Chapter 1064 It’s an A grade jade!
Chu Nanzhi paused and then said with a slightly grim voice, " And if the stone turns out to be dud then Madam Song would have to make Fu Ring kowtow to me and apologize properly." Chu Nanzhi did not feel like there was anything wrong with Fu Rong apologizing to her. She might be an illegitimate daughter but she had a status of her own as well, today Fu Rong had slapped her in front of so many people, how could she leave the matter so easily?
Hearing her words, Master Liu clicked his tongue and said, " The young women of this world are really arrogant. Not at all like the ones in my times, when I was young…the girls in my time were courteous. They did not dare to raise their voice in front of an elder."
" Thats because she hasn't been taught properly," sneered Song Yan as she looked at Chu Nanzhi. " However, after today she would learn not to speak recklessly."
After she was done with her conversation with Master Liu, she turned to look at Chu Nanzhi and nodded, " Sure. If this is what you want then I will agree with it."
She had no reason to not agree to this bet!
Song Yan turned to look at the master who had stopped at some point when she was speaking to Chu Nanzhi and said, " Why are you stopping? Continue cutting."
As soon as her words fell many experts shook their heads, they could not believe that a woman Song Yan's age was goaded by some young girls like this, she was really impulsive. If she had listened to them she could have gotten half the price of the original stone.
Several thousand were thrown away for the sake of pride. How wasteful!
Chu Nanzhi on the other hand looked at the stone with rejuvenated energy. She was very much looking forward to seeing how Song Yan would get embarrassed later on and how wonderful Fu Rong's expression would be when she had to lower her head and apologize to her. In the past, Fu Rong had acted like a devil in front of her but now she would be taught a nice lesson!
Even Feng Ruoxuan was happy, she was really eager to see Song Yan's marvellous defeat. She gloated silently while watching Song Yan excitedly. This time Song Yan was bound to lose, how difficult was it to get an imperial jade? Did she really think that she was that fortunate?
Hehe, even though this store was one of the biggest stores in the capital, it only had a single imperial jade taken out from the stone ten years ago! At the same time, she felt quite satisfied with Chu Nanzhi, she was quite smart to add the clause of imperial jade, as long as it was not imperial jade they could see Fu Rong's embarrassed appearance!
Fu Rong on the other hand felt like her heart was in her throat, she too knew that it was impossible to get hold of an imperial jade so easily!
Song Yan on the other hand was the calmest, she did not act like she was under pressure as the master stone continued to cut the stone. Instead, it was the master cutter who suddenly felt pressurized, seeing the woman acting so calm, he couldn't help but wonder if the stone really had an imperial jade. Thinking like this the master cutter immediately slowed down.
In a blink of an eye, twenty minutes passed, the master cutter took great measures to make sure that the stone did not receive any damage and soon a hint of green was revealed. Seeing this the master cutter felt his heart tremble and he slowed down even more, soon the stone was cut and an imperial jade of the A grade quality was revealed in front of the crowd.
Not to mention the cutter, even the crowd was stunned. There was really an imperial jade inside the stone?
On the other side, Fu Rong did not know what to do. Should she cry out of happiness or should she cry in frustration? Her sister-in-law was so lucky, she did not have any experience in stone cutting but she actually caught such a good deal! And she despite wasting away the money that she had been handed by her brother failed again and again!
This was a C grade stone and yet it revealed an A grade imperial jade! If this was not good luck what was!?
Compared with the stupefied looks of the people in the crowd, some people were beyond devastated. Some of such people were Dong Xuelian, Feng Ruoxuan and Chu Nanzhi. Especially Dong Xuelian, she was the one who had this stone in her cart but before making a payment she handed it to Song Yan thinking that she would laugh at her but instead, the stone turned out to be an imperial jade!
She was the one who was supposed to laugh but the one who was now laughing was Song Yan!
But more than that the fact that she lost such a great sum of money made Dong Xuelian cough out blood.
When she looked at how big and beautiful the jade was, Dong Xuelian felt like her entire body was swaying in a violent storm. She almost fainted as she coughed out a mouthful of blood and muttered, " How could this be possible!"
She was not the only one, Chu Nanzhi was just as shocked. She looked at the beautiful and clear jade and shouted, "It is impossible! You must have done something! You are a celestial master, so you must have played some trick!"
At this point Chu Nanzhi did not care about anything, she only knew that if she did not make Song Yan the villain, she would be the one who would suffer!
Hearing Chu Nanzhi's words, Song Yan was rather calm. She smiled at her and then said, " Miss Chu is wrong. This stone was given to me by my dear fellow Daoist." She pointed to Dong Xuelian and said, " If celestial masters could see through the stones then Miss Dong would not have handed me this jade, isn't that right, Miss Dong?"
