Chapter 48 Top Imperial Purple
Xu Youyou said sarcastically, "Master Lu, why are you so stubborn? I told you to stop while you are ahead, why didn't you listen?"
Lu Shaoyan's face looked grim. He had been playing in the gambling stone field for so long that he naturally knew that the coin-sized imperial green in front of him could only be sold for a few hundred thousand yuan at most.
Compared with his cost of tens of millions, it can be said to be a huge loss.
Liu Guangtou clearly knew that the other party was in a bad mood, but he still approached and offered a price: "Two hundred thousand."
If Gu Xueying hadn't been around, Lu Shaoyan would have told them to get out. He took a deep breath and said, "No, I'm keeping it for myself."
Xu Youyou said at the side: "Master Lu really likes to hold things in his hands. He didn't sell them before when the door was half open, and now he won't sell them after the door is fully opened."
Lu Shaoyan was so angry that his nose was about to be crooked, but he had to maintain the so-called dignity of a wealthy family in front of so many people, and could only ignore Xu Youyou's sarcasm.
He pulled Gu Xueying and wanted to leave.
Xu Youyou reminded him again: "Mr. Lu, why are you in such a hurry to leave? The stones haven't been opened yet."
Upon hearing this, Lu Shaoyan paused. There were indeed some stones that had not been opened, and Gu Xueying also picked one.
Gu Xueying saw that something was wrong and said gently, "Stop talking, or just forget it and take the stone back to enjoy it."
Gu Shaoyan said, "No, we'll solve it on the spot. Xueying, you have always had good luck. Maybe you can get something big out of a small stone."
The stone that Gu Xueying chose was relatively cheap, only 200,000 yuan. The stone was inevitably small in size, so it opened very quickly.
Boss Chen did the work personally, and this time the stone was cut much faster than Lu Shaoyan's previous operation.
"It's green!"
Gu Xueying's luck was indeed good. A hint of bright green appeared in the stone. However, due to its light weight, the recycling price was probably around 200,000 yuan, so it was a break-even.
Gu Xueying agreed to Sun Laoer’s purchase price on the spot, thinking of buying a gift worth two hundred thousand for Lu Shaoyan, and then slowly cutting off all contact with him.
After what happened today, Gu Xueying felt that Lu Shaoyan was not a decent person and was not worthy of continuing to have any further dealings with him.
Lu Shaoyan had no idea that he had been excluded from the goddess's list of backup options, and he was still in a hurry to leave.
But Boss Chen's words made him stop again.
Boss Chen said loudly to the onlookers, "The stone I'm going to solve next is really amazing. Do you remember Miss Xu who sold a billion-dollar jade material?"
The stone gamblers still remember Xu Youyou's heroic feat vividly.
Xu Youyou coughed lightly and said, "Boss Chen, stop holding me and untie me quickly. If you wait too long, I'm afraid everyone will get anxious."
Even if the stone gamblers have lost all their money, their eyes light up when they see others opening stones, and they wish they could sacrifice themselves for them. At this time, Xu Youyou's words really touched their hearts, and they urged Boss Chen to open the stones as soon as possible.
Lu Shaoyan was naturally curious at this time, and even Gu Xueying was no longer in a hurry to leave.
Gu Xueying also wanted to see what could be produced from Xu Youyou's stone.
The machine was turned on again, and everyone listened to the rumbling sound and felt that it was simply the most beautiful music in the world.
Xu Youyou looked at how immersed they were in it, and couldn't help but become alert in her heart. She thought to herself that if the system left her one day, she would never set foot in this place.
Everyone here is a gambler, immersed in a common fantasy. Even if they unearth jade materials worth millions or tens of millions today, they will not stop there. They will only dream of continuing to unearth stones worth tens of millions or hundreds of millions.
That's what gamblers are like. No matter how much money they make, they will lose it in the end.
If the system hadn't suddenly popped up a reminder about finding a bargain, Xu Youyou would never have spent five million to buy a stone.
The sound of the machine stopped, and a layer of water was poured on the surface of the cut stone to clean it, revealing its true appearance.
"This is... this is... Imperial Purple!"
“Dreamlike colors!”
"Why wasn't I the one who bought this stone?"
"It's top-grade Imperial Purple! The price is about the same as Imperial Green!"
"Ms. Xu is so lucky!"
"It's hard to say whether it's really lucky or not. What if it collapses like the Imperial Green one above?"
Looking at the jealous eyes of the stone gamblers around her, Xu Youyou snapped her fingers, and four bodyguards in black suits stood beside her, blocking these unfriendly looks for her.
The two new bodyguards were retired comrades introduced by Shen Ju'an. It was said that each of them was at the level of a top soldier. Xu Youyou had also seen the competition between the two newcomers and the two old ones.
All I can say is that it's completely one-sided.
The two new bodyguards became the leaders of the bodyguard team with an almost overwhelming advantage.
The stone gamblers around just liked to gamble, they were not blind. They could naturally see that these four murderous bodyguards were not easy to mess with, and they took a step back in fear.
Sun Lao Er said tentatively: "Miss Xu, I believe in your skills, so I am willing to pay 30 million for this half-opened stone."
Xu Youyou was unhappy: "That's not the price you offered to Mr. Lu just now."
Lu Shaoyan, who was originally on the edge, became the focus of attention again because of Xu Youyou's words.
Sun Lao Er was also very embarrassed. Even if he didn't want to offend Lu Shaoyan, he could only say at this time: "I am also afraid that the stone of the half-open door will collapse. If I encounter the same situation as Mr. Lu, I will lose a lot of money."
The stone gamblers burst into laughter. Lu Shaoyan clenched his fists in anger. He was the young master of the Lu family and he had never been humiliated like he was today.
Xu Youyou didn't continue to dwell on Sun Laoer's offer, but turned to ask Gu Xueying: "Ms. Gu, do you think I should sell it now?"
Gu Xueying didn't expect Xu Youyou to suddenly point the finger at her.
"I don't know anything about gambling on stones. If Miss Xu wants to quit while she's ahead, she can definitely make 25 million." Gu Xueying said.
Xu Youyou nodded and said to Boss Chen very straightforwardly: "Miss Gu's suggestion is very good, so I decided to continue."
Gu Xueying's face froze. She knew that Xu Youyou was deliberately embarrassing her.
However, she was not in a position to speak out directly about this vague embarrassment. She prayed repeatedly in her heart that Xu Youyou's stone would collapse like Lu Shaoyan's.
But the reality is not always satisfactory.
As time passed, the stone that Xu Youyou was holding was slowly unraveled, and finally its true appearance was revealed in front of everyone.
"Another top-grade jade..."
"This weight is estimated to be around ten pounds."
"The color is rich and pure, it is the best among the imperial purple. I estimate the unit price will be higher than the last imperial green!"
Lu Shaoyan was so angry when he saw Xu Youyou driving the big truck.
Sun Laoer seized the opportunity to make an offer: "300 million, I'll buy it!"
