Chapter 244 I Want to Cut It Myself



Everyone's attention was focused on them once again.

"My Lord, which piece should I cut first?"

"This one." Song Ruan pointed at one of the pieces that made the jade pendant unresponsive. It was a raw stone used to make up the number.

"Okay!" the stonecutter shouted, turned on the stonecutter and began to cut the rough stone in half.

Because of what just happened, everyone was craning their necks to look over here.

As time passed, the rough stone was cut and the moment of unveiling finally arrived.

The stonecutter walked over with a hammer and easily broke the last connection of the rough stone.

The original stone split into two halves with a bang, fell to the ground and spread out, allowing everyone to see it clearly.

The neatly cut surface is covered with a gray patch. There is no green at all, not even the worst kind.

"Hey, this is the first time I've seen such a poor quality stone. It's a gray stone."

"Yeah, hahahahahaha that's really funny."

"It seems that two of the three rough stones I had previously increased in value greatly. This must be due to luck."

"Let's go, let's look at the other side. They've also started cutting on the other side."

This time, Song Ruan cut out a piece of extremely poor quality raw stone, which caused everyone's interest to drop to freezing point, and many people stopped looking at this side.

Song Ruan didn't understand the ridicule around her. Of course, even if she did, she wouldn't care.

On the contrary, she felt more at ease when she saw that the crowd had dispersed a lot.

After all, she has always adhered to the principle of making a fortune in silence.

If these raw stones didn't have to go through a clear road before they could be sold here, she would have wanted to buy a stone cutter and cut them herself in the space.

"The next step is to cut the second piece." When the stonecutter saw the raw stone that Yang Bin carried up, he reported it according to the rules.

The machine was humming as it worked, and soon the second piece of raw stone was cut. After the last connecting thread was broken, the raw stone was split into two and fell to the ground.

“Wow~ What is this???”

"Glass type!" someone shouted excitedly.

Glass-type jade is better than ice-type jade.

If the ice type looks clear, then the glass type is flawless and is the most favorite type of jade among the nobles.

"It's really glass-type! Even though there's no green inside, it's still valuable!"

The first thing to look at when looking at jade is its color, and the second is its quality.

Although the Songruan raw stone is colorless, its water quality is transparent glass, which is a very good jadeite.

"Master, continue to open the next piece."

Song Ruan rejected the person who came to make a quotation and asked the stone cutter to cut all the raw stones on the bucket cart in one go.

She planned to cut them all out before selling them, otherwise it would be too time-consuming to stop and cut a piece.

The stonecutter heard the instructions and continued working.

As a stone cutter, he is very proud of being able to cut good jade.

But the next few pieces were all cut apart without exception.

However, because there is a glass seed in the front, no matter how badly the later ones are cut, no one will dare to point fingers behind my back.

After all, if an ordinary person gambles on a piece of glass-type stone, he or she will never have to work again for the rest of his or her life.

The short and fat man and the smiling tiger who were picking and choosing in the raw stone area also came over with their men.

Because they were told that good jade was produced here, and the two of them could not produce good things themselves, they naturally wanted to expand their company by purchasing good materials.

Therefore, even though the last few pieces were cut off, they did not become impatient. Instead, they were wary of each other, thinking about how to buy the glass type by competing with each other.

"Next is to cut the sixth block." The stonecutter announced according to the rules and prepared to start cutting.

It was the same scene. When the stonecutter knocked the last connection open, the stone broke into two and fell to the ground.

Everyone's eyes were on the cross-section.

"This is??"

"Red, red jadeite! It's red jadeite!" The short and fat man also knew the value of the jadeite and shouted first, "Oh my God, this is the first time I've seen such a big red jadeite with such a bright color!"

Red jadeite is extremely rare, and even fewer with such a rich, pure red color.

Moreover, red will make the skin look whiter and more noble. Apart from imperial green, red jadeite is the most popular type of jadeite among aristocratic ladies.

Therefore, even though this piece of red jade has many cracks, people still flock to it.

"Ma'am, give me the price you want. I want this piece of red jade."

Smiling Tiger, contrary to his previous leisurely attitude, came to Song Ruan anxiously and went straight to the point.

He felt a little regretful in his heart. If he had known that this lady was so lucky, he should not have deliberately made things difficult for her when he sold the scrap stone to her just now, and he should not have deliberately sold the scrap stone to her at a high price.

"Hey! Smiling Tiger, what do you mean? I was the first one to say that it was red jadeite. If you want to sell it, you should sell it to me first!" The short and fat man was unhappy and walked up to him to argue with him.

Smiling Tiger ignored him, walked past him and continued to stand in front of Song Ruan, and said politely, "Madam..."

"Excuse me." Yang Bin immediately came over to separate the two people, "Our wife wants to open all the rough stones before discussing other things."

If it were any other time, if someone dared to stop him, Smiling Tiger would have called his men to kill the person. But now it was at the gambling stone club, and he needed help from others, so he endured it.

"Okay, there is still one last piece of raw stone, so it doesn't matter if we wait a little longer." Smiling Tiger forced a smile.

Yes, the last piece.

This piece of waste stone was the one that served as a stool for Song Ruan just now, but it gave her a fright.

"Master, wait a minute." Seeing that the stonecutter was cutting it in the middle as usual, Song Ruan quickly stopped him.

"Cut from here." Song Ruan gestured and asked him to cut half a finger deeper from the previous cross-section.

"Hey, isn't this his waste stone?" the short and fat man pointed at the Smiling Tiger.

The men around him nodded quickly.

Smiling Tiger glanced coldly at the short and fat man who was speaking, then turned to look at Song Ruan with a frown.

He had just cut a lot of waste rock, not only wasting time, but also not cutting anything out, and was ridiculed by his peers both openly and secretly.

This woman...can't be that evil, can she cut out anything good?

"Oh, it's broken!" someone couldn't help but say.

It turned out that the stonecutter had just followed Song Ruan's cutting method and cut off a piece of stone half a finger thick on the original cutting surface, but still didn't cut anything out.

Smiling Tiger breathed a sigh of relief.

Although he wanted to buy good materials, he definitely didn't want to be slapped in the face in this way.

"That's what I told you. How can you possibly cut something good out of waste rock?" someone said.

"Why do you care about others? The nobleman can cut out red jadeite and glass jadeite, so he won't have to worry about food and clothing for the rest of his life. Why do you care about what others are cutting? If you don't agree, go and cut out two pieces of these top-quality things!" Someone who couldn't stand people saying bad things made people unhappy, so he made a sarcastic remark.

Song Ruan ignored the sounds around him and asked the stonecutter to continue cutting at a depth of half a finger on the cross section.

"It's green! It's actually green!"

With this cutting, a small area of ​​dark green suddenly appeared on the cross-section.

"What a rich green!"

"Could it be imperial green?!" someone widened his eyes.

"It's hard to say. It depends on what happens next." The people discussing this seemed to be even more nervous than Song Ruan, the person involved.

"Keep cutting." Song Ruan said calmly.

The stonecutter rubbed his hands, took a deep breath, and continued working.

However, this time he subconsciously became cautious, fearing that he might not have done something right.

The onlookers also held their breath and stared at the cutting action of the machine, fearing that they would miss something.

Everyone is waiting for the final result.

No one was picking out raw stones in the raw stone area, and everyone came over to watch.
