Chapter 416: Chapter 416: Ye Xuan’s Tactics

Ye Xuan was squatting in front of a pile of discarded stones at the moment, holding a piece of waste in his hand and sizing it up with great fondness, as if he couldn’t bear to let it go.

The pile of waste in front of him contained many semi-finished products; most of them had been cut open with a single stroke and thrown aside, with the cut surface revealing a hint of green—clearly an indication of jade within!

At this time, Wei Hongjun walked over to Ye Xuan, looking at the waste in his hand, as everyone else quickly followed and took a look as well.

The waste stone in question had its "window" opened at the top, with a cut that was very smooth and even, exhibiting a thick jade green color. Its luster was vivid, almost dripping, and one could vaguely see a transparent figure within, obviously a piece of high-quality jade.

"Hey, this piece of waste isn’t bad at all! You’ve got a good eye, young man."

Wei Hongjun’s eyes lit up as he couldn’t help but praise aloud.

With his discerning eyes, it wasn’t hard for him to see the abundant vitality of the green within the waste stone—it was most certainly a piece of top-grade jade!

The only thing was that it hadn’t been cut open yet, so the size of the jade was uncertain, but the quality wouldn’t be far off.

Not just him, but the people around could also tell that this piece of waste was very good. In fact, many felt that the value of just this piece could potentially exceed that of Wei Hongjun’s giant boulder by a large margin.

For a moment, many people looked at Ye Xuan with odd glances, recognizing that this youngster deserved his title as the ’windfall king,’ having garnered another bargain.

"I’ll take it for 500,000."

Ye Xuan pulled out Wei Hongjun’s check and handed it over to the staff, purchasing that piece of waste.

Seeing this, many people who were itching to move, couldn’t help but feel disappointed, knowing they were too late.

If they had noticed it sooner, they believed that many would have been willing to buy this piece of waste!

However, it was now Ye Xuan’s possession.

Wei Hongjun also wanted to purchase it; he had an idea, his eyes rolled, and he smiled at Ye Xuan, "Young man, how about we make a deal?"

While speaking, his gaze was fixated on the waste in Ye Xuan’s hand, growing more fond of it by the second—certainly far better than his own rough stone!

He would bet that inside was a guaranteed high-quality jade and that it could net him a handsome profit.

"Oh? What deal do you have in mind? Let’s hear it."

Ye Xuan’s lips curled with amusement as he continued to fiddle with the waste stone in his hand.

"Well... young man, it’s a bit embarrassing to say, but I’d like to trade my giant piece of rough stone for your waste, cough cough! What do you think?"

Wei Hongjun awkwardly suggested, rubbing his hands together, afraid that Ye Xuan would disagree, and quickly added:

"Of course, I, Wei Hongjun, would never let you lose out! Your waste is valued at 500,000 RMB, and I will buy it for the same price. Additionally, I’ll give you my huge rough stone for free! You just need to give me this piece of waste."

Having said this, Wei Hongjun looked at Ye Xuan with anticipation.

His offer was generous; 500,000 RMB for Ye Xuan’s waste and a free giant rough stone on top!

By his calculations, Ye Xuan would have spent nothing and still obtained Wei Hongjun’s rough stone original piece worth more than a hundred thousand.

"Hehe, Boss Wei is truly straightforward! Since that’s the case, I’ll make the trade with you."

Ye Xuan’s face revealed a mysterious smile, and he readily agreed.

Immediately after, Ye Xuan couldn’t wait to hand over the piece of waste to Wei Hongjun.

Er...

This time, it was Wei Hongjun’s turn to be stunned.

He had considered that Ye Xuan might refuse or at least need to think it over for a bit! But he hadn’t expected him to agree so quickly.

Seeing the slight upward curve of Ye Xuan’s mouth, a mysterious arc forming, Wei Hongjun’s eyelids twitched, and a sense of hesitation rose in his mind.

Why did it feel like this guy was even more anxious than him? As if he was just waiting for him to take the bait!

"Boss Wei, being a man of status, I believe you wouldn’t go back on your word, right?" Ye Xuan asked with a smile that was not quite a smile.

"This..."

Wei Hongjun was still hesitant, but after hearing what Ye Xuan said, he became even more uncertain.

Could it be...

That he had deliberately bought this piece of junk, knowing I would trade with him?

A bold idea suddenly surged in Wei Hongjun’s mind, but he quickly dismissed it.

If Ye Xuan truly was that cunning, to first have me buy the raw stone material and then he goes to buy junk, and he had calculated that I, out of greed for this piece of junk, would offer more money and send the raw stone material for a trade, that would be too terrifying!

Even though he had been in the business world for so many years, he couldn’t come up with such an idea on the fly.

Wei Hongjun found it hard to believe that a twenty-something-year-old could have such deep schemes! It seemed he had scared himself, overthinking a simple problem.

Right away, Wei Hongjun shook his head, casting out the somewhat ridiculous thought.

His gaze refocused on Ye Xuan, Wei Hongjun said, "Of course, I, Wei Hongjun, never take back what I say! Do you want cash, a transfer, or a check this time?"

"Cash, please!"

Ye Xuan replied briskly, as he no longer needed to purchase the raw stone, he naturally wanted cash.

Wei Hongjun didn’t waste any words either. He immediately called over his female assistant, whispered instructions to her, and she promptly left.

Before long, the female assistant returned carrying a black leather briefcase, and at Wei Hongjun’s gesture, handed it to Ye Xuan.

Ye Xuan took it over and opened it to see. Eyes met with bright red RMB banknotes, filling the entire briefcase—exactly 500,000!

It looked like this Wei Hongjun was quite credible after all.

At this moment, Ye Xuan’s smile turned up at the corners, revealing a satisfied grin.

However, this smile seemed a bit sly, as if he were a crafty fox.

Seeing it made Wei Hongjun tremble inwardly, feeling as if he had fallen into a trap. That uneasy feeling he’d had before intensified.

And the onlookers’ gazes towards Ye Xuan were filled with strangeness, feeling that this young man was all about schemes!

Because until now, Ye Xuan had not spent a penny and had managed to earn 1.5 million out of thin air, plus a piece of raw stone worth over a hundred thousand.

Damn... this guy was a huge scam!

Thinking this, everyone fell silent.

Some even wondered if he had calculated everything in advance, deliberately leading Wei Hongjun to fall into his trap?

No matter what others thought, Wei Hongjun didn’t care about the money. His goal was Ye Xuan’s junk stone, as 500,000 was just a drop in the bucket to him.

At the moment, he held the junk stone in his hands with a beaming face, observing it and feeling more convinced of its unusualness.

Wei Hongjun rushed excitedly towards the Stone Cutting area, eager to slice open the junk stone and see what the jade inside was worth.

A group of people followed, and Ye Xuan blended in among the crowd, casually strolling along with the briefcase in hand.

"Boss Wei, do you want to have this piece of junk stone cut open?"

After receiving the junk stone from Wei Hongjun, the Stone Cutting Master examined it, marked it with a red line, and asked.

"Definitely cut it open!"

Wei Hongjun’s face was flushed with excitement, and he didn’t hesitate to respond.

Hearing his instruction, the Stone Cutting Master immediately turned on the Stone Cutting Machine and started cutting from the red line.
