Chapter 316: Chapter 316: You sure took the opportunity to extort
They quickly arrived at a shop dealing in jade and raw stones.
The owner, surnamed Gu, was somewhat overweight, dressed in a Zhongshan suit, holding a large folding fan in his hand.
Owner Gu greeted them with a smile and then pointed to a pile of raw stones in the large shop, saying:
"These are all my current inventory. Please help me test them to see if there are any fakes. I’m not the type to let you all work for nothing. If you test correctly, I will give you a big gift as thanks."
They didn’t expect the owner to be so polite, and Lin Zhi and her group were quite pleased.
But his tone changed as he said, "Of course, if you test incorrectly and cause me to lose a raw stone, you will have to compensate at the fixed price. Every raw stone here has a set price, one million each. Oh, and if you miss a fake and I end up selling it as a real one, causing damage to my shop’s reputation, you will have to compensate for all my losses."
Jiang Yihan sneered, "Looks like you don’t understand, we came here out of kindness to help you for free, but you’re using this opportunity to extort us. We can completely choose not to help you."
Owner Gu said with a smooth smile, "Don’t say that. Don’t be angry, I’m just trying to minimize the risk. I also said, I will be thankful. If your testing is error-free, with no problems at all, you are free to pick any of the raw stones, one for each person!"
"Can I take a look first? What if you deliberately set us up with a bunch of useless raw stones?" Lin Zhi said.
"Help yourself. Don’t worry, all these raw stones are marked and logged, there’s no faking it. Plus, I have surveillance cameras here, and there are so many people watching, absolutely no fakery will occur."
Lin Zhi ignored his words and went over to inspect each one.
She quickly clapped her hands and said, "Fine, we’ll do it according to what you said."
Owner Gu’s smile brightened even more, "This lady here is straightforward. I hope your testing goes well, and I will generously give the raw stones to you."
Lin Zhi thought he was a good person for letting them pick a raw stone for free...
Lin Zhi started the test with the equipment.
She quickly detected two fakes, and after cutting them open, they indeed turned out to be false.
Owner Gu kept smiling and praising their expertise.
Just as Lin Zhi was about to continue the tests, she suddenly stopped to ask him, "Owner Gu, after we finish testing, how do we confirm our testing is problem-free?"
"I will open up all these raw stones right now," Owner Gu said.
In other words, whether there was a problem or not could be seen immediately.
Lin Zhi nodded, "Is it after we each pick one to open?"
"Of course," Owner Gu nodded. "Regardless of whether there are issues or not, you make your selection first. If the rest are opened and no issues arise, the raw stones you selected are yours. If there are problems, you must return the stone to me and also compensate for my losses."
"How much loss?"
"As many as are opened, that’s how many you’ll compensate for."
There are dozens of raw stones here!
If they have to compensate, wouldn’t that mean tens of millions?!
Not to mention Zhu Yuan and Jiang Yihan, even Huang Jun was furious.
"Owner Gu, you can’t bully people like this," he said, staring at him with a cold and low tone.
Owner Gu was not afraid of him at all and laughed, "But my demands are not problematic, if they truly have the ability to identify all the fake raw stones, naturally, they won’t need to worry about losing money."
