Chapter 118 Two pieces without a block, that's ten thousand?
Chapter 118 Two pieces without a block, that's ten thousand?
"Ahem, well, it's alright, not expensive."
Lu Ran definitely couldn't reveal the real price, otherwise his parents would definitely chase after him and beat him.
Although the elderly couple were talking about their son, they were happily unpacking the gifts he had given them.
Especially Wen Youli.
Lu Ran gave her husband a car. Although she was very happy for him, she was actually a little jealous.
Her husband gave her a gift but she didn't; how could a mother not have any thoughts about it?
Even if it's a cheap gift, as long as my son means it, that's enough.
Wen Youli waited all day but didn't see the gift her son had prepared for her. She was actually quite jealous, but she didn't show it.
Fortunately, she didn't spoil this brat for nothing; he even prepared a gift for her as well.
Moreover, there are two items: a watch and a pair of jade bracelets.
The jade bracelet was something Wen Youli had always wanted to buy, but couldn't bring herself to buy.
Although there are cheaper options, she really loves jade, and she'd rather not wear anything of average quality than settle for something inferior.
Unexpectedly, her son remembered her preferences and didn't forget his mother.
Her husband has a car, she has a jade bracelet, and her son shows no favoritism.
Even if the jade bracelet is inexpensive, Wen Youli will be very happy. She personally doesn't want to settle for wearing something of poor quality, but if it's a gift from her son, she'll like it no matter how bad it is.
Wen Youli slowly unpacked the jade bracelet.
The more you unpack it, the more luxurious the packaging becomes.
"Xiao Ran, how much did you pay for this bracelet? With this kind of packaging, the bracelet must have been expensive!"
Lu Ran laughed and said, "Haha, well, it's not very expensive, just a few hundred."
Wen Youli glared at her son.
"Several hundred? Do you think your mother is stupid? You might not even be able to buy this packaging box for several hundred."
As the last layer of packaging for the jade bracelet was removed.
When Wen Youli saw the jade bracelet clearly, she was completely stunned.
"This, this looks like glass-type jadeite, and it's even imperial green..."
Lu Ran thought to himself, "Oh no."
He took out all the explanatory cards that could prove the jade's authenticity in advance, thinking he could fool his mother by asking for a price of several thousand or tens of thousands.
Unexpectedly, his mother was more knowledgeable than he thought, and she could tell the material of the bracelet with her naked eye.
Lu Ranqian laughed and said, "Uh, haha, Mom, you must have misread it. This is just something I picked out randomly. It only costs a few thousand yuan. Although it's a bit pricey, it's worth it even if it's expensive, since it's for you, Mom."
Wen Youli didn't have time to pay attention to her son for the time being.
I carefully held the bracelet in my hand and examined it.
"Changshu, give me some light, use that bright flashlight in the room."
"it is good."
Lu Ran was sweating profusely. His mother seemed very professional; he probably couldn't hide it anymore.
Soon Lu Changshu came out with a flashlight and, with his wife's prompting, shone it on various parts of the bracelet.
"It's almost certainly the real thing."
Wen Youli carefully placed the bracelet into the box and looked at her son.
"Xiao Ran, tell Mom honestly, how much did you pay for this bracelet?"
"To be honest, your mom does know a bit about this."
Lu Ran scratched his head: "Uh, well, it's only two hundred."
"Two hundred yuan? You think you can fool your mother!"
"Mom, I didn't say 'short'."
Wen Youli gasped.
"Two hundred is not a dollar, so it must be ten thousand?"
Lu Ran nodded.
He did indeed specifically choose the best and most expensive one to buy, which cost two million.
"Xiao Ran, you..."
Wen Youli was unable to describe her current feelings in words.
She never imagined that she would have the opportunity to touch such an exquisite jade bracelet that she had only ever seen in video materials before.
Moreover, it wasn't just about touching it; this bracelet was a gift from her son, so she directly owned it.
"Mom, I bought Dad a Range Rover, so your gift can't be any less nice. It has to be at least as good as Dad's."
Lu Changshu swallowed hard.
"Youli, do you mean this pair of bracelets is equivalent to a Range Rover?"
Wen Youli nodded: "That's about it."
Although Lu Changshu was very shocked.
But he knew how much his wife loved jade, and he was sure she would love this top-quality jade bracelet.
So he was quite satisfied with the gift his son had prepared for his wife.
He could never afford to let his wife wear such a fine bracelet on his own, but luckily he has a remarkable son.
"Youli, since it's your son's good intention, don't blame him."
"Try wearing it."
Lu Ran gave his father a grateful look.
"Yes, Mom, you should try it on."
Wen Youli pursed her lips: "It's so expensive, I'd better find a box and lock it up. What if I break it while wearing it on my wrist!"
"Mom, bracelets are meant to be worn. Otherwise, why would we buy them? We can just buy new ones if they break!"
The couple glared at their son.
"You brat, how long has it been and you've already become so arrogant? Such a big mouth, and you even say you'll break it and buy a new one? Did your money grow on trees?"
"Ahem, um, never mind."
Having accidentally uttered his motto, Lu Ran quickly shut up, after all, the person opposite him was his parents, not a stranger.
It all started with the bracelet.
The couple behind them were shaking as they took apart the watch.
"Xiao Ran, this watch box doesn't look cheap either. You didn't spend a lot of money again, did you?"
"Dad, Mom, of course not. Do you really think I'm a multi-millionaire? Mom, your watch costs eight hundred, and Dad, yours costs a thousand. Watches aren't selling well these days, so the stores make the boxes very pretty."
Fortunately, the couple didn't know much about watches, so they didn't doubt Lu Ran's words.
"This watch is so beautiful, and the craftsmanship is so exquisite."
Lu Changshu glanced at what his wife was holding, then at what he was holding.
He nodded and said, "It is indeed exquisite. Old Chang has a watch worth 130,000. I've admired it from afar a few times before, and it seems not as good as the one I have!"
"Yes, Dad, the pricing of watches is very vague. You can't just judge the price by your appearance."
"Those that don't look very good might be from a certain brand or a collaboration with a certain master. Even if the materials are average, they can still sell for a sky-high price."
"On the contrary, some products that only focus on quality, do not do marketing or collaborations, are good in all aspects, and are actually very cheap."
Lu Changshu nodded upon hearing this: "Yes, that makes sense."
Lu Changshu put the watch on his wrist and looked at it from several different angles.
He laughed and said, "Everyone says that a man must wear a watch when he goes out, but I'm not really interested in that. However, I feel that wearing one does add a bit of style to my appearance."
Looking at her husband's narcissistic expression, Wen Youli laughed and said, "Well, now you have a luxury car and a watch, and you're not bad looking either. A middle-aged man like you is sure to attract young girls when you go out."
"Hey, how did we suddenly get onto this topic? Our son is still alive!"
"What? I was right, you really intend to?"
No, absolutely not.
···
The next day.
Lu Changshu drove to the county town to apply for the necessary permits in a cheerful mood, although he was reluctant to let his son invest so much money in doing business in the village.
But since his son insisted on doing it, he didn't try to dissuade him and instead gave his full support. He got up early this morning to contact his classmates and go to the county town to apply for the necessary permits.
"Hey, isn't this Lao Lu? Where are you going so early in the morning? It's good to have a good son. This Range Rover looks awesome. I'll get one and drive it in a couple of days."
As they passed a villa, a middle-aged man called out to Lu Changshu.
The man wore a gold necklace and a watch, and lived in a villa; he was clearly a wealthy man in the village.
