Chapter 1373
Seeing Ye Xiao chatting with Shangguan Qiuwei, Ou Baisheng did not come to disturb them. At this point, if he expressed his dissatisfaction to Ye Xiao, it would probably be useless, and would instead cause Ye Xiao's disgust.
And the Ou family cannot fall out with Ye Xiao now.
But it does not mean that this matter will just pass. Just like Ye Xiao had repeatedly ruined the good things of his Ou family before, he would remember this account with Ye Xiao. As long as there is a suitable opportunity, he will find a chance to retaliate.
Fifty minutes passed quickly, and after Zang Xiong announced that the time was over.
Lu Tiankui and his assistant finished work on time and walked towards the edge of the mine. At this time, Lu Tiankui's face was still full of smiles.
When he walked to Ye Xiao, he squinted his eyes and sighed with a smile: "Mr. Ye, I'm not as fast as you, I only picked six pieces of raw stones!"
"But in my opinion, the jade from any of the raw stones I selected can be worth all yours, hahaha!"
Lu Tiankui did not hide his disdain for Ye Xiao, which was due to the fact that Ye Xiao knew almost nothing about gambling on stones just now, and also because he had picked up several pieces of raw stones of good quality in the mine.
Hearing Lu Tiankui's words, Shangguan Qiuwei's heart sank a little more, and she believed more and more that Ye Xiao had no chance of winning this time.
However, Ye Xiao raised his lips and chuckled, "Mr. Lu, don't say it so early, be careful of being slapped in the face later! I said, my luck in gambling has always been very good, and I can often win all the games!"
"Tsk!" Lu Tiankui sneered coldly, "Well, Mr. Ye, let's wait and see!"
After that, Lu Tiankui looked at the gloomy Ou Baisheng on the side and said playfully: "Ou Baisheng, just wait and prepare the mineral transfer contract!"
Ou Baisheng glared at Lu Tiankui with gloomy eyes, wanting to fight back, but he didn't have the confidence at all, because he didn't have any hope for the rough stones selected by Ye Xiao.
Even after Ye Xiao's twelve rough stones were put into the backpack by his assistant and carried up one by one, he didn't even take a look at them.
At this time, Zang Xiong said, "Ou Baisheng, since they have all selected the raw stones, you ask someone to take out the stone-cutting machine and determine the winner as soon as possible!"
Although Zang Xiong already knew who would win and who would lose, the process still had to be followed.
Ou Baisheng then weakly instructed the mine manager to do as Zang Xiong said.
Since the mine often needs to cut the raw stones for buyers to inspect, several stone-cutting machines were prepared. Not long after, the mine manager and several professional stone-cutting masters came out pushing a stone-cutting machine.
"Who will start first?" Zang Xiong said casually after the stone-cutting machine was installed.
At this time, he was already thinking about some plans after this matter. He had almost no interest in this suspenseless bet.
Hong Lie's thoughts were almost the same as Zang Xiong's. They were all thinking about how to plan after leaving the mine, and how to prevent the other party from setting an ambush halfway.
However, unlike Zang Xiong who didn't care about winning or losing, Hong Lie still wanted to see Ye Xiao lose.
"Let's start with Mr. Ye's! After all, it's not difficult to cut his rough stone. One cut will do it."
Lu Tiankui took out a cigarette leisurely and looked at Ye Xiao indifferently.
His words were full of sarcasm. Generally, only when there is no jade or very little jade in the rough stone, the stone cutter will cut it with one cut.
"Okay!" Ye Xiao said calmly.
"But, my rough stone can't be cut with one cut. If it's cut badly, it might lose half of the small target."
After Ye Xiao finished speaking, Lu Tiankui and Lin Changbai both laughed.
The northern part of the Jade Country borders the Dragon Country, and some places even use the Dragon Country's signal network, so they can naturally understand what Ye Xiao said.
Half of a small target, they don't know how Ye Xiao had the nerve to say it.
Let alone tens of millions, if Ye Xiao's raw stone can produce a few thousand pieces of jade, it would be a blessing for Ye Xiao.
Ye Xiao didn't care at all about the ridicule of Lu Lin and the others. He walked to his pile of raw stones, casually took out a gray-brown raw stone about the size of a basketball, and placed it on the stone cutter.
"Here, here, polish it for me!" Ye Xiao said while drawing on the surface of the raw stone with a marker.
"Haha! Mr. Ye, you really know how to waste time! Is it necessary to polish it?" Lu Tiankui sneered.
