Chapter 268: Chapter 268: The Fault-Finding Guh Siqing (4)

Nanjin, by nature, was a somewhat mysterious place. Its power reigned alone, rarely interacting with the major families within the country. The Nanjin Duan Family’s status there was comparable to that of the Gu Family in Xuandu City—the absolute Boss. The Duan Family specialized in jadeite and had many good relations with Country Fei; their power and wealth were unimaginable!

Guh Siqing found herself in a difficult position, with her face growing exceedingly ugly. She hadn’t expected the Jade Stone Association to even attract the Nanjin Duan Family this time! If today’s events got out, Old Master Guh would certainly hold her accountable... When she thought of Guh Tian’s method of punishing family members, a chill inevitably ran down her spine.

Standing silently to the side, Guh Siqi could not help but reveal a mischievous smirk of schadenfreude at the sight of Guh Siqing’s flushed face.

In the middle of the Guh Family’s dilemma of whether to stay or leave, Liao Jinglin spoke up.

"Elder Duan, please calm your anger. Although Xuanjin Yu Jade might be of little influence and holds little sway, we still understand the simple principle of abiding by the rules. This piece of Spring Colored Jade will still go to the highest bidder!" Liao Jinglin’s words not only allowed the Duan Family to save face, but also left Guh Siqing with no place to put her own, glaring hatefully at Liao Jinglin before leaving with her chin up in arrogance.

After Guh Siqing and her group left, the atmosphere on-site regained its vitality. After a fierce round of bidding, the Duan Family ultimately brought home the old pit Glass Type Spring with Color jade for the price of 180 million!

After selling all the pieces of jadeite, Liao Jinglin had made a substantial profit. The raw materials that were bought for 10 million not only all increased in value but also sold for ten times the purchase price. This rapid surge in fame for Xuanjin Yu Jade and Liao Jinglin swept through the entirety of Xuandu City as well as Xuanjin—it was indeed the outcome An Yiqing had been aiming for.

Having finished processing the raw stones for Liao Jinglin, An Yiqing left the Stone-Cutting Area with Zhang Yuksheng to head for the selection area.

The successive increases in value of Liao Jinglin’s jadeite had lifted everyone’s spirits, and they enthusiastically began selecting their raw materials in the purchasing area, with the Xuanjin Currency flowing liberally from their bank cards into the vendors’ pockets.

At that moment, Shen Feng’s crisp voice came from behind An Yiqing.

"Xiao Qing, Xiao Qing!" Shen Feng waved her hand and strode toward her. "I overslept at noon and was only dragged here by my brother just now. Xiao Qing, I heard someone uncovered a Spring Colored Jade a while ago?"

An Yiqing nodded affirmatively.

Upon hearing this, Shen Feng’s large almond eyes sparkled as she exclaimed in shock, "Oh my God! How did I miss such an event! Glass Type Spring Colored Jade is so rare! It’s all my brother’s fault!"

Zhang Yuksheng, standing by the side, gave a sympathetic look to the ever-silent Shen Long, who felt a pang of stomach cramps from the helpless gaze.

An Yiqing laughed and said softly, "If you want to see Spring Colored Jade, go to Yuyuanzhai. You’ll get your fill of the sight."

The girl’s words excited Shen Feng, who chattered non-stop in response.

For a moment, the arrival of the Shen siblings brought a sincere smile to An Yiqing’s face.

...

Quite some time later, Shen Long had to forcefully drag the incessantly talking Shen Feng away. They had come on a task assigned by their grandfather, which they would be too late for if they didn’t attend to it soon.

"Miss, this Miss Shen is truly a person of character," Zhang Yuksheng commented with a smile, watching the retreating backs of the Shen siblings.

"Mhm, Shen Long and Shen Feng are both quite good. If it weren’t for the Qin Family, the Shen Family would definitely claim the last spot among the top five families," An Yiqing nodded, her voice tinged with emotion. The Shen Family’s old master was upright and brave but didn’t have as many crafty schemes as Qin Dingshan had, which is why the Shen Family was squeezed out by the Qin Family.
