"Well, Brother Zhou, it's not impossible for you to want thirty, but you have to promise me one thing first."

An imperceptible smile appeared on the corner of Liu Yuhao's mouth, and he said slowly.

I don't know if Zhou Xi is blessed or what, anyway, after listening to Liu Yuhao's words, Zhou Xi was stunned for a long time, and then his bloated body suddenly jumped up, wiped his sweat weakly, took out the excess jade worm from his pocket and put it back on the plate, gritted his teeth and said: "Eighteen, deal!" ”

"You, you come back for me."

Liu Yuhao was stunned, he never thought that Zhou Xi would be so backbone today, and he was willing to spit out the jade worm in his hand, and when Liu Yuhao came back to his senses and wanted to call Zhou Xi, he found that he had run out of the door of the study.

"Fourth, the conditions are not to be discussed, and you don't want one more brother, you kid"

Zhou Xi waved his hand to answer while running wildly, but he didn't know whether he was walking too quickly or inattentively, and before he finished speaking, he ran out and fell to the ground with a few steps.

"Brother Zhou, are you okay?"

"Yo! It hurts me to death, don't hurry up and pull me up! ”

"What about me?"

"Ouch hey"

"Don't say yes? Well, I'm leaving. ”

"Fourth, even if you are ruthless, brother, I can't promise you!"

Helping the limping Zhou Xi back to the study, Liu Yuhao said with a cheap smile: "Actually, it's not a big deal, just let you help me tell Charlie, I hope to change the donation ceremony and diamond auction to five days later, when the two things will be held together." ”

"Ah, that's all there is to it?"

Zhou Xi rubbed his ass in pain, wanting to cry without tears and wailing.

"yes, you think." Liu Yuhao nodded.

Zhou Xi suddenly cried and laughed, full of grievances, the fall just now was really immortal, and his butt still hurt so much until now, but he didn't expect Liu Yuhao to help him do it so simply, "I knew it was so, I also ran wool." ”

Liu Yuhao shrugged his shoulders and said innocently: "You think I will do something big with you, I'm afraid you won't be able to do this." ”

"Then you didn't say it earlier, I still fell my brother, ouch"

Zhou Xi's head is full of black lines, his face is red and white, as if crying and laughing, and he is wonderful.

Liu Yuhao laughed and said, "You didn't ask me before, and when I wanted to say, you ran away in a hurry, can you blame me." ”

After a long time, Zhou Xi seemed to have made some decision, slapped the table fiercely, and gritted his teeth and said: "Then you have to give me thirty jade worms, and none of them can be missing." ”

"Done, deal!"

I don't know why, Liu Yuhao suddenly looked surprised, but he froze, and muttered softly: "Selfish, greedy for money, and lustful, you haven't been left behind." ”

Zhou Xi disagreed, pouted with a stiff neck, and said: "How can the benefits of your fourth child be taken for nothing, I can't agree before I figure it out, in case there is a pit in front of me, I will close my eyes and jump in?" ”

Liu Yuhao looked at Zhou Xi in surprise and said, "Don't you think it's a pit now?" ”

"Well, I can still meet your simple request, who made us brothers."

Zhou Xi didn't care about the pain in his buttocks, so he picked and chose from the left and right on the plate, and put the thirty jade insects with the best water species into his pocket before he smiled contentedly.

Liu Yuhao nodded, took the plate to a safe place, and then smiled, and said, "Brother Zhou, I forgot to tell you something just now." ”

"What's the matter?"

Zhou Xi was stunned, his eyes rolled, and a feeling of being deceived suddenly appeared in his heart.

Sure enough, Liu Yuhao smiled evilly, and quickly smiled: "Brother Zhou, in fact, if you hold on for a while just now, I am ready to give you fifty jade worms in exchange." ”

"Rely on this, this time it's a real loss!"

Zhou Xi was about to cry when he heard this, shouting that he was deceived, and secretly despised Liu Yuhao in his heart, "Is there such a trick as you?" What a hypocrisy! Leave everything to the end. ”

Chen Jiayun on the other end was covered with goosebumps by the spoof between the two brothers, shook his head with a wry smile, and retracted his mind to concentrate on his unfinished jade carving polishing work.

But if Chen Jiayun had seen Zhou Xi's vicious and ruthless appearance once, he was afraid that he would never have a dislike for that fat man with a smile on his face in his life

"Stinky boy, what are you going to do again?"

Finally sent Zhou Xi away, Liu Yuhao smiled bitterly and was about to turn around, but a voice that he didn't want to hear at the moment suddenly came from behind.

There is no need to look back at all, as long as you listen to the voice, Liu Yuhao already knows who the person who came.

"Old Man Kong, it's not authentic for you to do this."

Liu Yuhao waved his hand and rolled his eyes, and muttered unhappily.

