Chapter 243: The Best Imperial Green Jade
When Jiang Xuecheng saw Su Wan’s gloomy look, he brought her head into his embrace.
Stone gambling was naturally a type of high risk investment and if one wasn’t careful, they would suffer great loss. With Su Wan’s personality, it was indeed something not suitable for her to be involved in.
Jiang Xuecheng lowered his head slightly and his nostril was filled with the fresh scent of Su Wan’s hair. His lips curved slightly into a nice radian.
“Wan Wan, we have to buy three items anyway. Even if we buy a stone which isn’t valuable for five million dollars, it has shown its value in helping us achieve our objective.”
Su Wan was amused by Jiang Xuecheng’s argument. She smiled as she tilted her face to look at Jiang Xuecheng. “Nonsense, what value is that?”
Just when they were both bantering, the stone cutter had cut the green part of the stone. At first, there were lots of grey but toward the bottom, the green got darker and gradually approached the standard of the best jadeite!
“Wow, such a nice green!”
“It’s really lustrous!”
“How could it be? Isn’t it a spring belt colored Jadeite?”
“It should be glass jadeite! Gosh, number 1311 has gained!”
Su Wan heard the noise outside and shifted her eyes back to the screen. She had not harbored any hope for this stone but when she saw the fresh green color, her heart lifted.
No matter what, this was bought with five million dollars. A piece of jadeite would be better than a piece of stone any time!
Suddenly, the stone cutter stopped and everyone present did not understand why. Then, the stone cutter’s assistant came forward with a flashlight.
When the light was shone on the raw stone, it became clearer on the screen.
When everyone saw the pure and flawless green on the screen, they couldn’t breathe!
Goodness, that was an imperial green jade! It was not an illusion, was it? It was indeed an imperial green jade!
An imperial green jade with such pure and flawless color!
The best type of jadeite was the glass jadeite, while the imperial green jade was the most elegant of glass jadeite.
It had such a strong green without the slightest color deviation, giving off the feeling as if it was a type of oil which could drip any time.
The grey-haired stone cutter, who was extremely calm at first, was now filled with emotions surging within.
He was in the stone gambling industry for many years and had participated in the auction of imperial green jade twice but had never personally cut a raw stone containing imperial green jade before!
Which stone cutter didn’t want a piece of imperial green jade of the best quality to be born in his hands?
Many stone gamblers were chagrined. If they had known that this raw stone might be imperial green jade, they would have dared to bet fifty million for it.
The stone cutter took a deep breath. Perhaps this time, the stone cutting would become the peak of his life!
He wiped off the sweat from his forehead and dared not do it mindlessly. His gestures slowed down and he was extremely carefully not to damage the jade.
Su Wan stared at the stone cutter’s gestures. She leaned against the velvet sofa and her hands couldn’t help trembling. Some of the stone gamblers who were just watching dared not even make noise.
Among the people who were present, only Jiang Xuecheng was the calmest. He was leisurely tasting his red wine like an outsider, without any expression in his eyes.
To him, if it turned out to be an imperial green jade, it would be a bonus but if it was an ordinary jadeite, there was nothing to feel disappointed about.
The purpose he came to the auction was to keep his promise toward Lu Qingyu.
The minutes and seconds passed by. The stone cutter put down the knife and started to use more sophisticated tools.
He cut along the grain and vein of the jade. Gradually, the piece of jade showed its appearance.
When everyone saw that piece of jade, they took a breath of cold air!
Gosh, the inner layer of that jade was a strong green and it was no different from what they had seen a while ago!
The color of the jade was so pure and thick. It was the best of imperial green and it dazzled the eyes of those present.
A feeling of no regret rose in the heart of those who liked jade. They had seen the birth of an imperial green jade with their own eyes!
After completing his task, the stone cutter collapsed, not because he was tired, but excitement filled him from head to toe.
The value of a stone cutter who had personally cut an imperial green jade would definitely rise.
Although the raw stone was not large and only one-third of it was jade, it was enough to strike everyone dumb.
Besides the stone cutter, Helena was the one who was nearest to the raw stone. Amazement filled her beautiful blue eyes.
The thick green was really beautiful! It was unbelievable!
Helena suppressed her excitement. She bowed once again at Room 1311.
“Congratulations, Room 1311. It’s not a spring belt colored jadeite but you’ve unexpectedly gained the surprise of an imperial green jade! Does the owner of this imperial green jade wish to keep this for yourself or to resell it now?”
As soon as this was said, there was silence everywhere. Everyone look at the screen and waited for the jade owner’s reply.
Although Su Wan did not know much about stone gambling, neither did she know about the rules of jadeite. Just by looking at the excitement and craze of the stone cutter and everyone present, she vaguely knew that she seemed to have made a lot of money.
That piece of imperial green jade was indeed very valuable.
Su Wan looked at Jiang Xuecheng helplessly. “Xuecheng, do you think we should resell it now?”
Jiang Xuecheng darted her a glance and with his usual deep voice, he said, “If you like it, you may keep it. We can make you a set of jewelry.”
Su Wan shook her head. She didn’t have much of an obsession with jewelry. Besides wearing her wedding ring designed personally by Jiang Xuecheng, she wore no other accessories.
“Then, let’s resell it.”
Jiang Xuecheng seemed to have expected this answer. He nodded quietly and pressed a button on the auction machine.
When Helena saw Room 1311’s feedback, her blue eyes widened. She raised her hand excitedly and her initial calm voice had now become incoherent.
“Good news! Room 1311 has decided to resell this piece of imperial green jade. Those who like jade, please do not miss this golden opportunity. It’s now or never!”
Helena’s salary was linked to commission, no wonder she was so excited. With this additional item for bidding, it would directly increase her salary!
Before Helena’s voice died down, the atmosphere had been ignited. Instantly, a burst of intense applause was heard.
Someone bid one hundred million dollars and when Su Wan saw so many zeroes on the screen, she was dumbfounded.
She had only managed to guess that the imperial green jade was valuable but had not imagined it would reach such an extent!
However, the numbers on the screen kept increasing by tens of millions and it was approaching two hundred million dollars!
God, this world was too crazy!
