Chapter 245 About Gambling on Stones 9



Yu Li looked at the jadeite carefully and soon discovered the clue. He smiled and said, "Are you sure this jadeite is worth 500 yuan?"

“That’s natural.”

The stall owner looked very proud. "I have been in this jade market for ten years. I have seen so many jades. I can recognize the real good jade at a glance."

Yu Li sneered, "Really? Then I'll have to wait and see."

She turned to Minmin and said, "I wonder if there's a place here where they can do an appraisal?"

The stall owner snorted coldly, "We are near the appraisal point. Since you have brought shame upon yourself, you can't blame me."

Yu Li shrugged, "Okay, but you can't refuse to pay the appraisal fee."

"Don't worry, it won't happen. Let's go." After saying that, the stall owner took the lead and walked towards the appraisal room.

Yu Li followed the stall owner into the appraisal room, but Lin Nan did not follow because he saw Minmin was curious.

"Minmin, go watch the fun. I'll take a look at the raw materials and come back soon."

Minmin nodded, "Okay, Brother Nan, I'll wait for you here."

Minmin walked towards the appraisal room next door. As soon as she walked in, she heard the sound of quarreling inside.

"Master Wang, isn't this unfair of you to do this? This is a rough stone I bought from abroad yesterday for 400 yuan, and you actually said there is no jade in it? You are clearly trying to cheat me."

"Mr. Li, please don't worry. I just said that it might not produce green, but I didn't say that this rough stone will definitely collapse."

"Hmph, you obviously did it on purpose. You just want to cheat me of my money. The jadeite in your store is all fake, that's why you don't dare to gamble." The merchant surnamed Li said aggressively.

Hearing this, Master Wang became a little angry and embarrassed. "Mr. Li, I don't like what you said. Our appraisal room has been here for many years. You actually don't trust us. Why don't you go to Area A or Area B for appraisal? I'm just telling you the truth. Do you think you can get it for free?"

Mr. Li was choked. Of course, it was because the appraisal fees for Area A and Area B were too expensive, so he chose the appraisal for Area C.

Mr. Li was silent for a moment, then continued, "I don't care whether you're real or fake. I'm not going to let this go today. If you don't help me resolve this, I'm going to file a complaint against you, and I'll make sure you're not left without a fight."

"Hey, you're trying to scare me. We're not afraid of threats." Master Wang said fearlessly, "Go ahead and complain. Why don't you ask about my background?"

After saying that, Master Wang sat on the chair and kept silent. Mr. Li was full of resentment but had no place to vent.

Coincidentally, the stall owner brought Yu Li to the appraisal room, "Old Wang, I just polished out a jadeite, and this woman insisted that my rough material was broken. Can you help me appraise it for her?"

Master Wang opened his eyes, glanced at Yu Li, and said calmly, "Okay, wait a moment."

Mr. Li held his rough material and said sarcastically, "Tsk, it seems that they think your jade is too small and don't want to see it anymore. I don't know why this appraisal room has been open for so long. The material I bought from abroad is said to have no green color."

Master Wang sneered and ignored Mr. Li.

Yu Li glanced at the raw material Mr. Li was holding. "Sir, how much did you pay for this raw material?"

Mr. Li said proudly, "This is top-grade raw material. If I hadn't bargained like crazy, I would have paid a thousand for it."

Yu Li was surprised, "This raw material costs one thousand?"

Mr. Li thought Yu Li was frightened by the price, and he couldn't help but become more arrogant, "Yes, such top-quality materials abroad usually sell for sky-high prices.

Yu Li narrowed his eyes slightly. "Really? One thousand is indeed a lot, but I don't think this raw material is worth the price."

Hearing this, Mr. Li laughed out loud as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world.

"Little girl, you've probably never seen so much money as one thousand, right?"

Master Wang scoffed, "Why are you pretending? Didn't you just say you bought it for four hundred?"

Mr. Li looked at Master Wang unhappily, "Don't interrupt me, what I say is none of your business, and I'm guaranteeing an ice-type jade. I saw it with my own eyes."

Master Wang shook his head and said, "Forget it. Take the appraisal fee and don't come to me for appraisals in the future."

He welcomes fools to come for appraisal, but he does not welcome fools who are brainless. Mr. Li is obviously brainless.

He doesn't want to cause trouble.

Mr. Li was stunned and immediately retorted: "Why? I paid you, so you should follow the rules."

Master Wang clicked his ears. "If you don't believe me when I tell you the truth, then why should I identify it? Why don't you just go find someone to cut the stone?"

Mr. Li was speechless because he was going to sell it, not open it for himself.

In fact, he himself felt that gambling on stones was not safe, so it was better for him to make some stable profits by selling raw stones.

Therefore, he needs the appraisal room to issue him a certificate with large green data, so that he can sell the rough material at a high price. After all, he bought the rough stone at a risk.

Yu Li was thoughtful. It turned out there was such a saying. It seemed that Mr. Li himself was not sure about it.

Although he is stingy and arrogant, he is still a little smart and knows how to sell it to others for gambling.

Master Wang should have known about his little plan, so he simply refunded the appraisal fee and didn't want to provoke him.

Are you kidding? If he issues a certificate and the green color doesn't appear, Mr. Li can then shift the blame to him.

Yu Li smiled and shook his head. It turned out that people from every place had their own calculations in mind.

The stall owner didn't want to get involved in their dispute and hurriedly handed the jadeite to Master Wang, "Old Wang, please help me take a look first."

Master Wang took the raw material and examined it carefully several times, with a look of doubt on his face.

After a while, he suddenly looked up and asked Yu Li, "Do you think this jade is broken?"

Yu Li nodded, which actually made Master Wang curious. "This jade is surprisingly smooth. Why do you think it's broken?"

Yu Li did not answer, but asked him with a smile, "So Master Wang, is this jade really broken?"

The stall owner frowned, "How is it possible? How could such a beautiful jade collapse?"

Yu Li spread his hands and said, "Look, even Master Wang thinks so, then it must have collapsed."

Mr. Li hadn't left yet either. He came over to join in the fun and couldn't help but say, "I don't think it's collapsed. If you hadn't said you just took it out, I would have thought it was just polished."

The stall owner felt confident when he heard this, "I said that only insiders know the goods, unlike other people who know nothing and talk nonsense."

Mr. Li felt that he had found a soulmate and agreed, "Who says not?"

But he was looking at Master Wang when he said this, and Master Wang was too lazy to pay attention to this jumping clown.
