“What are those?” Elder Liu pointed at the ten or so mahogany boxes and asked.
“This is my betrothal gift to Chen Meng’er. Please take a look. If you think it’s not enough, I can prepare more right away.” Yuwen Jing was telling the truth. He felt that no matter how much he gave Chen Meng’er, it could not express his love for her.
However, Yuwen Jing’s words made the first elder who came with him choke.
“Then open it up and let us take a look. We must be the judge of that,” Elder Liu said with a smile.
“That’s right. If you ask me, that little girl is our precious treasure. We won’t exchange her for a thousand gold pieces,” Elder Qu echoed. What he said was the truth, but to the first elder, it was a sign of a lion opening its mouth. The first elder’s mouth opened and closed, but in the end, he did not dare say anything.
!!
The current situation was different from the past. The current him was not like the past. Now, he only had the ident.i.ty of a first elder. Not only that, but he also had nothing to use against Yuwen Jing.
The first elder closed his eyes and sighed. Forget it, forget it. It was better to be out of sight. The first elder shifted his gaze away from the few mahogany boxes and looked elsewhere.
Elder Liu and Elder Qu were not the only ones who were curious. Yuwen Jing had given Chen Meng’er a betrothal gift. Even Chen Meng’er was curious about what Yuwen Jing had given her as a betrothal gift. Who asked Yuwen Jing to keep it a secret so well? He had never mentioned this to her before.
If it weren’t for the presence of Elder Liu and Chen Meng’er, Fatty and Skinny would have taken matters into their own hands to check it out. At this moment, they were all waiting for Yuwen Jing to reveal the contents of the boxes. Yuwen Jing wasn’t shy. He looked at Chen Meng’er, smiled at her, and then walked towards the few mahogany boxes.
For the first time, Chen Meng’er saw Yuwen Jing’s smile of delight. She was very moved. She actually blushed because of Yuwen Jing’s smile. Chen Meng’er quickly moved her eyes away from Yuwen Jing to calm her pounding heart.
Yuwen Jing opened the mahogany boxes one by one. The first few boxes held property certificates, certificates of shares, and the like. Yuwen Jing did not open them or read them out loud. Everyone did not feel much when they looked at them, they were quite puzzled as to what these pieces of paper were.
It was not until Yuwen Jing opened the last two mahogany boxes that everyone saw neatly stacked gold bullions in one box and neatly stacked hundred-dollar bills in the other box, everyone could not help but suck in a breath of cold air.
They were surprised because they rarely saw so many gold pieces and so much money piled up together.
Some people had already begun to silently calculate in their hearts how much these gold pieces would be worth if they were converted into money.
