Sima You Yue knew about watermelon stones. It was shaped like a watermelon, but there were only a few spirit stones inside that looked like watermelon seeds. There wasn't much point in opening it because those watermelon seeds had no use at all. They weren't worth much either. Those that opened it were usually a huge loss.

He didn't expect the shop assistant to be so honest and not hide this matter.
She waved at him and said, "We'll choose for ourselves. You can leave."
She knew that these shop assistants would get a commission from selling the raw stones, so they worked very hard to promote their products to everyone. However, the most they could do was give some suggestions. They did not dare to make decisions for the customers. Otherwise, if the customers who opened the White Stone were to blame them, they would be in trouble.
"Do you want to try, or do you want me to help you choose?" Third Mo asked.
"Let me try first." Sima Youyue looked at the stones and was eager to try.
This was different from the ores in the spirit pagoda. She could sense the situation inside and directly open spirit stones. However, this was different. These ores had no connection to her, so she couldn't directly see the situation inside. However, she could use what she had learned from the book to see how far she had progressed.
She squatted down and picked from the pile of stones. She touched one, looked at another, and finally chose an oval-shaped stone the size of a human head.
Third Mo's eyes lit up when he saw the bare rock she chose, but he didn't say anything.
The person who told him not to choose here had just finished paying the bill and was about to find someone to open the stone. When he turned around, he saw Sima Youyue walking over with a bare stone. He suddenly cried out, "Hey, you brat, why did you choose a watermelon stone?"
He regretted it after he shouted. Because of his voice, many people looked in his direction.
He lowered his voice and said, "I-I'm sorry, but if you choose this, there will only be some watermelon seeds. It's not worth it. This stone costs ten thousand mid-grade crystal stones! "
Sima Youyue did not expect to meet such a warm-hearted person here. Although he attracted a lot of attention, she was not angry. She said, "It's okay. It's my first time choosing this. I'll take it as practice."
After saying that, she smiled at the man and walked towards the counter by the small lake.
That person saw that Sima You Yue was insistent on her choice, so he didn't say anything. However, he didn't leave either. He hugged his own naked stone and followed behind Sima You Yue. He wanted to see what kind of outcome she would have.
Not only him, but many others also wanted to see Sima Youyue make a fool of herself. Over the years, watching others open stones was also a form of entertainment.
Sima You Yue placed the bare stone on the table. The lady who was paying the bill was rather surprised when she saw that she had actually chosen a watermelon stone. Especially since she had heard someone warn her that this was a watermelon stone. She didn't expect that she would actually choose this.
"Young Master, are you sure you want to buy this?" The woman asked subconsciously.
Sima Youyue nodded and said, "I'll take this."
"Alright then. This stone is worth 18,000 mid-grade crystal stones. "The woman said with a smile.
Sima Youyue took out her crystal card and transferred 18,000 yuan.
The woman passed the card to her with both hands and asked with a smile, "Young Master, do you want to open the stone?"
Sima Youyue nodded.
The woman pointed at the place where the stones were being opened and said, "You can go over there."
"Alright." Sima Youyue hugged the stone and went to the place where the stones were being opened.
There were two stone opening masters there. Both of them were opening stones for others. Sima Youyue hugged her stone and watched from the side. From time to time, she would talk to the three men beside her.
"Do you think the stone in his hand will come out?" Third Mo used his elbow to nudge Sima Youyue's arm and asked.
Without waiting for Sima Youyue to speak, the stone opening master had already started cutting. According to the man's request, he cut a third of the stone. The small part that fell to the ground was white without any green. On the other hand, the larger ones had a faint hint of green in them.
"It's green!" Everyone present exclaimed softly. They were not as loud as the people outside.
"The next cut will be from here." The owner of the stone gestured on the other side of the stone.
Sima Youyue looked at the stone and said, "What a pity …"
"What's a pity?" Fatty Qu and the rest came over. They happened to hear what she said and asked.
"This stone looks like it will come out with a spirit stone. However, for some reason, there isn't anything good inside." Sima Youyue explained softly to them.
"Really?"
"Yes." Sima Youyue nodded. She was very sure that this stone would only come out with a glass spirit stone.
A glass spirit stone meant that it would only come out with a thin piece of spirit stone. Even if the quality of this spirit stone was good, it would not be worth much.
The man who was squatting on the ground turned around and glared at Sima Youyue. He did not say anything. However, the woman beside him scolded Sima Youyue, "Don't speak if you don't know anything!"
Sima Youyue did not expect that when everyone's attention was on the stone opening, there were still people who heard her speak.
If they did not speak, then so be it. After all, this had nothing to do with her.
However, just as Sima You Yue said, that piece of stone that everyone was optimistic about at the beginning really only had a thin layer of spirit stones. The quality of the spirit stone was not bad. However, because it was too thin, it did not contain much spirit energy. Hence, it was not very useful.
The owner of the stone was rather calm. He stood up and patted the stone fragments off his body. The woman beside him pulled a long face and was very unhappy.
"Next." The master in charge of opening the stone shouted.
Sima Youyue saw that no one else was going up. She walked over and placed the stone in her hand on the stone opening table.
"Watermelon Stone?" Everyone present laughed when they saw her stone. The woman from before laughed even louder.
Seeing how calm she was, the stone opening master asked, "Young Master, is this your first time gambling on stones?"
Sima Youyue nodded.
In the past, she had always seen others gamble. This was really her first time.
"Young Master, have you heard of Watermelon Stone?"
"I've heard of it." Sima Youyue said, "But I want this one. I've already paid the money. I can't go back on my word. "
The stone opening master shook his head. He took the stone and touched it carefully for a while.
"You want to open a Xiyou spirit stone with a watermelon head? You're really ignorant! "The woman mocked.
"Third Sister, don't be rude!" The man scolded.
"It's true. Everyone told her that Watermelon Stone would not open a good stone. She didn't believe it and insisted on opening it. I dare to bet that she won't open a good spirit stone! If she does, I'll write my name backwards. "The woman said unhappily.
"Young Master, how do you plan to open it?" The stone opening master asked.
"Master, wait a moment." Sima Youyue stood up and looked at the woman. "You want to bet with me?"
"That's right!" The woman stepped forward and looked at Sima Youyue with contempt. "If you open a good spirit stone, I'll give you double the price!"
