Chapter 379 - Chapter 379: Chapter 379 Jade Business (2/2)
Having no choice, he settled for a small stool to sit on.
The meeting here was full of young people dreaming of wealth, eagerly watching the stones in their hands while waiting in line, hoping to cut open some rare and precious gems.
But in this business, one cut could mean poverty and another riches, with no eternal victors, and some people could accidentally end up losing everything.
Chen Yu just watched all this indifferently while letting the system scan the entire jade industry’s three-dimensional schematic into his brain.
Hu Sanjiang was at this moment on the third floor in the VIP hall, cutting a raw stone, surrounded by several wealthy merchants, seemingly discussing jade trade deals.
After Chen Yu had identified his target, he prepared to head upstairs, but as he approached the staircase, he was stopped by two security guards.
“Sorry, sir, our establishment is members-only, and you need to have a ten-year membership to go to the second floor.”
Chen Yu frowned immediately, as places like this normally operated with a VIP system.
Yet, he hadn’t expected that just to access the second floor would require a ten-year membership; going to the third floor would likely need an even longer membership, wouldn’t it?
Just as he was about to force his way up the stairs, the crowd suddenly became agitated.
“The big event is about to start, let’s rush over to watch the excitement.”
“It’s said that anyone who can cut open five pieces of jadeite in a row can go directly to the VIP hall on the third floor.”
“Forget about it, ever since that event started, nobody has been able to do it. To cut open five in a row is practically a task for immortals.”
…
A large crowd had gathered around the podium, peering inside, and some people even paid money and put down their names, wanting to take a gamble.
If you could get to the third floor, you would receive a jade stone as a gift.
It was said that the jade stone was worth more than a million.
Just for that, it was worth giving it a shot.
Furthermore, the registration fee wasn’t high, just thirty thousand yuan.
Chen Yu suddenly became interested; he was here to settle accounts with Hu Sanjiang, not to become a distinguished guest of this place, so there was no need to get a membership.
He directly took out thirty thousand yuan, squeezed into the crowd, and bought a qualification certificate from one of the staff members.
Previously during tournaments, no one could succeed, which deterred many people.
Even so, nearly a hundred people signed up for the competition.
It must be said that this jade business’s money-making scheme was quite something; with a hundred people each paying thirty thousand, that was an income of three million.
Even if someone actually won, they wouldn’t be at a loss.
A large pile of raw stones was placed on the podium, and the people almost stampeded to pick their stones.
For them, it was a path to riches and skyrocketing success.
It didn’t take long for all the stones on the podium to be snatched up.
Chen Yu, however, acted unhurriedly, casually picking up five stones.
Before others could react, he had already taken over a simple stone-cutting machine and started sawing.
“My god, this guy has cut one open!”
No one knew who shouted, but all eyes swiftly focused on Chen Yu.
