"Besides, it's already the last month. The magazine is published once a week. If you want your sweetheart to win without appearing to be shady, then the votes for these four weeks must be averaged. I have to go down to the world frequently. Do you know how big a risk this is?"
Harper Du raised her hands in surrender: "Alright, alright, Lao Lei, stop calling me your sweetheart all the time. It's impossible for her and I to be together. I just want to help her. Just tell me how many fairy jades you want."
Asher Luo held up five fingers expressionlessly: "For your sake, Mr. Du, I am willing to take this risk. I won't count my own labor costs. You give me five million standard fairy jades."
"What!" Harper Du yelled, "You're doing this for my sake?" Asher Luo looked at him with a sympathetic expression, "Mr. Du, it seems you really don't know the price level in the human world. One million three hundred thousand to buy a Lamborghini sports car..."
Harper Du thought about it for a while, shook her head and said, "Forget it, I don't have that much money recently."
...
Three days later.
"Lao Luo, please help me. I played the game again with the character she played these past two days, and I like her more and more..."
Asher Luo sighed: "Mr. Du, it's not that I don't want to help you, but you can't let me pay you money, right?" Harper Du thought for a moment and said, "I don't have that much money on hand, so I will pay you two million standard fairy jades for now, and the rest, I will pay in installments!" This new term was learned from Asher Luo.
Asher Luo nodded: "No problem, you pay me one million standard fairy jades every month, and pay it off in three months, is that okay?" Harper Du gritted her teeth: "No problem!"
...
Asher Luo returned to his cave residence in the Fushan Mountain, chiseled off a small piece from the mirror-stone doorstone at his door, put it in his arms, and went down to the mortal world.
In the human world, at a well-known jewelry store, Luo Qianmie was sitting in the VIP room wearing a fashionable Gucci jacket and sunglasses. An old man wearing reading glasses was holding a magnifying glass and carefully examining the mirror stone.
Asher Luo did not deceive Harper Du in one thing, that is, he really did not have so much money. To collect 1.3 million, he had to "give up pain" and buy something.
Although mirror stones are everywhere in the fairy world, if pig farming is allowed in the fairy world, then pig farms will definitely be built with mirror stones; but in the human world, this is a rare treasure!
The old man looked at it for a long time, frowned and thought about it, picked it up and looked at it again, then frowned and thought about it again, but still couldn't make up his mind. The old man looked at Asher Luo next to him, wondering about his origins.
He was wearing all branded clothes, which were expensive. He looked like a prodigal who stole treasures from his family and sold them. The old man was cautious and handed the stone back to Asher Luo with both hands, smiling: "I'm sorry, sir, I'm not very good at seeing what kind of gem this is. Can you give us some time to ask some experts to identify it?" Asher Luo said: "Okay, I'll come back in three days." "Why don't we book a room for you at the Garden Hotel and you wait for three days?" Asher Luo shook his head: "I don't have time."
He put away the mirror stone and walked out. The old man knocked on the wooden board next to him. A capable middle-aged man came out of the next room. The old man winked at him, and the middle-aged man nodded and quietly followed Asher Luo.
The old man grabbed the phone on the table and dialed a number, his beard shaking with excitement: "Boss, that's right, it's chalcedony, chalcedony! We at Changfa will finally have chalcedony...Okay, I'll be there right away."
The old man went out and got into a black Buick sedan at the door. The car took the old man out of the city and drove into a villa on a hillside in the suburbs.
"Mr. Xiao, did you really see it clearly?" asked a fat middle-aged man in a light pink shirt. Mr. Xiao nodded, still a little excited: "Yes, I have secretly observed the two chalcedony from Deshengji and Ruifuxiang several times, and I am sure it is correct."
The middle-aged man held a dark brown cigar between his fingers, took a few puffs, and nodded, "Mr. Xiao, I believe in your eyes. I will immediately send someone to investigate the background of that kid.
This chapter is not yet finished, please turn to the next page to continue reading... We are determined to get the chalcedony, but we must not get into any trouble because of it. ""That's what I meant, so I didn't say I wanted to buy it right away, but used a delaying tactic..."
"Knock, knock..." There was a knock on the door, and the middle-aged man said angrily: "Didn't I tell you not to disturb us!" The subordinate in the black suit pushed open a crack in the door to let his voice in: "Boss, the guy that Mr. Xiao sent to keep an eye on us is back."
Mr. Xiao said quickly: "Let him in quickly."
