Thinking about Ye Xingchen, Ling Yun couldn't help but smile as he muttered to himself.
With a wave of his hand, the jade shards that had fallen to the ground flew into Ling Yun's hand, and he stored them in his spatial ring.
After all, they were two basketball-sized pieces of imperial green jade. After the carving was complete, the shards were of different sizes, but they were all useful to Ling Yun.
Then, Ling Yun brandished his knife again.
He peeled off the remaining four pieces of top-grade jade. Following Ling Yun's movements, the gray stone shards fell like rain. Soon, he had peeled off all the stone shards.
Purple, white, yellow, red, and black, the top-grade jadeite finally took off its ordinary and ugly appearance in Ling Yun's hands. Under the illumination of the lights, the jadeite was colorful and dazzling, blooming with the most brilliant splendor!
"Hehe, it's really beautiful!"
Even the knowledgeable Ling Yun couldn't help but exclaim in admiration at such a beautiful scene.
Such a treasure was definitely rare in the world. It was a generous gift from nature, a truly rare treasure.
"I have no problem with carving, but I'm not a professional when it comes to making jewelry. I'll have to find a professional for this!"
As he spoke, Ling Yun put away the statues of himself and Ye Xingchen. He also put away the multicolored candied hawthorn and left the study.
As for the gray stone shards on the ground, they were worthless. Naturally, someone would clean them up.
"I'm going out for a while."
Ling Yun shouted at the top of his lungs. He left the house and went straight to Qingshui City's Antique Street.
Of course, Ling Yun was going to Yu Ding Xuan to look for the Lord of Jade.
Before the college entrance examination, Ling Yun had once given out some benefits. That time, he had made more than ten sets of green imperial jade jewelry in one go and given out quite a few. Those jewelry were all made by the best sculptor the Lord of Jade had found. It could be said to be beautiful, and the design was ingenious. Ling Yun was very satisfied.
Moreover, no matter who he gave it to, they all praised it and liked it wholeheartedly.
That was why Ling Yun came to the Lord of Jade for help this time.
Yu Ding Xuan was brightly lit. Murong Wenshi, Han Laosan, and Song Zhengyang were there as well. There was also an unfamiliar old man in his fifties sitting in the living room. The five of them were chatting and sipping tea.
Ling Yun noticed that the five of them were talking about the opening of the Heaven and Earth Group. He couldn't help but laugh.
"Lord of Jade, I'm here to visit you. Please forgive me if I've been rude."
Ling Yun stood outside the door, his voice loud and clear, directly sending the message to the living room where the five of them were.
Apart from the unfamiliar old man, the other four immediately stood up when they heard the voice and looked at each other in dismay.
Of course, they could tell that this was Ling Yun's voice.
"What are you waiting for? Speak of the devil, and he's here. Go and welcome him! "
Song Zhengyang, who was the most familiar with Ling Yun, was the first to snap out of his daze and walk out.
The unfamiliar old man didn't know what was going on, but he could only follow after seeing the other four go out to welcome him.
"Old Li, aren't you going to the Heaven and Earth Group to congratulate Ling Yun? Now, the main character is here. This is Ling Yun. "
"Ling Yun, let me introduce you. This is Huaxia's number one jewelry carving master, Master Li Yuze. The dozen sets of jewelry you had last time were all made by him. "
The five of them invited Ling Yun into the living room. After some small talk, the Lord of Jade took the initiative to introduce the two of them.
Ha! This was really a pillow sent to him when he was dozing off!
Li Yuze looked at Ling Yun. He was indeed a dragon among men. He immediately stood up and cupped his fists. "It's an honor to meet you!"
"Nice to meet you!" Ling Yun hurriedly stood up and returned the greeting.
How could it not be? Ling Yun thought to himself. He was here to look for him.
"We're all on the same side. There's no need to be so polite. Sit down and talk."
The Lord of Jade gestured for the two of them to sit down. "Ling Yun, your Heaven and Earth Group is opening the day after tomorrow. You must be very busy these two days, right? Why are you here at this time? Is … is there anything I can help you with? "
Ever since Ling Yun moved the Green Dragon Out at Sea away from Yu Ding Xuan, he hadn't been here. The Lord of Jade knew that Ling Yun had something to do with his sudden visit.
Ling Yun went straight to the point. "Hehe, Lord of Jade, I won't hide it from you. I really have a favor to ask this time. However, it's a coincidence that the person I'm looking for is this Master Li. "
"Oh?"
Song Zhengyang and the Lord of Jade looked at each other. They knew that Ling Yun wasn't here to look for them.
"Boss Ling, feel free to speak your mind. I'll do my best as long as it's within my capabilities."
Li Yuze had heard of Ling Yun's name from the Lord of Jade and the others for a long time. Now that Ling Yun was looking for him, he agreed readily.
"Then I won't stand on ceremony. It's like this …"
Ling Yun quickly explained the purpose of his visit.
"Bracelets, earrings, necklaces … a total of five sets of jewelry. I'll deliver them the day after tomorrow at the latest."
