“Could it be that this young man, like me, also possesses an extraordinary sixth sense for jade?” Wang Fangtong murmured to himself.

Seeing that Xu Fan on the screen had already asked the sales guide to wrap up the jade pendant, Wang Fangtong hurriedly used his earpiece to issue a command to the guide to keep Xu Fan there, while he straightened his clothes, opened the door of his office, and walked down from the third floor.

Above the second floor of Zangyu Tower, seven or eight buyers were browsing the jade articles, and upon seeing Wang Fangtong come down, they immediately showed ingratiating expressions, cupping their fists in a greeting towards him.

“Boss Wang, long time no see, you look even more spirited.”

“Boss Wang, I’ve just received a batch of top-quality old pit material from Yunnan Province. Would you be interested? You can set the price; I just want to make friends with you, Boss Wang.”

“Boss Wang, that jade Pixiu you recommended last time was incredible. Ever since I wore it, it seems like my wealth luck has picked up. I’ve even landed several large orders recently, and the factory is so busy that I’m considering opening a new branch. My mother has been unwell, so I was hoping you could pick out another jade Buddha that can nourish the body and ward off illness for me, can you?”

“Boss Wang, my son is facing the college entrance exams this year, but the boy just refuses to study, keeping me up night after night. I want to get him a jade pendant of Manjushri Bodhisattva to help him focus and possibly make a push this year to get into a good university, so others can’t label us as mere nouveau riche with no culture.”

……

Upon seeing Boss Wang, the group crowded around Wang Fangtong enthusiastically, presenting him with their various demands.

Wang Fangtong believed he had a strong sense for jade, and could generally feel the basic effects of a piece of jade, such as those that bring wealth, invigorate the mind, aid sleep, and ward off illness, among others. Since most of the jade pieces selected by Wang Fangtong met the inner needs of the customers, the business at Zangyu Tower flourished day by day, allowing Boss Wang to rise from humble beginnings to become the invisible tycoon of Yulou Ancient Town.

However, today Wang Fangtong had a more pressing matter on his mind, so he clasped his hands towards the surrounding customers and said, “I’m deeply grateful that you all could visit Zangyu Tower. You may record your requests on our message notes, and I will carefully select for each of you later. Right now, I have some pressing matters to attend to, so please forgive me for not being able to accompany you.”

“No problem, Boss Wang, please go ahead.”

“As long as you remember my brother’s matter, that’s enough,”

“Boss Wang, let’s have a drink together another day.”

The crowd made way for him, cupping their fists in a farewell as they agreed to Boss Wang’s response.

After all, with so many people here, Boss Wang couldn’t guide each one of them individually to pick items, and some requests, even with the vast collection at Zangyu Tower, might not be entirely fulfilled without Boss Wang sourcing from other places. Therefore, everyone expressed their understanding.

After saying farewell to the customers, Wang Fangtong slowly made his way over to Xu Fan.

Xu Fan also noticed Wang Fangtong making his way through the crowd. He was dressed in a crisp Zhongshan suit, his figure lean, but his spirit was remarkably robust. Although his hair was somewhat gray, it didn’t make him look old at all; instead, it added an air of scholarly elegance and mature grace to his bearing.

Xu Fan’s Divine Sense slowly swept over and surprisingly discovered that Wang Fangtong’s spiritual energy was somewhat stronger than that of an ordinary person.

Even for a typical Martial Artist, it’s quite difficult to enhance mental strength. Mental strength determines a person’s sensory perception of the outside world. While these sensory abilities may differ significantly due to individual differences, everyone with this kind of ability is truly outstanding among their peers.

Some are particularly sensitive to danger, making them suited for the life-threatening career of a bounty hunter; others have an acute sense for mathematics, making them ideal for stock trading; and some even possess an extraordinary affinity with animals, allowing them to work as animal handlers.

Wang Fangtong’s ability was quite special—he had an exceptionally keen sense of jade.

The piece of jade that Xu Fan was interested in was one that not even he could see through. Hence, he felt that Xu Fan must have had some reason unknown to others for choosing that jade pendant, and Wang Fangtong really wanted to ask Xu Fan what exactly he saw in this jade pendant that even he couldn’t fathom.

“Boss Wang!” Zhao Dong, standing behind Xu Fan, greeted Wang Fangtong excitedly upon seeing him.

In Zangyu Tower, everyday affairs were normally handled by Manager Fang; Wang Fangtong, the behind-the-scenes boss, rarely made an appearance.

Therefore, even Zhao Dong, a big shot of Yulou Ancient Town, was thrilled to meet the elusive boss of Zangyu Tower in person.

“Hello,” Wang Fangtong gave Zhao Dong a barely perceptible nod, then paid him no further attention, instead focusing his calm gaze directly on Xu Fan, as if engaging in a conversation among friends.

And Xu Fan met Wang Fangtong’s gaze without showing any signs of intimidation. Most visitors here sought something from Wang Fangtong, so their eyes would usually carry a hint of flattery. But in Xu Fan’s eyes, Wang Fangtong couldn’t detect the slightest ripple of emotion; they were as tranquil as a still lake, unruffled by honor or disgrace.

Wang Fangtong secretly praised Xu Fan’s composure, raising his opinion of the young man. Xu Fan’s self-possession was so formidable that even someone of his advanced age felt it was beyond reach.

“I am Wang Fangtong, the owner of this establishment. May I inquire as to how to address this young friend?” Wang Fangtong finally broke and inquired of Xu Fan with earnest curiosity.

“Greetings, Boss Wang, my name is Xu Fan, and I’m here to make a purchase,” Xu Fan replied indifferently.

“Ha ha, Young Master Xu, many customers here love to have me recommend jade pieces. The jade pendant you’ve chosen is, in my opinion, lacking in refinement, whether in shape, craftsmanship, or the sense of antiquity. Seeing that you’re someone who appreciates jade, I’d like to recommend something finer from our collection. Take a look at this Jade Guanyin beside us. It is not only beautifully crafted, but wearing it can also bring good luck and ward off misfortune. What do you think?” Wang Fangtong, pointing to a beautiful white jade Guanyin in another glass cabinet, said to Xu Fan.

“Sorry, I just want what I’ve picked out. I don’t need anything else,” Xu Fan replied dismissively, without even glancing at the jade Guanyin in the cabinet.
