There was a registration desk at the entrance of the exchange. After Rong Yan registered, he received two admission passes.
Rong Yan handed one to Su Lenghe and complained, "When I was registering just now, I saw Su Xueying, the daughter of the Su family."
During their several meetings, Rong Yan showed great dislike for Su Xueying, prompting her to ask curiously, "Do you have hostility towards her?"
Rong Yan curled his lip in disdain: "Most of the rich kids in Kyoto go to kindergarten in Kyoto. Su Xueying is older than me. She is very snobbish. I have always kept a low profile and revealed my identity, so she blackmailed me. Later, after she found out my identity, she wanted to be my friend."
"I hate hypocritical people more than anything else in my life."
"She would go out of her way to befriend anyone from a well-off family, and none of us liked her."
"However, there is something strange. Su Xueying lives a very luxurious life. She has attended prestigious schools since she was a child, and it seems as if the Su family has been supporting her all along."
Countless details strung together, and an idea suddenly popped into Su Lenghe's mind.
Su Xueying has always been secretly raised by the Su family.
She just couldn't figure out why the Su family had been raising her, who wasn't their biological child, for so many years.
Su Lenghe subconsciously did some calculations but found nothing amiss; it was the same as before.
However, she had a suspicion that Su Xueying's past had been concealed and that the heavens had been deceived, which was why she hadn't foreseen anything.
Before they knew it, the two had entered the exchange, which contained many shops of all sizes. Raw stones, jade, and crystals were displayed at the entrance, attracting customers to buy them.
The two arrived at a shop called Jin Yu Man Tang.
There weren't many people in the shop, but there were hundreds of rough stones on display.
As soon as the two men approached, the shop owner quickly came over and greeted them with a smile: "Gentlemen, what kind of rough stones would you like to see?"
The owner's name is Jin Yuanbao, which matches the shop's name perfectly.
This was the first time Su Lenghe had ever seen a raw stone, and she found it very novel.
These stones vary in size, shape, and color; you can't tell what's inside just by looking at them.
The raw stones are divided into those with a cut corner and those without, standing on opposite sides.
The price is determined by the size of the rough stone; the larger the stone, the higher the price, and the longer it is displayed in the store, the more expensive it becomes.
Su Lenghe started by looking at the raw stones that had been appraised, from the cheapest ones costing a few hundred to the most expensive ones costing tens of millions.
The more expensive the rough stone, the more spiritual energy it possesses. She then looked at the rough stones that had not yet been appraised.
When she saw the tenth stone, she stopped in her tracks. It was a stone slightly larger than a soccer ball, not very big, but full of spiritual energy, and priced at 100,000 yuan.
Su Lenghe was very satisfied and pointed to the rough stone, saying, "I'll take this one."
Jin Yuanbao was delighted when he saw it. He had examined the stone before and found that it was of good quality, but there wasn't much jade in it. Experienced people wouldn't even bother to look at it.
Fearing the two might change their minds, he quickly pulled out a QR code: "Once the deal is done, there's no going back."
Rong Yan paid: "Enough with the nonsense, just help me cut it up, okay?"
Fearing the two might change their minds, the shopkeeper carried the jade away quickly, saying, "Cut it all, cut it all."
"Old Yu, cut the jade open." Jin Yuanbao handed the jade to the worker.
"Wait a minute." Su Lenghe gestured. "Just cut it like this."
Upon seeing that it was a young girl, Lao Yu didn't say anything, but he felt a little disgusted. She didn't know anything and yet she was giving orders blindly.
With a clean, decisive cut, Lao Yu stopped the cutting machine, poured some water on it, and his pupils suddenly contracted.
"Green! It's green!"
Other people in the shop gathered around, and some were envious when they saw that emerald green color.
Seeing the green leaves emerge, Lao Yu became serious and continued cutting in the positions Su Lenghe had indicated.
Old Yu slowed down his cutting speed, afraid that he would ruin the raw stone.
Jin Yuanbao held his breath, his attention completely focused on the cutting machine.
If the next cut reveals it's still green, this rough stone could sell for millions.
About half an hour later, a green jade the size of a coconut appeared in Lao Yu's palm.
"My God, this piece is so big, it must be worth millions, right?"
"I think it could sell for more than that. If it weren't cracked, it might fetch tens of millions."
Old Yu held the green jade in his hands, looking at Su Lenghe respectfully. This little girl is really capable; the position of her strokes was perfect, right on the edge of the jade.
Su Lenghe examined the green jade; its surface still had a lot of stone skin attached, preventing it from fully utilizing its function.
"Grind the stone."
Upon receiving the instruction, Lao Yu completely polished the green jade, poured water on it, and a green jade as green as a kiwi appeared before his eyes.
"So green, so green."
More and more people crowded around to watch the spectacle, and the huge shop was packed with people.
Jin Yuanbao's lips twitched. This jade could allow him to retire immediately. If he had known that this jade was so valuable, he should have kept it for himself.
"Girl, can you sell me this stone?"
"I'll offer five million."
"Eight million!"
Someone immediately placed a bid, but Su Lenghe remained calm and said in a cool voice, "I'm sorry everyone, this stone is for someone else."
Hearing this, everyone could only feel regret and did not insist. Some people felt that Jin Yu Man Tang was particularly auspicious today, so they came here to select raw stones.
This was the first time Jin Yuanbao had ever seen his business so successful; his earlier regret was replaced by the joy of making money.
Strangely enough, the rough stones of the same price range were not as good as the one we just cut out.
Rong Yan carried Lü Fei and followed behind Su Leng He. Just as the two were about to leave, a sickeningly sweet voice came: "Leng He, we really are destined to meet."
Su Lenghe glanced to the side and saw Su Xueying walking over quickly, taking her arm affectionately, but Su Lenghe avoided her.
