Huadu's top luxury bead shop.
"Brother-in-law, this place is really expensive," Ruoshuang stuck out her tongue, though she didn't know much about sandalwood beads, she knew that the Star Moon Bodhi sold here could easily cost tens of thousands, and that there were so worth over a hundred thousand.
"It's fine, your brother-in-law has money in his card."
"Tsk, tsk, I forgot, brother-in-law made a lot from stock trading, heehee." Ruoshuang also relaxed.
Lin Hai nodded: "Yeah, I used so to help Xiaocang pay her debts, now there's still over a million left in there, consider it borrowing it for a bit."
"..."
"I don't want to talk to you at all now." Ruoshuang's expression suddenly read—I'm so unhappy.
Walking into the shop, Ruoshuang's eyes were imdiately attracted by the orange, red, and green sandalwood beads.
"Wow, I didn't expect them to be so beautiful when put together." Ruoshuang exclaid in surprise.
"Hehe, the quality of the sandalwood beads in this shop is good, they should have been worn for so ti," Lin Hai said with a smile.
Ruoshuang imdiately beca even more interested and curiously asked: "Brother-in-law, what does it an to have 'worn' them?"
"It ans they've been frequently handled, and over ti, the surface of the beads changes from rough to smooth. When under the light, they'll reflect a beautiful luster, very beautiful."
"So of those big monks in ancient temples, when they're about to die, they'll sit in ditation or be buried with their Buddha beads. Those beads, having been worn for decades during their prayers and fasting, the older they are, the better their color, and the more valuable they beco."
Lin Hai explained with a smile, recalling when he was in Europe, he had t a noble who deeply admired Eastern Buddhist culture. That fellow wore a set of Buddha beads of excellent quality, which at a glance, were worth at least a million.
"Xiangxiang, this is the place I've been telling you about."
"This shop's Star Moon Bodhi is truly excellent, definitely the best in Huadu."
A man in a neat white suit, slender in build, had a pleasing expression on his face.
Walking in front of him was a lady with a high and mighty deanor; her chin was of the pointed type commonly seen among today's stars, and she was dressed in attention-grabbing branded clothes, thin red lips like cicada wings.
Approaching the shop, the man beca even more attentive: "Xiangxiang, pick whatever you like, as long as you're happy with it."
The woman nodded slightly, but when she spotted Lin Hai, she frowned.
Following Beast Lin's usual deanor, he hardly cared for dressing up.
Today, he was even more casual, dressed in cheap market goods, exuding a strong commoner vibe.
"Is this the high-end place you were talking about?" the woman called Xiangxiang said with displeasure in her voice.
The man quickly assured her: "Xiangxiang, I guarantee, this really is the best sandalwood bead shop in Huadu."
"If it's such a high-end place, how co a beggar can just stroll in?"
Xiangxiang's tone was sharply judgntal, and her eyes glanced towards Lin Hai, oozing with disdain that seeped from her bones.
The man was taken aback for a mont, then followed Xiangxiang's gaze to Lin Hai.
Instantly, his brow furrowed deeply.
"Waiter, call your manager over!"
The man snorted coldly, his gaze at Lin Hai filled with disgust.
Furthermore, there was an inexplicable irritation.
It seed that at this mont, Lin Hai was the culprit behind Xiangxiang's indifference towards him.
The waitress was a woman with equally thin lower lips.
Such people tend to be heartless, harsh, and very snobbish.
Seeing Lin Hai, the waitress's eyebrows furrowed even more, and she hurried over.
"Respected sir, I am very sorry, may I help you with anything?"
The man pointed at Lin Hai and said to the waitress: "I don't want to see him here, make him disappear from my sight imdiately."
What the hell?
Lin Hai and Ruoshuang exchanged bewildered looks, this is truly "getting shot while lying down."
"Sir, miss, this store caters to high-end custors and isn't suitable for you."
The waiter's tone was very indifferent.
"What do you an by that? Is this how you treat custors?" Lin Hai retorted unwillingly.
"Custors?" The waiter sneered, "The cheapest Star Moon Bodhi in this place costs 15,000 yuan, can you afford that?"
Ruoshuang rolled her eyes. Couldn't he see her na-brand clothes?
But when she saw her brother-in-law's outfit, her spirits fell. His get-up was too sloppy, too shabby.
"You looking down on people because of clothes, so what if my brother-in-law is dressed poorly? He can't afford it?"
Naturally, the little sister-in-law stood by her brother-in-law's side, even though she had all kinds of complaints about his dressing internally.
"Miss, do you always talk like this? You really have no manners. Please leave imdiately, or I'll call security."
The female waiter huffed, not deigning to look at Lin Hai and Ruoshuang further.
"Hey, custors are God. You bully God like this and you're not afraid of retribution?" Lin Hai continued to challenge.
At this point, the woman nad Xiangxiang looked at her watch and sighed, "This is a downer. I'm leaving."
"Xiangxiang, don't go."
The man quickly grabbed Xiangxiang's hand and glared fiercely at Lin Hai.
"Xiangxiang, just give one minute, and I'll make those two disappear."
After saying this, the man looked at Xiangxiang with pleading eyes.
"You have forty seconds left," Xiangxiang coldly replied.
"Alright, I'll get it done in thirty seconds."
After speaking, the man straightened his clothes while walking towards Lin Hai.
Seeing this person, Lin Hai inwardly sighed. The guy was good-looking and seed to co from a good background, too bad the woman had no interest in him, and yet, he insisted on debasing himself.
The man pulled out a thick stack of banknotes and threw them at Lin Hai's feet.
"Sir, Xiangxiang doesn't like to interact with lower-class individuals. Please leave. There's 10,000 yuan on the ground for you."
After speaking, the man quickly looked at his watch. Only twenty seconds left.
Lin Hai showed a playful smile and said lightly, "Sorry, but I'm so poor that all I have left is money. 10,000 just isn't interesting to ."
After saying that, he turned to the proud woman and said, "How about this instead, I'll give you 20,000 yuan to disappear from my sight right now, how about it?"
These words made the proud woman look at Lin Hai with a mix of surprise and skepticism.
"Bluffing? 20,000 yuan? You probably couldn't even save up that much money in a year of working without eating or drinking," Xiangxiang scoffed.
The waiter also frowned and urged, "You dead migrant worker, he gave you 10,000 yuan out of respect. Take it and leave quickly; don't delay our business here."
"Tsk tsk, this kind of store, you might as well not run it at all," Lin Hai narrowed his eyes.
"Humph, big talk. You say you're a custor, then buy sothing," the waiter sneered.
She had seen plenty of such losers before, all talk and no action, backing down when it ca ti to pay up.
"Yeah, my brother-in-law's got so much money he could crush you with it," Ruoshuang countered.
Xiangxiang suddenly thought of sothing, speaking coldly to the man pursuing her, "Young Master Ling, you like , right? Then prove it to ."
"Xiangxiang, you're finally giving a chance? Thank you so much, thank you. How should I prove it? I'll do whatever it takes!" Young Master Ling said excitedly.
The woman pointed at Lin Hai and said, "Whatever he buys, you buy. Can't afford it, then get lost. I'm really curious, even lowly people dare to compete with , Dong Jiuxiang."
