Chapter 633: Six hundred thirty-one, jade

"Come on! I’ll always support you," Zhang Qi said with a smile, making a cheering gesture toward Liu Mengyao. Since she didn’t understand the specifics, she could only offer her spiritual support.

Chen Xiaomeng set down her cup, still savoring the taste of yogurt at the corner of her mouth, "I support you too! Actually, I have a dream myself. Once I graduate, I want to open a restaurant, then I can eat anytime I want."

The rest rolled their eyes speechlessly. They truly didn’t understand the world of a food lover. Only she would consider opening a restaurant just to satisfy her cravings.

"I’m serious, it’s not just about eating. Last summer vacation, I went to a mountain city and their hot pot was so delicious, spicy and full of flavor. I’m thinking of bringing that hot pot to Jinchen in the future, creating my own brand, and then expanding my hot pot restaurant across the entire Yan Country," Chen Xiaomeng said earnestly.

"That’s doable; I didn’t expect you to have such a head for business apart from your appetite! Now that you all have goals, what should I do?" Zhang Qi pondered with narrowed eyes. It seemed she also needed to plan her own future.

"We can collaborate! Just like Luo Shu and Zhang Xiaoling," Chen Xiaomeng suggested. Being somewhat lazy, she felt that teaming up with Zhang Qi might increase their chances of success.

"I’d rather not, I’m not interested in food," Zhang Qi responded. She believed it was best not to mix money with friendship as it could potentially damage the relationship.

"Actually, it’s not necessary to go into business, but if you really want to do it, I do have a suggestion," Luo Shu said with a smile, looking at Zhang Qi.

"Speak!" Zhang Qi looked keenly at Luo Shu.

Taking a sip of yogurt from her cup, Luo Shu asked, "Do you know where jade comes from?"

"I don’t," Zhang Qi shook her head.

The others looked equally puzzled, unfamiliar with these details.

"Jade is actually hidden inside rocks. If you’re interested, you can buy some raw stones now and keep them. Later, when the jade’s price goes up, you can extract the jade from those raw stones." She too had some raw stones stored in her space, which she might extract in the future.

"Jade can be found inside rocks?" They looked at Luo Shu in disbelief.

"Of course, I have a split raw stone in my room; I’ll go get it for you to see," Luo Shu said, standing up and heading to her room. They were her best friends; even though she couldn’t help them with True Cultivation, she had many ways to make money. She was ready to assist them if they desired, just hoping they could be happy and contented throughout their lives.

Before long, Luo Shu returned with a fist-sized raw stone.

After sitting down, Luo Shu placed the raw stone on the coffee table and let go, allowing it to split in two. The parting of the stone revealed a mysterious purple hue.

"Why is it purple?" Wang Fei asked curiously.

"This is Violet, one of the types of jade. Besides traditional Green Jade, there are Red Jade, Yellow Jade, Purple Jade, and even black jade. Jade is categorized into types like Glass Type, Water Type, Ice Type, Hibiscus Type, Bean Type, and so on. Glass Type is the best, with the most fine-grained crystals and highest transparency; it’s the most valuable jade, suitable for collection and investment. This bracelet, for instance, is made from Violet jade. It’s not Glass Type, but it still holds considerable value," Luo Shu said while pulling a Violet jade bracelet from her pocket and placing it on the table.

"Wow! What a beautiful bracelet!"

"This is the first time I’m seeing jade of this color."

"The bracelet you gave me last time, it wasn’t by any chance also extracted by you from a rock, was it?" Wang Fei swung the bracelet on her wrist as she asked.

"Yes," Luo Shu nodded with a smile.

"I’m amazed!" Wang Fei showed deep admiration and made a gesture of respect toward Luo Shu, "The color of my bracelet is so clear. Could it be what you call Glass Type?"

"Mhm," Luo Shu nodded.

"You’re too generous!" Wang Fei exclaimed with a radiant smile, giving Luo Shu a thumbs-up.

Zhang Qi picked up the bracelet on the table, along with half of the raw stone, and examined them. "The outer layer of this stone doesn’t seem different from an ordinary rock. How can I tell if there’s jade inside?"

"You would need to judge by the appearance of its skin. If you’re interested, I have some materials about raw stones that you can take home and study," Luo Shu suggested.

"That would be great!" Zhang Qi nodded happily. She felt she had found her future direction.

"Then where do we find these raw stones?" Chen Xiaomeng became interested in raw stones as well. Stones were everywhere, but did that mean they had to cut each one open?

"Gong Country, Southern Sky, both have them. After the holidays are over, let’s take a trip to Southern Sky together. I’ll show you where you can find these raw stones," Luo Shu said. It had been some time since her last outing, and it would be a great opportunity to explore with her friends.

"Don’t forget you’re pregnant," they reminded her.

"Seriously, you should just stay home and take care of the baby," they advised.

"If something happens to you, Lu the War God will come for us," they warned.

"Stop! Stop! Stop! Don’t forget I’m a doctor. I know my own body best. Plus, I even went to the disaster area with Hanmo last time, and nothing happened," Luo Shu said somewhat helplessly. She appreciated their concern but assured them that she knew her limits and would never do anything to harm the baby.

"But you’re pregnant, and a long journey can be quite exhausting. Southern Sky is not exactly close," they argued.

"Or maybe we should wait until after you’ve given birth to make the trip," they suggested. While they understood Luo Shu’s perspective, they were still worried.

"But I want to go out. In a word, will you join me or not?" Luo Shu’s eyes twinkled mischievously as she gave them a sly grin.

They exchanged glances, looked at Luo Shu’s belly, and hesitated.

"If Lu the War God has no objections, I’ll join you," one of them said.

"Same here," echoed another.

"Mhm!" They all wanted to go as well, but Luo Shu’s condition made them cautious. They couldn’t take responsibility if anything went wrong.

"Then I’ll call him now," Luo Shu said, standing up and walking toward the nearby phone.
