Ten Thousand Sword Masters

People kept coming and going; some left with ecstasy, others with despair.

Finally, Zhang Jianyun squeezed into the shop.

"Those who want to buy raw stones, take a look," the shop assistant called out to the crowd.

Zhang Jianyun observed the raw stone but did not immediately make a purchase.

"I'll take this one."

Give me that piece.

People around kept buying raw stones and cutting them, but most of what they cut out were worthless stones. Even if they found jade, it wasn't very valuable.

After observing for half a day, Zhang Jianyun finally made his move.

"This one, that one, this one, I'll buy it."

Zhang Jianyun selected three rough stones in a row.

The shop assistant immediately took the three rough stones off and handed them to Zhang Jianyun: "Sir, thank you for the 3 yuan."

Zhang Jianyun immediately took out 3 yuan and handed it to the waiter.

"Sir, would you like to have the stone cut here?" the waiter asked.

Hefted the rough stone in his hand and said, "Tch."

He then handed the three rough stones to the stone cutter.

The stone cutter took the raw stone from Zhang Jianyun, observed it for a while, and then began to carefully cut the stone.

I cut two stones in a row, but they were both useless.

After smiling at Zhang Jianyun, the stone cutter began cutting the third rough stone.

As soon as the stone cutter cut open the third piece of rough stone, a crystal-clear green color was revealed.

"Brother, I'll offer 30 yuan for this rough stone. Don't cut it any further. If you cut it any further, the value of this rough stone may plummet," a fat middle-aged man said to Zhang Jianyun.

The people around him quieted down and looked at Zhang Jianyun with curiosity, wondering what decision he would make next.

It would be a lie to not be tempted by 30 yuan, and there are really great risks involved in making that investment.

After looking at the rough stone and hesitating for a moment, Zhang Jianyun gritted his teeth and said, "Continue cutting."

"Sigh~"

Seeing that Zhang Jianyun decided to continue cutting, everyone around him looked at him with newfound respect.

chi chi chi ~

The stone cutter continued cutting the stone, revealing more and more of its translucent green color.

The obese middle-aged man grabbed Zhang Jianyun's hand: "Brother, don't cut it anymore, I'll buy this rough stone for 200 million."

"Young man, I'll offer 300 million for this rough stone."

"I'll offer 350 million."

In an instant, people surrounded Zhang Jianyun, offering to pay for the uncut rough stone.

Faced with a sum of over a million, Zhang Jianyun remained unmoved and said, "Continue cutting."

"Hiss~"

The onlookers gasped in unison, awestruck by Zhang Jianyun's imposing presence.

Half an hour later, the stone cutter, covered in sweat, finished cutting the entire rough stone, revealing an oval-shaped piece of jade.

"My God, it's Imperial Jade!"

"I actually saw the legendary Imperial Jadeite with my own eyes one day."

"Heavens! Cutting stone has yielded imperial jade."

The crowd gasped in shock, and instantly, all eyes turned to Zhang Jianyun, some with envy, others with jealousy.

"Brother, I'll buy this jadeite of yours for 2 million," the obese middle-aged man said eagerly to Zhang Jianyun.

"You think you can buy the Imperial Jadeite for 2 million? I'll offer 3 million," a young man said dismissively.

"3 million?"

The crowd was utterly shocked, stunned by this astronomical figure.

"Fifty million! I'll offer fifty million!"

Just then, an elderly man in a trench coat pushed through the crowd and entered the shop.

"I'll pay 5 million for this imperial jadeite," the old man said domineeringly.

"Young man, no one will offer me a higher price. Buy it from me," the old man said confidently.

Seeing the old man's determined look, Zhang Jianyun was reluctant to buy it and didn't want to give in to his desires. However, thinking that it wasn't worth getting upset over such a large sum of money, she decided to agree.

"I'll offer 5200 million."

Just then, the obese middle-aged man shouted, his face flushed.

"Are you deliberately going against me?" The old man looked at the obese middle-aged man with hatred.

"The highest bidder wins. You can keep bidding higher," the obese middle-aged man said calmly.

The old man glanced coldly at the obese middle-aged man a few times, "6000 million."

"6200 million." The obese middle-aged man added another 200 million.

"You?" The old man was furious, his chest heaving with rage.

"Are you going to raise the price or not? If not, I'm buying it." The obese middle-aged man said calmly.

"You~you~you~"

The old man pointed his finger at the obese middle-aged man, trembling with anger.

6500.

The elderly person raised the price again.

"6700 million." The obese middle-aged man calmly raised the price again.

"7000 million." The old man calmed down, his anger subsided, and his emotions returned to normal.

When the price reached 7000 million, the obese middle-aged man opened his mouth several times, but ultimately gave up on raising the price further.

After a few moments, no one else raised the price. The old man swayed for a moment, then looked at Zhang Jianyun: "Young man, no one's raising the price anymore, can you sell it to me now?"

Zhang Jianyun never expected that the three rough stones he bought for 30,000 yuan would eventually yield a single stone that could sell for 70 million yuan. He felt like he was in a dream.

