Ouyang Jun took the rough stone, his face lit up with joy, and he couldn’t help but give Huo Sining a thumbs up: "Sister-in-law, never mind anything else, your temperament just suits mine. I just love your generous spirit!" Gu Xu, standing nearby, listened with a scowl and kicked out at Ouyang Jun, saying grumpily, "Hurry up and get lost, you’ve got stone gambling and still can’t shut your trap!" Ouyang Jun, grinning slyly, hugged the rough stone and went running to line up in a less crowded queue. At that moment, voices of discussion began to emerge from the crowd in front. "It’s risen again, this is the fourth side cut now, the cut surface is as big as a palm, and it’s completely green!" "Didn’t you see the open bid boss’s face turn green? How much did this stone cost? Eight hundred thousand! Instead, it cut out genuine glass-type jadeite Yang green. Look at the size, at least seven to eight kilograms if not more! If this person sells it back home, making tens of millions is definitely no problem!" "Damn, if I’d known there was so much inside this rough stone, I’d have used everything I have to buy it!" "Elder Chen, give up this dream, can you even afford it? Who was saying before, whoever buys this stone is an idiot!" "Exactly, just post-rationalizing! With your level, everyone makes a fortune and you’re left out!" The people nearby began to mock the daydreaming Elder Chen, making Huo Sining laugh, though she was somewhat curious. After all, she was here for fun this time, not planning to pick much rough stone to take back. Now that someone had cut out glass-type jadeite, she wasn’t in a hurry to pick those open bids, waiting until this glass-type jadeite was fully cut out before heading back wouldn’t be too late. This time it rose again, and the onlookers felt happy for the buyer, but soon the excitement abruptly quieted down, and the people behind seemed to realize something was off, craning their necks to look inside, someone anxiously tugging at those in front: "What’s happening? Didn’t it rise up? Why is it suddenly quiet? Is it still being cut?" Even the person at the front didn’t understand the situation. The owner of the rough stone, after cutting the fourth slice, initially smiled with glee seeing the glass-type jadeite Yang green on the cut surface. But as he laughed, he seemed to realize something, carefully lowering his head to examine that cut surface, and his originally light and joyful expression gradually became solemn. "Fanzi, what’s wrong?" Seeing his friend standing there in front of the rough stone staring for ages without making a sound, his face turning darker, Liao Song felt a jolt of anxiety and couldn’t help but lean closer to ask. After the first bucket of clear water was poured, Zhong Zifan’s heart sank to the bottom. He glanced at Liao Song, took a deep drag from the cigarette in his hand, then tossed the cigarette butt down and stubbed it out with a few twists, saying coolly: "Liao Song, we’re afraid we’re going to lose badly this time!" "Are you sure?" Hearing this, Liao Song was suddenly shocked, though compared to Zhong Zifan, his emotions were still much calmer. Zhong Zifan nodded, pointed to a particular spot on the newly cut surface of the rough stone, lowered his voice and solemnly said: "I deliberately avoided cutting the face with the crack, just to avoid it, but still encountered it. Did you see here? Any more cuts, and the whole piece of stone will be ruined." Liao Song followed the direction of Zhong Zifan’s finger, at first glance not noticing anything, but as he focused carefully, he realized that near the corner close to the cracked surface, there was a very fine and fragmented crack. "Such a small crack, really that dangerous?" Liao Song frowned, not understanding stone gambling much, but hearing his friend’s frightening words, he couldn’t quite believe it. It’s just a crack after all, to give up such a big piece of stone for this, isn’t that too cautious? Knowing he wouldn’t believe, Zhong Zifan saw Liao Song’s skeptical expression and couldn’t help but show a wry smile: "This stone was a gamble on cracks, and now at this point, there’s really no need to gamble further. I know you’re definitely unwilling, anyone would be unwilling with such a large glass-type jadeite, but stone gambling can see a rise with one cut yet collapse with the next. If you trust your brother, selling it can still profit, otherwise when it’s fully cut and only a complete loss remains." Liao Song wasn’t the type to dawdle. Seeing Zhong Zifan’s serious expression, he realized the seriousness of the problem, decisively nodding: "Alright, we’ll do as you say, let’s sell it." The venue was crowded with spectators, everyone seeing such a large piece of glass-type jadeite felt as excited as being on a high, but after waiting a long while without any further signs, the crowd outside grew anxious. "What’s happening? Why no noise?" Many in the crowd felt puzzled, but quickly a shocking piece of news spread from inside. The two young fellows had given up on the stone gambling and were preparing to sell the rough stone! Once this news spread, the entire venue buzzed with astonishment. All those watching couldn’t believe it, some even thought the owner of the rough stone had gone mad. That was seven or eight kilograms of glass-type jadeite! The price difference between open bid and uncut mixed gamble rough stone was significant, not just by tens of thousands! "Really? The rough stone hasn’t been fully cut yet, and they’re actually selling it?" Official source is n0velfire.net The outer layer’s onlookers couldn’t see what was happening inside, and upon hearing the news, were all skeptical. After all, a stone already largely cut out with glass-type jadeite, no one would give up money they’ve already seen. As if anticipating the reaction from these onlookers, Zhong Zifan and Liao Song exchanged a glance and called out loudly: "All you bosses here, my brother and I jointly bought this rough stone, now two faces remain uncut, one is precisely where this stone crack is." "So even though glass-type jadeite is cut out, the final situation of this rough stone, nobody can guarantee." "My brother and I haven’t been in the stone gambling business for long, though we’ve seen rises a few times, our guts and daring are still insufficient." "For this rough stone today, we’ve decided to sell. If any boss present is interested in acquiring this stone, you’re welcome to start bidding directly." Zhong Zifan’s voice was deep and powerful, once he spoke, those watching inside and out heard him loud and clear. The rosy jadeite’s owner personally said he would transfer it, what further doubt could there be? This prompted many who had money to begin showing interest. Huo Sining stood outside the circle, hearing the familiar voice, and couldn’t help but be stunned. Standing at the circle’s periphery, Huo Sining hadn’t seen what the people stone gambling inside looked like, but she’d interacted with Zhong Zifan many times, she could still recognize his voice. So upon hearing the voice inside, she immediately judged who was speaking inside.
