C35 Counter Lady(part I)

After lunch, the two of them brought Little Treasure to the center of the city. They found the largest jewelry store in the city — Yi Bo Jewelry Store. Entering the luxuriously decorated exhibition hall, the two of them felt dizzy. Hundreds of square meters of exhibition hall were filled with glass counters of varying lengths. The counter was also filled with all kinds of gold and silver jewelry. The two of them looked around but didn't see any diamond inlaid jewelry.

The counter lady then walked to the opposite side of the counter and politely asked, "May I ask what kind of ring you two would like to choose? A couple ring or a wedding ring? If you need help, I can recommend a few styles. "

It was no wonder why the counter lady would ask such a question, because the counter in front of them just so happened to be a counter filled with rings. In the counter lady's eyes, the two people in front of her were most likely a married couple, they had children with them when they bought the ring, but the children were quite cute, the man was also handsome, and the woman was even more beautiful.

When Fang Hui and Ling Yan came to the jewelry store, they were afraid that others would misunderstand. Sure enough, the young lady at the counter said as soon as she saw her. Fang Hui's face turned red from embarrassment, but it wasn't good to be angry. The three of them standing in front of the ring counter was obviously asking others to misunderstand. Who were they to blame? However, Fang Hui did not seem to be angry at all. He hugged Xiaobao and looked around with a helpless expression. He used Xiaobao to cover his boiling white face so that no one else could see.

Ling Yan, on the other hand, was unperturbed. With a straight face and a calm heart, he asked, "May I ask if you have any diamonds to sell?" He was curious in his heart, why couldn't such a big jewelry shop see any diamonds? Although diamonds were precious, they shouldn't be to this extent, right?

The counter girl looked at them with surprise, she did not expect to be able to afford a diamond ring while wearing such ordinary clothes, but she was surprised, after all, the customer was God, so she politely replied, "If you want to buy a diamond ring, please go to the second floor."

"The second floor?" Ling Yan followed the direction of the counter girl's finger and saw a red carpeted staircase at the corner of the hall. He thanked her and the two of them brought Xiaobao up to the second floor.

The counter on the second floor was a lot more pleasing to the eye. In the middle of the hall, there were dozens of counters in the "open" shape, each of which had two rows of jewelry. The jewelry inside was not many, but they were all of the best quality, not comparable to the jewelry on the first floor.

Ling Yan couldn't help but shake his head as he looked at the diamonds embedded in the jewelry. These diamonds were just ordinary stones that had undergone changes due to the influence of spiritual energy. What kind of secondary crystal was this? No wonder he couldn't feel even the slightest fluctuation of spiritual energy downstairs. A pretty counter lady came up to welcome them. Seeing the two's wandering eyes, she lightly smiled and said: "Yibo Jewelry Store welcomes you two to come. May I ask what kind of jewelry you two would like to buy?"

Ling Yan was a little disappointed with this jewelry store. He indifferently asked, "Since this treasure shop is selling diamonds, I presume they will also buy diamonds, right?"

The counter lady did not understand, and was surprised by the question. She immediately nodded and said, "Of course, we will definitely use diamonds to make jewelry. Sir, do you have any diamonds for sale?" However, the counter lady couldn't believe it. Although the two of them were dressed neatly, anyone with a discerning eye could tell that they weren't some famous brand. Anyone with diamonds would wear these cheap clothes? Asking if there were any diamonds for sale was just out of politeness.

Unexpectedly, Ling Yan looked at her with a surprised expression. He nodded his head and said, "I have some diamonds that I want to sell to the Treasure Shop. Would you mind asking your manager to come out and discuss it with me?" Because you can't make the decision yet. " Ling Yan had clearly seen the look of disdain on the counter lady's face, so he didn't give her any face. He didn't say that she was lacking in rank, but he was already being courteous to her, and at the same time, he wanted to see her reaction. Ling Yan frowned slightly, not understanding what was going on.

Seeing that Ling Yan's expression was not a joke, the counter lady took out her cell phone and made a call. After making the call, she looked at the two of them, reached out her hand, and said: "Please wait in the VIP room for a moment, our manager will be here shortly." With that, he led the way, muttering in his heart: I hope you guys can take out the diamonds, but I also hope that the diamonds you guys took out are real. The counter girl took them to the VIP room and left without even making a cup of tea. Fang Hui chuckled. "The waitress seems to be angry. Ling Yan, why do you have to lower yourself to her level?" "Hahaha!"

Ling Yan also chuckled and said, "It's not that I'm mad at her, but I just don't want to talk to her for long." Ling Yan could feel that something was wrong with the counter girl, but he couldn't pinpoint exactly what it was. He had a feeling that he was rejecting her, but he couldn't find the reason either. He could only conceal it in his heart but didn't want to negotiate with her too much.

