Chapter 421: Chapter 421 Crafting Jade Artifacts

"Another piece of Emperor Green?"

As this thought struck them, everyone felt their hearts pounding violently, like drums echoing so intensely they seemed ready to burst out of their chests while their blood boiled instantly.

Upon realizing what was unfolding, Wei Hongjun, who had been overjoyed just moments ago, now twitched at the corner of his mouth, his face lined with frustration.

Two pieces of Emperor Green—if it were true, then wasn’t his bid of three hundred million too hasty?

Could it be...

This kid did it on purpose, cutting out a piece for auction first, then reeling him in to make a killing!

Thinking more deeply, Wei Hongjun’s forehead beaded with more sweat and suddenly, he woke to the realization.

At that moment, he finally understood—Ye Xuan had had his strategy planned out all along.

Be it the two pieces of scrap he had picked up earlier or the large rough stone in front of him, he had played them all like a fiddle!

Not only had he not spent a penny, but he also earned an Emperor Green and one and a half million! Plus his own three billion...

Damn it... I’ve screwed the pooch!

The realization left Wei Hongjun dumbfounded as he cursed in his heart.

He wasn’t unfamiliar with the concept of making a windfall out of nothing—on the contrary, he’d seen it many times.

But to see it done like Ye Xuan, with such refreshing sophistication and to such an earth-shattering degree, was definitely a first for him!

So young, yet possessing such keen insight and deep cunning, he was even more frightening than those old monsters who had lived for many years.

Wei Hongjun looked at Ye Xuan with a hint of awe; the identity of this young man was definitely not ordinary.

Compared to the shock of the crowd around him and Wei Hongjun’s newfound respect,

Ye Xuan was focused, his entire attention on the rough gemstone before him.

Crack!

He set the mace-like rough stone at his feet, the stone cutting machine in his hand chopping down again and again, with wide, sweeping strokes.

Chips of stone flew everywhere. Ye Xuan’s movements were even quicker than before, almost blurring into a single phantom, leaving the neighboring stone cutter masters slack-jawed with amazement.

He had been cutting stones his whole life and had never seen anyone reach this level of speed!

It was beyond belief.

With his final cut, Ye Xuan peeled away the remaining husk, exposing the true face within.

A radiant green light emerged, the color was pure and unmatched, clean and clear without a single flaw.

This pure green, reflected in the eyes of the crowd around, made their hearts skip a beat as if struck by a heavy hammer!

This... Another Emperor Green!!!

"Indeed, it’s Emperor Green!"

"Incredible..."

"Hiss!"

Gazing at the vibrant and luscious green hue within the mace-like rough stone, the crowd erupted, and exclamations and sharp intakes of breath filled the air.

At this moment, every face in the crowd showed an expression of extreme shock.

If before they had suspected that Ye Xuan’s finds were simply due to luck, the reality before their eyes was a resounding slap in the face.

Why did he separate the stone into two pieces, and how could each piece contain Emperor Green?

It was utterly inexplicable—there could be only one reason: Ye Xuan relied on genuine skill!

It seemed that Ye Xuan had already known in advance that even if the Emperor Green jade appeared, he showed no surprise.

However, Ye Xuan’s composure once again sent the surrounding jewelry merchants into a frenzy.

Wei Hongjun had already spent three hundred million, and it was impossible for him to bid again; this piece of Emperor Green was their opportunity.

Therefore, everyone bid frantically, determined to procure the Emperor Green for themselves.

But at that moment, Ye Xuan shook his head and said indifferently, "Ladies and gentlemen! Unbelievably, this piece of Emperor Green is not for sale."

What, not for sale?

At Ye Xuan’s words, all the jewelry merchants, including others present, were stunned.

Originally, they had believed that since Wei Hongjun had spent three hundred million to purchase the first piece of Emperor Green, he could not bid again, allowing them the chance to secure this piece of Emperor Green.

But unexpectedly, Ye Xuan said he wouldn’t sell it.

They were all businesspeople, and for them, as long as the price was right, there was no deal that couldn’t be made!

Although they couldn’t reach the high price of three hundred million, one hundred million was still feasible.

One hundred million yuan, for the ordinary person, was already an unimaginable fortune, and Ye Xuan had no reason to forsake such an amount.

Yet, he refused so nonchalantly, as if a hundred million was no different to him than a thousand.

Just as everyone’s hearts were filled with reluctance and they were about to persuade him further.

Ye Xuan no longer paid them any mind, turning his gaze to Wei Hongjun, "Boss Wei, I will sell you the previous piece of Emperor Green jade for three hundred million! But for this one, I would like to ask you a favor—to craft a pair of bracelets and a pendant for me."

Hearing Ye Xuan’s request, Wei Hongjun, who was still dumbfounded, shuddered as if struck by a bomb.

At that moment, he felt happiness come so suddenly, he was somewhat dazed.

The Emperor Green’s inherent value was extraordinary and eye-catching; if turned into jewelry like bracelets, it would surely attract countless attentions.

Now, Ye Xuan entrusting him with this business was a complete show of trust and a tremendous opportunity!

Probably, every jewelry merchant in the Jianghai Region would be eager to take on this task, even if it meant paying Ye Xuan, just for the chance to enhance their jewelry store’s fame.

Crafting a bracelet from Emperor Green—who would let such a chance slip by?

As expected, in an instant, the eyes of the surrounding jewelry merchants filled with envy as they looked at Wei Hongjun.

Wei Hongjun was already a leading figure in Jianghai’s jewelry industry, and now not only had he purchased a piece of Emperor Green, but he was also going to craft jewelry from it.

This meant his leading position in Jianghai’s jewelry industry was untouchable, and he would even secure a place within the jewelry industry of Yan Country.

"Brother, rest assured! You trust me, Old Wei, and I will not disappoint you. I will craft this piece of Emperor Green jade into the most beautiful bracelet in the entire Jianghai Province, guaranteed to your satisfaction."

Wei Hongjun was visibly excited, his complexion tinged red with elation, even more so than when he had himself cut open a piece of jade.

Having said that, he promptly instructed the beautiful assistant beside him:

"Hurry, call Manager Li from the East Sea Bank and have him issue a check for three hundred million yuan, and send it over quickly!"

The assistant obeyed and immediately stepped aside to make the call.

Liu Ying was also taken aback at this moment, surprised that Ye Xuan intended to have the second piece of Emperor Green crafted into a bracelet.

Bracelets, of course, were women’s accessories, and men wouldn’t wear them—was he perhaps intending to gift it to someone?

A bracelet made of Emperor Green was a treasured possession reserved for empresses and imperial concubines, of incalculable worth.

Liu Ying couldn’t fathom who would be so honored to receive such a precious gift from Ye Xuan.

However, Liu Ying was also a woman, and naturally coveted jewelry made from Emperor Green.

Thinking this, she blinked her eyes and approached Ye Xuan, flashing a seductive smile, "Ye Xuan, after the Emperor Green jewelry is crafted, could you gift your sister one? Of course, I won’t ask for it for free; I’ll pay you the market rate, whatever it is!"
