Chapter 8 Displaying Only A Small Part Of His Talent
Wang Feng felt disappointed in spite of himself, after having a look at several jade stones in succession. These stones were all rubbish—that was to say, the money used to purchase these jade stones went down the drain.
“Well?” All of a sudden, surprise and amazement showed up on Wang Feng’s face. Then his breath became somewhat rapid. Originally, he had thought that among all these jade stones, there were no jades inside.
However, when he cast his eyesight on the jade stone which was at the lowest price... he was excited instead.
Though this jade stone was not of a large size, there actually was a green jade which was the size of a fist in its central position. Based on the rough knowledge he had learned so far, this was a Waxy Jade. Though the value of the Waxy Jade could not be compared to that of an Icy Jade, the price for a jade of such a big size could be at least around hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Upon thinking that, Wang Feng felt that his heart could not help beating acutely. He was only able to save several thousands of dollars after graduating from college for one year. While now, it was possible for him to earn hundreds of thousands of dollars with a stone. The income indeed was gained a bit too easily.
“Brother Yao, I want this piece of jade stone.” While talking, Wang Feng pointed at the jade stone which was of the lowest price. Because he knew that among these stones, only this one had a jade inside.
“Don’t you need to pick a few more pieces?” Yao Cheng stared at Wang Feng and said, “Though my property could not be compared to that of my little sister, to me, over one hundred thousand dollars is just a piece of cake. It’s my pleasure.”
“I’m thankful for Brother Yao’s kindness. I only want this exact stone,” Wang Feng shook his head and said.
“Alright.” Seeing Wang Feng that insistent, Yao Cheng did not say anything further and continued talking, “The professional stone-cutting masters are right here. Let’s go to them right now.”
“OK.”
Quite a number of people were crowding around a small corner of the hall. There came sounds of uproar from time to time.
Stone-curring was actually an extremely exciting thing. Because people could intuitively see whether they were losing or winning.
“I have won, have won, haha.” Amid the crowd, there was a middle-aged man who was roaring with laughter, with a jade stone which already had a half jade revealed in his hands. He made no disguise of the joyfulness on his face at all.
Of course, besides the excited ones, there were also the ones who were so angry that they were thumping their chests and stamping their feet. Because the jade stone which had cost them a huge amount of money was actually just an ordinary one. They had lost their original capital.
As the saying goes, nine losses out of ten bets. To win in gambling on stones, people would need not only the superstrong vision, but also luck. There were too many variables in this field. Nobody dared to say that they would definitely win in the end.
As the saying goes, ‘One cut ends up getting rich, one cut ends up going bankrupt and the other cut ends up being dressed in gunny cloth’, which might be the most appropriate description for the gambling over stones.
“Master, kindly help us cut this stone.” At this time, the three people with Wang Feng included had already come to the front of a stone-cutting master.
Sweeping his eyes over the jade stones in their cart, this stone-cutting master opened his mouth somewhat contemptuously to ask, “Is it stone-cutting or stone sharpening what you want?”
He could see that these jade stones were the ones at the lowest price. So naturally, he did not think anything good could be cut out from them.
As for stone-cutting, there were two kinds of forms, namely stone-cutting and stone-sharpening. With stone-cutting, people could see whether there were jades inside the stone most quickly. However, stone-cutting was also a way which was the most likely to damage the value of the jades.
So when the ordinary person came to cut the jade stones, they would all choose stone-sharpening. After all, none of them would know whether there were really jades inside or not.
“Cut it.” Yao Cheng directly opened his mouth without taking notice of this stone-cutting master’s attitude.
For the playboys coming from rich families like him, the reason why he had come here was just to have some fun. Of course, he would not care whether stone-cutting would damage the things inside or whatever.
Not to mention the stones at the price of tens of thousands of dollars, even if for the things which were at the price of hundreds of thousands of dollars, it was believed that his countenance would not change at all.
“As you wish,” The stone-cutting master replied and then started working.
Crack!
With one cut, the jade stone was broken in two. However, disappointment showed up on Yao Cheng’s face instead. Because it was absolutely empty inside the jade stone. There was nothing at all.
