Chapter 2113: Chapter 2113: Eight Trigrams Array (Part 3)
“Please.” Manager Tan didn’t hesitate, after all, with Fa Qingyang present, these people wouldn’t skip out on the bill.
There weren’t many stones on the third floor, and it was apparent that they had been carefully selected. Each one was placed separately on different trays, all lined with red silk cloth underneath.
Unfortunately, at a glance, only a little more than half had any green light shining through.
Intending to buy all that had green light, yet it felt too ostentatious, so chose ten pieces instead, of which four did not have green light, while the rest had a large area of green light shining through. These would undoubtedly yield top-quality jadeite.
After circling around and selecting no more stones, ready to head downstairs, Yang Ruxin finally understood why he felt sothing odd upon entering. The stones in the hall weren’t just piled randomly, but arranged in the style of the Eight Trigrams. In other words, the hall was effectively a stone formation.
Dao Xuzi and Tang Wanqian understood formations, so they had taught him a few things.
“Xinxin?” Gu Qingheng gently called out.
Yang Ruxin snapped back to reality, then proceeded into the hall, unable to help but twitch the corner of his mouth. Dao Xuzi and the other elders had piled a heap of stones right in the middle of the hall, making for quite a spectacle.
However, after taking another look at the seemingly randomly stacked stones around the hall, then at the pile chosen by Dao Xuzi and the others, Yang Ruxin suddenly laughed. His master had discovered the secret of the hall long ago, placing the heap of stones directly in the Qian position, thus breaking the stone formation in the hall completely. If the person arranging this formation were present, they’d undoubtedly be exasperated.
“Xinxin, these will definitely yield green.” Dao Xuzi looked at Yang Ruxin with great excitent, “Really, I have a particularly good feeling this ti.”
Yu Qingge rolled her eyes at Dao Xuzi, “You had a good feeling yesterday too.” Yet she still picked two stones.
“You little lass, can you not bring up the past?” Dao Xuzi frowned, “Even a horse can misstep, can’t it?”
Yang Ruxin chuckled helplessly but didn’t refuse, “Alright, let’s buy them all then.” With that, he signaled Chai Qin to pay with silver.
This ti, the total amount for the selected stones exceeded ten thousand taels.
Manager Tan was happy inside, and his attitude beca even more respectful. “Madam, would you like to cut the stones?” The cost for cutting is extra.
“Yes.” Yang Ruxin nodded.
As a result, everyone present gathered around again. After all, there weren’t many custors who would buy so many stones at once. Many people, even if wealthy, would only dabble a little; who would dare make such a large commitnt?
And Dao Xuzi and the others didn’t disappoint Yang Ruxin, out of a heap of stones, only four yielded green, on average each person still got one.
The group was thoroughly disheartened.
And among the two stones Yu Qingge chose, one had green.
That lass’s luck is really good.
Continuing to cut the stones Yang Ruxin selected, six in a row revealed nothing, and the surrounding people began to sigh, thinking Yang Ruxin’s luck was really too poor.
“Forget it, stop opening.” Yang Ruxin could only sigh and then stopped the master, “I’ll take what’s left back and open them myself.”
“What if one of these yields?” Manager Tan smiled like a wagging dog’s tail.
“Hehe.” Yang Ruxin awkwardly smiled, “What if they don’t, will you return my silver?”
