Chapter 394 Not even worthy to carry my shoes! (Seeking monthly votes)

On the table was a cotton cushion, and on it lay a jade pendant, about a third the size of an adult's palm, with delicate cloud patterns that seemed to shimmer with a white glow.

At this moment, He Liansheng and his powerful uncles and other high-ranking officials, along with several hall masters, were gathered around a round table, carefully examining the exquisite jade pendant on the table.

"Exquisite, absolutely exquisite!"

Chuanbao put down the magnifying glass in his hand and exclaimed sincerely, "If I hadn't known what was going on beforehand, I would have thought this was a well-preserved antique jade pendant, and its price would definitely be quite high!"

"I think so!"

Longgen chuckled and said, "If it weren't for 500,000 Hong Kong dollars, I wouldn't even bother to listen to a single ear!"

"Five hundred thousand Hong Kong dollars?"

The man standing next to him couldn't help but laugh, "Even the jewelry in the gold shops isn't priced this outrageously!"

"You know shit!"

The dragon sneered, "Do you know where this thing comes from?"

"How would I know?"

Chuiji scoffed, "Isn't it just something you bought from the mainland?"

At this point, he said unhappily, "In my opinion, we shouldn't have made such generous concessions!"

"Good stuff obtained from the Russians can be brought directly to Hong Kong, and the profits will be at least ten times higher!"

"What, those fine furs and various gems still can't shut you up, huh?"

Longgen became even more disdainful, looking at Chuiji as if he were an idiot, his heart filled with a sense of intellectual superiority.

"What's your expression?"

Chuiji said unhappily, "Did I say something wrong?"

"You're right!"

Long sneered, "You should become the King of Arms, and then sell the firearms you get from the Russians all over the world!"

"At that time, all of us will have to fawn over your stinky chicken feet!"

"I had no such intentions, don't slander me!"

Chuiji was startled and subconsciously glanced at the unmoved Uncle Deng. Noticing nothing amiss, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said with dissatisfaction, "What I mean is, our people should be with the Russians, mainly to acquire furs and handicrafts such as gems!"

"That way, we can earn more!"

"Then go and do it yourself, Wu Sheng didn't plug the hole!"

Longgen sneered, "But when the time comes, whether the people you send out will be able to return unscathed, without protection from the mainland or guards from the Russian side, is another matter!"

"What? We put in so much effort against Lien Sheng!"

Chuiji slammed his fist on the table, complaining, "Are you unwilling to even give me this small convenience?"

"Give you a head, my foot!"

Long Gen chuckled and said, "Do you know how many people and organizations were mobilized in the mainland?"

"Trains, road transport, state-owned enterprises across the country, local township enterprises, and the military have all been mobilized!"

"Those directly in charge are all retired high-ranking officials. They don't even need to say a word if they want to get rid of you; a single glance from them can make you disappear from this world. I don't know where you get the guts?"

"you!"

He was so angry he was practically fuming, but he didn't know how to refute it.

The executives present, including Helian Sheng, all looked rather displeased, but none of them spoke. "What do you mean, 'you'?"

Longgen said irritably, "Didn't you see? Even the martial arts performer is just playing the role of a coordinator?"

"Although we started this project and provided the funding to get it running, at this point we no longer have the power or the right to interfere!"

These were all things Wu Feng taught him over the phone.

Otherwise, with Longgen's insight and knowledge, how could he have said these things?
Clearly, Uncle Deng knew this, otherwise he wouldn't have allowed Long Gen to lecture Chui Ji in the main hall like he was lecturing his grandson.

He naturally wanted to find out the specific attitude of the mainland side.

Longgen felt great. He never thought that he could silence Chuiji just by reasoning with him.

He enjoys bragging about chickens, seeing the frustrated look on their faces—the kind of anger that comes with not being able to vent it—it's just so satisfying.

Let me put it this way!

Longgen continued smugly, "Right now, border trade over there is already considered a major commodity transaction between countries!"

"Believe it or not, even if you arrived in Russia with a large quantity of goods, there wouldn't be anyone of sufficient influence willing to trade directly with you!"

"There was nothing we could do before because the situation was too dire, but now that the situation in the Far East has improved, doing this would be against the rules!"

“Our organization has its own rules. Do you think the Russians don’t have their own laws? How could that be?”

"Of course, if you're carrying a large amount of supplies and can safely reach Moscow, then disregard what I said!"

Chi Ji's face turned bright red, but he didn't know how to refute her.

"Well, we did our part too!"

Finally, he said this.

"Therefore, our people were able to obtain a considerable amount of valuable items such as furs and gems by leveraging the powerful influence of the Russians!"

"They can even supply diamonds in large quantities over there!"

"Can't you see how much profit is involved?"

He paused to catch his breath, pointed to the exquisite cloud-patterned jade pendant on the table, and sneered, "Do you know where this thing comes from?"

Before the chicken could even open its mouth, he continued, "Those were exquisite handicrafts meticulously carved from precious jade materials like Hetian jade, commissioned by the mainland in the 1960s and 70s to earn foreign exchange!"

"That was a gift presented to a foreign leader. The jewelry in the gold shops outside, in terms of craftsmanship alone, isn't even worthy of carrying this cloud-patterned jade pendant. How could the price be low?"

"It's just that wealthy foreigners don't understand or are not used to wearing jade jewelry, which is why we benefit from it!"

Longgen shook his head and chuckled, "Let me put it this way, this cloud-patterned jade pendant can be considered a family heirloom, just like those antiques!"

hiss……

Those present, including He Liansheng's powerful uncle and the hall masters, couldn't help but gasp upon hearing this.

The way he looked at the exquisite cloud-patterned jade pendant on the table was completely different now.

Just think about the so-called "treasures" in those jewelry stores, and you'll understand the true value of this exquisite cloud-patterned jade pendant on the table.

It's really good stuff!
All the eyes turned fiery.

Only Uncle Deng could remain calm, but Long Gen, with his sharp eyes, couldn't miss the small jade gourd, about the size of an adult's thumb, that Uncle Deng was playing with. He felt disgusted: This old guy's movements are faster than anyone else's!
Unfortunately, the item was already in Uncle Deng's hands, making it difficult to get it again, and Longgen felt quite regretful.

Wait a minute, I'm going to get a couple of nice things to take back with me.
