On this visit, Su Heming came not only to express his gratitude but also to fulfill his promise by bringing the set of jade ornaments he had mentioned earlier. Originally, he planned to send a younger brother to deliver them, but Lu Jiaxin's advice had saved him from being duped, and he was so grateful that he decided to come in person.
Upon opening the box, Lu Jiaxin saw that it contained hairpins, hairpins of different sorts, pendent jewels, splendid hair ornaments, bracelets, necklaces, rings, and earrings.
While holding a hairpin, Lu Jiaxin asked, "How much money did your friend owe you?"
"Five thousand eight hundred."
"Do you know this set of jewelry is made of mutton-fat jade? I'm not sure about the current market price, but if it's sold in Hong Kong, fetching several hundred thousand wouldn't be a problem."
Xue Mao's eyes nearly popped out of his sockets.
