The village beauty and me!

Chapter 158 The Difference Between Buying Things and Shopping

Seeing Liu Qian's secretive demeanor, Chen Huan casually asked, "What's going on? Not another party, is it?"

Liu Qian giggled, "You little rascal, haven't you had enough to eat yet? Still thinking about throwing a party?"

"If you like, I can arrange a gathering for you sometime. Rich young ladies and beautiful young women, as many as you want."

Chen Huan chuckled twice, "Forget it, I'm afraid my body can't handle it."

Liu Qian glanced at him and said, "You're being too modest."

"I was going to ask you that too, what did you eat growing up? How do you have such great stamina?"

"Although I lack experience, it's still a place I really want to stay in."

"Ahem, where are we going? If it's far, you can drive." Chen Huan cleverly changed the subject.

"Okay, I'll be your driver today. Let's go to the county town." Liu Qian got into the driver's seat.

She was surprisingly adept at driving a manual transmission pickup truck, shifting gears smoothly and driving steadily, unlike a pampered young rich woman who was used to a life of luxury.

"Sister Liu, what kind of business did you start with?" Chen Huan asked with interest from the passenger seat.

Liu Qian, who had just put on her sunglasses, glanced at him. "What? Judging from my demeanor, don't I look like a rich heiress who inherited a fortune?"

"Am I only fit to start from scratch and work my way up?"

Chen Huan coughed twice more. "I don't mean to look down on you, I just think you should be the kind of entrepreneurial person with guts."

Liu Qian laughed heartily, "I really love listening to you talk, kid. It's worth all the good things I did for you earlier."

Chen Huan was aroused by her words and his lust was burning.

  

Quickly straighten your mind and desperately circulate your internal energy to consume the true energy that has just accumulated in your body.

I didn't dare ask any more questions after that.

A moment later, he suddenly realized that Liu Qian seemed to have been deliberately avoiding his attempts to probe her situation.

For example, their net worth, background, and what kind of business they do.

This woman is far more mysterious than she appears.

"Chen Huan, how much do you know about jewelry and jade?" Liu Qian asked with great interest.

"Jewelry?" Chen Huan frowned slightly.

He then said with a wry smile, "I'm just a farmer from the countryside, how could I possibly know anything about jewelry?"

"That's not right." Liu Qian gave him a deep look.

He continued, "When you caused a scene at the antique market before, you demonstrated real strength, including your ability to appraise and judge jade."

"If you tell me it's all based on luck, you're insulting my intelligence."

Chen Huan scratched his head. "Actually, I only learned a little bit from a book. I don't know much."

"As for jewelry, which you mentioned, I have absolutely no expertise in that area."

Liu Qian frowned slightly, "It's alright, as long as you know how to appraise jade."

"Anyway, that jewelry and jade exhibition isn't just about jewelry; the real highlight is the jade itself."

"A jewelry exhibition?"

"Are you taking me to a place like that, to go shopping?" Chen Huan was a little dumbfounded.

He knew that wealthy women would inevitably like top-tier jewelry and jade, and Liu Qian was clearly no exception.

However, Liu Qian shook her head, "It's to buy things, not to go shopping."

Chen Huan pursed her lips. "Is there a difference between the two?"

Liu Qian responded earnestly, "Of course there's a difference. When shopping, I just need to pick what I like, or, according to my personality, I'll just pick the most expensive one, and that's fine."

"But when buying things, you have to be sure that they are worth the price, and ideally, they should be worth more than the price."

"How can these be the same?"

Liu Qian's few words completely confused Chen Huan.

Seeing his bewildered expression, Liu Qian laughed.

He then patiently explained, "There is a very grand and solemn jewelry and jade exhibition in the county today."

"The person who organized this exhibition is very capable, especially in the industry where they have a significant influence."

"The county town is his hometown, so he chose it as the venue for the exhibition."

"Many colleagues from this province, and even from other provinces, will come to support us. Most importantly, they want to build a good relationship with this big name in the jewelry and jade industry so that they can obtain more resources and support in the industry in the future."

Chen Huan blinked. "So you also want to get involved and start a jade and jewelry business?"

Liu Qian shook her head. "It's not me, and I don't like doing business."

"At most, it's just running errands for others and making connections."

"To put it bluntly, it's about spending other people's money to buy things for them, in order to curry favor with that jewelry and jade tycoon."

It would have been better if Liu Qian hadn't explained; after she did, Chen Huan was even more confused, completely unable to understand what she was saying.

Liu Qian thought for a moment and then reorganized her words, "This important person is called Situ Bi. Although he is very famous in the industry, he is quite low-key and has a somewhat eccentric temper."

"His jewelry and jade exhibitions have always adhered to one principle: those who are destined to receive them will get them."

"To put it bluntly, the jewelry and jade items he brought out were arbitrarily priced, and some were even not priced at all. Their value was judged entirely by the wishes or discerning eye of the person who wanted to buy them."

Hearing this, Chen Huan finally understood a little.

He tentatively suggested, "If someone buys what Situ Bi considers the best jewelry or jade, it's equivalent to gaining his approval, and even his favor and support, right?"

Liu Qian nodded. "That's right, that's exactly what I mean."

"So I think that our meeting today is God's way of sending you to be my assistant."

"If you have a keen eye and can find the most outstanding pieces at this jewelry exhibition, that would be a huge help to me."

"You'll definitely get your share of the benefits later, sister."

"Although we've met more than once, my sister still has many special skills she hasn't used yet. I don't usually unlock them easily."

Having said that, Liu Qian became incredibly charming again, her words and expressions filled with seduction and provocation.

Chen Huan swallowed hard, trying to suppress the rising desire within him.

To distract herself, she quickly replied, "Sister Liu, don't get your hopes up too high."

"After all, my abilities are limited. I'm afraid that the higher your expectations, the greater your disappointment will be."

Liu Qian raised an eyebrow. "I believe that the satisfaction you can bring me is not just physical."

"Once you get there, you must do your best. If you get the job done, we can discuss any conditions."

Chen Huan stopped asking questions and focused on circulating his internal energy to clear the blockages in his body.

We waited until the car slowed down and came to a complete stop.

Chen Huan snapped out of his meditation and realized he was in the stadium in the center of the county town.

This is the venue for this jewelry and jade exhibition.

"Alright, let's get off the bus. I hope we succeed soon." Liu Qian looked very confident.

After getting out of the car, the two were about to walk towards the entrance when a high-end business car not far away arrogantly ignored the staff's attempts to stop it and drove right up to the entrance.

Two men who looked like bodyguards quickly got out of the car and opened the side door.

A tall woman with excellent looks and temperament walked out.

Liu Qian's confident smile froze instantly.

He muttered, slightly annoyed, "Why is she here too?"
