The First Interstellar Energy Gambler

He Kun chose to grind the stone with the grinding wheel where the hairy needles and pine flowers appeared. When the grinding wheel stopped, everyone stared at the window nervously. Lin Luo helped to sprinkle water on the window, and the next moment, a touch of turquoise green came into view.

“Excellent quality ice jade?!”

“It’s up! It’s up! It’s a big increase!”

Everyone in the Kipola branch cheered suddenly, as long as it is not just a superficial color, this piece of jadeite has definitely risen in value!

He Kun reluctantly restrained his inner excitement, switched the sanding wheel to the chrome knife, and slowly began to cut the stone along the edge of the window that was ground out.

With a ‘bzzt’, the first cut was completed.

Under the fervent sight of everyone, He Kun slowly washed away the dust on the cut surface with water, and then clearly revealed the outline of the jade inside. Because this piece of jadeite itself is not big, the jade is only the size of an adult man’s palm. But this is an excellent quality ice jade! It contains a lot of energy and its value will be quite high.

In the end, this one-and-a-half-kilogram jade was completely revealed, and it was estimated by the light brain to be worth 700,000. He Kun won another four points for their branch!

“Great!” Wang Xun’s expression finally relaxed a little, and they finally no longer had negative scores. Their ranking jumped up a bit, reaching the midstream position.

The other team members’ spirits also were not so tight, and they all gathered around to praise He Kun.

“No, no, I was just lucky. When I bought this piece of jadeite, I didn’t know much about it. It was Lin Luo who discovered the hairy needles and pine flowers, so I dared to try it.” He Kun waved his hand again and again, unwilling to take all the credit himself.

“Xiao Lin is very good!” Wang Xun smiled and nodded.

“Did Xiao Lin also choose a piece of jadeite?” Old Liu noticed the small piece of jadeite that Lin Luo was holding in his hand.

“Ah, yes.”

“May I take a look at it?”

“Certainly.”

The piece he chose was a piece of black sand jadeite. Because the color of the skin is so dark, it was difficult to judge the internal jade quality based on the quality of the matrix. Also, because of its small size it did not seem to be worth a gamble.

“How much did you buy this jadeite for?” Wang Xun asked.

“50,000 credits.” Lin Luo answered honestly.

Wang Xun thought about it for a long while, “May as well let Xiao Lin try.”

For 50,000 credits, even if the gamble is a loss, at most one point will be deducted, but if the gambling goes up it could be a big increase!

Wang Xun was very impressed with Lin Luo’s good luck and solid basic knowledge, so he decided to let Lin Luo give it a try.

Now that the president had spoken, the other members would naturally not object, but there were still one or two people showing a look of suspicion in their eyes.

Lin Luo did not refuse, and directly put his jadeite on the stone cutting machine.

Because of its small size, Lin Luo directly chose to grind the stone.

“Hahahaha! It has gone up!” Just as Lin Luo was grinding the stone, there was a burst of excited cheers from a place not far away from them.

Lin Luo subconsciously glanced in that direction and found that it was the man who had spent 850,000 credits to buy the lime husk. He cut out the green with a single cut, which was great momentum.

But Lin Luo knew that the jade inside that piece of jadeite was actually not big, and that man might be disappointed in the end.

He continued to concentrate on polishing the stone, and Xing Mo stepped up to help. The two cooperated quite tacitly. When the grinding wheel stopped, Xing Mo immediately poured water on the window surface, so that everyone could clearly see the performance of the window.

However, everyone showed a shocked look after seeing the window. The window that was opened revealed a gleam of crystal blue.

However Lin Luo was already prepared and set up the grinding wheel to continue to grind the stone.

Soon, the outline of this jade appeared in front of everyone.

“Ice type…Floating blue flower [2]…” Wang Xun murmured.

“A big increase! This is a real big increase! The younger generation is terrible, the younger generation is terrible!” Old Liu sighed.

Looking at the size of the floating blue flower ice jade, it should be at least about a kilogram. According to the market price, it should be around 600,000 to 700,000 credits. Compared to the cost price of the jadeite it is a huge increase in value, and it can bring their club at least ten points or more at once.

He Kun glanced at the leader board. If Lin Luo’s points are added, there is absolutely no problem for them to enter the top three today. If they are lucky, they may win the championship!

For a while, the members of the Kipola branch were all excited.

Sure enough, after Lin Luo completely finished sanding the jade, the light brain gave an estimated value of 650,000 credits, and he won a full 12 points for the Kipola branch! Their ranking rose straight to second!

The Tomadan branch, ranked first, was only two points away from them.

Wang Xun was actually very satisfied with the results of the first day of the friendly match.

“While there is still time, everyone will go out and look for good jadeite, try to keep our advantage, if we can finish in the top three tonight I will treat everyone to a big meal!”

“Okay!” Everyone responded happily, and when they were about to walk outside, the ranking of points displayed on the light brain suddenly changed.

They went from second to first, and the original number one was deducted four points…

Everyone unanimously looked in the direction of the Tomadan branch. Lin Luo unsurprisingly found that it was the branch that the man from earlier was in. He revealed a 2 kilogram apple green glutinous jade with an estimated value of 650,000. Therefore, Four points were deducted and the original first position was handed over to the Kulta branch.

The author has something to say:

===========Little Theater===========

[Little Theater on Moshang]

Lin Xiaoluo: Wang Xiansen, can I bring my family to the Seven Stars Gathering?

Wang Xun: Yes, but the cost…

Lin Xiaoluo: It doesn’t matter, he said he was so poor that he had only money left.

Xing Xiaomo is full of confidence: Yes! I have money! I am no longer the money slave!

Lin Xiaoluo: Um… the performance doesn’t seem to be very good.

Xing Xiaomo: Poor performance → no value → no money to earn → all-inclusive party expenses → loss! !

[1] “Floating” because the flowers of color float in the clear jade, as opposed to more opaque jades. Should look like this:
