The boss put the stones in and handed it to her.
Ruanruan gave him the card to pay with. This was the card Ji Qingyan gave her. She was going to spend part of it first and then deposit more money into it for him.
Ji Qingran followed behind Ruanruan in admiration, "Sister-in-law, you are so awesome, you can even get the boss such a big discount." She didn't expect that someone who looked so cute could be so awesome, which refreshed her cognition.
When Ruanruan was far away, she whispered to her, "Actually, I'm just trying it out. I'm not sure."
"Ah? Did you cheat him?"
"Yes." Ruanruan said as a matter of course. The main reason was that she didn't have that much money, so she had to cut it. As she spoke, she put the small pendant in Ji Qingran's hand and said, "This is for you. It's about a hundred years old. It's okay. It's a good thing."
Ji Qingran was so touched by the gift her sister-in-law gave her that she thought to herself that she must give her something better. It was such a good feeling to be cared for by someone.
They walked around the entire street, and Ji Qingran also learned how to bargain. With Ruanruan's cooperation, she successfully won a deal and cut down a quarter of the price.
Victory in the first battle.
However, Ruanruan didn't buy anything afterwards. There were some good things, but they were all connoisseurs, and most of them were their store treasures, so it was not worth buying them. The prices were quite expensive, and the value was not high after buying them.
Ji Qingran was somewhat addicted to bargaining, and bought a few small ornaments simply because he liked the craftsmanship and design. They were not worth much, he just bought them for fun.
On their way back, Ruanruan turned her head and saw an inconspicuous gatehouse in the alley with paper pasted on the wall. She took a closer look and was about to go in when Ji Qingran came back with two glasses of water.
"Sister-in-law, here you go. It's ice-cold and delicious." She took a sip herself. It was really refreshing to drink an ice drink in this summer.
Ruanruan imitated her and said, "It's delicious."
"Is that so?" Ji Qingran saw that she was happy to have found a soulmate. "This fruit tea from her shop is delicious, not greasy at all. Adding it to the smoothie is refreshing."
"Let's go." Ji Qingran drank and called out to Ruanruan.
"Okay." Ruanruan took another look at the moment she turned around and remembered this place.
When they were halfway there, Ruanruan suddenly thought of the stone in her hand and asked Ji Qingran, "Sister Ranran, do you know where I can mine stones?"
"What kind of stone are you opening? Are you gambling on stones?" Ji Qingran thought she was interested in gambling on stones, and advised her with the look of an experienced person, "Sister-in-law, nine out of ten times you will lose when gambling on that kind of thing, don't touch it."
Ji Qingran smiled softly and looked at the stone in her hand. When he met her gaze, he inexplicably understood what she meant. He looked at the stone in her hand in disbelief, "You're not saying you want to untie this stone, are you?"
"Sister-in-law, not all stones are gambling stones. This one looks like an ordinary stone..."
Ruanruan knew clearly that it contained a rich natural spiritual energy, which could only be found in the finest and purest jade. She was sure that there must be something inside.
Forget it, since her sister-in-law wants to play, just take her to play. If she can't solve this one, just buy her two raw stones to play with. You can't let her sister-in-law down.
He waved his hand and said, "Let's go. I'll take you to experience it. One thought is heaven, one thought is hell."
Ji Qingran had thought it through. He let his sister-in-law have fun and would ask her brother to reimburse him later.
"I just want to solve this stone. I don't want to buy anything else." Seeing that she was in the mood to buy a lot, Ruanruan quickly stopped her and said that she just wanted to solve a stone.
"Just solve it, no playing?"
Ruanruan nodded affirmatively.
Ji Qingran took her to a store and went straight to the master chef, "Master Wang, Master Wang."
Master Wang inside heard her voice coming out of the door, "Why are you here, girl Ran?"
Master Wang belongs to the Ji family. Half of the raw jewelry stones of the Ji family are mined here. Ji Qingran thought it was fun and followed him here a few times. She followed Master Wang around, and Master Wang was quite familiar with her.
"Master Wang, please help me open a stone."
Ruanruan handed the stone to him. Master Wang looked at Ruanruan and took the stone from her hand. He first looked at the ordinary stone and then paid more attention to Ruanruan. However, he was not that curious. He just thought that this girl was very beautiful.
Ji Qingran was also half of his boss. It was just a matter of opening a stone, so he naturally wouldn't refuse. "How do you want to open it?"
Ji Qingran looked at Ruanruan.
Ruanruan stepped forward to feel the richness of the spiritual energy inside, and roughly expressed her thoughts, "Can I cut off some from this side first, and then grind it inwards?"
"sure."
Master Wang took them to the workshop in the backyard, where there was a special stone-cutting machine. Master Wang began to cut the stone according to her idea.
When she cut it open, there was nothing inside. Ji Qingran was a little disappointed but not surprised. After all, her sister-in-law didn't understand and was just playing around, so she didn't stare at it anymore.
The grinding time was a bit long, so Ruanruan simply watched his workshop, where there were various machines and hand-carved works. Ji Qingran introduced them to her.
"Master Wang has excellent craftsmanship and has been with our family for decades. Many of Ji's limited editions are carved by Master Wang, and they are all hand-carved."
“Amazing.”
"Of course, Master Wang is an old artist."
Master Wang, who was grinding a stone, smiled when he heard Ji Qing praising him like that.
His hands were still working without slowing down, but as the stone was polished, the ink inside was revealed. Master Wang's expression gradually became serious, and he began to polish the edge more carefully and meticulously.
Judging from the color of the exposed material, it should be black jadeite, which is a relatively rare and uncommon type of jadeite.
Ji Qingran happened to look over and saw something inside, so he called Ruanruan to come and see it together.
Master Wang saw them looking at him and asked, "Do you want to open it again?" At the moment, this stone is already worth a lot of money if sold in the form of half a bet.
This was her sister-in-law's stone, so Ji Qingran naturally wouldn't make the decision for her. So she looked at Ruanruan, who said firmly, "Open."
Master Wang continued to work. As the machine polished the jade, the inside was revealed. Master Wang didn't expect that it was a piece of black jade as big as a fist.
Through the light, it appears emerald green, and the quality and color are top-notch.
Ruanruan knew there was one inside, but she didn't expect it to be so big.
