powerful force, and she was being responsible for everyone involved.
Gu Cheng nodded and took note, thinking to himself that his boss had indeed found a great treasure in Qiao Qiqi. She’s practically a walking little treasure trove. The young master is going to be rich!