"I can sell it to you." Zhang Jianyun nodded.

The old man wasn't particularly happy to see Zhang Jianyun agree to sell, after all, 7000 million for an imperial jadeite was far above the market price.

"Give me your bank card number, and I'll have my secretary transfer the money to you through the bank right away," the old man said.

"Okay." Zhang Jianyun said, taking out his bank card and handing it to the old man.

The old man took the bank card and immediately called his secretary. After telling the secretary the bank card number, he asked for Zhang Jianyun's name.

"My name is Luo Yue," Zhang Jianyun said.

After confirming the details, the elderly man's secretary began transferring money to Zhang Jianyun through the bank.

Half an hour later, Zhang Jianyun received a text message notification on his phone that 7000 million yuan had been deposited into his account.

"The payment has been received. The Imperial Jade is yours now," Zhang Jianyun said, handing the Imperial Jade to the old man.

The old man still smiled broadly as he accepted the Imperial Jade, despite the fact that the 7000 million yuan cost was giving him a headache.

Having earned 7000 million, and feeling the envious gazes around him, Zhang Jianyun immediately left the shop.

As Zhang Jianyun stepped out of the shop, he sensed that several people were following him, so he immediately turned and went to a secluded street.

The five men who were following Zhang Jianyun rushed up and surrounded him instantly.

"Kid, give me your bank card and we won't bother you," said the man in the yellow short-sleeved shirt.

"You think you can rob me of my money with just a few of you?" Zhang Jianyun said with amusement.

"The few of us are enough to deal with you alone," the man in yellow said.

"Aren't you afraid I'll call the police?" Zhang Jianyun asked curiously.

"Go ahead and call the police. I can tell you that my uncle is the deputy director of the Municipal Public Security Bureau. Calling the police won't do you any good," the man in yellow said.

"Since calling the police won't help, are you planning to just rob me?" Zhang Jianyun said calmly.

"Stop talking nonsense and hand over your bank card right now, or you'll get a beating!" a young man shouted.

"If you want the bank card, come and get it." Zhang Jianyun gathered the bank card in front of him.

"If you won't listen to reason, you'll have to suffer the consequences." The man in yellow said, throwing a punch at Zhang Jianyun.

boom!

Zhang Jianyun punched the man in yellow, sending him flying. The others stopped in their tracks, staring at Zhang Jianyun in shock, before turning and fleeing.

After kicking the man in yellow who was lying on the ground again, Zhang Jianyun walked out of the street and hailed a taxi to a newly opened real estate development.

The development is called Phoenix International. As Zhang Jianyun entered the sales office, a beautiful woman warmly greeted him.

"Sir, are you here to view a property?" the saleswoman asked with a smile.

Zhang Jianyun nodded: "What types of apartments do you offer here?"

"We have high-rise apartments, villas, and detached houses. What kind would you like to see?" the saleswoman asked.

"Take me to see the detached villa," Zhang Jianyun said.

"Then please come with me, sir."

Immediately afterwards, the saleswoman led Zhang Jianyun onto a sightseeing bus and headed towards the detached villa area.

"Sir, we only have 6 villas left in our development. Let me show you villa number 3 first," the saleswoman said.

After getting off the sightseeing bus, we entered Villa No. 3.

Upon entering, you'll find a courtyard spanning 2000 square meters, with three pine trees on each side and various flowers and plants growing around them.

Crossing the courtyard leads to the living room.

"This villa has two floors, six bedrooms, a kitchen, two bathrooms, a movie theater, and a study," the saleswoman explained.

Zhang Jianyun inspected each room and thought the villa's location was good and the decoration was decent.

"How much did you pay for this villa?" Zhang Jianyun asked.

"Our asking price for this villa is 1500 million," the saleswoman said.

"Okay, I'll buy it." Zhang Jianyun said without hesitation; 1500 million wasn't a lot.

"You bought it?" The saleswoman didn't react for a moment and looked at Zhang Jianyun in confusion.

"I've bought it. Let's get the paperwork done," Zhang Jianyun said.

"Is this real?" The saleswoman still couldn't believe it.

"Of course it's true," Zhang Jianyun said with a smile.

Seeing that Zhang Jianyun wasn't joking, the saleswoman was overjoyed.

"Sir, please come back to the sales office with me, and I will process your house paperwork immediately."

After taking a sightseeing bus back to the sales office, I paid by card, and the paperwork for the house was completed two hours later.

"Sir, can we add each other on WeChat? You can contact me anytime if you encounter any problems with the house in the future," the saleswoman said.

"Chat? Is it a chat app? I haven't downloaded the app yet," Zhang Jianyun said.

"Let's exchange phone numbers then," the saleswoman said.

"Okay, my phone number is 156..." Zhang Jianyun said his phone number, and the saleswoman immediately dialed the number.

"Sir, my name is Han Jiaqi. You can make a note of it," said Han Jiaqi, the saleswoman.

"Okay, I've made a note of it," Zhang Jianyun said.

