Chapter 79

Just like last time, it was Wei Decheng's female secretary who answered the phone. However, it was clear that Wei Decheng had already given instructions to his secretary, so when Jiang Ping stated his name, she immediately responded warmly, "Mr. Jiang, please wait a moment, I'll transfer the call to Mr. Wei right away."

Jiang Ping didn't have to wait long before Wei Decheng's cheerful voice came through the phone, "Mr. Jiang? Oh, you finally called! I've been waiting so long!"

From Wei Decheng's words, Jiang Ping could tell that he was indeed very interested in the Hainan yellowheart bracelet. He smiled and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Wei, for keeping you waiting. But as the old saying goes, 'Slow work produces fine results.' I believe you'll see that waiting a few more days was well worth it once you see the item."

Wei Decheng was overjoyed by Jiang Ping's words and quickly followed up, "When can I see the item? Can it be tomorrow?"

"Of course, no problem," Jiang Ping also wanted to get the money as soon as possible, so he readily agreed.

Thus, Wei Decheng and Jiang Ping agreed to meet at Wu Hanqing's shop the next morning. They had originally met through Wu Hanqing and were both familiar with Julongzhai, so it was indeed a good choice to meet there.

The next day, Jiang Ping arrived at Julongzhai on time. Wu Hanqing had clearly been informed by Wei Decheng, and he showed no surprise upon seeing Jiang Ping. He greeted him with a smile, "You're right on time, but Mr. Wei arrived even earlier and is already waiting in the back yard!"

Knowing that Wei Decheng had arrived earlier than himself, Jiang Ping was somewhat surprised and couldn't help but smile, "Mr. Wei is quite impatient."

"Indeed, he's always been a straightforward and generous person," Wu Hanqing led Jiang Ping to the back yard and whispered, "But although Mr. Wei is generous and willing to spend a lot on items he likes, he is, after all, a businessman and is very sensitive about prices. When you name your price, be sure to be cautious."

Jiang Ping understood that Wu Hanqing was reminding him not to overprice the item and risk ruining the deal. He sincerely thanked him, "Mr. Wu, thank you."

"Hehe, I'm glad you understand," Wu Hanqing was pleased that Jiang Ping had grasped his good intentions and quickened his pace to lead him into the back yard of Julongzhai.

The back yard of Julongzhai was not large but was elegantly arranged. Jiang Ping now realized that Wu Hanqing had such a nice place. A middle-aged man in his forties was sitting on a bamboo chair in the yard, who must be Wei Decheng.

Wei Decheng was tall and exuded a commanding presence. He was somewhat surprised when he first saw Jiang Ping, but quickly smiled and greeted him, "You must be Jiang Ping. Mr. Wu told me that you have a keen eye for items and are very young. I didn't quite believe it at first, but now I see that Mr. Wu didn't exaggerate at all, ha ha!"

Jiang Ping had already gotten used to people commenting on his youth over the past month, so he didn't react much. He simply smiled and said, "Mr. Wu was right about one thing: I am indeed young. As for my keen eye, that's too much praise."

"Indeed, not only young but also humble, very good, very good!" Wei Decheng praised Jiang Ping and then said with a smile, "Let's skip the pleasantries and take a look at the bracelet, what do you think, Xiao Jiang?"

Jiang Ping had no objections. He nodded and took out a velvet bag from his backpack, which contained the newly made Hainan yellowheart bracelet.

Both Wei Decheng and Wu Hanqing were experts. Even though the bracelet hadn't been taken out of the bag, they were both surprised by its outline.

As the buyer, Wei Decheng quickly asked Jiang Ping, "How big is this bracelet? 45 or 50?"

"Mr. Wei has a good eye," Jiang Ping smiled at Wei Decheng, "It's 50."

The 50 Jiang Ping mentioned referred to the diameter of each bead on the bracelet, which was 50 millimeters. Generally, a 20-millimeter diameter is considered large for a bracelet, and this Hainan yellowheart bracelet, with a diameter of 50 millimeters, was almost at the limit of what could be worn on the wrist. Such a large bracelet was extremely impressive and eye-catching.

Knowing the size of the bracelet, Wei Decheng couldn't help but say eagerly, "Good, good, let me see it quickly!"

Jiang Ping didn't keep him waiting and directly took out the bracelet and handed it to Wei Decheng.

"Wow!" Wei Decheng couldn't help but exclaim at the first sight of the bracelet. Wu Hanqing, who was more reserved, also showed a look of surprise.

Both were experts and immediately recognized that this bracelet, in terms of its patterns and oiliness, was even more outstanding than the two Hainan yellowheart bracelets Jiang Ping had previously sold to Julongzhai. Such high-quality Hainan yellowheart material was already very rare, and describing it as a rare treasure was entirely justified.

The extremely large size of the bracelet was another significant reason for its value. It was rare to see such a large bracelet on the market, and even Wu Hanqing had only received a 45-millimeter bracelet a few years ago. That bracelet was said to be a cherished possession of a major capitalist from the Republican era, but it had eventually been passed down and bought by Wu Hanqing. Even that bracelet couldn't compare to the one Jiang Ping had brought in terms of patterns and oiliness, and it was in a completely different league.

What surprised Wu Hanqing even more was that this bracelet was clearly newly made, which meant that Jiang Ping's elder must still have high-quality Hainan yellowheart material. This made Wu Hanqing look at Jiang Ping with even more respect, thinking that this young man must come from a very distinguished family, otherwise, how could his elder have so much high-quality Hainan yellowheart material?

Wei Decheng had similar thoughts but was more focused on the bracelet in his hand. The more he looked at it, the more he liked it, and he was determined to buy it. He smiled and asked Jiang Ping, "Xiao Jiang, I want this bracelet. Just name your price!"

However, Jiang Ping had no intention of naming a price. He smiled and said, "When I came, my elder said that both of you are older than me and have more experience. So, the value of this bracelet should be determined by your opinions."

Wei Decheng and Wu Hanqing were both taken aback by Jiang Ping's response. Wu Hanqing then smiled meaningfully, while Wei Decheng pointed at Jiang Ping and laughed, "You're an interesting young man, I like you!"
