Chapter 737: Blind to see Mount Tai
Uncle Xu thought the matter was over.
Unexpectedly, a year later, Lao Wang actually took the initiative to ask him about this matter and asked him if he had waited for that young lady?
He was surprised.
But I also thought it was just a gesture of goodwill from the other party.
……
He knew that the other party had taken a fancy to a jade bracelet sold by Xu’s Jewelry.
However, that bracelet is the treasure of a branch of Xu’s Jewelry.
Since it is the treasure of the store, it should not be for sale.
……
Knowing this, Boss Wang has done his homework.
Not only is the price considerable, but the attitude is also full of sincerity.
He wanted to buy this bracelet as a birthday gift for his old lady, so naturally he would not be careless at all.
……
However, as a long-established leading enterprise in the industry, Xu’s Jewelry Store has a profound foundation and certainly does not lack this little money.
Moreover, with excessive mining by people, good quality jade is hard to find nowadays.
……
The name of Xu’s Jewelry cannot be lost.
The treasures of each branch are all objects carved from top-quality jade carefully selected by Xu’s Jewelry.
It represents the face of Xu’s Jewelry.
If there is no substitute, Xu’s Jewelry generally will not sell these store-significant jades.
……
Boss Wang believes that everything depends on human effort.
He had deliberately established a good relationship with Xu Qingzhu before.
Moreover, compared with Xu Qingzhu's elder brother Xu Qingsong, the current head of Xu Jewelry, Xu Qingzhu is obviously much easier to talk to.
In particular, Xu Qingzhu had opened his heart to him.
He didn't believe that before, but after he met Master Xiao, he believed it.
……
He immediately recommended Master Xiao to Xu Qingzhu.
But people simply don't believe it and won't even try.
In the end, Boss Wang had no choice but to give up the jade bracelet and picked out another one of inferior quality from Xu’s Jewelry shop.
……
"Lao Wang complained to me for a long time last night."
"Wouldn't it be better if I had believed him earlier?"
"This way he has the bracelet, and my problem is solved."
Uncle Xu recalled the phone call he hung up yesterday, and his face looked a little amused.
He really couldn't stand the nagging of a grown man.
……
Actually, it’s not his fault.
For a period of time, he frantically looked for all kinds of experts.
It was after listening to what his grandmother said to him.
……
What monster? What fate has ended?
He didn't believe it, and didn't want to believe it.
But he had no other choice at the time. Even if there was only a slight possibility, even if it seemed ridiculous, he wanted to grasp it.
……
However, most of the people he found were just guys with a reputation for nothing.
He gradually felt that in today's society, apart from those charlatans who were selling dog meat under the guise of selling mutton, where could there be any masters?
……
Having been deceived so many times, he no longer believes in so-called masters.
……
Therefore, he naturally rejected the Master Xiao recommended by Lao Wang.
His blunt and sharp words were totally inconsistent with his usual gentle style.
He didn't give the other party any chance to convince him.
Because, at that time, he had reached the point where he would instinctively feel disgusted when he heard the word "expert".
What kind of experts are they? They are all liars!
……
"Where is there no expert?"
"It's just that I don't know the real thing."
Uncle Xu laughed at himself and said, "If it weren't for Zizhen, I would have missed Master Xiao."
Then, his regret may really accompany him throughout his life.
……
"hey-hey."
Xu Zizhen spoke modestly, but his smile was a little proud, "It was just a coincidence."
……
"hey-hey."
Zhuge Yun suddenly laughed twice, "I also made great contributions."
……
"What's wrong with you?"
Zhang Bo rolled his eyes at Zhuge Yun unceremoniously. …
"No, my second brother did make a contribution."
Zhao Luzheng said very fairly.
……
"Yes, indeed."
Xu Zizhen nodded. "If it weren't for Zhuge Yun, I wouldn't have approached you guys, and how could I have asked Master Xiao for help?"
……
Zhuge Yun glanced at Zhang Bo with a smug look on his face.
Zhang Bo: …
……
"hehe."
Uncle Xu laughed and said, "Thank you, you are all my great benefactors."
"If you need any help in the future and you're embarrassed to ask me, you can ask Zizhen to pass the message to me."
"You are welcome."
……
Zhang Bo and others responded with a smile.
But I didn't take it too seriously.
After all, when it came down to it, they really didn't help anyone at all.
The only one they are interested in is the third brother.
They still have this self-awareness.
……
"Dong dong~"
The waiter came to serve the food.
Soon the table was filled with dishes.
The waiter closed the door and left.
"Master Xiao, Zizhen, and classmates, let's eat first."
Uncle Xu stopped talking about the previous topic. Since he was the host, there was no reason for him to let the guests go hungry.
For a moment, the only sound in the box was the clattering of cups, plates, and bowls.
Uncle Xu spoke again only after seeing Xiao Xiao put down his chopsticks.
"Master Xiao, is she really a monster?"
Uncle Xu moved his lips a few times and finally asked a question.
Before coming, he had a lot of questions in his mind that he couldn't wait to ask Master Xiao.
Before Master Xiao and his group arrived, he was still thinking about the questions he wanted to ask.
Now he could ask, but found that he didn't know what to ask first.
However, he soon found his own idea.
Xiao Xiao looked at Uncle Xu and nodded in his slightly nervous gaze, "Yes."
"What kind of monster is she?"
"Ling Feng."
"what?"
"Also called Fengzi ghost."
“Its essence is that maple tree.”
"Tree demon?"
Uncle Xu's face showed a look of realization, "No wonder."
No wonder he always saw her under that maple tree.
No wonder she never left that maple tree.
No wonder we saw the maple leaves changing color yesterday.
So she is the maple tree?
"Ah, Grandpa's maple tree has become a spirit?!"
Xu Zizhen exclaimed, with a very expressive look on his face.
"You could say the same thing."
Xiao Xiao looked at Xu Zizhen and confirmed what he said.
"awesome!"
Xu Zizhen muttered to himself.
Uncle Xu was also surprised, but not as shocked as his nephew.
Because, in fact, he had wondered in the past whether she was a tree demon?
After knowing that she might be a monster.
It's not hard to guess.
After all, she always stayed with Maple.
Perhaps he was mentally prepared. After getting confirmation from Master Xiao, he was not only surprised, but also felt that it was as he expected.
After asking the question, Uncle Xu's mind became clear.
He couldn't wait to ask the next question, which was also the question he cared about most.
"Master Xiao, why didn't I see her later?"
