[The hidden condition of the mission [The Favor of the Great Family] is triggered. After completing the condition, you can get additional rewards, skill scroll +1. ]
While collecting information about Bai Jin, Yang Yu's system panel popped up the following message.
Speaking of which, Terra just said that the Giant Umbrella Chamber of Commerce was formed by many families. Could it be that the Giant Umbrella Chamber of Commerce was instructed by the big family behind it to conduct the investigation, and then the Giant Umbrella Chamber of Commerce felt it was troublesome and outsourced the task to adventurers.
But why are the additional rewards appearing now
emmm
I understand. After all, it is a task assigned to them by their superiors, so the Giant Umbrella Chamber of Commerce has to take it seriously, and that is why they need reliable adventurers.
My strength is now known to all the adventurers here, but my origins are unknown and I became famous too quickly. The Giant Umbrella Chamber of Commerce still has doubts about whether I really have the strength.
Just now, I accidentally saw through that they were a small chamber of commerce, so after I left, Terra secretly contacted the employer and determined that I had the ability to complete the task and could complete it better than imagined.
Obviously, there are so many families behind them, but they are still a small chamber of commerce. They are really dogs. No wonder they want to catch the tail of the big chamber of commerce.
They gave me a week to infiltrate.
If I guessed correctly, the hidden condition should be that the task must be completed some time in advance after obtaining all the props.
"Yes, it's challenging. I like it."
After continuing to collect some information about Bai Jin, Yang Yu found the jewelry store.
Since it is a challenging task, the risk of failure must be considered. Terra once said that a retreat has been reserved for them, but in order to prevent someone from crossing the river and destroying the bridge, Yang Yu still plans to leave a way out for himself.
He once sold a glass bead to a jeweler, agreeing to return it within a month.
If he left openly, it would definitely affect his reputation, so he found the jewelry store owner and planned to tell him the second half of the story of the glass bead so that he could spend the hundred thousand with peace of mind.
Various exquisite and beautiful gems came into view, but Yang Yu's gaze did not linger on them for too long. He pretended to be completely accustomed to it and walked with his head held high, and greeted the lady at the counter.
at this time.
In a room of the jewelry store, Ge Gen, dressed in luxurious clothes, was playing with a glass bead. He had asked an appraiser who was more professional than himself to appraise it. This thing was almost impossible to imitate with the current level of human beings. This also showed that this small glass bead was a unique treasure in the world.
With it, getting rich is no longer a dream.
Just as Ge Gen was imagining how many times the value of this small glass bead would increase after passing through his hands, the lady at the counter knocked on his door and told him that Yang Yu was here.
His fat face twitched slightly, and Ge Gen was very surprised by Yang Yu's sudden visit.
"Why is he here? It's only been a few days. Did he change his mind? It's rare that I like this thing more and more. What if..."
Ge Gen frowned and asked the lady at the counter to greet Yang Yu first. Then he gently put the glass beads into the jewelry box, put it away, and walked to the VIP room with a big belly.
In the VIP room, Yang Yu tasted the tea carefully. Even an ordinary person could tell that the tea this time was much better than the last time.
Walking slowly into the VIP room, Ge Gen smiled flatteringly when he saw Yang Yu.
"A rare guest, Mr. Yang Yu. I'm sorry for not welcoming you. I wonder what important matter has brought you to my humble abode today?"
"You're really modest to call a store like this your humble home."
“No, no.”
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Yang Yu got straight to the point, "I won't say any more nonsense. I came here today to get back the glass beads I sold here."
Ge Gen asked with a smile: "Why so sudden?"
"Nothing, it's just that life here is more boring than I imagined, and I can't stay for more than a month. I plan to go somewhere else to have a look. In order to prevent you from suffering unnecessary losses, I plan to buy back the glass beads as agreed."
Yang Yu took a sip of tea and remained calm.
Although he had used up a lot of the 100,000 gold coins he had, he was not panicked at all. If he failed, the worst that could happen was that he would borrow some money from others to make up for it first, and then find other channels to sell the glass beads.
However, he believed that the owner of the jewelry store no longer wanted to give him the glass beads.
As expected, Ge Gen showed an extremely embarrassed expression on his face. He had spent too much time and energy on this small glass bead, thinking about how to sell it at a high price every day, and he couldn't eat or sleep at night. He had already developed feelings for this small glass bead.
Now, Yang Yu wanted to buy back the glass bead that he loved so much with a little change of over 100,000 yuan. He just wanted to yell at Yang Yu: "Get out of here, as far away as you can! If you sell it, the glass bead will be mine!"
Fortunately, Ge Gen thought that Yang Yu might be some noble being, and still had a little bit of rationality, so he said respectfully:
"Mr. Yang Yu, to be honest, I have already found a buyer and have agreed to sell this glass bead for 200,000 yuan.
You once said that if you sell this thing to me, I will try my best to find a buyer during this period, and if I can find a buyer and sell it to him, it will be a sure-win business.
I did what you said, and everything went as you expected. Although the glass beads are still in my hands, if you suddenly take them back, I will not be able to explain to that person. "
Since Yang Yu just wants to leave because he is bored with this kind of life and not because he wants to find a better buyer, then he still has a chance.
Having been in the gem business for many years, Ge Gen is best at finding the information he wants from other people's mouths and making the best business judgment.
For example, when he was chatting with a noble lady, he could always tell what aspect of her dressing the lady was most concerned about, and then he would extend the topic to gems and use it to sell them.
"I didn't expect you to find a buyer so quickly. It seems that I underestimated you." Yang Yu put down the teacup and smiled. "It is indeed a bit unfair to ask you to return the glass bead now. But are you sure you want to sell this glass bead? As you can see, it is just a man-made product. As long as society continues to develop, profit-seeking people will one day imitate something similar."
"You don't have to worry about that. We gem merchants only care about the present. I've experienced the discovery of new gem mines, which caused gems to depreciate drastically. We just need to make a fortune before anyone else thinks of it."
Ge Gen showed a businessman's unique smile, cunning and sly.
"How about this, Mr. Yang Yu, I will make less money this time and give you another 50,000. Even if you officially buy the glass bead, you don't have to guarantee the value of the glass bead. You can go wherever you want. This 50,000 will be regarded as my travel expenses for you. Have fun."
"As expected of the owner of a jewelry store, you have good foresight. You know that risks and benefits coexist, and you take risks calmly." Yang Yu looked at Ge Gen with admiration, "Now that you put it that way, I can't force you to return my glass beads. After all, I sold it to you first. You don't have to pay 50,000. Just give me 39,999, which is a little more than 10,000. I can share some of the risk with you. Let's make friends."
Hearing Yang Yu say this, Ge Gen breathed a sigh of relief, then grinned slightly.
"make a deal."
