Boss Wei looked over with Shen Ning's gaze, his expression froze slightly, and then became nonchalant.
"Haha, Miss Shen, are you talking about this stone? How can this broken stone be considered a treasure? Butler, how do you do this? You can't even distinguish between a treasure and a stone? Is this thing valuable? Have you taken it out? It makes people laugh at the fact that our Wei family has no treasures. Just use a broken stone to make up for it, so hurry up and throw it away!"
He turned and snapped at the butler.
The butler was full of grievances and defended in a low voice: "Yes, yes, yes, but Master, I don't know what this stone is. I just saw that Master placed it in the most conspicuous position in the warehouse, so I took it..."
"Take it quickly and throw it away!"
Before the butler could finish speaking, Boss Wei interrupted him, waved his hand and scolded him, looking impatient.
"Yes Yes Yes."
Just as the housekeeper picked up the black stone, Shen Ning suddenly said:
"Wait a minute."
She stepped forward, took the black stone from the housekeeper's hand, and looked at Boss Wei with a smile.
"I quite like the shape of this stone. Since it's not worth much, why not just give it to me. What do you think, Boss Wei?"
Boss Wei felt a throbbing pain in his heart, as if someone had cut off a piece of flesh with a knife, and the muscles on his face were twitching without pain.
His lips moved, but not a word came out.
There was a feeling of shooting myself in the foot that spread from the bottom of my heart.
Damn it! Did he have water in his head or a convulsion? Why did he say that this stone was worthless
He regretted it so much that he wanted to cut out his tongue.
Seeing Boss Wei's silence, Shen Ning smiled again, raised her eyebrows and said, "Boss Wei is not willing to give away even a broken stone, right? Is this stone some kind of treasure?"
Boss Wei is riding a tiger. Just now he said it was a piece of broken stone. Now he changed his mind and said it was a treasure. Wouldn't it make people laugh
He had no choice but to bite the bullet and said: "No, it's not a treasure, it's just a worthless stone. Haha, since Miss Shen likes it, I'll give it to you."
Although he said these words with a smile, the smile on his face was uglier than crying.
This stone is more valuable than the cat's eyes and rubies on the plate put together, and they are all worth more!
Because that is a treasure that cannot be exchanged for even a thousand dollars!
I spent a lot of effort to get it.
But this incompetent housekeeper even took this treasure out of the warehouse!
He originally thought that although this thing was valuable, not many people knew about it, so he was going to take it back quietly, but he didn't expect that Shen Ning would actually ask for it, and it wouldn't work if he didn't give it.
If I had known this, I would have given the stone to her directly, and I could have saved the house deed and the gold, jewelry and stones on the plate, and saved ten million taels of loss!
Boss Wei was scratching his head with regret, but Shen Ning was elated with the black stone.
The stone felt heavy as soon as I held it, and a cool feeling penetrated my palm. It didn't feel like a stone in my hand, but like a piece of ice.
The corners of her lips curled up, and she smiled proudly.
Boss Wei wanted to trick others into fooling around, but he couldn't fool her eyes.
You must know that this is not the first time she has seen this kind of stone. Others do not know the goods, but she knows it.
At the lantern festival that year, she and Chu Shaobai guessed a lantern riddle that no one could guess, and the prize the boss gave out was this dark stone.
Cold Iron Black Stone!
