Chapter 2569: Pick Several for Baili Zongxue
That night, Chen Weiming didn’t sleep well. He was unhappy about what had happened, and his abdomen still hurt.
…
The next day, Gu Ning and Baili Zongxue got up late, because the raw jade material market wouldn’t open until 9 am.
In the morning, they decided to visit the market, then walk around the nearby mountains to see whether there were raw jade materials in the afternoon. If there were, they would make further plans.Gu Ning and Baili Zongxue got up at 8 am, and went out at 8:30 am. They had breakfast first, then directly asked the hotel for a car before leaving.
Gu Ning didn’t ask for a private car, but a truck. She was going to a raw jade material market, so she would buy a lot.
Even though she owned a raw jade material mountain now, she would never have enough as a jade businesswoman. Whenever she found good raw jade materials, she wouldn’t hesitate to gather them.
The previous night after having night snacks, Gu Ning checked the map of City Rui. She memorized it, so that she would be familiar with the routes in City Rui.
Although the real situation might be different from the map, it should still be helpful. In addition, she also had GPS.
City Rui wasn’t large. After all, it was just a county-level city, so they arrived at the raw jade material market within twenty minutes.
City Rui wasn’t large, but it had a very important position.The raw jade material market in City Rui was extremely spacious. It was more than half larger than the one in City Teng and contained a lot more raw jade materials.
It was about 9:30 am at the moment, and about 80% of the stores were already open. Some visitors were already walking around.
Gu Ning pushed a shopping cart, and started searching one store after another.
Gu Ning had never been there before, so she saw many raw jade materials with jade inside. In the first store, Gu Ning found about seven raw jade materials of a middle-high level.
She didn’t buy all of them, but only took away half raw jade materials with jade inside. She also picked up all the raw jade materials of high quality. It was hard to find high and top level jade, so she wouldn’t miss any of them once she found them.
Gu Ning had no intention of cutting them open right away, because she would attract a lot of attention once the jade inside was cut out. It would cause unnecessary trouble.
Therefore, the less trouble, the better.
“Gu Ning, is there jade in them?” Baili Zongxue asked when she noticed that Gu Ning picked up raw jade materials without hesitation.
Although she asked that question, she believed that there had to be jade in most of them.
Gu Ning gained her first pot of gold by stone gambling, but the way she picked up raw jade materials seemed too casual. She seemed as if she was just there to have fun shopping.
In fact, Baili Zongxue also wanted jade, because it was helpful for her cultivation, but she had no idea which raw jade material contained jade.
She didn’t have much money either. If there was no jade inside, it would be a total waste of money.
Stone-gambling was really difficult. As a cultivator, she had many skills that mortals didn’t have, but she was still unable to discover whether there was jade in the raw materials.
“Most of them I think,” said Gu Ning. She couldn’t tell Baili Zongxue that there was jade in all of them.
“Do you trust me? If you do, I can help you choose several, but you need to pay the bill by yourself,” said Gu Ning. Since Baili Zongxue came with her, she would do something for her.
“Really?” Baili Zongxue’s face lit up at once, but the next second, she felt it might not be a good idea. “Is that right? I definitely trust you, but it’ll be your loss if there is jade inside and it belongs to me afterwards.”
Baili Zongxue wanted jade, but was unwilling to take advantage of Gu Ning.
“It’s not a big deal. I’m not sure whether there is jade inside. I’m afraid you might lose money if there isn’t,” said Gu Ning airily.
She wouldn’t directly give Baili Zongxue jade, but she could help her get several raw jade materials which contained jade.
She would give Baili Zongxue gifts, but felt reluctant to directly give her jade. Baili Zongxue wouldn’t want to take it for free either.
On the other hand, if Gu Ning helped Baili Zongxue choose raw jade materials, whether there was jade inside would depend on Baili Zongxue’s luck. At least, that was the case for Baili Zongxue.
In that case, Baili Zongxue wouldn’t feel ashamed and Gu Ning would have just done her a little favor.
There was a big difference between a little favor and alms. One had nothing to do with one’s dignity, while the other had.
It wasn’t that serious, but Gu Ning didn’t want to burden Baili Zongxue.
After hearing Gu Ning’s words, Baili Zongxue indeed felt relaxed. She trusted Gu Ning and accepted the possible loss if there was no jade inside. “Great, then please help me pick a few. Even if there is no jade inside, I won’t blame you.”
It was very nice of Gu Ning to help her, so there was no reason for her to blame Gu Ning. Moreover, she accepted it, so she should bear the result on her own.
Because Gu Ning bought too many raw jade materials, she soon attracted other people’s attention. It wasn’t uncommon, and there were many people who bought more than Gu Ning, but they were normally companies. However, Gu Ning and Baili Zongxue were individuals, and they were so young. It was very rare!
Usually, young girls bought one or two raw jade materials for fun or came to shop with their seniors.
“Tut, tut, they must be born in rich families! They bought so many raw jade materials.”
“Right, aren’t they afraid that they’ll lose a lot of money. It’s not easy to cut out jade.”
“They’re either too innocent or too rich.”
“…”
When other people saw that Gu Ning bought a lot of raw jade materials, they believed that she was born in a rich family and that she had too much money to spend.
As everyone talked about her, an elder walked over and asked, “Miss, why are you buying so many raw jade materials? There might not be jade in all of them. Aren’t you afraid that you’ll lose money?”
The elder asked Gu Ning and Baili Zongxue that question, not to laugh at them, but because he was worried that the two young girls didn’t know much about stone-gambling and were wasting their money.
