Chapter 557
An hour later, the stone was completely cut, and a piece of dark green jade the size of a football was placed in front of everyone. The whole piece of jade was transparent and delicate, pure and flawless, with a pure and rich color, and a dark green color that was dripping.
Wan Song was so excited that he almost bit his tongue, "This, this is glass jadeite!"
"hiss--"
The onlookers all gasped.
“There is actually a treasure in this stone!”
"Glass-type jadeite is the best of the best, and it's also a rare black jadeite. A piece this big must be worth hundreds of millions, right?"
"Not only that, this kind of top-grade black jadeite cannot be bought even if you have money!"
Everyone was talking at once, the atmosphere was heated and there was a lot of discussion.
The brothers Qin Jingli and Qin Jingxiu, who were receiving guests in the front yard, heard the commotion here and thought something had happened. They told Uncle Fu about the matter and hurried over.
The two brothers squeezed into the crowd and were stunned when they saw the ground covered with broken stones and ash powder, as well as a football-sized dark green jadeite on the long table.
This nice birthday party turned into a stone-cutting competition? Qin Dahai had already recovered from his shock. Seeing Qin Jingxiu, he grabbed him and asked excitedly, "You, did you do this?"
Qin Jingxiu looked at Qin Dahai in confusion, "What did I do?"
Qin Dahai pointed at the jadeite on the table and said, "Have you known about this thing for a long time?"
Qin Jingxiu quickly shook his head.
Qin Dahai didn't believe it and raised his hand to hit him, "You bastard, you fooled me!"
Qin Jingxiu did not avoid or give in. He waited until Qin Dahai finished beating him before explaining, "I really don't know. Dad, don't worry. I'll go ask Qiqi."
Seeing that his youngest son looked truly clueless, Qin Dahai let go of him with a snort.
Qin Jingxiu left the crowded crowd and went to a secluded place to contact Tang Qi.
Qin Jingli stared at the delicate and thick black jade on the table, and suddenly thought of the stone he used to press the dried radish, and quickly turned around and went to the kitchen.
Qin Jingli likes to eat steamed buns and pasta. He recently harvested a lot of round radishes from the vegetable garden in the backyard, so he thought of pickling some radishes and taking them to the troops as meals.
Cut the fresh radish, rub salt on it, put it in a cloth bag, place it in a cool place and press it with a heavy object for a day or two to squeeze out the excess moisture. Dry the remaining moisture, adjust the taste, put it in a jar and seal it for half a month before eating.
He had pickled the radishes yesterday and looked around for the most suitable thing to press the radishes. He then took out the stone that Tang Qi had given him.
Qin Jingli rushed to the back door of the kitchen and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the stone under the locust tree pressing down the dried radish.
He carried the stone back to the kitchen, washed off the salt, and carried it into the old man's study.
Qin Dahai had just had a granddaughter, who picked up a stone from the roadside and gave it to him as a birthday gift. The news that the stone contained top-grade black jadeite spread throughout the imperial capital in less than half a day.
As the story spread, it became: The Qin family has a second young lady who is blessed with good fortune and can turn stones into gold.
Because of the delay in stone cutting, the banquet started an hour late, but the guests were not dissatisfied at all. Instead, they were all in high spirits.
Witnessing strange things with my own eyes and broadening my horizons is much more interesting than drinking.
After eating and drinking, the guests left.
In Qin Dahai's study.
"What did Qiqi say?"
Hearing the old man's question, Qin Jingxiu was silent for a moment and directly showed the old man the WeChat chat history on his mobile phone.
Qin Jingxiu: [Qiqi, did you really just pick up the stone birthday gift for the old man?]
Tang Qi: [Yes.]
Qin Jingxiu: [Do you know that there is something inside the stone? ]
Tang Qi: [Yes.]
Qin Jingxiu: [Then there are things in the other stones as well? ]
Tang Qi: [Of course. Dad, do you think that what I took so much trouble to ship back to you from abroad are just ordinary stones?]
Qin Jingxiu: [I’m sorry, you didn’t explain it clearly in advance, so it’s easy for us to misunderstand.]
Tang Qi: [Silencejpg.]
The next day, Qin Dahai asked an acquaintance to invite a professional stone cutter to come to his home to cut the remaining three stones.
The stone cutter has been cutting raw stones all his life, but this is the first time he has cut such good jadeite. He cut three large pieces at one time. The worst one was ice type, and the other two were extremely rare glass types.
The stone cutter's eyes were burning, his face was flushed, and his hands were shaking with excitement.

"This, this is a true master. Even the king of gambling on jade in the world would be ashamed of his vision! May I ask which master selected these pieces of top-quality jade for Mr. Qin?"
"It's just luck."
Qin Dahai didn't want to bring trouble to his granddaughter, so he politely declined and asked the old housekeeper to politely send the stone cutter away.
Looking at the four priceless pieces of top-grade jade on the desk, the father and his two sons remained silent.
With the Qin family's background, they had seen fine jade before, but seeing so many of such large pieces of top-quality jade at once was a shock.
Qin Jingli picked up the purple jade that belonged to him and played with it for a while. Then he turned around and looked at his brother seriously. "What on earth is your daughter doing abroad? Are you hiding something from us?"
Hearing his eldest son's question, Qin Dahai subconsciously looked at his younger son. Although he didn't say anything, the suspicion in his eyes was no less than that of his eldest son.
Any piece of these jade stones is a rare treasure that can only be found once in ten years, but the little granddaughter gave four pieces at once!
Oh, it’s more than four pieces. The Mo family also sent three pieces.
If the three stones from the Mo family also contain top-grade jadeite of the same quality, then the combined value of these things is no less than the value of Qin Jingxiu's villa in Huajingyuan.
Faced with the suspicion of his father and elder brother, Qin Jingxiu could only helplessly explain: "I did hide something from you, but that was Qiqi's intention. However, I can guarantee that Qiqi has not done anything illegal. These jades have a legitimate origin, so you can accept them with confidence."
Qin Dahai was stunned for a moment, thinking of something, "Could this be the work of Ah Chen?"
This is the only way to explain why the little granddaughter is so generous. Mo Shaochen is the richest man in China, so it is not surprising that he can come up with these good things.
Qin Jingxiu hesitated for a moment and said nothing.
He did not associate it with his daughter's superpowers at first, until Tang Qi clearly replied to him that she knew in advance that there was jade in the stone, then he suddenly realized that his daughter was a superpower.
If the ability to detect whether there is jade in a stone were to be spread, it would probably shock the whole world.
Qin Jingxiu didn't dare and couldn't rashly reveal the secret concerning his daughter's life and death, so he had to acquiesce to Qin Dahai's guess.
…
Mrs. Chen's injuries had greatly improved and she could have been discharged from the hospital long ago, but Chen Yuanhong never came to pick her up. She didn't dare to go back to the Chen family by herself, so she stayed there.
In the tertiary hospitals in wealthy areas, most of the patients are either rich or noble, and single rooms are in short supply. Naturally, they cannot be used by patients who have recovered.
Therefore, the nurse had to remind her tactfully: "Mrs. Chen, do you need the hospital to notify Director Chen to pick you up from the hospital?"
Mrs. Chen quickly refused: "No, I've already called him. He's been busy at work recently. He'll pick me up when he's done."
