141: Chapter 141 Top-Grade Jade 141: Chapter 141 Top-Grade Jade Hearing He Yun’s ridicule, Ye Haochuan frowned slightly and glanced askance, saying indifferently, “Whether I can gamble on stones or not is none of your business, is it?”
He Yun harrumphed and said nothing more.
Ye Haochuan couldn’t be bothered with her.
Just then, Li Wenfeng asked again, “Brother Ye, are you really sure about choosing this stone?”
Ye Haochuan chuckled softly, “Anyway, we have a rich sucker to foot the bill.
Now it’s purely for fun.
Even if we cut all the jadeite raw stones here, we won’t lose anything.
Besides, this raw stone is only two million.”
Xiao Haii, Li Wenfeng, and Liu Qing’er all smiled knowingly.
Thirty billion, after all.
Even if all the stones were cut, there would probably be leftovers.
Li Wenfeng chuckled softly, “It’s Aunt Haimai’s beauty trap that’s powerful, dazzling Boss Zheng, that old lecher, and making him lose thirty billion in a flash, heh heh.”
“You and your big mouth,” Xiao Haii said in embarrassnt, spitting at him.
Li Wenfeng laughed heartily, unconcerned.
The crowd gathered around saw him laughing exaggeratedly and all looked bewildered.
At that ti, the stone-cutting master brought over the stone-cutting machine and began cutting on site.
Hisss…
Amidst the roar of the machine, a thick white mist enveloped the stone-cutting machine.
Everyone shook their heads, seeing no green.
“This stone cuts pretty well, spewing out white ashes as pale as this pretty boy’s skin, haha!” Boss Zheng laughed.
Following that, He Yun burst out laughing, “If you don’t understand stone gambling, you should stay out of the lilight.
Now, there go two million down the drain.”
In the lead of Boss Zheng and He Yun, others also began to ridicule!
“A stone of such poor quality is not just a little off the mark; even the stone’s skin doesn’t have any patterns, how could it possibly turn green?”
“These young folks nowadays, silly and money-rich.
Instead of choosing stones of good quality, they pick those that couldn’t possibly turn green.”
“What can you do?
They’ve got plenty of money, and they’ve got Miss Xiao of the Xiao Family to back them up.
Don’t forget, just now Miss Xiao earned a cool thirty billion without lifting a finger!”
…
Listening to the voices of discussion all around, Ye Haochuan stood unshaken as if Mount Tai was collapsing in front of him, exuding certitude.
Ti passed by, second by second…
A minute later, a green mist wafted up, driven by the saw teeth of the stone-cutting machine, erging from the stone’s skin.
The entire crowd expressed surprise: “Eh!
Has it turned green?”
Those who had been mocking and scoffing suddenly shut their mouths.
Boss Zheng rubbed his eyes vigorously and after a look, couldn’t resist taking a jab, “Pff, it’s just the first cut.
What if it disappears with the next cut?”
However, when the stone-cutting master made the next cut, it imdiately slapped him in the face.
It was green.
Boss Zheng’s expression turned rather ugly.
But with the next cut, a puff of white mist suddenly arose.
“Look, I told you so.
How could it possibly be, with such poor quality of this raw stone, it’s just a surface green?” Boss Zheng began to swagger again.
He Yun also breathed a sigh of relief, scoffing, “There, two million really went down the drain now.”
Others joined in with a fresh wave of mocking and ridiculing.
Xiao Haii, Li Wenfeng, and Liu Qing’er also felt a wave of disappointnt.
But Ye Haochuan was unperturbed and said in a deep voice, “Continue cutting.”
The Stone-Cutting Master sighed, thinking this young man hasn’t given up yet.
Well, let’s continue, otherwise his heart won’t be at peace until he reaches the Yellow River.
Chi chi…
The Stone Cutting Machine carried on at high speed, and just when everyone had lost hope, suddenly, a mist of purple erged.
“No way?”
Everyone was shocked.
