I'm a male god in Liyue

"Grandma Ping's birthday is next Thursday, and everyone is thinking about what kind of gift to give her."

"Yaoyao wants to give her master a beautiful jade bracelet!"

She often saw many ladies at Yuehai Pavilion who looked to be around the same age as her master, and they all wore beautiful jade bracelets on their wrists, so she wanted to give one to her master as well.

Children are innocent and naive; when they see something nice, they always like to say that they will buy it for adults when they grow up.

But Yao Yao is different from them; she is genuinely wealthy.

Her part-time job salary last month, plus the pocket money she saved, totaled nearly 20,000 yuan.

Gan Yu knew this and nodded: "Jade is indeed a good gift, but good jade pieces are very expensive. Last month, a glass lily ornament from Mingxingzhai was auctioned off for a sky-high price of 3000 million."

Diona and Zhu Zi were utterly shocked: "3000 million?! That's a lot of Mora!"

Both Mondstadt and Inazuma think the people of Liyue are incredibly wealthy!

Gan Yu smiled and said, "After all, it was Tianquan Ningguang who made the move."

Everyone immediately began to admire that rich woman.

Except for Shen He.

Shen He simply doesn't care much about money. She quietly served herself another bowl of fruit salad. To her, 3000 million Mora is not as precious as this bowl of fruit salad made by the boss himself.

Yao Yao was a little troubled; it seemed that she hadn't saved enough money.

Xia Zhi's expression was strange.

"Boss, what's wrong with you?"

"Actually, that glass lily ornament... was sold to Mingxingzhai by me."

"!!!"

"Boss, how much did you sell it for?"

"Ten million."

"So many! No, that's not right! It's so cheap! Boss, you're losing money!"

"It's not a loss, it's not like it was an auction, the price is quite reasonable. With that money, I was able to buy this shop."

The object of everyone's admiration immediately changed from the rich woman to the boss.

As if remembering something, Zhu Zi picked up the raccoon-shaped jade pendant hanging from his waist and asked blankly, "This one was also carved by the boss, can it also sell for thirty million?"

"You're overthinking it. The quality of your jade isn't good enough; you can't sell that many pieces."

"Oh……"

"However, if it comes across a knowledgeable and interested person, it might sell for several million."

"!"

After all, this is a perfect finished product meticulously carved by a master craftsman.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Zi suddenly felt that the cute little raccoon in his hand had become incredibly heavy.

She's been carrying millions around on her waist these days. What if she bumps into or scratches something?

Her monthly salary is 2 yuan, which is only 24 yuan a year. It's not even worth the price of one of this raccoon's tails!

Xia Zhi laughed: "Speaking of which, I have a feasible idea. Finished jade artifacts are indeed very expensive, but Yao Yao doesn't need to pursue that. She can buy jade stones and I can help carve them."

Yao Yao's eyes lit up: "Thank you, big brother!"

The little girl is happy; she loves her older brother the most!

"Of course, better quality jade is not cheap either. You can buy jade that hasn't been cut yet, which is very cheap."

"Boss, is this the same kind of stone we bought last time?"

"Ah."

"That depends on luck, right?"

“Miss Gan Yu is here.”

"right!"

Diona had only been there a short time. Although she hadn't witnessed Gan Yu's incredible luck firsthand, she had heard from senior Zhu Zi about her terrifying dominance at the poker table, so she couldn't help but take a second look at Gan Yu out of curiosity.

After dinner, everyone went to Jie Cui Xing together.

The kind-faced, chubby shop owner stood at the door and immediately recognized the three customers who had visited his shop a few days ago.

Xia Zhi's black glasses and Shen He's terrifying strength left a deep impression on him. He remembered that the last time these three came to the store, it was their first time gambling on jade. They bought three stones, one large and two small, but they didn't cut them open. Instead, they took them home, and he didn't know if they had found any jade inside.

"Welcome back again, esteemed guests! Welcome, welcome!"

"Ah."

"Are you all going to try your luck again this time? You must have gotten some good stuff last time!"

"Last time was alright, but this time I brought my friend to take a look."

"Hey! Please choose whatever you like!"

Xia Zhi looked at Gan Yu: "Miss Gan Yu, go ahead."

Gan Yu hesitated for a moment and said softly, "I really don't understand stones."

Xia Zhi laughed and said, "It's okay, just pick any big stone, I trust your luck."

Gan Yu asked uncertainly, "What if it doesn't come out?"

"Then let's buy another one."

"..."

Yao Yao agreed: "That's right, Yao Yao has money! She can buy several!"

Gan Yu shook her head, walked into the shop helplessly, looked around at the rough stones for a long time, and finally chose one.

Xia Zhi had been observing from a "God's-eye view" and couldn't help but twitch slightly at the corner of his eye upon seeing this.

With his expertise in rock analysis, he could tell that the stone Gan Yu had randomly chosen was actually the best quality one in the shop.

The jade hidden inside, though not as large as the snow-white jade he had chosen last time, was far rarer. Truly worthy of being called an "auspicious omen," it was terrifyingly powerful.

"Boss, how much is this?"

"3000 molas."

Yao Yao generously paid the bill.

"Sir, would you like your stone cut?"

"no need."

Gan Yu shook her head and picked up the rough stone from the ground with one hand.

The boss fell silent.

Nowadays, girls look delicate and pretty, but how come they all have such great strength?

Walking along the road, Gan Yu was still a little worried: "What if no jade comes out inside?"

Xia Zhi shook his head: "You should think about what to do if jade comes out of there? How does Yao Yao plan to thank Sister Gan Yu?"

The little girl immediately said, "Give Sister Ganyu a jade bracelet too!"

Xia Zhi smiled and thought Yao Yao was really cute.

Chapter 181 Grandma Ping Isn't a Little Girl

Back in the shop, Xia Zhi took out a carving knife and, under everyone's expectant gaze, began to cut open the rough stone.

A beautiful jade, as radiant as rosy clouds, emerged from the stone.

"so beautiful!"

"Boss, what kind of jade is this?"

"I can't see it, I have to touch it to know... Is this jade as beautiful as rosy clouds?"

"Yes!"

"It should be a rosy jade. This kind of jade is very rare, and a piece this big is even rarer."

"Is it even better than the snow jade you got last time, boss?"

“Naturally, even if this piece of rosy jade were taken directly to Mingxingzhai without being carved, the owner of that shop would definitely be willing to buy it for a million.”

"Wow! Miss Gan Yu is amazing! She picked out such a good thing right away."

"No, I was just a little bit luckier."

Zhu Zi's expression hardened; she was all too familiar with this humble tone!

The boss always says he knows a little bit about this and that, but he actually knows a lot!
