Fake socialites sell me fake luxury, but I can make the fake look real.

After a while, He Xin finally woke up. Her long, brown curly hair was lazily draped over her fair shoulders.

With a hint of misty tears still glistening in her eyes, He Xin looked at Lü Yang, who was still fast asleep, so close to her, and a smile appeared on her lips.

She peeked out a section of her fair arm from under the thin silk quilt, her fingertips sliding down Lü Yang's firm chest, pausing briefly on his angular abdomen before continuing downwards.

In an instant, Lü Yang also opened his eyes. He grabbed He Xin's hand and looked at the voluptuous body in front of him that exuded the charm of a young woman, and teased her.

"He Xin, are you craving something again?"

Caught red-handed, He Xin's cold and beautiful face instantly flushed with a delicate blush. She glared at Lü Yang, pulled her hand back, and spat lightly.

"Who's craving it?"

Seeing that the other party was being hypocritical, Lü Yang chuckled. He stretched out his strong arm, grabbed He Xin's slender waist, and with a little force, lifted her plump body up and carried her straight to the counter in the hall.

Suddenly airborne, He Xin quickly grabbed Lü Yang's neck and whispered, "Lü Yang, what are you doing?"

"Keep your voice down, Sister Bai Su is still sleeping, don't disturb her."

After replying softly, Lü Yang looked at He Xin and whispered in her ear, "Sister He Xin, since you're awake, why don't you come with me to exercise this morning?"

"..."

After a while, as Lü Yang let out a long sigh, his morning exercise came to an end. He poured two glasses of warm water and came back. Looking at He Xin, who was so tired that she couldn't even lift a finger, he asked her with a refreshed expression.

"He Xin, would you like to go out for breakfast together later?"

Hearing this, He Xin snorted in annoyance. She was already stuffed and couldn't eat anymore. She immediately shook her head and said, "What breakfast? It's almost noon. You can go by yourself in a bit. Bai Su and I will go home for lunch and take a nap."

"Alright!"

While the two were chatting, Bai Su finally woke up in the bedroom. She walked out of the room wearing a silk nightgown. As soon as she stepped out, she smelled the ambiguous scent in the air. Looking at He Xin on the sofa, Bai Su immediately felt dissatisfied and glared at Lü Yang, her jealousy flaring up.

"You're showing favoritism towards her, aren't you? They're both big clients, Brother Lü Yang, you have to treat them all equally!"

Upon hearing this, and faced with the request from his major client, Lü Yang, despite not having eaten breakfast, still chose to serve the client a meal first.

Only after Bai Su finished her breakfast did she show a satisfied expression.

Although she was a little reluctant, Bai Su decided that she would have a meal with Lu Yang and Zheng Yulian when they signed the contract on the first of next month. After tidying up her clothes and making sure that no one could tell, she left with He Xin.

After seeing off the two stunning young women, Lü Yang quickly retrieved a handful of goji berries he had bought six months ago from the cupboard, threw them into a thermos, brewed a strong goji berry tea, and gulped down most of it before feeling slightly better.

"Only someone like me can endure this hardship. Who else would be lucky enough to make this kind of money?"

Lu Yang felt a surge of pride, realizing that he was only able to survive because he had cheated and had the system at his disposal.

Otherwise, even if he were born with superhuman strength and could borrow the power of Marquis Changxin, he would have died long ago because he would have to serve different clients every day. If it were Marquis Changxin, he would only need to serve Empress Dowager Zhao. How many clients would he have to serve?

After fully recovering, Lü Yang closed the door and, to replenish the large amount of protein he had lost, went straight to a high-end beef hot pot restaurant. He devoured the food in a whirlwind, and after finishing a stack of premium marbled beef, he felt his body brimming with inexhaustible energy once again.

At 2 PM, after working out, Lü Yang finally returned to the store.

After opening the store, posting on WeChat Moments, and announcing that I was back at work, a big customer came to the store.

Cui Wei!

He is also a second-generation rich kid.

However, unlike Zhou Yu, the rich second-generation, Cui Wei's family is in the real estate business. Judging from his social media posts, he was a wealthy young man who spent money like water in his early years. But Lu Yang didn't catch up with him. By the time Lu Yang entered this industry, Cui Wei had already started to decline. But even though he was declining, he generally wouldn't come to Lu Yang's store to make transactions. He would usually go to the boutique to give away bags.

"Boss Lü!"

Upon seeing the other party arrive, Lü Yang quickly smiled and said.

"Young Master Cui, your presence is truly an honor to our humble establishment. Are you here to replace a bag, or to buy one?"

"Make some mistakes!"

Cui Wei chuckled lightly, his eyes rimmed with dark circles. He carried three dust bags and laid them all out on the counter, asking Lü Yang to appraise them.

Lu Yang opened the bag, glanced at each item, and couldn't help but show a hint of shock.

First: Hermès Kelly 28 with Epsom leather and white gold buckle.

Second: Chanel Classic Flap CF Large Milk White Matte Crocodile Leather with Rhinestone Buckle.

