Chapter 165 - The Man Behind the Successful Woman (1/2)

Lin Momo answered, “Of course, I want to win. I’m not the type to surrender easily.”

“Lin Pingchao had to be fully prepared to propose the compet.i.tion, so, we have to prepare well for it since we want to win,” said Qin Haodong.

“I’ve won dozens of commercial compet.i.tions after I took over the company. I will win this time as well,” said Lin Momo.

“You thought it too easy. It’s different from the ones you experienced. Lin Pingchao is a scheming man. He must have prepared many squalid plans against us.”

“Have he? But grandpa is watching us.”

“Alas!” Qin Haodong sighed, “You lose your wits when it’s about your family. How about this? You take charge of the layout, and leave other things to me.”

Lin Momo answered, “Okay, thank you.”

Qin Haodong smiled. “Not at all. This is what I should do. A great man once said that behind every successful woman, there was a man. I’ll let whoever wrong you pay!”

Having arranged the work, Qin Haodong left for Su Haichuan’s house. Although he had many jade materials of high quality, he needed a good carver to make more money in one day.

It took skill to make a masterwork, and a great carver could improve the quality of the jades and even double its price.

If it had not been masterly carved, the yellow jade chicken which was given to Lin Xiaotian as a gift would only worth two hundred million yuan, however, after Su Haichuan carved it, it was estimated by Qian Duoduo to worth four hundred million yuan, which showed how important the carving work to a jade.

When Qin Haodong arrived at Su Haichuan’s house, the family warmly welcomed him in.

“Doctor Qin, do you like that Jade Chicken I made for you?” asked Su Haichuan.

“Yes, very much.” Qin Haodong praised Su Haichuan for his skill and continued to say, “Master Su, I came here to ask you for a favor today.”

Su Haichuan answered, “You saved our life, Doctor Qin, I’ll do whatever you ask me to.”

Qin Haodong told him the whole thing about the compet.i.tion between Lin Pingchao and Lin Momo and said, “We can’t seek help from the Lin family this time, so, I need your help, Master Su, to make the jade materials I have into goods.”

“No problem. It’s easy.” Speaking of carving jades, Su Haichuan promised Qin Haodong immediately.

Qin Haodong was not surprised Su Haichuan would help him. “Is three days too short for you? Do you need a.s.sistants? We need more than one or two products to do the business.”

“No, the three of my family are enough.” Seeing that Qin Haodong was puzzled by his words, Su Haichuan explained, “My son, Su Xiaolong, has learned all my skills. He is as good as me, and more energetic than me.

“In fact, my son has done half of the work of the yellow jade chicken. I worked on it in the daytime, and he worked at night. Others couldn’t find any difference between them if I don’t tell them.

“And my wife has been with me for so many years; she could carry some a.s.sistant job though not good at carving.”

Qin Haodong replied, “Good. But it has taken you three days to make the jade chicken. I can’t only have one good stuff in my shop three days later no matter how precious it is.”

Su Haichuan shook his head and answered, “It’s totally a different story. The Jade Chicken was the most brilliant thing I’ve ever made, the best of the best, so, I spent a lot of time on it. Give me several hours, I can make you a normally good jade product.

“And with Xiaolong’s help, I can make about a dozen in three days.”

“Quality matters more than quant.i.ty. Jades are high-end goods, a dozen should be enough.” Thinking of this, he nodded and said, “Thank you so much, Master Su.”

To improve their working efficiency, Qin Haodong gave them three Physique-Improving Pills and told them to take one each.

Aftering taking the pill, Su Haichuan and his families were extremly energetic. Without sleeping, they almost spent all their time on carving the jades except for eating some foods.

Meanwhile, Qin Haodong was busy with drawing spells, such as Mind-clearing Spell, Exorcising Spell, Spirit-nouris.h.i.+ng Spell on the finished products. Though those spells are of the lowest magic in the Cultivation World, they were helpful to the normal human beings.

If Su Haichuan’s work were to double the value of the jades, Qin Haodong’s spells would increase the value by ten times.

In Lin Zhigao’s family, he sitted with Zhang Xiuying and Lin Pingchao.

“My son, wasn’t it reckless for you to propose the compet.i.tion to Lin Momo today?” said Zhang Xiuying.

“Reckless?” Lin Pingchao sneered and continued, “Not at all. It was part of my plan. If I haven’t forced grandpa to corner, he would never have given me the chance.

“Now, every family member has heard his words. So, as long as I defeat Lin Momo three days later, grandpa will have to keep his words. I’ll be the president of the group by then.”