After listening to Ling Yun's request, Master Li Yuze muttered, "This isn't difficult. If we work day and night, we should be able to complete it by tomorrow night."
Then, he looked at the empty-handed Ling Yun and asked in confusion, "The key is, what materials do you use to make them?"
Ling Yun came empty-handed. Did he have to pick the materials himself?
"I've brought the materials. They're right here."
Ling Yun left his seat and walked to the center of the room. With a slight smile on his face, the colorful candied hawthorn appeared in his hand. It shone brilliantly in the living room!
Silence!
The five big shots of the jewelry and jade industry in the living room were all stunned!
After a long while, the Lord of Jade's expression changed from shock to bitterness. His expression was as though he had just married his wife and was about to consummate their marriage, but someone else had barged in and snatched her away. There was no difference.
Who wouldn't feel bitter? Moreover, the Lord of Jade loved jade as much as his life!
"Ling Yun, this … this is the candied hawthorn that you bought from me?"
Other than Li Yuze, the other four people present knew that this was the Super Tanghulu Skewer. The basketball-sized red jade was cut out by Song Zhengyang himself.
"It's not just red jade, but five colors. Five colors! I didn't expect nature to be so amazing!"
"This is really an eye-opener …"
"So this is the real King of Stones. Even though it's not as big as the dragonstone imperial green jade, it's much more valuable and rare."
"My life wasn't in vain after seeing these treasures. It was worth it!"
The other four people also reacted. They couldn't hide the shock on their faces. They couldn't help but stand up, as if they were attracted by something. They walked towards Ling Yun, or rather, towards the skewer of sugar-coated haws.
Without Ling Yun's consent, the five of them reached out to touch the rare treasure and praised it. Their excitement was indescribable.
"Lord of Jade, this is indeed the candied hawthorn. If you feel that you lost out … name a price, and I can compensate you now."
Seeing the Lord of Jade's expression of bitterness, disappointment, regret, shock, and excitement, Ling Yun felt bad and said, "The Lord of Jade has a complicated expression on his face.
He had used five hundred million yuan to get three treasures from the Lord of Jade, the dragonstone imperial green jade king, this candied hawthorn, and the Lord of Jade's treasure, the Green Dragon Out at Sea. Ling Yun had definitely gotten a great bargain.
In contrast, the Lord of Jade had suffered a great loss. How could he not feel bad when he saw the true body of the candied hawthorn?
Ling Yun's current value was far from what it used to be. That was why he wanted compensation. Ling Yun wouldn't have brought it up in the past.
The Lord of Jade regained his senses after hearing Ling Yun's words. "That's not what I meant!" he said solemnly.
"Ling Yun, I'm doing business. Business is business. I sold it, and that's that!"
"Moreover, I really didn't take this strange-shaped stone seriously. To tell you the truth, if someone came to buy the stone at that time, they would probably buy it at the price of the strange stone. At most, it would be a few tens of thousands of yuan."
"If that's the case, then I, Yu Shengjin, will be the one to blame. Perhaps this rare treasure will be buried in this world for a long time."
"As for what happened just now, I indeed lost my composure. However, I'm just an ordinary person. This is human nature. Please forgive me."
Yu Shengjin waved his hand without waiting for Ling Yun to speak. "Therefore, don't bring up the matter of compensation again."
Murong Wenshi, Song Zhengyang, and the rest nodded in agreement. That was indeed the case. It was very normal to make a mistake while gambling on stones. Moreover, Ling Yun had given him five hundred million yuan.
Moreover, Ling Yun had promised Yu Shengjin that he would give him a ten percent discount according to the market price as long as he bought the imperial green jade from him. Everyone present knew about this.
"Chief Ling, you said five sets of jewelry. Does that mean one for each color?"
Li Yuze was quick-witted. In order to prevent the awkwardness from continuing, he changed the topic and talked about business.
"That's right."
"Master Li, how big of a piece of material do I need for each color of jade?"
Ling Yun naturally asked Li Yuze since there was a professional present.
Li Yuze gestured with his hands. Ling Yun took out the Devil's Blade and cut out a large piece of each color of jade. He passed it to everyone in turn.
"Then, I'll have to trouble you, Master Li?"
Li Yuze exuded an indescribable confidence as he held the top-grade red jade in his hands. "Thank you, Chief Ling, for trusting me. I dare to guarantee that these five sets of jewelry will be the most perfect jewelry I've ever made in my life!"
When the best craftsmen encountered the best materials, they would definitely be able to inspire him.
"Thank you very much, Master Li. This is just a small reward. Please accept it."
Ling Yun took out a two-million-yuan check and stuffed it into Li Yuze's pocket, ignoring his refusal.
Ling Yun had really gone all out for Ye Xingchen.
Who asked Ye Xingchen to be the woman that moved him the most?
After the business was done, Ling Yun told Li Yuze in detail about the sizes and the general style of each piece of jewelry. The rest was up to the master to decide.
Then, Ling Yun bid farewell and returned to Mansion Number One to cultivate.
He had no time to waste because the next two days would be Ling Yun's busiest days! (To be continued.)
