The Strongest Mad Son-in-law
Chapter 26 - 26 No Room for Negotiation in Tricking You
"You..." Liu Ruyan trembled with anger, "you ungrateful wretches, I'm so angry I could die!"
Liu Ruyan huffily opened the door and quickly walked out.
The lady boss snorted coldly from inside the door, "Hmph, stinky woman, trying to compete with me! With the Liu family down, Jing'an City's market will be mine, Zhang Rong's!"
Xu Hao hurriedly greeted her, "Ruyan, what happened?"
Liu Ruyan glared fiercely at the compartment door, "Those ungrateful wretches, when they were short on stock, I generously sold them goods at cost price. Now that I personally come to ask them, they actually want to charge three times the price!"
"Oh, is that so?" A hint of ruthlessness flashed in Xu Hao's eyes. Just now, Xu Hao had been feeling somewhat guilty, wondering if it was inappropriate to take all the jadeite-containing raw stones from the lady boss.
But now, it seemed like the wisest course of action.
"Don't worry, Ruyan! I have a way to help you get revenge!" Xu Hao reached out and gently patted Liu Ruyan's shoulder, then took two steps forward, walking towards the front of the store.
At that moment, Xiao Hong danced along with the music, having already stripped off half of her clothes. The black straps against her fair skin were indeed captivating.
The lady boss, Zhang Rong, came out of the room and seeing Xiao Hong's behavior, couldn't help but chastise loudly, "Xiao Hong, are you out of your mind, what are you doing?"
The sales guy next to her, Xiao Zhang, hurriedly approached and said, "Boss lady, it's like this, Xiao Hong made a bet with that handsome guy, and he bought over ten million worth of raw stones!"
Once Xiao Zhang explained, Zhang Rong finally noticed that about one-fifth of the raw stones in the store were gone. Although a bit annoyed, this didn't affect Zhang Rong's bottom line; after all, making ten million wasn't bad.
However, after Xu Hao gave the lady boss a cold glance, he suddenly clapped his hands and announced, "Everyone, pay attention, this store's lady boss is an ungrateful wretch, a cheater... the raw stones here can't produce any jadeite, don't be fooled..."
Xu Hao's words instantly caused an uproar amongst the crowd.
"Young man, you shouldn't talk nonsense, didn't you just cut out jadeite?"
"Heh, actually, only those two or three pieces contained jadeite! The rest have none at all. I spent over ten million today just to expose their deceitful faces!"
...
Xu Hao's words were highly provocative, after all, to the onlookers, Xu Hao was seen as a super-rich second generation who clearly didn't care about money.
Since Xu Hao said so, the crowd began to doubt whether the store was really up to no good.
Seeing the change in the crowd's mood, the lady boss Zhang Rong quickly rebuked, "You little bastard, shut your mouth... Don't listen to him, everyone, our store has the highest rate of jadeite production on the whole street, up to 30%. I'll prove it to you... stone cutting master, cut open these few raw stones..."
Zhang Rong, in an attempt to prove her point, personally picked four or five raw stones and handed them to the stone cutting master, hoping to recover her reputation.
The outcome was something Xu Hao had already anticipated, and he saw no need to continue watching.
Xu Hao gently pulled on Liu Ruyan's arm, leading her into the BMW.
As soon as they entered the BMW, Liu Ruyan saw the back seat piled with rocks of various sizes and was immediately shocked, "Xu Hao, why did you buy so many raw stones?"
Xu Hao smiled proudly, "Ruyan, rest assured, all the stones here contain jadeite! Let me put it this way, all the raw stones with jadeite in this place have been picked out by me. Today, she won't be able to cut out a single piece of jadeite, hehe, just wait and see... Heh, she won't be able to sell another stone here!"
"All of them contain jadeite? Are you so sure? Don't tell me you have clairvoyant vision?" Liu Ruyan questioned Xu Hao somewhat incredulously.
"Of course not, I just..." Xu Hao paused mid-sentence, knowing that no matter how he explained it, Liu Ruyan wouldn't believe him right away, "Look, checkout outside at the store. If the five raw stones Zhang Rong picked out don't contain any jadeite, wouldn't that prove that all the stones I have here contain jadeite?"
"I guess so!" Liu Ruyan's words were filled with hesitation, after all, Xu Hao had given her too many surprises lately. A luxurious motorcade, a 2.5 billion investment, and somehow mysteriously getting his hands on so much incriminating evidence about Zhang Lin and Uncle Two... This Xu Hao seemed to have many secrets unknown to Liu Ruyan!
...
Over at Zhang Rong's store, the crowd watched eagerly as the stone cutting master operated the cutting machine.
The first one!
Pfft! Pfft!
After making two cuts in succession, dust filled the air, and inside it was all a hazy grey, with nothing to be seen!
Zhang Rong personally supervised the work, and seeing the situation in front of her, couldn't help but say with embarrassment, "The first one has nothing, that's normal, right? After all, not every piece contains jadeite!"
The second one!
Pfft!
Still nothing! This copy was generated from content at *.
Zhang Rong's complexion had already turned grim, "Keep going!"
The third one, nothing!
The fourth one, nothing!
The fifth one, still nothing!
...
Rustle!
Five in a row, and actually none contained jadeite, not even a speck of it. Zhang Rong was dumbstruck. When she selected them just now, Zhang Rong had chosen according to the most likely pieces, so how come none of them revealed anything?
This isn't scientific!
"Boss lady, good job, it turns out you've really been deceiving us all along!"
"Refund our money, refund it! I just spent eight hundred thousand, refund it now!"
"Exactly, exactly! Big scammer!"
...
The crowd of onlookers began to make a commotion, and amidst her anxiety and anger, Zhang Rong said, "Everyone, please don't get agitated, I've been working here for so many years, how could I possibly be a scammer? Quickly, Xiao Hong, you take some people to the warehouse and bring out raw stones number 89 and 93!"
Those pieces of raw stone were from an old pit, and many masters had said that the chances of those pieces yielding jadeite were very high.
Xiao Hong, upon hearing Zhang Rong's words, stiffened and said uneasily, "Auntie, those pieces of stone... they were bought by the security guard who came with President Liu a moment ago!"
Pfft!
"What? You brought him to the warehouse too?" Zhang Rong felt the world spinning around her, her vision darkened, and she almost collapsed.
"Yes, that guy apparently has so much money, he's been picking stones like crazy..." Xiao Hong's voice trailed off, growing weaker as she spoke.
Zhang Rong slapped Xiao Hong across the face, "Stupid pig! We've been tricked... Damn it, that security guard must have been sent by Liu Ruyan, definitely a pro!" Little did Zhang Rong know, Xu Hao wasn't actually a pro, he just knew clearly which stones had jadeite.
"What are you standing there for? Go and chase them back!" If Liu Ruyan and Xu Hao weren't chased down, Zhang Rong's reputation would be ruined.
But just as Zhang Rong and Xiao Hong were about to rush over, the crowd at the door went wild, blocking Zhang Rong and Xiao Hong, "Boss lady, shameless fraudster, trying to run away, are you? Catch her, let those with grudges seek revenge, those with grievances air them..."
Crackling bang!
The people were throwing their beverages, buns, shoe soles... all recklessly aimed at Zhang Rong's face...
