Chapter 438: Moon Jade
"We're rich, we're rich, we're rich!"
Xu Yu looked at the piles of lavish gifts sent by the wealthy people of Xuzhou, and danced excitedly like a madman, with greed in his eyes.
Each of them donated tens or hundreds of billions. There were twenty or thirty wealthy people present, so that meant hundreds of billions!
Xu Yu couldn't believe what he saw. It felt like a dream.
Although the Commander's Mansion has a good foundation and its reputation is no weaker than those wealthy people.
But as the headquarters of the garrison, it can never earn as much as those wealthy people who do business seriously.
Moreover, almost 80% to 90% of the income of the leader's office is used to train the Xuzhou army.
There are very few left!
It can be said that the Commander's Mansion has been living in poverty over the years. Although it has great military power, its property and living standards are actually no different from those of ordinary people.
Xu Yu had never seen so much money in his life, it was hard not to be excited!
"Calm down, aren't you making a fool of yourself?" Lu Shan was also very excited. He tried his best to suppress his inner ecstasy and said to Xu Yu.
"I'm not calm at all. With so much money, aren't you excited? If I weren't calm, I'd be celebrating with champagne."
Xu Yu smiled so hard that his eyebrows were not visible.
He slowly swept his eyes over the wealthy people present, his mouth wide open, as if he was looking at the God of Wealth and gold ingots.
She has to deal with these wealthy people properly in the future!
As long as you have a good relationship with these gods of wealth, you will have a lot of money.
And just then, she saw Wan Shiyin and Wan Hua sitting in the corner.
Can't help but frown?
Are these two also wealthy people from Xuzhou? Why didn't they give any gifts?
No one who came in here came without giving a gift. It was totally unacceptable for these two not to give a gift.
Xu Yu raised his eyebrows, took a pot of tea from the side, and walked towards Wan Shiyin and Wan Hua.
Wan Shiyin didn't even dare to raise her head at this moment!
She was secretly thankful that no one noticed her and Wanhua. As long as she could hold on until the end of the banquet and leave with everyone else, everything would be over and she wouldn't have to be embarrassed.
But she would never have thought that in this extravagant banquet, there happened to be a money-loving Xu Yu.
Xu Yu came to Wan Shiyin with tea in his hand, smiling, and poured a cup of tea for Wan Shiyin and Wan Hua.
Then he smiled and asked, "You two, are you satisfied with the food prepared by our Commander's Mansion?"
"Satisfied, of course satisfied!"
Wan Shiyin picked up the tea, took a sip, and nodded hurriedly.
How could she dare to say that she was dissatisfied? Being able to sit at the same table and enjoy a meal with these top wealthy people in Xuzhou was the luckiest thing she had ever had in her life.
She didn't dare to say anything because the gift she prepared was shameful!
"That's good!"
Xu Yu smiled and nodded, then continued, "If you are satisfied, then why are everyone else offering gifts, but you haven't made any move? Of course, I don't mean to force you to give a gift. After all, giving or not giving is a personal choice."
"But you should know that this tribute banquet is to celebrate our Commander's Mansion's destruction of the Grandmaster's Mansion, the killing of Ye Tianzong, and the elimination of a major scourge from Xuzhou. This is a great event that everyone in the world should celebrate. Aren't you two happy?"
Xu Yu has completely put Wan Shiyin in a difficult position. If Wan Shiyin dares to express her displeasure, it would be equivalent to making things difficult for the entire Xuzhou.
But if you want to express happiness, you have to give gifts!
Otherwise, why be happy?
What a false joy!
Besides, countless famous wealthy people present here have given gifts, so how can it be justified if Wan Shiyin doesn’t give one?
If she walks out of the door, I'm afraid there will be no place for Wan Shiyin in the whole Xuzhou.
Sure enough, the twenty or thirty wealthy people present at this moment became quiet, attracted and looked towards Wan Shiyin.
Why is it this woman?
How did a small fry from the Cloud City Black Gold Merchant Alliance get in? The richest man, Jiang Ling, recognized Wan Shiyin at a glance and couldn't help but frown.
