The owner hadn't even spoken yet, but these people seemed to have already decided on the distribution rights of the jade.
"What do you mean?" Dong Qimai asked Su Fan, confused.
"We'll talk about who to sell the jade to later. This young man made a bet with me just now, and the stakes haven't been settled yet," Su Fan said, looking at the clerk from Yubao Xuan.
The young clerk's heart sank. He had thought Su Fan might be blinded by money and forget about it, but he hadn't expected him to bring it up again.
"Uncle, I..." The clerk looked at Dong Qimai with a troubled expression.
This clerk was Dong Qimai's nephew, sent to him for training.
"What bet?" Dong Qimai frowned, looking at his nephew.
His nephew was a good-for-nothing, and his father had finally sent him here for some experience, only for him to cause trouble again.
"Kowtow and call him 'Dad,' we all heard it. Don't try to renege!" The person involved was too embarrassed to speak, but the onlookers weren't ones to shy away from a spectacle.
"Dong Wang! Are you trying to drive me mad! If your father knew, he'd break your legs when you get back!" Dong Qimai immediately berated Dong Wang, disappointed.
"Gentlemen, I don't care about your family matters. I just want to hear him kneel and call me 'Dad'," Su Fan didn't want to waste any more time. He'd rather go back to sleep and level up in the game.
"This..." Dong Qimai had said all that in an attempt to help his nephew, but he hadn't expected Su Fan to be so aggressive.
"As long as he fulfills the bet, I'll buy this piece of jade. If you want the jade, hurry up and make him call me 'Dad'!" Su Fan urged.
"You scoundrel! You made the bet yourself, hurry up and do it!" Dong Qimai immediately yelled at Dong Wang upon hearing Su Fan's words.
Compared to his nephew, the jade was more important.
Dong Wang gritted his teeth and finally, under his uncle's urging gaze, knelt down unwillingly.
"Dad!" Dong Wang gritted out.
"Kowtow," Su Fan said softly.
Dong Wang unwillingly lowered his head and kowtowed on the ground.
"Dad!"
"Get up. I don't have a son as old as you," Su Fan felt a sense of relief, his previous grievances now redressed.
"Young friend, you see, the bet has been fulfilled. When can we trade for this jade?" Dong Qimai asked Su Fan with a smile.
"Did I say I was going to sell it to you?" Su Fan asked, looking at Dong Qimai as if he were an idiot.
"Boss Jiang, seventeen million, I'll sell it to you," Su Fan said to Jiang Hongwei.
Jiang Hongwei had made the highest offer besides Dong Qimai, and Su Fan had a good impression of him.
"Huh?" Jiang Hongwei was a bit stunned.
"No, I offered twenty million! Did you not hear me clearly? Let me say it again, I offer twenty million, sell it to me," Dong Qimai thought Su Fan had made a mistake and repeated the price.
"I heard you clearly, twenty million, but I don't want to sell it to you. Your Yubao Xuan doesn't know quality. I'm afraid the precious jade will be tarnished in your hands," Su Fan glanced at Dong Qimai.
Su Fan wasn't targeting the person, but the establishment. He looked down on anyone from Yubao Xuan.
"You!" Dong Qimai was somewhat angry. Was there anyone in this world who would refuse money?
"Young friend, have you thought it through? I can't afford twenty million," Jiang Hongwei asked for confirmation.
"It's fine, it's not like I'm short of a few million," Su Fan said generously.
Was he not short of a few million? Of course, he was! But he wouldn't be in the future, so Su Fan was essentially pre-spending.
"Alright then, I can't let young friend suffer too much. I'll add another million, eighteen million!" Jiang Hongwei gritted his teeth and took out all his private savings.
Su Fan didn't say anything. Since the other party had increased the price, why would he refuse?
Jiang Hongwei immediately transferred the money to Su Fan, who quickly received the confirmation.
Looking at the balance in the text message, Su Fan felt a sense of dizziness. It was the first time in his life he had seen so much money.
"Young friend, this is my business card. If you need anything related to antiques or jade, feel free to contact me. I have some connections in our new city," Jiang Hongwei handed Su Fan a business card.
"Brother Jiang, no need to be so polite. I don't have a business card either. Just call me Su Fan," Su Fan took the card and introduced himself.
"Young friend Su Fan, would you like to have dinner together sometime?" Jiang Hongwei asked Su Fan with a smile.
"No, thank you. I have some things to attend to. Perhaps another day. I'll treat you another time," Su Fan politely declined.
Su Fan remembered some things and needed to go home to verify them.
Su Fan returned home and immediately opened his backpack.
He remembered that the top-up entrance for the game "Martial Arts Hegemony" was in the backpack interface, and the shop could also be accessed directly from there.
Su Fan eagerly clicked on the backpack. It had five slots, each with forty compartments. The first two were free, while the remaining three required Yuanbao to unlock. Besides these five backpack slots, there was also a slot labeled "Yuanbao," which displayed the Yuanbao count and the top-up entrance.
Su Fan successfully opened the Yuanbao slot. The Yuanbao count was zero, with a "Top-up" button and a "Shop" button below.
Su Fan excitedly clicked the "Top-up" button.
In Su Fan's hopeful gaze, a top-up interface actually appeared.
【Please select the top-up amount】
Su Fan directly entered ten thousand. Since he had money now, he might as well top up a bit more if he could.
【Ding! Top-up successful, ten thousand Yuanbao credited】
Su Fan quickly received a message. Ten thousand yuan had been deducted from his bank card.
Su Fan was stunned. The normal top-up ratio for games was 1:100. Ten thousand yuan should have been one million Yuanbao, but here it was 1:1?
Su Fan didn't dwell on it for now. The most important thing was whether he could access the shop. If he could access the shop, that would be the most crucial.
Su Fan excitedly clicked the "Shop" button.
An interface appeared before Su Fan, filled with dazzling goods, each emitting a glow.
Su Fan was instantly excited. He was about to soar!
As long as he could buy items from the shop, his leveling would be much faster, and various props could help him quickly increase his level.
"Triple Experience Potion! Flying Talisman! These are very practical items!"
Su Fan looked through them one by one and finally found the item he most desired.
Attribute Pills!
Apart from hidden quests, this was an item that could only be obtained through spending money.
Price: 999,999 Yuanbao.
"Damn! Why did the price go up!" m..oΓg
When Su Fan saw the price, he couldn't help but complain.
Attribute pills, which used to cost only one thousand Yuanbao each, now cost one million Yuanbao each. It was daylight robbery!
With the money he had, he could only buy a little over ten Attribute Pills.
Su Fan clicked the "Top-up" button again. This time, he directly chose to top up twelve million, ten million for Attribute Pills and two million for other expenses.
That evening, Su Fan fell asleep again and entered the game.
In the familiar inn, Su Fan immediately went to the game shop to buy items.
