Chapter 119 Regret on the Spot

Old Chen felt that Lin Xi was impetuous, which was totally different from his master's steady character, so he followed up and said, "That's right, I think what this little girl said is right, it's just ten taels of silver, it's nothing."

Feng Miao pondered for a moment before nodding in agreement.

Old Chen smiled and said that he had the money for today's tea.

"Wait a minute," Lin Xi said, "Words are useless without any proof. What if you refuse to pay?"

Old Chen looked at Lin Xi with amusement and compromised, "With so many eyes watching and ears listening, can I still deny my debt?"

As he spoke, Lao Chen pulled over a boss, who said, "Don't worry, we are all listening. If Lao Chen really loses, we will take care of the matter for you."

Lin Xi pouted, looking unhappy.

Feng Miao said calmly, "Since the bosses are guaranteeing me, I have nothing to worry about. I think the bosses in Xucheng are trustworthy."

Old Chen nodded quickly, "That's right, our boss in Xucheng is the most honest."

After a short break, the second half officially began.

Everyone was brought into a large courtyard with many huge raw stones placed against the wall.

This is the climax of the game, the real highlight.

Lin Xi saw the eagerness to try in everyone's eyes. She also found that some bosses had one or two more people around them, who she guessed were experts in identifying stones.

"Boss, today's batch of goods are all new to us. You can choose whatever you want." The waiter said, "The rules are the same as before, one hundred taels of silver per piece, no matter the size."

Everyone present at this moment put in all their efforts to examine each stone carefully.

Only Feng Miao and the other two sat in their seats without moving at all. Old Chen buried his head in the pile of rocks, as if he had forgotten the bet he had made with Lin Xi and the others.

About a quarter of an hour later, a boss came forward and chose a medium-sized stone.

As long as you pay the money, a master will come on site to cut the stone. It's a heart-pounding experience to decide whether you waste a hundred taels or successfully cut out jade.

Xiao Yongyan whispered in Lin Xi's ear, "Can you tell if there is jade in this stone?"

Of course Lin Xi couldn't tell now, "Well, you'll know in a while."

"System, I need to buy a detector. Can you help me change the device into a handkerchief form?"

[According to the host's request, the detector cannot be disguised as a soft object. It is recommended that the host disguise it as a bracelet. 】

"Alright."

While everyone was not paying attention, Lin Xi spent 166 points to exchange a bracelet-shaped detector from the system's toolbox.

[Does the host have the detection function turned on? ]

"Open it." Lin Xi said.

[Opening]

Soon, all the stones in Lin Xi's eyes were marked with groups of data, which looked very sci-fi.

But for the first stone selected by the boss, the data showed that there was nothing in it, it was just an ordinary stone.

Lin Xi said to Xiao Yongyan and Feng Miao, "This is just an ordinary stone."

Feng Miao raised her eyes slightly and glanced at Lin Xi, "You can really tell."

Lin Xi said, "Of course you can."

Sure enough, the master craftsman cut open the stone in front of everyone, and found nothing inside.

The boss touched his head and laughed at himself, "I knew I was unlucky, but I just didn't believe it."

At this moment, Lin Xi noticed that while everyone was busy comforting the unlucky boss, Lao Chen's eyes fell on Feng Miao.

He probably discovered that they had already expected this result.

Next, another boss chose a stone. Lin Xi also accurately pointed out that this stone contained jade, but its quality was extremely poor and it was not worth anything at all.

When the master drove the car, the facts were exactly as Lin Xi had said.

Now, Xiao Yongyan's gaze towards Lin Xi gradually became one of disbelief, and Feng Miao was even more surprised, but she was covered by a veil so she couldn't see clearly.

"Xier, you are incredible." Xiao Yongyan said in a low voice.

Lin Xi smiled and said, what's so incredible about it? It's just the power of technology.

Lao Chen had been paying attention to the movements of the three people. He saw that both stones had been opened, but they still didn't move.

Lao Chen came over and said, "Now that you have seen it, aren't you going to pick one yourself?"

"Whether our young lady wants to choose or not is not your call." Lin Xi said.

"I'm just giving you a kind reminder. There's no need to react so strongly. Or do you not even have ten taels of silver on you right now and are you afraid that you will lose to me?" Old Chen chuckled.

The people around had never seen Feng Miao take action, and their mentality gradually changed from awe at the beginning to contempt.

Maybe this person is just trying to be mysterious. How could anyone really tell whether there is jade in a stone?

"How could that be? Boss Chen must have made a mistake." Feng Miao said calmly, "In that case, I'll choose one."

Feng Miao and Lin Xi walked to the middle of a group of stones. Lin Xi supported Feng Miao and said, "Madam, be careful with your arms. These stones are very rough."

Everyone stopped what they were doing and looked at Feng Miao intently.

What she said before was so powerful that it aroused the curiosity of all of them. Now they were crazy about wanting to see if she was really as powerful as she said.

"Madam, please don't accuse the bosses of Xucheng of bullying you. Now we are not picky about anyone and we will give up the space for you to choose." said a boss.

Sure enough, everyone left the pile of stones and left all the space to Feng Miao.

Feng Miao didn't know how to pick stones, so he could only judge based on Lin Xi's small movements.

At this moment, in front of Lin Xi, the piles of stones were piles of data, and there were actually two pieces of jade among these stones.

One piece contains about one third of jade, and the other piece is almost entirely jade, a rare and good stone.

From the perspective of making money, that piece of jade must be valuable, but too much wealth attracts attention, and Lin Xi is worried that Feng Miao will be unsafe because of it.

Anyway, even though the material of that one-third piece is a little worse, it’s no problem to exchange it for more than ten thousand taels.

"Madam, please watch your step." Lin Xi reminded.

Feng Miao was very smart. She looked down at her feet and saw that Lin Xi's toes were resting on a stone.

"No problem," Feng Miao said, "I think this one is good."

Lin Xi was very satisfied. This Feng Miaoren was as her name suggested. She was indeed a wonderful person with a kind and elegant mind.

The clerk from Shenxianju stepped forward and asked, "Madam, are you sure?"

Just when Feng Miao was about to agree, Lao Chen's voice suddenly interrupted, "Wait a minute, I didn't make something clear just now. I'm going to make a bet with you. I want each of us to choose a stone and cut it at the same time to see whose stone is more valuable. Now I haven't chosen yet, how can you be sure?"
