Chapter 788: Chapter 789: Young Masters of the Prodigal Sons_1
According to Li Changlin, there must definitely be something good inside the raw stone.
If a decent jade stone is indeed produced, Yan Xiaozhong might actually consider getting involved.
Fortunately, I had just called home, and help should be arriving soon.
Thinking that he had already contacted the family’s guards, Tang Hongyuan couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"Li Changlin!" However, at that moment, an anomaly occurred, and suddenly a voice, gnashing its teeth, coldly shouted.
"Hmm!" Li Changlin was slightly startled; he found the voice somewhat familiar and couldn’t help but immediately look to the left.
Instantly, Li Changlin saw Chen Si being escorted by several middle-aged men, staring at him with a gloomy expression.
But perhaps because they knew of Li Changlin’s strength, Chen Si’s expression was very somber, yet he didn’t seem intent on starting trouble.
"Young Master, has this person offended you?"
"Dare to offend the Young Master, I’ll go over and beat him to death!" Beside Chen Si, two Dark Energy Experts swept a cold glance at Li Changlin, their eyes flashing with a fierce light.
"Be not rash, you are not his match!" Chen Si was slightly startled and hastily whispered, "He is a Late Threshold Stage expert, forget just the two of you, even if we call Uncle Kun, we can’t do anything to him!"
"Late Threshold Stage!" Hearing this, both guards’ eyes tightened, chilled to the core.
They couldn’t have imagined that such a young man could be a Late Threshold Stage powerhouse.
Such news was tremendously shocking.
Had it not been Chen Si who spoke, they might have taken it for a joke.
But they had followed Chen Si for many years and were well aware of his temperament.
Although Chen Si was profligate, he didn’t deceive his own people.
"What do we do then, Young Master? Surely we can’t just watch the person who bullied you get away with it!" Knowing Li Changlin’s strength, the two guards became alert, and one of them couldn’t help but say in a low voice.
"Of course we can’t, not only has this man caused me a great loss, but he is also an enemy of the Su Family in Jincheng. So, Uncle Li, you must call the elder immediately and ask him to send an expert here," Chen Si thought for a moment and came up with an idea.
Since the Chen Family has a marital connection with the Su Family, it was impossible to let Li Changlin off, both for his own sake and for Su Jingfeng’s.
Uncle Li quickly acknowledged and swiftly retreated to the back.
As for Chen Si, he swaggered over with the others.
The events of that day had passed, and Chen Si wasn’t afraid of Li Changlin continuing to trouble him.
Furthermore, this was the Jade Antique Market, after all. Although Li Changlin was formidable, he was unlikely to be able to act unbridled here.
Chen Si naturally recognized Tang Hongyuan.
Seeing that Wang Wenhuan and Yan Xiaozhong seemed to have some intent against Tang Hongyuan, he couldn’t help but let out a chuckle.
"Oh, if it isn’t the great Young Master Chen of the Chen Family!" Hearing the laughter, everyone turned their heads, and Yan Xiaozhong smiled and nodded in acknowledgment.
"Uncle Yan, hello." Though Yan Xiaozhong was only from the Second Branch of the Yan Family, he still had a say, and Chen Si greeted him in a pretentious manner.
"Good, good, Young Master Chen is too polite," Yan Xiaozhong nodded in satisfaction, feeling flattered by Chen Si’s greeting.
Wang Wenhuan, standing to the side, of course, also nodded with a smile.
Everyone here is a profligate from the circle, often running into one another.
"Tang Hongyuan, not bad at all, you actually bought this stone!" After greeting the familiar people around him with a nod, Chen Si chuckled and casually glanced at Li Changlin.
He held a grudge against Li Changlin, so of course, he wouldn’t greet him.
Moreover, because of Li Changlin, Chen Si wasn’t showing any good face to Tang Hongyuan either.
Tang Hongyuan wasn’t upset, calmly saying, "Just for a bit of fun."
"Isn’t the Tang Family not involved in stone gambling? Tang Hongyuan, you spent eight million just for fun. Aren’t you afraid that the Tang Family will punish you?" The rules of the Tang Family were quite strict, especially since they were involved in the jade and emerald business, leading to many regulations for their family members.
Among these, the strictest rule was that family members were not allowed to participate in stone gambling.
It was one thing for Tang Hongyuan to appear at the Jade Antique Market today, but to actually break this family rule made Chen Si very curious.
"Young Master Chen, you might be mistaken; this rough stone wasn’t bought by me, it was Mr. Li." Tang Hongyuan’s eyelids twitched; he didn’t want Chen Si catching him in a slip.
Chuckling, Tang Hongyuan directly shifted the responsibility onto Li Changlin.
Compared to Wang Wenhuan, Chen Si was much more difficult to deal with.
"Tang Hongyuan, that’s not what you said to me just now," Wang Wenhuan sneered from the side.
"Wenhuan, what did Tang Hongyuan tell you earlier?" Chen Si’s mouth curled up slightly; he was well aware of Wang Wenhuan’s grudges against Tang Hongyuan, and naturally wanted to take full advantage of their relationship.
To prevent Li Changlin from leaving, Chen Si certainly intended to delay their progress as much as possible.
Though cutting such a large piece of rough stone would take some time, arranging for someone from the family elders also required time.
Chen Si may be a profligate, but he also had a clever mind.
Li Changlin was not only his enemy but also an enemy of the Su Family. He had to take up this responsibility.
"Brother Tang, why waste time talking to them? Let’s get the rough stone cut first!" Chen Si was shrewd, but Li Changlin was naturally no slouch either.
Although he didn’t know Chen Si’s scheming, attention to the rough stone had already become too widespread, and if the situation continued to drag on, it might lead to complications.
Li Changlin didn’t want too much trouble; getting the rough stone cut as quickly as possible and extracting the Blood Jade inside was the right path.
"Alright," Tang Hongyuan nodded, then looked up at the rough stone dealer, "Boss, please."
"No trouble, this is what we should do," the rough stone dealer laughed heartily and then waved to arrange for workers.
Because the rough stone was so large, the dealer had called over a dozen people to help.
However, even with this help, such a large piece of rough stone was not something that people could lift by hand.
A carefully operated forklift approached, and the workers lifted one side of the rough stone, allowing the forklift to slide in beneath it.
Then, with the forklift starting up and with the help of everyone holding it steady, the rough stone weighing over a ton was slowly moved onto the cutting bed.
Handling such a huge stone was not easy. By this time, the cutting master was ready, and with the help of three assistants, the saw machine started to roar to life.
"Brother Li, where shall we make the first cut?" Tang Hongyuan rubbed his hands together, asking excitedly.
After pretending to look over the stone, Li Changlin took a closer look at the cutting machine, then waved his hand and said with a smile, "Doesn’t matter, let’s just cut this rough stone open first!"
