Pei Miao thought for a while, and said, "The situation is different now. The company used to be yours, but now you are only a minority shareholder, and you are helping the company bet with stones. Obviously, you have lost money."

Geng Zhi smiled and said: "No loss, I added the title of stone gambling expert to myself, and all salary and treatment are given according to the treatment of stone gambling experts. Of course, I must treat myself according to the cheapest stone gambling expert on the market. "

"Then I've wronged you." Pei Miao said, "You don't have to do this. The company wants raw jadeite, and I can provide it. I can get it from me at 90% of the market price."

Geng Zhi asked: "Do you have many?"

Pei Miao said: "Anyway, there are quite a few. I also have such high-quality goods as ice-type and glass-type jadeite. There are several hundred kilograms of medium-sized jadeite, about [-] kilograms of above-average jadeite, and dozens of kilograms of high-quality jadeite above the ice variety. "

"Amazing!" Geng Zhi exclaimed when he heard the words, "Now that the jadeite market is in such a downturn, where did you get so many good jadeites?"

Pei Miao said, "It's all cut out by me betting stones, and I'm actually a master stone betting master."

"It's incredible." Geng Zhihuan exclaimed happily, "When this big public offering is over, you and I will go back to the company and bring all your materials to the company, and then let's hold a shareholder meeting to talk about the company's future. How about a step forward?"

"Okay, no problem." Pei Miao agreed, and said, "By the way, let me tell you something, I cut a piece of material today, it is a six-color jadeite, very beautiful, a jewelry appraiser told me, Such a good material should be carved into an ornament by a master jade carving, I asked your father, and he asked me to find you, saying that you really need this kind of material to break through to the level of a master jade carving."

"Six-color emeralds?!" Geng Zhi became more excited when he heard the words, and hurriedly said, "Send me a photo to show me."

Pei Miao said, "Wait a minute, the material is in the car in the garage, I'll go and take a picture and send it to you."

Pei Miaodang even got up and went downstairs, went to the underground garage, ran to his big G, opened the safe, took out the six-color emerald inside, took pictures from different angles, took eight pictures in total, and then took the eight pictures together. All photos were sent to Geng Zhi.

By the time Geng Zhi returned the message, Pei Miao had already put Jade back into the car, then sat in the back seat, waiting slowly for Geng Zhi's message.

After a while, Geng Zhi sent a video call invitation, Pei Miao connected the video call, and saw Geng Zhi shouting excitedly on the phone screen: "Keep this material for me, you must keep it for me, this is what I want I am looking for a good material, this material can be divided into two pieces, and can be carved with any color, it is really a rare good material! Please keep it for me!"

Seeing that he was so excited, Pei Miao knew how good this piece of material was, and immediately nodded with a smile: "Don't worry, since you want it, no matter how high the price is, others won't sell it. I will definitely keep it for you."

"Thank you, thank you, thank you..." Geng Zhi walked into the bathroom and said, "Whether I can be called a jade carving master depends entirely on the material!"

As soon as the words fell, there was the sound of water flowing.

Based on the scene behind him, Pei Miao could see that he was in the bathroom, so she couldn't help but have a wonderful expression: "Are you booing?"

"That's right." Geng Zhi smiled, "Two big men are videoing, there is nothing to be taboo about shhh, and you can't see it. By the way, I live in the Manhattan Hotel, which is right here on xxx Road. Where do you live? of?"

Pei Miao said, "My friend arranged a villa for me. Every time I go out, I rely on navigation. I really don't know the exact place name."

"Wow, someone has arranged a place to stay, that's great." Geng Zhi said, "Shall we meet tomorrow?"

Pei Miao smiled and said, "The meeting is fake, but the piece of six-color emerald that I want to see is real."

Geng Zhi suddenly laughed: "Don't expose me, I will be very embarrassed, oh—"

His last oh--was because he shivered. It's soulless not to shiver after peeing.

Pei Miao smiled, and said, "Okay, send me the address, and I'll go find you tomorrow."

Geng Zhi said: "No, you send me the address, I will look for you tomorrow, this stone will be placed with you for the time being, and I will give it to me when I return to Jinling. I am staying in a hotel now, and I will bring such a valuable thing with me." It's also inconvenient."

"Okay, then I'll hang up first, and I'll send you the address later."

"Okay, bye."

When the video was interrupted, Pei Miao sent his location to Geng Zhi, and after sending the location, he went upstairs and returned to his room.

The next morning, when Pei Miao was still eating breakfast, Geng Zhi called. Pei Miao answered the phone, but before he could say "Hello", Geng Zhi hurriedly said, "I'm outside, open the door!"

Pei Miao hurriedly got up and ran outside, just as the nanny ran into the house, saw Pei Miao and said, "Mr. Pei, there is a Mr. Geng looking for you."

