Chapter 365; They are jade stones?
"Those stones don’t have anything worth inside! The only thing they could find after cutting was some low-grade glass Jades, which even sold won’t guarantee you to earn even half a million from it, the highest a person had ever earned was eight hundred thousand, which is still a loss! Sigh!" The guards explained to her why people were avoiding that stall at all costs, it was like they were scamming people with those low-grade stones that contained nothing inside.
"They are jade stones?" Su Wei Wei wasn’t actually interested in gambling since Huo Shen had cautioned her to stay away from that activity, but here she was, of course, she could see what called her over so eagerly.
"Miss, these Jades are very good and of high quality, how about you buy one? My daughter is sick and needs immediate medical attention, we are running low on funds! If you could buy just even one, this Old Man would be grateful!" That man’s face was all sad and wrinkled up looking conflicted and like he was selling at a loss, you could feel the pain from his hoarse voice and knew he was in a disastrous situation.
Su Wei Wei scrutinized this Old Man closely and immediately recognized him, he wasn’t a nobody in this society, but why was he acting like a beggar here trying to sell low-grade stones since he was known well around the place? She turned around and gazed at the girl beside the man who was acting all weak but in a real sense she was very much healthy. It was just that, her skin was paler and you would think she was sick, but in the real sense, it was her natural skin color.
Su Wei Wei slightly smirked feeling like laughing, she stretched her hand out and snatched away that fan the Old Man was holding and began fanning herself while gazing at the man knowingly with interest written all over her face.
"Haiya... Miss... Please help my grandpa, I actually don’t want to drag him through all this pain but he doesn’t listen, these rocks are very good and profitable!" She loudly coughed looking all frail and weak as age slightly staggered, she was wearing a black hanfu dress and with her pale skin, you would think she was seriously sick.
Were they cosplaying or they were targeting something else? What were they gaining by doing this?
"I only have a quarter of a million, what do you think? It’s a good deal, right? I actually didn’t have a budget for buying any of these unimportant rocks, but my heart aches for the two of you seeing how hardworking you are... I’m a kind person and would wish you get enough funds for your granddaughter’s treatment!" Since they were playing around, she would also play around with them and see what they had to decide.
