"I don't understand." Xu Jing smiled and said, "Pick a piece and cut it off and take it home to protect your home."
There's a science to keeping a house safe. The richer the home, the more superstitious it is. Even officials believe in feng shui. Home furnishings are a profound art form, and the placement of furnishings is impeccable. Even the slightest mistake can negatively impact one's fortune. Furthermore, homes often feature items to ward off evil spirits. Those seeking wealth would offer sacrifices to the God of Wealth, while those seeking luck would worship Guanyin. If the house is large enough, a dedicated Buddhist shrine would be established for worship.
Xu Jing doesn't even have a place to stay now, so naturally he can't decorate the entire rental house with feng shui ornaments.
I've been attracting bad guys lately, so I have to buy some jade to ward off evil and suppress those bad guys with bad intentions.
Jiang Yufeng wasn't impressed by any of this, but he had heard a little about it. Even the underworld worshipped underworld gods, and there were many rules and regulations, so he knew a little about them.
In order to transform, the Jiang family changed the underworld god. Although they still worship Guan Yu, the layout of the family has changed completely, and the feng shui has naturally changed as well.
He looked at several dark blue stones and picked out a flat, round one. The stall owner said, "Two hundred thousand." Just as he was about to pay, Xu Jing stopped him. "That one."
There was a black stone in the corner, obscured by two yellow ones, making it difficult to see clearly. The stall owner saw it and was amused. "Would you like to exchange it for another one?"
"No." Xu Jing said with a smile, "Boss, please name a price."
"Fifty thousand for your friendship."
"Okay." Xu Jing patted his hands. "Pay."
"You have poor taste." The black one, not to mention the size, was not a good one even by the appearance. "Would you like to pick another one?"
"Yeah." Xu Jing wasn't polite. The black stone was good, but it was too small to be suitable for a house. It was just that there weren't many good stones in this batch, so picking them out was particularly difficult.
Xu Jing searched around and finally found two medium-sized ones. The stall owner said, "Three pieces, a total of 450,000."
This money is really easy to make. Xu Jing glanced at Jiang Yufeng and paid without even blinking. It seems that money in the entertainment industry is easier to make.
"Boss, cut it all, cut it in one piece."
The stall owner loved these newbies who knew nothing, and he was so happy when he heard this that he lost his mind. "Okay, 30,000."
Xu Jing paid the money readily, and several people gathered around to watch the fun.
After careful polishing by the machine, the first yellow stone was cut according to the lines provided by Xu Jing. The first cut did not turn green.
The surrounding spectators were all talking, some mocking, some sighing. Most people were reluctant to leave, just waiting to see the rookie make a fool of himself.
The second cut still didn't show any green.
"It's useless. What a waste of money. Let's go."
Jiang Yufeng glanced at him and said, "Are you sure you can get green?"
"No. Just buy it for fun. You have the money anyway."
He was rich, but he wasn't one to squander it. Jiang Yufeng leaned over to his ear and said, "Come to the villa tonight and sleep with me. Let's try out some more positions."
"Okay." Xu Jing said with a smile: "I don't care. The key is whether you can hold on."
What a joke! He was young and strong, so what could he not do? If there weren't so many people around, Jiang Yufeng would have wanted to execute him on the spot.
"It's green, it's green." This sentence cleared out all the H garbage in his mind. He looked in the direction of everyone's gaze and saw that it was indeed green.
The yellow stone doesn't produce much green, only a third of its volume, making it a good choice for jewelry. Judging by its color, it should be a white-based green variety, with some impurities in the base color, making it a poor quality. A rough stone sold for 200,000 yuan, but the product it produced was only worth 100,000 yuan, which is a loss.
The audience sighed, thinking that it was a good quality piece but it turned out to be a low quality piece. Someone asked, "This beautiful girl, are you selling it?"
"I'm not selling it. I'm going to keep it and make a bracelet to wear on my hand."
Jiang Yufeng looked at his slender wrist and thought it would be a waste to wear a white-green bracelet. "If you like green, pick a bean-colored one."
Bean-shaped, it suddenly looks classy. As expected of a big boss, he is very generous. "I am often filming and afraid of falling, so I just buy a normal belt. I can make a safety buckle with extra ones."
"Well, as long as you like it." You can never have too many jewelry. I'll pick out a good one for him tomorrow.
The remaining two stones were also cut. The second yellow rough stone was of greater quality than the first. It yielded green immediately after a single cut, and overall, it was a golden thread variety. The color was thick and wide, covering a large area, and the color was quite bright. It looked like the texture was excellent, a high-end variety.
After all the pieces were unraveled, some other impurities were discovered, which amused the remaining spectators. A rough stone costing two hundred thousand yuan, a sure win with this cut. "Beautiful lady, you have good taste. Name me a price. I'll buy it."
Jiang Yufeng was very upset when he saw that boy staring at Ji Wan with a sly look in his eyes. He blocked Ji Wan behind him and said with a stern face, "No, continue."
Xu Jing suppressed his laughter and looked at the third black stone he had chosen with a smile.
The first cut was no help. The second cut made the master who was trying to cut the rough stone gasp. "Oh my god, who put that in here?"
Black jade, such a noble and high-grade jade. How could it appear in City F?
"Oh my god, a small city can actually produce black jadeite! This is unbelievable! Am I seeing this?"
"It is indeed black jadeite. The boss must be doing charity. I just heard that the boss sold the raw stone for 50,000. Hehe, the boss must be so angry now."
"I have pink eye and can't stand these. Boss, how much is it?"
"At least a million or eight hundred thousand. No, it's not a million or eight hundred thousand, look at the finished product. It's a pity it's only a small piece. If it were the whole big one, I'd be so happy."
"Who says it isn't? But it's still a little small after all."
Amidst the sighs and sighs of the crowd, the stone was completely unraveled. It was truly free of impurities, a truly top-notch product.
The boss was filled with regret. He hadn't been willing to open the raw stone shipped from Myanmar, so he ended up buying a simpler one at a lower price. This stone looked a little small, but it could still fetch over a million yuan. In the end, he sold it for only 50,000 yuan, completely losing all his money.
"Wow, black jade! I didn't expect a small city like F to produce black jade. I've really broadened my horizons today."
There was a familiar voice in the crowd. Xu Jing looked towards the source of the voice and was stunned.
Why is Shen Nian'an here?
"If you like it, I'll buy it for you." Qi Yaoxuan followed behind him. Qi Yaoxuan pushed through the crowd and saw Ji Wan. He was also stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "What a coincidence, are you out shopping?"
"Yes. Who is this?"
Before Qi Yaoxuan could introduce them, Shen Nian'an ran up to them. She was shocked to see Ji Wan. "You are, Ji Wan?"
Oh my god, she should have bought a lottery ticket today. Not only did she run into Qi Yaoxuan, but she also saw Ji Wan. Was today the crew's team building?
