Chapter 64: Social Death

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Lin Bai really did not expect that the young boss to be so insistent.

“Alright, since he insists that we peeked, then let’s check the surveillance cameras. Let’s see if we were around when he filled out the auction form.”

Lin Bai said helplessly.

In any case, he and Luo Yang were honest and not afraid of them checking the surveillance camera footage.

Seeing that Lin Bai was so cooperative, the organizer was secretly relieved.

“Please come with me.”

He led Lin Bai and Luo Yang to the surveillance room.

The young boss was also there.

As soon as Luo Yang saw the young boss, he immediately became angry.

The air was faintly filled with some tension.

Lin Bai was very calm. He directly ignored the gaze of the young boss and said to the organizer, “Let’s begin.”

The person in charge brought up the surveillance footage from yesterday afternoon and quickly replayed it.

On the screen, it clearly showed that after Lin Bai and Luo Yang entered the public auction venue yesterday, they walked and looked at it as they walked. Finally, they arrived at the edge of the stone and started to fill in the bidding form.

During the entire process, they had not met the young boss at all, so it was naturally impossible for them to peek at the bids.

Besides, Lin Bai did not do anything suspicious during the process of filling in the bidding form.

Lin Bai said, “The surveillance footage clearly shows that the two of us did not communicate with anyone during the whole process, so we were very well-behaved when filling in the bidding form. There should be no objections now, right?”

The young boss did not relent and said, “Who knows if you have any accomplices? Maybe the accomplices peeked and told you!”

Lin Bai was so angry that he almost laughed.

“Sir, please think before you speak, okay?”

“Are you a big jadeite merchant or something? Is it worth our effort just to peep at your bid and snatch a piece of material from you?”

“If we really wanted to cheat, we should have peeked at the bids of those well-known jadeite merchants instead of looking at a nobody like you.”

The young boss was furious, but he couldn’t refute because what Lin Bai said was very reasonable.

No matter how successful he was in other industries, he was a complete layman?in the jade industry.

Peeking at his bids would be pointless.

At this moment, the person in charge paused the surveillance camera footage replay and pointed at a figure on the screen, asking the young boss,?“Sir, the person on the surveillance screen is you, right?”

The young boss glanced at the screen and nodded to confirm, “Yes, it’s me.”

The person-in-charge said, “Then there’s no need to continue investigating.”

“Mr. Lin and Mr. Luo bid at four o’clock yesterday afternoon.”

“And you only entered the venue at 4:30 and filled in the auction form at five o’clock. You’re a full hour later than Mr. Lin and Mr. Luo.”

“Do you think they have superpowers that can predict how much money you’re going to bid an hour in advance?”

The young boss was completely speechless this time.

His face was flushed red from holding it in. He stammered a few incoherent words before turning around to run away.

Lin Bai looked at the person-in-charge and asked, “Can we sign the contract now?”

The person-in-charge replied repeatedly, “Yes, yes, of course. Mr. Lin, Mr. Luo, please follow me.”

Thus, the three of them returned the way they came and finally finished signing the contract that they had not signed before.

After signing the contract, the person-in-charge asked, “May I ask how long it will take for you to pay for the goods?”

Lin Bai said, “We can do it now. Do you have a credit card machine?”

“Yes, yes, yes.” The person-in-charge quickly pushed the card reader in front of Lin Bai.

Lin Bai did not even blink as he directly swiped the card to pay the sum of 300 million and one yuan.

Even the person-in-charge was secretly amazed by his suave action.

Although he had closed deals worth hundreds of millions of yuan before, those who could pay hundreds of millions of Yuan in a go like Lin Bai were really rare.

Moreover, Lin Bai was so young. He looked to be in his early twenties at most.

Owning such massive wealth at such a young age made it hard for others to not be envious of him.

Fortunately, the person in charge was very professional. No matter how amazed he was, he still maintained a very decent appearance on the surface.

“Mr. Lin, how do you plan to handle this stone? Do you need our assistance in transporting it?”

Lin Bai nodded and said, “Yes, I do. Help me find a master to cut it open. I want to see what’s inside.”

The person-in-charge smiled and said, “Okay, no problem.”

“Later, we will send other staff members to help you transport the material over to be cut.”

“Is there anything else I can help you with?”

“No.”

Lin Bai said, “Please help me transport the material away quickly. I’m anxious to see what it looks like after it’s cut open.”

The person in charge immediately said, “Okay, okay. I’ll make the arrangements right away.”

After the person in charge left, Luo Yang didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. He said what he had been holding in his heart for a long time.

He said, “Boss, why did you pay all the money? Didn’t you say that I would pay 500,000 yuan?”

Lin Bai said, “It’s troublesome to keep moving around. Your share of the money can be offset from the profits.”

The subtext of this sentence was that Lin Bai believed that after the material was cut open, the price would definitely rise.

Lin Bai’s certainty made Luo Yang feel much more at ease.

The other jade merchants in the venue were all shocked when they heard that Lin Bai had actually paid off the 300 million yuan on the spot.

“Oh my God, no way! Is this for real?”

“He just swiped his card to pay 300 million without even blinking?”

“To be able to come up with so much money in one go, he is definitely not an ordinary person. He is either a young and promising entrepreneur or a super-rich second generation heir.”

Someone said so.

But just as he finished speaking, someone immediately rebuked him.

“Isn’t that obvious? If he isn’t a rich scion, could he be a bank robber?”

“He looks so young. He definitely hasn’t started a business before, so he must be a rich second-generation heir.”

“A normal rich second-generation heir doesn’t have that much money. He must have a powerful background! No, I have to ask the secretary to help me check quickly.”

Someone mustered up the courage to talk to Lin Bai.

“Mr. Lin, I see that the person in charge of the organizer has gone to contact the moving workers. May I ask where you plan to transport the material to?”

Lin Bai originally did not want to pay attention to him, but on second thought, he remembered that after the stone was cut open, he still needed to find someone to buy it.

Otherwise, no matter how much it was worth, it would be meaningless if it could not be converted into cash.

Thinking of this, Lin Bai patiently smiled and replied, “I’m not going anywhere. I’m just finding a random master here to cut it open and have a look.”

The jadeite merchant who was chatting with him understood that Lin Bai did not have the ability to cut and process jadeite by himself.

Thus, he became even more at ease and took the initiative to introduce himself.

“I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Xiang Zhiyuan. I’ve been in the jadeite industry for twenty years..?I don’t dare to speak for anything else, but I think I have very good taste.?If you don’t mind, why don’t you let me give you some advice?”
