After hearing what the man wearing glasses said, Yang Guang suddenly thought of something and asked, “I won’t be responsible for beating those people, right?”
“Don’t worry about that. Mr. Zhu will help you handle this case. He has already asked the best lawyer to come over. Those vicious people attempted to snatch your emerald. You were just trying to protect yourself,” the man wearing glasses said.
“Does that mean I have to stay here for a while longer?” Yang Guang asked.
“Yes. It will probably take three to five days, or maybe a week,” the man wearing glasses said.
Yang Guang was speechless and rolled his eyes.
He was not in a hurry to go home. It was just that he came to this place with Qi Yingxue, but now he got stuck because of this. It seemed that he could not go back with her.
Although he was not happy about it, he had no choice but to accept it.
The car drove for more than half an hour and then went into the underground parking lot of a building.
“Mr. Zhu is waiting for you in the office on the top floor. Let’s go up.”
“Okay.”
Yang Guang and the man wearing glasses got out of the car and took the elevator to the top floor.
When they arrived at the office on the top floor, the man wearing glasses said respectfully to a middle-aged man, “Sir, he’s here.”
“All right. You may leave.”
Sitting on the sofa was a middle-aged man who seemed to be in his fifties. He looked decent and his eyes were sharp.
After exchanging a glance with the middle-aged man, Yang Guang felt as if he was seen through.
Yang Guang’s heart sank. He realized that this middle-aged man was not a regular person.
After the man wearing glasses left, Zhu Zhenyu looked at Yang Guang and said, “Mr. Yang, please take a seat.”
“Okay.”
Yang Guang nodded and sat down.
“You really went through a lot of trouble to come here,” Zhu Zhenyu said.
“Fortunately, nothing big happened.” Yang Guang smiled and continued, “Mr. Zhu, thank you for sending someone to the police station. Otherwise, I’m afraid I would still be in there.”
“This case is big and it has attracted the attention of many people. It’s indeed not easy to handle.”
Zhu Zhenyu nodded and asked, “The police are now tracking down the perpetrator. Do you know who it is?”
“I’m not sure about that. It’s probably someone who saw my top-notch emerald in the jade market and was jealous of me,” Yang Guang said.
“I think so too.”
Zhu Zhenyu nodded. “But I didn’t expect that those people would be so fierce.”
“I believe that the police will find out who the perpetrator is,” Yang Guang said.
“Yeah.”
Zhu Zhenyu nodded and continued, “This is also an insult to me. How dare they try to snatch the emerald from me!”
Yang Guang was stunned for a moment, then he smiled and said, “Mr. Zhu, don’t say that. The jade is still mine now. You didn’t name your price, and I didn’t agree to sell it to you.”
Hearing this, Zhu Zhenyu smiled and said, “Don’t worry, young man. In this place, no one except me can afford to buy your emerald. Your emerald can’t be sold at a higher price unless you take it to the provincial capital and find an auction house.”
“Is that so? How much do you plan to give me?” Yang Guang asked.
Everything else was secondary. What Yang Guang was most concerned about right now was money.
Zhu Zhenyu smiled and looked into Yang Guang’s eyes. “I haven’t seen the jade yet. How do I know if it’s what I want?”
“Oh, yeah.”
Yang Guang slapped his forehead, quickly opened the box, and took out the emerald.
Just as Yang Guang placed it on the table, Zhu Zhenyu stood up.
Zhu Zhenyu picked up a flashlight and a magnifying glass. Then, he bent down and looked at the emerald for a while.
Seeing the arrested look on Zhu Zhenyu’s face, Yang Guang did not say anything and quietly stood at the side.
Ten minutes later, Zhu Zhenyu clicked his tongue. “This is really the best kind of emerald.”
After saying that, he turned to look at Yang Guang. “If this piece of emerald is expertly carved, it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to call this piece of emerald a national treasure.”
“Really?”
Yang Guang was a little confused when he heard that, and his eyes widened in shock.
“Yeah.”
Zhu Zhenyu nodded and continued, “I’ve been in the jewelry business for so many years, but I’ve never seen an emerald of such high quality. This emerald is wrapped in the glassy species jadeite. It’s really rare.”
“Well, Mr. Zhu. How much do you think this piece of emerald is worth then?” Yang Guang asked.
Zhu Zhenyu didn’t say anything. He just smiled.
Yang Guang was a little confused. “Mr. Zhu?”
“It’s worth 17 million dollars.”
Yang Guang’s eyes widened and he almost stopped breathing.
In his opinion, this piece of emerald was better than the one he got last night, but the emerald he got yesterday was sold to Yang Ruoyun after all. She was quite wealthy.
The reason why the emerald Yang Guang got last night was sold at such a high price was because Yang Ruoyun liked it.
As for the emerald Yang Guang got today, he would be happy if it could be sold for six million dollars.
That was why Yang Guang was stunned when he heard that Zhu Zhenyu offered 17 million dollars.
After a moment, Yang Guang could not help but smile bitterly, “It seems that the jewelry business is really profitable.”
“As long as I like it, money is not a problem.”
Zhu Zhenyu smiled and asked, “Are you satisfied with this price?”
“Of course I’m satisfied.”
Yang Guang nodded. He wasn’t a greedy person. Plus, the price Zhu Zhenyu offered exceeded his expectations.
Zhu Zhenyu nodded happily. “You are really a decisive young man.”
“There’s no need to praise me, Mr. Zhu. I would like to know the price you offered is pre-tax or after-tax. For your information, I just sold an emerald this morning at a price after-tax,” Yang Guang smiled and said.
Zhu Zhenyu was stunned and immediately asked, “You sold an emerald this morning?”
“Ah? Don’t you know about that?”
Yang Guang was also stunned for a moment and then asked, “I thought you were a tycoon in the jewelry business and you would have heard of it.”
“Well…”
Zhu Zhenyu pondered for a moment before he asked, “Did you get a canutillos last night?”
“See? I knew that you had heard about it.”
Yang Guang chuckled and continued, “I did get a canutillos last night.”
When Zhu Zhenyu heard that, his jaw almost dropped.
Then, he asked with a stunned expression, “You got two top-notch emeralds. This is unbelievable.”
“I was just lucky.”
Yang Guang did not say anything, but he seemed very proud.
Zhu Zhenyu looked at Yang Guang seriously and asked, “Young man, do you have some special gift?”
“No, I don’t. Why do you ask?”
Yang Guang was stunned and then asked with an expression of innocence.
Yang Guang did not want Zhu Zhenyu to know that he had Method of Divine Eyes. No one could know about this.
Zhu Zhenyu saw Yang Guang’s expression and his eyes flickered. Then, Zhu Zhenyu laughed, “Nothing. I was just asking..”
