Chapter 223 Chairman
"If you, beautiful, think that the bracelet we looked at earlier is too expensive, we also have jewelry here at a lower price point,"
the salesperson said.
Ye Ling had remained silent from the beginning. He had brought Su Rou to the Wujewel Jewelry Store not for the jewelry that anyone with money could buy but specifically for that treasure.
Su Rou shook her head, replying, "It's okay, you go ahead and do your work. We're just looking around."
"All right then..."
Hearing this, the salesperson nodded in agreement.
She had realized by now that Su Rou couldn't afford the jewelry here; she was likely just here for the excitement.
For such customers, naturally, she did not want to continue wasting her time.
"Let's go! We'll have a look at that treasure,"
Ye Ling said after the salesperson had walked away.
Su Rou nodded slightly and followed Ye Ling to the center of the jewelry store.
In the center of the store, a crowd had already gathered, discussing the item in the display case in the middle.
"Geez, one hundred and eleven diamonds—if you wear this necklace out, wouldn't it blind others with its shine?"
"Give it a rest! Do you even recognize the real value here? The necklace is secondary, did you see the colored diamond on that ring? That's what's truly valuable!"
"Exactly, I remember at an auction once, a colored diamond sold for a whopping four billion yuan, and it wasn't even as big as the one on this ring!"
...
The chatter of the crowd kept rising, piquing Su Rou's curiosity.
Seeing her like this, Ye Ling immediately shouted to the crowd, "Make some room, please!"
While saying this, Ye Ling pulled Su Rou with one hand and parted the people in front of him with the other, forcefully squeezing into the middle of the crowd.
When Su Rou saw the necklace and ring in the display case, a look of delight immediately appeared in her eyes.
Probably any woman seeing this necklace and ring would show such an expression.
"Wrap up this necklace and ring for me, I'll take them,"
Ye Ling said straightforwardly.
The woman standing by the display case froze for a moment, then hurriedly replied, "Sir, this set of jewelry is just on display at our branch and is not for sale."
Ye Ling took the black card, then said indifferently, "Rise." Enjoy exclusive chapters from My Virtual Library Empire
"Yes!"
Wu Dazhuang immediately complied, straightening his back.
As the manager of the Wuji Jewelry store, he didn't recognize the black card at first, but after making a call to a high-level executive at Wuji Group, he finally confirmed what the black card represented.
The only black card owned by the founder of Wuji Group!
The person possessing the black card is the Chairman of the entire Wuji Group, as well as the Group's big boss!
"Find us a quiet place to talk,"
Ye Ling said indifferently.
Wu Dazhuang immediately led Ye Ling and Su Rou away from the crowd, and didn't forget to say to the woman, "Pack up this set of jewelry for the Chairman."
"Yes, Mr. Wu!"
The woman quickly responded.
It wasn't until Ye Ling and his companions had walked away that the crowd slowly recovered from their shock.
"Wow, I thought that guy was just boasting, but it turns out he was the real deal!"
"The Chairman of Wuji Group, what a powerful status that must be! This Wuji Jewelry store looks like just one branch of Wuji Group's jewelry chain, right?"
"Good thing I didn't offend that person just now; with his status, crushing me would be as easy as crushing an ant!"
...
Many people showed a relieved expression, silently glad they hadn't offended Ye Ling and Su Rou with words or actions.
The saleswoman standing in the crowd also looked relieved, grateful that Ye Ling and Su Rou hadn't taken issue with her attitude earlier and caused her trouble.
Otherwise, not only would she be out of a job, but her personal safety might become a major issue as well.
Under Wu Dazhuang's guidance, Ye Ling and Su Rou quickly entered an office with him.
"Chairman, this is my office."
"Please have a seat, I'll go make some tea,"
Wu Dazhuang offered.
Ye Ling nodded slightly, then sat down with Su Rou on the sofa in the office's reception area, while Wu Dazhuang busied himself preparing tea and pouring water for the two of them.
