Chapter 556 - Xuanwu Jade Pendant
Chapter 556 Xuanwu Jade Pendant
As expected, Dong Bicheng was very satisfied with his attitude. He nodded and said, “Zhao, this is a good idea. Service is also a part of our work.”
He turned back and said to Qin Haodong, “Mr. Qin, if you have any requirements, just tell them. Please, don’t stand on ceremony.”
Zhao Guoyin breathed a sigh of relief and following with a flattering face, he said, “Yes, please don’t stand on ceremony. If you have any requests, just tell me.”
“In that case, I won’t stand on ceremony.” Qin Haodong said, “There are a lot of guests today, and there are many cars as well. Director Zhao, could you please have these cars parked properly?”
“Okay, no problem. I’ll handle it. I’ll definitely do it well for you, Mr. Qin.”
Zhao Guoyin answered and left in a hurry. He brought his men to the parking lot and helped the staff of Daddy Security Company command the traffic.
“Damn it, what are they doing?”
Xue Zhendi fiercely threw the binoculars in his hand to the ground.
No wonder he was angry. First, he found gangsters to work for him, but when they got there, they danced around and even gave a red envelope to Qin Haodong.
Now he had used the power of legal means. As a result, the Deputy Director became a traffic officer and began to command the traffic.
“No, I have to get to the bottom of it. Otherwise, I can’t stand it.”
Then he took out his mobile phone and dialed Black Hawk’s number. But before he could speak, Black Hawk coldly said, “Xue, you tricked me, didn’t you? Didn’t you say that they have no background? It turned out that all the big bosses of gangsters were there.
“You have to give me back the money I had to use today or I won’t let you off!”
After saying that, Black Hawk hung up the phone with a loud bang, leaving Xue Zhendi with a dull face.
He didn’t expect that the person who used to call him brother would suddenly fall out with him and even asked him to pay. It meant that he would have to send money to the Lin’s Jewelry.
“Black Hawk, you son of a b*tch, I mistook you!”
Xue Zhendi first cursed fiercely, and then he called Zhao Guoyin.
He decided to make the first move this time. As soon as the phone was connected, he rushed to say, “Director Zhao, what’s going on here? Why are you working for him as a traffic officer?”
“It’s all because of you!”
Zhao Guoyin was full of anger. After all, he was the deputy director of a branch. But now he was reduced to being a servant of Qin Haodong, and this was all thanks to Xue Zhendi.
“I’m telling you, from now on, we’ll go our separate ways. In consideration of our past friendship, I’d like to remind you that you can’t afford to offend Lin’s Jewelry.”
He was in charge of the vehicles here, and he soon found out the situation of the guests of Lin’s Jewelry. They were all bosses with more than ten billion yuan assets, and Xue’s Jewelry could not afford to offend any one of them.
All these people were very respectful to Qin Haodong. It could be seen how powerful the young man’s background was.
Let alone Xue Zhendi, who was just a stupid trust fund baby, even if his father were alive he would not be a match for Lin’s Jewelry. The loss of business became an inevitable choice.
“I…”
Xue Zhen was completely dumbfounded when he heard the busy tone on the phone. He had never dreamt that Lin’s Jewelry would be so powerful. It was useless to use illegal or legal means. What else could he do?
“Devil Six, you are smart. Hurry up and think up something. Is there any other way?”
“I…” At this point, what could Devil Six do? He said, “You don’t have to worry about it. The Xue family has been running the store for so many years, and we have a lot of loyal customers. Although Lin’s Jewelry has rich people, it is new after all and it can’t compete with us in a pure business competition.
“As long as we cut down the price of our goods, I believe it won’t be long before they shut down.”
Xue Zhendi nodded. “You’re right. Tell the Xue’s Jewelry store to give a discount of 20%. I don’t believe that there’s no way we can beat the newly opened Lin’s Jewelry!”
At the Lin’s Jewelry, after the selected auspicious hour, firecrackers and drums were heard all over the place. The shop was officially open.
After making a short speech, Qin Haodong and Lin Momo led many guests to the sales hall. These people became the first wave of guests of Lin’s Jewelry.
As the host, Qin Haodong had prepared small gifts in advance. All the guests who came to congratulate received a jade pendant.
The pendant, by itself was not worth much money and the market price was about 100,000 yuan per piece. However, Qin Haodong had added the “Protective Spell” to it, which changed it to a completely different tier. The value immediately increased by dozens of times or even hundreds of times.
Lin’s Jewelry store was divided into five floors, each of which was decorated with all kinds of jewelry and jades. These jades were not only exquisitely made, but also made of the real materials from Myanmar, making people fond of them.
These guests were all experts who had travelled many places. They immediately saw that these jade items were extraordinary. As they admired the items, they would buy a few pieces from time to time.
Qin Haodong came to Kim Jihyun’s side and said, “Thank you for coming to support me.”
It had to be said that the girl had been very enthusiastic in the past two days. Yesterday at the banquet, she had stood on Qin Haodong’s side without hesitation and today, at the opening ceremony, she had sent a big red packet.
Kim Jihyun said bluntly, “You don’t have to thank me. You are the person that I respect most. If possible, I would like you to accept me as your apprentice.”
“It’s impossible for me to take you in as my apprentice.”
Qin Haodong refused Kim Jihyun without any hesitation. Then he took out a small jade bottle from his pocket and said, “This is for you. It will help you improve your cultivation.”
