When he learned that Gao Wanning could actually see through the raw material, Old Master Ouyang was overjoyed!

This is roughly equivalent to the value of owning a jade mine!

He also saw Gao Wanning's eagerness to marry into the Ouyang family, and was even more reassured that she wouldn't dare to harm Ouyang Jewelry at this time. In order to let her make good use of her talents, he sighed about Ouyang Jewelry's predicament in front of her, and then gave Ouyang Yu a large sum of money to send them away.

Fearing that others might covet Gao Wanning's abilities and undermine the Ouyang family, Old Master Ouyang only sent Ouyang Yu and Gao Wanning to purchase raw materials this time, forbidding them from bringing any outsiders. Gao Wanning was flattered by this protection.

Although she was somewhat dissatisfied with telling Grandpa Ouyang that the raw material belonged to Ouyang Yu, the old man had already apologized to her and said many heartfelt words, so the matter was considered closed.

From then on, the old man treated her very kindly, giving her hope of marrying into the Ouyang family. Now, his trust in her so much as entrusting her with a large sum of money made her feel that she had been accepted.

Although Ouyang Tang was very cold to her, Gao Wanning didn't care.

She and Ouyang Yu control the most important purchasing department. In the future, even Ouyang Tang will have to be mindful of their feelings. Why confront him now and displease the old man?

Only by showing weakness can they gain the old man's sympathy.

Therefore, Gao Wanning arrived with a bit of spirit. She was particularly confident in her eyesight, so she chatted and laughed with the gloomy Ouyang Yu all the way, finally making Ouyang Yu forget his sadness, before they arrived at a very dark and secluded place.

She had no idea that such a filthy place existed in S City. Black, foul-smelling sewage flowed everywhere, and the ground was covered in all sorts of disgusting things; there wasn't even room to step. The car stopped in front of a low, dark courtyard, from which the faint barking of dogs could be heard.

As soon as Gao Wanning got out of the car, she stepped into the mud, and her expensive shoes immediately got dirty.

She looked at the shoes that the second wife had bought especially for her with a pang of heartache, silently cursing the jade merchant in her heart.

Ouyang Yu was clearly also a little overwhelmed. She reluctantly got out of the car and was led into the courtyard by a burly man with a scar on his face. As soon as she entered the gate, she gasped and her face showed shock.

Under the flickering, dim light, countless enormous raw stones lay scattered, piled up like mountains.

If half of these were jade, it would be unparalleled not only in S City, but also nationwide.

Ouyang Yujun's handsome face shone brightly in the dim light, illuminating the entire room.

Gao Wanning's face was pale. When she met Ouyang Yu's hopeful gaze, she tried to smile, but she couldn't manage a smile at all. Instead, she felt cold all over.

These raw materials... are all too big...

With such a large piece of raw material, she couldn't possibly see the very center.

But Gao Wanning didn't know how to tell Ouyang Yu.

This handsome, somewhat melancholic young man was quietly looking at her with expectant eyes. He liked her and hoped she felt the same way about him.

How disappointed he must have been if she said she couldn't see at that moment? Not only that, if she couldn't prove herself in front of Old Master Ouyang and was still picky, how could she possibly marry Ouyang Yu?

Gao Wanning calmed herself down and nodded gently.

She took a deep breath and walked to a huge boulder that was almost as tall as herself. She felt as if the huge boulder was pressing down on her head like a mountain, making it hard for her to breathe.

She couldn't understand how such a large rough stone had been transported here. This kind of stone, which seemed more suitable as building material, had no discernible jade on the outside, and she couldn't use the common sense she'd recently learned about jade gambling to judge its quality. Moreover, Gao Wanning looked around and realized that this piece of rough stone in the room was actually quite small.

Why not cut such a large piece of raw jade into pieces and sell it?!

Who can afford it?!

She felt a surge of resentment, but she forced her gaze to focus intently on the rough stone. Following its outer layer inwards, she saw only a vast expanse of white rock. Her gaze lingered deep within, but there was still no change. Just as she was about to give up, a dazzling, vibrant green suddenly appeared before her eyes—a breathtaking, translucent green that stirred the soul. This green exuded an undeniable air of nobility, instantly catching Gao Wanning's eye.

This patch of vibrant green stretched out before her, at least an arm's length across.

Moreover, its translucent emerald green color clearly surpasses that of icy jade.

Even if it doesn't have the translucency of glass-type jadeite, it's at least high-ice-type jadeite, and it's imperial green.

Gao Wanning was amazed, knowing that such a large piece of jade would be of extraordinary value if it extended further downwards.

Although she felt regretful, she thought that if she hadn't been gambling on the stone for Ouyang Jewelry and didn't have the money, she could have bought it herself. However, her spirits lifted, and she strained her eyes to look further down. She saw the delightful green extending towards the bottom of the rough stone, seemingly without end.

She only looked down five or six inches before her eyes stung and became red and swollen, tears streaming down her face. Clearly, her eyes could no longer hold on. But she was already certain that this seemingly ordinary rough stone contained a large piece of high-quality imperial green jade.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say it's priceless.

Such a large and high-grade jadeite is extremely rare in the world.

"How is it?" Ouyang Yu asked anxiously when he saw that Gao Wanning hadn't made a move for a long time.
