Chapter 274: Top-quality Jade

At this time, Zhang Qian walked to Jun Luoyun and bowed: "I am Zhang Qian, and I greet Princess Luoyun."

Jun Luoyun glanced at him and frowned slightly: "Zhang Qian? This princess has never heard of him."

"I heard my sister mention the princess."

"Your sister?"

"My sister is Zhang Ruru."

Zhang Ruru?

That idiot?

Jun Luoyun rolled his eyes at him and snorted coldly: "You two are indeed brother and sister."

Zhang Qian didn't understand what Jun Luoyun meant for a moment, and thought she was praising him. He couldn't help but smile, thinking he was very handsome. He didn't know that this smile made him look even more stupid.

"Thank you for the compliment, my lord."

Praise?

When did I praise him?

Jun Luoyun snorted disdainfully. It seemed that he was even more stupid than that stupid woman Zhang Ruru.

At this moment, the huge stone suddenly split into two halves, a cloud of smoke dissipated, and everyone's eyes fell on the stone.

The master who was cutting the stone scooped out a bucket of clean water and poured it on the stone. He couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

This, this is actually!

He looked at the cut jadeite in front of him and murmured, "Imperial green! Imperial green!"

what?

Everyone's eyes fell on the stone and they all gasped.

I saw a green cut surface appear before my eyes.

Under the thin skin is all green jade.

For a long while, there was complete silence in Wanshizhai, and everyone's eyes were fixed on the jadeite.

At this moment, someone exclaimed: "A huge increase! A huge increase!"

"Oh my god! Am I dreaming? I can see such a huge increase in my lifetime!"

"Imperial Green! How long has it been since Wanshizhai produced Imperial Green?"

Zhang Qian was completely dumbfounded at this point, his eyes fixed on the jade and unable to move away for even a second.

Jun Luoyun also looked at it in shock. Imperial Green?

She naturally knew what the imperial green jadeite meant.

A few years ago, the emperor of the Western Regions presented the queen with a set of imperial green jade head-pieces on her birthday. She had seen it with her own eyes and it was extremely exquisite. She loved it very much. She sent people to look for it for a long time but to no avail, and finally had to give up.

Now that untouchable had opened the Imperial Green Jadeite, how could she accept it?

At this moment, Shang Ruoyi stepped forward and said to the stone cutter: "Here, make another cut."

"Oh! Okay! I'll start now." After he finished speaking, he cut again.

Now, no one dared to whisper anymore. They all looked at the stone intently, afraid of missing any wonderful thing.

After a while, the big stone broke into two halves. When their eyes fell on the cut surface, they were stunned again.

I saw that behind the originally imperial green jadeite, there was a bowl-sized cut surface. The surface was no longer green, but an extremely gorgeous purple.

"This is, this is the ultimate imperial purple!"

"Oh my God! There is another color of jade in this stone!"

“Still such a beautiful purple!”

"I'm rich, I'm really rich!"

"I have achieved perfection in my lifetime. Even if I die today, I will have no regrets."

At this time, an old man came over and bowed to Shang Ruoyi: "Young Master, I wonder if you are going to sell this jadeite?"

Before Shang Ruoyi could answer, the old man said, "I am willing to pay one hundred thousand taels for these two pieces of jade."

One hundred thousand taels!

Everyone was shocked when they heard this.

As soon as he finished speaking, another person said, "Old Whitehead, you are being a little unfair. This young master's jadeite can obviously be sold for more silver. In my opinion, it should be at least 120,000 taels."

"I'll pay 130,000 taels!"

"One hundred and fifty thousand taels!"

"One hundred and sixty thousand taels!"

There was an endless stream of bidding sounds all around, and Shang Ruoyi couldn't help but be a little surprised. She didn't expect that these two stones could be sold at such a high price.

She didn't know that jadeite was highly sought after by royal nobles in both Tianshun and Beiling. A piece of fine jade was not much cheaper than oriental pearls, and its price would be even higher after being made into a headpiece.

At this moment, a figure suddenly rushed towards the jade, shouting as he ran: "This is mine! It belongs to me!"

Zhang Qianru was like a madman, his eyes were red with anger: "Give it back to me! This is mine!"

Just when he was only one step away from the raw stone, Ah Cheng appeared in front of the raw stone, stretched out his foot, and kicked Zhang Qian hard in the abdomen. Zhang Qian was an uneducated second-generation rich man who had no martial arts skills at all. How could he withstand such a kick?

His figure flew backwards like beads with a broken string, leaving a long trail on the ground.

"How dare you covet my young master's things? You're courting death." Ah Cheng said angrily.

"You, you are so brave! How dare you kick me!" Zhang Qian barely stood up with the help of the servants, with traces of blood on his lips.

Shang Ruoyi glanced at him and said, "What are you doing in public? Are you robbing me?"

"Bullshit! That's obviously mine!" His face flushed, and he stiffened his neck and shouted, "I bought it with seven thousand taels of silver."

"That's right, you spent seven thousand taels of silver to buy it, but sold it to me for seven hundred taels, right?" Shang Ruoyi sneered, "Everyone witnessed it. Why, seeing the stone's value rise, you are unwilling to accept it?"

How could he be willing to do so?

That’s hundreds of thousands of taels of silver!

Just giving away such huge sums of money like this is no different from begging with a golden bowl in hand.

"I will return the seven hundred taels to you. Give me back my stone!" Zhang Qian looked at her and said coldly, "Did you do this on purpose? You must have known that there was jade in the stone, so you bought these two pieces of waste."

"Did Master Zhang lose his memory? I told you that this was my first time gambling on stones, and I said during the process that I didn't plan to buy any more. But didn't Master Zhang also say that we can't mess up the rules of gambling on stones? I've been following the rules you said, so how could I say that I did it on purpose?"

Shaoyao also said, "That's right. My master tried to evade the offer in every possible way. It was Master Zhang who forced us to pay. That's why my master had to pay 700 taels of silver. Everyone witnessed it. Do you still want to deny it?"

"That's right. I never expected that Mr. Zhang, who usually seems to be very generous, is actually such a person who can't stand losing."

"The material that I sold at a low price has increased greatly in the hands of others. Anyone would feel very uncomfortable, but I have never seen anyone asking for it back like Master Zhang did."

"You have to be more careful in the future. You must never sell raw stones to Mr. Zhang, let alone buy his stones. Otherwise, if the price drops, you will have to return it. If the price of others goes up, you will have to return it again."

After the words were spoken, everyone burst into laughter again.

Zhang Qian stood there, his face as black as the bottom of a pot, his fists clenched, staring at Shang Ruoyi fiercely.

Jun Luoyun's face was also extremely ugly. Who could have thought that a piece of waste material could produce such a stunning jade?

"Would you like to sell these two jades?"
