Chapter 1408: Continuing the Scheme (2)
Li Shaocong shook his head slightly and said, “This is the time to test your skill . Actually, this is a result of splicing . If you look carefully, you can see the difference in the patterns . ”
Everyone was enlightened, but they still couldn’t understand what was going on . Furthermore, there were very few people who spoke . They continued to maintain their vigilance .
Seeing that everyone was still acting like this, Li Shaocong shook his head helplessly and said, “Don’t tell me everyone thinks I’m lying to you? Come… everyone, look over there . ”
Fangzheng looked over and saw a surveillance camera in the corner .
Li Shaocong said, “Behind this surveillance camera are hundreds of our company’s employees . Now that I’m here, they are all watching . Of course, my father is also watching . Everyone must be curious why I’m so eager to give a lecture here . To be frank, I’ve not been in the country since I was young and have been studying overseas . Therefore, my father always feels that I might not have the ability to take over all of his businesses .
“When I come back, I refuse to do any promotions . I’m here to explain these things to everyone because I only have one goal! It’s to show my father of my capabilities, I, Li Shaocong, am not only a professor who studied overseas . I can still be a professional expositor . I can also hold the situation and be able to take over the family business!
“So here, I value my ability and reputation, not money .
“Now that I’m facing the camera, it’s even more impossible for me to act recklessly . I can’t lose face in front of my employees, nor can I embarrass my father . The logic is simple!”
When everyone heard this, they nodded their heads slightly and put their guard down .
Li Shaocong said, “Alright, let’s continue the topic . We were talking about soft and hard jade, then is our oriental jasper soft or hard jade? The answer is that it’s hard jade . Let’s show everyone what’s soft jade and what’s hard jade!”
With that said, Li Shaocong said, “Little Chen, bring a piece of glass over . ”
Little Chen immediately found a piece of glass and brought it over .
Li Shaocong picked up the dark green glass and said, “Everyone, take a look . This is a piece of soft jade . ”
Everyone did not understand what he was going to do, and they were curious as well . Hence, they surrounded him and watched .
Li Shaocong held the jade and said, “Watch carefully!”
With that said, Li Shaocong used the bracelet to scratch hard on the glass!
Upon seeing this scene, many people bared their teeth . Clearly, their hearts ached for the bracelet . After all, the labels on the shelves numbered in the thousands .
After Li Shaocong finished the scratch, he picked up the glass and showed it to everyone . “Everyone, look at what’s on the glass?”
Everyone looked and Fangzheng said, “There are white marks . ”
Li Shaocong gave a thumbs up and said, “That’s right . It’s a white mark, but it’s not glass . ”
As he spoke, Li Shaocong used a towel to wipe the glass . The white marks on the glass disappeared . Li Shaocong said, “Look, there’s nothing . Where did the white marks come from? It’s from this . ”
Li Shaocong took the bracelet and everyone subconsciously leaned over to take a look . Indeed, there were several scratches on the bracelet .
Many old men felt their hearts ache…

However, Li Shaocong was extremely calm and relaxed . He smiled and said, “Everyone, there’s no need to feel the pinch . It’s not worth a lot . Also, look carefully . There’s a layer of wax outside the jade . What got rubbed away was the wax, not jade . Once it’s sent to the factory behind, waxing it will return it to normal . ”
With that said, Li Shaocong said, “Let’s take a look at hard jade . ”
With that said, Li Shaocong took out a dark red bracelet and made a few strokes on the glass . But after three strokes, the glass was sliced open!
Li Shaocong immediately picked up the bracelet and said, “Everyone, look at this . Are there any traces on it?”
Everyone quickly leaned in . There were no traces at all, so they shook their heads .
Li Shaocong said, “This is our oriental jasper . It’s very hard . ”
Then, Li Shaocong took out a lighter and wrapped a plastic bag around the rock . He used the jade for a heat conducting experiment . As the plastic bag was clinging to the jade, no matter how he lit the plastic bag, he didn’t manage to light it up…
In order to test it further, he borrowed a strand of hair from an auntie and also stuck it to the jade . When the hair wasn’t burnt, many people were amazed .
“Alright, this is the end of the experiment . In order to express my gratitude to Auntie, I’ll give you a small item . ” As Li Shaocong spoke, he took out an oriental jasper Pixiu ornament that was about the size of a thumb from the counter and handed it to the auntie . “Auntie, how much do you think this ornament costs?”
The auntie shook her head .
Li Shaocong smiled and said, “Give me 100 yuan, I’ll give it to you, how about that? Don’t worry, I won’t earn your money . ”

The auntie looked puzzled . Give you 100 yuan, but you’re still not earning my money? But looking at the glass cabinet which showed that the Pixiu ornament was worth a thousand, it was quite tempting .
When Li Shaocong saw this, he smiled even more happily . “How about this? We’ll play a game . If you think you are losing out, I’ll return the money to you . How about that? Don’t worry, I, Li Shaocong, won’t stoop so low as to cheat you off a hundred yuan . My reputation isn’t that worthless . ”
Everyone laughed when they heard that . Clearly, everyone had accepted Li Shaocong’s identity as a rich second-generation heir and felt that what he said made sense .
The auntie took out 100 yuan and gave it to Li Shaocong .
Li Shaocong said, “Auntie, since you’re so cooperative, I’ll give you a 50% discount, alright? Little Chen, get two fifty-yuan notes . ”
Little Chen immediately took out two fifty-yuan notes . Li Shaocong took out one fifty yuan and returned it to the auntie . “This is a fifty percent discount for you, but I said that I won’t earn your money . Then, what about this fifty yuan?”
Everyone did not understand what he was up to . They just looked at him without saying a word .
Li Shaocong took out a tiny silk pouch and stuffed the money into it . Then, he said, “Does everyone know the meaning of the mythical hybrid creature, Pixiu?”
At this moment, someone said, “Legend has it that the Pixiu eats gold and treasure, and it doesn’t expel it . It means that it will attract money and make one rich . ”
Li Shaocong said, “Well said . Little Chen, give this friend a Pixiu . ”
When everyone heard that, they could only exclaim . He’s actually giving a Pixiu ornament? Immediately, everyone’s eyes lit up as they had the motivation to participate in the game .

No one noticed the smile in Li Shaocong’s eyes when he saw everyone’s reaction .
Li Shaocong continued, “This friend is partially right . There’s still a portion that he hasn’t said . Pixiu also has another name—Heaven . It has immense power over the heavens, so it also represents being promoted and becoming rich . At the same time, Pixiu is one the nine sons of the Dragon, and it can dispel evil and ward off disaster . The ancients pray to Pixiu, so the Pixiu is also a god . Therefore, I can give the Pixiu, but also not . Therefore, I took 100 yuan from this auntie and gave a 50% discount—50 yuan . However, I won’t earn that 50 yuan, so I’ll leave it in the silk bag . Auntie, when you return, bring it to a monastery and donate it to turn merit into good fortune . How about that?”
The auntie was delighted when she heard that . She immediately said, “Okay, no problem . ”
As she said this, she took back her 50 yuan . All of a sudden, she got back her 100 yuan and even earned a Pixiu .
The others watched with envious eyes .
