Chapter 237: Chapter 238 Flitting Green_1
Thank you to the brothers who supported "-Buddha and Demon in Two Lives?", thank you to the brothers who supported Qidian CD Cloud Sky, thank you for everyone’s support!
Several people quickly ran over, lifted the raw stone, and walked toward the cutting machine not far away.
Soon, Li Changlin had completed the transaction in the store and came out with the receipt.
At this point, the Jinyang Yuan Stone Store’s assistants had already placed his purchased raw stone onto the cutting machine.
Li Changlin handed the receipt to the assistant who had greeted him earlier, and after confirmation, the assistant nodded to the cutting machine operator.
"Hurry up and cut it, let’s see if there are any good things inside this stone," Li Changlin said.
"I can hardly wait."
"Who would have thought, this young guy actually bought this stone, he’s really kept a low profile!"
Seeing that everything was ready, the onlookers had long been unable to wait.
Previously, many people had looked down on Li Changlin, thinking that he could never afford a raw stone worth three hundred thousand.
But now, everyone had also come to realize that this man was actually a hidden tycoon.
They say the rich know how to play, and no one expected Li Changlin to actually pretend to be a poor man.
Of course, now that everyone knew Li Changlin was a wealthy person, they just saw him as a second-generation rich.
After all, Li Changlin was still too young, on his own, it would definitely be impossible for him to have earned so much money.
"Little brother, where do you want to make the first cut on this raw stone?" At this time, the cutting machine operator had already put on gloves and came over to Li Changlin with a smile, asking.
"No rush, let me take a look," Li Changlin pretended to measure the stone for a moment, but actually, he had used a bottle of Clairvoyance Potion as soon as he stepped out of Jinyang Yuan Stone Store.
Pretending to measure, he immediately looked inside the raw stone at the piece of jade, "Master, please help me make the cut here!"
Li Changlin pointed to a spot on the raw stone, a position that was not far from the jade inside, approximately just three to five centimeters away.
The reason for choosing this location was of course intentional for Li Changlin.
Although he had never played with raw stones before, he hadn’t eaten pork but had seen pigs run.
Previously, Li Changlin had also visited the antique market and had watched scenes of cutting raw stones with Ye Zhiwen multiple times.
With raw stones, there are collapses and increases.
If it collapses, there’s no need to say more, but if it increases, or if there’s an appearance of green or floating green, those speculators hidden among the onlookers always can’t help but jump out and shout their offers.
Among these people, some were purely for fun, but some were procurement officers from jewelry jade stone companies.
Li Changlin believed that once his raw stone showed green or floated green, those people would definitely not be able to resist coming out to discuss the transfer of ownership with him.
Of course, Li Changlin had no intention of transferring the gluey rice-type jade in the raw stone, but after he cut out the gluey rice-type, about four-fifths of the stone might remain uncut.
At that time, if someone wanted to buy the remaining raw stone, Li Changlin would certainly not refuse.
Moreover, he believed that many people would be willing to buy the remaining raw stone.
After all, gambling on raw stones is gambling in itself, and the high-stake kind at that.
Since cutting only one-fifth had already revealed gluey rice-type jade, he suspected the remaining four-fifths of the stone might also contain good things.
Li Changlin believed in human nature, there would certainly be those who would be tempted.
Soon, the cutter had marked the places where Li Changlin had pointed, having designated two spots in total.
Afterwards, the cutting master nodded to his assistant standing beside him to push the rough stone under the cutting machine.
Having locked the marked position, the cutting master then started the machine.
At this time, his assistant also took a small hose and began to spray water at the cutting point.
"What do you guys think, can this young man’s chosen rough stone yield anything?"
"I think it’s doubtful. From my experience, this young man has practically no experience. This investment is likely to be a lost cause."
"That’s not necessarily true. Wasn’t there someone else interested in this piece of rough stone before? If it hadn’t been for the high price, maybe that person would’ve bought it already."
"Friend, you’re too naive. The waters are deep when it comes to playing with rough stones in the antique market!"
The onlookers were abuzz with discussion, with many not optimistic about the rough stone Li Changlin had chosen.
After all, from the way Li Changlin had been selecting the rough stones, he was more or less inexperienced, practically a newcomer.
"Let’s not make wild guesses. Be careful not to anger the young man; after all, he has invested 300,000."
Soon, the volume of the discussions among the crowd slowly diminished.
By this time, the cutting master had already begun to work, and with a buzzing sound, the cutting machine quickly penetrated deep into the rough stone.
Since the marks made by Li Changlin were not far from the jade within the rough stone, the cutting master quickly reached the position of the jade.
Suddenly, puffs of green mist drifted out.
"My god, there’s green! There’s green!"
"Stop, stop right now!"
"Wow, can this young guy’s luck be this good? He’s just started and already there’s green!"
Seeing the ’green,’ the spectators became agitated.
At this time, the cutting master had also turned off the cutting machine and lifted his eyes to look at Li Changlin, waiting for his next instruction.
"Young man, sell me this rough stone for 500,000. I’ll buy it from you."
"I’ll offer 550,000. Young man, how about you sell the rough stone to me?"
"600,000. I’m willing to offer 600,000. Bro, I’m a purchaser from Xinyuan Jewelry Company. How about you transfer this rough stone to us?"
"Damn, it’s someone from Xinyuan Jewelry Company. No wonder the bid is so high."
"600,000 now. It’s doubled already. This young man is really lucky."
As soon as the cutting master stopped, three people immediately stepped forward, wanting to negotiate with Li Changlin for the rough stone.
But of course, Li Changlin was certainly not going to transfer it. Even if he were genuinely considering a transfer, at the very least, he would want to cut out the jade from inside the rough stone first.
"I’m really sorry, you three. This is my first time dealing with rough stones, so let’s wait and see," Li Changlin pretended to consider for a while then looked up at the cutting master and said, "Master, please cut from this position."
Li Changlin pointed to another spot marked with a faint red line, a mark made by the cutting master, which was also not very far from the jade inside the rough stone.
The cutting master responded with a sound, then gave his assistant a look. The two of them maneuvered the cutting machine and quickly locked onto the position Li Changlin had gestured to.
"What a pity."
"He won’t transfer even for 600,000. This young man has quite an appetite."
"If it were me, I would’ve transferred it right away, making a quick profit of 300,000 plus."
