C74 1 million bounty (1/2)
Our sad Young Master Liu finally welcomed the most important rise in his life after everything went awry. One must know, the value of the meat inside the ore was no longer important to Liu Mingchuan anymore. Right now, the most important thing for Liu Mingchuan was to increase the price.
”I never thought that Liu Family brat would really have such luck this time, he actually let his blind cat meet a dead end!”
”Hehe, it's just a medium sized ore. Even if I cut it out, it wouldn't be too oily!”
These old foxes who had seen too many gambling stones to lose their composure over such a small gain. muttered as he pulled Lao Yang along: ”Lao Yang, Lao Yang, where are the firecrackers. Where are the firecrackers?
Lao Yang had an awkward expression as he looked at Liu Mingchuan strangely. He thought to himself: Isn't it just a small rise, is there a need to be so excited? You even want to use firecrackers to celebrate?
Lao Yang did not say anything, but this was already considered polite, once the elder who cut the stone opened his mouth, he said without a trace of politeness: ”Little Liu, don't be happy too early, it's not certain if it will increase or not, there is meat inside, but the exact amount and quality of the meat, will be known after it is completely removed.”
The old man's words were like a bucket of cold water being poured on Liu Mingchuan's head. Liu Mingchuan only felt a burst of coolness, and the excitement from just now instantly disappeared, but he only muttered to himself: ”Hmph, this time I will definitely increase greatly, you guys definitely won't be able to eat grapes!”
Even though he said that, Liu Mingchuan's heart was still thumping hard. His eyes were staring straight at the ore on the Stonecutting Machine.
The old man's movements became slower and more cautious. As it continued to grind on, the meat inside the ore gradually surfaced, revealing the tip of the iceberg.
After continuously washing and wiping with cold water, the old man finally revealed a trace of a smile. Seeing the old man's smile, Lao Yang pursed his lips and thought to himself: Could it be that Liu Mingchuan was really lucky to cut out a piece of primeval stone that swelled up? Otherwise, Zhang Laogui would not let out such a smile.
”Little brat Liu, your luck is quite good this time. To think that you would be struck by a piece of Ice Species's jade!” The old man laughed and said, but his expression was still calm, as if the Ice Species jade could not cause ripples in his heart.
Liu Mingchuan jumped up once again: ”Ice Species, this young master actually cut into the Ice Species, great, great, hmph, let's see who dares to look down on this young master in the future, say that this young master does not know how to bet stones!”
Just as Liu Mingchuan was feeling complacent, Liu Mingmei raised his leg and kicked him ruthlessly in the butt: ”You unlucky bastard, isn't that just a piece of Ice Species jade? Look at how pleased you are with yourself!”
Liu Mingchuan immediately covered his injured butt. Facing his old sister, who was inclined to violence, he could only whimper in grievance and pout in a pitiful manner.
Ice Species could be considered quite a good breed among jadeite. The mogul s of the Jadestone Realm looked at each other. However, because Liu Mingmei was present, no one dared to negotiate with him. After all, her family owned a jewelry company, and some of the goods were hoarded by him. She definitely would not sell a piece of the Ice Species jade.
Not long after, Old Zhang took out a piece of emerald from Liu Mingchuan's ore. However, this piece of meat was not very big, it was only the size of a fist, but it was filled with water.
”Heh, not bad. It's just that its size is a little small! ”I'll make do with it!” The old man took the piece of Ice Species jade and sized it up, then sighed to himself.
Lao Yang also came forward at this time, with a smile on his face, he took the fist-sized jade from the old man and gave it to Liu Mingchuan: ”Young Master Liu, congratulations, congratulations! I never thought that the first time Young Master Liu sliced meat off a Ice Species, it would come out. Although it was small in size, it was still worth a lot.
When he received the fist-sized piece of Ice Species Emerald, Liu Mingchuan was already blooming with laughter. How could he still hear Lao Yang's flattery?
However, when Liu Mingmei saw this, her eyes twitched. She snappily said to Lao Yang: ”Yang Tianming, don't give my little brother the Bewitching Soup. This piece of Ice Species jade is only worth a million or so, compared to the 10 million or so he lost to you, it is nothing! ”
Lao Yang laughed awkwardly, but he felt wronged in his heart: He was the one who insisted on gambling, and I didn't force him to play. How could I blame this on me?
Just as Liu Mingchuan was still celebrating, the Litholysis Field welcomed another group of people. There was a total of a dozen or so people pulling a small carriage, and walking into the Litholysis Field with huge gasps.
Ye Qian curled his lips and laughed: ”Looks like my goods have arrived!”
The ones pulling the ores into the Litholysis Field were none other than Qing Yuan's porters. The moment they stepped into the Litholysis Field, all of them collapsed onto the ground, crying out for their mother and father's complaints.
The people in Litholysis Field were all experienced gamblers, and upon seeing this scene, everyone began to doubt in their hearts.
”Be good, there are more than a dozen people here. This cart of ores must have at least ten large ones, right?”
”Lao Yang, why did you drag so many ores over for?”
”I see, the old brat Lao Yang wants to play a few games when he sees other people gambling with him. Lao Yang, you must be pretending to be a public servant! ”
