Chapter 85: I’ve Got the Good Genes From You
“Sure. According to the rules of your competition, all the jades on Jiang Zhong’s side now belong to Ms. Gu.”
The vice president despised Jiang Zhong’s behavior, so he made this judgment very quickly.
When Jiang Zhong heard this, he was instantly enraged. He roared, “How dare you! I’ll see who dares to touch my jades. Gu Qingchen, if you’re not afraid of death, you can give it a try!”
Jiang Zhong finally revealed his tyrannical nature. Although this was not all of his wealth, he had spent a lot of money to prepare for this competition.
He had spent tens of dollars of money on raw stones, and he had even spent a lot of money to buy a lot of half-bet raw stones. Now that his raw stones had been taken away by Gu Qingchen, how could he not angry.!!
“Jiang Zhong, according to the rules of the competition, these jades indeed belong to Miss Gu Qingchen. I don’t care who you are or what kind of backing you have, but if you lose in our competition, even if the emperor himself comes, he has to abide by the rules! If you make any trouble, don’t blame me for getting someone to throw you out! Moreover, Young Master Rong of the Rong Group had called long ago. He also knows the situation here. Young Master Rong said that if someone refuses to admit defeat, that person would be going against him! Now, do you want to oppose Young Master Rong?”
The vice-president was also a person with a temper and status. Jiang Zhong had first bribed the members of the association, and now he wanted to go back on his word. He had long disliked Jiang Zhong.
When everyone saw Jiang Zhong like this, they began to discuss among themselves. Their words were full of disdain.
“Humph, if you can’t afford to lose, then why gamble with Mr. Ding? You’re embarrassing yourself.”
“That’s right. He actually used underhanded tricks. Luckily, the members of the association are reliable. Otherwise, he would have really gotten his way.”
“Everyone, keep your eyes open. Don’t interact with Jiang Zhong in the future. Such a bad character and despicable behavior is worse than being a hoodlum.”
“That’s right. When I return, I must warn my peers so that they won’t be unaware of Jiang Zhong’s actions and be schemed against by him when the time comes.”
Jiang Zhong listened to everyone’s unrestrained discussion in front of him and made him feel extremely uncomfortable. He suddenly felt like his entire face was burning. Being stabbed in the back right in front of him, it was like a torturing to him.
Most importantly, he was afraid of Young Master Rong! He did not expect Young Master Rong to interfere in the matters of the jade trade fair. It was really a bad sign!
There were many people here. No matter how unwilling he was, he would not be able to gain any benefits. Humph, he did not believe that Gu Qingchen would not return to City Y. When they reached City Y, he would definitely teach Gu Qingchen a lesson.
“Good! Very good! Gu Qingchen, I will remember you.”
After saying that, Jiang Zhong flicked his sleeves and left in large strides.
He really could not stay here any longer. This time, he had actually suffered a loss. He had fallen into the hands of a little girl. If word got out, how would he survive.
Therefore, he would definitely not let Gu Qingchen and Ding Hao off.
Jiang Zhong’s eyes darkened, and he began to make a new plan. “Gu Qingchen, I’m not letting you off!”
After Jiang Zhong left, the atmosphere finally became lively again. However, Gu Yuanchuan was worried. As Gu Qingchen’s father, he was very worried about his daughter’s safety.
The look in Jiang Zhong’s eyes before he left, and those harsh words made him feel uneasy. He worried that Jiang Zhong would harm his daughter.
After Jiang Zhong left, all the jade that was extracted belonged to Gu Qingchen. Together with Gu Qingchen’s own jade, she could be said to be the winner of this competition.
Many people began to express their desire to buy Gu Qingchen’s jades. Unfortunately, Gu Qingchen did not sell any of them. She only kept it a secret and said that she would hold an auction in City Y later.
As soon as these words were said, many people had the idea of going to City Y. They all expressed that when Gu Qingchen was ready to auction, she must not forget to inform them.
These people all left their business cards for Gu Qingchen before leaving reluctantly.
What Gu Qingchen did not know was that these onlookers would spread the news about this matter after they went back. They were saying that she was a genius. Very quickly, Gu Qingchen became slightly famous in the jade world. As long as the name “Gu Qingchen” was mentioned, people would know who it was.
Gu Qingchen did not expect this. As expected, word of mouth publicity was very effective.
Gu Qingchen found someone from the association to handle the transportation procedures. The people from the association also insured this batch of jade and sent more people to carry out the transportation.
When Gu Qingchen left, many people were waiting to shake hands with her, hoping to get lucky. At first, Gu Qingchen shook hands with people out of politeness, but who knew that there were more and more people. Gu Qingchen could only hurry back to the hotel with her father and Ding Hao.
Ding Hao’s face was full of smiles. He had been suppressing his anxiety for the past few days, but this time, he could finally feel relieve.
“Ms. Gu, you helped me again this time. I don’t even know how to thank you.”
Ding Hao really admired Gu Qingchen at this moment. Gu Qingchen had helped him many times. He would remember this favor in his heart, and he would definitely repay her someday.
“No worries, Boss Ding. It’s a win-win situation for both of us. Isn’t it?”
Gu Qingchen had saved Ding Hao’s career and accumulated a large amount of assets for herself. Of course, Gu Qingchen had something else to say. She wanted Ding Hao to owe her something.
When Ding Hao owed more and more and could not repay her, she could accept him as a matter of course.
Back in the room, Gu Yuanchuan, who had been silent the whole time, finally spoke.
“Chenchen, what happened today?”
Ding Hao was blinded by the victory and directly ignored some details. However, Gu Yuanchuan was different. Although he was happy, he was more concerned about his daughter.
Today’s matter was definitely not that simple.
Gu Qingchen did not hide it from her father. There was no need to hide it from her family.
“Jiang Zhong had already bribed the person from the association a few days ago. He was going to replace all the raw stones that I bought with poor-quality stones. Then, I found out about it, so I decided to play along and let Jiang Zhong dig a hole for himself before jumping into it.”
Gu Yuanchuan frowned. He had just heard about Jiang Zhong’s trap. He just did not understand how his daughter did it.
“Since he had already made a deal with the person from the association, why would that person suddenly betray him today?”
Gu Qingchen smiled mysteriously and said, “Money makes the mare go, doesn’t it? Since he can help Jiang Zhong for money, he can also betray Jiang Zhong for money and stop helping Jiang Zhong.”
Gu Qingchen paused and then continued, “Jiang Zhong only gave him 50,000 dollars, and I gave him a million dollars. I only asked him to abide by the association’s rules and not help Jiang Zhong. On one hand, he only gets 50,000 dollars for taking risks and breaking the law. On the other hand, he gets 1,000,000 dollars for obeying the rules. Normal people know how to choose.”
After Gu Qingchen finished speaking, Gu Yuanchuan’s eyes widened as he looked at his daughter. His expression was as if he was looking at an alien.
After a long while, Gu Yuanchuan took a deep breath and sighed, “The younger generation had surpassed the old generation! I didn’t expect that after decades of doing business, I couldn’t see through it as well as you did. Chenchen, you are indeed good at doing business. It seems that I don’t have to worry about you in the future!”
Gu Qingchen smiled and said proudly, “I’ve got the good genes from you. I can’t help It!”
Gu Yuanchuan was amused by her words. What he didn’t know was that Gu Qingchen still had something to say.
She knew Jiang Zhong’s plan because she had read his mind. The matter of bribing the man at the association was not only solved with money.