"Sir, where are you going now? Do you have a car? If you don't have a car, I can give you a ride," Han Jiaqi said.

"Okay, I'm going to buy a car anyway, can you take me to the nearest car dealership?" Zhang Jianyun said.

"Okay, sir, please wait a moment, I'll go get the car," Han Jiaqi said.

Not long after, Han Jiaqi drove out in a new Yue car.

After getting into Han Jiaqi's car, we headed to the car market.

"What industry does Mr. Luo work in?" Han Jiaqi asked casually.

"I'm still a freelancer," Zhang Jianyun said.

Upon hearing Zhang Jianyun say that he was a freelancer, Han Jiaqi looked at Zhang Jianyun in surprise. What kind of freelancer could be so rich? Was he a rich second-generation?

Sensing Han Jiaqi's surprise, Zhang Jianyun said, "I usually like to dabble in antiques and jade, and I've found some bargains."

"Then you must be a master at finding bargains," Han Jiaqi said with a smile.

Upon arriving at the car city, Han Jiaqi parked her car in the underground parking lot.

"Brother Luo, what kind of car do you want to buy?" Han Jiaqi asked.

"I don't have any ideas yet. Do you have any recommendations?" Zhang Jianyun asked.

"Tengxing recently released an off-road vehicle, it's very beautiful, I think it would look very cool on a guy," Han Jiaqi said.

"Really? I'll go take a look."

As they talked, the two walked into the car market.

"Are you two looking to buy a car?" a sales consultant greeted Zhang Jianyun and Han Jiaqi.

"Do you have any Tengfei off-road vehicles from Tengxing here?" Han Jiaqi asked.

"Of course. Please come with me." The sales consultant said, leading the two to Section B of the car market.

"Han Jiaqi?"

Just as the two followed the sales consultant to Section B, a voice called out to Han Jiaqi from behind.

Han Jiaqi turned around and saw Zhou Xingxing, a rich second-generation heir and one of her former suitors.

"Huh? Han Jiaqi, didn't you say you wouldn't date before graduating from university?" Zhou Xingxing said, glancing at Zhang Jianyun next to Han Jiaqi.

Han Jiaqi grabbed Zhang Jianyun's arm: "Do I need you to dictate when I can date?"

"You bitch, how did you reject me back then?" Stephen Chow cursed angrily.

"Zhou Xingxing, don't push your luck. I'm just giving you a reason to refuse so you can save face," Han Jiaqi said.

"You bitch, what right do you have to refuse me?" Zhou Xingxing was furious and embarrassed. His girlfriend next to him quickly pulled him back, "Xingxing, you've been drinking, don't talk nonsense."

"Excuse me, you two." Zhou Xingxing's girlfriend smiled apologetically at Zhang Jianyun and Han Jiaqi before pulling Zhou Xingxing away from Area B.

"Why are you pulling me? I'm here to buy a Tengfei SUV." Zhou Xingxing broke free from his girlfriend's pull and followed the sales consultant to the booth where the Tengfei SUV was displayed.

Zhang Jianyun and Han Jiaqi also followed the sales consultant to the booth.

"You also sell Tengfei SUVs? That costs 200 million, can you afford it?" Zhou Xingxing said to Zhang Jianyun with disdain.

"Mr. Zhou, this Tengfei SUV is the luxury enhanced version, priced at 320 million," Zhou Xingxing's sales consultant hurriedly said.

A hint of embarrassment flashed across Stephen Chow's face: "I'll just watch the regular version."

"The regular version is over here, please come with me." The sales consultant led Zhou Xingxing to a booth next door.

"Are you two also looking at the regular version?" the sales consultant asked Zhang Jianyun and Han Jiaqi.

"No need, we'll just look at this one," Zhang Jianyun said.

Then, the sales consultant introduced the Tengfei off-road vehicle, a luxury enhanced version, to Zhang Jianyun and Han Jiaqi.

"Okay, I'll buy it." After learning more about it, Zhang Jianyun made the decision.

"Alright, sir, please come with me, let's complete the formalities."

Seeing the sales consultant leave with Zhang Jianyun and Han Jiaqi, Zhou Xingxing sneered, "Two bumpkins, daring to come to Section B to look at cars."

"Mr. Zhou, I've pretty much covered this car. Would you like to take it for a test drive?" the sales consultant asked.

"Okay, I'll take a test drive," Zhou Xingxing said, opening the car door, getting in, and starting the car.

Just then, he saw the sales consultant return with Zhang Jianyun and Han Jiaqi.

Zhang Jianyun and Han Jiaqi then got into the Tengfei Off-Road Luxury Enhanced Edition and drove away.

"He bought that car?" Stephen Chow asked in shock.

Zhou Xingxing's sales consultant hurriedly opened his phone to check the car mall's sales platform: "Mr. Zhou, my phone shows that a person named Luo Yue just bought a Tengfei SUV Luxury Enhanced Edition."

Upon hearing this, Stephen Chow's face darkened instantly, and his eyes turned icy cold.

I like the Ten Thousand Swords Master.
