As soon as the sound of green rang out, the entire courtyard instantly boiled over. The excited cries of surprise were deafening, and some people even started applauding.
"Sigh, what a pity … Such a good piece of jade is ruined …"
It was only a palm-sized stone, and only one cut, and there was green. The stone-cutting master was careless. His first cut was four centimeters away from the raw stone. He covered the big piece and picked up the small piece. Surprisingly, there was green on both of the cuts!
"How is this possible? There's no way there's jade in it … "The experienced stone-cutting master was completely dumbfounded. He was holding two stones, one big and one small. They should be jade now. His face was pale as he mumbled to himself in disbelief.
This stone-cutting master's surname was Peng. He was an honest man and didn't like to speak. However, he was Yu Ding Xuan's top stone-cutting master. He was here to cut the King of Stones.
"Sigh, I haven't failed in so many years. I didn't expect to fail on this small stone …" To Master Peng, face was very important.
Compared to the excitement around them, there was an indescribable silence around Ling Yun's three carriages. Complete silence!
Not even the sound of breathing could be heard. Everyone held their breaths. Their eyes and mouths were opened as wide as they could. All of them were dumbfounded!
Of course, this didn't include Ling Yun, Long Wu, and Tie Xiaohu.
"Dog shit luck?!"
The Lord of Jade groaned and staggered. He almost couldn't stand straight. He felt as if a huge stone was pressing on his chest. It was as if the King of Stones had smashed into him.
The Lord of Jade's Yu Ding Xuan had been gambling on stones for many years. He had seen it all, but how could he be so lucky?
"There's jade in the first piece? Ice-type jade? " Han Laosan's face also turned deathly pale. After recovering from his shock, he shouted in a daze and suddenly rushed in the direction of the stone cutting without a care for anything else.
"I'll cut the stone …" Han Laosan shouted crazily. This person loved stones all his life. He knew them better than he knew himself. In the end, the stone that he thought would never have jade did!
"There's jade? It really turned green?! How is this possible? " Murong Feixue forgot to cover her gaping mouth as she looked in the direction of the stone cutting. She wanted to take a step forward, but she stopped and turned back to look at Ling Yun in shock.
This arrogant Ling Yun, who refused to listen to anyone's advice, what kind of luck did he have?!
Murong Wenshi and Song Zhengyang reacted faster than anyone else, especially Song Zhengyang. He felt as if he was struck by lightning, and his body shook violently!
Why? That was because Song Zhengyang knew that this wasn't the first stone Ling Yun had picked, but the second. Song Zhengyang was confident that the stone Ling Yun picked from Boss Qiu had jade in it, and the water quality was very good!
It wasn't dog sh * t luck to have it happen twice. No matter what method Ling Yun used, even if he was pretending to be weak, it proved one thing: Ling Yun never missed!
Song Zhengyang looked at Ling Yun as though he was a monster. He was so shocked that he couldn't speak for a long time.
"A hothead? Was there something wrong with his mind? Bullsh * t! "Song Zhengyang thought to himself.
At the same time, he was looking forward to the news of the stone cutting. It was a little slower this time.
Because the stone-cutting master had changed, Han Laosan personally handled the cutting. He used a painstaking skill, rubbing the stone.
Everyone held their breath and focused on the lead-ball sized piece of jade in Han Laosan's hands. They wanted to see if there would be jade.
"I see the fog … oh my god, there's green in the fog, there's going to be jade again …"
"There's fog after just one centimeter …"
"This is definitely a good bet … That kid is going to make a fortune …"
"Boss Han, please be steady with your hand, don't ruin this piece of jade again …"
Han Laosan was sweating profusely when he saw the fog. His palms were wet, and his hands were trembling uncontrollably.
He thought of a terrible thing. No one would be that lucky!
The grinding machine made a buzzing sound, and there was silence again. Three minutes later, there was another exclamation. "Oh my god, there's jade again, the water quality is so high!"
"It's glass type this time!"
"F * ck, it's such a big piece, and only two centimeters were scraped off … This is going against the natural order …"
"It's a hundred percent accuracy!"
Even without the King of Stones, people were still going crazy. There were plenty of stones that had jade in them, but it was extremely rare to find such a high-grade jade in any two raw jade stones. In Qingshui City's Antique Market, there were only three people who could do it.
Song Zhengyang, Han Laosan, and the Lord of Jade!
But even for them, they had to choose carefully among the raw jadeite stones that had a high probability of producing jade. Even so, it was only a possibility.
"Oh my god, this guy is amazing! Too amazing! This luck … I'm so envious! "
"I was just saying that he was arrogant, but it turns out that he's not!"
