Chapter 123 Getting Started

Ji Feng was standing in the middle of the square and waiting. He was listening to Hu Xuehui's brother-in-law boasting proudly while feeling amused and angry at the same time.

He found it funny that Hu Xuehui's brother-in-law was a businessman after all. How dare he boast so brazenly in the square? One had to know that almost everyone who came today were industry insiders. Although these people weren't invited to the opening ceremony, they could at least be considered people with a certain level of strength.

Hu Xuehui's brother-in-law was also not invited to the opening ceremony, which meant that he was not very strong. He dared to speak in such a manner under such circ.u.mstances, so it was not a big deal to be mocked by others. However, if he was looked down upon by others, it would greatly affect his future voice.

"It looks like he's also a nouveau riche!" Ji Feng smiled disdainfully.

At the same time, he found out that Hu Xuehui had indeed come to Jiang Prefecture. However, the universities there were still training, and he had to leave the military camp for some special reason. Why hadn't Hu Xuehui partic.i.p.ated in the military training? Logically speaking, she should be out of time at this time!

It seemed that Hu Xue Hui must have used some special method to avoid the military training.

Since they were quite close to each other, and Hu Xuehui's brother-in-law kept on boasting, Ji Feng could only smile bitterly and endure the pain in his ears.

Fortunately, Hu Xuehui's brother-in-law's bragging did not last long before the opening ceremony was over. At this time, the crowd on the square gradually entered the exhibition hall. Ji Feng also followed the crowd into the hall.

However, Ji Feng soon discovered that something was amiss. Those who entered earlier all had a ticket to the exhibition hall in their hands, or rather, it was something similar to an invitation card.

When these people entered the exhibition hall, there would be a guard specially collecting tickets before being able to enter.

Looking back at Ji Feng, there was nothing.

"This is troublesome." Ji Feng could not help but smile bitterly. There was no ticket, and there was no one here who knew him, not even someone to speak up for him.

Thinking of this, Ji Feng decided to stop. He was prepared to turn around and return first to buy tomorrow's admission ticket. However, just as he turned around, he saw that the three of them were separated by a few people.

Ji Feng frowned. Everyone was in a long line. If they left now, they would definitely attract other people's attention. The three of them would also be the first to notice it.

Gritting his teeth, Ji Feng saw that he was about to reach the door, but he didn't know what to do.

While he was hesitating, Ji Feng suddenly saw quite a few people coming out of the exhibition hall. He was overjoyed. It seemed that the opening ceremony was over, and some leaders and other people were preparing to leave. If they were to sneak into their team at this time and leave, it wouldn't be very eye-catching.

Ji Feng immediately continued moving forward, and as he neared the entrance, he immediately turned and walked towards the exit.

However, at this time, a guard at the door saw him and immediately said, "Sir, please show your admission ticket!"

Ji Feng paused for a second, then shook his head and smiled, "I'm here to look for someone, not to partic.i.p.ate in the exhibition!"

The guard nodded and took a few steps back.

"Ji Feng?!"

Suddenly, there was a cry of surprise. Ji Feng's body stopped moving, but Hu Xue Hui still saw him.

However, Ji Feng did not turn around, nor did he stop. Instead, he strode towards the exit, leaving the exhibition hall with the others.

"Xiao Hui, what were you shouting just now?" Hu Xue Hui's sister could not help but ask.

"I think I saw Ji Feng!" Over the past year, Ji Feng's body had become much stronger. Moreover, his temperament had also changed a lot.

"Ji Feng? That poor brat who kept pestering you? " Hu Xuehui's sister curled her lips and said in disdain, "Are you sure you saw it wrong? He was just a poor kid who sold vegetables, how could he have the qualifications to come here? This is the Jadeite Jadestone Exhibition, and is not a place where people of a certain background would come to, if anyone dares to come here, wouldn't that be asking for trouble? "

Hu Xue Hui was not sure either. "Maybe I was mistaken," she said with a smile.

"Don't say anymore, it's our turn. Let's go in!" Hu Xue Hui's brother-in-law shouted. His greedy eyes were constantly looking at Hu Xue Hui while he was trying to push Hu Xue Hui and his sister into the arena. A big fat hand was placed on Hu Xue Hui's back and slid down without leaving a trace.

A shy expression flashed across Hu Xuehui's face. She slightly moved away, afraid that her brother-in-law would be dissatisfied, so she quickly took her sister's arm and praised, "This exhibition hall is so beautiful. A big city like Jiang Zhou is really different!"

