Chapter 13 (2/2)

That Cantonese boss thinks, “Alas, how can this happen? A piece of jade worth of six million yuan comes out from a five-hundred-yuan raw stone.”

And Liu Zheng thinks, “Baojia’s friend is kind of interesting.”

While everyone is thinking of their own ideas, Boss Zhang cuts the stone from where Lin Luoran told him to.

“d.a.m.n it… There is something green again!” That Cantonese boss cries out loud with astonishment in Cantonese. He even forgets to speak in mandarin, but he p.r.o.nounces the word “green” in a very correct way.

“How about five hundred thousand yuan, Miss?” He comes back to reality and offers a price.

Lin Luoran smiles at Baojia, “Let’s cut the green part all out?”

Baojia is still in shock and doesn’t realize that it is her stone. She nods again and again.

The facial expressions on Boss Zhang’s face are very complicated. On the one hand, he is happy, because there is jade being cut out in the stones in his yard. On the other hand, he is regretful, because he sold such great stones for only five hundred yuan.

Staring at all of these, Li Anping can’t believe that the woman who has lived with him for years suddenly has the skill of “turning stone into jade”? Lin Luoran, you liar! All of the astonishment in his heart finally changes into hatred.

Elly doesn’t bother watching this anymore, for she feels more and more ashamed as she stays there. She holds Li Anping’s arm and leaves together without even looking back.

Baojia’s jade material is also cut out by Boss Zhang. Not as big as Lin’s, it is orange-sized, and kind of round.

That Cantonese boss offers a price rising to “1.8 million yuan”. Both Baojia and Lin Luoran want to sell it to him. However, Liu Zheng finally offers a price of two hundred thousand yuan more while pus.h.i.+ng his gla.s.ses. So they just keep the goodies within their fields and sells it to Liu Zheng.

However, this place is not the busiest part. Fatty Cui and others have rushed to the yard and scrambled for those “watermelon stones” that had been ignored for hundreds of years.

“Five hundred yuan for each piece, I will take them all.” Shaking the fat on his neck, Fatty Cui opens his arms like an eagle to protect those raw stones.

“Fatty Cui, don’t be so greedy. Six hundred yuan!”

The facial expressions of Boss Zhang change again and again and he stubs out the cigarette b.u.t.t.

“Bah, do you think that I’m a fool?”

Lin Luoran and Baojia smile at each other. This time, the value of Boss Zhang’s waste materials will rise doubly. No one can tell whether he will sell them.

Looking at the rest stone of hers, she felicitates that she doesn’t cut them all. Otherwise, these people might be crazy.

After some polite remarks, Lin Luoran and Baojia goes out of that gate of the stockyard with a handful of business cards. Now, people call her “the Lucky G.o.ddess” and leave her their addresses so that Lin Luoran can sell them good materials if she cuts out some in the future.

Lin Luoran puts the raw stone in the trunk. Holding that all the time is not the way. She needs to move it home first.

Liu Zheng is also going to go back. Seeing the two girls’ happy faces, he is a little worried, “Miss Lin wants to professionally gamble on stones?”

“No. Getting a real job is the right thing to do. Does Mr. Liu regret hiring me?” Lin Luoran smiles, and her words are half for telling truth and half for kidding. The immortal breath of the jade seems to be useful to the bead. Before she investigates it clearly, it is helpful to have a job in the jewelry industry.

If Lin Luoran starts to professionally gamble on stones, her six million yuan won’t make much difference for it cannot even buy a big stone. Liu Zheng was worried that Baojia’s friend might lose her mind. Now that she said something like that, of course he won’t have any opinion. So he offers his hand and says,

“Welcome the Lucky G.o.ddess to Liu’s Company in advance!”

Lin Luoran calmly and elegantly shakes hands with Liu Zheng. They are all from different directions, so they say goodbye to each other.

Baojia still seems to be cool that she doesn’t look like a girl who just earned two million yuan.

Lin Luoran thinks that Baojia has seen the bigger world. Not like her, her heart is still throbbing. But when the car moves into the city, Baojia suddenly hit the steering wheel on the half way:

“Who drives a j.a.panese car with two million in hand? I am going to change for a BMW tomorrow! Luoran, I love you. Hahaha!”

Lin Luoran can’t help laughing. That girl, just like before, is a tomboy, despite her capability and well-experienced appearance!
