Chapter 98: I gave you a chance, but you didn't cherish it

Xiao Zixing heard Lin Yang's words and laughed loudly.

"Really hilarious, do you think emeralds are as common as cabbage?"

"Baoshang, this idiot will say anything to show off in front of you!"

Huang Baoshang glared at Xiao Zixing.

"Shut up, if you can't stand it, just leave."

Seeing Huang Baoshang actually lose her temper at him, Xiao Zixing gritted his teeth.

He looked at Lin Yang, gave a cold snort, and said.

"I'd like to see how you manage to produce an emerald!"

The middle-aged man also looked at Lin Yang, with a hint of strangeness.

Any normal person, logically speaking, wouldn't say that.

After all, if emeralds could be easily produced, not so many people would go bankrupt.

He smiled at Lin Yang and said: "If you can produce an emerald from among three stones, I'll give you the blood jade!"

Lin Yang heard that, smiled, and said.

"That's really embarrassing!"

His gaze swept around the room, finally landing on a basketball-sized raw stone.

He looked at the smooth raw stone and placed his hand on it.

"Wait, I bought this stone!"

He walked over, pressed down on the stone, and looked at Lin Yang with an overbearing expression.

"I've bought this stone; I trust you have no objections."

Huang Baoshang saw this and angrily said.

"Xiao Zixing, what are you doing!"

Xiao Zixing smiled proudly and said to Huangbao.

"Baoshang, you know my family also does some research on raw stones like this."

"I think this stone is fine; I'll buy it, right?"

Huang Baoshang saw this, was about to erupt in anger, but Lin Yang stopped her.

"He wants it; just give it to him."

Xiao Zixing smiled proudly and said to the boss.

"Now, have someone cut this raw stone."

The boss also nodded, made a call, and someone came.

Several people lifted the raw stone to the cutting table and cut it.

After cutting the skin, they found nothing; after two more cuts, still nothing.

Finally, angry Xiao Zixing had them cut it from the middle.

Finally, a bit of mixed jade appeared in the middle.

Huang Baoshang saw this and let out a puffed laugh.

"Xiao Zixing, spending three hundred thousand on a cat's-eye-sized ordinary jade is a bit extravagant."

Xiao Zixing's face flushed red with anger as he looked at Xiao Chen.

"This guy, is he just all talk, with no real skill?"

He watched Lin Yang walk to a child-sized stone and feel it up and down.

"Boss..."

Xiao Zixing gritted his teeth, pointed at the stone, and shouted.

"Boss, I want that stone!"

The boss said: "That stone isn't cheap; you really want it?"

"Sure, go ahead and weigh it; my Xiao Clan can afford this amount!"

The boss nodded and immediately had someone lift the jade stone.

"Young Master Xiao, that's a total of 3.6 million."

Xiao Zixing took out a card and handed it to the boss.

"Swipe the card!"

"Cut the raw stone for me!"

The staff, seeing the wealthy and generous Xiao Zixing, also worked extra hard.

If they actually succeeded, Xiao Zixing would give them some bonus.

"It's out, it's out, it's ice-seed grade."

The cutter shouted excitedly.

Upon hearing that, Xiao Zixing also excitedly ran to the front.

He looked at the bowl-sized ice seed, feeling proud, and looked at Lin Yang.

"Looks like my eye for quality is good."

Seeing Xiao Zixing's petty triumph, Huang Baoshang gritted her teeth in anger.

He was about to speak when Lin Yang stopped him.

Lin Yang laughed and said to Xiao Zixing.

"That's pretty impressive; keep cutting?"

Xiao Zixing heard that, smiled proudly, and said.

Cut, keep cutting for me!

Then, the staff continued cutting.

But, aside from the ice seed the size of a bowl's mouth at the start, they got nothing.

Even after the whole stone was cut through, there was no gain.

Originally, Xiao Zixing, who had been full of pride, now had an ashen face, his lips trembling.

Three million six hundred thousand plus the previous three hundred thousand makes nearly four million.

And this four million yielded nothing; if it got back to his grandfather's ears...

He wouldn't die, but he'd lose a layer of skin.

Amidst his fear, he glared angrily at Lin Yang.

You screwed me!

You did it on purpose!

Looking at the angry Xiao Zixing, Lin Yang laughed and said.

Did I ever tell you to buy a stone?

Wasn't it all you snatching stones from my hands? Now why blame me?

Hearing that, Xiao Zixing trembled with anger.

He pointed at Lin Yang with his finger, unable to utter a word.

Huang Baoshang, seeing this, also chuckled.

This made Xiao Zixing even angrier; he pointed at Lin Yang.

You bastard!

Lin Yang smiled, picked up a raw stone the size of a human head.

I'll give you a chance; this stone will definitely produce emerald, buying it is a sure profit.

Hearing that, Xiao Zixing immediately burst out cursing.

You're trying to fool a three-year-old; if this yields green, I'll eat the stone skin!

Hearing his words, Lin Yang smiled, had the boss weigh it, then handed the raw stone to the cutter.

Just cut along the skin.

When the skin was cut off and the green reflected in everyone's eyes, they all couldn't help but exclaim.

It's really emerald!

The cutter also broke out in a cold sweat, he asked Lin Yang.

Should we keep cutting?

Lin Yang smiled, borrowed a marker from the boss, and drew a circle on the stone skin.

Just cut along what I drew.

When cut open, an emerald the size of a child's head appeared before everyone.

Lin Yang picked up the stone, grinning as he looked at Xiao Zixing.

Young Master Xiao, I told you it would definitely produce green; why don't you believe me?

Looking at the jade in Lin Yang's hand, Xiao Zixing turned white with anger, his whole body trembling.

You... you...

Seeing him like that, Lin Yang laughed and said.

I gave you a chance; you didn't cherish it yourself.

At that moment, the boss stepped forward, observed for a while, and sighed.

With this cut, making thirty million is no problem.

Xiao Zixing was almost driven mad with anger; he didn't act when he should have.

When he didn't act, he was just showing off wildly.

You... you've got guts; you just wait for me!

Having said that, he stormed off angrily.

After he left, Lin Yang looked at the boss.

Now, can you give me the blood jade?

The boss let out a long sigh, fetched the blood jade and handed it to Lin Yang.

I've been in this business so long, I've never seen someone as uncanny as you.

Your way of toying with that person makes it seem like you can see whether there's any good stuff inside the raw stone.

Lin Yang, hearing that, also showed a smile.

These are just coincidences.

Having obtained the item, Lin Yang prepared to go back and carve a protective talisman from the blood jade.

He had just stepped out of the basement when he saw Xiao Zixing leading people, standing at the exit.

Seeing Lin Yang, Xiao Zixing gritted his teeth and said.

Kid, hand over whatever you drive!

Looking at the fierce Xiao Zixing, Lin Yang gave a slight smile and said.

What if I don't?
