Heart shocked beyond measure, the sisters Louisiana's emotions were directly and thoroughly expressed on their faces, especially when they saw that Trupay had not even used to negotiate the price before directly ordering people to carry the jadeite to the car, they were even more taken aback.
The of them were surprised to see that the price was between $45 million and $50 million, which was a difference of $5 million.
Not only were the sisters Louisiana stunned, even some of the merchants next to them, as well as the disoriented Billy, were equally astonished, at what price this piece of superb jadeite was sold, many people were incomparably curious.
Trupay drove a Mercedes SUV today, a cardboard box with foam padding provided by the organizer of the fair, containing the jadeite was placed in the car, only then did Trupay come in style, took out a cheque book from the bag she carried, wrote a number and handed it to Wendell.
"What?!"
When Wendell saw the number on the cheque, he immediately frowned. The others were instantly curious, did it mean that Trupay didn't keep her promise and gave a lower price? If that was the case, one could consider paying a higher price to buy the jadeite over. In normal business activities, bidding is allowed after all. It cannot be said that Trupay's Bell Milla Jewellery Company does not allow other companies to compete because of its strong background.
On the premise of equal prices, other companies were not willing to compete with Bell Milla Jewellery Company, but if it was Trupay who deliberately lowered the price and wanted to bully Wendell, they naturally wanted to follow suit to get a share of the pie.
However, Wendell's next words dashed the slightest hope that had just risen in everyone's hearts.
Only to see Wendell frowning, looking at Trupay, shaking his head and saying, "Chief Elam, this is a bit wrong, isn't it? Just now Uncle Relo said that the jade should be around forty-five million, and we all agreed on that price. After deducting the one million or so you lent me before, you actually only need to give me forty-three million. However, you gave me $50 million instead. This is deliberately letting me take advantage of it. It's a bit bad for you to do that, isn't it?"
When the other merchants heard this, they felt the urge to vomit blood. How could there be such a person who didn't want to give you more money?
Wendell, on the other hand, was very insistent that no matter what the friendship was, the price was something that could not be fooled around with. He knew very well that if Trupay hadn't lent him the million dollars, he would never have been able to buy this piece of rough stone immediately.
Of course, at that time he already had more than one million seven hundred thousand in his hand, and with the ability of his penetrating eye, although he could continue to buy other Narl stones and make a solid profit, he would always be able to raise the three million. Yet there was one thing that could not be disregarded, and that was, in the process of him buying other rough stones and raising the money, would this rough stone, which contained a superb jadeite, be bought by someone else?
Although it might be a bit of a coincidence to say so, this is what is called luck, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it might also be just a matter of time before or after that someone might buy this piece of rough stone.
You know, there are just too many rich people who come to this fair.
There is a jingle in Granola that illustrates just how many rich people there really are in Granola. The saying goes like this: There are as many big money as dogs, and the rich are walking all over the place!
Therefore, considering all these factors, Wendell decided on the price of forty-five million that Uncle Relo had said. He did not expect Trupay to give it at the price of fifty million, and he did not even use the million or so that he had borrowed to count, which made Wendell a bit dissatisfied.
If Wendell accepted this price, he would feel that he owed Trupay a favor.
It's great to pay back money, but it's not so great to pay back a favor.
Seeing Wendell's dissatisfied expression, Trupay's heart stuttered and she immediately knew that she had underestimated this young man. Although Trupay had already thought highly of Wendell in her heart, she now realised that she had far underestimated him.
A young man who could be unfazed in the face of millions definitely deserved the highest rating she could give him.
Originally, Trupay had given a few more millions because, on the one hand, she wanted to thank Wendell for selling her the jadeite, which had eased the company's tight supply of greats. On the other hand, she did want to make Wendell owe herself a favour.
Not for anything else, just because of Wendell's great luck.
1 should know that in the business of gambling stones, both eyesight and experience were far less important than luck. A person with great luck is enough for everyone to become befriended.
Trupay was likewise using a businessman's mindset to measure Wendell, and she thought that since Wendell had tasted the sweetness, he would definitely participate in stone gambling again in the future. As long as she had a great relationship with Wendell, she would be able to buy his jadeite on a priority basis when the time came.
But now, it seemed that Wendell was definitely not the kind of person who could be easily moved in the face of a few million.
Trupay decisively changed her strategy of interaction in her mind, but she did not rush to show it, otherwise it would deepen Wendell's misunderstanding even more.
So Trupay just smiled sweetly: "Mr. Silva, just now Uncle Relo said that the price of the jadeite was between forty-five million and fifty million, that was without considering the value after engraving, besides, having such a piece of jadeite would be enough to ease the company's tight supply of greats, so I think that fifty million is a very reasonable price."
