Chapter 510: Chapter 511: Turquoise_1

"No problem, keep cutting, Master," Li Changlin waved his hand nonchalantly, and when he casually saw the assistant about to throw away the small piece of raw stone that had been cut off, he hastily extended his hand and said, "Don’t throw it, don’t throw it, polish it later and take a look, I feel like there’s something inside, as if there’s something there!"

"Hahaha, has this guy lost his mind?"

"Such a small piece, it’s not even waste anymore, how could there be anything in it!"

"I reckon he’s gone insane with obsession."

"What an idiot."

The words of Li Changlin immediately drew a fresh wave of ridicule and mockery.

At this moment, in everyone’s eyes, Li Changlin seemed to have turned into a clown, with people blatantly slandering him.

"How can you, how can you be like this!" Ye Xiyao couldn’t contain her anger and stood up.

In her heart, Brother Changlin was the best, and she would not allow anyone to treat her Brother Changlin like this.

"They’re indeed too mean," Qian Ziwei and Luo Tianyi also spoke up in succession.

However, the two women were somewhat more rational and did not join Ye Xiyao in scolding everyone.

"Xiyao, don’t stoop to their level," Li Changlin turned around, looking gently at Ye Xiyao.

"Understood." Immediately, Ye Xiyao’s face turned bashful. She quickly lowered her head and responded softly.

"Damn, why is it turning green again!"

"Eh, really!"

At this time, someone else exclaimed loudly.

People immediately looked over and sure enough, they saw streaks of green emerging from the part of the raw stone that was being cut.

"How strange!"

"Perhaps it’s another fault line!"

"Anyway, I’m not optimistic about it."

The discussions among the crowd diminished; this situation was extremely peculiar and disrupted their expectations.

Before long, the cutting master sliced off another small piece of raw stone, and again, nothing appeared inside.

This time, the voices of the crowd discussing the matter grew loud again.

As expected, there was nothing. It seemed that Li Changlin was doomed to be disappointed.

Then, the cutting master continued his work. Amid the recurring exclamations from the crowd, he cut off a total of seven small pieces of the raw stone without discovering anything.

At this point, only a larger piece of raw stone remained on the cutting table. The smaller pieces of raw stone were placed to the side at Li Changlin’s request.

"Young man, are you going to cut the remaining raw stone?" the cutting master asked, his patience evidently worn thin.

He pointed at the piece of raw stone under the cutting machine and asked coldly.

"No need, no need to cut anymore," Li Changlin laughed lightly, seeing that the cutting master seemed to have a temper.

However, he wasn’t too concerned. If the cutting master wasn’t willing to continue, he didn’t mind; he could always pay another master to do the polishing.

"Haha, I knew it definitely wouldn’t reveal anything."

"Lucky for me, lucky I sold off the raw stone."

"That fool actually saved me hundreds of thousands."

Hearing Li Changlin say there was no need to cut further, everyone assumed that he must have given up.

The mocking and laughter grew even louder.

Li Changlin had spent 1.5 million, yet he hadn’t even made back 100,000 units.

Such rotten luck!

In the crowd, only Tang Hongyuan didn’t speak out to ridicule Li Changlin’s actions.

Because in his memory, he always felt like he had seen this man somewhere, but no matter how hard he tried to remember, he couldn’t connect it to Li Changlin.

After all, Li Changlin had swindled Song Haonan once. In Tang Hongyuan’s mind, Li Changlin surely wouldn’t dare to come to the antique market again.

"Master, there are eight rough stones here; would you please help me polish them?" Li Changlin ignored the laughter of the people around and looked solemnly at the cutting master.

"This!" The cutting master was slightly startled but, seeing that there were no customers at his station at the moment, he sighed lightly and nodded, "Alright, I’ll give it a try."

"Okay, then I’ll be troubling you, Master." Seeing that the other party had actually agreed, Li Changlin felt a slight sense of surprise in his heart.

However, he didn’t need to dwell on it.

Under Li Changlin’s direction, the cutting master reached out, casually picked up a small rough stone, and then started the polishing machine.

The assistant standing by his side also immediately picked up the hose that was still lying on the ground.

With a whirring sound, as the cutting master brought the rough stone close to the polishing machine, a stream of sparks burst forth.

At the same time, a lot of dust also rose into the air, and within that dust were wisps of green mist.

"How is that possible!"

"My God, it’s turning green again!"

"No, this is too strange!"

Everyone was initially ready to scoff, but to their surprise, just over ten seconds into the cutting master’s polishing, green mist began to drift out with the dust.

This scene left everyone dumbfounded.

And then, the green mist grew thicker, and the small rough stone in the cutting master’s hand began shrinking rapidly in size.

At last, all that was left in the cutting master’s hand was a green bead the size of a pigeon’s egg.

"What is that?"

"Why is it so small!"

"Could it be turquoise?"

Among the crowd, there were some with keen eyesight. Although no one had rushed forward to take a closer look, some could tell at a glance the quality of the bead in the cutting master’s hand.

"Damn it, if that’s turquoise, then he’s struck it rich!"

"Turquoise? Really?"

"A pigeon’s egg-sized piece of turquoise could be worth several million, that’s impossible!"

People were still somewhat dumbfounded, with few willing to believe what they saw.

"It is turquoise!" Right at that moment, the cutting master suddenly spoke out; he exclaimed excitedly, "It really is turquoise, ranked fifth among jades."

It was no wonder he was excited; having been in the business for nearly thirty years, the cutting master had never cut a piece of jade that ranked in the top five!

But unexpectedly, this time Li Changlin had made his dream come true.

Therefore, at this moment, the cutting master’s view of Li Changlin had changed dramatically.

He respectfully held the turquoise and handed it over to Li Changlin, "Thank you, young man, thank you!"

Such great luck!

At this time, the cutting master was not only deeply grateful to Li Changlin.

Even in his words, there was a hint of respect, a touch of awe.

Could it be that this young man was playing dumb?

In his heart, the cutting master suddenly couldn’t help but entertain such a thought.

"Damn it, it’s actually turquoise!"

"Shit, I’m such an idiot!"

Two voices suddenly erupted from the crowd.

The first sounded frustrated; it was Yan Xueyi’s resentful sigh.

However, even though it was turquoise, he felt only a flicker of frustration.

After all, that wasn’t the piece he had set his sights on at the time.
