Chapter 28 - Chapter 28: Generosity

After about ten minutes, a somewhat out of breath white-haired old man came over.

'Xiang, you said there are three pieces of the best jade here?' As soon as the white-haired old man arrived, he looked at Li Hang and asked anxiously.

Lin Yun found this scene a little funny.

This white-haired old man should be Zhang Lao, whom Li Hang just called on the phone. He called his boss Xiaohang, so he should be close to Li Hang.

However, he is in such a hurry, isn't he afraid that the seller will raise the price?

However, because of this, he has a little more goodwill towards this white-haired old man. A person like this should be someone who truly loves jade and will not play mind games in business. Businessmen like to meet people like this the most.

'Old Zhang, don't worry, here are the three pieces of jadeite, take a look...' Seeing the old man with white hair like this, Li Hang was also a little embarrassed, but he quickly pointed to the three pieces of jadeite on the table and said.

'This is... emerald?' The old man with white hair immediately looked at the three pieces of jadeite on the table, and the next moment his eyes widened in disbelief.

The old man with white hair's voice trembled a little, and his hands excitedly reached towards the three pieces of jadeite.

Lin Yun smiled slightly and didn't say anything.

He had been consulting the Universal Trading System and the information on jade on Blue Star, constantly comparing the two, and he knew that the emeralds the white-haired old man was talking about were the colour of these three jadeite pieces, not emerald gemstones.

'The colour is even...and the transparency is also very high...' As he kept looking at the three jadeite pieces with both hands, the white-haired old man's eyes became brighter and brighter.

'Old Zhang, what do you think these three jadeite pieces are worth?' Li Hang took the opportunity to ask.

'How can you put a price on something so good...' The white-haired old man's eyes widened as he glared at Li Hang, about to rebuke him, but then he thought of something and gave a wry smile, saying, "Forget it, things are made to be sold...'

'Well...this jade should be able to make six bracelets, a dozen ring faces, seven or eight pendants...this jade has a very nice shape, let me see, it should be able to be made into a decorative piece...and this jade..." The old man Zhang surveyed the three pieces of jade and mused.

'According to market prices, these three pieces of jade should be worth 23 million, 27 million, and 31 million respectively...' After a moment, Zhang Lao pointed at the three pieces of jade and looked at Li Hang and Lin Yun, and told them their respective prices.

'Young friend, are you the owner of these three pieces of jade? You must sell these three pieces of jade to Xiaohang!' Then, looking at Lin Yun, Zhang Lao rubbed his hands together and smiled.

'Mr Lin, I am willing to pay 20% more than the price Zhang Laoshi quoted for these three pieces of jade. What do you think?' Li Hang looked at Lin Yun and said with a smile.

Hearing Zhang Laoshi's words, Lin Yun was surprised.

23 million, 27 million, 31 million, which adds up to 81 million. This is 21 million more than the 60 million that Li Hang said. It's just three stones, but I never expected them to be so valuable.

Although Lin Yun knows that jade can store special energy and is valuable even among many civilizations in the universe, the problem is that many people on the Blue Star don't know about it, which is really crazy.

Just then, Lin Yun heard Li Hang's words, and his heart couldn't help but tremble again.

81 million. If I buy it at 20% more, that's 97 million... That's almost 100 million!

'Mr Lin, are you saying that you think the price is too low? I know that these three pieces of jade are all top-quality jade and very rare. If they are sold together in a big place, they might fetch an even better price. How about this, I'll increase the price by 10%...' Seeing that Lin Yun had been silent, Li Hang thought that Lin Yun was not satisfied with the price and gritted his teeth and said:

Buying at 30% above market price is a very high price. If you subtract the processing fee and publicity fee, he estimates that he won't make much money in the end...

However, he doesn't want to lose this connection with Lin Yun. If he can obtain a steady supply of high-end jade from Lin Yun, it will raise the profile of his gold and jewellery store, which will be an intangible asset.

'Mr Li, if you don't mind, how about I call you Brother Li?' Lin Yun came to his senses and looked at Li Hang, who was gritting his teeth slightly in front of him, and laughed.

