68 System’s Deep Navigation Function Activated
The call was from the general manager of the Sotheby’s Auction House, Chen Qiushan.
“I’ve already received it. Thank you, Manager Chen,” Ye Feng immediately replied.
“Mr. Ye, you’re too polite. You’ve done me a big favor this time. If it wasn’t for your painting, I would’ve lost a lot of face.”
“You’re too kind, Manager Chen. I still have to thank you for this painting being able to fetch such a high price.”
“Alright, let’s not be so formal. This time, we’re friends. If there’s anything I can help you with in the future, just let me know.”
“What a coincidence, I have something to ask you.”
Ye Feng suddenly thought of something and spoke hurriedly.
“Go ahead,” Chen Qiushan quickly agreed.
“Well, I have a piece of raw jade that I want to sell. Do you have any channels?” Ye Feng’s att.i.tude was very sincere.
“Hai, I thought it was something big. It’s such a small matter?”
Chen Qiushan sounded a little disappointed, but he gave a quick answer.
“I have a very good friend who has opened a stone gambling shop in Zhonghai. I’ll tell him about it, so you can go to him directly.”
Then, he sent an address to Ye Feng.
“Thank you, Manager Chen.”
Ye Feng chatted with Chen Qiushan for a while more before hanging up the phone.
Xu Man, who had been eavesdropping, asked, “Who’s this Manager Chen you’re talking about?”
Ye Feng lifted his teacup and took a sip. “Chen Qiushan from Sotheby’s Auction House.”
“Chen Qiushan?”
Xu Man was stunned.
“What, is he very famous?” Ye Feng saw her expression and wanted to laugh.
“He’s not just famous, he’s a legend in the business world. Many of his business cases have been written into business textbooks. I didn’t expect you to know him. Looks like I’m going to have to look at you in a new light.”
Xu Man’s gaze toward Ye Feng was filled with curiosity.
She really couldn’t understand this boy-next-door that she had watched grow up.
What had this guy experienced?
How could such a drastic change happen in such a short time?
Ye Feng could not help but feel a little helpless when he was sized up by her.
All he did was know Chen Qiushan.
Was there a need for this?
…
The two of them had afternoon tea.
As Xu Man still had work to do, she returned to the company first.
Meanwhile, Ye Feng brought the raw jade stone to the stone gambling den that Chen Qiushan mentioned.
When he arrived at his destination, he was immediately stunned by the scene in front of him.
The stone gambling den was at least ten thousand square meters.
The market was filled with stalls.
There were piles of raw stones of various sizes on the stall.
The stone gambling den had a huge crowd, and it looked as noisy as a wet market.
After all, there was no lack of people in the world who wanted to get rich overnight.
“Argh! Let me die, I’ve lost all my family’s fortune, and now it’s all gone. What’s the point of me living?”
The moment Ye Feng entered the market, he saw a middle-aged man with unkempt hair and a dirty face wailing in pain.
But soon, the man was taken out by the security guards.
He could still hear his heart-wrenching cries from afar.
To put it bluntly, stone gambling was like a knife to heaven and a knife to h*ll.
Some people would become rich overnight if they won the bet.
There were luxury cars, beautiful women, villas, and everything.
And the person who lost the bet was likely to go bankrupt.
After all, there were too many uncertainties in gambling.
No one had x-ray eyes that could see what was inside the stone.
They could only bet on their luck.
Ye Feng shook his head and was about to call the friend that Chen Qiushan had introduced.
At this moment, the system’s voice suddenly sounded in his mind.
[Congratulations, host. You’ve triggered the system’s deep navigation function. This function will automatically scan for hidden treasures within a one-meter radius. Unlocking this function will cost you 10 million. Do you want to unlock it?]
Ye Feng heard the system notification and was stunned for a moment.
It can be played like this?
Without any hesitation, he immediately chose ‘confirm’.
It was just a mere 10 million.
It was nothing to him now.
[System’s deep navigation function activated.]
Following the system’s notification, a miraculous scene appeared.
The system had actually marked out those raw gemstones that were pitch-black on the surface and had no inkling at all.
[Normal stone, value 0]
[Glutinous-type jade, about 1.2 kg, worth about 2 million yuan.]
[Ice-type jade, about 0.7 kg…]
The information of each raw stone was listed in detail.
Ye Feng’s heart immediately jumped twice.
They were simply mountains of gold.
Moreover, it was the kind that he could pick up at will.
Then, here came the problem.
Since the deep navigation system could display the information of the raw stone, could it display the information of a person?
For example, what color of underwear was she wearing?
What was her size?
What style?
At this moment, a female staff member of the stone gambling den walked over. “Sir, how can I help you?”
Ye Feng looked at her and sighed in disappointment.
It seemed that this deep navigation could only be used for treasure hunting.
It was ineffective against humans.
“No need, I’m just looking around.”
Ye Feng rejected her good intentions. He walked to a stall and picked out a few raw jadeite stones.
“I’ll take these.”
Then, he walked to another stall. “That one, that one, and that one, I’ll take them all.”
Just like that, he shuttled back and forth between the various stalls.
His strange behavior immediately attracted the attention of many people in the stone gambling den.
Was this guy here to buy raw stones or vegetables?