Kim Jihyun accepted the small jade bottle. She opened the lid and saw a crystal clear pill inside. The refreshing fragrance made her feel very comfortable from head to toe. With just one look, she knew that it was not an ordinary pill.
She asked, “What is this?”
“This is the Big Spirit Culturing Elixir refined by me. It will help you improve your cultivation.”
“Thank you!”
Kim Jihyun did not doubt Qin Haodong’s words at all as she put away the jade bottle carefully.
Qin Haodong took out another jade pendant and said, “This is for you, too!”
“Thank you!”
Kim Jihyun took the jade pendant and looked at it. She saw that there was a turtle-like monster carved on it and curiously asked, “This jade pendant is so strange. Why is there a turtle on it?”
Qin Haodong said, “In Huaxia, this is not a turtle, but a sacred beast called the Xuanwu. Among the four sacred beasts, it’s good at defense.
“I have cast a spell on this jade pendant. If you wear it on your waist, nobody would be able to hurt you except for the supreme power masters!”
Yesterday, he had seen a blood-red light flashing on Kim Jihyun’s forehead. He casually divined with his fingers and learned that this girl would soon face a sworn revenge, so he specially made this jade pendant as a present.
It could defend against the attacks of a supreme power master. Kim Jihyun was also a warrior and she was very clear about the value of this jade pendant as she quickly said, “This is too valuable!”
Qin Haodong said, “It’s fate that we met. Just keep it.”
Qin Haodong decided to help her because no matter where this girl came from, she was still a good person.
“Thank you, Mr. Qin!”
Kim Jihyun carefully tied the jade pendant to her waist.
After giving Kim Jihyun a gift, Qin Haodong walked to Maldini Jr.
He took out a silk box and opened it and inside it was a jade carving. Maldini Jr. believed in God and this jade carving was the sculpture of God, which was specially prepared for him.
And Qin Haodong had also added a talisman of peace and a talisman of good luck on it. He didn’t use the money-gathering talisman because the Maldini family was so rich that if they got any richer, other people would have no way to live.
Maldini Jr. said excitedly, “Dear Qin, thank you very much. I like this gift very much.”
Qin Haodong also took out another box with a small jade bottle which contained three Physique-Improving Pills.
“This is for Mr. Maldini. I hope he will be healthy.”
“Thank you. Thank you so much!”
Compared to the jade statue, Maldini Jr. cared more about Qin Haodong’s pills. So he put it away as if he had found a precious treasure.
Although he had given a red packet worth hundreds of millions of yuan today, with this bottle of pills, he felt that he had still made a profit.
Just as Qin Haodong was about to walk over to Ye Qing, Lin Momo hurriedly came over to him.
“Momo, what’s the matter?” Qin Haodong asked.
Lin Momo said, “The Xue’s Jewelry is giving a discount of 20%. This is obviously aimed at us.”
Qin Haodong’s face darkened and he said in a cold voice, “It doesn’t matter. Since they want to play, let’s play with them.”
With his experience, how could he not see that those two groups of people earlier had been brought over by the Xue’s Jewelry? It was because he was here that they could not make any trouble.
Since his opponent had attacked him repeatedly, Qin Haodong could only be ruthless.
Just then, his cell phone in his pocket rang. He looked at it and found it was a call from Liu Hankun, the boss of Jade Gang in Myanmar.
He pressed the answer button, and Liu Hankun’s excited voice came from the other side of the phone, “Mr. Qin, the first batch of raw gemstones from our mine has been transported out. The quality is very good, and it’s not inferior to the raw gemstones of the old mine at all.”
Qin Haodong said happily, “Yes, I’ve just opened a jewelry shop in Shanghai and I need raw gemstones.”
Liu Hankun said, “No problem. I’ll ship this batch of raw gemstones to you right away. They will definitely satisfy you.”
Qin Haodong asked, “Does the Xue’s Jewelry in Shanghai also buy raw gemstones from you?”
“Of course, as long as the raw gemstones are from Myanmar, they must have been passed through our Jade Gang.”
Liu Hankun suddenly realized something and queried, “Mr. Qin, did the Xue’s Jewelry offend you? Do you want me to stop their raw gemstones supply? As long as you want that, I guarantee that the Xue’s Jewelry Shop will not get a single raw gemstone in the future.”
“Then do it!”
It was impolite not to return the favor, and Qin Haodong was also not a good man. Since Xue’s Jewelry had been playing dirty tricks one after another, it was no wonder that he was taking drastic measures against Xue’s Jewelry.
After hanging up the phone, he told Lin Momo about the raw gemstone mine, and then said, “Now we have enough supply of raw gemstones, and it’s all free. Since the Xue’s Jewelry discount is 20%, we can discount up to 50%. Let’s see who can win in this price war.”
In fact, even before this price war, Xue’s Jewelry had already lost. Qin Haodong had a large mine on his side. He would make profits no matter how much he sold and how low. Xue’s Jewelry was not a match for him at all.
Lin Momo left with a smile on her face. At this time, Ye Qing, in a long dress, came over.
She smiled and said, “Little brother, everyone received a gift. Where is my gift?”
Qin Haodong took out a small jade bottle and handed it to her. He said, “Of course I won’t forget my sister. This is the Spirit-Restoring Pill refined by me. It can help you break through the bottleneck.”
Surprised, Ye Qing asked, “Do you know what cultivation level I’m currently at?”
