Chapter 158 The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment
Huo Lingfeng didn't know what she was thinking. Looking at her indifferent expression, he felt a chill in his heart.
"Okay, then I'll wait and see!"
Having said that, he turned and walked away, ready to watch Song Yuanfeng make a fool of himself.
…
Song Yuanfeng spent a long time choosing and finally selected three pieces of raw stones.
Among them is a piece of raw material, about the size of a millstone, dark green all over, covered with green spots on the surface, with rich color and excellent performance.
Once such a stone is opened, it will produce high green color and it is almost impossible to lose money.
He believes he can definitely win!
"Second Young Master Song has a good eye. He picked out the treasure of this warehouse at first sight."
Wang Tiancheng praised with a smile, but the next moment he changed the subject and said, "I believe Second Young Master Song also knows the price of this kind of rough stone. One million, no bargaining."
He has been running a gambling stone field for more than ten years, so he naturally knows that at times like this, these second-generations will not bargain for the sake of so-called face.
Sure enough, Song Yuanfeng immediately said, "One million is one million, buy it."
After saying that, he looked at Huo Qinghuang with a smug look on his face, "Country bumpkin, it's your turn."
Huo Qinghuang looked indifferent as he walked to the pile of raw stones.
She closed her eyes slightly, and her spiritual sense instantly spread out, and the conditions inside the raw stones appeared clearly in her mind.
But in the blink of an eye, she randomly picked out three pieces of raw stones, as if she hadn't put any thought into it at all.
"That's it? You didn't choose it randomly, did you? Hahaha."
Seeing this, Song Yuanfeng laughed unscrupulously.
In his opinion, Huo Qinghuang was so casual, he must be unsure of himself, he knew he was going to lose but he was just trying to be brave.
He is sure to win this 10 million.
"Whether it was chosen at random or not, you will know if you cut it open."
Huo Qinghuang's tone was calm and unperturbed.
Wang Tiancheng asked people to move the raw stones from both sides to the stone-cutting machine.
The first thing that was cut was Song Yuanfeng's first piece of raw stone. As the stone-cutting machine started to operate, stone powder flew everywhere, but after cutting for a long time, there was no sign of jade.
Song Yuanfeng's face changed slightly, and a sense of uneasiness arose in his heart.
"Humph, there are still two pieces left. This one might increase in value."
He said with forced calmness.
The second rough stone began to be cut, and the crowd watched quietly.
When the raw stone was cut open, a hint of light green appeared, and Song Yuanfeng heaved a sigh of relief. "Although the glutinous jade is not as good as the ice jade, it is better than some people's."
He glanced at Huo Qinghuang, his eyes full of pride.
However, Huo Qinghuang's expression remained calm, as if the jadeite Song Yuanfeng had opened was not worth mentioning at all.
It was Huo Qinghuang's turn to cut the first piece of raw stone. As the stone cutting machine cut in, a bright emerald green instantly came into everyone's sight.
"High-quality ice-green jadeite!"
Someone in the crowd shouted, which immediately caused a sensation.
This high-quality ice-type Yang Green jade has a transparent texture and bright color, and its value far exceeds the glutinous jade produced by Song Yuanfeng.
There was a flash of surprise in Huo Lingfeng's eyes.
He had not had any expectations of Huo Qinghuang, but he did not expect that she could produce high-quality ice jadeite so easily.
Song Yuanfeng's face turned extremely ugly. He didn't expect Huo Qinghuang to be so lucky.
"There are still two pieces left, it's still unclear who will win!"
He said stubbornly.
Next, Huo Qinghuang cut open the second piece of raw stone and unexpectedly found a rare glass-type tri-color jadeite!
Glass-type tri-color jadeite is also known as Fu Lu Shou, which refers to the three colors of red, purple and green that appear simultaneously on the same piece of jade.
These three colors represent happiness, wealth and longevity respectively, symbolizing the three great wishes in life, so the price is sky-high.
"I still have one piece left to open, maybe it's better than Fu Lu Shou!"
Song Yuanfeng gritted his teeth.
