174 Old Fox
Gu Jue Tun’s eyes widened. He thought Vivian did not know what was good for her. He had already given her a way out and she still did not give up. He would not return the money he had received. If she wanted to blow up the matter, then so be it. When the manager came, he would say that he was only doing this for the sake of the market’s reputation. He did not believe that he could not deal with this little girl!

Gu Jue Tun immediately rushed to speak. The main topic was naturally that the people from Gold and Jade Jewelry had tarnished the market’s reputation.

Wu Dan was about 50 years old, wearing a traditional M Country with a bag on his head. After hearing the report from her subordinate, she did not rush to make a decision. She looked at Vivian and asked, “May I ask if your company has any explanation for this?”

Vivian’s explanation was nothing more than repeating what Gu Jue Tun had said, and then she looked at Wu Dan. “Manager Wu, to be honest, you’re just providing a trading place, and now you’re even implicated by those who made the counterfeit. We should be on the same side, and cleaning the Jade market is good for both of us.”

Vivian had first mentioned the Jade trade fair, which was a hint to Wu Dan that as a third party, they did not need to get involved in this mess.

Wu Dan understood what she meant. He glanced at Vivian and saw the tall bodyguards surrounding her tightly. Wu Dan guessed that this woman might have some kind of background. After all, she dared to come here to restock when she was still pregnant.

Wu Dan glanced at the crowd, especially the foreigners, who were all waiting for his answer. He understood they were protecting Vivian on the surface, but in fact, they were also protecting the interests of the foreigners.

Wu Dan thought about the recent trend of counterfeit goods in the market and didn’t want to care about it. There were individuals and gangs who committed crimes. Who knew who was behind those gangs? If it involved the armed forces in Northern Myanmar, he would be in trouble. After weighing the pros and cons, he made a decision.

Wu Dan was no longer as expressionless as before. Instead, she looked at Vivian with a slight smile. “Miss Vivian, you must be joking. No one can guarantee that we can appraise raw jade stones. We’re just helping to manage the venue and maintain order. We don’t have the ability to appraise.”

“Everyone knows that we’ve always been a trading place, not a high-end department store that has to be responsible for quality sales. I understand what everyone is trying to say. Someone must have fabricated something of such high value. It’s impossible to prevent it. I understand that you all want to communicate in private.”

“We won’t interfere with such exchanges and counseling. As long as it’s not an act of fighting or deliberately causing trouble, we’ll allow it. We’ll treat everyone equally, whether they’re local or foreign.”

The development of the situation was not far from Vivian’s expectations. As the market trade manager, he was already a sly old fox at this age. He must not want to offend either side, so it was best to be fair.

They didn’t care what kind of goods were brought in, and they didn’t care how the seller thought of ways to deal with the counterfeiters. They just had to collect the stall fees and provide the venue. This was much easier than taking care of these trivial matters. They had to maintain this balance, collect the money without offending anyone. After all, no matter which side, they would need to use his venue.

At this point, even his boss had made a decision, and Gu Jue Tan could not change it. He also despised his leader for being so timid that he could not even be more firm in his own territory!
Thinking of the fees that he would have to return immediately, Gu Jue Tun glared at Vivian and left the scene with Wu Dan.

The foreigners around them immediately applauded, and many of them took the initiative to make friends with Vivian.

A blonde, curly-haired man who was about 30 years old said, “Miss Vivian, our small company is used to double standards here. They don’t dare to do the same to the big companies abroad. I’ve only come here twice a year, and I’ll stay for a few days each time. I’m used to tolerating them. Now that I see you arguing with me, I feel that the anger in my chest for so many years has finally dissipated.”
