205 Getting Rich Overnight
Cui Hong frowned and stared at Gu Man. He had an indescribable feeling.
Had he seen this girl somewhere before?
“Yes, she’s Gu Man. She’s the benefactor who saved Ah Mai.”
Old Master Cui nodded. He, who was originally smiling at Gu Man, looked at Cui Hong and his expression became much calmer. “Gu Man saved Ah Mai, which is equivalent to giving Ah Mai a second life. You have to treat her as family, understand?”
Cui Hong was shocked. This was the first time in his life he had heard his father regard an outsider so highly!
“You’re right. I’ll treat this girl as my biological sister.”
These words made Old Master Cui happy. He looked at Cui Hong meaningfully. It seemed that this kid was worth teaching.
As he spoke, Old Master Cui pulled Gu Man over and asked with concern, “Gu Man, do you like this stone very much? Are you short of money? If you don’t have enough money, feel free to ask me!”
Gu Man shook her head gently. “Old Master Cui, I’m not short of money. It’s the worth of the stone that I am looking at. Just take the money just now as a loan. I’ll return it to you immediately after I open this stone!”
She did not like owing favors, even if Old Master Cui was her biological grandfather.
“Haha, it’s fine. It’s 50 million. I don’t lack this bit of money,” Old Master Cui said with a smile, not taking Gu Man’s words to heart.
A little girl knew about jade?
Cui Hong did not believe it. He naturally thought that Gu Man was only gambling on stones for the novelty of it, but his father was spending his own money to help a little girl for novelty. Wasn’t he too generous?
Cui Hong muttered in his heart and felt his heart ache.
Her father had always been thrifty. Why did he not treat money as money when he met this girl? It seemed like this girl in front of her had a very high status in his father’s heart!
Cui Hong thought about it and thought highly of Gu Man.
Just as he was thinking about how to get close to Gu Man, Gu Man was already walking towards the vendor of the stone gambling stall. “Can stones be opened here?”
“Yes, yes, of course!”
First, it was the Ghost King, and then it was Old Master. Who was the girl in front of him? Even if he had to make it on the spot, he had to make a machine to open stones!
The stall owner did not dare to be negligent. He quickly moved the machine to open the stone and asked respectfully, “Miss, where do you want to start cutting it first?”
Ever since the Ghost King appeared, many people had gathered beside this stone gambling stall to watch the commotion. Now that they saw that a young girl actually wanted to open the stone on the spot, many people began to watch the commotion.
“Tsk tsk tsk, this 50 million is going to be wasted!”
“For someone like Old Master Cui, 50 million yuan for a lousy stone is like 500 yuan for a bag. What are you worried about?”
“In my opinion, with such a prodigal heir, even if you had all the gold and silver in the world, it will still all be gone!”
…
Facing the mockery of the surrounding people, Gu Man was calm. She casually pointed at the place with the least spiritual energy on the stone and said, “Let’s do it here.”
Soon, with the sound of the machine cutting and waves of sand, an extremely dazzling green color appeared in front of everyone.
“Oh my God, it’s clear!”
“It’s imperial green!”
“You’re rich! You’re rich now!”
Exclamations erupted from the crowd, and the way they looked at Gu Man changed.
There were those who were envious and those who were greedy. Even Old Master Cui was shocked. “Gu Man, you know stone gambling?”
“If this stone is polished into jewelry, the price will be at least hundreds of millions!” Uncle Li added.
Over the years, he had been working for Old Master Cui. As time passed, he learned a lot about business. He was in charge of the Cui Family’s jewelry and jade business.
Be it its quality or size, this stone was something he had never seen or heard of in his many years of work.
Miss Man had become rich overnight!
If he could buy this stone…
Uncle Li’s eyes trembled as he made a prompt decision to extend an olive branch to Gu Man. “Miss Man, what do you want to do with this stone? The jewelry business under the Cui Corporation is top-notch in the country. Why don’t you leave it to us and let us process and sell it?”
Gu Man thought for a moment. This stone was not worth much in her hands, but if she handed it to the Cui Family, with the Cui Family’s processing technology and reputation, it could be sold for at least 20 times the price!
Only a fool would not do this business!
