C41 A Pearl Worth Ten Million
C41 A Pearl Worth Ten Million
"Don't reject me yet. The questions I want to ask are very simple. It's the pearl I sold to you. Who did you sell it to?" Zhou Yang sat on the chair and continued to speak to Zhang Xian indifferently. " You... You tried to harm me over and over again, but I kept you alive "
Zhang Xian's breathing was rapid. It could be seen that he was thinking about something very complicated in his heart.
Zhang Xian had never dreamt that he would still have some use for Zhou Yang. The reason why he said that just now was because he wanted Zhou Yang to increase the stakes.
Zhou Yang had come to ask him about the pearl late in the night. This matter must be very important to Zhou Yang, so Zhang Xian was thinking about how to make a deal with Zhou Yang.
"Alright, I can tell you honestly who the pearl was sold to, but I have a condition. If you don't agree, I will pretend that I have never seen you before. Even if I die, I will not tell you."
Zhang Xian sneered and opened his eyes. His eyes were filled with excitement. He continued to speak to Zhou Yang, "Don't think that you can find out about it in the account books of Zhang family. Except for me. No one knows."
Zhou Yang nodded his head. This was more like it. If Zhang Xian told him everything without any request, Zhou Yang would have to carefully consider the authenticity of his words.
After all, Zhang Xian was a treacherous and cunning person. He had lied to Zhou Yang more than once.
Since he could make a request, he would definitely not use false information to exchange for the conditions. Otherwise, if Zhou Yang found out about it, he would definitely have to bear the consequences.
"Tell me, what condition is it?" Zhou Yang nodded, his face calm, "As long as it's something I can do, I can make any request."
Zhang Xian grinned and licked his cracked lips. He slowly said to Zhou Yang, "My request is not too much. Let Lee Donglai reduce my sentence for me. I cannot stay here any longer. I am going crazy!"
Zhou Yang had already expected what Zhang Xian would say. Although this matter was a little difficult, Lee Donglai should be able to do it.
"Okay, tell me then." Zhou Yang smiled. "You can rest assured. I am different from you. As long as I make a promise personally, I will find a way to fulfill it for you."
Zhang Xian nodded his head. His face showed that he had gotten what he wanted. He paused for a moment, then continued, "When I took your pearl, I thought it was just an ordinary Yang Green Jade Pearl. I plan to sell it for 1.6 million..."
Hearing this, Zhou Yang's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that Zhang Xian had discovered the secret of the Yang Green Jade Pearl?
Zhou Yang was not in a hurry, nor did he reveal any other emotions. He continued to listen quietly.
"But when I sent someone to contact the buyer, a man in black suddenly found me and was willing to buy it for 50 million!"
A trace of pity flashed across Zhang Xian's eyes. He did not wait for Zhou Yang to speak. I spent 1 million to get it from you, but I can earn more than 50 million by selling it! Of course, I sold it to him without even thinking about it."
Although Zhou Yang felt that Zhang Xian was detestable in his heart, he couldn't care less about the profits of the Yang Green Jade Pearl. He hurriedly asked, "Do you know who that man in black is? Where does he live? What's his name? Why does he want to buy Yang Green Jade Pearl?"
Zhang Xian shook his head and said," I don't know who he is... "
Zhou Yang immediately became angry. Weren't you deceiving me again?
He was just about to get angry when he heard Zhang Xian say, "Don't be anxious. Listen to me."
Zhou Yang calmed down and stared at Zhang Xian without saying a word. If you can't say anything today, even a Divine Immortal wouldn't be able to save you!
"That man is covered in a mask, as if he doesn't want me to know his identity. When he took the pearl, I remember that he said something."
Zhang Xian paused for a moment and frowned, as if he was recalling the scene at that time. After a while, Zhang Xian continued, "I remember now. He seemed to have said something. There really was such a treasure. The rumors are true... "
Zhou Yang's heart skipped a beat. He believed that his judgment was correct. The guy who bought Zhang Xian's Yang Green Jade Pearl must know some things about Immortal Cultivation. Otherwise, he wouldn't have bought a gemstone at such a high price. This had completely exceeded its value.
If it wasn't used for cultivation, then this Yang Green Jade Pearl was merely a precious stone with some value. It definitely wouldn't be able to sell for more than 50 million!
"Although I don't know who he is, I know. There is definitely someone who knows where he comes from." Zhang Xian spread his hands and said to Zhou Yang, "Actually, I am also quite curious why he bought my pearl at such a high price. But in business, I will not investigate his identity. In order to avoid getting into trouble, I have always wanted you to buy the Yang Green Jade Pearl. It was also that person's order. "
Zhou Yang sneered in his heart. Zhang Xian thought that he was being righteous, but in the end, he was still a despicable person.
"Who knows his identity?" Zhou Yang knocked on the table and asked Zhang Xian to finish his sentence in one go.
"That's right..." Zhang Xian smiled and said to Zhou Yang, "The owner of the antique store that you and I met for the first time."
Zhou Yang nodded. It seemed that Zhang Xian really did not know anything else. Reducing his sentence for him was a very troublesome matter. Since he had proposed a condition, he definitely would not hide it.
"Don't worry. I will think of a way to fulfill your condition." Zhou Yang nodded and walked out of the house expressionlessly.
Lee Donglai was waiting at the door. When he saw Zhou Yang coming out, he asked in a low voice, "Mr Zhou, have you finished your task?"
Seeing Zhou Yang nod, Lee Donglai waved his hand and signaled the others to bring Zhang Xian back.
In the car, Zhou Yang closed his eyes and rubbed his temples gently. He wanted to understand the relationship between them. Was the manager of an antique store so well-connected?
After thinking for a while, he had no idea what to do. Zhou Yang could only go to the antique store to check it out personally tomorrow.
"Brother Li, this is very important to me. In order to get information from Zhang Xian, I had to agree to it and help him..."
Zhou Yang paused for a moment and did not say it out loud. After all, he had been troubling Lee Donglai and he felt a little embarrassed.
"Ha, Mr Zhou, you don't have to say much. Zhang Xian has been in contact with me for so many years. I know what he wants to say when he opens his mouth. But, there won't be any consequences for this, right?"
Lee Donglai hesitated for a moment and continued to speak to Zhou Yang.
"That's fine. With me around, Zhang Xian won't be able to do anything." Zhou Yang said with a smile.
"That's good. Mr Zhou is now the number one expert in Donghua. With you here, there's no need for us to be afraid of anything in Lee family."
With just a few words, Lee Donglai had tied Zhou Yang to the war chariot of Lee family. No wonder he was the young master of a big family in Donghua, unlike Zhang Xian, who was always a loser.
