The Real Heiress Has an Appraisal System
Chapter 51: My Company Can’t Even Earn That Much in a DayIf you did the math, it was seven million per box, plus ten million in gold.
That meant if Gu Shengsheng sold everything, she would make over 70 million from this one trip.
Best of all, she had only spent a little over ten million to acquire the location’s information.
This was a truly can’t-lose deal.
But could all these boxes really be sold?
That was never in doubt. For Gu Shengsheng, selling things was incredibly simple.
The people around her had already claimed all but one box.
Many viewers in the livestream chat had wanted to buy it.
But a 70-year-old man jumped straight down from the well opening and, in his excitement, came rushing over with a limp.
"Oh my, I want it, I want it! This old man will take the last one!"
When Zhao Dehai saw Qin Guocheng, he was a bit surprised. "Didn’t you say you were going to spend the rest of your life in Rui City and never come back to Beijing City?"
"Come on, now. It’s not like I made a solemn vow. I want to be in Beijing City, so what business is it of yours what an old man like me does?"
"..." Zhao Dehai was speechless.
"Master, Master, give this old man a box!"
Hearing this form of address, Gu Shengsheng frowned. "Calling me Master won’t get you a free one. Mr. Qin, I’m not your master. That was just a joke, please don’t take it to heart."
Her saying this, combined with the shocked looks from everyone else, only served to energize Mr. Qin even more.
He declared, "You old geezers, jealous, aren’t you? A genius like her is now my master. From now on, being close by, I’ll be the first to get all the good stuff!"
"And you all still want to compete with me..." he said, striking a mock fighting pose.
Zhao Dehai was exasperated. "You’re seventy, not seven. You’re a public figure, and you’re on a livestream. Don’t act like a fool, it’s embarrassing."
"..." Only then did Qin Guocheng settle down.
After transferring seven million to Gu Shengsheng, he took the last box for himself.
Everyone was a little nervous as they opened their boxes, but one by one, they all finished.
Among them, three boxes of Copper Coins were discovered, with pieces from both the Yuan Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty. There were all sorts of varieties, which showed that the original owner must have been an avid Copper Coin collector.
These three boxes were all part of a collection, so they contained coins from various dynasties.
Taking them back would definitely turn a profit; at the very least, they could make back their seven million.
As for what Gao Liu excitedly opened, it was a bunch of medicinal herbs.
That’s right, he wouldn’t even come close to breaking even. In fact, he had lost seven million. There was nothing to be done about it. Sometimes when your luck is bad, it stays bad all day.
These herbs were the remains of some ginseng, snow lotuses, and other rare and exotic plants...
Perhaps because they had been in the cellar for too long, they had gotten damp, and the box hadn’t preserved them well. As a result, the entire box of contents was ruined.
Now, only a few simple remnants could be identified.
After that, the basement was filled with Gao Liu’s miserable sighs.
Zhao Dehai tried to console him, "It’s alright, it’s alright. You’re always so hesitant and indecisive. Just consider this a lesson!"
"Besides, this kind of thing is all up to fate!"
As he spoke, he almost burst out laughing. Zhao Dehai had also opened a box—a box full of gold.
You really couldn’t rub it in too much about something like that.
The more Zhao Dehai tried to "console" him, the angrier Gao Liu became. "Get away from me!"
"I’m telling you, from now on, you guys from the Cultural Relics Bureau better stay far away when you see me. I’m holding a serious grudge!"
Zhao Dehai laughed even louder. "If those herbs of yours were still intact, you really could have made a lot of money. But, there are no ’ifs’..."
With that, the two middle-aged men started chasing each other around, throwing mock punches.
The netizens, on the other hand, were having a blast and found the spectacle quite amusing.
Who would’ve thought these two would end up brawling like this.
"It’s nothing, just watching two people I’ve only seen in the news start fighting on the internet. My fellow netizens, I feel so helpless."
"Yeah, middle-aged men acting like children. I would never, ababababa!"
"So cute, hahaha! Anyway, I don’t care about the rest. Our streamer made a killing. She’s the type to make big moves in silence."
"The streamer just made over 70 million in one go. I wonder what she’s going to do with it."
"I’m curious too!"
"..."
Gu Shengsheng smiled as she looked at the livestream chat and said, "I’m saving up to buy a house."
’A girl’s got to have a little nest of her own.’
She had come to a strange new world. At first, her own family’s house hadn’t felt like a home. Now, she was married into a new family, and while her relationship with them was good, she still longed for a house of her own.
’It felt like only with a house could she have a true sanctuary of her own in this unfamiliar city.’
The thought brought her a great sense of peace.
"If you want to buy a villa in Beijing City, you’re still a little short, Streamer!"
"But it’s enough for a place in the farther districts."
Gu Shengsheng said, "It’s fine. I’ll save up slowly. I’ll be able to buy one eventually."
She wanted to pick a house where she could plant flowers and herbs, in a quiet neighborhood that was still convenient, all designed exactly to her own liking.
’That would be a truly safe place that belonged only to her.’
Gu Shengsheng looked at the money in her account, finally feeling content.
In a single day, she’d made a staggering 70-plus million. The news shot straight to the top of Weibo’s trending topics.

At the Lu Group, Lin Kai rushed in frantically. Lu Chaoyang asked with a cold face, "Is the company’s system fixed?"
"It just came back online. We’re explaining the situation to our clients now."
Lu Chaoyang clenched his fists. He hadn’t rested all day, and on top of that, he’d been completely aggravated. From morning to night, not a single good thing had happened.
For such a major incident to happen to the company out of the blue... there hadn’t been any warning. Now there was this huge vulnerability. He pressed a hand to his forehead and said, "Hurry! Call a meeting. Let’s see what the proposed solutions are."
"A lot of shareholders are already in an uproar. The PR department is handling the public response."
At the mention of this, Lu Chaoyang shot to his feet, enraged. "Public response? Public response?! We were trending at number one! Is the PR department full of useless freeloaders? It’s been a whole day, an entire day, and they still can’t get anything right!"
The head of the PR department stood timidly behind Lin Kai, not daring to breathe too loudly. "There were too many clicks from netizens... it was really difficult to pay to suppress it. But fortunately, we’re number two now."
Lu Chaoyang frowned. "Which celebrity’s scandal did you buy to push us down?"
As he spoke, he opened his phone and tapped on the number one trending topic.
Lin Kai tried to intervene, "Boss, maybe you shouldn’t look. It’ll just upset you."
But the warning came too late. He had already seen that it was Gu Shengsheng.
Gu Shengsheng had earned over seventy million in a single day... He ran a huge corporation, a leading enterprise and a family business, yet even he couldn’t generate seventy million in revenue in one day.
Lu Chaoyang didn’t want to admit his own incompetence, but that seemed to be the reality of the situation.
’I can’t even measure up to a substitute bride who was married off to me for good luck...’
He smashed his phone on the ground.
He was fuming, his face red as a beet. "Get out! And find a solution!"
"What are you all staring at me for!"
