817 Lamenting his misfortune and being angry with him
"This thing is really beautiful, it can be described as noble and atmospheric!"
"Hehe, it's not just so simple to be beautiful, if I'm not mistaken, the material of this pendant should be the imperial green of the glass species, but it is the best in the jadeite, even in the place of origin, if you want to find this seed material, it is also an even more difficult thing. β
"Yes, this pendant is really amazing, not only the precious materials, but also from the carving that it is also from the hands of the master, you look at the birthday chart above, it is simply vivid like a real person!"
"This object, the estimated price is not low!"
After seeing the gift that Xie Qiang took out, the guests next to him, whether they understood or didn't understand, were all constantly complimenting, and even worse, they began to scream repeatedly, smacking their tongues, and a pair of eyeballs, as if they were going to stick to this birthday pendant carved from the best jadeite of glass imperial green.
The people who can be invited to the Xie family's birthday banquet are by no means short-sighted, and even so, they are all aware that this thing is by no means a vulgar thing.
Seeing the envious expressions of the surrounding guests, Xie Qiang smiled proudly, and then said: "Hehe, everyone guessed right, this is indeed carved with the precious glass imperial green level jadeite, and the carver of this thing is also a famous artist, it is the jade carving king of Yunnan, Mr. Lu Pingzhi Lu!"
"I heard that just some time ago, Mr. Lu once sold a jade pendant worth at least 40 million, or something customized, could it be this one?"
Someone in the crowd couldn't help but shout, and when they heard this, the guests exclaimed again.
"Yes, that's what everyone is talking about!"
Xie Qiang is still smiling proudly, he enjoys this feeling of the stars holding the moon and all eyes on him.
"Grandpa, I'll help you put it on, I heard that good jade raises people, grandpa, if you wear this birthday pendant given by my father, you will definitely have a long life!" Xie Tianyong seized the opportunity at this time, and immediately ran over to put on this jade pendant for Mrs. Xie.
I have to say that Xie Qiang's family and Xie Jin's family may not have good other skills, but this ability to slap horses is definitely not comparable to the Xie Jun family in any case.
Otherwise, how could the Xie Jun family be so untreated by the old lady Xie, even if the Xie Jun is the most capable one in the entire Xie family now, it is still the same, it has been suppressed, and even now it has no property at all, but the old lady Xie likes his other two sons and his precious grandchildren the most.
"Hehe, good grandson!" Since the previous struggle with the Jiang family was helped by nobles, after repeatedly inflated, the old lady Xie is now very happy, and he is very good in front of people, and now at his birthday banquet, the eldest son gave him a jade pendant worth tens of millions, he suddenly couldn't close his mouth with a smile, and said with joy: "Boss, you have a heart, I like your gift very much!"
After Xie Tianyong hung the pendant around his neck for the old lady, he couldn't put it down and kept stroking, his eyes narrowed with a smile, and the wrinkles on his face seemed to be stretched.
At this time, the second child of the Xie family couldn't wait to come forward, he couldn't let this kind of limelight be taken up by the boss Xie Qiang.
After clapping his hands eagerly, the two subordinates of the Xie family walked up carrying an object covered in yellow satin.
I saw that this thing was quite huge, half a person tall, and although the two subordinates of the Xie family were both young men in the prime of life, they were still pressed and panting.
With the jade pendant sent by Xie Qiang in front, everyone also opened their eyes, and when they saw such a huge gift, they all cast curious eyes, and they all guessed what kind of treasure this half-human-tall thing covered under this yellow cloth was.
Obviously, Xie Jin didn't want to sell anything at this juncture, on the contrary, his current mood was very urgent, and he wanted to show himself in front of Old Lady Xie immediately.
Therefore, when the people of the Xie family sent the things to Mrs. Xie, he immediately ordered them to go down.
I saw all the curtains in the banquet hall drawn by a few subordinates of the Xie family, obviously these were all rehearsed, and at the same time as the curtains were drawn, all the lights were also turned off, and in an instant, the entire hall became pitch black.
Just when everyone was puzzled and didn't know what kind of fame this was going to be, Xie Jin stepped forward and impatiently lifted the silk covering it, and suddenly, a fifty or sixty centimeter high snow-white stone appeared in front of everyone.
