Chapter 134: Chapter 132 Apology
"Polishing?" Upon hearing Ye Feng’s words, everyone sneered and looked at him.
"Kid, I think you’re just deliberately stalling. Whether you cut or polish it, the result will be the same, unchangeable, you know that?" Hu Ban sneered at Ye Feng.
Ye Feng knew how big the jade inside the raw stone was, and indeed, cutting it would be a waste.
Li Xue’er was furious, "What? If Brother Ye Feng says polish, we polish. Can’t we? Or are you afraid you’ll lose and refuse to admit it?"
"Ridiculous! Am I that kind of person? Go ahead, polish it, but let me tell you, if you lose, resign yourselves to leaving our Nanhong City market!" Hu Ban said.
"Brother Ye Feng’s judgment won’t be wrong!" Li Xue’er was full of confidence.
"Alright, let us see whether it is wrong or right!" Hu Ban was equally confident.
Then, the Stone Cutting Master turned on the machine and began polishing.
After about ten minutes, the first layer of stone was polished off, and they all looked at it with contemptuous eyes.
After one layer, there was nothing.
"A complete waste of time. I don’t know what Old Sir Li was thinking, actually trusting such a country bumpkin..." Lu Kang said disdainfully. Beside him, Lu Hangfeng, though silent, showed no sign of objection.
Everyone looked at Ye Feng and the other two with disdain, as if staring at idiots.
"It’s green!" But just then, a loud, shocking shout reverberated throughout the venue.
The Stone Cutting Master’s face was filled with shock as a streak of green light flashed by.
That green, pure and unblemished, was as if there was a radiant green light on the surface.
"What!" In an instant, everyone shouted in shock, staring dumbfounded at the raw stone.
The Stone Cutting Master’s hands began to tremble, "Emperor... Emperor Green!"
The crowd was incredibly shocked, completely unimaginable.
"It really is Emperor Green, how is this possible!" Jewelers one after another shouted in disbelief.
"Emperor Green! It’s actually Emperor Green!" Li Linfeng was so excited he nearly cried; the scene was just like the first time he met Ye Feng.
The dazzling green color was intoxicating, and Lu Hangfeng and his son were utterly dumbstruck.
However, Ye Feng remained calm, as if he had foreseen the outcome, and said lightly, "Don’t shake, continue!"
Ye Feng’s words acted like a shot of adrenaline for the Stone Cutting Master, instantly restoring his composure.
The Stone Cutting Master continued to polish, and then, piece by piece, green appeared before everyone’s eyes.
Ten minutes later, the polishing was complete, and the jade was washed clean.
The blindingly bright green light astonished everyone present.
"Such! Such a large piece of Emperor Green, unheard, unseen!" The crowd was astounded to the extreme!
After all, this was Emperor Green, the size of a watermelon, everyone thought they were dreaming.
"Old Sir Li, I offer ten billion!" Someone couldn’t hold back and shouted, with an incredibly wild look in their eyes and a trembling voice, unable to suppress the excitement in their heart.
"I bid twelve billion!" People were calling out loudly.
"I’ll give fifteen billion!" For everyone there, it was a treasure beyond measure, such a large piece of Emperor Green, who knew how many valuable creations could be made from it.
"Quiet down, everyone!" Li Linfeng shouted, but he could hardly suppress the joy in his heart.
Li Linfeng felt like slapping himself hard—why did he doubt Ye Feng just now? Don’t doubt those you hire; don’t hire those you doubt. Since he chose to trust Ye Feng, he should have had faith in him.
Even he, an old man who had lived for more than sixty years, was not as thorough-thinking as his granddaughter.
Li Xue’er sneered coldly, looking at Hu Ban and Seventh Uncle with a mocking gaze, "Hu Ban, Seventh Uncle, what do you have to say? I remember that you just said if this jade turned out to be valuable, you would do what?"
Hearing Li Xue’er’s words, Hu Ban and Seventh Uncle were embarrassingly at a loss.
Hu Ban felt incredible regret, not expecting Ye Feng, who seemed unremarkable, to have such a keen eye; such a premium jade was unveiled by Ye Feng.
"I..." Seventh Uncle was extremely embarrassed, not knowing what to say, remembering too well his disdain just a while ago when he declared with certainty: "No need, it’s just a worthless piece!"
Thinking back now, it all seemed so ludicrous.
"Haha!" Li Linfeng felt immensely proud, looking at Seventh Uncle, he said, "Old Seven, there’s no need to follow through on your promise. Truthfully, Ye Feng wouldn’t want you. You’re not qualified enough to be his disciple!"
"Old Sir Li, you!" Seventh Uncle was extremely irritated by Li Linfeng’s words.
Li Linfeng chuckled and looked at Seventh Uncle, "Don’t get angry, I’m not insulting you. Frankly, when I first met Ye Feng, I said the same thing to him. Sadly, I’m not qualified to be Ye Feng’s disciple, otherwise, I’d be his old disciple now, haha!"
Li Linfeng was honest; since it happened, there was no need to hide it.
"Old Sir Li too!" The crowd looked at Li Linfeng in surprise.
"Indeed, I bet with Ye Feng once, and if I lost, I would become his disciple, but Ye Feng wouldn’t take me, there was nothing I could do..." Li Linfeng shook his head helplessly.
Upon hearing Li Linfeng’s words, Seventh Uncle’s anger dissipated. So, it wasn’t just him who fell to Ye Feng; Li Linfeng had been in the same situation before.
With that realization, Seventh Uncle no longer had a reason to be upset, and he approached Ye Feng with a respectful bow, his attitude sincere, "Young Master Ye Feng, I was too arrogant before. Indeed, my vision is not as good as yours. Please forgive me."
Seeing Seventh Uncle’s sincere apology, naturally, Ye Feng had no reason to hold a grudge.
Ye Feng waved his hand, "Let’s put this matter behind us; don’t dwell on it."
"Thank you, young master!" Seventh Uncle nodded and then returned to stand behind Lu Hangfeng.
Li Xue’er turned to Hu Ban, "And you, Hu Ban, what did you say before? If the jade turned out to be valuable, you would kneel and apologize, right?"
