The Real Heiress Has an Appraisal System
Chapter 65: Shengsheng, You Can Be an Appraiser, Why Can’t I Be an Entrepreneur?"I gotta say, Gu Shengsheng is a goddess now."
"I’m really curious how much money this thing could make."
Gu Shengsheng placed the finished ring on the table. Then, using some melee diamonds and prepared bands, she crafted several very delicate rings and said, "Alright, to my viewers ’My Turn To Be An Idiot,’ ’Zhang Cheng’s Liu Yifei,’ and ’Lin Daiyu Uproots a Weeping Willow’... your rings are ready. I’ll have a courier pick them up and ship them out later, so remember to send me your addresses."
"...This is the first time I’ve ever been ashamed of my username. The internet really isn’t a private space."
"Me too. I thought it was cool before, but now I’m suddenly mortified. Still, it’s great that I’m getting a ring!"
"Hahaha, streamer, I love you."
"Streamer, what kind of man gets to date a woman like you?! How about you consider me?"
"..."
Gu Shengsheng was busy checking her System’s attribute panel. Her Emotion Value had been rising continuously, but she still wasn’t able to level up.
Last time, she’d leveled up three times in a row.
But now, it had been a long time since her last level-up.
System:
[Emotion Value collected: 77,650. To unlock the next stage, 100,000 Emotion Value is required. Duplicate Emotion Value does not count.]
Gu Shengsheng: "Didn’t I only need twenty thousand Emotion Value to get a new attribute panel before?"
[System: The right of final interpretation belongs to the System.]
[Friendly Tip: The next stage’s panel attributes will allow the host to achieve a qualitative leap.]
’By that logic,’ Gu Shengsheng thought, ’leveling up to the next stage is going to be very difficult.’
But she decided not to worry about it. She would just let things happen naturally.
She went from that room back to the other side. Just as she walked in, took a sip of water, and sat on the sofa, ready to just lie down and relax...
The doorbell rang.
Gu Shengsheng opened the door to see Lu Linlin and Yang Jiao smiling at her. They quickly rushed inside.
Lu Linlin said, "Sister-in-law, aren’t we considerate? We waited until your stream was over to come find you."
Just as Gu Shengsheng was about to close the door, she saw Mrs. Lu standing there, holding a suitcase.
Gu Shengsheng: "..."
"Mrs. Lu? What are you doing here?"
Mrs. Lu sighed, shook her head, and her eyes suddenly filled with tears.
"It’s too much to say," she said.
Gu Shengsheng was taken aback. ’Did something happen...?’
Lu Linlin quickly came over, took Gu Shengsheng’s arm, and said, "Sister-in-law, Grandma got into a fight with the second and third branches of the family. She was heartbroken over her sons, so she came over to your place for some peace and quiet."
"I didn’t want to see their dead-fish faces either, so I came along too."
"Oh, okay." Gu Shengsheng felt it wasn’t that simple, but she didn’t press for more details.
After all, in the Lu Family, this kind of vicious fighting was a common occurrence.
Then Gu Shengsheng looked at Yang Jiao.
"So, Sister Yang, you’re here because...?" she asked.
Yang Jiao quickly stood up, looking a little flustered. "I didn’t get into a fight, and I’m not running away from home. I’m not staying here either."
That made Gu Shengsheng smile.
"Right," she said. "So, Sister Yang Jiao, what can I do for you?"
"I watched your livestream. My family is in the jewelry business. Shengsheng, that Infinite Blue of yours... would you be willing to sell it to me?"
Her tone was very sincere.
Mrs. Lu and Lu Linlin, showing no intention of giving them privacy, perked up their ears the moment they heard a price was being discussed.
The two of them were incredibly curious about this thing.
Gu Shengsheng’s interest was piqued. "Let me go get it from next door," she said. "It’s not too late for you to make an offer after you’ve seen the sample."
With that, Gu Shengsheng opened the door and went out.
Just then, Lu Shijing also opened his door. Seeing her hurried state, he asked, "Where are you off to?"
He was holding a glass of water, still trying to find an excuse to go back to his original home and see if Gu Shengsheng had made any changes to it.
Just as he was about to bring it up, he heard the old madam’s cheerful laughter.
Lu Shijing: "...You have guests?"
Gu Shengsheng gave him a baffled look. "My husband’s sister and grandmother. What’s it to you? Do you need something?"
"No." He started walking away. "I have something urgent to do."
Gu Shengsheng watched his unusual behavior. ’It’s the first time I’ve ever seen him so flustered. He even left the house wearing slippers.’
"Shengsheng, who were you talking to?"
Carrying the item, she walked back inside and said, "No one. Just a neighbor."
The old madam’s eyes were filled with sorrow. "I must really be losing it. For a moment, his voice sounded a bit like Shi Jing’s. I’m getting old and senile."
"Sure enough, being in Shi Jing’s house makes me think of him. He’s not one for talking and always has a sour look on his face for everyone. Why would he greet someone like that?"
Lu Linlin nodded and patted her grandmother’s back. "It’s okay. My brother is gone, so let’s not worry about him. Let’s look at some handsome men instead."
She then started scrolling through videos with her grandmother, and the old madam quickly forgot her earlier melancholy.
Gu Shengsheng smiled and turned to hand the ring to Yang Jiao.
"Sister Yang," she said, "take a look first. I made this myself. I’m not some famous master, so it’s hard to say if there’s a market for it."
"I won’t sell it cheaply, either. If you decide to buy it, you have to consider the price and the market."
Hearing this didn’t deter Yang Jiao at all; instead, it made her even more determined.
"Shengsheng, I believe in you."
"Besides, I’m not some naive little girl who doesn’t understand anything. The fact that I was the first to find you and get to negotiate with you means I’ve already seized the first-mover advantage. In reality, you’d be selling at a loss if you sell to me now."
"I had an expert in the field appraise this diamond. It’s worth around twenty million. I’ll add in your craftsmanship fee and give you twenty-five million. How does that sound?"
Gu Shengsheng had bought it for less than a million. As for the equipment and materials, they could be used again in the future. Even factoring in all the costs, Gu Shengsheng would still make a profit of over ten million.
The profit was easy to calculate.
Gu Shengsheng had no reason to refuse.
"I’m willing to sell."
"But, Sister Yang Jiao... Mrs. Yang doesn’t have a good impression of me, does she? If she finds out, she definitely won’t approve of this."
"And more importantly, the Yang Group has its own fixed partners for procurement, like jewelry suppliers. The company won’t agree to you coming directly to me like this."
"Shengsheng, you’re right." She smiled and said, "I know you’re saying this out of concern for me, as a friend."
Otherwise, most people would just take the money and hand over the goods. Who would care about all this?
"As for my mother, she doesn’t own any company shares, so she has no right to interfere."
"It’s true the company wouldn’t approve of me sourcing from you. The funds I’m using to pay for this are my own savings from my annual stock dividends."
"The first step to getting them under my control is to prove my own abilities."
Heaven knows how long she had wanted to take this step.
But... she had always hesitated, been meek and timid. She couldn’t seem to do anything right.
But after seeing Gu Shengsheng shining so brightly at the banquet, Yang Jiao felt as if that light had pierced her straight to the heart.
She thought, ’I don’t want to be just a pampered rich girl. I want to be a businesswoman.’
