Chapter 640: A Slap In The Face
“Ah, it’s green!”
Followed by the cries of the crowd, Ling Li’s focus immediately shifted to the raw stone that was being cut.
The lapidary had only cut three times when the edge of the raw stone turned solid green.
“Gosh, this green is too beautiful!”
“Such color and transparency, can it be the imperial jade of the highest-grade old deposit transparent type?”
“Oh, my God! That girl kept mentioning imperial jade just now. Can she turn out to be right? THat there’s actually an imperial jade in Jiang District? This is…”
“It hasn’t been fully cut open yet, has it? What if it’s just an oily green type inside?” Someone said sarcastically. After all, if it was really imperial jade, the Ling family would have made a fortune.
To be frank, it was already obvious as to what was going on right now. This clear texture and this cross-section appeared to be of higher quality than the few raw stones on display in the exhibition hall of the Soaring Clouds Pavilion. Even if they were not top-grade imperial jade, they should be high-grade ice-type jade.
A raw stone with this level of transparency, even if it was only slightly exposed, cost at least five million to buy.
Of course, under normal circumstances, the boss would rather not sell it even if there was five million to be earned. This was because the chance of winning this gamble was already 50%. If there was an old deposit transparent type inside the raw stone—judging from this color—if it turned out to be an imperial jade among the old deposit transparent types, it would probably cost five hundred million.
Ling Pinyuan was also shocked by her marvelous luck.
She knew that her luck had always been good, but she never expected it to be this good.
A look of joy appeared on Ling Li’s face. If there really was an imperial jade, then the Soaring Clouds Pavilion would become famous worldwide.
“Inspect through the opening, inspect!”
Ling Li was afraid that the lapidary might damage even a tiny bit of the imperial jade, so he instructed the lapidary to inspect through the opening of the raw stone instead.
“Alright, go ahead and cut. There’s no such thing as green imperial jade. They say it’s at most green.” Zhong Nuannuan was making sarcastic remarks at the side, not afraid of getting offending anyway.
Then, everyone rolled their eyes at her words. Only the old master squeezed her hand to comfort her.
As a result, when the lapidary carefully wiped it a few more times, the exposed appearance once again caused people to cry out in surprise.
“Changed!”
“It changed, it changed!”
“My God, the best quality has already appeared, do you think it will be the same as this inside?”
“Can this girl really be right?”
As more and more jade was cut out by the lapidary. The overall appearance of the jade started to appear before everyone.
Once all of the green parts were on display, the crowd inhaled sharply.
“Oh my god! It’s really oily green type!”
“That girl was right!”
“This is amazing!”
“Did she see through it or was that a blind shot in the dark?”
“It must be a blind shot in the dark, right? Who is so good that they can tell? Then, there’s no need to work so hard anymore. They can just go to the raw stones market every day to buy raw stones. You can become a billionaire one day.”
“True… but her luck is too good!”
At that moment, everyone looked at Zhong Nuannuan differently. Even Wu Maosong looked at Zhong Nuannuan differently.
If he initially thought that this girl was a brainless prodigal who had been spoiled by his grandfather. It was at this moment that Ling Li promised not to make noise.
This girl had been defending her grandfather from the start. She looked like an ignorant idiot, but upon closer inspection, one would realize that her eyes were clear and filled with spirit. She was not what everyone thought.
