Chapter 524: Picking Up a Loss
To outsiders, it seemed that the little girl was curious and went over to take a look at the scraps.
After being examined by the owner and the stone cutters with a professional eye, what good can there be from the material that hasn’t been sentenced to death? The little girl was obviously doing something unnecessary.
Chen Kexin felt that there was jade inside. After thinking quickly, she walked over to a young stone cutter with a simple and honest face and whispered, "Big brother, I want to buy those pieces to make pickled bamboo shoots. Will you sell them for three yuan?"
The stone cutter said awkwardly: "Girl, go ask the old man sitting over there, the leftovers are not from the store."
Even though the customer didn't want it, the stone cutter didn't dare to make any decision as he was doing his duty.
After Chen Kexin gave the other person a thumbs up in her heart, she pretended to be timid and said, "Big brother, I'm afraid that old man will scold me. Can you please ask for me?"
When the stone-cutting man saw the girl's bright eyes looking at him, he was so courageous that he said without hesitation, "Girl, wait a moment!"
He strode up to the old man and said in a friendly manner, "Uncle, someone is offering three yuan for those scraps of yours. Will you sell them? Well, I think even the smallest mosquito is still meat."
The old man, who was immersed in sorrow, nodded slightly upon hearing this and said, "Okay!"
The stone-cutting guy who had completed his historical mission walked back proudly and said, "Sister, it worked!"
Chen Kexin immediately took out three yuan in change from her bag and handed it over, showing a lovely smile and saying in a crisp voice: "Big brother, thank you very much!"
"No problem!" Brother Jieshi quickly remembered something and said, "Sister, can I find a bag for you to put it in?"
Chen Kexin shook her head and said, "No need for now, I want to ask big brother to help me cut the stone!"
The guy who was cutting the stone was suddenly confused. What kind of stone did the girl want to cut? Is this a mistake?
Chen Kexin came to the garbage dump, picked up a piece of the debris and ran back, gesturing to the stone cutter and said, "I have a small jar at home, the mouth of the jar is not big, you cut it for me from here, and then cut it from here..."
The stone-cutting boy looked at the girl's pretty face and said in a responsible tone, "Wait a moment, girl!"
Amid the roar of the machine, a piece of the remaining material was cut off. The stone cutter soon discovered something. He ran over to Chen Kexin in great surprise and boasted, "Girl, it's green, there's something inside!"
Chen Kexin felt amused. If there was nothing, would they let you cut it?
Is it easy for me?
Even people sold their bodies for this mysterious jadeite!
On the surface, he was pleasantly surprised and said, "Big brother, you are so awesome..."
The stone-cutting man said with renewed courage: "Wait a minute, sister, I will take it out and see what it is."
He continued to cut the stone carefully.
After receiving the three yuan, the old man who was about to walk away with unsteady steps, saw the stone cutter working on his piece of scrap material and could not help but stop and watch.
When I found out that the residual material had turned green, I felt extremely regretful.
In his sorrow, he kept repeating: "One knife makes you poor, one knife makes you rich, and one knife makes you wear sackcloth..."
When everyone heard that the green had appeared, they all gathered around to watch the fun.
The uncle doesn’t understand why his niece is interested in leftovers? When he learned that the green had appeared, his eyes suddenly lit up and he observed the movements around him.
“Sizzle…”
Chen Kexin's eyes swept across all kinds of people and stopped on the green on the stone cutter.
No, it should be two touches of green!
The stone cutter was indeed a professional. He quickly cut open the piece of debris and found two round and smooth beads about 20 mm in size.
He immediately went to the stone polishing machine and began to polish it carefully. Amid the sound of "sizzling", the two noble and mysterious beads gradually revealed their true appearance, emitting dazzling brilliance.
The eyes of the onlookers suddenly widened, and they whispered excitedly, "These are pure natural jade beads, and they are a pair!"
"Oh my! Could this be the Imperial Green? This is a Jadeite Dzi Bead, so beautiful..."
"Two jadeite dzi beads are exactly the same, so rare!"
"Girl, can you sell it to me for 100,000 yuan?"
"One hundred thousand, if you can get it, I'll give you two hundred thousand!"
“Three hundred thousand!”
"Five hundred thousand..."
The old man next to him gradually turned pale, and he pressed his hands tightly against his chest as if he had lost his parents. The two beads were originally his, so why did he covet the three yuan?
"It's too late to regret..."
He staggered out in a daze, not even realizing that his slippers were about to be lost.
At this moment, Chen Kexin secretly regretted her carelessness and decided not to untie this piece of scrap.
I was curious at that time, why were there two spots emitting coldness in this piece of debris?
I thought they were two small pieces of good quality jade.
She waved her hands at the crowd and said to them in a firm tone, "I'm sorry, I didn't expect there would be jade in it, so I won't sell these two pieces."
Everyone felt regretful, and a few people had strange looks in their eyes.
Chen Kexin glanced at her uncle, then glanced at the raw materials that were brought over and gestured.
Wang Jiwen immediately understood what his niece meant and whispered a few words to the bodyguard.
The bodyguard found the boss, weighed the raw materials selected by Chen Kexin, packed them up and took them away.
Chen Kexin nodded slightly to her uncle, looked at the stone-cutting boy and said, "Okay, give it to me. I have something urgent to do and need to leave."
The stone cutter reluctantly handed her the two jadeite Dzi beads, then he quickly thought of something and whispered with concern, "Be careful, sister!"
"Thank you!"
Chen Kexin took it and put it in her pocket, actually putting it into the space, and walked out eagerly.
The stone cutter looked at the beautiful girl with envy, and soon remembered the remaining two pieces of rough stone. Just as he was about to shout, he suddenly remembered something, took back the words, and found a place to sit down calmly.
He wanted to wait until everyone had left, then take out the two pieces of debris and see if there might be jade beads there.
As the saying goes: If a man does not work for himself, he will be punished by heaven and earth!
The little girl was able to find a bargain, so maybe I am also lucky enough to find a bargain.
Without mentioning Brother Jie Shi's selfish motives, Wang Jiwen saw his niece leave cleanly and a few hooligans followed her stealthily, so he immediately followed with his bodyguards.
Chen Kexin walked out of the gambling stone shop and saw a human-powered tricycle on the side of the road. She was immediately overjoyed and said as she got on the tricycle, "Master, I have something urgent to do at the guesthouse. Hurry up."
"Okay, hold on tight!"
When a few shifty-looking men ran out of the gambling stone shop, they saw the tail of the tricycle and the back of the girl, and angrily found another tricycle. Before they could climb on it, Wang Jiwen and his bodyguard walked out of the gambling stone shop.
The sharp-eyed bodyguard stepped hard and kicked a medium-sized stone. The stone flew up and hit the rickshaw driver's foot.
The rickshaw driver almost fell down with a cry of "Oops..." He had to say apologetically: "Excuse me, my feet are injured..."
Several people got out of the car cursing.
Wang Jiwen quickly stopped a rickshaw and got on it.
A few hooligans ran over and tried to pull Wang Jiwen down unreasonably, but were stopped by the bodyguard, who said sarcastically, "Do you have any shame?"
