Chapter 950 Heliotrope
"Probably a few thousand dollars at best," Aaron replied.
This wasn't just a random figure; he spoke seriously-the value of Heliotrope is quite low, and this particular piece looked rather unremarkable. In fact, it looked quite poor!
Hearing Aaron's estimate, Grant erupted into laughter. "Ha ha ha..."
After he finished laughing, he smugly turned to Daniel. "Country boy! Did you hear what Aaron just said? He claims this Heliotrope is worth several thousand! To be fair, I won't make it difficult for you. If you want to sell it to me, I could buy it for a thousand."NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.
“Grant, just because Aaron says my Heliotrope is worth a few thousand, does that mean it's only worth that? Have you considered that Aaron might be mistaken, or perhaps he just doesn't understand the true value of this stone? But it's also possible that Aaron saw immediately that this Heliotrope is worth at least two hundred thousand, and he's trying to cheat you by claiming it's worth only a few thousand!"
When Daniel said this, Aaron fumed, practically seeing smoke come out of his nose. He pointed an angry finger at Daniel. “What are you saying, country boy? Are you suggesting I'm trying to cheat you?!"
"Absolutely!" Daniel nodded, as if it were the most obvious thing in the world.
“Aaron, my Heliotrope is definitely worth at least two hundred thousand! No matter where I sell this stone at an auction, it'll fetch at least that much. Yet you're claiming it's only worth a few thousand? Isn't that a scam? What do you think?"
"You... You're just talking nonsense!"
Aaron pointed at the cut open original stone, looking as though he knew exactly how to counter Daniel "You say this Heliotrope is worth two hundred thousand. Where are you getting that idea? I think you're just afraid to admit you're losing, and you don't want to kneel before me to admit defeat!"
"It's worth two hundred thousand!"
Daniel picked up the Heliotrope. “Get me a basin and two bottles of vodka!"
"Sir, we have both the basin and vodka, but there will be a charge. The service fee and vodka cost a total of ten thousand dollars. You need to pay in advance."
"Ten thousand for vodka that's normally priced at about fifteen hundred? You're out of your mind!"
"Sir, we're at the Capital Hotel-the
best five-star hotel in D.C. The vodka
is certainly pricier than most places
If that's too much for you, you can opt out or switch to beer. The
e
cheapest beer is a hundred dollars a
bottle."
Hearing this, Daniel nearly spat blood. "What? One hundred dollars for the cheapest beer? Are you crazy?"
"Sir, we're not crazy. This is just the
pricing at Capital Hotel. If you find it too expensive, you're free to walk away. We don't force o buy-it's all voluntary here!
