Chapter 177 - 177 The Water Is Too Deep, You Can't Grasp It

177 The Water Is Too Deep, You Can’t Grasp It

“I can’t make the decision. I’ll call Ye Feng and ask him for his opinion.”

When Shen Baitian heard that someone was going to spend 550 million to buy the raw stone, she suddenly panicked.

By right, if someone was willing to pay so much money, she should have agreed without any hesitation.

However, this was Ye Feng’s item, and she did not dare to make her own decision.

Therefore, after she regained her senses, Shen Baitian immediately called Ye Feng’s cell phone.

However, the ringtone on the other side kept ringing, but no one picked up.

She called a few times in a row, but it was the same.

Shen Baitian could only awkwardly smile at Zhang Chunhong. “I’m sorry, he’s probably busy right now.”

Zhang Chunhong hurriedly urged, “I think you can make the decision on his behalf. It’s 550 million.”

“Besides, I’m guessing he doesn’t even know how much this thing is worth, right?”

“Otherwise, why would Ye Feng place it at the entrance so casually?”

Although Shen Baitian felt that what she said made sense, she still stubbornly shook her head.

“No, without Ye Feng’s consent, I can’t make my own decisions.”

Zhang Chunhong sighed helplessly and could only turn her head to look at the camera.

“The student just now, I’m really sorry. Because Ye Feng is not at home now, we can’t make our own decisions.”

Feng Xiao had no choice but to pass on the news to his grandfather. “Grandpa, the owner of this raw stone is not at home right now. We can’t bid for it.”

Feng Mengquan was anxious. “What about the owner of the raw stone? Hurry up and find him!”

Feng Xiao immediately told his grandfather about Ye Feng.

When Feng Mengquan heard that Ye Feng was two-timing, he was instantly enraged. “These people are sick in the head. This is their own business! Why are they blindly interfering? You’re such a busybody.”

Feng Xiao was dumbfounded. “Grandpa, he’s cheating on others. Isn’t he worthy of criticism?”

Feng Mengquan’s eyes widened. “To be able to two-time, that’s because he’s capable. Why don’t you two-time? You can’t even stand properly after stepping on one, and you still have the face to say that.”

Feng Xiao immediately shut up.

He could tell that his grandfather’s love for Ye Feng extended to his entire family.

Now, if anyone dared to say anything bad about Ye Feng in front of him, his grandfather would probably chase him to his house with a machete.

At that moment, Mao Qianqian suddenly walked to the front of the camera and used her unique rational tone to analyze the situation.

“Students, although this Emperor Green Jade is very precious, I don’t want you to blindly chase after it or even buy it at a sky-high price.”

“From an economic point of view, jade actually doesn’t have any actual value. Its value is determined by people’s speculation.”

“To put it bluntly, this is a kind of speculation, or rather, this is a kind of gambling. We should strictly boycott it…”

After hearing her rational analysis, many supporters in the live broadcast room immediately flooded the screen.

[Senior Sister Mao is right. Otherwise, why would it be called stone gambling? To put it bluntly, it’s a gamble.]

[I really don’t know why this thing is so expensive. Can it be eaten? It can still be used? It’s all hyped up by the businessmen.]

[I can’t agree more. I’ve always felt that people who buy luxury goods are sick, including those who buy diamonds.]

[At the very least, the diamond looks pretty. I don’t think the jade looks pretty at all. Why is it so expensive?]

[Everyone, listen to Senior Sister Mao. We’ll never buy jade or luxury goods.]

[Learn from Senior Sister Mao!]

[Learn from Senior Sister Mao…]

In the live broadcast room, many people were stirred up by Mao Qianqian and began to actively boycott jadeite.

At that moment, Mao Qianqian’s cell phone suddenly rang.

The call was from her supervisor, who was also the dean of the business school of Zhonghai University.

Mao Qianqian did not dare to delay and quickly answered the call.

Before she could speak, she heard the teacher’s anxious voice.

“Qianqian, hurry up and help me buy that raw stone.”

“Ah? Teacher, you…”

“I don’t have time to explain it to you now. Hurry up and buy it. If you’re too late, it’ll be snatched away by others.”

“Then… How much do you plan to pay?”

“Since someone offered 550 million just now, it means that someone has seen the value of this raw stone. I’ll offer 580 million.”

Mao Qianqian was so shocked that she was speechless.

Her mentor was usually a very rational person.

Why was he so impulsive now?

Zhang Chunhong, who was at the side, saw that she was silent for a long time, so she took the initiative to say, “What Senior Sister Mao said just now made a lot of sense. Can you say a few more words to the students?”

Mao Qianqian regained her senses and looked at her awkwardly. “That… Can I ask you a question?”

Zhang Chunhong looked at her expectantly. “Sure, you can ask.”

Mao Qianqian coughed twice. “I’m willing to pay 580 million for this raw stone. Can you sell it to me first?”

As soon as she said this, everyone in the living room of Zhongtian Lake-View Villa No. 1 was stunned.

Didn’t Mao Qianqian just say that the raw jade stone had no actual value?

Furthermore, didn’t she righteously advise everyone not to buy it?

Why did she buy it now?

It wasn’t just them, even the livestream was filled with an awkward atmosphere.

[…What does Senior Sister Mao mean? Didn’t she just say that we can’t buy jade?]

[Maybe she thinks that the waters of the raw jade stone are too deep and we can’t grasp it, so she should be the one to grasp it?]

[Chinese American and German short story: friendship, episode two?]

[No one can escape the law of true fragrance!]

[How could Senior Sister Mao be such a person? To think that I regarded her as an idol before!]

[Young man, you’re too immature, right? In the face of benefits, everyone will reveal their true nature!]

Naturally, Mao Qianqian knew what her classmates would say about her. However, she could do nothing about it.

After all, this was a mission given to her by her mentor.

She had no room to refuse.

Shen Baitian heard that Mao Qianqian was willing to offer 580 million yuan…

Once again, she fell into a state of confusion.

If the student who just now offered 550 million yuan was an impulsive purchase…

But now, Mao Qianqian, who had always been regarded as the business talent of Zhonghai University’s business school, had offered 580 million.

It was enough to prove the value of the raw stone.
