The Great Tang Dynasty's Trans-Dimensional Conference: Little Rhinoceros Arrives

The two chatted for another ten minutes or so when a middle-aged man wearing sunglasses suddenly walked in. Although he was dressed in simple casual clothes, he had a very refined demeanor. He was accompanied by two bodyguards.

"Old Zhou, where's that treasure you were talking about? Show it to me!"

Before the man even got close, his loud voice rang out. Lin Fan hadn't expected such a refined-looking man to have such a loud voice.

"President Lin, your temper hasn't changed at all. You run faster than anyone else when you hear there's treasure." Boss Zhou got up to greet him.

"What the hell are you talking about? There are only so many kinds of 'hooked goods' on the market now. If I'm a step too late, that old Guo guy might beat me to it again."

Although the man referred to as President Lin greeted Lao Zhou, his eyes behind his sunglasses had been sizing up Lin Fan ever since he entered the room.

"Who's been talking badly about me behind my back?"

Before Boss Zhou could introduce the two, another voice suddenly came from the doorway. Unlike the loud voice of President Lin from before, it was somewhat hoarse and low.

Lin Fan originally thought that some big shot had come, but instead, a skinny, dark-skinned man walked in. He was wearing a blue robe in this weather, which gave him an incongruous look.

"Hey, speak of the devil! Old Guo, with your big business, don't try to take it from me today, okay? I've finally found a treasure!"

The man surnamed Guo naturally refused, but quickly walked up to Lin Fan, turned to look at Boss Zhou, and said:

"Old Zhou, is this the young man you were talking about on the phone? He's certainly young and promising, a handsome fellow indeed!"

Without saying a word, this guy surnamed Guo came up to Lin Fan and started praising him. The closer Lin Fan got, the more he looked at him and the more he felt that this guy looked like a comedian.

"Yes, yes, come on, let me introduce you two first. This is Brother Lin Fan, and he brought today's treasure."

After finishing speaking, Boss Zhou turned to look at Lin Fan, pointed at the two people in front of him, and said:

"Brother Lin Fan, this is President Guo Cong, and this is President Lin Mo. They are both extremely powerful, so they definitely won't let you suffer any losses today! Don't worry!"

Lin Fan nodded, about to speak, when Lin Mo stepped forward and grabbed Lin Fan's hand, saying, "Brother Lin, you also have the surname Lin! We're from the same clan, maybe even family five hundred years ago. You'd better think of me today!"

Seeing Lin Mo trying to get close to him, Guo Cong naturally wouldn't remain silent and quickly stepped forward to speak:

"Brother Lin Fan, I won't say anything else for now, but if this treasure is truly excellent, the price I offer will definitely not disappoint you!"

Faced with their enthusiastic attitude, Lin Fan quickly shook hands with each of them in response.

"Alright, gentlemen, don't stand on ceremony with me. Let's take a look at the fabric first. What do you two think?"

"Haha, I love Brother Lin's temperament! He's got guts, no wonder he's from the Lin family!"

President Lin slapped Lin Fan on the shoulder, making Lin Fan wince in pain. He hadn't expected that this seemingly refined man would have such a strong grip.

Lin Fan nodded quickly, and then Boss Zhou led the two of them to the office area. As soon as they got closer, their eyes were immediately drawn to the piece of material on the table.

Just as General Manager Lin was about to step forward and pick it up for inspection, Guo Cong grabbed his arm from behind.

"Old Guo, why are you dragging me here?" President Lin turned around, a hint of displeasure on his face, and then looked back at the table.

Guo Cong glanced at it, then quickly pulled a pair of gloves from his pocket and put them on.

"Don't you even know what a sense of ritual is? How rude."

Mr. Lin curled his lip, a hint of disdain in his eyes, and couldn't help but mutter under his breath, "Look at you, trying to act all high and mighty with us!"

Whether Mr. Guo truly didn't hear or was pretending not to, he ignored Lin Mo and carefully picked up the jade pebble to examine it.

However, the more he looked, the more astonished he became. His mouth opened and remained agape, and he couldn't help but sigh inwardly:

"What a treasure! What a treasure! Just this natural Buddha statue alone makes my trip worthwhile!"

The others present had no idea what he was thinking. As time had passed, President Lin, who was waiting on the side, began to get a little impatient.

"Old Guo, are you even capable? You've been staring at this for ages and haven't come up with anything!"

Guo ignored what Lin said and looked up at Boss Zhou:

"Old Zhou, are you sure there's nothing wrong with your test report?"

Upon hearing this, Boss Zhou chuckled: "President Guo, you're underestimating my character! Here, take a look for yourself!"

Upon receiving the test report, Mr. Guo's anxiety completely subsided, and he immediately looked up:

"Old Zhou, don't mind it, it's just that this thing is too perfect. I couldn't find a single flaw. If you didn't know better, you'd think it was some kind of work of art!"

Hearing what the two said, President Lin, who was standing to the side, became even more restless.

"Old Guo, you've seen it, so let me take a look too. Brother Lin Fan didn't say he'd only sell it to you. We businessmen can't be so dishonest, right, Brother Lin Fan?"

Lin Fan hadn't expected the fire to spread to him, but since it was a business transaction, the highest bidder would win, so he nodded.

"Look, Brother Lin has spoken too, it's my turn!" Before President Guo could react, Lin Mo took action.

"Alright, alright, you can look if you want, but why are you grabbing it? How rude!"

Helpless, Lao Guo could only hand over the jade pebble he was holding, then ignored President Lin and pulled Lin Fan aside.

"Brother Lin, to be honest, I really love this material. How about this: I'll give you 660,000 per gram, and I'll take this treasure! What do you say?"

Holy crap, as the saying goes, you can't judge a book by its cover. Lin Fan didn't expect that this boss surnamed Guo, who looked unremarkable, would directly ask for the whole package. That's going to cost close to 70 million!

Seeing that Lin Fan remained silent, President Guo assumed he was still not satisfied and continued:

"Old Zhou probably told you about the market rates in this industry. Normally, top-quality jadeite costs between 400,000 and 600,000 yuan per gram. I added another 60,000 yuan to that, so I'm showing my sincerity quite a bit!"

Although the price was already so high, Lin Fan gradually suppressed his excitement. Since two people had come, he should at least wait and see what Mr. Lin's offer was.

"Mr. Guo, please don't rush. I will definitely offer this treasure today, but as for the price, it will definitely go to the highest bidder. Let's wait and hear what Mr. Lin has to say."

Seeing Lin Fan's appearance, President Guo was also a little anxious. He thought that if that bastard Lin got involved, the deal might really fall through.

After all, he had just competed with that General Manager Lin for a piece of material last month. Because it was a sealed bidding process, he ended up paying more than ten million yuan more to win the piece.

Although it was a fair transaction in the auction, it still made him quite angry at the Lin family at the time, and this time it was not a sealed bid method.

Thinking of this, Mr. Guo couldn't help but sigh inwardly, guessing that this deal might not be easy to handle this time.
