The eldest Miss clearly didn’t tell the whole truth, mixing facts and falsehoods. Why didn’t Lin Tian seem surprised or shocked at all?
Rewind to half an hour ago, when Qian Jin sowed discord, enticing the eldest Miss to speak on stage, aiming to make the Xiao Family a target, Lin Tian sensed that things were going awry.
Therefore, before the eldest Miss addressed the crowd, Lin Tian whispered so words to her, and those words were exactly what she relayed now.
The dicine formula was indeed acquired from the Japanese, but the actual situation wasn’t as exaggerated. The formula originally wasn’t from the Xiao Family, but it undeniably flowed out from Huaxia; it originally wasn’t the Japanese’s.
These words contained half-truths; people more or less knew the Xiao Family had several conflicts with the Japanese recently, so they didn’t doubt the eldest Miss’s words. Moreover, the Xiao Family had also visited Japan recently, leading them to naturally associate it with their intention to reclaim the formula beyond just attending auctions.
The speech Lin Tian taught the eldest Miss was reasonable and grounded in facts, persuading the crowd to believe it wholeheartedly.
The crowd imdiately beca outraged; however, the anger was not directed at the eldest Miss but at the Japanese. After all, the Japanese weren’t innocent, having once stolen the research data of "Blood Angel" from the Xiao Family’s lab.
Lin Tian intended to shift the bla onto the Japanese; they had done so many bad things to the Xiao Family, and Lin Tian was determined that they should shoulder this bla.
With the change in the crowd’s attitude, the eldest Miss felt sowhat relieved. After all, even as an Ancient Martial Artist, she couldn’t kill off all the opponents here—this was the business world, not the Ancient Martial World. Sotis brute force wouldn’t work; strategy was required.
The eldest Miss glanced gratefully at Lin Tian; if it weren’t for his guidance, the situation would have undoubtedly worsened.
However, the eldest Miss remained vigilant because the crowd’s change in attitude was only temporary. Once actual interests were involved, people’s minds could easily shift again.
"Everyone already knows the origin of the healing dicine; now let introduce Xiao Family’s jadeite jewelry," the eldest Miss continued, drawing the audience’s focus once more.
"Xiao Family’s jadeite cos from the Gambling Stone Festival in Zhonghai City. Everyone is probably familiar with the premium jadeite we unearthed. We invited Master Song Yanan, a jade carving master from the Shanghai school, to work on processing the top-quality jadeite. The combination of premium jadeite and Master Song’s exquisite craftsmanship produced breathtaking and lifelike pieces."
"I won’t hide from everyone; at the auction, the Three Pure Ones’ Holy Realm indeed fetched a price of 1.8 billion, and Tianxue Jewelry’s pieces have also won first at an international design competition. I don’t say this to show off but to express that Tianxue Jewelry intends to work diligently, bringing more outstanding pieces to you all."
These words weren’t taught by Lin Tian; they were completely improvised by the eldest Miss. However, she spoke with confidence and used the opportunity to promote the brand.
It must be said, the eldest Miss’s business acun was adept at seizing opportunities. Everyone present was wealthy and didn’t lack money; they were the biggest potential buyers of top-tier jadeite.
Notably, there were quite a few won among the rchants present. Won are inherently drawn to beauty, and with the eldest Miss’s introduction, the won showed interested glances.
"Eldest Miss, I heard you unearthed premium purple jade, the imperial glass type that’s once in a century, but unfortunately I’ve never had the chance to see it. Could we possibly have a look today?" a female rchant asked.
The won in the hall nodded in agreent; the imperial glass purple jade is extrely rare and missing out on it is a huge loss for those who love beauty.
The won rchants present were not short of money, but the imperial glass purple jade is sothing that money can’t buy. How could they not be tempted? Even the n couldn’t help but be eager to see the splendor of the premium purple jade.
The eldest Miss seed to have been prepared, speaking patiently, "There’s no need to rush, everyone. I’ve brought a set of jewelry made from premium purple jade today, crafted by Master Song Yanan. It will fulfill everyone’s desire."
The eldest Miss clapped her hands, and Secretary Xu walked out, carrying a combination lock box. Once she reached the center stage, she opened the box as instructed by the eldest Miss, revealing a delicate wooden box inside.
Amidst the crowd’s anticipation, Secretary Xu opened the wooden box, and a set of exquisite premium purple jade jewelry appeared before their eyes.
Honestly, Lin Tian was seeing this jewelry set for the first ti. Although he had a pendant himself, it paled in comparison to the full set in terms of impact.
Yes, the crowd was completely captivated by the breathtaking jewelry set, especially the female rchants, whose eyes couldn’t hide the admiration—even Wang Wanxi couldn’t help but glance several more tis.
The jewelry made from premium purple jade was brilliant without being ostentatious, mysterious yet noble, the perfect jewelry in a woman’s heart, making diamonds appear tacky in comparison.
The most important aspect is the rarity of premium jadeite, making wearers confident they won’t find soone with the sa piece. The female rchants attending banquets were always wary of wearing the sa outfit or accessories—it was an embarrassing scenario.
But with premium purple jade, that wouldn’t happen. Until now, no set of premium purple jade jewelry had circulated; it was their first encounter today.
"Miss Xiao, is this jewelry set for sale? Na your price." a female rchant in her thirties eagerly asked, having taken a liking to the set.
"Miss Xiao, does Tianxue Jewelry accept custom orders? I’m willing to pay any price," another female rchant in her forties chid in.
Once soone spoke up, the female rchants began chattering all at once, filling the entire hall with won’s voices. It seed n had nothing to do with this, and quite a few male rchants showed helpless smiles.
Many of the female rchants here were their wives, and if they dared to dampen their enthusiasm now, they might end up sleeping on the couch tonight, so the n had no choice but to feign composure, sipping tea and letting the won have their way.
"Ladies, unfortunately, this set of jewelry is not for sale currently. However, if any of you are interested, you can visit Xikou City. We have other premium jadeite items, and Tianxue Jewelry can custom-make unique pieces for you, exclusively yours..." the eldest Miss seized another opportunity to advertise.
Lin Tian watched as the eldest Miss deftly maneuvered among the won, filled with admiration. Even if he hadn’t taught her what to say today, she might still have gotten through today’s ordeal.
However, this was just the beginning; Qian Jin and others had yet to make their move.
Qian Jin felt a surge of anger as he watched. Originally, he intended to incite the crowd against the Xiao Family, but it had turned into a new product launch event for Xiao Family Jewelry. The Bai Family father and son watched with solemn expressions as well.
Qian Jin signaled to the Bai Family, but Bai Yuanhao didn’t react. Instead, Bai Yuze stepped forward, loudly saying, "Miss Xiao, as enticing as premium jadeite is, the Xiao Family seems sowhat underhanded."
