Chapter 29: The Treasure in the Stepping Stone (1)
Soon, Li Yang found a suitable place to make his move and put away his special ability as he prepared to cut the half piece of gambling stone.
"Hiss!"
The stone cutter started working, and Li Yang's heart was also beating faster. In the past few days, he had supplemented a lot of basic knowledge and had already understood many of the most basic common sense about jadeite.
"It's glass species, definitely glass species, and that green one, it's actually all green, heavenly, imperial green!"
Li Yang's heart was almost shouting to himself, "Glass Emperor Green Jade", these few words were enough to scare people, this top-grade jadeite was something that even with money, you couldn't buy.
Li Yang still remembers that at the Qingdao Jewelry Exhibition, an ordinary glass Buddha pendant was sold for 2 million. Now, making a beautiful pendant with this piece is absolutely no problem. If it's really imperial green jade, it must be worth tens of millions.
Li Yang's attention was completely absorbed by the piece of glass on the ground, which was a small block of jadeite velvet fabric. Earlier, Li Yang had seen it clearly, and that piece of jadeite velvet fabric was actually being pressed under the stone grinder as a small footstone, its small body supporting the massive stone grinder.
This piece of stepping stone is only half the size of a palm, it's a cut-open agate, the surface of the agate is all dirt, and there's an eye-catching horsehair inclusion on the cut surface.
Those familiar with jade trading know that "zi" refers to cracks, which are extremely harmful to jade. Experienced individuals also know the saying: "Don't fear large zi, fear small zi." Horse-tail zi is a particularly severe form of small zi, with incredibly destructive power. Even if there's green inside, it can still be ruined by horse-tail zi and become unusable. This has led to another industry proverb: "Rather gamble on color than gamble on zi; don't gamble on horse-tail zi."
This small piece of waste stone has also produced a similarly rare horse-tail whisker, no wonder it was used as a footstone. I'm afraid nobody would have thought that such a piece of scrap material would contain the top-grade glass emperor green, this probability is as difficult to encounter as a comet colliding with the earth.
"Got it!"
Half a piece of wool was quickly cut open by Li Yang, and this time the cutting surface revealed green again, and it was a big patch of green.
The four of them exchanged a glance again, and Old Guo lightly shook his head. Today's stone had really satisfied their craving for the elevator, earlier that half piece only yielded such a small amount, while this half piece seemed to be all, one piece of gambler's material cut into two completely different half pieces of gambler's material.
This feeling is not as if it's heaven one moment and hell the next, but one moment in the mortal world and the next in heaven is absolutely true. Now, the value of this half piece of fabric has increased again, and its value alone is over 30 million.
Wang Haomin stared blankly at the wool on the dehairing machine, and suddenly remembered a common saying: Life is spent in ups and downs.
The most complicated mood was Zhang Wei's. He had just been celebrating, but in the blink of an eye, he became regretful. Just now, he felt that competing with Wang Haomin was right, but now he hated Wang Haomin. This complex mood also showed on his face. Until he saw Gu Lao staring at him strangely, Zhang Wei reacted and smiled awkwardly. The usually calm Zhang Wei actually lost his composure when facing a piece of gambling stone material. Gu Lao's heart was also extremely surprised.
"Mr. Gu, Director Zhang, I feel it's not quite safe yet, how about we wipe it clean first?" Li Yang let out a long sigh and said to Mr. Gu and Director Zhang beside him. Zhang Wei's expression had returned to normal, but only Mr. Gu noticed, who didn't say anything, just looked at Zhang Wei and nodded along with him.
This time it was Li Yang himself who wiped the stone, and he forcibly restrained his desire to use his special ability to observe that small green mark again, focusing on wiping the half-block of wool in front of him.
Although polishing a stone is simple, it's also a technical task. This was actually Li Yang's first time polishing a stone, and if he wasn't careful, he might accidentally polish away the jade inside, resulting in unnecessary losses.
Fortunately, Li Yang had a special ability from his previous careful observation, so this point didn't need to be worried about, he knew when to stop.
The wiped window surface is getting bigger and bigger, the green inside is also more and more obvious, the mood of several people around is also more and more tense. As the beautiful figure of the jadeite inside is slowly revealed, the value of this piece of wool fabric is soaring.
"Director Zhang, can you help me take out all the jade from inside?"
All four sides were wiped out by Li Yang, and from now on, it can almost be confirmed that this is a big rise material. At this time, if you step on it again, it will definitely be a rare bad luck in a hundred years.
Zhang Wei hastily nodded and took over Li Yang's position, slowly wiping the wool fabric. Li Yang sat on a chair by the wall, resting, still thinking about how to get his hands on that top-grade glass jade.
Simmer Lin turned his head to take a look at Li Yang, and seeing Li Yang resting with his eyes closed, he couldn't help but feel a little admiration. The value of this half-piece of wool had already risen to 70 or 80 million, yet Li Yang was still able to sit there calmly. If Li Yang wasn't from a big family, then he must be a golden scale that hadn't jumped out of the pond yet.
The golden unicorn is not a creature of the pond; when it encounters wind and clouds, it transforms into a dragon.
This Li Yang is just an employee of a jewelry company, absolutely not someone from a big family. At this time, the young man has not yet taken off, and it's definitely not a bad idea to build a good relationship with him now. No one knows what his future development will be like.
Sim Lin nodded secretly and began to think about how to establish a good relationship with Li Yang, which could also be considered as investing in potential stocks.
"Li Yang! Li Yang!"
Li Yang hadn't thought of a reason to buy the stepping stone yet, when Zhang Wei suddenly shouted out loud on his side. Zhang Wei directly called out Li Yang's name, enough to show how excited he was at the moment.
"Old pit ice seed, Huang Yang green, Li Yang, you really are auspicious, another big surge!"
Zhang Wei walked up to Li Yang with a piece of crystal-clear jade material in his hands, looking at him with complex eyes. The envy and jealousy in the eyes of several other people were not concealed at all, and they indeed felt that way at this moment.
"Yes, Mr. Li this time is in our Jade Stone Association cut a big rise, and also provided by President Zhang's wool, this time our Mingyang Jade Stone Association finally really rose to the occasion!"
Mr. Gu sighed loudly, previously he had only heard that Li Yang had a record of three wins and two big gains, but he didn't have any special feelings about it. But after truly experiencing all this, it was different, even Mr. Gu, an old man like him, began to envy Li Yang's good luck.
"I must thank you all, actually my luck wasn't very good before, recently I almost got killed by a meteorite, but after being hit by the meteorite, my luck improved a bit, this is what they call 'great calamity brings great fortune'!"
Li Yang smiled, thinking of a long-prepared excuse. Good luck also needs a reason, and Li Yang couldn't help but smile wryly. There will be many more such good fortunes in the future, let's take it slow, anyway no one would suspect that Li Yang can really see through jade stones, this is even less believable than a legend to ordinary people.
"It can't be that way either. Last time many people were injured by the meteorite, I didn't hear any of them having such good luck like Li Lao Di!"
Wang Haomin nodded, and the meteorite fell in Mingyang. It was one of the big things that happened to Mingyang recently, and everyone knew about it.
"Maybe they haven't shown up yet, or maybe they've already had good luck, we just don't know!"
Guo Lao also nodded in agreement, elderly people generally believe in the saying of good luck, and since he was also a gambler, Guo Lao highly agreed with Li Yang's statement.
