After being found by her wealthy family, Du Anrao unexpectedly awakened and discovered that the world she was in was a hot topic, genre-bending hodgepodge.
Her eldest brother was the '冤...
Chapter 233 I’m Afraid You’ll Starve to Death
Du Desheng suppressed the corners of his mouth that were about to rise, coughed lightly and said, "Then you can help to untie the remaining ones and see if they are worth money."
Since Du Desheng said so, Master Qi said no more and continued to dismantle the stone in his hand.
However, he was much more cautious than before and did not dare to continue cutting down with the grindstone cutter. Instead, he grinded down along the edge of the green little by little.
This process is undoubtedly time-consuming and laborious, especially since, as Duan Rao had expected earlier, this piece of rough stone is much larger than the one previously unearthed at the auction house.
It took Master Qi more than two hours to take out all the raw stones.
"This..." Master Qi looked at the rough stone on the table that was as big as a plate and of considerable thickness, and sighed sincerely, "Miss, you are lucky. This rough stone is top-notch in color, quality, and water content. It is also very pure, and the impurities inside are almost negligible. More importantly, it is so big, and..."
It can be seen that Master Qi's mood is very complicated at the moment. He is certainly excited to have unearthed a treasure, and it is certainly an honor to have unearthed such a big treasure, but the key point is that a rare jadeite has been unearthed from this piece of rough material before, and now such a large piece of top-quality green jadeite with delicate color, old species and high clarity has been unearthed.
All these things made Master Qi, who had been in contact with various types of jade for many years, couldn't help but exclaim that it was impossible. He felt that all his years of experience and professional knowledge had been overturned and were completely useless.
Du Desheng was an old friend of his. As soon as he saw his expression, he knew what he was thinking and secretly sympathized with him.
Talking about science with his little granddaughter would definitely be painful, after all, her existence itself is not very scientific.
Although Xi Jingyue had long guessed that the treasure Duanrao liked would not be too bad, she was still a little surprised to see such a large piece of jade. Then she couldn't help but think of Duanrao's master who was worried that she would not have enough food outside and specially prepared a house for her in advance to wait for the money.
It can be seen that the master is really worried about this little disciple. Not only does he give him industries, but he also gives him treasures. One piece of raw stone worth hundreds of millions is not enough, he has to give him two pieces, and each one is bigger than the last, without any regard for the laws of nature and the rules of all things.
only……
Xi Jingyue silently glanced at Duanrao, who had come close to the table and was observing the large, juicy rough stone from a close distance.
[Such a big piece, with spiritual essence inside, can be cut into pieces by Aunt Qiu and others to make a lot of jewelry. The remaining material can be used to make rings, earrings, pendants, etc. A small piece can be divided into many parts. Not bad, not bad, now everyone has a gift. ]
Du Desheng: “…” This prodigal child, when he gets something good, he always thinks about his own people and doesn’t even think about himself. If you sell this thing, it would be enough for you to buy a truckload of gifts!
Xi Jingyue: “…” I knew it!
Even though he was disappointed in her, if Duan Rao was not such a person, he would not value and care about her so much.
Du Desheng felt awkward for a while, then took out his cell phone and sent a message.
Not long after, Duanrao's cell phone rang. He took it out and found that it was a transfer message.
When he took another closer look at the transfer amount, his eyes widened.
"Ones, tens, hundreds, thousands, millions, tens of thousands..." Duanrao was afraid that he had read it wrong, so he counted one by one. Finally, when he found out that he was not wrong, his face went blank for a moment.
After a moment of vacancy, she suddenly came to her senses and turned to look at Du Desheng: "Grandpa, was it you who transferred the money to me?"
In order to facilitate Duanrao's future use, the black card was transferred to her name overnight, but now it seems that the only person who would transfer such a large sum of money into it is the wealthy old man in front of her.
"Yes, I turned it."
"Why did you suddenly transfer money to me? One hundred million at a time..." Are you worried about having too much money?
"…I'm afraid you'll starve to death."
Duan Rao: “???”
[Mr. Xi is right. My uncle may have taken the wrong medicine.]
Du Desheng was stunned for a moment, then decisively directed his anger at Xi Jingyue, looking at him as if he wanted to eat him.
You little rascal, you dare to say bad things about me to my precious granddaughter before we even get married. Just wait and see how I will deal with you when I get back!
Xi Jingyue, who was tragically "betrayed", said: "..." What a mistake. If I had known, I wouldn't have been so mean just now!
"The quality of this stone is really good." Qin Yanqing came out of the house at some point and stood beside the table looking at the raw stone that was almost completely taken out.
"Grandma, do you like this color of jade? I'll have someone make you the right pair of earrings later, okay?"
Qin Yanqing smiled, patted Duanrao's hand, and shook her head, saying, "No, this color of jade is too tender, and it's not suitable for an old woman of my age. You should save it for the elders of your mother's generation."
Duanrao saw that she really had no interest in this rough stone, so she didn't mention it again. She had already kept the better ones for them.
"It might be difficult to handle such a large rock. Have you decided who to ask to help you handle it?"
Duan Rao nodded: "I know an aunt, her family runs a jewelry company, they have a team that specializes in this, they can also help design styles and so on, the overall price is reasonable. The most important thing is, as long as I don't want to, they won't tell anyone about this."
"Is he the person who sent you the invitation to the auction before?"
"right."
"It's good that you know the answer. You don't have to worry about others knowing about the stone. There are thousands of strange people and strange things in this world, and not everything can be explained by common sense. If someone really asks you, just say you don't know and let others guess for themselves."
Qin Yanqing's words were a double entendre. In fact, if you think about it carefully, it might not be a bad thing for Duanrao to choose to make these raw stones with spiritual essence into jewelry and give them to relatives and close friends.
After all, these things have special uses. If they are given to people who know them well, at least they won't be leaked out, causing people with ulterior motives to notice Du Anrao and plot against her.
However, her words did remind Du Anrao that although the spiritual marrow jewelry given to relatives would not be as useful as those given to Qin Yanqing and others, she still had to think of a more reliable reason just in case.
[Got it! I will say that after I bought these pieces of jewelry, I took them to a nearby temple to pray for them and have them blessed. After all, people usually go to the temple to pray for amulets, which have similar effects to these things. Whether the jewelry is useful or the jewelry that has been blessed is useful, everyone is free to make their own judgment. Anyway, the end of science is metaphysics, so you can guess for yourself.]
The three people who already knew the truth: "..." You are such a little genius!
