Su Jinyue looked at Xu Jinfeng beside her and asked, "Should we untie it?" She didn't care. It made no difference to her whether to untie it or not.
"Untie it," Xu Jinfeng said. He had already made this plan. Su Jinyue would be less impulsive if she saw that there was no jade in the rough stone.
Su Jinyue smiled and said, "Then untie it."
"Uncle Carlo, how much is this rough stone?" Xu Jinfeng looked at the stall owner and asked. Since he had already decided to buy it, there was no need for him to hesitate.
"Two hundred and fifty thousand," Carlo said with a smile. This rough stone had been sitting on his stall for almost half a year, and because of that crack, everyone had given up on it.
Xu Jinfeng took out his bank card and handed it to Carlo, "We bought it."
"Okay." Carlo took the bank card with a smile and walked aside to transfer the money.
"There's a special area for stone cutting over there. We'll just have someone move the raw stones over there and cut them." Xu Jinfeng said, pointing to a square not far away where a group of people gathered.
"Yeah." Su Jinyue nodded.
Carlo handed the bank card to Xu Jinfeng, "Young man, do you want to unlock this rough stone?" Seeing Xu Jinfeng nod, he continued, "Then wait a moment, I'll have someone help you push this rough stone to the stone quarry."
"Thank you, Uncle Carlo." Xu Jinfeng thanked.
Li Yanfei came over from the stall next door and heard what Xu Jinfeng and Carlo said. He was surprised and said, "Did you buy this rough stone?" He had seen this rough stone before and felt that it was unlikely to produce green.
Xu Jinfeng smiled and nodded, "Su Jinyue and I bought this together, and we each got half." He didn't have much hope for this rough stone. Anyway, he bought it with the idea of learning a lesson.
"You guys are really impulsive. I can tell from one look at this rough stone that it's unlikely to produce green," Li Yanfei shook his head. He's been in the gambling world for years and can basically tell whether a rough stone will produce green.
"Just take a risk." Xu Jinfeng said with a smile.
When the others heard that Xu Jinfeng and Su Jinyue had jointly purchased a rough stone with a small streak, they all sighed. They had no hope for that rough stone.
When everyone arrived at the stone-cutting site, they saw six or seven stone-cutting machines on the square. At this time, the stone-cutting masters were working hard to help customers cut the raw stones.
Seeing someone push in the rough stone that Su Jinyue and Xu Jinfeng had bought, many people showed surprise. Most of them had seen this rough stone before, but they didn't have much hope for it, otherwise how could it have survived until now?
"I can be sure that the person who bought this rough stone must be an amateur."
"Maybe they have too much money and don't care."
"I asked the price of this rough stone, and it's 250,000. This price can buy a lot of rough stones on the market."
"Once the original stone is revealed, the other party will definitely regret it."
Everyone was talking about it, all looking forward to the show.
"How are you going to cut it?" the stonecutter asked. He wasn't very willing to cut this rough stone. If he could cut it, it would be fine. If he failed, no one would dare to come to him for cutting. Luck is crucial in cutting. Some stonecutter's luck is so good after they've cut a piece of top-quality jadeite that they can cut several more pieces in a row, leading to more and more people coming to them for cutting. But if their luck turns bad, and they can't cut a single piece for days or even months, then naturally no one will come to them for cutting.
Xu Jinfeng looked at Su Jinyue and said, "It's up to you how I want to solve it." He had no hope for this rough stone, so it didn't matter how it was solved.
Su Jinyue looked at the raw stone and said to the stone-cutting master, "Just split it in two." Anyway, no matter how you cut the raw stone, you can get the original stone.
The stone cutter nodded and picked up his tools to start cutting. No wonder he bought this rough stone; it turned out he was an amateur.
The sound of stone cutting was heard, and stone chips flew everywhere.
The crowd watched intently as the stone cutter's tools were in his hands. Although they had no hope for this rough stone, that didn't mean they weren't curious.
Time passed by unknowingly, and with a click, the original stone was cut in two.
"Out...out green!"
"Oh my god! Such a rich color! This must be the legendary glass type, right?"
"I've seen this rough stone before, but unfortunately I didn't buy it."
"Me too. If I had been more ruthless and bought it back then, this piece of jade would be mine now." Words of regret continued to be heard from the crowd.
The stonecutter's hands trembled at the sight of the emerald green, his eyes alight with excitement, and his movements became even more cautious. If this kind of top-quality jadeite were damaged by mistake, it wouldn't fetch much money even if it were sold. He'd been cutting jadeite for over twenty years, and this was the first time he'd ever come across such a top-quality piece.
Xu Jinfeng came back to his senses and quickly squatted down to look at the unwrapped raw stone, "It's actually imperial green glass, Su Jinyue, we're rich this time." Such a large piece of imperial green glass, once put on the market, just one piece of jewelry can make back the money invested before.
Su Jinyue smiled and nodded, "I didn't expect to be so lucky."
Li Yanfei and his companions, including the old man who had previously viewed the rough stone, gathered around. Imperial green glass doesn't appear every now and then. Up to now, they had only heard of it once or twice, let alone seen it.
"Your luck is incredible! If this large piece of imperial green jade were put on the market, you could make at least 100 million or 200 million yuan," Li Yanfei exclaimed. This kind of top-grade jadeite could be passed down through the generations, with even greater potential for appreciation in value.
"You guys are really brave, otherwise we would have missed out on this jadeite," Fang Shu said admiringly. If it were him, he wouldn't have had the courage to make such a move.
"Yes, so we can only envy them." Liao Qingyu and others agreed with a smile.
"My two young friends, I have a request that you should make. I hope you can agree to it." The old man who had looked at the raw stone before looked at Su Jinyue and Xu Jinfeng.
"Go ahead," Xu Jinfeng said. He already knew what the old man was going to say next.
"I'd like to buy you a fist-sized piece of jade," the old man said. He was feeling a mix of emotions. He could have bought the rough stone, but he ultimately chose to give it up. Now, for a small piece of the rough stone, he had to pay even more. The huge emotional gap was difficult for him to accept. But there was no such thing as a pill to regret, otherwise he would have definitely bought one.