Wendell shook his head and said, "Mr. Elam, there is no need to say more, let's stick to the price of forty-five million, and by the way, there is also the one million three hundred thousand that I borrowed, which should also be deducted from it."
Seeing Wendell's firm look, Trupay immediately nodded her head slightly and smiled sweetly, "Since Mr. Silva insists, then I will take advantage for once."
"It's only me who takes advantage of it!" Only then did Wendell reveal a smile.
Trupay then took the cheque and tore it up, reissued a cheque for forty-4 million, and smiled, "Mr. Silva, this time you can't refuse again!"
Wendell looked at it and didn't count it too much.
"By the way, Mr. Elam, you can just call me Wendell, the title Mr. Silva sounds awkward to me!" After the deal was done, Wendell was naturally in a great mreat, in fact, no matter who else it was, suddenly turning from a kid from a kid to a rich man with more than half a billion dollars all of a sudden, he would be in a great mreat.
Trupay was naturally happy to have a great relationship with Wendell, she smiled and nodded, "Then you shouldn't call me General Manager Elam, if you don't mind, just call me Sister Elam."
Wendell nodded slightly and smiled, "Sister Elam."
Trupay immediately had a strange feeling in her heart; Wendell's eyes were clear and bland, and his body also had an inexplicable aura that made people feel very at ease when they streat next to him.
The more she came into contact with Wendell, the more Trupay felt an inexplicable sense of closeness.
Pemoreover, Wendell had a steadiness that people of his age did not have, which made Trupay a little curious. It was said that at his age, all should be hot-blreated, what exactly had this young man experienced to become so calm and steady?
"I feel happy to have you as a brother, Wendell, let's have lunch together at noon." Trupay extended an invitation.
Wendell looked at the time, it was already after eleven o'clock, he shook his head and laughed, "Forget it this time."
Having earned over forty million in one morning, Wendell was already satisfied, he didn't want to make himself look too solid, it wouldn't be great to draw attention to himself.
However, Trupay was not happy, her face sank and she snapped, "What, sister invited you to dinner and you still don't give face?"
Seeing Trupay's appearance, Wendell could only smile and nod, "Alright, sister invited, how dare I not give face!"
"That's more like it!" Only then did Trupay turn angry to happy.
Suddenly having an extra sister, Wendell felt strange in his heart, but happy. He couldn't help but think that perhaps, having a sister was also quite great.
There were 4 people in the group, and a Mercedes SUV was just right for them to sit down. Old White was still acting as the driver, but in Wendell's opinion, apart from being a driver, Old White should also be a bodyguard.
Sitting on the leather seats inside the Mercedes, Wendell looked around. There was no doubt that this was a luxury car. The leather seats, the car TV, the remote phone, what made Wendell feel rare especially, were the countless dense small holes on the seats, the slightest cold air emanated from the small holes, making his whole body cool.
Pemoreover, when Wendell sat in the car, if he didn't look out, he could hardly feel the car moving, and even when he was turning, he didn't feel anything, the name of zero centrifugal force is really not a cover.
Wendell couldn't help but secretly sigh, this kind of famous car, he used to only be able to fantasize about it when discussing it with others, but never thought that now he was really sitting in it.
"What a great car, the car the big boss is in, it's just different!" Wendell said with an envious smile on his face.
When Trupay heard that Wendell was flirting with her, she immediately gave him a white look and snapped, "You, that cheque I gave you, I don't know how many cars you can buy, you're a big boss too!"
"Oh……" Wendell shook his head and laughed.
What Trupay took Wendell to, was a leisure club called Spring River Flower Pemoon Night, the name was very tacky. However, as soon as he walked in, Wendell felt that the interior was exquisitely decorated and in a cla_sical style. If he did not see the interior ceiling fitted with chandeliers and the like, he almost citrus himself into an ancient tavern.
The atmosphere in the clubhouse is very great, quiet and elegant, and you feel very relaxed when you walk in.
Wendell nodded secretly, this clubhouse was indeed well decorated, especially in this hot season, it was nice to have such a relaxing place.
"Whatever you want to eat, feel free to order!" Several people were led by the waiter to a private room, and when several people sat down in turn, Trupay handed the menu to Wendell.
"I'm not polite then!" Wendell laughed and had just opened the menu when he heard a mid-toned, loud laugh from outside the box, "Bell- is here? Why didn't you inform me when you came here?!"
Immediately afterwards, Wendell saw that Trupay's brow was slightly frowned.
To be continued....
