Two high-ranking government military officials suddenly stood up.
They had been watching the show, but to be precise, they had made a private deal with Mengxi this time.
If the Stone King doesn't end up in Ya Hu's family's hands this time, their five mines will be in danger.
It's important to know that the rough jade stones traded here are from the world's largest jadeite rough stone trading market.
Everyone wants a piece of the pie.
The other party reached this agreement with Mengxi in order to make more money from it, and to take back the five mines that Yahu's family had lost.
The rent they just paid for the mine was wasted; they can make another round of money.
But if this stone king really ends up in Ya Hu's family's house, then they will have no reason or excuse to help Meng Xi.
They prioritize self-interest and are not bound by any particular relationship.
But at this moment they were naturally in Mengxi, and before this matter was completely settled, they naturally had to uphold justice, because no one would disobey them.
"Since Mr. Fang has already cut it to this extent, why not just cut it all open and let everyone see it?"
We also want to see how much this year's "King of Stones" is worth.
This is an honor for our jade trading market!
Mr. Fang, you're not afraid to drive, are you?
The two government officials exchanged a glance, and with a wave of their hands, fully armed soldiers immediately surrounded the area.
Everyone's hearts jumped into their throats. If these government troops were to use ruthless tactics, none of them would be able to escape, especially since they were currently outside the border.
Fang Xingcheng naturally knew that even a powerful dragon can't suppress a local snake, and it was obvious that these two were on Mengxi's side.
Ya Hu stepped forward with a smile and said,
"Why are you two in such a hurry? It's just cutting stones."
Mr. Fang didn't say he wouldn't cut it; he just felt there was no need to waste everyone's time.
“We don’t think it’s a waste of time. Cut it now, right now.”
"I'm so proud of myself," Mengxi said.
"Yes, how can you know the quality of jadeite without cutting it open?"
"Nephew Ya Hu, are you feeling guilty?"
Ya Hu smiled.
"Although my grandfather is no longer here, our family are very trustworthy mine owners here, and that's a fact that speaks for itself."
Everyone who does business with us knows that our word is law.
Mr. Meng, don't think that just because my grandfather isn't here, you can take advantage of my misfortune.
With a wave of his hand, the stone cutter immediately lifted the stone back onto the machine.
This time, the cut basically peeled off the entire shell of the rock.
Two hours later, everyone present was a little tired, after all, it had been more than five hours since the first cut.
Everyone gets tired.
Two government military officers stared intently at the rock, speaking in hushed tones, their conversation unintelligible to anyone else.
Greed gleamed in their eyes.
How could they not be tempted when such a valuable piece of jade was cut out?
You should know that the local army and those guerrillas were fighting each other in a chaotic mess.
Getting this stone means so much money going into their pockets.
This is no easier than mining.
The owners of these mines essentially pay rent as a protection fee, and they are also responsible for maintaining security around these mines.
The amount of rent that actually reaches them is limited.
But this stone is different; this stone is worth at least several mines.
These days, the annual rent for renting a mine is only 10 million.
It would be strange if they didn't have designs on it.
By the time the cutting was completely finished, there were no more gasps or murmurs from the crowd.
It was Mengxi who was the first to rush forward.
Looking at the perfectly cut stone, the colorful jade has now been completely peeled away.
The dazzling light was so bright it was almost blinding.
No wonder the Imperial Green color seemed off towards the bottom at first.
It's because there's yellow jade underneath it.
Only when the yellow and green light complement each other can the green appear less intense.
But now, placed here alone, it is absolutely stunning.
It's so complete, the colors are so distinct, and it's so huge.
And the other piece of jade that was cut out, not to mention this piece of jade.
It's definitely above glassy green and below imperial green.
Such a huge and perfect piece of jade was placed on the ground, and everyone who came up to it was reluctant to put it down.
The afternoon sun slanted into the shed, shining on the jade and making it sparkle.
It gives one a feeling of being in another world.
Mengxi's eyes rolled back, and he fainted with a thud.
His men immediately came up and carried the man aside.
Fang Xingcheng excitedly rushed over.
"It's perfect. I've never seen such high-quality jade."
It's been many years since I've seen him.
"It's so beautiful, so beautiful, I could be satisfied for the rest of my life. Two completely different kinds of jade were found in one stone."
"With today's achievement, I can brag about it for decades to come."
The two high-ranking officials exchanged a glance and placed their hands on the gun holsters at their waists.
Clearly, the two had reached an agreement and were preparing to make a big profit, knowing they could stop after this one deal.
Just then, the door was pushed open, and a bunch of people rushed in.
The man in the lead walked in, laughing heartily.
"I heard that the stone I bought turned out to be a good investment. Great, great."
"Such good news should naturally be seen with one's own eyes."
He was accompanied by a large number of armed forces.
This group of people had better weapons and more advanced equipment, and it was clear that they were not on the same level as the people led by the two high-ranking officials.
The two people rushed forward upon seeing this person.
"Commander, you, you, what brings you here?"
"Why can't I come? I invested money in this stone king."
I own 20% of the shares.
"I came here specifically to see what the current condition of this stone is."
Yaka stepped forward with a smile.
"Commander, come and take a look at this stone, it's quite remarkable."
"The money you invested has multiplied several times over."
This is a solution I came up with last night.
This was something that Ouyang Zhenyu and Yaka had done after their late-night conversation last night, and the two of them sent people to handle separately.
Ouyang Zhenyu could see the inside, so he naturally knew that the value of this piece of jade would make many people envious.
It's estimated that local armed groups will also take action, not to mention other petty criminals who might be eyeing the situation.
Yaka's family is currently in dire straits, and under these circumstances, the higher the value of this stone, the more likely it is to bring them utter ruin.
The best course of action now is to distribute these benefits.
Since everyone gets a share, no one will complain.
They gained both fame and the subsequent cooperation and benefits they acquired through this stone.
It is far more valuable than this stone.