Ganzi was the capable middle-aged man. He had always acted cautiously and prudently, and was highly appreciated by the boss and Mr. Xiao. But this time, Ganzi, who appeared in front of the boss and Mr. Xiao, was sweating profusely. He knelt on the ground as soon as he entered the door: "Boss, Mr. Xiao, I am useless. I, I lost him..."
The boss and Mr. Xiao looked at each other in surprise. They knew Ganzi's ability. He even lost track of him, so one can imagine how powerful that man is!
The boss was relieved: "We have nothing to worry about. A man with such ability is not a playboy. We can do this business with confidence..."
Three days later, Asher Luo arrived with the mirror stone as promised. As expected, Mr. Xiao arranged a few old experts, and they pretended to be firm together, while Asher Luo watched coldly from the side. Since the last time he left the store and found someone staring at him, Asher Luo knew what these people were up to.
He won't tell you anything. He doesn't care what you think, as long as you are willing to give him money.
"How is it, old sir?" Asher Luo asked with a smile. Xiao Lao nodded and praised: "Good stuff, good stuff. We accepted it. I wonder how much money you want?"
Asher Luo smiled and held up five fingers. "Five hundred thousand?" asked Mr. Xiao tentatively. Asher Luo touched his clothes casually and said, "Old sir, my clothes are worth seventy or eighty thousand. I am not a country bumpkin who has never seen a lot of money. Don't bluff me..." Mr. Xiao blushed and smiled awkwardly, "Haha, just kidding. How can such a beautiful jade be worth only five hundred thousand? How about this, one price, five million!"

Asher Luo said, "Old sir, I heard that your Changfahao is also a century-old store, but it seems that your business is not prosperous. I don't know why?" Mr. Xiao smiled casually and said, "Business, ups and downs are inevitable."
"But I did hear that your competitors Deshengji and Ruifuxiang got two pieces of chalcedony and used them as a publicity tool to attack your Changfahao. Is that true?"
Mr. Xiao's face changed. He didn't expect this young man to be so experienced. He nodded to Asher Luo and said, "Wait a minute. The amount is too large. I can't make the decision. I need to discuss it with the boss." He turned and went inside, made a phone call, and came out and said, "35 million. This is the only cash we can use now. As you said, we are really in a recession recently."
Asher Luo's gaze fell on the hall outside the VI reception room. In the center of the hall with a nine-square layout, there was a noble and luxurious pure mahogany square cabinet. The cabinet was carved into a seven-story pagoda, and each layer was filled with several precious jewels. The higher you go, the fewer jewels there are. On the top layer, there is a jade pendant priced at 16 million yuan.
Gold has a price, but jade is priceless, and this is especially true of expensive jadeite. The prosperity of the times often sparks a craze for collecting. This jadeite is also of top quality, as green as water and as big as a chicken egg. The price of 16 million is by no means expensive in the eyes of collectors. This is the treasure of Changfahao.
However, although it is precious, compared with the chalcedony from the other two families, it is really the difference between a princess and a common woman.
Asher Luo pointed and said, "35 million, plus the jadeite." Xiao Lao Da was embarrassed and said, "Sir, this..." Asher Luo said impatiently, "Old sir, you know very well how important this stone is to your Changfahao. I will not give up the price of 50 million. I am willing to accept the goods as payment. This is my bottom line. If you don't want to, China is so big that there are many powerful merchants who want to compete for the status of the three major jewelry stores. They will not think 50 million is expensive."
This chapter is not yet finished, please turn to the next page to continue reading...Mr. Xiao was shocked. Changfahao was being squeezed out by the other two companies. If he couldn't maintain his leading position among the three major jewelry stores in the country, he would really destroy the reputation left by his ancestors.
"Wait a minute, I'll ask for instructions." Mr. Xiao ran in again. This time, he came out after a long time. Seeing Asher Luo's impatient expression, Mr. Xiao hurriedly said, "The boss has agreed, we can go through the procedures right away!"
Asher Luo left his account and the mirror stone behind and took the jadeite with him. Three days later, when he checked his account, he found that there was indeed an extra 35 million in his account.
The rest of the things were much simpler. Asher Luo found some people and bought the magazines directly from the distribution company. Then he added the number 35 to all the ballots and sent out thousands of ballots every day.
The verification code on the ballot was not wasted. The ballot was mailed out and the verification code remained. In this way, only 25,000 magazines were needed for 50,000 ballots, and he saved half the cost.
Moreover, he didn't have to go down to the mortal world much during this month, as someone down there naturally helped him take care of everything. Money makes the world go round, and the money of the gods is still money.
