Do Not Speak Ill of My Mother! -
Chapter 327 - 313 made the system silent.
Chapter 327: 313 made the system silent.
The system replied lazily, "No."
Yan Yueqing thought so too, "I figured there wouldn’t be one. After all, that thing is way too buggy. You’re just a system; asking for that is a bit too much for you!"
Upon hearing this, the system almost bristled, "Are you looking down on me?"
"You’ve said before that you’re not the Myriad Worlds Trade Center..." Yueqing said with a grievance, "My bad, it was indeed an impolite request!"
"Hmph!" the system snorted coldly, "Although I’m not the Myriad Worlds Trade Center, something trivial like judging a stone’s nature is certainly within my capabilities!"
"Really? I don’t believe it."
The system huffily replied, "I am the universe’s ultimate, most invincible system that has integrated the essence of multiple industries! In the era when I was created, my master had already discovered that it’s possible to detect the different components inside a stone using special instruments. Even without something like the Perspective Eye, the accuracy of the detection was very close to 100%."
Yan Yueqing exclaimed, "Tong Bao is amazing! Your creator must also be incredible!"
"That’s right~" the system’s mechanical voice even carried a hint of pride, "Pity you’re human and your body can’t handle the energy of those devices. However, with me here, you just have to place your hand on it, and I can analyze the specific components inside the stone for you."
Oh, is that so!
Yan Yueqing immediately became excited to try it out.
Jun Lii, sensing her barely contained excitement, said gently, "Yueqing, would you like to take a look at this stone?"
"Yeah, can I touch it?"
He said, "The stone’s surface is a bit rough with some edges, be careful not to scratch your hand."
Yan Yueqing hummed in affirmation and extended her left hand to touch the stone, then quickly asked in her mind, "How is it? Can you do it like this?"
"Hold still for ten seconds." the system responded.
Yan Yueqing pretended to study the stone earnestly, patiently waiting for ten seconds before she heard the system continue.
"Ding— Analysis complete. The raw stone weighs one ton and thirty-seven kilograms, with the following composition: Ash Stone 99.9%, Glutinous variety 0.03%, Piaohua 0.05%, Ice Type 0.02%. The Ice Type has numerous cracks, not holding much value for collection... The estimated total sale price is around six million."
As it finished speaking, an image appeared in front of Yan Yueqing.
The pathways within the stone and the distribution of each jade piece were presented as clearly as if in a cross-sectional diagram.
Don’t look at the tiny percentage occupied by the jade.
This is a ton-heavy stone; even if it’s just one percent, the calculated amount of jade could still yield ten kilograms!
Ten kilograms! What a concept?! Too bad there are many cracks, the Glutinous variety’s clarity is poor, and the Piaohua’s color is not up to par.
Six million is just enough to break even on the cost.
She had just heard that the starting bid for this stone was ten million, guessing that it would fetch at least thirty or forty million at the end.
Sigh... I wonder which big sucker is going to buy this stone?! If they really buy it, they’ll lose everything, down to their underwear!
Yan Yueqing regretfully withdrew her hand.
Jun Lii noticed that her mood had suddenly dropped and asked considerately, "What’s wrong?"
Not wanting her concerns to be noticed, Yueqing turned around and said, "There are many stones here. Let’s go check out the others."
Jun Lii saw that more and more people were crowding around the huge stone and nodded, "Alright, I’ll come with you."
Yan Yueqing greeted Du Manchang, then took her two sons to walk around the vicinity.
There were many stones, and Yueqing picked and inspected each that caught her eye.
The system’s loading time adjusted according to the size of the stones.
For a very small stone, the system took a second to say, "Pure cobblestone, not a trace of jade in it."
For a stone the size of a fist, the system took two seconds, "Pure Ash Stone, not a trace of jade in it..."
After selecting many stones, the system varied its responses.
"Ding—Pure rock, not a trace of jade content..."
"Ding—The main component of this rock is calcium carbonate, with other parts consisting of silicates and silicon dioxide..."
"Ding—The rock selected by the Host has no commercial value whatsoever..."
"Ding—This is a rock with a smooth exterior, durable texture, and quite brittle and hard..."
Yan Yueqing: ...
No way!
Did she use up all her luck picking that conch pearl?
Now at the raw stone pit, with so many rocks, how come every single one she picks is just a rock?! Not even a little bit of jade content?
The father and sons silently followed behind Yan Yueqing, watching her expression turn from initial happiness to gradual silence...
Jun Yan tugged at his brother’s sleeve with concern, "Does Mom really like rocks that much? Why does she seem more and more unhappy?"
Yan Wang was also puzzled, frowning and replying in a low voice, "Maybe... she hasn’t picked the one she likes?"
"Isn’t this the jade market? How good the stones are, you have to cut them open to know, right?"
Yan Wang shook his head: "Mom isn’t someone greedy for wealth; she came here just to see what Song Qinglong really wants to do. Looking at stones is just incidental..."
Jun Yan thought about it and said, "Then I guess Mom is bored because Song Qinglong hasn’t shown up yet."
Jun Lii didn’t speak, just smiled as he watched the three treasures in action.
Finally, after touching the fifty-first stone, Yan Yueqing completely gave up!
What’s the point of this raw stone market?!
Are they really just using rocks to make up the numbers?
Or is it just her terrible luck? Over fifty stones in a row, and the system almost ran out of adjectives to describe them...
Not even a tiny bit of jade?
Seeing the corners of his mother’s mouth droop in disappointment, Jun Yan hurriedly grabbed a stone at random, "Mom, this stone is quite unique, do you like it?"
Yan Yueqing accepted her son’s kind gesture, just about to speak when the system suddenly announced, "Ding—Inspection complete! The raw stone weighs 300 grams, contains Ice Type Red Jade, which makes up 60% of the stone content, with excellent quality and no cracks, estimated selling price ten million."
Yan Yueqing: !!!
What? She had carefully selected over fifty rocks and not one had anything good in it, but the rock Yan Bao grabbed at random is worth ten million?
She carefully cradled the rock in her hands, her eyes brimming with tears of emotion, "Yan Bao is so awesome! Mom loves this rock so much!"
Ahhh, if it weren’t for having to restrain her greedy nature, she’d have to hug Yan Bao and give him a couple of kisses!
Jun Yan laughed heartily, "As long as Mom is happy~"
Yan Yueqing said excitedly, "Let’s go, Yan Bao, do you have any other rocks you like? Take Mom to choose!"
Jun Yan scratched his head and pointed in a direction, "I just noticed that there are a lot of uniquely shaped rocks over there. Let’s go take a look, Mom?"
"Yes, yes, yes!"
Heading to the stall he mentioned, Yan Yueqing stubbornly picked another three rocks.
As expected... she rendered the system silent.
"Ding—Inspection complete, stone content 100%..."
"Ding—This piece is of no different value from the last one..."
"Ding—Host, please refrain from meticulously selecting rocks."
Yan Yueqing: ...
