109 The Dark Rose

After cutting more than twenty stones from the first trip Rong Yue had made to the night market, Lu San was already confident in her skills and so when he saw them carefully inspect the stones to be sure that there was no cracks or anything, he looked just unfazed as she was.

When the five stones passed the check, the started the main cutting.

Rong Yue noticed that their equipment was more advanced than that of the night market store that they went to and so in less than ten minutes, all of the five stands with the stones being cut were already glistening with light from the stones.

The three bosses that had met with them were stunned silly as they saw the light. She had claimed there were stones in all of them. And there seemed to be truly!

As soon as the stones were all cut, they were even more more shocked. All of them had stones.

Since when has that happened to them? Most of their cutters spent days cutting before they could find 10 Jade and yet they had been delivered in one day to them.

More importantly, other than emperor jade, every of the five Jade that had been cut before had a partner from the one she had brought before.

Was this coincidence?

The woman turned back to look at Rong Yue, “did you know the stones that were in them?” She asked, her eyes searching to see if she would find any clue from Rong Yue.

…..

“It’s a beautiful coincidence as the emperor jades were picked from more than a year’s gathering to impress you, the new one however, is from our last batch of sourcing, since they were broken apart from only one source, it’s not hard to see that there are three to five more smaller pieces containing similar ones,” she explained patiently.

Since she covered all the dots, there was nothing more for the woman to ask and she nodded in understanding.

“Then that is a good thing after all. We would be buying these ten jades from you at a very good price, however, we hope that you can explain what you want from your next deal to us appropriately,” one of the men spoke up.

“I would like to supply you stones, however, as I don’t have cutting equipments, I won’t be able to know the value of the stone that I bring, if you would allow me to supervise all the cutting process every time, and sell at the value of the Jade inside the stone for the next three months, then we have a deal,”

The three of them looked at her in confusion. It was hard to understand a deal like this, after all, she could get enough money to buy a stone cutter just from today’s deal. Even a little child would know that she had ulterior motives just based on the condition she had placed.

For people like them that had been in the important running of a big jewelry empire like DKR, they were not lacking in sense and could already sense that something was wrong.

If the benefits they stood to gain wasn’t so great, they would have immediately rejected a deal like this.

“Since the boss is around, let us ask him to handle a matter like this,” one of them whispered but his words received a glare from the woman immediately.

“What do you mean the boss is around? A matter like this should be taken to the boss?” The woman replied harshly, their boss was barely here, if they took a matter like this to him, he would of course think they were becoming worse.

“You should know that boss is here because he’s displeased about the little turn over rate, let’s take this matter up, if his assistants think it’s trival, they won’t let us reach the boss,” the second man said, it was not hard to see that his authority was the highest between them as the woman gave up as soon as he talked.

“Miss, if you don’t mind, we would lead you and partner to a resting place, while we would meet with the higher ups to let them know your offer,” she spoke up.

Rong Yue nodded, having no problem with that and signaled that Lu San goes ahead to pick the newly cut five Jade.

The three of them then left the cutting room. They were led to the fourth floor and shown to a room that looked like it was designed for this purpose exactly, however, Rong Yue was sure that there was going to be cameras there.

Lu San was also aware of such a thing and so even though the both of them entered and sat down without searching for a camera, they barely exchanged any words.

“What do you think would be their final decision,” Rong Yue asked him after a while.

“It depends on how badly they need the Jade,” Lu San said, after then, the both of them discussed several causal matters after which Rong Yue started to play with her phone.

Since she was trading stocks, she liked to keep her eyes on things in the market, everyday, she was able to rake in huge profits everyday.

But regardless, she couldn’t be careless, after all, she would lose money if she made any mistakes.

“Master, I’m watching over it, you can let your mind rest,” Little Loli exclaimed as she felt Rong Yue’s line of thought.

“Okay,” Rong Yue agreed quickly and then closed the software on her phone, everything she had been doing all disappeared like as if they were never on the phone.

