The seemingly huge and full jade surprisingly, surprisingly, let the light pass through easily!
Through a jade as thick as a basin, you could clearly see the person on the other side.
What kind of concept is this?
"Is it that the water content of this jade is so sufficient that it’s crystal clear to this extent?"
"Or is it a new variety with exceptionally high purity that we’ve never seen before?"
A couple of clueless young men were still joking around, asking with a laugh.
The faces of guests with a little bit of gambling stone knowledge changed instantly.
Out of respect for the Treasure Appraiser S, no one spoke up first.
Chu Qiaoen looked at the crowd’s complex expressions, clueless and anxious: "What’s going on, what kind of amazing jade do I have? Are you all so stunned you can’t speak properly? Is it some kind of old mine jadeite or..."
An elderly cold snort interrupted Chu Qiaoen.
"This is not any new variety, nor old mine jadeite; it’s just an ordinary empty shell low-grade icy jadeite."
"The reason it seemed like it had a good water head earlier was just due to the illusion of surface green!"
"The reason it is now translucent is merely because it’s empty inside!"
Professor Feng Tang, usually silent and reserved, spoke startling words, piercing straight to the heart.
Even though Chu Qiaoen understood nothing, she staggered a bit:
"What? Hollow? Then, then I spent ten million, and all I bought was a layer of jadeite skin? And it’s worthless low-grade icy type too?"
The people present nodded silently, offering her their sympathy.
This layer of jadeite skin, at best, is worth one hundred thousand.
Spending ten million only to get a hundred thousand...
Tsk tsk, the infamous spendthrift of the Chu Family lives up to her reputation.
Chu Qiaoen, unwilling to accept reality, staggered towards Treasure Appraiser S: "Everyone says you’re the most skilled treasure appraiser in the Empire, tell me, they’re all talking nonsense, that old fogey was lying, right?"
Gu Shiyin’s cloak was almost torn off by Chu Qiaoen, nearly revealing her true identity.
Almost exposed her cover!
Lucky she reacted quickly, swiftly backing away, speaking calmly with a suppressed voice: "This customer, please accept reality, stone gambling itself is risky, every customer who enters signs a waiver, accepting the risks to participate. If you play, you must be able to lose, please... accept fate with grace."
These words were not wrong.
But, but why does it feel off somehow?
Chu Qiaoen took a long time to respond: "But, but before cutting, you clearly said this was the most outstanding stone in the whole place! You..."
The Treasure Appraiser S had already turned away from her, smiling as they asked Yin Hu: "Sir, would you like me to personally help you cut this stone?"
Yin Hu was taken aback.
A strange blush appeared on his face.
So strange, he only blushed in front of Gu Shiyin, yet tonight, he’s blushing at a woman he’s never met before.
It must be his first time stone gambling, he’s a bit nervous!
"Ahem, I would appreciate it." He averted his gaze, politely agreeing.
The Treasure Appraiser took the opportunity to go to original stone number 16 and busily went to work.
The crowd naturally followed, leaving the heartbroken and despairing Chu Qiaoen aside, unnoticed.
Only Xi Rubao walked by leisurely, deliberately playing with the pair of twin nine-colored tourmaline beads in his hand, enjoying the spectacle while stirring trouble—
"Hey, Miss Chu, I think your hollow green is pretty nice."
"What do you mean by that?"
"Just what it sounds like. This hollow shell jadeite matches perfectly with you, an empty-brained young missy, hahahaha!"
Xi Rubao laughed openly, his dissatisfaction completely vanished.
Leaving Chu Qiaoen frantically on the spot: "...!"
