Pretending to be jealous in the arms of Dali Temple

Chapter 186
After spending an hour in Yicuifang, Wanyan drank half a pot of tea.

Seeing the people downstairs clamoring about Kaiyuan Stone, it was a completely different scene than usual.

Rubbing her swollen stomach, Wan Yan stood up, "My lord, let's go back."

Su Jizhi had been half leaning against the railing, staring at the guests at different tables without speaking, Wan Yan shook his arm, looking bored, Su Jizhi just smiled, "Would you like to try it? Ten taels of silver for one. "

Wan Yan's heart itch, "Adults want to play too?"

"Try it, ten taels of silver, get out the rough stone, you can make a pendant and wear it for fun?"

Wan Yan smiled.

"It turns out that girls like this kind of thing. Let's go. Although we don't lack these ten taels of silver, the feeling of getting out of emeralds is enough for you to be happy for a whole year."

Think about it.

Su Jizhi took Wan Yan's hand, and the two of them rushed downstairs, and in an instant they came to table No. [-] that Su Jizhi was looking forward to.

At this time, eight people were surrounded.

Two more people came, and the atmosphere around the table became even more heated.

Seeing Su Jizhi joining, an elderly man with a beard asked the waiter uneasily, "Hey, there is one more person now, what do we pay for what we pay?"

The clerk asked Su Jizhi, "How does this guest officer want to buy?"

Wan Yan had already put ten taels of silver into Su Jizhi's hands, and he said, "Ten taels, I'll buy this corner."

The old man looked at Su Jizhi, "You only want this side?"

Su Jizhi nodded affirmatively, "On this point, no emeralds can be opened. I keep the ten taels of silver. If there is anything, it will be mine from this place onwards."

Su Jizhi made a knife with his hands and measured it along the grain of the stone.

The old man thought for a while, seeing that Su Jizhi was calm and determined, he asked tentatively, "Young man, are you sure about this stone?"

"Whatever, it's only ten taels of silver, buy luck." This sentence made the old man ponder, his eyes fixed on the palm-sized stone again, and he was silent in thought.

Many people nearby were impatient and lacked the courage to make a move, but kept encouraging the old man to place bets. Everyone wanted to see if there was anything in this rough stone.

"How about it, old man? I have to open it. Starting from this place, ten taels of silver. After the stone is opened, if there is emerald, the price will not be the same later."

"How much?"

"From this place, Yicuifang can accept ten taels of silver. Once the stone is cut, the price will start at a hundred taels later."

The crowd discussed in low voices, and the old man looked uneasy.

"now what?"

"Now it is divided into two. The rough stone opened by the guest official is small, ten taels, and the remaining big ones. If there is emerald, the price is also expensive, 100 taels."

The old man is in a dilemma.

Without waiting for everyone to think about it, the guy yelled loudly, "Is there anyone else? Here are ten taels of knives. If you hit the mark, the remaining treasures will start at 500 taels."

The crowd was in an uproar.

Wan Yan stared at the black stone, which seemed to be covered with moss, and her heart sank to the bottom of the valley, could there be emeralds here?
Wan Yan felt sorry for Yin Zi, it would be luck if the jade was produced.

But she trusts him inexplicably for what the adult decides.

Glancing at the lord secretly, the corner of his mouth was cold, his expression was the same as before.

The old man looked at Su Jizhi, and muttered again, "Is there any? Who can tell?" He kept looking at Su Jizhi, trying to find the answer from his face.

Got nothing.

Before the man raised his knife, he asked again, "Is there anyone else?" He didn't look at the old man. Based on his experience, the old man would not bet.

Sure enough, when the man raised the knife, the scene was quiet, and no one spoke to more than a dozen people.

More than a dozen pairs of eyes stared at the stone, not daring to breathe.

Wan Yan's heart reached her throat, her palms were sweating, and she tightly clenched Su Jizhi's sleeves.

The lord's side face was stern, Wan Yan suddenly saw a smile on the corner of his mouth.

It turns out that the adults are sure?
Before Wan Yan could react, the crowd cheered.

Wan Yan saw that the dark stone was cut from the place where the adult bought it, and the two stone sections emitted a bright dark green light.

"My lord!" Wan Yan suppressed her voice excitedly, shaking Su Jizhi's arm happily.

With a smile on his face, the lord stretched out his hand to take the rough jadeite from the buddy.

Su Jizhi pulled Wan Yan out of the crowd, the guy was instantly surrounded by the crowd, and no one paid any attention to the two of them.

The heat has been ignited, and Wan Yan heard that the surgical price of the rough stone has been raised to 800 taels.

Walking to the counter in the middle of the hall, the shopkeeper congratulated Su Jizhi with a smile, "Excuse me, what would you like to order?"

Su Jizhi glanced at Wan Yan, and said with a smile, "I don't know what color this jadeite is, can you give this girl a pendant or hairpin?"

The shopkeeper looked at the rough stone with only one section from left to right, and patiently explained, "If the whole body of a rough stone of this size is full of emeralds, it will be no problem to make a hairpin. I am afraid that there will not be many emeralds, but the pendant should be fine. The guest officer will go to the back hall later. Watch our guys polish it with your own eyes, and then decide."

Su Jizhi understood, "That is to say, it's hard to say whether the jadeite is in this rough stone or in the rest of the rough stone?"

The shopkeeper nodded with a smile.

"I don't care about polishing the rough stone. I can trust the shopkeeper, so I just use the hairpin to polish it. If we can't beat it, we will replace it with a pendant."

The shopkeeper thanked Su Jizhi for his trust, and was about to issue a certificate when the woman in red slowly walked in from the back hall.

Wan Yan looked at her inadvertently, and the two looked at each other for a moment.

The woman in red smiled first, "The girl has an outstanding appearance, and people can't take their eyes off her."

Wan Yan lowered her eyes, "I don't know how to call the girl, but I'm really ashamed when you say that."

The shopkeeper looked at the woman in red, and introduced softly, "This is Miss Yang Zhen, who has been in the rough stone business, not to mention anything else, half of the rough stones in our capital are from her hands."

Wan Yan's eyes opened slightly, the lord is really powerful, just now the lord guessed that the biggest stone today was transported to the capital by the woman in red.

Looking up and down Yang Zhen, Wan Yan found that she was much more mature than she looked upstairs, with slender eyes and taller than her, and although her voice was soft, her tone was unquestionable.

Under the candlelight, the red dress made her face whiter and her figure thinner.

"The shopkeeper is serious." Yang Zhen said, reaching out to take the stone that Su Jizhi just opened, looked around for a moment, and then handed it to the shopkeeper, "Do as the customer said, there is no problem with this stone as a hairpin."

Yang Zhen looked at Su Jizhi, and then turned to Wan Yan, "The guest is very discerning, this stone and emerald are all there."

Fortunately for Wan Yan, "Miss Yang is the most capable, we are lucky, and Miss Yang is the great one."

Yang Zhen accepted the compliment with a smile, and looked at the bustling hall, "Aren't you two going to play for a while? It's [-]:[-] pm, and there is still a while before the curfew."

Su Jizhi glanced at Wan Yan, Wan Yan shook her head, and Yang Zhen's smile deepened, "If there is a chance in the future, you are welcome to come and play again."

When she walked out of Yicuifang, Wan Yan looked back at the counter, and she saw Yang Zhen standing next to the shopkeeper, holding a few rough stones in his hand and talking about something.

Under the bright candlelight of Yicuifang, the red clothes are eye-catching and somewhat out of place.