In the top floor of DKR, a young man in an all black shirt and pants entered the top executive room and explained some matters to the man that was seated on the white chair and dressed in complete white.

“Is that some matter you expect me to handle?” He asked with frustration crossing his attractive features.

“No master, but the lady in question is the same one that came this city’s headquarters the last time you were there,” the man in black said.

After that day, his master had made him collect all the information on the woman, it was not hard to see that she had left an impression on him.

So instead of just going down to deal with the matter, as soon as he checked the camera and realized that it was Miss Rong Yue, he had decided to inform him.

Mo Yifan smiled widely as he heard that part of the information.

“To think that she was the one that came to meet me first,” he said with a low and throaty chuckle.

“Have them send her up, where are the jades she brought and give me a recording of everything she has done since she came here,” he demanded and then leaned back into his seat.

His assistant rushed out and went to bring all the required matters, he also asked the three handling the matter of sourcing to send the two upstairs.

When Rong Yue and Lu San were called upstairs, her eyes glistened with a little suspicion. Was the matter such a big deal?

For her, she had put out her offer in an obvious way because she wanted them to understand that she was interested in how they ran their matters. As long as they didn’t mind sharing, they would also gain an unlimited supplies to Jade for three months which would give her enough time to learn the ropes.

In fact, she felt like after the trip today, she didn’t necessarily need them, she had her capital and she had gotten an office blue print.

Even if this was just some A city branch, it was still enough for her to get started.

Later on, she was certain that her own blueprint would get even better than this.

“If they seem unwilling, we can just sell this at the highest price possible and move forward, I don’t necessarily need much,”

Lu San nodded in agreement, there was no need to let go of good Jade if they didn’t want to cooperate.

Unfortunately, was Mo Yifan going to let go of this chance to latch onto Rong Yue, after all, he had been keeping his eyes on her.

The waiting room on the top floor was about ten times better than the one they were in before, however, the familiar painting of white that was in the hallway and room had Rong Yue’s brows squinting in confusion.

It was almost like she was taken back to the top floor of the dark Rose organization.

Her suspicion was however confirmed in less than three minutes when an adjoining room to the waiting room opened and Mo Yifan stepped in.

It was like everything became clear in a minute for her.

DRK stood for Dark Rose!!

If she wasn’t sure that she didn’t want to deal with them before, she was now more certain that she didn’t want to do business with an underworld company!

“Miss Rong, it’s usually so hard to reach you, who would have thought that I’ll have the honor to meet you today,” Mo Yifan said with a knowing smile as he sat down opposite her.

“I have no idea what Mr Mo is trying to say, our previous meeting was nothing more than coincidence,”

“It seems like you want to start a jewelry company, would you be needing my help in any way?” He said, ignoring her dismissal of the two attempts he had made to contact her.

“Let me be direct here, I had no idea of DRK’s relationship with the Dark Rose, I came here to seal a deal with DRK but I’m afraid that would be impossible now,” Rong Yue said coldly, her facial expression was enough to show that she meant what she said.

“I guess Miss Rong has a misconception about me,” Mo Yifan said, standing up from where he was seated.

“You can settle matters with the representatives that you have met, I’ll do my possible best to not get involved, however, three months is far too much for you,” he said and then gave her a knowing glance.

“I had no intention of hiding my real purpose here. However, I don’t have any interest here again,” she said confidently.

Although he had been nice to her, she still couldn’t forget what Song Jian had gone through all those years from his organization.

So when looking at that devilishly handsome face that could rival the one of that man she had come to know, she had no good feelings towards him. In fact, he was like a rose to her, exactly like his company.

Pretty and moving on the outside but full of thorns.

And she had no interest in seeking for benefits on her behalf.

“Since you are set on your decision, I guess we would wait for faith to bring us together again,” Mo Yifan said and left the room without looking back.
