"You silly girl, still laughing. Don't wait until Jiang Tao sells you, and then you count the money for him."
"Pfft, my husband wouldn't even think of selling me."
Xu Li made a silly face at her mother, fully confident in her relationship with Jiang Tao.
Of course, she knew that her mom was just concerned about her.
"My husband bought a piece of bezoar a couple of years ago. It has appreciated, so he's planning to sell it."
"The guy from earlier came all the way from Beijing to buy that bezoar from my husband."
This excuse was something Jiang Tao and Xu Li came up with together; it seemed flawless enough.
Du Yongmei was puzzled, "Bezoar? How much does it weigh to sell for so much money?"
"Not much, just about this big."
Xu Li used her thumb and index finger to show the size of the bezoar.
"Something that small sold for 1.73 million?"
Du Yongmei was a bit unsettled. Even a solid gold bead that size wouldn't fetch 1.73 million!
