Chapter 532: Chapter 529: Mogang Rock Waste Material
Liu Yuxuan had been involved in stone gambling for many years and had some ability to assess stones.
That piece, with moss suffused throughout, was clearly already cut through. It was impossible that Jadeite could still be extracted from within.
That someone could still take an interest in such waste material meant they either were not of sound mind, completely oblivious to the art of stone gambling, or they truly intended to use the broken pieces of jade for a mosaic as they said.
"Five thousand is too low, ten thousand if you want it. Moreover, I want a cash transaction."
Liu Yuxuan was not willing to entangle further with this person, and with an impatient wave of her hand, she said.
Ouyang Jun was delighted inside but still showed some difficulty on his face, "Ten thousand is too much, this is waste material after all."
Liu Yuxuan’s expression turned cold, "If you don’t want it, forget it. I don’t need this ten thousand."
Ouyang Jun pretended to concede reluctantly, "Fine, fine, I’ll take a loss then."
Saying so, he took out a bundle of unopened banknotes from his bag, freshly withdrawn from the bank, and handed them to Liu Yuxuan.
Liu Yuxuan, having lost two million in a flash, didn’t care much about the ten thousand. Taking the money without even counting it, she simply tossed it into her bag, gave no further glance to Ouyang Jun, and led Zhou Jiajia out through the crowd,
"Brother Huo’s sister!" Seeing Liu Yuxuan leave with Zhou Jiajia, Ouyang Jun quickly walked over, clutching the two pieces of waste material with glee.
"Sister, I bought this waste material just as you instructed, isn’t it time you revealed the mystery? If you don’t, my heart won’t be at ease for doing this favor. Tell me, is there something more hidden inside this waste material?"
Seeing Ouyang Jun return with the waste material, Qin Tian was stunned, Wu Jun was stunned, and both Su Qingqing and Bai Yishan were stunned as well.
None of them had expected Huo Sining to still be interested in those two pieces of waste, openly negotiating with Liu Yuxuan and secretly having Ouyang Jun buy them back.
However, all of them were aware of Huo Sining’s formidable gambling skills and knew she did not act without reason. Since she had chosen to do this, it was certain there was more to the material.
But this was universally acknowledged waste, utterly devoid of any gambling potential. The woman surnamed Liu, with her triple cuts and increases, such a gamble expert herself deemed this rough stone worthless and gave it up. How could Huo Sining still see an opportunity there?
A sense of curiosity suddenly arose in everyone’s hearts, a tantalizing desire to know what surprise lay hidden within the stone.
Although they all knew Huo Sining was capable of creating miracles, nobody would ever grow tired of witnessing them.
Huo Sining smiled, picked up the piece of Mogang Rock waste, examined it, confirmed it was indeed the piece cut from Liu Yuxuan’s rough stone, and was relieved, "If you are so curious, then wait for me to cut this piece. Then you’ll know."
Huo Sining didn’t touch the piece with the moss-green pattern; she just carried the piece of Mogang Rock, weighing less than five kilograms, toward the stone cutting machine.
By then it was just past six o’clock, almost seven, and the people on the streets of Guangcheng had gradually left, leaving only a few scattered customers who gathered on the square to watch the excitement. Seeing Huo Sining preparing to cut the stone, they immediately crowded around like cats that had caught the scent of fish.
"Hey, isn’t this the scrap material that was just cut from that woman surnamed Liu’s rough stone? How did it end up in this woman’s hands?"
Many people had previously gathered around Liu Yuxuan’s stone cutting machine to watch her cut the stone, so as soon as they saw the Mogang Rock in Huo Sining’s hands, someone immediately recognized it.
"Yeah, it really is, I didn’t even notice until you mentioned it. Just now, this woman wanted to buy that piece of scrap material from the woman surnamed Liu for one hundred thousand, but the woman surnamed Liu did not agree. I didn’t expect this woman to eventually buy it, but I bet definitely for less than one hundred thousand."
"This woman must be a fool, ten thousand yuan for a piece of scrap material is bad enough, but why isn’t she cutting that piece with mossy green instead of fiddling with this piece of Mogang Rock? Does she have a mental illness? Can you really cut jadeite out of Mogang Rock?"
"I also feel doubtful, has this woman gone crazy over jadeite?"
...
The onlookers were buzzing with discussion, looking at Huo Sining as if she were an idiot; Huo Sining didn’t care about how those people saw her. In her opinion, no matter the texture of the stone, as long as it could yield jadeite, it was good rough material. With Heavenly Eye, these stones were no different from being transparent.
This piece of Mogang Rock was exactly the one that was cut from that moss-eaten green, obviously a product from the jadeite belt, probably due to the disturbance of the rock layer, which caused it to mutate as well.
However, due to its special rock layer, only a small part of this stone had transformed into jadeite, while the rest remained plain rocky material.
Huo Sining was well aware that the probability of encountering jadeite in Mogang Rock was very low. If it hadn’t been for her Heavenly Eye that allowed her to see through the surface of the rock, the superior jadeite within this piece of scrap might have been missed by her, or even abandoned at a waste stone factory to be used as building material.
While contemplating, Huo Sining’s hands were quick, her motions in cutting stone were as swift and smooth as Jade Glass, without any pause. In less than ten minutes, she had peeled off the entire outer layer of the Mogang Rock, leaving a rough piece weighing less than two kilograms, turning the stone into a tetrahedron.
At this point, Huo Sining’s expression became serious. She had never cut jadeite in such condition before, so even with Heavenly Eye allowing her to see inside the stone, she still found it challenging.
After some thought, she didn’t use the stone cutting machine again but picked up a grinding wheel that was placed nearby and started to carefully sand the cut surface of the rock.
Some onlookers couldn’t stand to watch any longer, shook their heads, and walked away, but there were also some who had nothing better to do and still gathered around Huo Sining’s stone cutting machine.
When Huo Sining polished the rough material, her movements were extremely cautious, fearing that she might damage the jadeite inside. Soon, a hint of green mist began to emerge from within the Mogang Rock.
As Wu Jun poured water onto the rock, the trickling fragments were washed away, revealing the secrets hidden inside the stone.
The appearance of the green mist proved that there really was jadeite hidden in the stone. At this point, no one among the onlookers dared to laugh at Huo Sining for being a fool anymore, and even Ouyang Jun, who had helped Huo Sining buy these two pieces of scrap, felt a touch of excitement.
Ouyang Jun and his group were different from those just looking for entertainment; they had known Huo Sining for a long time. Although they had not seen Huo Sining cutting stones, they had witnessed her jadeite gambling skills. Seeing Huo Sining cutting the stone so cautiously, they guessed that the jadeite hidden inside this rock was definitely not simple.
The several cuts previously made by Huo Sining with the stone cutting machine were very ingenious, almost skimming past the jadeite.
In doing so, she saved a lot of time, neither damaging the jadeite inside nor quickly revealing the green.
