Xu Qinglang is obsessed with collecting, and bought a villa in Lingang District to keep the collection.
After leading the two behind him into the room, he pointed to the automatic shoe cover machine by the wall.
"In order to keep my babies from getting dusty, I have to wear this too." Then he pointed to the protective suits stacked on the counter.
Schuman looked along, hesitating to speak.
Fortunately, Li Yueze is a rebel, glanced at Xu Qinglang, and said lightly: "Keep it for you to wear."
After all, he strode straight to the master bedroom.
When the villa was first built, Xu Qinglang took a video to show off to him, saying that in the future, all the S-level collections would be placed in the master bedroom, and the A-level ones in the second bedroom, in order.
So he concluded that the Paraiba tourmaline would also be in the master bedroom.
"Hey! Why are you like a bandit? You have something to discuss." Behind Xu Qinglang hurried over to stop him, but his legs were not as long as his. When he caught up with him, Li Yueze had already opened the door.
The curtains were closed tightly, and the light in the room was dim, leaving only a few spotlights.
If there was no Paraiba tourmaline on the middle jewelry platform, Schumann would definitely think that this is some kind of secret room escape scene.
"omg." She growled her mouth and whispered, "It's so beautiful."
Schu Manning, a jewelry trainee who has been training for five and a half years, couldn't hide her excitement. She skipped Xu Qinglang and Li Yueze and came to the jewelry table first.
Staring at the Paraiba tourmaline inside without blinking, "It's so beautiful."
Hearing this, Xu Qinglang sighed helplessly, "Oh, woman, you really can't walk when you see jewelry." He held his forehead, and from the corner of his eye, he sneaked a glance at Li Yueze who was standing beside him, and saw him staring at the girl who was being covered by tourmaline. The attracted woman stepped forward and teased: "I didn't expect you, Boss Li, to be enlightened, and you even know how to give gems to ladies."
"Send?" Li Yueze raised his eyebrows.
"Yeah." Xu Qinglang crossed his arms, and I've seen through your smallness all over his face, "Women, they all like shiny ones, it's normal, it just so happens that you are so rich, so what's the point of buying a gem?"
Xu Qinglang imitated him and raised his eyebrows, but his posture was slightly awkward.
"Excuse me, this one hasn't been cut yet, right?" Schumanning turned to look at Xu Qinglang and asked.
Xu Qinglang shook his head, "Not yet, what do you want to make, a necklace?" He said as he walked towards Schu Manning, and when he passed by Li Yueze, he raised his eyebrows at him again.
Li Yueze couldn't help laughing, guessing that Xu Qinglang's one-sided head misunderstood that he wanted to buy this tourmaline and give it to Schumanning.
So when it was his turn to introduce tourmaline, he was as enthusiastic as a salesperson in a jewelry store.
Li Yueze saw that his little abacus was playing well, so he didn't bother to pierce it, so he just watched and let him play.
Xu Qinglang: "Sister, I think you are very discerning. This Paraiba tourmaline is more permanent than diamonds. It is the most suitable for making love."
Although Schumanning was a little puzzled, she didn't think about it carefully, and just continued to ask what she wanted to know.
"I remember that the auction said it was the rough stone? Did you deal with it after you bought it back?"
If there is a treatment, she may have to pay attention when she goes back to do the cutting.
"No!" Xu Qinglang looked serious and shook his hand firmly, "Don't worry about this, I only collect it and don't modify it."
Schumann nodded, relieved.
"Then what's your psychological price?" Schumann asked.
Hearing that she finally got the idea, Xu Qinglang's eyes lit up immediately, he suppressed the urge to make an offer directly, he coughed, "Originally I didn't want to sell this, but Yue Ze and I have been friends for so many years, so we don't want to sell this Love can't be justified."
I heard it, friendly price.
Schuman glanced at Li Yueze, and saw that he had been standing quietly beside him. When the two looked at each other, there was no wave in his eyes.
"At that time, the price I auctioned was 40 million. Later, because of the market situation, the value of this Paraiba tourmaline has risen to about 70 million." Xu Qinglang calculated with his fingers, "I have known Yue Ze for seven or eight years. 2 million per year."
When you roll your eyes, you may be doing mental calculations.
"That's 14 million." Xu Qinglang continued: "70 million plus 14 million, 84 million."
Shumaning:
Looking at Li Yueze again, she asked him with her eyes, are you sure you are friends, not enemies
Li Yueze lowered his eyes and laughed lightly, walked up leisurely and patted Xu Qinglang on the shoulder, "84 million?"
Xu Qinglang nodded, "Yes, I'm sure."
"Oh." Li Yueze was thoughtful, "Since our friendship is so deep, it seems that you are not interested in participating in the Nancheng Peninsula project."
The man's tone was a bit pity and a bit threatening.
Xu Qinglang shrinks his neck. After all, collecting is just a sideline. It is architecture that really supports the hobby of collecting.
"I was wrong..." Xu Qinglang admitted, "Brother, I was wrong. I don't want the 14 million that symbolizes our friendship. The direct market price is 70 million, okay?"
Li Yueze nodded, "Yes, yes, in this case, let me call Yu Bizhou, he is very concerned about this project."
When Xu Qinglang heard Yu Bizhou's name, he bared his teeth and danced his feet like a puppy whose tail was stepped on.
"No, no, you can't call him." Xu Qinglang pressed Li Yueze's hand that seemed to be holding the phone in his pocket, "40 million! Come on, just 40 million!"
Schumaning, who was watching the two rich men bargaining, turned her eyes from side to side, looking at Xu Qinglang from time to time to see how he admits to being cowardly, and then at Li Yueze to see how he bargained.
