Reborn As Super Heiress

Chapter 142: Chapter 139 Scrap Recycling Plant

Su Jinyuan was a member of the S City Jade Association, and there were quite a few people from the S City Jade Association coming to gamble on stones this time. Su Jinyuan didn’t contact each one, but he knew that several association members had already arrived in Foshan.

So early in the morning, Su Jinyuan contacted one of them, Du Yuanwei, and told him about his purpose for coming to Pingzhou this time. He asked Du to take Su Qingqing and the other two to the jadeite public market.

Du Yuanwei had quite a bit of interaction with Su Jinyuan normally and was a very enthusiastic person.

This guy was still a bachelor in his thirties, and when he heard about taking three girls to the jadeite public market, he felt a sneaky thrill. He thought to himself that Su Jinyuan was indeed a good brother, giving him such a great opportunity! Without the slightest hesitation, he agreed immediately.

Poor Du Yuanwei had no idea that his good brother had set him up without a sound, and he didn’t realize how troublesome these three girls could be. For the next ten days or so, he was in a mix of pain and pleasure, enduring an otherworldly torment.

Huo Sining and Bai Yishan were, of course, in complete agreement with Su Jinyuan’s decision, even raising both hands in approval. After all, they dared not promise they wouldn’t go crazy buying rough stones themselves, and if Su Jinyuan saw them, it could lead to quite a storm.

...

As soon as Du Yuanwei received the call from Su Jinyuan, he hurried to the hotel where Su Jinyuan was staying, excited when he saw the three spirited girls.

Su Jinyuan knew exactly what this guy was like. Thirty-something, still a bachelor, he would turn into a wolf at the sight of a beautiful woman, wishing he could pounce on them right away.

But well, this fellow was all bark and no bite. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have stayed single for so many years.

Moreover, not one of these three women was easy to handle, especially his own sister. Du Yuanwei was just as excited now as he would be distressed later.

Thinking about his own frustration from yesterday, Su Jinyuan could almost imagine Du Yuanwei’s miserable state later, and he suddenly felt balanced inside.

A mischievous and schadenfreude gleam flashed through Su Jinyuan’s eyes. Brother, it’s every man for himself, sorry about this.

After receiving a phone call, Su Jinyuan left with two purchasing masters. He was said to be going to the outskirts to look at goods, and since strangers were not allowed to accompany them, Su Qingqing and the others could not follow and had to stay put in the South Sea District.

However, that didn’t stop Su Qingqing from buying rough stones. As soon as she arrived at Pingzhou Jade Street, her eyes shone with uncontrollable excitement.

Because just yesterday, she effortlessly won big with a piece of high-ice-type red “Fei”, with such a glorious achievement behind her, how could Su Qingqing control the impulse to buy rough stones?

“Quick, Ningning, let’s go back to that store we went to yesterday. If we can cut and win a few more pieces, then we’ll be rich! Haha…”

Su Qingqing eagerly pulled Huo Sining toward the store they visited yesterday to look at those brick-like stones.

Huo Sining was almost tempted to roll her eyes. Did this lady really think that every brick-like stone could produce jadeite? It’s already lucky to have found a piece of high-grade green, and now you want to catch another one unawares?

Su Qingqing was a simple person, without many cunning thoughts, and of course, she often took things for granted.

But in reality, when they arrived at the entrance of the store named “Jade Beauty”, they found that the hundreds of brick-like stones that had been laid out on the steps yesterday had all disappeared.

“What’s going on? Weren’t there lots of brick-like stones here yesterday? How come they’re gone?” Su Qingqing was puzzled.

The store owner, hearing Su Qingqing’s question, had a jubilant smile on his face, “Young lady, want to buy rough stones? The brick-like stones are gone. Someone bought a brick-like stone from my store yesterday, and it turned out to be high-ice-type red “Fei”. As a result, in the afternoon, those brick-like stones were snatched up. If you want to buy, we only have the full-gamble rough stones and half-gamble rough stones inside.”

“Ah?” Su Qingqing was immediately dumbfounded.

Huo Sining’s mouth also twitched involuntarily, realizing that there were quite a few people in the world just as simple-minded as Su Qingqing.

Of course, Su Qingqing would not give up just like that. Since the brick materials had sold out in this store, she would go to another one.

She turned around and headed for another shop; Huo Sining and the others followed her, not quick enough to stop her before she crouched down by the entrance, asking the shop owner for prices while starting to pick her choices.

That wasn’t the end of it; in just a moment’s time, she had actually climbed onto the pile of brick materials and began rummaging through them.

Huo Sining immediately covered his face with his hand, hardly bearing to look directly at Su Qingqing’s actions.

Du Yuanwei was also dumbstruck. He knew that Su Jinyuan’s sister was lively, but he had not expected her to be this bold.

He was stunned for two seconds before he realized the urgency of the situation.

Big sister, it’s fine to pick through the raw stone materials, but could you please not be so reckless? If you annoy the shop owner and get us all scolded, with so many people on this street, we’ll lose all our face!

Thinking that he still had to stay in Pingzhou for another ten days or half a month, Du Yuanwei certainly didn’t want to roll back to S City in disgrace over this trifle. He quickly pulled Su Qingqing out of the clutter of stones and gave the shop owner an embarrassed smile:

“Boss, my friend is a newbie and isn’t familiar with the rules of the trade; I’m really sorry!”

The shop owner’s face changed as he saw Su Qingqing climbing on top of the stones to select her materials, his heart aching. Miss, stepping on my raw materials like that can cause scratches!

However, seeing Su Qingqing’s delicate little face, he felt he couldn’t scold her. Especially after hearing that Su Qingqing was a layperson, he was inwardly frustrated and had no choice but to swallow the loss silently.

“Rules are rigid, but people are flexible. Every day, we have many rookies come here to try their luck at stone gambling. There are plenty of young ladies like you. If you need, our shop can provide a flashlight and magnifying glass, but you can only look and touch, no wiping the stones. Standing on top of the stones, if it reveals any green, it’s unclear who it would belong to, so it’s better to be careful.”

The shop owner spoke rather kindly, but his face was green, clearly frightened by Su Qingqing’s aggressive behavior.

Su Qingqing’s face turned red, and she uncomfortably stuck out her tongue.

After picking through the pile of raw materials for ten minutes and struggling to find one that looked right, Su Qingqing turned back to Huo Sining and shook her head. The group then left.

Seeing that the group had gone, the shop owner heaved a sigh of relief, quickly wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and had the expression of one who had survived a great disaster.

“If you’re looking to buy brick materials, I can take you to a place.”

Du Yuanwei came to the Pingzhou stone gambling event every year, so he was very familiar with the Jade Street area.

Seeing how set Su Qingqing and the others were on selecting brick materials, he thought these women were just playing around, and he felt reassured in his heart.

He didn’t want to waste time on Jade Street anymore, so he took Huo Sining and the others through a series of turns and arrived at a waste material recycling factory.
