Chapter 38 - 38 38 This is Impossible
Chapter 38: Chapter 38: This is Impossible! Chapter 38: Chapter 38: This is Impossible! Fifty-thousand dollars, Sean Knight could still afford.
He handed the fifty-thousand dollars to Mason Arnold, and then looked at Jack Moore.
Jack was somewhat hesitant. He whispered a few words to the woman.
The woman grumbled and unwillingly took money from her bag, Jack also took out some of his own, and the two together handed over fifty-thousand dollars.
Sean Knight laughed, turns out both of them were not that rich!
They looked radiant and beautiful, but they were just embroidered pillows after all!
“Which one should we cut first?” Mason Arnold asked the two.
“Cut his first.” The woman who paid the money, as if she was the one placing the bet, decided for Jack.
Mason Arnold looked at Sean Knight, who naturally had no objections.
The stonecutting master came over and carefully examined Sean’s stone before placing it under the stonecutting machine, securing it, and preparing to cut.
Sean knew that cutting it this way would reveal one corner of the jadeite inside.
If it were really used as jadeite jewelry, it would be somewhat pitiful.
However, Sean didn’t care. All he needed was to absorb the energy inside, and any cut would do.
A harsh sound rang out, water flowed over the cutting blade, and a cloud of stone powder was stirred up.
The woman was a bit nervous and whispered to Jack while holding his hand:
“Dear, will there be jadeite inside his stone?”
“There might be jadeite.” Jack had carefully observed the raw jade that Sean chose earlier and felt that there was jadeite inside, so that was his conclusion, “but the quality won’t be too good.”
He patted the woman’s buttocks and playfully said:
“Don’t worry, I’m sure to win!”
Over there, Monica Brown and Emily Taylor were also very tense.
Although they had just placed a bold ten-thousand-dollar bet, at this moment, as the result was about to be revealed, they couldn’t help but feel nervous!
The raw jade on the fixed frame was cut into two pieces.
The master raised the cutting lock and then picked up the larger piece, rinsed it with water, revealing the jade inside.
“Wow!”
“At least it’s icy species, right?”
“I can see the glass species!”
“However, it’s positive green; if it could be greener, it would be worth so much more!”
“It’s a pity; it’s too small… the size of a fist; it can’t even make a bracelet…”
“The quality is pretty good, and it’s worth at least several tens of thousands of dollars, right?”
“Yeah, indeed…”
There were quite a few experts around, and as soon as the master rinsed it, the onlookers immediately drew their conclusions.
The master picked up the other half of the stone, rinsed it, and sighed, apologizing to Sean Knight:
“Mr. Knight, I’m sorry, I cut a bit of the jadeite…”
“It’s okay, it’s okay!”
After all, it wasn’t being made into jewelry, so there was no loss as long as it stayed intact.
Jack looked at him somewhat unexpectedly.
Mason Arnold came over, carefully inspected the two pieces of stone, then used a high-powered flashlight to shine on them, and said to the stonecutting master:
“Dig out this piece of jadeite, we can’t make any mistakes this time.”
“Rest assured!” The master nodded.
Next was the process of cutting the stone skin and peeling the jadeite.
About ten minutes later, an irregular jadeite, slightly smaller than an adult fist, appeared in front of everyone.
Mason Arnold looked at it for a while, and then said loudly:
“Mr. Knight’s jadeite is positive green, glass species, weighs 423 grams, no cracks or flaws, has an even color, and is valued at fifty-five thousand dollars. Any objections?”
“No.” Sean Knight shook his head.
Jack also shook his head.
No one else had any objections either.
There was a limit to watching the excitement. After all, it was necessary to give the host some face.
“Alright, now let’s cut the raw jade that Jack picked.”
The stonecutting master took that piece of raw jade, looked at it for a while, and directly asked Jack:
“Where do you want to cut from?”
Some people were secretly feeling indignant for Sean Knight, learning from the last lesson.
But Sean Knight himself didn’t care.
After all, he was definitely going to win!
Jack Moore looked at the stone and drew a line on it.
The stonecutting master looked at it, his expression a bit troubled, but he still started cutting according to Jack’s line.
If that line were on the front, the bottom would be uneven, and it would be difficult to secure the stone.
Still, the stonecutting master found a small broken stone to pad underneath before starting to cut.
With one cut, many people even held their breaths.
The outcome of this gamble was about to appear!
The stone was cut in half, and one half, because it was unstable, fell directly to the ground.
The stonecutting master picked it up, rinsed it off with water, and revealed the jadeite inside.
“Wow, it’s so green!”
Someone couldn’t help but exclaim.
“It really is green!”
“The main thing is that the green area is quite big, at least the size of a football, and could make two bracelets!”
Hearing someone say that, Monica Brown and Emily Taylor immediately became nervous.
They looked at each other and saw the uneasiness in each other’s eyes.
Jack Moore’s face showed joy, and the woman looked smugly at Monica Brown, then looked at the 100,000 dollars Mason Arnold handed to his daughter.
Soon, it would all belong to her and Jack Moore!
Making money and getting a chance to show off, how refreshing!
After the stonecutting master picked up the other half of the raw jade and cleaned it, he showed it to Mason Arnold and the others.
“Sigh, we misjudged!”
“Yeah, we wasted such a green jade!”
“What a waste, this is brick material! So dry, how could it be…!”
As both pieces of raw jade were revealed, the tone of the onlookers changed.
“Strange… this green and this texture don’t match. It should have been at least bean type… but no matter how you look at it, this is only slightly better than brick material…”
The enchanting woman didn’t react and couldn’t help but urge the stonecutting master:
“Hey, master, why don’t you take out the jadeite?”
The stonecutting master asked in return:
“Do I really need to take it out?”
The woman thought the master was mocking her and immediately sought comfort from Jack Moore.
But then she noticed that Jack’s face was livid!
At this moment, the woman also realized that something was wrong.
She cautiously asked Jack Moore:
“Is there… a problem with our jadeite?”
Jack gritted his teeth and said:
“How is that possible… I made careful observations! This raw jade must have had a big piece of jadeite and the quality should be good…”
Sean Knight, who was listening, mocked:
“There’s no problem with having a big piece of jadeite, but as for the quality… Hehe!”
In fact, he knew from the beginning that the jadeite in this raw material would be only bean type at best.
As for the green color, it was really the kind of brick material that no one wanted in the last century, but now people call it iron dragon because jadeite has become scarce.
Although the jadeite was large, its value was significantly less than the jadeite he had.
Sean Knight just used Sky Eye to “accidentally” “draw” a little while picking up the stone to disgust these two people.
And then it ended up like this.
It was just that a ten-thousand-dollar jadeite turned into five-thousand, nothing more!
Just as Mason Arnold was about to speak, Jack Moore suddenly ran over, hugged the raw jade, and said:
“I won’t accept this! You must reveal all of it! There has to be high-quality jadeite inside! I’m a professional! I trust my eyes!”
What do you think?
