Inheritance of Two Trillion

Chapter 1377: Chapter 1258: Bai Yuefeng Admits Defeat_3

”Oh my god, this... this is amazing! Can you paint one for me too? I’ll pay five hundred bucks!”

”Me too! I want one! I’m going to frame it and hang it on my wall!”

The crowd gathered around, marveling, and soon enough, someone actively requested a painting!

The middle-aged man snapped out of his daze, gulped, his eyes flickering with uncertainty, and quickly said to Bai Xiaosheng, ”I’ll take this painting! Here’s five hundred bucks! You can leave now!”

On one hand, the painting was indeed remarkable!

On the other hand, this Asian guy seemed ready to destroy his business!

If he kept painting like this, how was he supposed to make any money?

Bai Xiaosheng chuckled, stood up, accepted the five hundred bucks handed over by the man, and left, turning away amidst the murmurs of regret from the crowd.

Wait, he just made five hundred bucks?

Bai Yuefeng was astonished, but even more so by the painting itself.

The painting really was something special!

The two women followed Bai Xiaosheng.

Bai Yuefeng couldn’t help but exclaim, ”Hey, why don’t we go buy some supplies and set up a stall here too? Who knows, we might make a quick buck within half a day!”

She was getting excited too.

Bai Xiaosheng grinned, waved the five hundred bucks in his hand, and said, ”We have our startup capital now! No need for low-end manual labor anymore. Naturally, it’s time to buy and sell!”

His words piqued Wei Xuelian’s interest. She followed behind him, smiling with anticipation.

Bai Yuefeng was curious as well.

Was Bai Xiaosheng really planning to use such a tiny amount of money to do business?

As they watched, Bai Xiaosheng walked to a street vendor selling quirky figurines.

The vendor was a plump old man, surrounded by large houses, clearly unhurried financially, yet entertained by tinkering with such items.

But evidently, these trinkets weren’t particularly easy to sell.

Bai Xiaosheng asked the price and directly decided to buy three of them in a bundle.

The old man wasn’t willing to offer any discounts.

Bai Xiaosheng ended up spending fifty bucks on the figurines.

”Fifty bucks for three pieces of this junk? Didn’t you see the mocking look in that old man’s eyes when he sold them to you? Bai Yuefeng grumbled in a hushed tone, ”Are you thinking you’re doing charity? Come on, don’t be fooled by his plain clothes; he’s got big houses behind him! He’s hardly a homeless man!”

Bai Xiaosheng chuckled, moved a bit farther away, and handed her two of the figurines. ”These two were just bundled in; they’re useless.”

He then yanked off the button from the belly of the third figurine and tossed the remaining toy to Bai Yuefeng.

Bai Yuefeng grimaced in disgust and immediately threw the toy aside.

”The real value lies in this button!” Wei Xuelian, gentle and virtuous, quickly grasped his idea.

Bai Xiaosheng inspected the button closely and grinned, ”Exactly!”

A button that seemed at first glance plain and ordinary—how could it be worth anything?

Bai Yuefeng wasn’t convinced.

The three of them—Wei Xuelian, Bai Yuefeng, and Bai Xiaosheng—walked on until they reached a stall mid-way down the street.

It showcased antique-style items, with the vendor idly inspecting his treasures through eyeglasses fitted with magnifiers.

The prices on the items were shockingly high.

”Could he be here for treasure hunting?” Bai Yuefeng wondered privately.

The stall had barely any visitors; the prices were just too exorbitant.

It seemed like the vendor wasn’t even trying to sell, but instead showing off, basking in the glory of his precious collection.

Bai Xiaosheng stepped forward and handed the button directly to the vendor.

The vendor blinked in surprise before accepting it, puzzled.

He rubbed the button with his fingers, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

”This is a button from an 18th-century nobleman’s ceremonial attire, made from Tridacna material, with a fine inscription saying, ’My love always with you.’ I’m asking for one thousand five hundred and fifty US dollars—a fixed price.” Bai Xiaosheng said with a sly smile.

Turns out, he had come to sell the button!

Bai Yuefeng stared at him in disbelief and whispered nervously to Wei Xuelian, ”Is he out of his mind? This button—he’s flipping it for a profit of fifteen hundred bucks? Who would be dumb enough to buy something like this?”

Before she could finish her thought, the vendor had already raised his head, his eyes gleaming as he looked at Bai Xiaosheng, and said decisively, ”Deal!”

Bai Yuefeng was left speechless.

Wei Xuelian couldn’t hold back her laughter.

Her Bai Xiaosheng was just that brilliant!

From there, Bai Xiaosheng led them through various stalls for the next hour, turning their initial fifty US dollars into seven thousand!

That was a massive profit!

All this, when they had started with absolutely nothing!

Even by the end of it all, Bai Yuefeng still found it hard to believe.

Wei Xuelian thought even more highly of her boyfriend now—he was incredible!

Within that single hour, she’d witnessed at least a handful of slick business tactics used by only the shrewdest entrepreneurs!

”If he had enough startup capital, imagine how much money this guy could make!” Bai Yuefeng’s gaze toward Bai Xiaosheng completely transformed.

”Come on, let’s grab a delicious meal.” Bai Xiaosheng said with a bold gesture, laughing freely.

Wei Xuelian smiled sweetly, stepping forward to link arms with Bai Xiaosheng.

A man as capable as Bai Xiaosheng certainly made her proud.

Bai Yuefeng thought she couldn’t possibly be any more surprised.

But the surprises didn’t end there.

When the three of them arrived at the largest mall in town, they found an event underway.

Bai Xiaosheng led the trio as they wove through the activities.

With ten consecutive three-point shots in one minute, they won a pair of luxury brand shoes...

With one punch lighting up the boxing machine, they secured a celebratory edition dress...

With lightning-fast mental arithmetic skills, they earned a gourmet lunch at a high-end restaurant...

...

Their journey was accompanied by cheers from the onlookers, as they happily, effortlessly, walked away with an impressive haul of prizes.

And in the end, they hadn’t spent a single penny!

Bai Yuefeng was rendered speechless.

While savoring the extravagant French cuisine they had won, Bai Yuefeng couldn’t help but say to Wei Xuelian—

”Your boyfriend is amazing! Even with nothing, he can make life comfortable for you!”

”Tell me, where did you find him? Does he have any brothers you could introduce me to?”

Bai Yuefeng was fully convinced.