"Hmph, let's see how long you can run for!" A greedy look flashed across Hu Xue Hui's brother-in-law's eyes. He became even more greedy as he looked at the swaying bodies of the two sisters in front of him.

… ….

The current Ji Feng naturally did not know of the events that happened. Even if he did, he would not have thought too much about it. Hu Xuehui's brother-in-law was obviously not an honest man. It would be strange if he did not get any ideas after following him for such a long period of time!

Furthermore, Ji Feng had no relationship with Hu Xuehui. In Ji Feng's mind, Hu Xuehui was already on the list of people he absolutely did not want to welcome, so why would he care about Hu Xuehui's situation?

Ji Feng came to the ticket office. He first queued up to buy a ticket for the next day, then went to the bank and took out all the money from the card and put it into his bag. There was a total of sixty thousand yuan.

After doing this, Ji Feng returned to the school. Since he had nothing else to do, he took out a new textbook and started to study first.

Regarding the knowledge from these universities, Ji Feng was actually more knowledgeable than those from senior high. Moreover, most of them were just theoretical knowledge. As long as he memorized them, it would be enough. With Ji Feng's memory, these things naturally wouldn't be difficult for him.

Thus, in almost a day's time, Ji Feng had actually finished reading a book. If others saw his learning speed, they would definitely be scared out of their wits.

The next morning, Ji Feng woke up and washed his face. Since the exhibition opened at eight in the morning, Ji Feng had to go in early. If he was late, there would be a lot of people.

This time, Ji Feng finally entered the exhibition hall openly, without having to worry about being stopped.

As soon as he entered the exhibition hall, Ji Feng's horizons were immediately opened. Perhaps it was because Jiang Prefecture was the center of the economy, but just the exhibition hall itself was built in a magnificent manner. Walking into it was like walking into a palace, dazzling everyone's eyes.

This was the first time Ji Feng had seen such a structure, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Could it be that so many people yearned for such a place like a big city?

Although he was amazed, Ji Feng did not show it on his face. Very quickly, his gaze shifted from the construction of the exhibition hall to the jadeite stones displayed on the walls.

On each piece of jade, there was a sign explaining the origin, as well as the price and current price of the jade.

According to the pictures on the internet, Ji Feng was able to recognize all kinds of jadeite from different levels, such as violet jadeite, water type jade and even lower grade jadeite. As for the old sc.u.mbags, Ji Feng had also seen a few of them. Upon seeing them, Ji Feng couldn't help but be drawn to them.

People were reluctant to look away from the gla.s.s jadeite that was like a emerald.

Of course, apart from the appearance of these top-grade jade pieces, there was also the price. It was only the size of a fingernail, but it was a gla.s.s jadeite. Ji Feng found it hard to believe that it could reach a height of six to seven hundred thousand yuan. Isn't the price of these items too outrageous?

A small pendant might be able to buy a house!

Ji Feng couldn't help but sigh. Even though the price of this jade had been raised a lot, but such a beautiful and expensive item was indeed very attractive.

He walked around the exhibition hall, but he had already seen most of the varieties that were introduced online. Of course, he mainly looked at the jade, because the jade was difficult to grasp and was temporarily useless to him.

"The ticket money isn't spent in vain!" Ji Feng silently thought in his heart. Not only had he gained a lot of knowledge from this trip, he had also learned about the prices of various grades of jades. Ji Feng was able to see quite a few things from the description tokens beside the jades.

Based on the information he had gathered online, Ji Feng had a general idea of the market price and some basic trading rules.

After another round, Ji Feng made sure nothing was left behind before he walked out of the exhibition hall. He was prepared to wait for the next two days.

Ji Feng thought of Hu Xuehui. Since her brother-in-law was here as well, this proved that the fat man must be doing the same thing. Then, would he run into them at the trade fair two days from now?

Ji Feng did not have the slightest good impression of Hu Xuehui and the other two. He did not want to bicker with them at the trade fair, nor did he want them to mock him.

"It's fine if you don't want to provoke me, but otherwise …" This was the first time that Ji Feng wanted to bully the trio with his family background, and this was also the first time that he planned to bully others with his power!

This was because Ji Feng could no longer tolerate it!

For the next two days, Ji Feng stayed in the dorm. He didn't go anywhere and only continued reading. He studied economics and management, so his freshman course was very shallow. It was all about basic theories, but there were also some nouns and explanations that Ji Feng firmly memorized in his mind.

Very quickly, the trade fair officially arrived. Ji Feng also became cautious. This was the first time he had begun his own career. He absolutely could only win, he absolutely could not lose.