Ou Baisheng was also speechless about Ye Xiao. Ye Xiao was very careless when selecting raw stones, but when it came to cutting the stones, he was so particular., I really don't know what's the point of doing this kind of useless work.
After hearing what Ye Xiao said, the stone cutter nodded, and immediately fixed the rough stone, and then proceeded to polish it according to what Ye Xiao said.
At this time, the only person on the field who had expectations for the rough stone selected by Ye Xiao, besides Ye Xiao himself, was Shangguan Qiuwei. Others were either waiting to see Ye Xiao's joke, or their minds had already flown away from the mine.
"It's boring, it's really boring! I should have opened mine first. I'm afraid his rough stone has been worn through, and there's not a single bit of green!"
Lu Tiankui said sarcastically while smoking a cigarette.
But the next second, the stone cutter exclaimed, "It's green, it's green!"
"Ah!"
Lu Tiankui opened his mouth wide immediately. The stone cutter only polished it for a minute, and it turned out green?
This is too fast!
But soon he thought of a possibility, so he glanced at the stone cutter and sneered: "Why are you screaming? At most, there is only one layer on the outside."
This situation is often encountered in the gambling stone field. Generally, the raw stones that increase quickly are like this. One cut is heaven and the next cut is hell. It's just that you are happy in the front, and there will be nothing after cutting it.
However, Ou Baisheng, who was not optimistic about Ye Xiao, suddenly turned his eyes and said excitedly: "A large piece of python has color, and rubbing the python makes people crazy."
He remembered that he had just glanced at it inadvertently. The raw stone that Ye Xiao moved to the stone cutter happened to have a large piece of python pattern, and the place where Ye Xiao asked the stone cutter to rub was exactly the area where the python pattern was.
"There is definitely high-quality jade in this raw stone!" Ou Baisheng walked closer excitedly.
Seeing Ou Baisheng like this, Shangguan Qiuwei couldn't help but be stunned. Didn't Ye Xiao just pick the raw stone casually?
Moreover, at the beginning, Ou Baisheng was secretly complaining about Ye Xiao, why is he so sure now?
After hearing Ou Baisheng's words, Lu Tiankui was also shocked, and at this time he also remembered the secret of gambling on stones.
Could it be that the rough stone that the boy picked up casually was really a good one?
At this time, even Zang Xiong and Hong Lie, who were watching from afar and had no great interest in unraveling Ye Xiao's rough stone, now cast their eyes on the stone-cutting machine.
At this time, only Ye Xiao himself was the calmest, because all this had been expected by him.
You know, the rough stones he selected were all favored by Lu Tiankui, so how could this one, which he carefully selected, be bad?
As the stone-cutting master ground out the area marked by Ye Xiao bit by bit, the rest of the rough stone was transparent, looking like pure crystal.
Only the area that was ground out at the beginning had a group of erratic green.
"Hahaha, this is actually glass-type floating jade!" Ou Baisheng was surprised again.
Glass-type is a relatively high-grade water-type among jadeite. It is extremely rare and the floating jade is even more precious. Its value is second only to the imperial green.
Moreover, only about half an inch of the surface of Ye Xiao's rough stone is miscellaneous stones, and the rest is this kind of glass-type with floating jade. If it is sold to a jade buyer, this size of floating jade can be worth at least 80 or 90 million.
"It's really floating jade!" Seeing this scene, Lu Tiankui couldn't help but twitch his mouth, as if it was hard to believe.
"Mr. Lu, I don't know how this rough stone of mine is? Do you still have the confidence to use one piece to replace all of mine?" Ye Xiao looked at Lu Tiankui with a smile and said.
Lu Tiankui swallowed hard. Facing Ye Xiao directly opening a piece of floating jade worth 80 or 90 million, he didn't have much confidence to win Ye Xiao.
However, he still pretended to be calm and said: "In this raw stone mine, the raw stones directly selected have a higher water yield than those in the gambling stone field outside because they are not mixed with other stones. This can only be regarded as your bad luck."
"I still don't believe that every piece you can open will be green!"
In Lu Tiankui's opinion, Ye Xiao was at most lucky with this first piece. Maybe every piece after that is garbage. In this case, he may still be better than Ye Xiao.
Hearing this, Ye Xiao did not get angry but laughed: "Mr. Lu is right. It is indeed impossible for every piece of my raw stones to be green, but I can guarantee that the value of each piece is far better than the raw stone you selected."
