Chapter 257 Let's Gamble

"As the saying goes, even gods cannot tell the truth about jade. What makes you so sure that I can't make the right choice? Although 9.9 out of 10 chances of losing are in gambling on jade, there is also a 0.1 out of 10 chance of winning! Maybe I am that 0.1 out of 10! Just like this piece of lotus root powder of yours..." Gu Ning said, and didn't say anything else, but it was enough for Wang Hongming and Wang Xinyan to know.

Wang Hongming narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Gu Ning inquiringly.

Could it be that this woman really has some talent, and that the lotus root powder-type jade rough material is just a coincidence?

If that was the case, the situation would be bad. How could there be multiple jadeite rough stones in his cart? "Humph! I obviously saw this first." Wang Xinyan didn't want to admit that Gu Ning also saw this lotus root powder rough stone.

"I've chosen him anyway, so what's the difference between choosing him first and choosing him later?" Gu Ning chuckled, a little sarcastically.

"You..." Wang Xinyan was so angry that she became more and more annoyed the more she looked at Gu Ning.

Suddenly, Wang Xinyan came up with an idea, and raised her lips with an evil look: "Since you are so confident, how about we take a gamble?"

"Oh! How do you bet?" Gu Ning did not refuse.

"In addition to these two and a half gambling materials, if you can bet out ten jades from this pile of raw materials, I will give you this lotus root powder jade. If you lose, you will give me the same amount of money as the price of this lotus root powder jade." Wang Xinyan said.

"Yan'er, don't mess around." Wang Hongming immediately scolded. It's not that he didn't have confidence in Wang Xinyan, but when he thought of the lotus root powder jadeite, Wang Hongming still felt a little uneasy.

What if there really were ten jades found from this pile of rough material!

Although he didn't believe it, he couldn't help but worry! It's not that he couldn't afford to lose this piece of lotus root powder, but he was afraid of losing face.

However, to everyone, this kind of bet seemed like Wang Xinyan was bullying others.

It is said that nine out of ten times you will lose when gambling on jadeite. Let alone taking out ten jadeites from this pile of rough materials, even if they took out one or two, they felt it was quite risky.

The problem is that Wang Xinyan has already solved the lotus root powder jadeite, and her chances of winning are far ahead.

Even if they felt it was unfair, they didn't dare to say anything. They didn't say it was none of their business. Even if they wanted to fight for justice, they didn't dare to do it! The other party was a big family in Teng City, the Wang family! "Grandpa, do you think Yan'er will lose?" Wang Xinyan complained unconvinced. She just wanted to compete with this woman.

"You... forget it, just go ahead and have some fun!" Wang Hongming compromised.

Wang Hongming doted on Wang Xinyan, or rather doted on her, because she was the only one who loved jade as much as he did and was willing to learn. Most importantly, Wang Xinyan had a very accurate sense, and among the ten rough materials she selected, three would contain jade.

This kind of probability is something that even he, as a jade expert, cannot achieve.

Wang Xinyan's domineering, willful and arrogant character was caused by Wang Hongming's spoiling.

After getting Wang Hongming's consent, Wang Xinyan asked Gu Ning provocatively: "Hey! Do you dare to bet?"

"I dare. Why not? It's just tens of millions!" Gu Ning agreed readily. She had to cut the stone here anyway, and she would definitely win anyway. Although she didn't lack such a lotus root powder jade, why not do it if she could make them angry!

However, everyone heard what she said, just because she didn't care about the tens of millions, and if she lost, she lost.

But, isn't it just tens of millions? How rich is this woman?

Wang Xinyan was jealous of Gu Ning's wealth. Although the Wang family was rich and had a net worth of tens of billions, her private money was only a few hundred thousand at most. How could she feel balanced?

"Then let's cut the stone!" Wang Xinyan urged impatiently.

"However, in order to prevent someone from going back on their word, I think it's better to write down some evidence first." Gu Ning suggested. She just didn't trust the Wang family.

“You…” Wang Xinyan was naturally unhappy about being suspected, but in order to convince her, she agreed: “Okay, I’ll write it.”

Although Wang Hongming is conceited, he is also smart. Otherwise, how could he have developed such a huge fortune? Seeing Gu Ning's confident look, he began to feel uneasy.

However, even gods cannot tell the quality of jade. Even senior jade experts may not be able to tell jadeite from sixty or so rough stones. Thinking of this, Wang Hongming felt more at ease.

A few minutes later, two copies of the certificate were printed out.

They all signed, and then Gu Ning began to cut the stone.

There are three stone-cutting machines in the store, but only one is currently in use, so there are two empty ones, so Gu Ning uses two of them to cut stones.

The first one Gu Ning took out was a rough piece of jadeite of medium quality, which was two-thirds the size of a football. He drew the lines himself, and after he was done, he gave it to the stone cutter.

The second one that Gu Ning took out was the size of a rugby ball, and it was a medium-quality jadeite, and he also drew the lines on it himself.

Many people had already gathered when they heard that a lotus-root-powder jadeite had appeared. After hearing about the bet, even more people came. Even though the stone-cutting area of ​​Wang's rough material shop was more than 20 square meters, with 40 or 50 people standing, it still felt not enough! Seeing Gu Ning's jadeite being cut, even Wang Xinyan and Wang Hongming, who were sure that it would not produce green, felt a little nervous. Although they were sure that it would not produce green, they were afraid of the worst! Before Wang Xinyan's lotus-root-powder jadeite was completely cut, Gu Ning's first rough material was cut. With the excited cry of the stone-cutting master that the green was out, everyone's eyes fell on the jade flesh exposed after it was cut.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

"What? It's green? How is that possible?" Wang Xinyan shouted in disbelief, and Wang Hongming was also full of disbelief.

How is that possible? How is that possible?

But, it is really green.

"What kind?" someone asked.

The stone cutter immediately wiped the dust off the jade, took a look at it, and said, "The green is black, and the black is also transparent with green. This is black jadeite, with good texture. It is medium-grade jadeite."

“Black jadeite, this is quite rare among medium-grade jadeite!” someone said excitedly.

"Humph, who knows if it's because of the green skin!" Wang Xinyan snorted unconvincedly, and naturally hoped that it was because of the green skin. If the other party could solve the jade, then her chance of losing would be one point higher.

Thinking of the possibility of losing, Wang Xinyan's face flashed with viciousness. No, she couldn't lose.

"Whether it's due to the green skin or not, we'll know if we continue to solve it?" Gu Ning was not worried at all, but full of confidence.

Wang Hongming began to feel uneasy again. He had a feeling that there were probably more than ten raw materials among these sixty or so.

"Miss, would you like to sell your jadeite?" someone hurriedly asked.

"You have to take action, but you have to solve the problem completely first before you take action." Gu Ning said.

After Gu Ning said this, everyone naturally stopped bidding in a hurry.
