Ouyang Yu thought for a moment, nodded slightly, and seeing Gao Wanning eagerly pulling her, she smiled and said softly, "It's not expensive."
He was also from a family that worked in the jewelry industry, and having grown up surrounded by such things, he naturally knew that the large rough stone was being sold at a bargain price. In that instant, Ouyang Yu felt that this big man was actually a very friendly person, and whispered to Gao Wanning, "If we bargain any further, we'll be going too far." Moreover, this big man had already lowered the price so much, and Gao Wanning had a sharp temper; Ouyang Yu was also worried that something might happen.
Gao Wanning was stunned to see that she had bought a stone for more than 5,000 yuan. She felt dizzy and hurriedly supported the stone. Her legs went weak.
She knew that if she said she wouldn't buy it now, she would be breaking her promise, and the big man might turn on her.
But how can we explain this to the Ouyang family?
She personally selected a piece of material without any jade.
Gao Wanning was at a loss. She had a keen sense that the big man was doing it on purpose, but she couldn't find any reason to. After supporting herself on the rough stone for a long time, she staggered to her feet and continued to look at the next stone.
She knew that if she couldn't find a piece of jade to make up for her earlier loss, she would be finished in the Ouyang family. But where in the world could she find so many top-quality jadeites? She looked at several rough stones until her vision blurred and she could barely make out the figures. Only then did she manage to find a huge piece of oily green jadeite.
However, she also knew that oily green jadeite was not valuable, so she did not dare to spend a lot of money to buy it. After walking through such a large area of raw stones, she finally saw the delightful green color on the last piece.
This emerald green was interspersed with delicate and gentle yellow and bright and pretty red, clearly the legendary tricolor jade. Gao Wanning was immediately invigorated.
However, she had seen too many rough stones and couldn't hold on any longer. So she only saw a piece of jadeite mixed with three colors, and when she saw that it was glass type, she looked away, gently nodded while holding the rough stone.
When the burly man strode over, Gao Wanning's heart leaped into her throat; she was truly worried that he wouldn't sell it again.
However, it seems that this big man has a good reputation. After glancing at the material, he smiled at the equally nervous Ouyang Yu and said, "This was collected by my boss before. He has kept it and never sold it. It is from a genuine old mine and is in good condition."
The difference between new and old jade mines is enormous. Old mines are more likely to produce top-quality jade, and the jade material is finer and more valuable than that from new mines. He seemed to hesitate for a moment before, and just as the man and woman in front of him were holding their breath in tension, he grinned widely and waved his hand, saying, "Fine, I'll sell it to you! But at this price..."
"Buy it no matter how much it costs." Three-colored jadeite is also associated with the concepts of fortune, prosperity, and longevity. This type of jadeite is very rare, and the finished products carved from it are even more valuable. In a typical small jewelry company, it would be considered a prized possession. Gao Wanning said in a low voice.
"Such a large piece of material is a rare find these days..." the burly man continued to exclaim.
“Eighty million,” Ouyang Yu said, steeling his resolve.
The burly man merely looked at him with a half-smile.
"Didn't Young Master Ouyang go to the jade auction this year?" He smiled disdainfully and gestured with his fingers. "The quality of this year's sealed bids wasn't even as good as this one. Do you know how much it cost? Almost ninety million."
He stammered, fidgeting with his fingers, "If Ouyang Jewelry hadn't been so generous with their money, we wouldn't have risked coming all this way. The brothers brought so much material, and you only picked out two pieces!" A threatening glint appeared on his violent face as he said, "Ninety million, what does Young Master Ouyang think?"
This year's jade auctions have indeed seen a surge in raw material prices. Although Ouyang Yu felt that 90 million was a bit too much, he trusted Gao Wanning and was worried that the big man would turn on him, so he had no choice but to nod.
"That was great!" The burly man's ferocious expression faded, and he burst into laughter, patting Ouyang Yu's shoulder once more. This time, he truly slapped the frail young man onto the rough stone.
Ouyang Yu's forehead slammed hard against the rough stone. He felt a sharp pain in his head, followed by a warm, moist liquid flowing down his forehead.
He blankly raised his hand and wiped it; it was covered in blood.
"Ayu!" Gao Wanning exclaimed in surprise.
"Oh dear, Young Master Ouyang, how could you be so careless?" The burly man called out insincerely. Seeing Gao Wanning supporting Ouyang Yu and glaring at him resentfully, he pretended not to see her. He stretched out his large, fan-like hand in front of Ouyang Yu, raised his chin, and said, "Give me the money." In another place, this would clearly be a scene of bandits blocking the road. Ouyang Yu, however, could only smile wryly, knowing that these people were not good people. He took out a check from his suit pocket, filled in the amount, and obediently handed it to the burly man.
The big man grinned, revealing his sharp teeth, and after receiving the check, he busied himself moving the two pieces of raw material onto the cart.
Although these two had come from a great distance, they only bought two pieces of rough jade and didn't even look at any more. However, the big man seemed quite satisfied. He watched Gao Wanning, whose complexion had recovered somewhat and who was only hoping that the Fu Lu Shou jadeite could make up for the loss of the previous piece of jadeite, and Ouyang Yu, who looked weak, leave. Only then did he stop smiling and turn back to the room full of rough jadeite.
At this moment, there were two more people in the room. One of them was carefully examining the piece of high-grade imperial green jade that Gao Wanning had chosen, and nodded slightly.
"This material is quite good, with a lot of jade. It would be a shame to cut it open and only make bracelets." Such a large piece of jade is rare, especially since the color is pure and the texture is good. It would be more suitable to make a decorative piece.
"If you like it, we'll take it back." Xue Xuan leaned against the surface of the raw stone with one hand, standing tall and elegant, and whispered in Shen Wangshu's ear.
He practically pinned Shen Wangshu to the raw stone, exuding an aura of aggression.
The burly man grinned and coughed.
There are still people here!
"Gone?" Xue Xuan turned his head, not closing the distance between himself and Shen Wangshu, and asked expressionlessly.
That gentle tone you used just now, would it kill you to use it a little more with your brothers?!
The burly man inwardly grumbled, but reluctantly nodded and handed the check to Xue Xuan.
Xue Xuan placed one hand near Shen Wangshu's ear, who was grinning, and snatched the check with the other. He looked at the number on it and handed it to Shen Wangshu.
"Take it and spend it!" he said domineeringly and coldly.
