“These people don’t even look like me. How do I choose?”
Shan Bing thought that he had found a loophole and shook his head.
“If I tell you to choose then choose. I will show you the magic afterward!”
Wei Xiao Bei did not have that much patience to play around with Shan Bing and slapped his head.
It had been a while since Shan Bing had received this kind of treatment and he almost cried. His eyes were tearing up as he pointed at three of them.
Wei Xiao Bei immediately looked at Shan Bing’s build and appearance, storing the image in his mind. He then extended his left hand again, causing countless tendrils to come out and wrap up the 20 Persons.
Wei Xiao Bei still needed these Persons to go out and settle some matters for him. On the other hand, these Persons all looked the same. If he just let them out, he might just scare some people to death, so he needed to change them.
Changing the outer appearance like this did not require them to be wrapped in a cocoon.
In just half a minute, these Persons had all been changed.
Among them, three looked like Shan Bing. Shan Bing was dazed; it was as if he was looking at a mirror.
“Okay. Bring these three stand-ins back with you in a while. Next, I need your help with something.”
Wei Xiao Bei waved his hand, causing the other 17 Persons to nod. They opened Wei Xiao Bei’s wardrobe and put on clothes.
Luckily, Wei Xiao Bei was diligent and thrifty. He had kept all of his clothes, even his army uniform when he was a soldier. He also took out some more clothes from his storage bracelet for them to wear.
At this moment, the 17 Persons all wore clothes, but they were all different. They were too different that Wei Xiao Bei felt that they were too eye-catching.
Thinking about this, Wei Xiao Bei might as well let them stay at the back warehouse first. Normal people would not go there, and he had the keys so he did not need to worry about scaring people.
After driving away the 17 Persons, Wei Xiao Bei took out a few pieces of Jade from his storage bracelet and placed them on the table.
“I would like to trouble you with selling these pieces of Jade.”
Shan Bing felt that his experience today was too magical.
Let alone the Persons that were created, just Wei Xiao Bei taking out the Jade almost caused him to fall on the ground.
There were three pieces of jade that were all two-foot wide and were at least 20 grams in weight.
If these three pieces of jade were normal jade such as white jade or green jade, then he wouldn’t have cared much, but these three pieces were all Sheep-Fat White Jade.
Shan Bing could not believe his eyes. He stared at the Jade for a long time and then touched them with his hands.
It’s truly Sheep-Fat White Jade!
“F***! Boss, are you trying to test the limits of my mental state?”
This was the first time Shan Bing cursed in front of his revered Boss.
What kind of joke is this? How could there be 2-foot long pieces of Sheep-Fat White Jades in front of me?
This thing could only be produced in ancient times right?
In short, the production of Sheep-Fat White Jade at the moment was the size of a fist. That was already considered a rare article.
In normal situations. Sheep-Fat White Jade was normally the size of a finger. Thus, it had been nicknamed as a seed-like material due to its image.
“Help me make an estimate, then sell it.”
Seeing Shan Bing’s expression, Wei Xiao Bei noticed that he seemed to have underestimated the price of Sheep-Fat White Jade.
The fragmented Sheep-Fat White Jade had already been sold by Shan Bing. In order for Wei Xiao Bei to raise more money, he needed to cut one of the five big pieces of Sheep-Fat White Jade into smaller pieces to sell.
It must be said that the total amount of the three pieces of Sheep-Fat White Jades was not as much as the Jade he sold before, but the price was higher.
“I have no way to appraise this. It is a unique treasure! In ancient times, this object would never appear among the normal people!”
Shan Bing looked at Wei Xiao Bei and shook his head.
“Can it sell it for one billion?” Wei Xiao Bei did not care about it being a unique treasure. If he could not sell it, then it was worthless!
“Boss, I can help you find a master carver to turn these into exhibitable items. After selling it at an auction, it could easily reach more than 5 billion!”
Shan Bing hesitated and gave Wei Xiao Bei a reasonable estimate.
It was very clear that since the large piece of Sheep-Fat White Jade was a unique treasure, then finding an appropriate expert sculptor would take a long time. Once the expert sculptor was found, then they would have to familiarize themselves with the nature of the jade. Only after considering all cases could they begin cutting!
In other words, if Wei Xiao Bei truly needed money right now, this proposition was useless.
Shan Bing had no way of dealing with it. This thing was simply too precious. Even finding a buyer would take quite a while. It would be better to just turn it into an artwork and sell it at an auction.
As for the Hua Yang Group, with the Wild Doors disappearance case, Shan Bing was now hard-pressed. How could he still have money to make a purchase. It must be known that the Hua Yan Group had just used 200 million USD to buy Wei Xiao Bei’s piece of jade.
Expert sculptor?
Wei Xiao Bei smiled.
Aren’t I an expert sculptor?
What? My [Carving] is just at master level?
Isn’t that an easy matter to settle?