Hearing his words, Fang Hui felt an inexplicable sense of comfort in his heart and immediately smiled sweetly. As a woman, Fang Hui was more sensitive to beautiful women than Ling Yan. She also felt that the counter girl had a flirtatious air around her, especially when she walked with her seductive body that Fang Hui did not like. He pushed the restless Little Treasure down onto the sofa and said with a smile, "Baby, you're so naughty. Big sister's spanking you." Fang Hui pressed his hand on Little Treasure's stomach, causing him to feel itchy and to giggle non-stop.

Not long after, a short and fat middle-aged man pushed open the door with a face full of Maitreya Buddha's smile and said, "I'm sorry for making you wait for long, hehe!" Ling Yan sat on the sofa and didn't get up. He merely smiled and nodded his head before gesturing for Fatty to take a seat. From the looks of it, Ling Yan seemed to have become the owner of this place.

Fatty did not mind as he continued to smile sincerely. He looked at Fang Hui and Little Treasure and praised, "What a happy family!" Fang Hui's face flushed again.

Ling Yan smiled faintly and corrected him, "We are indeed a family, but she is my sister and the child is my younger brother."

"Oh!" Fatty was stunned for a moment before reacting. He smiled and said, "I'm sorry! "Hehe — I am surnamed Gu and am the substitute manager of the Treasure Shop. May I have your name, sir?" As expected of a businessman, his way of handling affairs was smooth and he did not talk about business first. He talked a lot about other matters, gave Ling Yan the "priority" over the "priority" he raised, and wanted to take the initiative to make the deal. Fatty thought that the young man in front of him appeared to be calm and steady, but he was, after all, not even twenty years of age.

Ling Yan could see the craftiness hidden in Fatty's eyes, but he was too lazy to care about it. He nodded and said, "Hello, Manager Gu. My surname is Ling, I have a diamond that I want to buy for your Treasure Shop." As he said this, he took out the low-grade crystal and handed it over to Fatty Gu. The light reflected off the stone was colorful and glistening, causing Fatty to be dazzled for a moment.

Fatty took the crystal stone and looked at it carefully with a puzzled expression. He was astonished. He no longer had the mood to be calm when dealing with Ling Yan. Instead, there was uncertainty in his blank expression.

As the manager of the jewelry store, Fatty had a certain level of knowledge about jewelry diamond business, but he couldn't see the quality of the diamonds in his hand because they had already exceeded the level he was familiar with. As such, even if the so-called top jewel fat people had come in contact with these diamonds before, Fatty would still be able to see the quality of the diamonds, but other than knowing that they were of the top quality, the diamond fat guy in his hand couldn't see anything else.

Turning his head to look at Ling Yan, Fatty suppressed the excitement in his heart. With an anxious expression, he asked, "Mister Ling, I would like to bring this diamond inside to ask the reverends of my sect to examine it. Is that alright?" Ling Yan smiled and said, "Sure, but please hurry up. After all, this isn't my home, is it?"

"Alright, alright. Mister Ling, please wait for a moment!" Fatty could not wait to leave with the diamond in his hand.

Fang Hui turned around, looking worried. "Ling Yan, aren't you afraid that they swapped the diamonds for us when they came out?" "There's no proof, if they really do that, we …"

"You don't have to worry about that. If they wanted to forcibly take the crystal, they would use other methods, not this kind of deceitful fraud. Moreover, they did not dare to say that they would not be able to afford it if they did that." Fang Hui was stunned when he heard that, and the way he looked at Ling Yan changed. He could feel an aura from Ling Yan's sitting body.

Ling Yan then smiled and said, "I actually hope that they can do that, because even if the quality of normal diamonds is the highest, they can still afford to buy them from us, but these are crystals that are a level higher than the value of diamonds. If there is someone among them who knows about diamonds, they will naturally know that they cannot afford them, and if they can't even think about buying them, they will definitely take another route."

Without a doubt, those who were able to identify the crystal were cultivators. Ling Yan's main purpose in selling the crystal was to see if he could find any traces of cultivators. The only condition for them to be accepted by their father was their own aptitude. In this planet lacking in spiritual energy, if they wanted to make any progress, their aptitude for cultivation would have to far surpass ordinary people. Otherwise, it would be very difficult to achieve a breakthrough, and their mother would definitely leave behind a certain number of crystals for them.

Those low-level disciples, in order to serve their teachers and teachers, as well as for their own cultivation, would go around the world to gather all the resources that could help in their cultivation. Diamonds were the closest to crystal stones, and they definitely would not let go of this industry. If it was by chance, the 'offering' mentioned by Fatty was most likely to be one of those low-level disciples.
