In the following time, Lu Xi experienced the twists and turns of businessmen.

Tang Jin's mouth was never idle, he started talking about various topics.

Lu Xi knew very well that it was better to say less and make fewer mistakes, so she answered very carefully, fearing that she might reveal all her secrets at some point.

She was really helpless. Brother, I am so socially anxious, but you don’t care at all.

Really not wanting to continue the awkward conversation, Lu Xi sent a distress signal to the system.

[System, help is needed, a message is ringing on the phone. ]

【OK. 】

Always paying attention to her system, it acted very quickly, and Lu Xi's phone immediately received several message notification sounds in succession.

Lu Xi also cooperated, and hurriedly picked up the ringing phone, and smiled at Tang Jin very apologetically: "Sorry, it may be urgent."

“It’s okay, Miss Lu, you handle it first.”

Lu Xi silently took out her mobile phone, opened the chat software, and found that the first dormitory group was filled with 99+ unread messages in red.

At this time, her roommates are slacking off at work.

She casually flipped through the group chat history, and as expected, it was full of roommates' complaints about the company.

Fortunately, Lu Xi used to be a lurker, watching silently and rarely popping up, so her not speaking in the group these few days didn’t seem particularly abrupt.

She frowned as she read the private message her former colleague sent her and replied hastily.

Just as Lu Xi was immersed in the world of her mobile phone, a sudden sound interrupted her.

As the sound of the door being pushed open was heard, a voice followed: "Where is it, where is it, let me see what the jade pendant that my young master is unsure of looks like."

Hearing the voice, everyone turned around and saw an old man in his sixties walking in.

He wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, had a genial smile on his face, and was dressed in an antique silk gown, looking like an intellectual from the Republic of China era.

Being teased by the chef in his own shop, Tang Jin couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed. He coughed lightly and said, "Master Liu, there are people here."

"Huh, what? You blame others for your poor skills?" Master Liu retorted bluntly.

He walked over to sit next to Tang Jin, put down the tools he had brought with him, and without saying anything more to Lu Xi, he got straight to the point: "Come, let me see."

Tang Jin respectfully placed the tray in front of him, and Lu Xi's eyes were focused on the jade pendant.

About half an hour later, Master Liu put the jade pendant back on the tray and turned his gaze to Lu Xi who was sitting quietly. He quickly made a judgment in his mind.

Realizing that Master Liu was observing her, Lu Xi withdrew her gaze from the jade pendant and asked, "Any questions?"

"Little girl, where did you get this jade pendant?" Master Liu asked in a gentle tone.

At this time, Lu Xi had to thank the system for providing the packaging services.

profession.

When she accepted the inheritance, she also obtained relevant information about a family that had been wealthy in the past but had fallen into decline in modern times.

"It was passed down from my ancestors, left by the old people in my family." Lu Xi said. Anyway, when she was away from home, her identity was given by herself, and it was true. She just processed it a little bit.

"Oh, who is this little girl from? Maybe I know your old man?"

Master Liu was quite surprised because he knew almost everyone in the city who liked collecting.

In this circle, some old men become more lively as they get older, and they always can't help showing off their collections.

Therefore, regarding this jade pendant that suddenly appeared, he was curious to know which old man had been able to keep it until now.

"An old person in my family passed away, and I found it when I was cleaning the house." Lu Xi's answer was half true and half false. It wasn't too much to write another story about the inheritance business.

She purchased a business through the system and went through the formal procedures to inherit the property left by an old man, no, the property left by her grandfather's friend when he was young, and also a house where the old man lived.

However, Lu Xi had never been there because she felt guilty and afraid.

Well, back to the topic.

"Master Liu has also looked at the jade pendant. Please give me an estimate of its price."

"Hey, little girl, why are you so impatient? From the look of you, it's obvious that you don't understand this jade."

Lu Xi responded with a polite smile, thinking to herself: This old man doesn't listen to me, could he be a chatterbox?

"Come on, come on. I happen to be free today, so I'll tell you about it."

After saying that, he didn't wait for Lu Xi to answer and started talking on his own.

"This mutton-fat jade is a jade that looks like mutton fat. As early as the Three Kingdoms period, Cao Pi recorded it in "A Letter to Zhong Yao Thanking Him for the Jade Ring". He secretly saw the jade book and said that the beautiful jade was as white as cut fat..."

As Lu Xi listened, she felt her head was getting a little dizzy.

The last time I heard this long speech was when my boss held a three-hour meeting in the office.

Ding dong.

Feeling the message on his phone, Tang Jin quickly browsed the content and coughed lightly.

This subtle action effectively interrupted Master Liu's speech.

"Master Liu, the little girl may not want to hear this from you."

"Alas, I'm really old and useless. When I saw such fine jade, I couldn't help but say a few more words. But it's a pity that the girl didn't seem very interested." Master Liu stopped the topic in time, with a hint of regret in his tone.

"Master Liu, please don't say that. Our store will still rely on you in the future. You have to make the decision now." Tang Jin said with a smile.

Oh my god, if I can't react now, all these years of working in the workplace will have been in vain.

The older you get, the wiser you become. The coordination between them is so wonderful.

If this wasn't the right occasion, I would really like to applaud and cheer for them!

Master Liu put away his teasing tone and said seriously: "Okay, let's get back to the point. Little girl, the quality of this mutton-fat jade is indeed very high, and the carving is also very good. However, it is not very old. Based on these factors, we are willing to offer a price of 30 million."

When Lu Xi heard the price of 30 million offered by Master Liu, she was instantly excited.

So many zeros, it was a number she couldn't imagine.

Sensing the host's abnormal emotions, the system promptly reminded: "Host, your heart rate is too fast, please calm down."

The system's voice sounded in Lu Xi's mind. Although the tone was flat, it successfully calmed Lu Xi down.

Seeing Lu Xi not saying anything, Master Liu and Tang Jin looked at each other.

Master Liu was the first to speak with a smile, "Young lady, are you not satisfied with the price?"

Lu Xi clenched the phone in her hand, trying to calm her excitement.

She nodded. This was the lowest price calculated by the system on the way here from the publicly available prices of jade pendants of the same grade.

While some may have a premium, this jade pendant is worth the higher price.

Master Liu didn't mean to cheat her. Most of the time, he would occasionally give a low first price and then ask the seller to raise it later.

Lu Xi didn't want to haggle over the price with them, which was not what she was good at, so she directly called out a price that was similar to the system's evaluation.

"Forty million is not enough, old man. I asked someone to evaluate it before I came here. If it can't reach this price, then there is nothing to discuss."

Master Liu did not agree immediately. Although 40 million was not a loss, they would not make much if they sold it again.

He glanced to the side at Tang Jin and saw him nod slightly.

Responded to Lu Xi: "Okay, 40 million deal."