But the most amazing thing is that the stone glows green in the darkness, even a few feet away from it as if it were daylight.
After everyone's eyes slowly adapted to the environment in front of them, they began to slowly look at the stone in front of them, and when they looked closely, it turned out to be a lifelike statue of the Buddha.
"It looks amazing, what kind of material is this?"
"I don't know, although at first glance, it looks like ordinary white jade, but why does it emit this green light, this material, I haven't seen it before, even if I have heard it, I have never heard of it!"
"Could it be that this is the kind of material used in the legendary Night Pearl?"
"Isn't that just a legendary thing, this is a reality, wouldn't it have to be very precious?"
The guests looked at the statue of the Buddha in front of them and couldn't help but start talking.
Seeing this, Xie Jin's whole person floated up a little, and he stepped forward triumphantly, and said in a colorful explanation. Some time ago, there is a temple of the Sui Dynasty on Tianyun Mountain to be demolished, as a result when the temple Buddha gold body is moved, the snow-white Buddha light actually emerges under the pedestal, people dig a look, they found that under the Buddha's golden body, there is such a strange stone that will shine, the most peculiar thing is that the appearance and shape of the strange stone, it is very similar to the Buddha, many people think that this is the Buddha treasure left by the Buddha, has a strong Buddha nature, I know that father, you have always believed in Buddhism, so you spent money to buy this strange stone, and invited the most famous Buddha carving everyone, carved this strange stone Buddha statue for my father, I hope it can bless my father to live a long and safe life, and live for a long timeοΌβ
"I've heard about this too, I still saw it on the news, and it is said that less than a day after the strange stone appeared, it was bought for a high price of 20 million!"
"It seems that there is such a thing, and I have also read this news!"
"Yun Lao, you are an expert in playing with stones, tell me, what is the value of this statue of Buddha?"
"Hehe, according to my estimates, I'm afraid it's not much worse than the glass imperial green jade pendant, about 40 million!"
ββ¦β¦β
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but feel envious.
"The second child is also a good child, you also have a heart, this Buddha statue is really good, and I like it very much for my father!"
He sat there, staring intently at the Buddha statue in front of him, his eyes were bright, and the smile on his face was like a flower, and he couldn't close his mouth.
"Second brother, are you quite scheming?" Xie Qiang saw that although the value of the gift given by his second brother was similar to that of his own, it seemed that the meaning was much stronger than his own gift, and the expression on the face of the old lady Xie was more distracted than after seeing his gift, he quietly approached Xie Jin's side, and said softly, his eyes full of disbelief and provocation.
In fact, the relationship between the eldest and second eldest of the Xie family is far from being as harmonious as it seems on the surface, if it is said that when they are united, it is only when they are working together to deal with the Xie army, and they will invariably stand in the same trench, but at other times, the two of them will fight openly and secretly for their personal interests.
Xie Jin heard this, a touch of smugness suddenly appeared on his face, and he said with a smile, "Big brother, you don't have to patronize me, the two of us are each other, no matter how good or inferior!"
Suddenly, the two of them seemed to think of something at the same time, exchanged a look with each other, and at the same time looked at Xie Jun, who had been sitting quietly in the corner and seemed to have no quarrel with the world.
Xie Xiaoyu, who had been sitting next to Xie Jun and watching the two uncles out of the limelight, had strong opinions and Xie Jin rushed to give a grand gift to the old lady Xie, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and he sneered in his heart and whispered: " There are these losers here, even if there are ten Xie families here, it is difficult for me to think that they are not defeated, the Xie family has just improved a little, and in order to make a show at Grandpa's birthday banquet, they spent nearly 100 million to buy these flashy things, but they don't know that there are still many weak places in the Xie family now, and it is when you need to spend money everywhere, in order to grandstand, you are really willing to spend money!"
Xie Jun, who was sitting next to Xie Xiaoyu, heard Xie Xiaoyu's words and sighed, but he could only look at all this with a helpless face, lamenting his misfortune, and said angrily and resentfully, "The eldest brother and the second brother are so inflated? The clothing, food, housing and transportation of the two families, every penny has always been taken from the public funds of the Xie family, don't think about it, this time in order to please his father, the money spent must also be from the public funds of the Xie family, alas, Dad is really confused, use his own money to buy him gifts, he is still so happy." β
