Seeing He hesitate, Ye Qiu gave a faint smile and asked, "What, are you scared?"
He shook his head and said, "What is there for to be scared of? Baya's forces have provoked you; they should be the ones afraid. Brother Ye, just wait a mont, I'll check if there's a suitable diamond."
"Let's wait here for a bit."
Ye Qiu pulled Emma to sit on the sofa nearby, patiently waiting.
He went into his workshop and made a few phone calls.
In about five or six minutes, he returned to the living room, smiled at Ye Qiu, and said, "Brother Ye, I've got news. One of my diamond mines recently unearthed a diamond of excellent quality, about the size of an egg."
"Do you think it's fine?" Ye Qiu turned to look at Emma.
Although he hadn't seen the diamond's actual appearance, Ye Qiu had great trust in He's character; otherwise, he wouldn't have co to him.
"An egg-sized diamond, isn't that too big?" Emma exclaid in astonishnt. If she hadn't co from a big family and seen a lot, she would have jumped up and scread by now.
Indeed, this diamond deal is significant for Emma's family, affecting its developnt trendously. However, neither Emma nor the entire family had ever considered buying a diamond as big as an egg.
Moreover, it's of superior quality!
The Emma family could afford a diamond of up to half the size of an egg at most.
In fact, what Emma wanted to say most was not that it's too big, but rather, isn't the price too high?
She held back, afraid of embarrassing Ye Qiu, so she didn't say it.
He, being a shrewd businessman, instantly guessed Emma's thoughts. Wanting to strengthen his relationship with Ye Qiu, he said without hesitation, "Miss Emma, don't worry too much. Since Brother Ye brought you here, I won't overcharge you. But He never makes a loss, so I'll sell you this diamond at cost price."
"Why don't you first tell the maximum price you can afford?" He continued to ask.
Emma thought for a mont and stated the maximum amount her family could bear.
She didn't hold out much hope; under normal circumstances, that money could only buy a diamond half the size of an egg.
To Emma's surprise, upon hearing her price, He imdiately slapped the table and laughed, "Miss Emma, you are very lucky. The cost price of this diamond is exactly the amount you just ntioned. If you're willing, we can make the deal!"
"What?" Emma gasped, covering her mouth in shock.
She never expected He to concede this much.
It's not just about the cost price!
It's a loss-making deal!
"Ye Qiu is truly formidable; it seems I underestimated him before."
Emma marveled quietly. After a brief thought, she realized that the reason He was willing to make such a big concession and lose so much profit was entirely because of Ye Qiu!
How terrifying must Ye Qiu's background be?
Seeing Emma stunned and unable to decide, Ye Qiu shook his head in disbelief and joked, "If you're not satisfied, I can take you to another place."
"No, no, no, I'm satisfied, I'm really very satisfied!"
Emma shook her head repeatedly, afraid that Ye Qiu was serious and she'd miss such a good opportunity. She quickly stood up and extended her hand to He, "I am willing to accept this deal, happy cooperation."
"Happy cooperation!" He shook hands with Emma. Though he lost a significant amount of profit, almost equivalent to his net inco for nearly half a year, he didn't even bat an eye, considering it worthwhile to gain Ye Qiu's favor.
Owing Ye Qiu a personal favor is worth far more than a top-quality diamond.
It's not a loss-making deal at all.
Soon, He and Emma signed the transaction contract, but the diamond was at the mine, quite far away, and it would take so ti to transport it.
He invited Ye Qiu to stay at his residence, but Ye Qiu flatly refused. For Ye Qiu, even a diamond the size of a human head couldn't compare to his brother's life!
Right now, finding Cat and Huang Zhentian as soon as possible is crucial!
Having co to He's place, Ye Qiu naturally wouldn't let this savvy guy off the hook. After entrusting He to help investigate Cat's whereabouts, he left with Emma.

Huaxia, Lu Province.
The Zhuge Clan.
The Great Protector finally inford the clan leader of the news of Zhuge Ming and Zhuge Ling's deaths!
Hearing the news, the entire Zhuge Clan was shaken!
In the council hall!
A silence fell, the atmosphere extrely oppressive.
Upon learning of the deaths of the Zhuge siblings, all the senior mbers of the Zhuge Clan were enraged!
"Clan Leader, that kid nad Ye Qiu is simply too arrogant; he just up and killed our Zhuge Clan heirs! We absolutely cannot let him go unpunished!"
"In my opinion, this whole thing was ultimately caused by the Dongfang Family. They've grown too bold; I think we should obliterate the Dongfang Family first, let everyone see that our Zhuge Clan is not to be trifled with!"
"Exactly! If our Zhuge Clan's elites all move out, won't it take only monts to wipe out the Dongfang Family?"
All the high-ranking mbers of the Zhuge Clan glared at the clan leader sitting in the main seat, each filled with burning fury, eager to storm the Dongfang Family right then and there.
The clan leader frowned, his face dark as he said, "Calm down, everyone. The Dongfang Family has been a Hidden Clan for thousands of years, and even if they are in decline, they are not to be underestimated by us.
Moreover, Ye Qiu killed Zhuge Ming and his sister and also killed the Second Protector, while seriously injuring the Third Protector. We, the Zhuge Clan, have suffered a great loss because of him.
Do you think I want to swallow this indignation? But consider this: if we rush to attack the Dongfang Family now and encounter Ye Qiu, we're bound to suffer significant damage in our current state!"
"What's more, that little girl from the Dongfang Family has also reached the Half-Step Divinity Transformation level and has received the Secret Realm's legacy. It's safe to say that the Dongfang Family's overall strength has increased significantly. Do you think they are so easy to deal with?"
After reprimanding the senior mbers, Clan Leader Zhuge slamd the table again, looking at the young man closest to him.
Zhuge Yang, the strategist of the Zhuge Clan, known as Little Zhuge!
"Zhuge Yang, what do you think we should do in this situation?"
As soon as Clan Leader Zhuge finished speaking, expectant glances fell upon Zhuge Yang.
