Chapter 1040: Buy the Black Stone!

Translator: Lonelytree

Seeing that Lin Yuelan and the others had already paid and taken the black stone, someone immediately rolled his eyes and said, ” There’s someone here who can cut the stone. Miss, why don’t you cut it now so that you don’t have to bring it back here again! ‘

Lin Yuelan looked at these people. All of them had expressions of watching a show. There was   sympathy, but there was also joy.

Lin Yuelan didn’t say anything for the time being. She just looked at the stall owner and hooked her finger at him. It was obvious that she wanted him to come over.

The stall owner leaned over in confusion.

After Lin Yuelan whispered a few words into his ear, the stall owner immediately shook his head and said, ” No, absolutely not! ”

Lin Yuelan chuckled and said, ” Boss, there won’t be another chance. Are you sure? ”

When the stall owner heard this, he immediately looked at the stones on the stall with some hesitation.

If he sold all these stones, he would have to give 70% to this girl. No matter what, he was very unwilling.

However, this lady said…

The stall owner wasn’t sure. In the end, he gritted his teeth and confirmed, ” If that’s the case, I agree! ‘

Anyway, it was a gamble. If he lost, he had nothing to lose. If he won, he might even earn a lot.

“Alright, we’ll do as you say!” The stall owner said again.

Lin Yuelan smiled and said, ” Boss is indeed a smart person! ‘

Other than Jiang Zhennan, who had a deep understanding of their conversation, the rest of the people present were ordinary people. They had no idea what they were talking about.

Jiang Zhennan weighed the stone in his hand. Then, he looked at Lin Yuelan with a gentle expression of indulgence.

Li Fazhi didn’t know what was going on and looked at Lin Yuelan with a puzzled expression.

Lin Yuelan didn’t explain.

She only raised her eyebrows at the person who asked her if she wanted to cut the stone. ” Alright! ”

As he spoke, he gestured for Jiang Zhennan to carry the stone over.

There was a stone-cutting stall two or three seats away from this stall owner.

Of course, this stone-cutting stall was not as advanced as the modern one. After drawing the boundary, they would cut the stone directly. When necessary, they would manually sand the stone.

The stone-cutting stall here mainly used manpower. After all, the stone was hard and not easy to cut. Moreover, they had to be especially careful not to damage the things inside. Otherwise, if they encountered a good jade stone that was destroyed and the customer asked for compensation, they would not be able to pay even if they went bankrupt.

Of course, the risk of dissecting the stone was high, so the benefits were naturally great.

If a piece of jade were cut out on the spot, there would usually be a big red pacKe1. 11 ne met a generous customer, me rewara would De very consiaerame.

Therefore, this industry was still very attractive.

The stall Lin Yuelan patronized was owned by two men and one woman. They looked like a family of three.

The older man took the stone and asked seriously, ” Do you want to draw lines on this stone? ”

Drawing lines could be skipped to direct sanding.

Sanding stones was a slow job and took a long time. Of course, the money was also high.

Because they were afraid of meeting customers who refused to pay, the cutters and sanders would demand half the salary before starting the work. The other half would be paid after the work was done.

Lin Yuelan nodded.

The elder took the paint from their stall and started drawing lines.

After drawing the line, the old man asked seriously, ” Have you confirmed it? If there is a mistake in drawing the line and the stone is damaged midway, we will not be responsible!”

It was the rule of every profession to explain things clearly before doing anything.

Lin Yuelan nodded and said, “The line has been drawn. Just follow the lines and cut within a thickness of five centimeters!”

This stone was about fifteen centimeters in size. If the elder was to cut off five centimeters according to the lines, then there would only be a little left. It should not be the size of a baby’s fist, right?

Was there really jade inside?

Almost no one believed it.

If a random stone on the street could produce jade, would anyone still buy the raw stones in these shops?

However, seeing Lin Yuelan’s serious attitude, some people were suspicious.

Of course, stone gambling relied a lot on age and experience.

Looking at this group of people, they were all very young. Moreover, they appeared in South Cloud City as strangers. It was impossible for them to have such an experience.

Therefore, this girl was probably just fooling around!

In fact, she was also gambling!

The old man nodded. Then, he took the black stone and carefully placed it on the stone table.

After fixing it and checking that there were no mistakes, he and a young and strong man picked up the weapons beside them. They were a very thick and sharp knife and a big hammer.

The father and son cooperated very well. When they cut the stone, they were very cautious and careful.

One was holding a steady knife, while the other was holding a hammer.

Without a certain amount of arm strength and technique, it was really difficult to do.

When the woman beside them saw the father and son sweating, she immediately went forward to wipe them. From time to time, she would add a few drops of water to the opened stone cracks to reduce friction. After about fifteen minutes, the first side was already solved.

Then, the old man fixed the other side of the fixing table.

After about an hour and a half, all the sides were sliced down.

The only thing left was to sand down the stone.

The onlookers were also very patient. In an hour and a half, the whole process of cutting the stone was done.

When they saw that the stone had already been cut open, but they could not see anything inside at all, most of them were very disappointed. Some even gloated.

The remaining stone that was the size of an adult woman’s fist really had jade?

No one believed it!

Li Fazhi was also suspicious. However, when he saw everyone’s mocking and disdainful eyes, he was afraid that Lin Yuelan would be sad. He immediately comforted her in a low voice, ” Sister Lin, don’t be sad if you don’t find jade in this stone. I have a lot of carefully selected raw stones in my shop. If you like them, you can cut them all. All the jadeites are yours.”

Lin Yuelan,

Why did everyone think that there was no jade?

One had to know that the remaining fist-sized stone not only contained jade but also …

Lin Yuelan smiled and said, ” Thank you, Big Brother Li! However, let’s finish the rest first!”

Then, she said to the old man, “Elder, please clean the stone! ”

The old man nodded, took the stone, and looked at it. Then, he directly handed it to the woman.

He started smoking his pipe.

The old woman took the stone, picked up the tools beside her, and began to wipe and sand it skillfully. After about half an incense’s time.

“Ah, there’s green!”
