âOpen it now. Youâve already bought it. Whatâs the point of not opening it now? Are you going to leave it at home as a decoration?â The onlookers jeered.
âThatâs right. Letâs open it right now and let everyone broaden their horizons.â âOpen it on the spot!â
Lin Wenyu had always been an obedient girl. She was also waiting excitedly to see the scene unfold.
The fat man handed his card to Boss Wang and paid.
More and more people gathered around, wanting to see whether the fat man would become rich overnight or if his money would just go down the drain.
Because the stone was very heavy, Boss Wang had to find a few employees to carry it out. The huge stone probably weighed more than ten kilograms.
Someone said, âSir, are you planning to cut it yourself?â
Lin Wenyu didnât know what was so special about it and asked excitedly, âSu Bei, can you personally cut it?â
âYes, there are some old masters here who can help cut open the stone. They are familiar with the stones and will stop when they see the jade. Therefore, they can cut open the stone as much as possible without destroying the jade inside.
âIf you bought it with your own money, you can find an old master to cut it for you, but you can also cut it yourself.
âMany are willing to cut the stone themselves,â Su Bei explained.
Lin Wenyu clicked her tongue in wonder. Wasnât this too fun? She had never experienced anything like this before. It was really an eye-opener.
âI wonder if heâll cut it himself.â Lin Wenyu was full of anticipation.
The surrounding onlookers also hoped that the fat man who bought the stone would cut it himself. Generally speaking, when customers cut it themselves, they were all bold and decisive. Whether there was a precious stone inside or not, they would just simply cut it open.
If the old masters cut it, while they did a fine job, they always dawdled. There was nothing exciting to see. The lads lifted the stone up and placed it beside the cutter.
The fat man rolled up his sleeves. It seemed like he was going to do it himself.
There were cheers all around. âGood, good! Youâre so manly. Cut it yourself.â
âI wonder if youâll get anything good out of this!â
âA stone worth more than a million yuan. You need some jade to recoup your losses!â
The fat man picked up the cutter, aimed it at the stone, and began to cut. Everyone watched without blinking. The cutting machine and the stone triggered bursts of sparks.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Su Bei took a few steps back.
As the cutting machine cut down the stone, the sweat on the fat manâs face kept seeping out.
Actually, cutting didnât require much strength, but the anxiety in his heart was obvious.
After a loud crash, the stone split into two and fell on both sides. Everyone simultaneously let out a regretful cry. âAiya, what a pity!â âWhat a waste!â
âThereâs nothing!â
This stone had cost more than a million. With one slash, it turned out there was nothing.
As everyone lamented, the fat man started to sweat even more.
It was more than a million yuan. Many ordinary people might not even be able to earn that much money in ten years. However, one cut and everything was gone. Boss Wang didnât look too good either. The customers were all particular about good signs. This was a stone that he had sold. If the customer didnât get anything out of the stone today, then his shopâs business wouldnât be good anymore.