The third one: Chanel Classic Double Flap, rare black lizard skin flap with gold clasp.

Even after seeing quite a few bags this month, Lü Yang couldn't help but show a hint of shock. These three were definitely top-tier hard currency. The first two bags, in brand new condition, could sell for 200,000 yuan each on the second-hand market. The last one, made of lizard skin, was slightly cheaper, but still cost around 140,000 to 150,000 yuan.

After some calculation, he couldn't help but feel fortunate. If Bai Su and He Xin hadn't gone and engaged in a heated debate to help him lower the rent for the new store, he really didn't know if he would have been able to secure these three packages in one go after Lu Yang paid the exorbitant rent.

Seeing that Lü Yang was looking at the bags without saying a word, Cui Wei coughed and explained, "Boss Lü, to be honest, my family business has been a bit tight on cash lately. But these bags are all legitimate. I bought them to give away as gifts, but they're just sitting there unused. I'm selling them to make some cash. You can give me your estimate. If it's good, I'll definitely come back to support your business often."

"Unsold, unwanted items?"

Upon hearing this, Lü Yang couldn't help but chuckle. He glanced at the three bags on the table and, with his sharp eyes, noticed that although the bags looked quite nice, there was obvious wear and tear on the four corners, the bottom studs, and the handles. He could even smell the lingering scents of three different expensive women's perfumes on the leather.

Each bag has a different perfume scent, and they're used to this extent. How can these be considered unwanted items that can't be given away?

If these three bags were indeed acquired legitimately, they certainly weren't secondhand items. It's highly likely that Cui Wei, facing financial difficulties and having nowhere else to turn, managed to forcefully reclaim them from his ex-girlfriend or a kept woman.

"It seems that the real estate industry has indeed had a tough time these past few years. Even the once arrogant rich kids have been forced to ask for their bags back. But being able to get them back is a skill in itself."

After all, they're not stupid. If they give it away and then want it back, wouldn't that be like being taken advantage of? Getting it back won't be easy.

After thinking for a while, Lü Yang also came to his senses. Even though he had figured it out, he remained expressionless.

In this line of work, it's basic moral character to see through things but not say anything. After all, everyone has their downfalls, and who knows, they might rise again one day by riding the wave of opportunity, and then become a big client again!

Thinking of this, Lü Yang chuckled and chimed in, "I understand. The current economic climate is indeed not good. Young Master Cui, you've come to the right place. Bringing your bag here means you're being treated to the highest standards."

After speaking, Lü Yang put on pure white gloves, picked up the first bag, and began to examine it carefully.

Actually, he didn't need to look at it; he could simply activate the system in his mind to find all the problems.

However, you still have to put on a show in front of clients.

【Ding dong! 】

[Target item: Hermès Kelly 28, Epsom leather, milkshake-style, white gold clasp!]

[Authentication Result: Authentic!]

[Analysis of flaws: Missing original dust bag, authenticity card, lock, and key; obvious wear and paint chipping at the four corners; slight blackening and discoloration from sweat stains on the handle; numerous minor scratches on the hardware; and a stain inside.]

【真品专柜：128，500￥，需配货1:1.8--1:2.2！】

[Secondhand market value: ¥100,000!]

Should it be renovated immediately?

Upon hearing this, Lü Yang showed a thoughtful expression. This bag, after acquiring other items, would cost around 400,000 yuan. In the second-hand market, a brand-new bag is more expensive than a bag without accessories in a boutique, sometimes reaching between 150,000 and 175,000 yuan.

With a little renovation, you can still make some money.

After thinking for a moment, Lü Yang looked at Cui Wei and said in a calm tone, "Young Master Cui, this milkshake white Kelly bag is a real gem, but it's missing too many things. The lock and key are gone, the corners are badly worn, and the handle is blackened. According to the current market price, other stores can usually offer up to 100,000, but I can offer 110,000 here."

Upon hearing this, Cui Wei frowned, somewhat troubled, "Boss Lü, isn't 110,000 too little? I bought this for 400,000 back then, and I urgently need the money. Could you raise the price a bit more?"

Lu Yang said helplessly, "This bag costs only 130,000 yuan in boutiques, and most of the 400,000 yuan price tag is for other items. Once it leaves the boutiques, it will be discounted. In other stores, it probably won't even cost 110,000 yuan, and at most it will be around 100,000 yuan."

"but……"

Lu Yang hesitated for a moment before reluctantly saying, "Young Master Cui needs the money urgently. Consider it making a friend. Let me see if I can offer a higher amount?"

After a long pause, Lü Yang finally spoke, "How about this, I'll add another five thousand, making it 115,000. That's my limit. Any higher and I'll have to take risks. After all, the secondhand market fluctuates, and if it drops, I'll lose some money."

Although Cui Wei felt a pang of regret, he knew that Lü Yang was indeed the best. He had made a lot of demands to get the bags back from his ex-girlfriends, and he would earn whatever he could. If all else failed, he would run away after selling the bags. So he immediately made the decision.

"Okay, 115,000 it is, deal!"
