Chapter 511: Chapter 512: Fanning the Flames_1
Even though Yan Xueyi managed to bid successfully for that rough stone, he would still end up at a loss in the end.
Because that piece of scrap wasn’t on stage, Yan Xueyi certainly wouldn’t pick it up.
As for the latter voice, that belonged to the previous owner of the rough stone.
When he heard that a bead the size of a pigeon’s egg was worth several million, his heart felt as if it was being scratched by a cat—he was truly vexed!
Several million!
At the thought of this number, the fat man’s heart was filled with deep regret.
It was only now that he suddenly realized that he was the real fool!
However, this was just the beginning.
Under Li Changlin’s instruction, the cutter picked up another small rough stone.
"Could there be something inside this one too?"
"Impossible, his luck can’t be that good!"
"Oh my God, I’m so excited right now. If Li Changlin finds turquoise in this rough stone, then what about the other pieces!"
Suddenly, another cry of surprise arose from the crowd.
This sound instantly stunned everyone present.
What if those smaller rough stones?
Everyone’s eyes gleamed with a fiery light.
If it weren’t for the large crowd here, some might have even disregarded the law, rushed forward, snatched a small rough stone, and fled.
Before long, a green mist began to rise from the rough stone in the cutter’s hand again.
Seeing this, everyone could already anticipate that there might indeed be a pigeon’s egg-sized piece of turquoise hidden within the rough stone.
And true to everyone’s expectations,
before long, the small rough stone had been completely polished, and all that was left in the cutter’s hands was that pigeon’s egg-sized piece of turquoise.
"Phew, damn, that’s thrilling!"
"This kid, he couldn’t be pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger, could he?"
"Oh my God, two pieces of turquoise! Why is this guy’s luck so incredible!"
Seeing the indifferent expression on Li Changlin’s face as he received the turquoise from the cutter, many people couldn’t help feeling a hint of envy and jealousy.
In fact, some even harbored thoughts of robbery.
Although there were many people around, Li Changlin would eventually have to leave.
If they were to follow him then!
At this moment, many hearts were racing.
Li Changlin, of course, was unaware of what others were thinking.
He then spoke up, asking the cutter to continue polishing for him.
Afterward, as one turquoise after another was revealed, the people watching became completely numb.
"Who is this person, and how can he be so amazing! Could it be that he already knew there was turquoise hidden in that piece of scrap from the beginning?" Tang Hongyuan muttered to himself, chin in hand.
Soon, all seven pieces of turquoise had made their way into Li Changlin’s hands.
He carelessly put them into his pocket, but with the help of Ling’er, he inconspicuously stored the turquoise in the "System" on his phone.
At that time, when Jiang Xingwei was plotting against him, he had also used this method to put the framed jade pendant into the phone’s "System."
Although Li Changlin couldn’t be certain whether anyone would scheme against him, deep in his heart he understood one principle well.
The innocent man is not guilty; the one who carries a jade is.
Though he was now a master at the peak of Dark Energy, with strength that could even be comparable to the Initial Threshold Stage, he was after all still accompanied by three girls, and he definitely didn’t want to accidentally harm them.
"Young Master, this raw stone." At this moment, the stone cutter’s previously indifferent expression had completely disappeared.
He respectfully looked at Li Changlin, with a fervent glimmer circling in his eyes.
"The same as before, just polish it," Li Changlin said with a calm smile and a gentle voice.
Boom!
However, his words exploded in the ears of the crowd like a bomb.
"It’s so big!"
"My god, what if it’s also turquoise inside?"
"This young guy has really struck it rich!"
"Haha, I remember that fat guy was just mocking the young fellow as a fool, wasn’t he?"
"Now, I realize it’s actually he who’s the fool."
"Heh heh, how come I remember you laughing at the young fellow too?"
"Hehe, misunderstanding, misunderstanding."
Li Changlin’s words were like a massive rock suddenly dropped into a pond, stirring up a thousand ripples.
Watching the raw stone carefully held up by the stone cutter, envy, lust, and jealousy flashed through the eyes of the onlookers.
"Damn it, my turquoise, my turquoise! I deserve to die, I really deserve to die!" Suddenly, a frantic cry rang out from the crowd.
It was from the previous owner of the raw stone, who at that moment was pounding his head in agony, a look of great pain etched on his face.
And at that time, the polishing machine also happened to start up, so everyone’s attention was on the stone cutter’s hands, and therefore, nobody paid any mind to the fat man.
Only Yan Xueyi, his eyes suddenly flashed with a venomous look, as he coldly glanced at Li Changlin and a malevolent thought began to take shape in his mind.
"First, let the fat guy stir up some trouble; then, I’ll call someone to make a move," he thought to himself then quickly walked up to the fat man.
"Hey, brother." Yan Xueyi reached out and gently patted the fat man’s shoulder.
"What, what do you want!" The fat man’s body jolted as he turned to look at Yan Xueyi.
"So much turquoise, that’s worth several million! Are you really content with this!" Yan Xueyi darkly said, fanning the flames, "Brother, several million, and they bought it from you for only 1.5 million, are you really willing to let it go!"
"I, of course I’m not!" After a slight startle, the fat man clenched his fists and shouted: "It was my raw stone, of course I’m not willing to let it go."
"Good, if you’re not willing, then listen to me," said Yan Xueyi with a sly smile, then leaned in close to the fat man’s ear and began whispering rapidly.
"Can this really work?" Hearing Yan Xueyi’s idea, the fat man suddenly became hesitant again.
Keep in mind, moments ago under the scrutiny of the public, he had already received a transfer from Li Changlin; to go back on it now would surely attract scorn.
"Pfft, we’re talking about several million here!" Yan Xueyi snorted coldly, adding, "You think about it yourself; that guy gained so much, shouldn’t he compensate you? Besides, even if he doesn’t return the raw stone to you, asking him to give you a few million in compensation is perfectly reasonable!"
"Right!" When the fat man heard this, feeling that Yan Xueyi made a fair point, he couldn’t help but nod continuously.
"It’s out, it’s come out."
"Not turquoise, I knew it; his luck couldn’t be that good."
"Looks like it’s violet, although violet is ranked sixth, its price is only about one-tenth of turquoise’s."
"It’s still not bad, those seven turquoise stones are worth several million!"
"That young guy, he’s really lucky!"