Pei Miao said, "Open the door and let him in."

The nanny aunt immediately went to open the courtyard door.

The courtyard door opened, and the straightforward car drove directly into the courtyard.

Geng Zhi got out of the car, looked around, walked up to Pei Miao, said with a smile, "Wow, what a big house, you live in too extravagantly."

Pei Miao laughed and said, "My friend's house is usually vacant, since I'm here, it's a good time to let me live."

Geng Zhi said: "Go, take me to see Jade."

Pei Miao smiled and nodded, "Come with me."

Pei Miao took him into the house, took the elevator into the underground garage, walked to the big g, opened the back door of the car, opened the safe after entering the car, and took out the six-color emerald.

"Wow..." Seeing this piece of six-color emerald, Zhi Zhi's eyes became colorful.

"I'll be good..." Geng Zhi couldn't believe it when he took this piece of jade from Pei Miao's hand, looked left, right, up, down, looking through all kinds of things, couldn't put it down...

After he looked at it for a while, Pei Miao said, "Unfortunately, there is a big crack in the middle..."

"It doesn't affect, it doesn't affect at all." Geng Zhi hurriedly interrupted Pei Miao, and said, "This one is good, very good!"

"Okay?" Pei Miao was confused when she heard the words, "What's so good about such a big crack?"

Geng Zhi said: "Without this crack, there would be no black element in it, and there would be one less color."

Pei Miao nodded when she heard the words: "That's true, there is black jadeite in it, although the color and species of this black jadeite are much worse than other colors, but for multi-colored jadeite, it is very easy to have one more color. important."

Geng Zhi said again: "Besides, this crack does not affect the carving. Cut this piece of jade into two halves from the crack, which is just enough to make two decorations, um... what to do..."

While speaking, Geng Zhi fell into deep thought.

Pei Miao was afraid of affecting his inspiration, so he simply sat aside and didn't speak. Who knew that after sitting for three and a half hours, Pei Miao fell asleep without knowing it.

Suddenly, Geng Zhi happily shouted: "I thought of it! Haha! I'm simply a genius!"

Pei Miao was awakened by this sound, he wiped his saliva, looked left and right, then looked at Geng Zhi, and said, "Think about it?"

"I figured it out." Geng Zhi said excitedly, "I immediately thought of the themes of the two ornaments. Not only can they be matched with the color, but they are also very practical. They are definitely not the kind of ornaments that can be viewed with light."

"Really?" Pei Miao was surprised when he heard this. He looked at his piece of jade and was very curious. To be honest, the shape of this piece of jade is not very good. It is thick on the left side and slightly thinner on the right. , the raised part is like a long Himalayan mountain range rising from the plateau border of our country. The thickness here is nine to ten centimeters, while the thinnest part on the right is only three centimeters thick.

Pei Miao asked curiously, "Then what are you going to carve?"

"Secret it first." Geng Zhi excitedly said, "When I'm done, I'll show you as soon as possible, it will definitely blind your dog... your eyes, haha, this can definitely be called a master work for me to advance to the master realm .”

Pei Miao hurriedly asked, "Then... can your masterpiece be put up for auction at my auction?"

Geng Zhi was taken aback when he heard the words, raised his eyebrows and said: "Of course, the finished product after successful carving is yours, not mine. All decisions are up to you."

"Is it mine?" Pei Miao asked in confusion, "Why is it mine?"

Geng Zhi said: "This emerald belongs to you, and I didn't buy it from you. Of course the carved thing is yours. I just borrowed your material to use it and take this opportunity to advance to the master realm. But then again, if you really It is also a good thing to put my master's work at the auction, let the whole country know that there is a new jade carving master in the jade world, and I have not insulted my father's reputation."

Pei Miao asked, "Isn't the work of a master very expensive?"

Geng Zhi said: "Of course, for the two works I carved for you this time, I will conservatively estimate that the starting price is 8000 million."

"So expensive!" Pei Miao exclaimed, "Are you kidding me?"

Geng Zhi said: "This is just a conservative estimate. After you see my finished product, you will feel that the price is too low."

Pei Miao was stupefied, seeing Geng Zhi's confident appearance, he was really afraid that Geng Zhi's bullshit would blow up.

But since Geng Zhi said this, Pei Miao couldn't question anything, and he couldn't hit him at this time, so Pei Miao could only clenched his fist perfunctorily: "Come on!"

Geng Zhi handed the jade back to Pei Miao and said, "Give this jade to me as soon as you return to Jinling."

Pei Miao asked, "Then how long will it take you to make the finished product?"

Geng Zhi said: "Now that the concept has been conceived, we can start working directly when we get it. It will take about half a month to 20 days to make the first finished product."

