Chapter 198 Acquisition
"Who is she? A young lady?"
"When did such a talented person appear in Shanghai?"
Lin Xi nodded slightly, looked at Wang Fugui who was lying there like a dead dog, slowly stood up, stopped in front of him, looked down at him, and a slight smile appeared on her lips.
"No one has ever been able to renege on their debt to me before; you are the first."
"What, do you want to restrict my personal freedom? Whether I leave or not is none of your business."
"Leave? Sure, 15 billion, not a penny less. You dare try to take less?" Lin Xi's tone was somewhat cold.
"Miss, I really don't have that much money. I didn't mean to run away. I can't even come up with 10 billion, let alone 15 billion. This is going to kill me," Wang Fugui said pitifully, his eyes flickering.
"Asking for 15 billion yuan all at once is really excessive. Isn't this pushing people to their doom?"
"Yeah, why take it so seriously? It's just a bet. She didn't lose anything. Let's just let it go."
"Just a little something is fine. It's really not right to pressure her like that. She doesn't seem like someone who's short of money."
A woman nearby couldn't stand it anymore and launched into a tirade.
"Are you guys out of your minds? He brought it over himself and insisted on gambling, and now that he's lost, he can't afford to lose?"
"That young lady already gave him a discount, but he still took advantage of it. He's spoiled."
"What do you mean no interests were damaged? The store manager ran away, and she directly lost over a billion yuan. You want us? You don't want this money?"
"us......"
Those people wanted to argue back, but they found it difficult to say the word "no."
"Hmph." The older woman snorted mockingly upon seeing this.
Just kidding, you think you can mess with her?
“We didn’t sign a betting agreement. So what if I don’t pay? I don’t believe you would actually dare to break the law and stop me.”
Wang Fugui, in a fit of despair, struggled to his feet, a dismissive expression on his face.
At worst, he can just quit this industry. In any case, he definitely won't give that much money; it's enough to cover his entire fortune.
He took a few steps as a symbolic gesture.
"Miss..."
Lin Xi reached out to stop him, her smile widening, tinged with cruelty.
Seeing that the shadowy figure didn't stop him, Wang Fugui grew bolder and tugged at the person next to him.
"Old Hu, let's go."
As he was about to leave the store, he noticed that there were no footsteps following him, which he found strange.
He quickly turned his head, and a scene that shocked him appeared before his eyes.
Old Hu was standing in front of Lin Xi with his head down, repeatedly apologizing and begging for forgiveness.
"Sister Xi, I was blind to his greatness. I'm not with him. Please don't hold it against me. I was just doing my job for money."
Sister Xi? She's Sister Xi?
Wang Fugui's face began to break out in a cold sweat. The fates of the Liu family and the Wu family in the past few days seemed to flash before his eyes.
So that's Sister Xi. No wonder they call her Miss and casually give her such valuable gifts.
He should have guessed it long ago; how could he have been deceived?
He hurriedly ran over, knelt down in front of Lin Xi, and reached out to grab the hem of her skirt, but Ye Jinran blocked him, and a cold gaze swept over him.
Wang Fugui could only awkwardly withdraw his hand. "Sister Xi, I'll transfer the money to you right now. Please don't hold it against me. Just let me go like I'm nothing, okay? I really know I was wrong. Please forgive me."
"Oh my god, Sister Xi, could it be the Sister Xi from the internet?"
"That rich Sister Xi? It's probably just a coincidence of names."
"I think it should be the same person, after all, they are both so generous."
"No way, don't all the 'Sister Xi's' on the internet have photos? It's just the same name. Besides, none of the 'Sister Xi's' on the internet are as good-looking as this 'Sister Xi,' and she's so rich too."
"That's true. After all, Sister Xi hasn't come out to refute it, so I guess that's it."
"If Sister Xi on the internet looked like an angel, the entire internet would crash."
"Hey? Do you guys remember when the last time the network crashed?"
"Isn't that the same Moon Goddess from last time? Uh, I get it, you mean they're the same person?"
The person who spoke earlier nodded seriously.
"But I think Sister Xi looks even better in real life than in the video. She completely transcends the definition of beauty in this world."
......
The crowd below was engaged in a lively, hushed discussion.
"You only get one chance, and unfortunately, you didn't seize it." Lin Xi's voice was slightly cold, but her tone remained unchanged.
"Take that stone with you, let's go." After saying this, Lin Xi left without even glancing at him again.
Wang Fugui collapsed to the ground, his eyes filled with terror.
He's really finished now!
Whenever Sister Xi falls silent, that's when she's about to take action.
"This guy is really pitiful. He didn't keep his word and even bullied Sister Xi."
"Seriously, Sister Xi is so cool! Even as a girl, I adore her."
"It feels like I'm becoming an accessory to Sister Xi."
......
"Beichuan, I've transferred 10 billion to you. You need to acquire the largest jewelry store within two days. I'll have someone transport the store's prized possession to you then."
"Okay, Sister Xi."
After watching Lin Xi hang up the phone, Ye Jinran couldn't help but speak, her tone somewhat unnatural, "Actually, our family owns the largest jewelry store in the entire Shanghai, so..."
Lin Xi looked momentarily taken aback. "This..."
"But it's okay, what's mine is yours, I can give it to you so you don't have to spend extra money."
"You forgot? The one thing I have plenty of is money." Lin Xi smiled nonchalantly.
She then dialed the number again.
"Beichuan, take a look and see if the biggest jewelry store belongs to the Ye family?" Lin Xi's voice was cold and clear.
"Indeed."
How much are they asking over there?
"8 million, but that's just a tentative price; it can be negotiated much lower..."
Before Song Beichuan could finish speaking, Lin Xi's cool voice came through the microphone.
"I'll transfer another 20 billion to you. You can give them 20 billion. Keep the remaining 10 billion for your own use. If you need more, just let me know." Lin Xi finished speaking quickly and hung up the phone.
Song Beichuan froze, stunned, upon hearing the dial tone from his phone, unable to react.
What does this mean? Is this going against the grain by raising prices?
He has never done this before; instead of trying to lower the price, he has increased the price for the other party.
This is the first time I've ever seen anything like it.
However, Song Beichuan still completed Lin Xi's request very quickly.
