"Yes." Zhang Chongshan nodded quickly and then left Long Yinglan's side.
In Chen Fan's car, Qin Shuran held the wooden box in her hand.
Seeing that Chen Fan beside her remained silent, Qin Shuran slowly hugged Chen Fan's arm and asked softly, "Why do I feel that the manager named Zhou Huiren today was a bit off? They don't seem to want you to win."
Chen Fan nodded slightly, "Especially the two phone calls he made to the side. His attitude changed greatly before and after, as if someone was ordering him to do things."
Qin Shuran frowned, "As the general manager of Ruixiang Jewelry, there are probably only two people who can order him around."
Chen Fan and Qin Shuran exchanged a glance, and the answer was already in their minds.
"But why would they do this?" Qin Shuran was puzzled, unable to figure out their motives.
After all, Ruixiang Jewelry was Qin Hongwei's property. What good would it do him to do this?
Chen Fan shook his head slightly, "I don't know, but there must be some interests involved, otherwise they wouldn't do this."
Qin Shuran was a little worried, "Then what about the blind auction later?"
Chen Fan smiled faintly and reached out to stroke Qin Shuran's hair, "Don't worry, I have a plan."
After about half an hour's drive, Chen Fan and Qin Shuran arrived at the jade market.
"Mr. Chen, Young Miss!" At this moment, Zhou Huiren and others, who had been waiting at the entrance for Chen Fan and Qin Shuran, quickly walked up to Chen Fan.
Chen Fan asked, "Has the blind auction started yet?"
Zhou Huiren quickly nodded, "Yes, Mr. Chen, other jewelry companies have already started bidding."
"Then let's hurry." Saying that, Chen Fan walked towards the activity hall of the jade market.
Entering the activity hall.
It was dazzling, filled with rough stones.
However, the rough stones here were a bit different, because each rough stone was marked with a number, and each rough stone had its own display stand.
"How is this blind auction bid?" Chen Fan asked Zhou Huiren, looking at the hundreds of rough stones in the activity hall.
Zhou Huiren stepped forward and explained, "Mr. Chen, for this blind auction, we just need to record the numbers of these rough stones, write down the bidding price, and submit it at the bidding center. The highest bidder wins."
"Then how much raw stone do we need to purchase this time?" Chen Fan asked again.
"Two billion, all of it," Zhou Huiren said, holding up two fingers.
Chen Fan immediately fell into thought, looking at the dazzling rough stones in front of him with a slight frown.
"Mr. Chen, what's wrong?" Zhou Huiren asked anxiously when he saw Chen Fan's worried expression.
Chen Fan said in a low voice, as if afraid of being overheard, "My luck isn't always good. If I buy twenty billion worth of raw stones, I might lose money."
Hearing this, Zhou Huiren's originally dim eyes instantly lit up. This was probably the best news he had heard today.
After Chen Fan left the jade market at noon, Qin Xiaotong appeared before him and gave him an ultimatum, telling Zhou Huiren that if he couldn't make Chen Fan lose all twenty billion and cause Ruixiang Jewelry to suffer huge losses, he would be kicked out of Ruixiang Jewelry.
This was why Zhou Huiren's expression had not been very good since he saw Chen Fan.
But now, Zhou Huiren was extremely excited. If Chen Fan hadn't been there, he would have jumped for joy.
Controlling his emotions, Zhou Huiren quickly said, "Mr. Chen, please bid as you please, and don't feel any burden."
Chen Fan looked at Zhou Huiren in surprise and asked, "Really?"
Zhou Huiren nodded quickly, "Of course. Please choose with confidence."
Chen Fan immediately laughed, "Hahaha, if you had said so earlier, I wouldn't have been worried all this time. I didn't even eat well at noon, worrying about this matter."
Zhou Huiren's face was almost blooming with smiles, and he said again, "Mr. Chen, don't worry. With your status, who would blame you? Don't worry, even if these twenty billion are lost, no one will trouble you."
"Okay." Chen Fan responded and walked towards the hundreds of rough stones with Qin Shuran.
As he passed a waiter carrying drinks, Chen Fan even took a cup of drink, with the straw in his mouth, looking wild and unrestrained.
Zhou Huiren, holding a notebook behind him, followed Chen Fan excitedly.
"Look, there are quite a few people gathered around that rough stone. Let's go take a look." Chen Fan led Qin Shuran over.
Indeed, there were many people standing around the rough stone labeled A101.
However, when they saw Chen Fan approaching, they all parted a path.
Chen Fan had become famous today. Everyone knew that Ruixiang Jewelry had hired an incredibly arrogant Master Chen, and this Master Chen was also very young.
"For this A101, let's bid 10 million." Chen Fan pointed at the rough stone and said loudly, without any concealment.
Zhou Huiren, who was following behind Chen Fan with a notebook, stumbled and almost fell to the ground.
Zhao Zhihong and the others were also stunned, thinking they had misheard.
Although the rough stone A101 was of good quality, it was not worth 10 million!
A rough jade stone of this quality was worth at most around 3 million, but they didn't expect Chen Fan to bid 10 million, which was more than triple the price.
The bosses of other jewelry companies around were also so shocked that their jaws almost dropped.
"What's wrong, Mr. Zhou? Do you have any objections?" Chen Fan asked Zhou Huiren, who was looking horrified behind him.
How could Zhou Huiren have any objections? He was too happy to care. He quickly waved his hand, "No, no, everything is up to Mr. Chen."
Chen Fan's lips curved into an arc, and then he walked to another rough stone, "This rough stone, 20 million!"
"This one, 18 million!"
"This one, 10 million!"
...
In just a few minutes, Chen Fan had already spent over 500 million.
Zhou Huiren, who had been recording, was trembling with his hand.
Zhao Zhihong and the others who were following behind them were numb with shock all the way, following behind them with blank expressions. However, Tang Yuchen took out her phone and secretly started recording a video.
Chen Fan also attracted the attention of many people at the scene.
Everyone was dumbfounded, startled by Chen Fan's reckless bidding.
After a while, Chen Fan bought several more rough jade stones at astonishing prices.
Finally, Chen Fan's steps stopped beside the largest rough jade stone at the gem-guessing大会. This rough stone weighed at least two to three tons.
Chen Fan's lips curved into an arc, and he asked Zhou Huiren behind him, "This stone is so big, it must be very valuable. Let's use the remaining money to buy it."
"Ah?! Ten, ten billion, to buy it?!" This time, even Zhou Huiren was a little flustered!
