Chapter 13 - The Gu Family
The Gu family and the Li family had started their business here, but the difference was that the Li family had entered the real estate, and the Gu family had entered the jewelry industry.
So it turns out that the two families were fighting in the catering business. It could even be said that they were fighting until their heads bled.
As long as the Gu family had a place in the jewelry market, they could occupy the entire county's catering industry before the Lee family could recover. At that time, the Gu family would be a two-legged person, and would have more sense of security.
"Gu Liang, is this your family's stone? It doesn't look like anything else. " Although Zhang Meng did not know much about jadeite ore, he could tell from the conversations of the people around that this rock was worth a lot.
"Class Rep, you have sharp eyes. This stone was personally picked by my father, and experts from the other provinces have hundreds of thousands of dollars in money just to pick it. This stone is worth 5 million, but if we can get jade out, our family will be able to make a killing." Gu Liang said proudly. He had finally found a chance to show off.
"5 million?" Zhang Meng said in shock.
"Class Rep, lower your voice, keep a low profile". Although this guy said he was being low-key, his expression was extremely arrogant, but seeing that Li Tian was still the same as before, he could not help but be dissatisfied.
"Brat, why are you looking around? This thing isn't something you can play with right now." did not say anything and only went over to feel the spirit energy. He did not expect that this fellow was also unwilling.
This stone was definitely not an ordinary stone. Li Tian had already felt it, the spirit energy inside was extremely dense, could it be that the Gu family was really rich?
Just like what Gu Liang had said, as long as there was jade, it would immediately increase in value. Everyone knew the jade was non-renewable, and its price could only rise and not drop, currently, it was only available in Myanmar.
Although the cost of transportation for this stone was over 6 million, if he were to double the profit from selling the jade, it would be considered a small amount. If he managed it well, it might even exceed 20 million.
"I just wanted to take a closer look. I can't really see the damage. Your family's stone isn't that weak, right?" Li Tian said with a smile. No one could tell from his expression that his mood had changed at all.
What more did Gu Liang want to say? However, when he saw his old man glare at him, he immediately shut his mouth. Boss Gu was also gloomy inside, a young man who was provoked by his son like this should at least talk back, but why was this brat so calm?
There were only two possibilities. They were either very scared or they didn't put their men in their eyes.
Back when Li Tian's father had entered the real estate business, the Gu family felt that the Li family had seized the initiative. Those buildings had been blown around by the wind, and if they were to be sold successfully, the Li family could ascend several steps in a single go.
Boss Gu was able to drink two more cups every day during that period of time. Not only did he lose a competitor, he also gained a clear understanding of the real estate industry, killing two birds with one stone. At that time, Boss Gu was also preparing to enter the real estate industry.
All these years, Boss Gu had always been suppressed and beaten by Li Tian's father, so he was extremely unhappy with his family.
"Boss Gu, don't be so nervous, my master is known as the strongest stonecutter in our Ludong Province, this stone will definitely increase greatly." A young man standing behind the Boss Gu saw that he was a little nervous.
"Of course. To be able to invite your teacher, Mr. Ma's teacher, our Gu family is truly fortunate. Look at the time, it's about time. Are you going to explain it yourself?" Although he was just a young man, Boss Gu was very polite to him.
Seeing the doubt on Zhang Meng's face, Gu Liang would of course not let go of this opportunity and quickly explained to Zhang Meng. This young man's teacher was Dong Qiu, known as the one who knew how to gamble the most in the Ludong Province, he had already opened up a jade worth hundreds of millions under Zhang Meng's hands, and even asking him to do it once would cost hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Li Tian had not opened his eyes yet, so he was unable to see what was inside the stone. However, he could only rely on his spirit energy to determine if there were any gems inside.
"Welcome everyone to the opening ceremony of our Gu Clan Jewelry, now it is the climax of the ceremony, this is a piece of jadeite ore that our Chairman Gu has personally bought, the purchase price is as high as five million yuan, we have the honor to invite Mr. Dong Qiu, the Emerald Master, to personally pay us a visit, and below, we would like to invite Mr. Ma Gao Gao to give us the stone, everyone applauded." The Gu Clan had invited an extremely beautiful host to announce this matter. It was indeed much more lively than Old Man Gu's personal announcement.
He had already changed into a set of work clothes and slowly walked to the side of the jadeite ore. The stone cutter had already been prepared, and according to their previous guesses, this 50 centimeter diameter jadeite ore should have split into two, from the middle, before slowly wiping the stone.
After fixing the stone and sprinkling the water, all of his movements were completed in one go. One had to admit that this Mister Ma was indeed from an influential family.
This was the most crucial moment that followed, and not only was everyone's attention fixed on the jadeite ore, even Mr. Ma himself was a little nervous. This was the most expensive piece of jadeite ore that he had cut, and unlike his master, even if his master broke, he still had so many achievements, and this was his first time cutting it.
The Boss Gu had said that if it really rose, the title of chief adviser would belong to him, and the annual salary would be 1 million.
"Zizi!"
The stonecutter went down the line it had drawn.
Pow!
A rock was split into two and dropped onto the table. The truth was revealed.
"Holy shit, this is trash!" It was unknown who said that, but Boss Gu sat down on the ground, his mind was cloudy and there was nothing. Didn't they say that it was a good rock? Why did it become trash?