Unexpectedly, he didn't have time to speak for a moment, and he actually let Li Hang raise the price by another ten percent. This ten percent was more than 8 million yuan. He didn't have time to speak for a moment, and it was actually so valuable... However, when he saw Li Hang gritting his teeth slightly, he knew that this price was a bit difficult for the other party.

If this is really the case, this is not a long-term way of doing business.

When doing business, very often, the gnashing of teeth on both sides is just a show. They say they are suffering a great loss, but in fact, they don't know how much they are making. However, Lin Yun knows that Li Hang's performance at the moment should be genuine.

Because just now, he purchased a miniature lie detector on the Universal Trading System. He intends to cooperate with Li Hang for a long time, so naturally, he wants to ascertain the other person's true character. He doesn't have the time or energy to judge, so he simply purchased a miniature lie detector on the Universal Trading System.

It only costs one spiritual energy point, which is nothing for Lin Yun, but it can be of great help in critical moments.

According to the lie detector's judgment, Li Hang's current performance should be the same as what he is thinking.

In other words, the price that Zhang Lao said earlier is indeed the market price, and then, the price that Li Hang is offering at the moment is indeed extremely high.

'No, I don't mind, I'm afraid you'll mind me, Brother Lin, I'll call you that from now on, how is that?' Li Hang was surprised and quickly said.

To be honest, if he had not judged that Lin Yun was probably the son of a major power, he might have already become friends with Lin Yun and called him brother, which would also be good for doing business. However, his judgment that Lin Yun was probably the son of a major power made him afraid to casually become friends with Lin Yun.

In case the other party had a high opinion of himself and looked down on him as a small family with a small business, and did not like him becoming friends with him like this, then he would lose face.

At this moment, Li Hang thought that perhaps his raised price had played a role, and that the other party truly recognised him as a person.

This made him very happy, and he deeply felt that the millions of dollars were well spent, allowing him to make friends with such a son of a powerful family, which could be an opportunity for him.

'Of course it's fine,' Lin Yun nodded with a smile, and continued, 'Brother Li, although I really want you to raise the price by another ten percent, I feel that it would be too much for you. Since we are like brothers, I naturally can't let you suffer too much. How about this, it's still a twenty percent price increase. If Brother Li is embarrassed, just give me some more discounts when I buy this hotel later.'

Li Hang was already in his forties, but upon hearing Lin Yun's words, he was still filled with enthusiasm.

In business nowadays, everyone is meticulous about every penny, not to mention over 8 million in real money.

If it were someone else, they would care nothing about your life or death, and would just take the over 8 million first.

No wonder he is the son of a powerful family, his words are full of heroism, over 8 million is nothing to him!

'Brother Lin, what are you talking about? It's just a hotel, it's not worth much, and since you also said that we are like brothers, I will give you this hotel!' Li Hang immediately said heroically.

Lin Yun was stunned. He didn't expect that he would give up a profit of more than 8 million yuan just because he didn't want to create a gap in their future cooperation, and that would give the other person the idea of giving him a hotel worth 10 to 20 million yuan.

Around them, Zhang Lao, Li Jiayun, and some waiters not far away were also dumbfounded.

This... is how you do business?

You're both giving up tens of millions of yuan, even hundreds of millions of yuan?

This is a lot of money, money that the average person may not earn in a lifetime!

'This won't do...' Lin Yun came to his senses and said hastily.

'I may not have as much money as you, but a hotel is nothing to me! If you recognise me as your big brother, don't say anything else, or you'll be slapping me in the face!' Li Hangxiang pretended to be furious.

'Well... okay...' The other party had already said what he had to say, so Lin Yun could only smile wryly and say.

Not far away, many waiters saw this scene and were envious and jealous.

Okay?

Is this okay?

What a great thing!

At this moment, they really wished they were Lin Yun, and their boss had given them this hotel!

Otherwise, it's just like the saying goes, 'When comparing people, one will die!'

The money they could never earn in their entire lives was, in the eyes of these rich people, something that could be given away casually!
