"My goodness, such a huge place?"
Guo Xuyang exclaimed as he got out of the car.
"What do you think? Impressed?"
Jiang Qixin was very pleased with Guo Xuyang's reaction.
"Why haven't I been here before?"
"It was just renovated. It used to be a golf course."
"Aren't they tightening land use restrictions in the country now?
So some people converted it into a clubhouse.
This is probably the largest clubhouse in the capital."
Jiang Qixin said as he walked inside.
"It's the same old wine in a new bottle. The land's nature hasn't changed at all."
"The state only tightened restrictions on golf courses, not on building establishments.
Besides, the items in this Treasure Pavilion are indeed very comprehensive."
"Many high-ranking officials, tycoons, and celebrities come here to select items."
"Hearing you say that, I really want to go in and take a look."
"Wait a moment, don't rush. There are cars to take us around inside."
"Otherwise, if we walked around such a large place, I wouldn't be able to sleep tonight."
Jiang Qixin said.
"Why?"
"My legs would ache too much to sleep."
"I didn't expect you to be so humorous," Guo Xuyang said with a smile.
As they spoke, a sightseeing cart pulled up to them.
"Let's go. We'll tour around first, and then you can tell me which venue you want to visit later."
"Let's get a general understanding first."
Jiang Qixin said as he got into the sightseeing cart.
Indeed, the place was enormous. They circled it for over half an hour.
There were more than ten different venues, and they hadn't even stopped to look closely.
Dining, entertainment, and shopping – it had everything one could wish for.
However, the name "Treasure Pavilion" was a bit of a misnomer.
It was more like a shopping plaza.
Guo Xuyang finally chose the Jade Garden and went inside with Jiang Qixin to look around.
The venue was filled with jade, emeralds, diamonds, agates, and similar items.
"Are there no raw stones? The carving techniques here aren't as good as Old Li's at our shop," Guo Xuyang commented while looking.
"The raw stones are inside. Go further in."
The two walked to the center of the large hall and saw many stones.
"These materials aren't categorized. It doesn't seem like a very professional shop opened this," Guo Xuyang continued to complain.
"Are there any bargains?" Jiang Qixin asked.
"Let me see," Guo Xuyang replied, looking up.
The rough emeralds in the hall were not categorized by origin, but by windowed stones, fully gambled stones, and size.
"There are a few small surprises. Let's go take a look."
Guo Xuyang called Jiang Qixin and walked towards the fully gambled stones.
The windowed stones were all extremely expensive.
Although a few contained top-grade jade, they had already been windowed, and the prices asked were hundreds of millions or even billions, which was clearly taking advantage of foolish buyers.
"Haven't you found anything yet?"
Jiang Qixin knew Guo Xuyang's abilities and urged him on since he was taking so long to act.
"I've found them. Do we carry these ourselves, or do the sales staff help us?"
"Either is fine. How many are there?"
"Six in total. Here, go find some salespeople to help us carry them out."
"Aren't we going to cut the stones here?"
"Why draw attention? Making a fortune in silence is better than anything else," Guo Xuyang said.
"Then you pick them out first. I'll go call for people. But you have to give me half later."
"No problem. I don't have much use for so many. We have plenty at the shop."
"You show-off. I like people like you."
"Are you lacking a few coins? A little bit leaking from your fingers would be enough."
"I know whatever you pick will be a masterpiece. I have a friend who likes them, so I can give them as gifts."
"Are you rekindling a romance?" Guo Xuyang asked, looking at Jiang Qixin's expression with a smile.
"You brat, you're even making fun of your elder brother," Jiang Qixin retorted with a smile and a mock scolding.
"Manager Jiang, you should seize the opportunities that come your way.
This is a good thing, there's nothing to be embarrassed about."
"You little fellow, you saw through it?"
"I didn't notice it until you mentioned it.
Now that I look closely, there's something to it.
When's the wedding banquet?"
"What wedding banquet? At my age, I'm just looking for a companion," Jiang Qixin said, a little sheepishly.
