Yan Xi and his third uncle each took a microphone and began to speak passionately. One said that it was not easy for their mother to raise their family and she was a great mother. The other praised their grandmother for being blessed and living such a long life.
Friends and relatives in the audience began to applaud and flatter Old Lady Yan one by one.
Su Yan just smiled. She didn't know whether Old Madam Yan was blessed or virtuous. She only knew that the Yan family must have a purpose for suddenly holding this birthday party.
Sure enough, after a while, Yan Xi started talking about jade in a rhythmic manner, saying that jade nourishes people and that a gentleman never leaves his jade without a reason.
The reason why his grandmother lived such a long life was because she had been wearing jade since she was a child, and she had never been to the hospital until she was eighty years old.
After finishing the story, he began to introduce his third uncle. It turned out that his third uncle Yan Laosan had been following the big boss to do jade business in Myanmar in recent years. This time they planned to set up a jade processing factory in Beijing.
Su Yan had been listening attentively to their speech when Lu Yining suddenly asked, "Mom, are they really going to donate money to the orphanage? Why are they only donating 30% of the jade auction proceeds?"
Su Yan really wanted to laugh. This banquet was originally an advertisement for Yan Laosan's jade processing factory. Yan Xi, the boss of a shell company, took this opportunity to come back and help his uncle auction the raw stones.
The Yan family was lucky enough to donate 30% of the auction proceeds. Businessmen are always looking for profit, so you can't expect them to lose all their capital. There are still very few businessmen who do charity anonymously and don't expect anything in return.
"Don't worry about how much they donate, we'll also contribute later!"
As soon as Su Yan finished speaking, Yan Jun came over with a frivolous look and handed her a number plate. Except for her two children, each adult at the table was given a plate.
Originally, she wanted to let her son randomly buy a piece, but then she thought about whether she should go up and have it appraised later. Although she was not as good as those big guys, the basic appraisal was not difficult for her. She also had a set of tools specifically for identifying jade in her space, but it was not convenient for her to take it out now.
The golden fingers that others have when they travel through time are real golden fingers. They can tell whether there is any material inside the raw stone by just touching it. The most exaggerated ones are the heroines who come back from the world of immortal cultivation. They can sense the spiritual energy of jade with their naked eyes.
Su Yan thought, God has given her a space to grow crops, and she can even use her mind to harvest vegetables and hypnotize people...
By the way, isn't intention spiritual power? Since she can cultivate spiritual power, she can use spiritual power to detect those rough stones.
Fortunately, her table was very close to the stage. Su Yan took a deep breath and calmed herself down, her eyes slightly narrowed as she scanned the largest rough stone in the center of the stage.
Hey, there seems to be a ball of white mist in front of me, with a hint of green light in the white mist. What is going on in there?
Unable to figure it out, she then looked at the irregular half-meter-high raw stone next to her, which was wrapped in a thick red mist in the white mist.
"red…"
"Mom, what's red?"
Su Yan came back to her senses, withdrew her mental strength and thought carefully, what was going on with the green light and red mist?
Could it be that the stone in the middle, priced at 5,000, contains jade? And what's the red thing in the one next to it? Could it be red jadeite?
Su Yan decided to sense all the jade stones on the table and then think carefully about what was going on.
Yan Laosan began to introduce the jade to the guests, and Su Yan concentrated and continued to use her mental power to explore the raw jade.
I checked several pieces in a row, but there was not even any white mist. I wondered if these pieces were waste rocks?
Then I checked downwards and found one block had black gas, one block was gray, the two blocks at the back had green light but it was not very strong, one block had yellow light but it was also very faint, and the last seven or eight blocks had nothing at all.
There was no purple light or colorful light. Su Yan understood that the presence of color meant there was jade inside, and the color of the jade must be the same as the color of the foggy light she saw.
She had a plan in mind, so she decided to bid on the irregular rough stone next to it with a starting price of three thousand.
She estimated that the raw stone contained red jadeite. The thick red mist indicated that it was of high purity. Whether it was or not, she would find out after buying a piece and asking someone to cut it.
"Boss Su, what are you laughing at?" Chen Jing asked.
"Nothing to laugh at. Isn't this a charity? Mr. Chen Jing, which one are you going to shoot?"
"I'll take a look first and shoot if I find something suitable. As for you, which one do you plan to shoot?"
Before Su Yan could answer, Lu Yirou became anxious again. Fu'er whispered, "Mom, do you really want to buy a kimchi pressing stone? It costs several thousand yuan."
Lu Yining was sitting nearby and heard everything. She tugged at Lu Yiru's sleeve and said, "Okay, sister, mom knows what's going on. Just sit there and watch."
Although he didn't understand what raw jade was at first, didn't the Yan family introduce it to people on the stage?
In fact, no one knew whether these stones contained jade. Didn't the Yan family say they would donate 30% of the auction proceeds? Since Mom wanted to gamble once, let her do it. Just consider it a good deed.
Lu Yiru suddenly became quiet, staring at the pile of strange stones without blinking. Could there really be jade in there?
I don’t know why these people like jade so much. It’s so expensive, but it’s just a piece of stone. It can’t be eaten, and it’s easy to break if carved into jewelry.
"Okay, the charity auction has officially begun. We'll start with Stone No. 1 in the middle. The starting price for this rough stone is 3,000 yuan, and each bid must be no less than 100 yuan. Dear friends and family, for the orphans in the orphanage, let's raise our kind hands and start bidding!"
Su Yan's mouth twitched. Haha, I didn't expect Yan Xi to be so unreasonable. If their company asked him to be an auctioneer, his shell company would probably go bankrupt one day.
At this time, someone suggested, "Master Yan, even if it's a gambling stone, we have to let us feel around first, otherwise anyone can just take a look from afar and take a picture."
Yan Xi said seriously, "I haven't told you the auction time yet. You have half an hour now. You can go up and study the rough stone."
After hearing what Yan Xi said, the interested guests swarmed to the stage, even the two male guests sitting opposite Su Yan were no exception.
Qin Peiran asked Su Yan, "Aren't you interested in taking pictures of the raw stone? You can go up and take a look."
Su Yan didn't care. She had already used her mental power to detect it, and she could only find some superficial information by checking with the naked eye.
"Ningning, do you want to go up and take a look?"
"Mom, I don't know anything about jade, so I'd better not go."
Like Lu Yiru, Lu Yining had no interest in the stones, let alone gambling. They couldn't tell what was inside the stones, and they didn't really want to learn how to identify jade.
Seeing that the children were not interested, Su Yan didn't want to go up either. When the time came for the auction, she watched them bid.
Natural red jadeite is very rare, and she feels that the No. 3 raw stone can produce a piece of cockscomb red jadeite.
