"Brother, let's not say anything more." Boss Lin put his arm around Lin Fan's shoulder. "I'll take all of these stones."

Before Lin Fan could speak, Old Zhou, who was standing to the side, couldn't sit still any longer.

"Oh dear, don't do this, Boss Lin." Old Zhou approached the two men with a troubled expression.

"Boss Lin, I know you have deep pockets, but I've already discussed it with Brother Lin. I've already decided on the smallest piece of the deal. As for the rest, you can divide it however you like!"

He only sees a handful of such high-quality jade pieces throughout the year, so he doesn't want to miss such a good opportunity.

Boss Lin turned his head to confirm with Lin Fan, but when Lin Fan nodded, a hint of regret flashed in his eyes.

"Alright, here you go." Boss Lin released Lin Fan's hand and carefully took out the smallest stone from the box and handed it to Lao Zhou.

Just as the two were about to discuss the specific price with Lin Fan, another uninvited guest barged into the store.

"Hey, Mr. Lin, you're pretty quick. You've gotten ahead of me, Lao Guo." The old man surnamed Guo walked up to the group with a kind smile.

He immediately noticed the jade in Lao Zhou's hand, and also the box in Boss Lin's hand.

Seeing this, Boss Lin smiled wickedly, "Old Guo, you're coming at this hour, it's too late. To be honest, I've already bought all the stones for today. You'll have to wait until next time."

Despite the mockery, Old Guo wasn't angry. Instead, he turned to Lin Fan with a smile, then extended his right hand, "Brother Lin, it's been a long time."

As the saying goes, you can't hit a smiling face, especially since this old man was also a potential buyer of jade. He smiled and extended his hand, saying, "Long time no see."

"Hehe, Brother Lin, may I take a look at the stones you brought today?"

Lin Fan did not refuse. He turned to look at Boss Lin. Since they were doing business, the highest bidder would naturally win.

Boss Lin glared fiercely at Old Man Guo, who had once again interfered. But there was nothing he could do; the seller was Lin Fan, so he could only reluctantly hand over the box.

After taking the box and checking everything, Old Guo was inwardly turmoil, but he didn't show any unusual behavior.

He placed the box back on the table, his expression softening once more. "Mr. Lin, there are four stones here. How about we each take two?"

This old geezer, he comes right up and asks for half the food! Boss Lin, of course, wasn't willing. "Old Guo, we should at least have a first-come, first-served order, right? You're asking for two yuan right off the bat, do you really think I, Lin Mo, am easy to bully?"

Upon hearing this, Old Guo quickly waved his hand, "Look at what you're saying, how could an old man like me dare to bully you? Besides, Boss Lin, you haven't signed a contract with Brother Lin yet, have you? Since the deal hasn't been done, isn't this just fair competition?"

These words were so well-chosen that Boss Lin couldn't find a rebuttal for a moment.

Seeing this, Old Guo's eyes darted around and he looked at Lin Fan again. "Brother Lin, how about this? We can get a quote right here on the spot?"


Lin Fan, of course, had no objection to this. He wasn't a philanthropist, so he would sell the goods to whoever offered the most.

.........

An hour later, Lin Fan, feeling both nervous and excited, quickly left the shop and returned to his car.

Right now, a full 300 million yuan is quietly lying in his bank account. Today, he only took five pieces of jade, each with an average price of 60 million yuan.

However, thanks to the help of Old Guo who arrived at the last minute, they probably wouldn't have made so much money if he hadn't been raising the price so aggressively. Moreover, the two of them secretly left him their phone numbers and agreed to contact each other directly if they had any good items in the future.

After finishing this matter, Lin Fan could plan his next trip. However, the most important thing now was to hurry home, as he didn't know how his little darling was doing.

On his way home, Lin Fan felt a little guilty. Seeing a cake shop he passed, he quickly stopped the car, went in, and bought three cakes and two bags of exquisite pastries.

"These things should be able to quell the little princess's anger, right?" Lin Fan was still a little unsure, but at this point, he had no choice but to act.

More than ten minutes later, Lin Fan drove back to the villa, parked the car, and then quietly took all the food back to the living room.

The living room was completely silent at that moment, with no one in sight.

"No, where are they?"

After putting down what he was holding, Lin Fan first searched the living room, then quickly went upstairs to check the rooms. This time he confirmed that neither of the two little princesses nor Mingyue were at home.

"No way! Did they go out looking for me because I forgot to bring Sizi along?"

After thinking for a moment, Lin Fan quickly dismissed the idea. Although Mingyue and the others had been here for a long time, they had never gone out alone, let alone taken Xiao Sizi with them.

"Could it be that they went back to the Tang Dynasty?" Lin Fan felt that this possibility was much higher.

As Lin Fan had predicted, the little princess realized she had been tricked after going downstairs and not hearing his voice. She then took her family back to the Tang Dynasty to complain to Empress Zhangsun.

Let's go back two hours.

Despite repeated attempts by Chengyang, Mingyue, and the other two to comfort her, the little princess's mood did not improve at all. In the end, she decided to find someone to complain about Lin Fan.

"Fifth Sister, Mingyue Sister, come with me!" The little princess, not bothering to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes, angrily called out to the three people beside her.

"Go? Sizi, where are you going?" Chengyang hadn't forgotten Lin Fan's instructions, and she reached out and grabbed the little princess.

"I'm going back to find my mother~"

Mingyue and Qiuxia exchanged a glance and instantly guessed the little princess's thoughts.

Mingyue quickly said, "Your Highness, let's wait for the young master to return before we talk about it."

"No way!" the little princess said firmly.

"But Your Highness, if the young master comes back and doesn't see anyone, he'll definitely be worried," Qiu Xia advised. She knew that the little princess was usually very attached to Lin Fan, and might have some concerns after hearing this.

To everyone's surprise, the little princess's eyes lit up upon hearing this, and she patted her chest, saying, "Hmph, I just want to make Lin Fan worry! He almost lost his adorable self!"

The three people standing nearby laughed but dared not laugh. Chengyang could only tentatively ask, "Sizi, are we really sure we want to go back?"

"Yes~"

As soon as they finished speaking, a white light flashed, and the group disappeared from the spot.