Purple mist floating from the Raw Stone – could there be another mystery within this rock?
Everyone held their breath and widened their eyes in anticipation.
At this mont, the Stone-Cutting Master was also excited.
He had been cutting stones his whole life, but had never uncovered sothing purple.
In his experience, this was definitely Glass-Type Jade of the highest quality.
After consulting with Ye Haochuan, the Stone-Cutting Master switched from cutting to polishing, and gradually, the skin of the stone peeled off to reveal a massive piece of Jadeite rough before everyone’s eyes.
The Stone-Cutting Master, excited, took out a strong flashlight and shone it on the rough, evaluating as he went: “Bright and lustrous, Glass-Type, violet in color with floating greens, clean base, no cotton, no cracks…
It’s top-grade!”
All around, people exclaid nonstop: “My God, this is the unheard-of Glass-Type Floating Green on Violet Jadeite.”
Boss Zheng really wanted to slap himself hard.
Dammit, what is ant by a sudden turn of events?
This is it!
Although He Yun didn’t understand jade gambling, seeing everyone’s exaggerated reactions, she knew that Ye Haochuan had hit the jackpot, and to an outrageous extent!
Li Wenfeng rushed over excitedly and rubbed his hands vigorously: “We’re rich, we’re rich!
This is a unique piece of Top-Grade Jade in the world, Brother Ye, you’ve made a massive gamble.
I’m telling you, just on size alone, this piece could be worth at least fifty billion!”
Fifty billion!
Those around couldn’t help but gasp in shock.
Boss Zheng’s face turned ashen while He Yun almost rolled her eyes back in a faint.
Her ex-boyfriend had completely struck it rich.
With the appearance of the Top-Grade Glass-Type Floating Green on Violet Jadeite rough, many people offered high prices trying to buy it from Ye Haochuan, but he responded arrogantly with only a few words: “Not for sale!
I want to give it as a gift!”
Everyone was sowhat speechless.
Such a premium Jadeite rough, and he wasn’t selling it for money, but gifting it?
His brain must be waterlogged.
Xiao Haii, however, looked at him full of surprise and delight, saying, “Haochuan, you really want to give it…
to soone?”
She actually knew that Ye Haochuan was planning to give this piece of Top-Grade Jadeite rough to her grandfather, but she still spoke with so caution.
How could Ye Haochuan not see what she was thinking and chuckled, “Of course it’s not for nothing.
I want to exchange it with Old Master Xiao for his most cherished treasure.”
“What treasure?” Xiao Haii asked, puzzled.
“Of course, it’s to exchange for Elder Xiao’s precious granddaughter!” Ye Haochuan laughed heartily, scooping her up in his arms.
Only then did Xiao Haii realize what her grandfather’s cherished treasure ntioned by him was – it was herself!
In an instant, she was both embarrassed and delighted, her cheeks flushing with shyness as she gave him a coquettish glance: “You’re annoying.”
“Ha ha, there are many who find annoying, Sister i, you take the top spot.”
Ye Haochuan laughed out loud, and without waiting for her to react, he leaned down and firmly pressed his lips onto her delicate and dripping red lips.
Xiao Haii was struck as if by an electric shock, her body trembling, her mind a blank void!
At first, she instinctively resisted, but thinking of how he was willing to give up the King of Jadeite for her, what reason did she have not to trust him with herself?
So gradually, she let go, not thinking about the peculiar glances around her, not thinking about everyone’s various discussions, as if at this mont, in this earthly realm, only she and her beloved were roaming through Mount Tai.
After an unknown amount of ti, their lips parted, and Ye Haochuan looked down at Xiao Haii in his arms with a teasing smile: “Not satisfied yet?
Everyone’s watching!”
Xiao Haii cried out in embarrassnt, coming back to her senses and quickly climbing down from him, her entire face flushed red.
However, instead of any mocking, everyone present unanimously offered their applause in blessing, resonating for a long ti.
Ye Haochuan kept thanking them, but after a while, the smile on his face slowly began to fade…
