Chapter 969 (Page 1/2)
Seeing Lin Man's insistence, Wei Chaoran felt a little helpless, but he also knew that he could not change her decision, so he had to nod in agreement.
So, the group took the basketball-sized raw stone and went to the Wei family's newly opened jade processing factory.
After entering the factory, they went straight to the experienced master and asked him to open two windows in the raw stone so that they could observe the situation inside.
The master craftsman skillfully operated the tools and carefully cut two small openings in the original stone.
When the windows were opened, everyone's eyes lit up - both windows showed a bright green color, which meant that the raw stone was likely to contain high-quality jade.
Seeing this, Wei Chaoran immediately realized that the value of this raw stone might far exceed his expectations, so he once again proposed a new price to Lin Man, which was 20,000 more than before.
However, Lin Man was not impressed by the price. She still insisted on polishing off all the skin of the raw stone before finally determining the price.
The master craftsman continued to work, using his superb skills to grind off the outer skin of the raw stone bit by bit.
About an hour later, the true appearance of the raw stone was finally revealed to everyone - a piece of jade that was emerald green and crystal clear, without any flaws, like a fine work of art.
Shen Hao, who was standing nearby, couldn't help but exclaim in amazement: "It's actually a high-grade ice jade with full green color, and there's not a single crack! This is a rare and top-grade jade!"
Wei Chaoran frowned slightly, feeling secretly annoyed. He had thought he had given a pretty good price, but now it seemed that the value of this jade far exceeded his expectations.
If he had known the result would be like this, he should have directly raised the price to 100,000. Maybe Lin Man would have been tempted.
But now, even if he bid one million, I'm afraid Lin Man may not be willing to sell this precious jade.
Wei Chaoran carefully picked up the flashlight and aimed the light at every corner of the jade, shining it repeatedly without missing any details.

His eyes were fixed on the jade, as if he wanted to see through its surface to its internal structure.
After a careful inspection, Wei Chaoran found no cracks or spots on the jade. He was secretly delighted, thinking that the quality of this jade seemed to be very good.
Wei Chaoran pondered for a moment and began to think about how to persuade Lin Man to sell the jade to him.
He knew that if he could successfully buy this piece of jade, he could take it back to the port city, process it into various exquisite sets of jewelry, and then sell them to wealthy ladies, and he would definitely make a lot of money.
"Comrade Lin, congratulations!" Wei Chaoran said to Lin Man with a smile, "The value of the rough stone in your hand has really increased significantly.
Now, let's talk about the price of this jade. From the outside, it has no cracks, but we don't know the internal situation yet.
How about this, I'll buy this piece of jade for 800,000, what do you think?"
After hearing Wei Chaoran's offer, Lin Man secretly calculated. Eight hundred thousand yuan was already quite high for mainland China, but if this jade were sold in Hong Kong, the price would surely be several times higher.
Moreover, the price of jade is rising every year, and it may be sold at a higher price in the future.
However, Lin Man is in urgent need of money, and she is also very eager to find a way to enter the Hong Kong City market.
She felt that Wei Chaoran might be able to be her guide and help her open up the situation in Gangcheng.
Lin Man smiled and said, "I can guarantee that the jade is also full of green, without any floating flowers or cracks. If Comrade Wei can't do it, you can cut a piece down and take a look.
But 800,000 is a bit low, it should be at least 1.8 million. If you take it to Hong Kong for auction, it will definitely be several times more."