"I think so too, but there might be jade in the next raw stone …"
"I think so too, but that's impossible. How can there be such good luck in this world? You can even buy a lottery ticket with that kind of luck until the lottery center closes! "
The second raw jade stone also contained green, and it was of the glass type, the best type of jade. At this time, the gazes of the surrounding people towards Ling Yun had changed. They were filled with a kind of fanaticism!
When Han Laosan cut open the raw stone that was the size of a lead ball, he found a glass type jade that was the size of an apple. The water source was very high, and the texture was pure. The green color was even and soft, and the color was translucent. The green made people's hearts tremble!
"This can be directly carved into an apple or a longevity peach. However, if it's carved into a longevity peach, although it's more gimmicky and can easily be sold at a sky-high price, more jade will be wasted …"
Some of the stone gamblers who knew the ropes swallowed their saliva violently and said excitedly.
Song Zhengyang's head buzzed with excitement when the second stone was cut open. His body swayed a few times before he regained his balance!
Song Zhengyang already knew that the five raw stones that Ling Yun asked him to take away would all contain jade. In fact, each of the three carts of raw stones that Ling Yun picked might contain high-grade jade!
Wouldn't he be making a crazy profit from this?
"Ling Yun, you have to sell the jadeite that you cut out to our Tianxi Pavilion …"
There was no need to mention Murong Wenshi's excitement. He had lost several times in stone gambling and lost tens of millions of yuan. His store's supply was about to run out. Now that he had cut out jade, how could he not be the first to benefit?
"Grandpa Murong, don't worry. I've already said that I'm buying raw stones. It doesn't matter if there's jade in them or not. I'm just giving them to you. It'll be too distant if I say that I'm selling them …" Ling Yun giggled.
Murong Feixue was stunned once again! This time, she was completely stunned. She was so shocked that she couldn't describe it!
The third stone didn't contain green, but jade. It was also of the glass type, Sheep-Fat White Jade!
The fourth …
The fifth …
The crowd gradually quietened down. No one spoke, no one praised, and no one applauded anymore …
There was no need. The five raw stones that were called waste all contained jade and high-grade jade. Their value had increased by more than ten times!
One cut of heaven was luck, two was awesome, but what about five? It could only be a miracle.
There were more than two hundred stones in three carts. Based on sixty million yuan, that would be an average of three hundred thousand yuan per stone. How much would it be if all of them contained jade?
Moreover, Ling Yun still had the King of Stones. Thousands of people turned their heads in three different directions the moment the fifth stone was cut.
Some of them looked at Ling Yun, some looked at the three carriages full of stones, and most of them looked at the King of Stones!
"Will there be jade?"
"It should be, right?"
"All five of them have jade, it's a hundred percent accuracy …"
"Such a big stone, even bigger than the urns I use to store grain in my village. There should be some jade in it, right?"
"It's really going to be a treasure!"
"But he won't let us cut it …"
The Lord of Jade and Song Zhengyang didn't move from the beginning to the end. Both of their gazes were locked onto Ling Yun, but the meaning behind their gazes was much more subtle.
What a mistake! Ling Yun had picked up a big bargain. These three carts of uncut jade and more than two hundred stones …
The bitterness in the Lord of Jade's heart became a sea of bitterness. He stared at Ling Yun silently and didn't say a word.
Song Zhengyang looked at Ling Yun with a crazed, passionate, and excited gaze. It was as though Ling Yun was a piece of emerald green imperial jade!
"This brat is too heaven-defying. Just a casual move of his is already a miracle …"
Han Laosan's footsteps were light as he led the four or five workers back. He walked all the way to Ling Yun and bowed to Ling Yun with his skinny figure.
"I've played with stones all my life, and I've always thought that I understand stones better than I understand myself. Now I know that there's always someone better than you. I'm impressed!"
Ling Yun hurriedly stepped aside and personally pulled Han Laosan up. He giggled and said, "I don't deserve that. Boss Han, I've already said that I only bought stones. It was you who insisted on opening them, so I had no choice. It's really too much of a coincidence. Perhaps out of these three carts, only these five have jade?"
No one believed Ling Yun's words anymore. How could there be such a coincidence?
After a moment of silence, all the onlookers, be it the jewelry merchants, the stone gambling fanatics, or the people who rushed in to watch the show, burst into thunderous applause.
"King of Stones!"
"King of Stones!"
"King of Stones!"
The deafening sound caused ripples to form on the surface of Qingshui Lake a kilometer away. It was earth-shattering!
Judging from the roar, these people would chase Ling Yun all the way to his house if he left without cutting the king of stones! (To be continued.)