Old Man Kong smiled, walked to Liu Yuhao's side with his hands behind his back, and said, "Why am I not authentic?" ”

"You eavesdropped on my conversation with my friend without my permission, it's not inauthentic, what else can it be."

Liu Yuhao pouted and said with a smile.

In fact, he also explained some inconsequential things to Zhou Xi, even if Old Man Kong heard the conversation between the two of them from beginning to end, he might not be able to guess what Liu Yuhao wanted to do, but the necessary attitude must be shown.

No one likes to have a pair of eyes behind them that don't belong to them.

Old Man Kong did misunderstand, shook his head with a smile, and persuaded bitterly: "It's not wrong that you want to use Charlie's identity to sell your jadeite, but if you sell the jade culture to those foreigners, I'm afraid you won't be able to take advantage of it in the end." ”

Chen Jiayun came over this time and brought a large number of jade jewelry to be officially launched to everyone on the day of the world's first diamond auction, this is a fact, Liu Yuhao is certainly not stupid to think that these arrangements on the surface can also hide from the eyes of Old Man Kong.

However, the real idea behind Liu Yuhao was that he couldn't tell Old Man Kong to know, he just needed to know that Old Man Kong didn't guess that he had other ulterior motives from the conversation between him and Zhou Xi.

Liu Yuhao said with a smile: "What the old man said is that diamond is the most beloved jewelry of Westerners, it is wealth and beauty in the eyes of Westerners, and it also expresses the feelings of eternal desire,"

"If you know, it's good."

Old Man Kong nodded slightly, which is also the main reason why he engaged in the diamond business after coming to this unfamiliar country and gave up the essence of oriental jade culture.

Liu Yuhao did not follow the meaning of Old Man Kong, but said to himself: "Jadeite is the most beloved jewelry of Oriental people, in the eyes of Oriental people, jadeite is wealth, beauty, and a mysterious power, which can make the wearer and owner avoid evil and seek good fortune." But I think that while the treasures of these two different cultures represent different meanings, there is not necessarily a lack of synergy between the two. ”

"Looks like you're very confident."

Old Man Kong glanced at Liu Yuhao, who was stubborn, shook his head helplessly, and said: "It is right for young people to have ideas, but before implementation, they must think about how to put themselves in an invincible position is the king." ”

"Thank you, old man, for reminding me."

Liu Yuhao bowed slightly, explained: "Diamond is the extreme of Western jewelry, the most expensive gemstone is diamond, but you also know that jade is the king of jade, the fusion point of Eastern and Western jewelry, it inherits the essence of thousands of years of oriental jade culture, can accommodate mountains and rivers in the square inch, at the same time it can also be processed into various shapes of ring like a gemstone, with precious metals and diamonds inlaid into modern jewelry." ”

Old Man Kong's eyes narrowed, and after thinking about it, he suddenly raised his head and said, "Go on." ”

Liu Yuhao nodded and smiled: "The diamond is hard and cold, and the jade is warm and soft; Westerners talk about principles, and Easterners talk about human feelings. The most beautiful thing about a diamond is its intense brilliance, and the extremely high refractive index gives the simplest white a colorful brilliance, just like the aggressive extroverted personality of Westerners. The most beautiful thing about jadeite is its warmth and softness and the green color of life, like the introverted and subtle character of the Oriental, if I use diamonds to set jadeite, or vice versa"

Talking to smart people is a very pleasant process, because there are things that you don't need to explain again and again, and the other person can quickly understand what you are trying to say.

It just so happens that Mr. Kong is a very smart person.

Diamond is a single mineral crystal, which cannot tolerate a little flaw, like Westerners who distinguish between right and wrong, everything is based on the principle of logic and philosophy, without the slightest ambiguity. Jadeite is composed of thousands of tiny minerals, and it is extremely inclusive, like the Oriental people, everything is based on moderation.

"You mean combining the two?"

Old Man Kong's eyes lit up suddenly, but then he shook his head speechlessly, and said, "Even now, there are many jewelry merchants who are trying to make the two more beautiful, but there are almost no successful ones." ”

The human ideological system is the recording, abstraction, and elevation of reality, which is formed and developed under specific social conditions. As a result, there are significant differences in the ideas formed in different social contexts.

The East focuses on conceptual connotation, while the West focuses on extension.

The same goes for the likes on jewelry.

Liu Yuhao smiled faintly and shouted in the direction of the study, "Brother Chen, please help take out some of the jewels you brought over." ”

Chen Jiayun only answered, and quickly walked out of the house with a silver-white metal suitcase.

Liu Yuhao took the suitcase and put it on a stone table, then opened the box, and said with a smile: "Old man, look at it yourself, if you think these are not good, then I can't help it." ”

"This kid, if you really have you, that's okay?"

Old Man Kong frowned, but when he saw the jewels in the box with strong colors and dazzling diamonds and jadeite, his eyes didn't blink, and the whole person was stunned.
