Chapter 71: Jade!

When Gu Qingchen was leaving, Shen Dongyang took the opportunity to take a look at the raw stones that Gu Qingchen had chosen. One of the raw stones had a good appearance and seemed to contain jade, while the other had an average appearance and it did not look like it had jade.

The other one was even worse off. The difference in quality was so great that it was obvious that only a newbie would choose such these raw stones.

“You’ve chosen all three of them, and you’re saying that you can choose any one of them to compete with. Why don’t you let me choose one of them? It’ll be fair that way. What do you think?”

Hehe, Gu Qingchen glanced at Shen Dongyang. This person’s thoughts were basically written all over his face. She did not need to read his mind to know what he was thinking.

However, since he wanted to go against her, she did not want to stop him.

“Whatever, I have no objections.”

When the surrounding people heard this, they immediately felt that this little girl was really too silly. She wanted to compete with an expert with such attitude. Was she out of her mind?

It was too ridiculous.

Shen Dongyang looked at the three raw stones. It seemed like he was choosing the raw stone, but in reality, he had already made up his mind.

Of course, he could not choose the raw stones with good quality. He did not choose the raw stone with poorest stone either. If he chose it, he would probably be accused by the people around him of bullying a child, and they would think that he won unjustly.

Hence, he might as well choose the ordinary raw stone. At the very least, it would not make people think that he was unkind.

“Let’s go with this one.”

Shen Dongyang seemed to point at the ordinary raw stone. As expected, when the people around saw it, no one said that he was unkind.

Instead, it made everyone feel that Shen Dongyang was not a bad person and did not choose the raw stone that had a bad quality.

Seeing everyone’s eyes, Shen Dongyang felt a little light-headed. He would make these people speechless.

Gu Qingchen smiled playfully. As expected, it was almost as she had expected.

But this was better. It would be more exciting later.

“Okay, let’s take this one. Boss, help us transport these few raw stones to the cutter. I’ll also take the other two raw stones. I want to cut them all.”

The boss quickly found someone. A few strong men worked together to move the raw stones to the special transport vehicle, and then moved the raw stone to the side of the raw stone cutter.

Because they had to cut the raw stones on the spot, Gu Qingchen and Shen Dongyang paid the money on the spot.

When they came to the raw stone cutting machine, there were two empty seats next to each other, as if they were specially reserved for them.

Gu Qingchen and Shen Dongyang’s raw stones were moved to the side of the stone table. Then, there were specialized personnel in place, ready to start cutting the raw stone.

Before cutting the raw stone, these professionals had to clean their hands first. Then, they wiped their hands with a special green handkerchief as a sign of a good fortune, so that they could get the green jade from the raw stone.

After a series of procedures before cutting the raw stone, the two people who were cutting the raw stones began to open the raw stone.

As the raw stones were relatively large, they needed to use a table grinder to cut it. As for where to start and whether or not they would hurt the jade, it all depended on the method of the person cutting the raw stones.

In general, the customer would sign a contract with the cutter of the raw stone. Regardless of whether or not the person who cut the raw stone destroyed the jade inside, they could not be held responsible.

Even gods could not break jade, let alone cutting jade stone. Sometimes, if one’s judgment was not good, it was very easy to destroy a good piece of jade.

It could be said that the value of a jade depended on how the person cut the stone.

With a single cut, the jade might be worth millions. With a single cut, the jade might only be worth tens of thousands. The difference between the two was too big.

Shen Dongyang knew some stone-cutting skills. So, when they were cutting the stone, he kept watching them. He was afraid that his jade would be destroyed by them.

On the other hand, Gu Qingchen was much more relaxed. When the cutter was ready to grind her raw stone bit by bit, she directly let him cut the raw stone from the middle.

This was a very bold move. Under normal circumstances, they would not choose to cut the raw stone from the middle.

Everyone knew that it was easier for jade to form in the middle because the temperature and quality conditions there were more suitable for the formation of jade.

“Are you really going to cut it in the middle? Lady, I see that although the surface of your raw stone is ordinary, there is still a possibility that it will has jade inside of it. If you cut it in the middle, it is very likely to destroy the integrity of the jade. By then, the jade will be worthless.”

The worker saw that Gu Qingchen was a little girl with a blue badge. He thought that Gu Qingchen did not understand these things, so he kindly reminded her.

Although he would save a lot of energy if he cut it in one go, he had to be honest. He had to do his job well because he got paid.

Gu Qingchen nodded gently and said firmly, “Cut it. Thank you for your hard work. Just cut it in the middle and then use a grinder to grind it bit by bit.”

She chose the raw stone personally, so she naturally knew what to do. As long as she touched it, she would know that the feeling was stronger.

Gu Qingchen had touched the raw stone before. The feeling from the left side of the raw stone was extremely strong. On the other hand, she also sensed something on the right side of the raw stone, but it only emitted a warm feeling which was much inferior to the left side.

Although she could not see what was going on inside, she still could sense something.

Seeing that Gu Qingchen was so determined, the stone cutter did not insist any further. He simply followed Gu Qingchen’s request and cut down from the middle.

Many onlookers felt that this move was too bold. They stretched their necks and waited to see what would happen.

In the end, when the stone was cut, there was nothing in the middle.

“Looks like this raw stone does not have jade.”

“Yup. The quality of her raw stone is pretty average to begin with. Now that there’s not even jade in the middle, the chances of jade appearing on both sides aren’t going to be high.”

“Looks like this young lady will lose this competition. Sigh, it’s such a pity to lose two million dollars.”

“That’s right. If I had known earlier, I would have competed with this young lady and earned two million dollars. Just thinking about it makes me excited. That fellow is so lucky.”

The people around started to discuss again. Some people who did not know about the competition had asked around and found out about the competition. Hence, they were even more eager to watch the show.

Although Shen Dongyang had been participating in the stone cutting, he had actually been paying attention to the situation on Gu Qingchen’s side. When he saw Gu Qingchen’s ask the worker to cut the stone in the middle, he was instantly overjoyed.

A layman was a layman. She knew nothing.

He was sure to win this competition.

Gu Qingchen was not nervous at all. Instead, she asked the worker to start using a table grinder to grind the raw stone on the left.

At this moment, someone on the other side shouted.

“Green, that’s jade!”

It was one of Shen Dongyang’s lackeys. He shouted very loudly and excitedly, immediately attracting everyone’s attention. Everyone’s attention was instantly attracted to Shen Dongyang’s side.

Shen Dongyang’s eyes lit up and he couldn’t help but laugh. It was obvious that he was in a very good mood at the moment.