Wei Xiao Bei looked at his evolution points. This time he had gained a lot of evolution points. His evolution points now amounted to 31,220 points!
COMMENT
How much could the [Carving] skill consume?
“Okay, how many days before the auction?”
At this time, Wei Xiao Bei could already see a large amount of money coming in. After settling the matter of the three pieces of jade, there should be enough money to buy an island.
Five billion Chinese Yuan was equal to one billion USD!
It was enough.
As long as Wei Xiao Bei did not want to buy an island with a large area of land, then one billion was enough. He could probably buy an island that did not have water but had an area that was hundreds of square kilometers.
“There is still half a month.”
Shan Bing was a bit puzzled, but he could not change Wei Xiao Bei decision.
When Shan Bing brought away the three Persons, Wei Xiao Bei did not send him out. He immediately called in Zhu Xin Yi, Huang Kun, Xiao Bai Ling, and Che Mei Han into his room, and checked his account in front of them.
At this time, Wei Xiao Bei’s bank account had a lot of money. The money from the auction of Roman equipment had arrived into his account with a total of 6.7 million USD. It had exceeded his expectations.
Additionally, Huang Kun’s mother, Zhou Rong had sent the medicinal fund to buy more Chinese Miracle Medicine. The business that was only two months old now had assets in the tens of millions USD. From this, it could be seen that, although Zhou Rong married a foreigner, she did not weaken at all on the business side. Her moves were quite sinister, but Wei Xiao Bei did not hate it.
The last amount of money that came in was from Shan Bing’s father buying the Jade which was 200 million USD! There was an additional 20 million Chinese Yuan thrown in, as Shan Bing’s father was said to have been very pleased with it. Naturally, there was also a possibility that this was remuneration for the disappearance case of Wild Doors.
Just like that, Wei Xiao Bei’s bank account now had a total of 218.9 million USD! As for Chinese yuan, there were more than 20 million Chinese yuan.
Seeing the large numbers, the people that he called in were all stunned.
It was easy to imagine how high they looked up to Wei Xiao Bei. They were not suspicious that Wei Xiao Bei was playing with them. However, this was the first time they had seen this much money, even Huang Kun was the same. Thus, it was normal for them to be stunned.
Wei Xiao Bei immediately placed 10 million Chinese yuan into the security company’s bank account.
Wei Xiao Bei planned to keep the USD first. Thus, he gave Wei Xing Wu 10 million Chinese yuan first to start his plans.
Additionally, Wei Xiao Bei asked for everyone’s bank accounts and gave them 3 million each.
Seeing Wei Xiao Bei’s actions, everyone expressed that they did not want the money.
However, Wei Xiao Bei had already considered things. It was hard to say that nothing would happen as long as one lived. He gave everyone 3 million for them to deal with things that they might need to deal with. In the future, there might be no way for them to deal with it.
Naturally, Wei Xiao Bei also divulged the matter of him buying an island as an escape route.
In short, he wanted them to prepare for their family and friends. If they had people to get, then they should bring them. If they were not willing to leave, just give them money. It was that simple.
After all, Wei Xiao Bei planned to buy an island after half a month. Once he bought an island, he might need someone to stay there for a long time to help him deal with some matters.
Hearing Wei Xiao Bei’s words, everyone nodded in agreement. Even Huang Kun had things he needed to do.
To be more accurate, when Huang Kun heard how serious his master was, he prepared to buy legal copies of every game as well as prepare two desktop computers. In the future, he would not be bored on the island.
1 It could be said that Wei Xiao Bei’s method of blasting people with money was something to be looked down upon, but the results were magnificent!
Even Zhu Xin Yi was in high spirits and did not show any expression of dissatisfaction.
Naturally, if someone else had been blasted with money like this, there might be some negative effects. There was even a chance that they would be beaten half to death by Zhu Xin Yi.
Afterward, Wei Xiao Bei asked about Xiao Bai Ling’s martial progress.
Although Xiao Bai Ling was a bit older, such that the traditional view would think that she could not learn anything, she was actually able to stabilize her foundation in this period of time, showing that she had talent. Wei Xiao Bei was greatly satisfied with this.
Naturally, Zhu Xin Yi also expressed that Xiao Bai Ling was very diligent and was not inferior to her at all.
In the end, Wei Xiao Bei also let Che Mei Han follow Zhu Xin Yi in martial training. Moreover, he let Zhu Xin Yi take care of her. Zhu Xin Yi did not express rejection, on the contrary, she was excited.
Perhaps she wanted to learn from Che Mei Han how to seduce the Master.
After settling these matters, Wei Xiao Bei drove everyone out.
After finishing his preparation, there were some other things that he needed to deal with.
He had to first decide how to use the Evolution Points that now exceeded 30,000.
Wei Xiao Bei looked at his original plans and pondered for a moment. He decided to first increase his [Carving] skill to advance his plans.