The piece of raw stone that he valued the most had not yet been opened. He had originally intended to use it as the finale to shock everyone.
Who would have thought that Huo Qinghuang actually opened a piece of glass-type tri-color jadeite.
This made him a little angry, and he had a bad feeling in his heart.
Isn't Huo Qinghuang from the countryside? Why does he keep betting on rising prices?
She even opened the glass type!
Could it be that she is really so lucky?
Song Yuanfeng was unsure, but since he had already placed the bet, there was no reason to give up halfway.
He still had high expectations for the last piece of rough stone and was sure that he would not lose to the other party!
Soon, the piece of raw stone that Song Yuanfeng placed all his hopes on was cut.
With one cut, the emerald green jade flesh was revealed.
"hiss!"
Everyone gasped.
"It's green!"
"This water is glass-type imperial green!"
At this moment, a touch of green appeared in everyone's eyes, sparkling under the sunlight.
The green was crystal clear and flawless, as if it could flow.
Everyone couldn't help but admire how beautiful this piece of jade was. Even jadeite of the same top quality could not compare to its charm and fresh breath.
"Don't be impatient, we have just started cutting. Master, please be steady!"
Wang Tiancheng also widened his eyes, which were filled with disbelief, but he had seen big scenes after all, so he was very calm at this time.
The stone cutter also had cold sweat on his forehead.
He has been working for so many years, but this is the first time he has cut out glass-type imperial green. He hopes that this time the price will rise sharply, and his hands will also increase in value, so that he can earn more in the future.
Everyone watching held their breath.
Song Yuanfeng was so nervous that sweat broke out on his forehead and he stared at the stone cutting master.
Huo Qinghuang had a smile on his face and looked calm, as if he was not worried at all about failing in his gamble.
Finally, the stonecutter started to move.
He wiped it carefully with the grinding wheel.
The stone skin was slowly wiped away, and a thin green line suddenly appeared in front of everyone.
When everyone saw the green line, their eyes suddenly widened and their eyeballs seemed to jump out of their sockets.
Song Yuanfeng's face changed drastically.
Everyone's eyes were fixed on the thin green line. The stone cutter's hands were shaking slightly as he continued to carefully wipe the rough stone.
As the stone skin was constantly wiped off, the green line did not spread as everyone expected. Instead, it gradually became lighter and eventually disappeared.
"How... could this happen?"
Song Yuanfeng's face was as pale as paper, and he looked at everything in front of him in disbelief.
His hope of producing glass-type imperial green from the raw stone, which he had originally placed high hopes on, was instantly shattered.
"The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment."
Huo Qinghuang looked indifferent, with a hint of sarcasm in his eyes.
She casually picked up her third rough stone and handed it to the stone cutter, "Cut it."
This is a rough stone the size of a basketball. It looks unattractive and if it were thrown into a garbage dump, people would probably be disgusted by it and trip over it.
Song Yuanfeng felt relieved as soon as he saw it.
It would be impossible to cut anything out of a stone of this appearance.
The stone cutter took the raw stone, took a deep breath, and started the stone cutting machine.
As the machine ran, the raw stone was slowly cut, and a dazzling light burst out. It turned out to be another extremely rare glass-type imperial green!
The rich green color seems to be able to drip water. The light is restrained, but it exudes a breathtaking beauty that is intoxicating to look at.
"Oh my god, it's another glass-type imperial green. It's priceless!"
"The eldest daughter of the Huo family is so lucky."
Everyone exclaimed in amazement, and looked at Huo Qinghuang with eyes full of envy, jealousy and hatred.
In the market, jadeite of this quality and size sells for at least nine figures and is the dream treasure of all stone gamblers.
Song Yuanfeng was completely dumbfounded.
He could never have imagined that Huo Qinghuang could produce such top-grade jadeite.
He was filled with reluctance, but had to accept the reality.
"I'll take the gamble and admit defeat. Ten million, transfer it to my account."
Huo Lingfeng looked at Song Yuanfeng coldly and said.
"you!"
Song Yuanfeng gritted his teeth, his face turning pale and blue.
Although he was extremely reluctant, he couldn't cheat in front of so many people.