Xu Zifeng also recognized Wan Shiyin, but did not say anything.
Wan Shiyin's face looked extremely ugly!
If I don’t give some gifts today, I’m afraid I won’t be able to get out. There is no way out.
"Don't you have anything prepared? If not, you can call and have someone send a gift over." Xu Yu said with a playful smile.
"Yes, I'm ready!"
Wan Shiyin gritted her teeth. If she didn't send him off, she would definitely die. She had no choice.
Holding onto the last bit of luck, Wan Shiyin took out the gift box containing the jade pendant from her arms, handed it to Xu Yu, and said palely: "This is the gift I prepared."
"That's it?" Xu Yu lowered his head and looked at the palm-sized gift box with a look of surprise.
What the hell is this?
How much is it worth for something this small?
However, it is not ruled out that there are some rare treasures, which, although small, are priceless.
Everyone present here is a top-tier wealthy person and should not be underestimated.
So Xu Yu took it and opened the gift box, and a crescent-shaped jade pendant inside appeared in front of everyone.
"What is this?"
One of the rich men burst out laughing, and the tea in his mouth sprayed out.
The others also burst into laughter.
There was no one present who was shortsighted. Anyone could tell that the jade pendant was made of the same rough-edged jade found on the street, worth nothing, a few hundred yuan at best. How dare someone bring something like this to the Commander's Mansion and bring disgrace to the public?
Isn't this treating the Commander's Office and the wealthy people in Xuzhou as idiots?
Seeing everyone's reaction, Xu Yu immediately realized that this was garbage. His face instantly darkened. He stared at Wan Shiyin coldly and asked, "What is this? How much is it worth? Please give me an answer."
Wan Shiyin's face flushed with shame, and she wished she could find a hole in the ground to crawl into.
She said with shame, "This is called Yuehua Jade. My ex-husband gave it to me as a gift when I got married. He said it was worth a lot of money. I thought it was the only valuable thing I had, so I gave it to you as a gift."
"Your ex-husband? Who is your ex-husband?"
Xu Yu was a little overwhelmed. She felt that this woman was a clown who was here to make a fool of herself, and it seemed that she was making fun of herself.
If this woman can't explain it clearly, she will break Wan Shiyin's legs today.
"His name is Su..."
Wan Shiyin's face flushed as she was about to say Su Ming's name.
But he could only say the word "Su".
Wan Hua, standing next to him, couldn't help it any longer. He stood up and said through gritted teeth, "Sister, stop talking. Isn't it embarrassing enough? Even if you say the name of that loser, what's the use? None of these big guys here have ever heard of that loser's name. This is just a piece of junk jade pendant. I told you so."
Hearing this, Xu Yu understood and immediately revealed a look of contempt and sneer: "So what do you mean, bringing a piece of junk as a gift? Are you here to make fun of our Commander's Mansion?"
The other wealthy people also grinned, looking like they were enjoying a show.
However, at this moment, the head of the guards of the Commander's Mansion quickly walked to the center of the banquet, came in front of the richest man Jiang Ling, and whispered in Jiang Ling's ear: "Mr. Richest Man, Prince Su wants to see you. He is in the room behind the screen!" "This?"
Jiang Ling almost cried out in surprise.
He quickly covered his mouth and asked in a low voice in shock, "You said King Su wants to see me?"
"Yes, go over there quickly!"
"Okay, okay, okay..."
Jiang Ling was flattered and nodded repeatedly. He turned around quickly and walked quickly towards Su Ming's room.
In the room, Su Ming leaned back in his chair with a calm expression.
Although he was not planning to attend the banquet, when he saw Wan Shiyin entering the Commander's Mansion, he still wanted to see what Wan Shiyin was trying to do in Xuzhou.
As a result, I witnessed a scene like this!
If nothing is done, Wan Shiyin will probably be ruined today and won't be able to hold her head up high in the future.
Besides, Xu Yu was a master at playing pranks on people! If things went wrong, Wan Shiyin wouldn't be able to get out alive.
