Chapter 631: Chapter 658: Meeting the Brat Again (2)
Do all rich people not like being flashy anymore? Otherwise, why wear such ordinary clothes?
Or in other words, some wealthy individuals who havenât recently become rich tend to keep a low profile.
And casually offering twenty-eight million, that should count as a top-tier mogul, right?
Otherwise, the total assets of a regular wealthy person might not even reach twenty-eight million.
At the same time, they looked at Lin Xi, thinking he wouldnât sell, because from his earlier demeanor, he wasnât an ordinary person.
Although money is an unimaginable number for over ninety percent of people, he felt Lin Xi probably wouldnât sell it.
Even the middle-aged man making the offer didnât have high expectations in his heart.
But he continued, "Twenty-eight million is already its highest value, unless you find someone of master-level skill to carve it, which would increase its value significantly."
"Otherwise, itâs worth at most twenty-eight million, so selling it to me, you wonât lose out!"
The store owner nodded in agreement. The middle-aged man was right; thatâs the logic.
At that moment, everyone watched Lin Xi, waiting for him to make a decision.
In fact, everyone knew that he probably wouldnât agree, since heâd been so calm from the start. Would someone who lacks money behave like that?
Just like that young man who sold the stone earlier, parting with it for a mere hundred thousand!
If he knew now, heâd probably be filled with regret.
However, to everyoneâs bewilderment, Lin Xi frowned, and a card inadvertently appeared in his hand, which he handed to the middle-aged man saying,
"Just transfer it directly!"
He also stuffed the high ice jade in his hand into his arms and repeated,
"Itâs yours now!"
The mogul, "..."
Store owner, "..."
The onlookers, "..."
This development was unexpected. Shouldnât there be more bargaining or something?
Especially the mogul, suddenly had a feeling that this might be a setup?
However, he had observed everything from beginning to end, no way it could be fake.
Lin Xiâs actions were just too unexpected for him!
Lin Xi reminded, "Hurry up, I have other matters to attend to. If you donât buy it, I can keep it for myself!"
Anyway, he now had several billion, so he didnât care about this twenty-eight million!
But to be honest, the high ice jade might be precious in othersâ eyes, but to him, itâs just a beautiful object.
The spiritual qi he felt before had dissipated completely when the store owner cut open the stone.
In other words, it was the spiritual qi that nurtured this piece of jadeite, otherwise it could never reach this level of translucency.
Therefore, this thing was of no use to Lin Xi at all!
The jade pendant and the porcelain cup from before at least could nourish the body and alter oneâs constitution.
The rich man, upon realizing, hurriedly took out his phone and made a call in front of everyone.
In less than five minutes, Lin Xiâs phone beeped twice.
He saw that twenty-eight million had already been transferred to his card.
Then, Lin Xi intended to pay the store owner, but he refused the money, as he felt Lin Xi was worth befriending.
He accepted the store ownerâs kind gesture.
After all, he might come here again to cut stones, and would give more then.
Under the puzzled gazes of everyone, Lin Xi left the stone gambling store.
Of course, he also felt around just now and didnât find any stones with spiritual qi.
As for other jade stones, he wasnât interested at all. After all, his purpose for agreeing to come to the stone gambling festival with Shangguan Nishang was to make money.
As soon as he walked out of the store, he instantly sensed several powerful presences, all King of Soldiers level experts.
Special forces level people, he didnât even mention, as there were several times more than King of Soldiers level people.
"Just as Ding Yueqiu said!" Lin Xi murmured, and was about to wander around when he suddenly stopped,
"Why is this little brat alone again???"
