Hearing soone call her na, Gu Zhiqi glanced sideways and looked towards the person who made the sound.
Then, she saw a young man in a brown trench coat standing not far away. The young man had fair skin, delicate and handso features, and an air of elegance. At this mont, he was looking at Gu Zhiqi with a gentle yet distant expression.
Gu Zhiqi found him sowhat familiar, but... she couldn’t recall his na.
Finally, Gu Zhiqi looked at the young man and asked, "And you are?"
Hearing this, the young man froze slightly.
A few seconds later, after possibly thinking of sothing, the young man’s eyebrows twitched almost imperceptibly as he asked Gu Zhiqi, "What are you here for?"
Seeing the young man didn’t tell her his na, Gu Zhiqi didn’t mind much and simply replied, "Just browsing around."
After that, she shifted her gaze elsewhere to find the source of a cooling sensation.
Soon, she found it.
At the back door of the store, a few staff mbers were moving boxes, and the cool sensation was emanating from inside the boxes.
Upon seeing this, Gu Zhiqi’s eyes moved slightly. She turned to the young man and asked, "Are the contents of the boxes for sale?"
The boxes likely contained jade material, and it was jade with a very rich Spiritual Energy.
The young man was slightly stunned by Gu Zhiqi’s question and after a while said, "No."
Hearing this, a trace of disappointnt flashed in Gu Zhiqi’s eyes.
Noticing her disappointnt, the young man paused for a mont and asked her, "The boxes contain raw stone, do you want to buy?"
Upon hearing this, Gu Zhiqi looked up at the young man and then nodded to him.
The young man contemplated for two seconds and suddenly said to Gu Zhiqi, "The boxes contain raw stones that haven’t been cut yet. Once you choose one, I need to cut it first. If you can accept the price I offer afterward, I can sell you one piece."
The boxes contain mostly uncut raw stone, and these raw stones are top-quality materials from Ink City, known for jade stones.
This batch of raw stone ca out not long ago, and as they began selling it, it was nearing the Spring Festival. He purposely made a trip to Ink City to procure this batch of materials.
After rushing, he made it back just in ti for the first day of the new year.
Upon hearing this, Gu Zhiqi’s eyes moved slightly, "The price isn’t an issue, but I wish to choose myself."
Hearing this, the young man gently raised an eyebrow, a flicker of curiosity and exploration in his eyes.
Soon, the young man nodded to Gu Zhiqi, "Choose first, if you can accept the price I state, I will sell it to you."
Saying that, the young man led Gu Zhiqi to the batch of raw stone.
Stopping the people moving the raw stone, the young man opened the boxes for Gu Zhiqi to pick.
There were several boxes, so containing only one large raw stone, others piled with several pieces.
Gu Zhiqi only glanced and imdiately chose a piece that wasn’t very large but was incredibly rich in Spiritual Energy.
"This one."
The young man looked at the raw stone Gu Zhiqi pointed to, a flash of astonishnt in his eyes, and he glanced sideways at Gu Zhiqi.
The one she pointed to was a piece of uncut raw stone.
However, based on his experience, it should be an excellent ice type inside.
Does she also have expertise in raw stones or... is it rely luck?
Though puzzled within, he quickly restrained the surprise in his eyes, and said to the workers on the side, "Cut and peel it."
Although he could see it was good jade inside, he couldn’t set a price based on that alone; it needed to be cut and peeled first for valuation.
Upon hearing that, the staff imdiately took the selected raw stone to be cut for Gu Zhiqi.