She reckoned that it would be about the same if the ex-factory price could be reached, but Li Yueze was still not satisfied.
"The price of the auction house is too high, are you sure you want to use this price to negotiate with me?" Li Yueze frowned, with a sense of oppression in his eyes.
Xu Qinglang scratched his head subconsciously, "How about 35 million?"
Li Yueze didn't speak, but bent down and took a serious look at the Paraiba tourmaline, about three or four seconds later.
"20000000."
"...Are you a bandit?" Xu Qinglang wanted to cry without tears, and stepped forward to put his arms around the jewelry stand, "This is the rare top Paraiba tourmaline in a hundred years, Li Yueze, you are so fucking rich, you are worth hundreds of dollars Why do you care about the tens of millions?"
Li Yueze smiled lowly, "I didn't pay for it, she bought it."
He turned his head towards Schumann.
Xu Qinglang was belatedly aware, and looked at the two of them carefully. He, who was not like an ordinary person, came to a conclusion after being quiet for tens of seconds.
"Li Yueze, you are so picky, you actually want the lady to pay for jewelry by herself, what kind of man are you?"
Xu Qinglang is very contemptuous of Li Yueze's stingy behavior. He has been in love for so many years, and what he is most proud of is that he never treats any girlfriend badly.
What luxury jewelry brand, as long as the girl opens her mouth to say, he will give it away.
In comparison, Li Yueze is not only bargaining, but also unwilling to pay.
Xu Qinglang saw it through, turned around and warmly invited Schumaning to sit in the backyard, and persuaded him enthusiastically.
"Do you like pearls?" he asked.
Schu Manning didn't quite understand what he meant, but she wanted to laugh when she heard him call Li Yueze what kind of a man just now.
"I have an mu mussel pond, which is specially used to produce pearls. If you like it, I will take you to have a look."
Schumann was dumbfounded, "Bengtang?"
Xu Qinglang nodded, "A few fresh ones happened to be delivered this morning. If you like them, I'll have someone open them for you."
Schumann waved her hand quickly, "No, no, can I drive by myself?"
It was Xu Qinglang's turn to be confused, what do you mean, does this beautiful sister want to open the fishy mussel by herself
As a designer of light luxury jewelry, Shumaning's favorite thing to do in his spare time is to open clams.
It is the same as opening a blind box, mysterious and exciting.
The villa aunt arranged some fruits and drinks in the backyard, under the umbrella.
Li Yueze calmly sat on the wicker chair and drank coffee, while Xu Qinglang rested his chin on the other side and looked at Schumaning who was opening mussels in the corridor.
"Where did you find this?" Although he was asking Li Yueze, his eyes never left Schumanning.
"Neighbor." Li Yueze said lightly.
"Neighbor?" Xu Qinglang pondered: "Aren't you living in the penthouse suite of the Manting Hotel? How can you have neighbors?"
Li Yueze didn't bother to explain to him.
"Is she your girlfriend?" Xu Qinglang asked again.
Li Yueze choked on his throat with a mouthful of coffee, and squinted at Xu Qinglang, "It doesn't count."
Xu Qinglang clicked his tongue, "No way, brother, you are too slow."
Li Yueze laughed that he didn't understand, and he would be happy to deal with Schumanning even if it took ten or twenty years.
"Then can I pursue her?" Xu Qinglang was suddenly blessed, or maybe his head was short-circuited.
After asking, I looked forward to it, waiting for Li Yueze's answer.
It just so happened that Schuman came over with a small bag of pearls after he finished opening a few clams.
Seeing the two men staring at him, he thought it was because he was laughing too happily, and he didn't know if his mouth was crooked.
She pursed her lips, "Why are you looking at me like that..."
"Can you be my girlfriend?" Xu Qinglang stood up and said generously, "I see that you like opening pearls very much, why don't you stay here as my company, I can give you whatever you want."
He was still connoting that Li Yueze was stingy and asked the lady to pay for it herself.
Schumaning was startled by his sudden confession, and looked at Li Yueze subconsciously at a loss.
Help, she just opened a few clams, so she won't be mortgaged here, right
"But..." You don't even know my name yet.
"Don't be so!" Xu Qinglang wanted to go up to hold Schumanning's hand, but before he touched it, he was interrupted by the 'devil's claw' that suddenly protruded from the side.
He groaned in pain.
"Li Yueze, I really admire you."
When he looked up, Li Yueze was already standing beside Schumanning, looking like he was protecting the little chicken.
"It hurts so much when you hit someone." Xu Qinglang covered his hands and wrinkled his face into a mask of pain.
Li Yueze looked at him indifferently, "I will give you a long memory." After a pause for a few seconds, he said again: "Tourma, I will ask my lawyer to draw up an agreement, and then I will connect with you."
Seeing that he was about to leave after finishing speaking, Xu Qinglang quickly reached out to stop him, "Are you leaving now?"
Li Yueze didn't bother to talk to him, but Schumanning didn't have the energy to talk to him.
The sequelae of staying up late, after opening the clams excitedly just now, I am now exhausted.
She sat slumped on the co-pilot, her eyes were blank.
Li Yueze thought she was really scared by Xu Qinglang at first, so he explained to her: "He was joking with you, don't mind."
Schumann's muscles were weak all over, and the only way to save trouble was to blink.
"I know, he's doing it for your own good." When he spoke, he was so angry.
Li Yueze, who had just started the car, was quite puzzled when he heard her words: "For my own good?"
"That's right." Schumann turned his head to look at him, "He is showing you what fishing with a straight hook is."
Li Yueze looked at her and asked seriously: "Then do you like fishing with straight hooks?"
Schumann blinked again, "It depends on the person."
