Chapter 259: Chapter 258 Cheap (8/10)

Perhaps Yang Chen didn’t have money in Flame Country before.

But now the situation is different.

As long as Zhao Feiyang is here, he won’t lack money.

Because behind Zhao Feiyang is Luke Leonard.

And behind Luke Leonard is the emerging invisible consortium!

"Tell me, what do you like? I’ll get it for you." Yang Chen smiled, reassuring Ye Xin.

Thinking about it, Yang Chen still hadn’t given Ye Xin any gifts yet.

Ye Xin furrowed her brows slightly, glanced at Yang Chen, then at Zhao Feiyang, and understood.

After pondering, Ye Xin said, "How about a piece of jade? Our Flame Country’s jade culture has always been popular, but I haven’t really gotten to know it."

"Sure!" Yang Chen nodded with a smile.

If Ye Xin wanted other gemstones, Yang Chen would know more, but when it comes to jade... He had only briefly encountered some during a trip to Gong Country, so he was not very knowledgeable and would have to rely on luck.

Yang Chen led Ye Xin forward to make a selection.

At that moment, Liu Zekai stepped forward, stared at Yang Chen, and said, "What a coincidence! You’re here too?"

Yang Chen glanced at Liu Zekai indifferently, sneered, and said, "What? Feeling restless again?"

Saying that, Yang Chen made a motion to lift his leg.

Liu Zekai was startled, fear flashed in his eyes, and he instinctively stepped back, bumping into someone.

Yang Chen chuckled coldly and continued walking forward with Ye Xin.

Anger flashed in Liu Zekai’s eyes, and he shouted at Yang Chen, "Do you dare to compete with me in stone gambling?"

"Not interested!" Yang Chen said flatly.

That made Liu Zekai feel as if he’d punched a soft pillow, so frustrated that he almost spit out blood.

"Afraid or just can’t do it?" Liu Zekai angrily retorted.

Yang Chen glanced at Liu Zekai indifferently and said, "Since you’re so sincere, let’s see each other at the group competition later, and whoever wins can give their stone to the other."

"Do you dare to go big?" Liu Zekai continued to taunt.

"Not interested!" Yang Chen said coldly, "If you want to compete, compete, if not, get lost!"

"You!" Liu Zekai was almost suffocating with frustration.

"Fine! I’ll compete with you!" Liu Zekai angrily declared.

Yang Chen then ignored Liu Zekai and went off with Ye Xin to pick a stone.

Meanwhile, Liu Chengpeng specifically invited an appraiser from Shangnan Group to help select the stone material.

After wandering among the rough stones for a while, Yang Chen couldn’t make sense of it, so he casually bought a chunk about the size of a flower pot, which was cheap, only costing fifteen thousand.

Many people on site opted to cut their stones directly, and Yang Chen handed his stone over and waited quietly.

After a short while, Liu Zekai came by with the stone he’d opened.

Yang Chen took a look; it was ice-translucent glutinous rice, with a very good orange color.

"How about it? Where’s your stone?" Liu Zekai mocked.

This stone cost him eight hundred thousand, one of the most expensive pieces available here, and he’d risked his all on it.

Yang Chen ignored him and instead looked at Zhao Feiyang, asking, "Has our stone been opened yet?"

Zhao Feiyang said, "Next up is ours!"

"Let’s go then!" Yang Chen stood up and extended his hand to Ye Xin.

Ye Xin giggled sweetly and placed her delicate hand in Yang Chen’s palm, the sweet gesture fueling Liu Zekai’s jealousy.

Approaching the stone-cutting machine, this material was clearly a dud, worth nothing, and even the person working on it showed a face of regret.

The cutter immediately picked up the next material to start cutting.

Seeing this, Liu Zekai laughed and said, "A cracked white salt sand material, you really have the guts to show it off."

Yang Chen nonchalantly said, "Yeah, I don’t understand anyway, won’t lose much money."

"You!" Liu Zekai felt Yang Chen was just playing with him.

"How should we cut this stone? Rub or window it?" the cutter asked.

Yang Chen directly replied, "Cut right through the middle, it won’t be worth much anyway!"

Hearing this, Liu Zekai gritted his teeth in frustration.

If this stone was a dud, wouldn’t he have spent eight hundred thousand just to win a useless stone?

Soon, the stone was cut; the master took a look and said, "It’s a dud, nothing inside!"

Upon hearing this, Liu Zekai was already discouraged, the victory worthless.

"Let me see!" Yang Chen stepped forward for a look, and the stone was indeed worthless.

Pulled out, the stone was all white with no trace of green.

The master used a professional flashlight to check, still nothing, "This kind of white salt sand material rarely yields jade. Buying slightly better material with more money would be better."

Yang Chen frowned at the left half of the stone, feeling something was off.

Picking up the stone for a closer look, he said to the master, "Could you cut it again from the middle?"

"This stone has no value anymore," the master said grudgingly.

Ye Xin said, "Please cut it again!"

The master couldn’t refuse a beauty’s request, so he placed it back in the machine for another cut.

After cutting, the master suddenly widened his eyes, "There’s green!"

"What!"

Everyone was in disbelief; could such a stone have green stone inside?

"Such deep green!" The master was ecstatic, "Let me help cut it out!"

Since the green was small, it was easy to slice out.

Liu Zekai took a glance and sighed; the small bit of green hardly yielded any significant material, just a small compensation.

Soon, the stone was fully cut, and the master eagerly announced, "It’s the emperor green!"

The words caused an uproar, disbelief spreading among the crowd.

The master held a piece the size of an egg, revealing a deep green spot the size of a pigeon egg inside.

That deep green was unmistakably emperor green.

No one could believe it; Liu Zekai was especially dumbfounded.

Could such a stone yield emperor green?

Many present offered to buy it, but Yang Chen declined every offer.

He didn’t need the money; gifting a good present to Ye Xin was far more important, especially since he hadn’t expected to find such a valuable piece.

Ye Xin too was stunned, looking at Yang Chen with adoration.

That adoring gaze filled Yang Chen with pride.

Though the emperor green was small, it was indeed a win.

Quality dictates price for jade, and discerning its grade can vastly alter value, especially with emperor green.

Liu Zekai glanced at Yang Chen and turned to leave.

"Hold on! Leave the stone!" Yang Chen signaled Zhao Feiyang.

Zhao Feiyang walked over and snatched the stone from Liu Zekai’s reluctant grasp.

Returning to the nearby resting seats, Yang Chen handed both stones to Zhao Feiyang, instructing, "Check the size of the emperor green. If it’s big, make a pendant; if small, make a ring face. Get the best designer, I want it as a gift for Ye Xin."

"Understood! Rest assured, it won’t disappoint you!" Zhao Feiyang was equally excited; in all his years in the jewelry business, he’d never seen emperor green.

"As for the other two stones, make a bangle from one, you can deal with the rest yourself." Yang Chen said indifferently.

"Alright!" Zhao Feiyang was overjoyed.
