Sweet Nostalgia of the 80s-Chapter 1336: Decided to Take Action

Qin Jian had a rare day off today, and as soon as he opened his eyes, he saw An Hao scrutinizing the bracelet over and over, lost in her thoughts.

"What’s the matter? You’re up early?" Qin Jian rolled over and sat up.

"Yes. I’m still considering selling the bracelet. If Baozhen Jade Store is empty again today, I’ll have to let it go," she said, her patience waning.

Seeing An Hao’s unrest over these past few days, Qin Jian decided to accompany her on this trip.

They needed to resolve the financial issue, no matter what.

"Stop worrying. Let’s go have another look today. If that doesn’t work out, we can leave our contact details with them. If the store owner returns, she can get in touch with you," he suggested.

"Okay. Sure," An Hao agreed.

After breakfast, Qin Jian accompanied An Hao to sell the bracelet.

They took a car to the well-established Jade Store. An Hao hesitated on the ride but ultimately decided to get off and ask for a price quote.

To find out how much the bracelet could really sell for.

Qin Jian got out of the car first, carefully assisting her down, and as he looked toward the Jade Store, his gaze inadvertently brushed past a sneaky, lurking figure.

He narrowed his eyes, about to investigate further when the figure disappeared.

Lin Mansion.

Lin Qiushu was looking at old photographs with the elderly lady when a man entered upon knocking on the door.

"Today, she took the jade bracelet to another well-known Jade Store. She’s probably going to sell it," he reported.

The elderly lady slammed her hands on the table, removing her reading glasses, "Let’s go, Qiushu! The bracelet must not fall into stranger’s hands!"

"I understand, Grandma," Qiushu replied, helping the elderly lady up and saying to the man, "Bring the car around."

..................

The store was deserted that morning, even though it was the weekend, there weren’t many people buying jade.

As soon as An Hao walked in, the store owner’s eyes lit up, "I was wondering why a magpie was chirping at me this morning, turns out it heralded the arrival of an esteemed guest."

Businesspeople are perceptive and articulate; even though he clearly felt like his fortune had come, he framed it in a way that flattered the customer.

"Boss, our previous deal didn’t go through. Should we continue our discussion?" An Hao said, waving the bracelet in front of the store owner.

His eyes turned green at the sight of the bracelet, and this time he didn’t suppress his merchant’s greedy nature, "Certainly. Let’s talk."

"Name your price!" An Hao didn’t want to engage in insincere pleasantries, she went straight to inquiring about the price.

"Although the bracelet is no ordinary item, but..." the store owner tried to find a reason to lower the price, but An Hao didn’t fall for it.

"I don’t want to hear anything else. I’m only concerned about its price. Just tell me the figure," An Hao demanded.

"...Fifty thousand..." the other party said.

An Hao frowned, intuition telling her the bracelet was worth far more than fifty thousand, "Is this price fair, boss?"

"Of course," the store owner nodded.

"Well then. I think I’ll check with another store. As far as I know, yours isn’t the only Jade Store around," An Hao said, ready to leave with the bracelet.

"Wait, wait, wait! The price is negotiable!" Biting his lip, the store owner held up two fingers, "Add twenty thousand more! Seventy thousand in total."

An Hao shook her head.

"One hundred thousand!" the store owner’s voice broke, this was no small number, he truly wanted to acquire the jade bracelet.
