Chapter 88: Did he pay the silver?
Seeing that the servant was quite fierce, Gu Yu immediately nodded with satisfaction.
He was never a kind person. Sometimes he was just too lazy to bother, but he wouldn’t let others step all over him.
Just like this Wang Cang, he directly spoke of retribution, and now he was experiencing firsthand what it was like for retribution to come.
It would probably be a painful feeling…
“Find me after you’re done beating him. I’ll go see the jade first.”
Afterwards, Gu Yu didn’t stay here long. After speaking, he immediately turned his gaze to the shop assistant. When the other party reacted, he quickly led Gu Yu to the second floor.
Seeing how formidable Gu Yu was, striking Lord Wang without hesitation… the shop assistant was extremely fortunate, thinking that he was glad he hadn’t been disrespectful to Gu Yu just now.
Previously, when he heard that Gu Yu only wanted casual jade, the shop assistant thought another stingy master had arrived.
But now, even if Gu Yu was stingy, he wouldn’t dare to lead him to the first floor to choose mediocre jade!
If he made him unhappy, he could even be beaten to death!
Just like the servant beating Wang Cang…
No, he had to quickly tell the shopkeeper later to come and host him personally!
“Sir, here are all the top-quality jades from Diecui Tower. Look at the luster and color, and then…”
Gu Yu didn’t have many requirements for jade. Having seen piles of top-quality jade in his space, these so-called “top-quality” jades were incomparable.
After all, it was just for practice, so Gu Yu didn’t ask for too much. After looking at the numerous jades on the second floor, he waved his hand, and bought them all.
With so much jade to practice with, he really didn’t believe he couldn’t learn carving!
“Sir, sir, you really want to buy all the jades?”
Just as the shop assistant was still rambling on, he suddenly heard Gu Yu say he wanted them all. He immediately trembled with fright, not expecting Gu Yu to be so extravagant!
Every piece of jade on the second floor was extremely expensive. If he bought them all… just thinking about it made the shop assistant feel like he was going to faint.
However, remembering how he had just used the imperial bestowed gold bars to beat someone with a cold expression, the shop assistant suddenly wondered if Gu Yu would run off without paying and buy them at a lower price???
“Yes, how much silver in total? After paying, you can send these things to the Gu Residence.”
“Sir, please wait a moment. I’ll go call the shopkeeper… I can’t handle such a big deal.”
“Alright, hurry up and call him.”
Then, hearing what the shop assistant said, Gu Yu didn’t say much. He just waved his hand, telling the shop assistant to hurry up and call the shopkeeper.
He was still thinking of giving the shop assistant more commission, but it seemed that the person was not destined to receive it!
“Son-in-law, I’m back!”
“Yes, from today onwards, you will serve by my side!”
While Gu Yu was waiting for the shopkeeper to arrive, the servant who had been beating people had already finished his ‘battle’ and returned to Gu Yu’s side with a happy expression. Then, he repeatedly wiped the blood-stained gold bars with his clothes before handing them over.
Gu Yu didn’t say much. Although he didn’t want this blood-stained gold bar, because it was an imperial bestowal, he couldn’t casually discard or transfer it, otherwise, people would use it as a crime and attack him fiercely.
To prevent this, Gu Yu cut off the source of the potential trouble.
Besides, although this gold bar couldn’t be spent, it was very valuable…
“Sir, I am the shopkeeper of Diecui Tower. I heard you want to buy all the jades on the second floor?”
After the shopkeeper rushed over, he saw Gu Yu relaxing, and his heart immediately felt bitter. He thought that the big deals today were coming one after another, and he didn’t know if Diecui Tower was lucky or too unlucky.
Although Gu Yu wanted to buy all the jades from Diecui Tower, unfortunately, someone had already beaten him to it.
Therefore, the shopkeeper could only look at Gu Yu cautiously, thinking if he could persuade him to buy next time.
He couldn’t afford to offend the master who had reserved them in advance!
“Yes, tell me the price, I’m not short of money.”
“This… to be honest, many of the jades have already been reserved by someone today. They are just waiting to pay the silver and take these jades away… Sir, you can wait for the next batch of jades to arrive. Our shop will definitely purchase better jades for you.”
“Reserved by someone else?”
When Gu Yu heard the shopkeeper’s words, his eyebrows couldn’t help but rise. He thought it was quite a coincidence that someone else had bought the jades before him!
However, seeing the shopkeeper’s timid appearance, it was clear that he wasn’t lying.
In that case, it would be a bit difficult!
Although it was still possible to choose the jades on the first floor for practice, why should he step back and fulfill others!
“Yes, it’s Master Wu Dao from the Wu family. He is preparing to purchase a number of jades to carve into finished products as this year’s…”
“Alright, I didn’t ask who bought them. What I’m asking now is, did he pay the silver?”
“This… not yet. He said he would deliver it tomorrow…”
“Yes, since they have already been reserved by someone else, your Diecui Tower should have removed the reserved jades, instead of telling me they were already reserved after I asked… Now, as long as the jades are displayed on the second floor, I consider them to be still on sale, so I bought them.”
Ignoring the shopkeeper’s hesitant words, Gu Yu took out a stack of silver notes from his arms. After flashing the huge amount of silver notes in front of the shopkeeper’s eyes, he immediately dazed his eyes.
Oh my god, who is this person!
Why does he carry so many silver notes when he goes out? Isn’t he afraid of being robbed?
After all, if these silver notes were robbed, let alone this life, even the next life, and the life after that… they would be worry-free for food and clothing, and he wouldn’t have to worry about not having enough silver to spend, but rather how to spend it!
However, when the shopkeeper finally woke up from the temptation of the silver notes, his mouth couldn’t help but carry a bitter smile.
What Gu Yu said just now was indeed not problematic.
If they had removed the jades in time, these things would not have happened.
Just by hearing the shop assistant talk about what happened at the entrance just now, and seeing Gu Yu directly take out a large amount of silver notes, it was clear that he was not someone to be easily provoked.
Compared to that, Wu Dao was immediately overshadowed, which also made the shopkeeper make up his mind.
Sell!
Anyway, when Wu Dao came looking for them, they would directly use Gu Yu as a scapegoat. If he wanted to cause trouble, he could go to the Gu Residence to find Gu Yu, and it would have nothing to do with them!
“Sir, please wait a moment. I’ll go and calculate the exact price, and then I’ll deliver it to you immediately!”
“Yes.”
Then, hearing the shopkeeper’s sudden change of tone, Gu Yu couldn’t help but smile slightly.
He didn’t say anything else, but waved his hand at the shopkeeper, indicating to be quick.
At the same time, he thought in his heart… As expected, money makes the mare go.
