The city's number one tycoon

Chapter 361

Amidst the bewildered gazes of the crowd, Ma Yunteng and Ma Xiaomeng quickly sprang into action.

"Brother, why are they all staring at us?" Ma Xiaomeng asked curiously. Ma Xiaomeng didn't recognize US dollars; she only remembered using similar writing paper before.

"They think we're poor because we fold origami cranes using rough paper," Ma Yunteng said casually.

"Hehe, bro, you're so talented!" Ma Xiaomeng felt that Ma Yunteng's idea of folding origami cranes from scrap paper was incredibly clever.

"Brother, this spot looks ugly, I want to cut it off," Ma Xiaomeng suddenly said, pointing to a folded origami crane and looking up at it earnestly.

"Go ahead and cut it! Here are the scissors! Be careful not to cut your hand!" Ma Yunteng also thought that the two wings of the origami crane looked a bit heavy. The wings of an origami crane should definitely be lighter, so it had to be cut!

Guh...

Those present couldn't help but swallow hard!

As the two men kept trimming the US dollar bills, they each felt a pang of pain in their hearts!

Damn... They just cut up a hundred-dollar bill like that! They just smashed up a helicopter worth tens of millions of dollars like that!

What does money mean to you?

Garbage!

"Hehe, folding paper cranes with US dollars, that's interesting!" Li Xiaoyao's father was impressed by Ma Yunteng's wealth when he saw this, but this event was related to whether his son could directly enter Qing Teng No. 1 Middle School.

He wasn't about to give up so easily.

“These US dollars are only worth a hundred dollars each. When converted to RMB, they’re still not as valuable as mine. Besides, look at the origami cranes they’ve folded; they’re not pretty at all!” Li Xiaoyao’s father said, deliberately picking a fight.

“Yeah, it’s just US dollars. We can exchange them at the bank. It’s not that creative,” another parent said, disagreeing.

"That's right. Even if it's creative, it's only creative in terms of materials. The judges won't just look at the material composition. Shape and color are also very important scoring points. Everyone's folding is better than theirs."

"Indeed, the origami cranes they folded look so stiff. Look at ours, they're so colorful and lifelike."

Hearing the parents' words, the judges kept shaking their heads at the positions of Ma Yunteng and Ma Xiaomeng, clearly indicating that they did not intend to give them high scores.

Although these parents were nitpicking, the points they made were quite valid.

These origami cranes folded from US dollars are really not very pretty.

Hearing these words and looking at the origami crane in her hand, Ma Xiaomeng couldn't help but frown and pout.

"It doesn't look good, does it?"

Ma Yunteng chuckled and pulled out his phone again: "Send me two boxes of gold and diamonds!"

Ten minutes later, the jewelry store staff came over carrying two boxes, one containing gold and the other containing diamonds.

"Sir, your gold and diamonds have been delivered. Please make payment!" the two staff members said to him.

"How much?" Ma Yunteng asked.

"Twenty million!" the staff member replied.

"So cheap?" Ma Yunteng felt it was too cheap.

"Excuse me, sir, this is already the best gold and diamonds in our store. Since you have become our VIP, we have specially arranged two craftsmen for you, who are at your disposal at any time," the staff member said earnestly. The two craftsmen were specially sent by the store manager to serve Ma Yunteng.

"Oh, let them in!" Ma Yunteng nodded in satisfaction.

Two jewelry store craftsmen quickly entered the classroom. "Sir, what can I do for you?"

"Hey... see these origami cranes?" Ma Yunteng held up an origami crane and said in a serious tone, "Golden up my wings and studded with diamonds for my eyes!"

What!

Everyone felt like their brains had short-circuited! They were all staring at Ma Yunteng in disbelief!

Gilding the wings?

To put diamonds in your eyes?

"Holy shit! Holy shit!"

"This... is just too much!"

"Haha! Is this still a paper crane? This is a work of art!"

"I wish I could have one!"

The jewelry store staff were also completely bewildered as they looked at Ma Yunteng; it was the first time they had ever encountered a customer like this!

These craftsmen are usually dedicated to making custom jewelry for their clients, but now they're going to gild and set diamonds on origami cranes!

Is this some kind of joke?

Half an hour later.

All sorts of origami crane samples were laid out before them for judging, but of all the origami cranes, they only looked at one of them!

That is, the origami crane that Ma Yunteng made, gilded and studded with diamonds!

Under the lights, the origami crane's two wings shimmered with luxurious gold, especially the diamonds in the crane's eyes, which reflected a dazzling light that almost blinded everyone!

Everyone felt that this was no longer just a paper crane, but an extremely luxurious work of art!

Moreover, the two craftsmen also gave a preliminary estimate that the cost of raw materials alone for each of these origami cranes they make would be five million!
