Chapter 1041: Emerald
Everyone was shocked.
“Oh my god, it’s really green!”
“And from the looks of it, it must be an extraordinary jade.”
The people who looked at Lin Yuelan as if she was a fool and those who were gloating at her misfortune immediately turned their gazes into envy, jealousy, and hatred.
Three taels of silver for a piece of jade. Even if it was a low-grade jade, it was still a profit.
This was because if this thing were sold directly to a jade shop, it would cost at least ten taels. Moreover, the quality of this jade was not low, so its value was definitely more than ten taels.
However, there were also some people who were sour grapes. They immediately poured cold water and said, “We only saw a small piece. The whole stone might be worthless. In fact, it is simply a piece of waste.”
“That’s true! Then let’s wait and see!”
Everyone began to watch again as if they were waiting for the results!
More and more people gathered around.
However, the scene was very quiet!
Lin Yuelan raised her eyebrows and continued to watch the woman rub the stone.
After the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, as more green showed through, many people fell silent.
“Heavens, this is an emerald!”
As the green color increased, those with sharp eyes immediately recognized that this was actually a piece of emerald that was worth an astronomical price!
With this shout, the scene was so quiet that only the sound of cleaning stones could be heard. However, it was soon followed by an exclamation.
Oh no, there were many exclamations.
They were even more excited than Lin Yuelan.
Ordinary people like them rarely saw emeralds, even if they gambled every day. There were even some who had never seen emeralds in their entire lives in South Cloud City.
Emeralds were held in the hands of the imperial aristocrats. They were priceless mainly because emeralds were too rare. They were simply a symbol of power!
Therefore, seeing such a large emerald with their own eyes, and it was an emerald that was cut out on the spot, how could they not be excited?
‘ Three taels of silver to get a piece of emerald at an astronomical price. This lady’s luck is really too good! ” At this moment, they could no longer feel jealous. They could only feel envy.
“If I had known that this was an emerald, I would have been willing to buy it even if it was 30,000 taels or 300,000 taels, let alone three taels!”
“Do you even need to say that? If I had known earlier, I would have bought it even if I had to use all my money.”
“It’s just a pity!”
Everyone sighed.
The most foolish person was probably the person who sold this stone.
He was coaxing the customer that this stone could produce jade, so it was definitely worth the price!
However, that was business, and he would say anything to make a sale. If he had known that this ugly black stone could produce a priceless emerald, he would not have sold it even if he had been offered 300,000 taels, let alone three taels!
However, he had sold it for three taels of silver.
In the end…
The stall owner beat his chest and stamped his feet in regret, but it was useless!
He couldn’t snatch back the things that were sold. Even if he wanted to, looking at the burly man standing behind him with a big knife on his waist, he could tell that his martial strength was not low. Could he defeat him?
Forget it. In business, there were losses and wins. Moreover, this person was lucky to have picked this material.
One had to know that this stone had already been placed there for more than three months, but no one had cared about it! He wanted to throw it away.
In the end, the moment she came to his stall, she fell in love with this stone. God should let her get rich.
After the stall owner lamented for a moment, he immediately remembered what Lin Yuelan had said before.
Lin Yuelan said to him, ” Boss, once I cut open this stone to reveal the jade inside, your stall’s business will definitely be booming. At that time, you can sell your stones to the highest bidder. The higher the bid, the better. However, Boss, you can’t forget my credit, so I want 70% of the money. If you agree, I’ll cut the stones now. If you don’t agree, I’ll just leave.. You won’t get anything!”