Pei Miao calculated the time, and in time for the auction company's first auction, she said, "Then you have to hurry up, our first auction is very tight."

Geng Zhi said seriously: "This is the only way in terms of time. I can't rush. The first thing I want to ensure is the quality of this jade carving. If it doesn't reach the level of a master, it will be a waste of materials."

"Okay." Pei Miao said helplessly, "Whether we can catch up with the first auction depends on God's will."

While speaking, he put the jade back into the safe.

The two got out of the car, walked towards the elevator, entered the elevator, Pei Miao pressed the button, took out his phone and checked the time, and said in surprise, "It's already noon."

Geng Zhi said: "Is it noon? I feel like I just looked at the jade for a while."

Pei Miao said: "If you're immersed in it, you won't feel the passage of time. It's already lunch time. Let's stay and have lunch together."

Geng Zhi chuckled and said, "Then I won't be polite."

While talking, the elevator door opened, and the two walked out of the elevator, walked through the corridor, and heard someone talking in the living room, so they came to the living room.

When I came to the living room, I saw Ye Xiangnan chatting with a girl in the hallway, and Ye Xiangnan was dragging a suitcase in his hand.

I saw this girl wearing a loose white T-shirt. Under the T-shirt were big white legs with long sleeves and a white aj. The girl turned her back to Pei Miao, and all she could see was that her black hair was straight and shiny, and the ends of her hair reached her back.

When Ye Xiangnan saw Pei Miao, he immediately got up and said with a smile, "Uncle is here."

Hearing the sound, the girl turned around and looked at Pei Miao, who also looked at her, and saw that the girl was very beautiful, with pointed eyebrows and nose, small lips, and most importantly, a pair of almond eyes, very attractive.

Pei Miao smiled and asked, "Who is this beauty?"

Ye Xiangnan hurriedly said: "My cousin, Ye Lan."

Pei Miao nodded to Ye Lan, it was regarded as a greeting.

Ye Lan looked at Pei Miao a lot, and asked, "Are you my grandfather's closed disciple—Pei Miao?"

Pei Miao nodded with a smile, "Yes, it's me."

"It looks like that." Ye Lan's tone was full of disdain.

Pei Miao's eyebrows danced immediately, no matter how virtuous the younger generation of the Ye family is.

Ye Xiangnan hurriedly said: "Sister, don't talk nonsense, uncle is very powerful."

Ye Lan raised her eyebrows and said, "Why do you call him uncle?"

Ye Xiangnan said: "He is a closed disciple of grandpa, and is of the same generation as our father, shouldn't we be called uncle?"

Ye Lan couldn't refute the words.

Pei Miao waved his hands and smiled, "Don't say that, we are all about the same age, just call me by my name."

Ye Lan said: "If you asked me to call you uncle, I wouldn't do it either."

While speaking, she was already sitting on the sofa.

Seeing her teasing attitude, Pei Miao couldn't help but think of Ye Xiangnan and Wang Xiaoshuai who used to be teased. Now that the two of them see that they are not submissive, of course, Pei Miao has no interest in taming girls. And he doesn't have this obligation, since she is Ye Lao's granddaughter, he just doesn't have the same knowledge as her.

Pei Miao pointed to Ye Xiangnan's suitcase: "Your?"

"My sister's." Ye Xiangnan grinned and said, "Uncle, my sister may rent you here for a while."

Pei Miao said, "No problem, there are still vacant rooms upstairs."

"Thank you uncle." Ye Xiangnan thanked happily, and then led Ye Lan through the living room and went upstairs.

At this time, the nanny came over and called, "Mr. Pei, it's time to eat."

"Well, here we come." Pei Miao waved at Geng Zhi, "Let's go to eat."

When the two came to the restaurant, they saw that everyone had already sat down, and another nanny was serving food to the table.

Wang Xiaoshuai usually walked closest to Ye Xiangnan, now seeing that the chair beside him was empty, he asked, "Uncle, where is Ye Xiangnan?"

Ye Xiangnan called Pei Miao "Uncle". After Wang Xiaoshuai was tamed by Pei Miao, he gradually respected Pei Miao, but this was the first time he called him "Uncle". Later, I realized the title.

The others didn't notice it, didn't react at all, and Pei Miao didn't notice it either, because Ye Xiangnan often called it that way, and he was used to it, so he said, "Send his cousin upstairs, Auntie, please go upstairs and call him one time."

The auntie nanny responded, and went upstairs to call Ye Xiangnan.

Wang Xiaoshuai was surprised and said, "His cousin? Ye Lan's murderous wife is also here?"

Pei Miao looked at him suspiciously: "You know her?"

"It's not just that I know her, she's just a crazy woman." Wang Xiaoshuai rolled his eyes immediately, "She even took off my pants when I was a child."
