"You did very well," An Yiqing said with a smile, nodding in approval as she watched the girl.
The pretty young maid felt extremely honored by her boss’s praise.
"The boss? Nice! So you are the owner of this shop!" The plump woman perked up upon hearing their conversation, raising her voice and shaking her ample flesh as she spoke, "I bought fake goods from your shop! Are you trying to deny it? Let me tell you, if you don’t give me an explanation today, I won’t leave!" With that, she actually dragged a chair over and sat down at the entrance.
As the commotion inside the store grew louder, more and more people gathered at the entrance to watch the excitement. The expression on the plump woman’s face became even more smug. Once this act was over, she could go home and enjoy her ease!
Seeing the not-so-obvious greed in the fat woman’s eyes, An Yiqing’s clear, watery eyes flickered subtly.
"Madam, since you insist that this was purchased from Yuyuanzhai, let’s check the product," An Yiqing said, her voice completely steady and calm.
"Check the product? How?" The plump woman was startled. Why didn’t that person tell her there would be a check?
An Yiqing laughed lightly, elegantly walking to the center of the hall.
"Ladies and gentlemen, to prevent the unscrupulous from exploiting Yuyuanzhai’s reputation for illegal activities, every piece of jade processed in our store undergoes a mysterious procedure. This is something only Manager Zhang and I are aware of," An Yiqing stretched out her hand and randomly took a type of ice jade bracelet from the counter, showing it to everyone, "There is a special symbol stamped on a certain part of our jade ware. This symbol is invisible to the naked eye, and even a microscope cannot detect it. Only the special electric light stick of our store can reveal it. Just ."
An Yiqing took out something that looked like a flashlight from the counter, turned it on, and under a flash of white light, the jade bracelet in her hand suddenly displayed the three big characters of "Yuyuanzhai"!
"Wow! Is there really such a technology?"
"The ingenuity of this store is really clever, this way they can prevent fake products a hundred percent!"
"It seems Yuyuanzhai is indeed a conscience merchant!"
Hearing everyone’s high praise, a flicker of panic crossed the plump woman’s eyes. Her eyeballs rolled around, and a bellyful of bad ideas surged forth again.
"Even if there is an anti-counterfeiting mark, it doesn’t prove anything! What if you deliberately didn’t stamp it on this fake good!"
At the plump woman’s outcry, everyone suddenly felt that what she said made some sense.
After hearing this, An Yiqing gave a slight smile and cast a cool gaze at the woman, making her scalp tingle.
"Ladies and gentlemen, when Yuyuanzhai opened, I said that our store would never sell fake goods. If anyone here does not believe it, they are welcome to invite a professional appraiser. All of the goods in the store can be inspected, and if a single fake item is found, Yuyuanzhai will immediately close down for good!"
No sooner had An Yiqing spoken than it was as if a bomb had gone off, silencing all the whispering spectators.
Everyone was quite shocked; Yuyuanzhai’s young owner was really generous to make such a promise!
You should know that almost every jade store has a certain number of substandard products, which are not considered fake but are pieces of broken jade put together using special techniques or processed using bleach and other chemicals. Such jade, if crafted well, can completely deceive consumers.
Just how confident must the owner of Yuyuanzhai be to make such a statement?
"Madam, you’ve made a scene, and we’ve checked the goods, so now please tell us where you got these fake goods from!"
