Unlimited Black Cards! A Mysterious and Wealthy Young Lady!

As night fell, the courtyard of No. 1 Tan Palace still carried the coolness of the morning dew. Butler Jiang Bo had already walked lightly to the entrance of the living room. Seeing Jiang Wenxi looking through a jade catalog by the window, he slowed his pace and respectfully said, "Miss, tomorrow is the Jade Gathering. I've come to report to you on the upcoming schedule."

Jiang Wenxi looked up, her fingertips lightly tracing the jade pattern on the page, and said calmly, "Okay."

Uncle Jiang stepped forward and handed over a neatly printed itinerary, explaining item by item: "Tomorrow morning at nine o'clock, we will arrive at the Jade Association's exclusive hotel to check in. There are no official arrangements in the morning; it's mainly for all guests to freely stroll around Jingdezhen Ancient Town—it's a distribution center for raw jade materials and antique jade carvings. Many old merchants have good items hidden away, and people in the industry love to go there to hunt for treasures at this time, often finding unexpected bargains."

"The following day will be the core event of the jade fair – the jade gambling competition. A batch of high-quality raw stones transported from Myanmar and Yunnan will be on display. People can observe the characteristics of the raw stones, such as their skin, moss, and blemishes, up close. Then, they will compete through open bidding, and only the winners will be able to obtain the corresponding materials. There will also be a stone-cutting area on site, where people can witness the quality of the raw stones on the spot."

"After the jade gambling conference, the grand finale will be the jade auction. This auction is quite special, as it adopts a blind auction system. All items will have their key parts covered by a light shield, and only the basic weight and origin information will be marked. Bidding will be based entirely on the experience and eye of the participants, making it both interesting and challenging."

After listening, Jiang Wenxi closed the illustrated guide, a faint hint of interest flashing in her eyes.

She had looked into the jade fairs of previous years, and this was the first time she had ever seen one with such a rich and varied program. She thought to herself: I didn't expect a jade fair to have so many different activities; it's definitely worth going.

The next day

In the dining room of the Ma family villa, the steam from breakfast had not yet dissipated when Ma Zhenghong pulled Ma Yun, who had just taken a couple of bites of porridge, aside and gave her repeated instructions with a serious expression.

Ma Yun held chopsticks in one hand and rested her chin on the other, her face full of impatience, yet she dared not directly refute him.

"When you get to the jade fair, don't wander around like you usually do. You must be mindful of your behavior."

Ma Zhenghong wiped his hands with a tissue and said solemnly, "This trip isn't mainly for you to have fun. It's to help Miss Jiang keep an eye out for anything she might like. Also, see if there's anything suitable for our house. We're missing a landscape jade ornament; see if we have anything suitable this time. Do you understand?"

He paused, then added, "If you see anything that Miss Jiang likes, don't hesitate, just buy it. Don't worry about the money; call me anytime if you need more. Just don't be stingy in this kind of setting and tarnish the Ma family's manners, and don't neglect Miss Jiang."

"Alright, alright, I know!" Ma Yun finally couldn't help but interrupt her father, put down her chopsticks and stood up.

"Dad, you've been repeating the same few sentences over and over for almost ten minutes. My ears are about to fall off. I'm not a three-year-old; I know what to do. Don't worry about it, just relax."

After saying that, he grabbed his coat from the back of the chair and walked towards the door without waiting for Ma Zhenghong to speak again, leaving Ma Zhenghong shaking his head helplessly as he watched his retreating figure, muttering to himself, "This kid, I hope he can actually be reliable this time."

While Ma Zhenghong and his son were chatting, Jiang Wenxi had already set off with Jiang Nan, Jiang Wen, and Jiang Yan.

After all, leaving early can help you avoid peak hours, and getting stuck in traffic for a while can be incredibly frustrating.

The convoy smoothly drove into the hotel parking lot designated by the Jade Association. As soon as it stopped, the reception staff waiting at the hotel entrance immediately came to greet it.

The leader was a middle-aged man in a dark suit, wearing the Jade Society badge. He was respectful and well-mannered, and immediately recognized Jiang Wenxi. He quickly stepped forward, bowed, and greeted her: "You must be Miss Jiang Wenxi? Welcome to our Jade Society. Your hotel room has been arranged in advance. Here is your room key."

The man handed the gold-embossed room key to Jiang Wenxi with both hands. He glanced at the three men behind her, Jiang Nan, who were tall and alert, and knew they were her bodyguards. He didn't dare to be negligent in the slightest.

The reason why the Jade Society treated her with such solemnity was not only because of her status as the owner of No. 1 Tan Palace, but also because of Jiang Wenxi's recent display of strength in the Shanghai business district, which has made her a force to be reckoned with by those in the industry.

They wouldn't neglect Jiang Wenxi just because she's young. After all, she's the only person her family sent back to China; everyone else is just a subordinate.

It can be said that she has absolute decision-making power over all domestic affairs.

Jiang Wen calmly accepted the room key.

He then explained in detail, "You are free to arrange your time as you wish. If you are interested, you can visit the nearby Jingdezhen Ancient Town now. We have already contacted the key merchants in the ancient town in advance, and they will provide you with exclusive guided tours and discounts."

"Okay," Jiang Wenxi replied without saying anything more. The man tactfully stopped bothering her, turned to the side and gestured for the staff to follow, while he stepped aside to await further instructions.

The group followed the staff to their hotel room. Upon opening the door, they were greeted by a spacious, understated, and luxurious presidential suite.

The room is decorated in a modern Chinese style, with solid wood furniture paired with elegant ink paintings, exuding a high-quality feel; the floor-to-ceiling windows offer a panoramic view of Jingdezhen Ancient Town, with its blue bricks and gray tiles arranged in a pleasing manner, and distant green mountains faintly visible, providing an excellent view.

As soon as they entered the room, Jiang Nan and Jiang Wen immediately got to work, with a clear division of labor: Jiang Nan was responsible for checking the electrical equipment, fire-fighting facilities and ventilation system in the room to identify any potential safety hazards.

Jiang Wen then checked the door and window locks, curtain tracks, and hidden corners one by one to prevent the presence of hidden cameras or listening devices.

This is their duty as bodyguards; wherever they go, their primary task is to ensure Jiang Wenxi's safety.

Jiang Yan quickly walked to the tea table, skillfully boiled water and brewed tea, preparing warm tea for Jiang Wenxi.

Jiang Wenxi walked to the sofa and sat down. She had just picked up her teacup and taken a sip when her phone vibrated. It was a message from Fu Siya.

"Wenxi! You're so fast! You got to the hotel so early?"

The message was followed by a surprised emoji, and then another message came in: "We just got off the highway and are already at the hotel! Since it's such a coincidence, how about we go to Jingdezhen Ancient Town together later? If we go early, we might even find some treasures!"

Jiang Wenxi looked at the excited text on the screen, tapped her fingers lightly on the keyboard, and replied with a simple "Okay".
