Chapter 9 There Finally Was a Jade Inside the Stone!
Thus the tens of thousands of dollars went down the drain.
“Just continue cutting,” Yao Cheng said.
Five or six stones were cut in succession. However, all of these stones were empty inside. At this time, even Yao Cheng could not help changing his attitude. Though as the saying goes, gambling on stones was a dead end, several jade stones in a row were actually all without the jades inside. Honestly speaking, he was a bit too unlucky.
“Should I continue cutting?” Sweeping his eyes over these three people with Yao Cheng included, the stone-cutting master asked gently.
“Yes!” Gritting his teeth, Yao Cheng replied.
Although to him, over one hundred thousand dollars was just a drop in the bucket, he would not be in a good mood at all if he continued losing like this.
It turned out that no jades were found after all the jade stones had been cut. Seeing this, Yao Cheng also could not help shaking his head and said, “It seems that I am not lucky at all.”
Yaocheng’s jade stones were all cut. In the end, only the one belonging to Wang Feng remained. Originally, this stone-cutting master had intended to deal with this stone with a clean cut.
But at this time, Wang Feng opened his mouth in a hurry, “Wait.”
Was it a joke? Actually, there was a jade which was the size of a fist inside the jade stone. If the stone were cut directly, then the jade inside would definitely be damaged.
Though the jades which were cut into pieces could also be sold, their relative value would be greatly reduced, which would be shrunken by at least more than a half.
“What is it?” The stone-cutting master gave Wang Feng a glimpse, who felt somewhat uncomfortable for being interrupted.
“This jade stone is for stone-sharpening. Not stone-cutting,” Wang Feng replied.
Since it was the client’s request, the stone-cutting master found it hard to refute further. However, he deeply despised Wang Feng already, from the bottom of his heart.
It was just an abandoned stone and that was all. Moreover, this stone was bumpy and of poor color, which could be counted as a waste at first glance. Virtually, dealing with this stone via stone-sharpening was simply a waste of time.
“Wang Feng, from my perspective, the probability of a jade showing up in this stone would be at less than ten percent,” Bei Yunxue opened her mouth at this time, which indicated that she actually held doubts about this stone.
“I agree. I’d say, let’s just cut it as well. Based on my current bad luck, could there be any good stuff among the things I had picked out?” Yao Cheng standing by also repeated in agreement.
Wang Feng did not say anything. A smile appeared on his face.
Seeing his pretty cryptical look, Bei Yunxue rolled her eyes in spite of herself.
The efforts stone-sharpening would take indeed were more than those of stone-cutting. About five minutes had elapsed, and there was still no signs of jades showing up.
Right at this time, even the stone-cutting master showed a little impatience.
However, right after a minute later, all of a sudden, the stone-cutting master changed his look and lowered his head to stare at the stone in his hands hurriedly.
Yes, the jade was finally showing up!
“Wang Feng, congratulations.” Seeing there was a jade inside the jade stone, Bei Yunxue also opened her mouth with a faint smile on her face.
“This little brother, I will buy your stone at the price of ten thousand dollars, what do you think?”
Seeing there was a jade showing up inside the stone on Wang Feng’s side, a middle-aged man moved close and inquired. His voice which was pretty loud consequently attracted many people over instantly.
Gambling on stones actually was an extremely exciting and alarmingly dangerous process. So these people all crowded around in a hurry.
“Little brother, I will offer one hundred and fifty thousand dollars. You give me the stone and we can make a deal right away.” Seeing the stone in stone-cutting master’s hands, another man said.
“Sorry, I don’t want to sell it.”
Wang Feng refused their ‘kindness’ with regret showing up in his face.
For a jade the size of a fist, its relative value could be at least up to hundreds of thousands of dollars. They actually intended to purchase this stone at a price of over one hundred thousand dollars, which was absolutely impossible!
