Guo Xuyang took what Pi Xiaoqian said to heart.
Although he wasn't particularly concerned about these raw stones, with Xia Li always helping him manage them, he still had some understanding of the jade output.
He hadn't expected Wang Yu to say such a thing. Had something been done improperly somewhere, allowing someone to exploit a loophole?
Old Xu continued to examine each piece of jade meticulously. He could identify them at a glance.
This was all thanks to the platform Guo Xuyang provided him.
Ever since his nephew started working with him, he had been directly handing over the roughs he cut to his nephew for post-processing.
It was precisely because of this relationship, this trust, that Old Xu's nephew had ulterior motives when polishing these jade pieces, allowing the waste scraps to flow into the market.
Coupled with the deliberate promotion by some people, his jade achieved great sales.
These were all things Guo Xuyang was unaware of.
Regarding the jade from Kyoto and Shanghai, Xiao Xu never dared to touch them, knowing that a short-sighted approach was not advisable.
Moreover, he had already made a fortune from these jade scraps.
Guo Xuyang perceived the entire situation with a moment of reflection. However, he did not expose Xiao Xu's little tricks.
With his vast empire, he found these scraps insignificant.
Xiao Xu's actions were not problematic; he hadn't stolen any of Guo Xuyang's jade. Instead, he collected the jade fragments removed during his work into bags.
After returning, he processed these fragments using special techniques and sold them as handicrafts.
Of course, he also took some jade that could be processed into gem settings.
Strictly speaking, these gem settings could not be sold, as in Guo Xuyang's view, they were all flawed products.
However, after Xiao Xu meticulously polished them and sold them to some jewelers at below-market prices, he could still earn a considerable amount.
Guo Xuyang greatly admired Xiao Xu's methods.
It indicated that he was someone who was good at discovering opportunities, and moreover, his craftsmanship was truly excellent.
But he wondered how Wang Yu discovered these things. Did she also possess supernatural abilities?
Previously, he had only felt that Wang Yu was Jiang Wu Xi's classmate, that she was beautiful, and coupled with a sense of guilt towards Pi Xiaoqian, he had introduced her to Pi Xiaoqian.
Now, it seemed that Wang Yu was no ordinary person. He hadn't discovered these things Xiao Xu was doing, so how did Wang Yu find out and even warn him?
Guo Xuyang couldn't help but become interested in Wang Yu. He wanted to find an opportunity to test her, to see if this woman truly had supernatural abilities.
It was inconvenient for him to test Wang Yu in front of Pi Xiaoqian now.
"Fatty, when are you planning to go back?"
"I want to leave tomorrow. I'll see if Lü Liang has set a date during dinner. If he has, I'll need to go back and prepare."
"What preparation is needed? Just take Wang Yu with you directly then.
Let Xiao Xi handle the initial work; her team will help us sort out everything."
"You're not going to come back as soon as you get there, are you? You've finally gone out, so shouldn't you look around a bit?"
"What you're saying makes sense. Let's go together then, and visit the scenic spots along the way."
"Scenic spots are fine, but mainly I want to experience foreign customs."
"If that's the case, you can't bring Wang Yu. Otherwise, you'll regret getting married a bit too early," Guo Xuyang said with a smile.
"What do you mean, Mr. Guo? Are you starting to dislike me now?" Wang Yu, who was standing nearby, was displeased.
