Chi Shuyan finished admiring Yang Zhaoning’s twisted face and how the latter almost puked blood. She deliberately said, “Miss Yang, thank you so much. If it wasn’t for you earlier, I wouldn’t have gambled on this supreme-grade imperial jade!”
As soon as Chi Shuyan finished speaking, Yang Zhaoning directly spat out a mouthful of blood. She looked at the pure green again, before her eyes rolled back and she fainted from anger.
Zhang Feng reacted quickly and hurriedly supported her. His face wasn’t any better than Yang Zhaoning’s. He thought about how this supreme-grade imperial jade might have originally belonged to them, but that idiot, Yang Zhaoning, just had to give it away.
No matter how thick-skinned Zhang Feng was, when he recalled how he had just mocked the woman in front of him for gambling on this raw stone, and even said that he knew how to gamble and could teach her, he was too ashamed. He gritted his teeth in hatred and heartache as he supported Yang Zhaoning and turned around to leave.
Qi Hao, Lu Yunfeng, and Wang Xuewen were still in disbelief. Lu Yunfeng also gaped for a long time. He asked Chi Shuyan several times in a row, “Sister-in-law, you… you… really found imperial jade?”
Qi Hao and Lu Chengfu were also stupefied. “Sister-in-law, you… you… Is this really imperial jade?”
Chi Shuyan nodded and told the useless boys to calm down.
At that moment, in addition to Yang Zhaoning and Zhang Feng, whose faces were very ugly, the shopkeeper’s face was also very unsightly. He never thought that the black stone, which didn’t look like a raw jade stone at all, would actually contain imperial jade, and even supreme-grade imperial jade to boot. This green jade even looked twice as pure as the one that was opened more than a decade ago.
The shopkeeper couldn’t help but want to vomit blood when he saw the large chunk of imperial jade in the master cutter’s hand. The discovery of yet another piece of imperial jade could increase the shop’s reputation, but what was reputation, compared with the value of this supreme-grade imperial jade?
The shopkeeper was so regretful that his intestines turned green. Just now, he had even been secretly happy when he saw that this ‘ordinary stone’ which no one wanted had been sold. Who would have thought that this thing would completely turn out to be a treasure?
The shop owner’s lips moved a few times before he suddenly gritted his teeth and said, “Miss Chi, I’ll pay 70 million for this imperial jade!”
As soon as the shopkeeper said that, Chi Shuyan sneered in her heart. The stupefied people on the side started shouting out prices when they heard someone make an offer, and the minimum price directly hit 100 million, completely beating out the shopkeeper’s 70 million bid just now.
The bid finally reached 150 million before Chi Shuyan said anything. Lu Yunfeng was afraid that Haozi’s sister-in-law didn’t understand the market, and would sell off this treasure. This good thing was so pure and large. If it was auctioned off, it could fetch at least 500 million.
Although Chi Shuyan knew that stone gambling was profitable, when she heard Lu Yunfeng’s words, she also sucked in a deep breath. F*ck! Was she a tycoon now?
Chi Shuyan also directly refused the other people’s bids and expressed that she wouldn’t sell the jade. When the pure supreme-grade imperial jade was completely cut out, everyone stared blankly. It was the first time Chi Shuyan was experiencing the true charm of this jade.
At that moment, Li Yu suddenly said, “This royal one’s raw stone hasn’t been opened yet!”
Chi Shuyan knew that the situation had swung in her favor now; just a little more wouldn’t matter. She could protect the little guy, and without thinking, she handed over the stone which the little guy had been holding.
The master cutter’s expression was indescribable when he saw the raw stone. He wanted to say something, but he remembered how this young lady had been quite stubborn just now, so he didn’t say much and directly opened it.
On the side, Qi Hao turned his head and said to Xiao Le, “Xiao Le, why don’t you go and buy this kid some lollipops? What if it’s a bust and he starts crying again?”
