Lin Luo suppressed the excitement in his heart and asked the shopkeeper without showing the slightest expression, “How much for this jadeite?”

The shopkeeper took a look at the black briquette-like jadeite, and casually quoted a price, “50,000!”

This piece of jadeite is just so big, where is it worth 50,000 credits? The owner’s heart was too dark!

However Lin Luo didn’t want to say anything to such a person, so he took out the memory card and registered the information. After the transfer transaction was completed, he left with his little piece of jadeite.

Now that he found the right jadeite, Lin Luo did not continue to search around and went directly to learn about the situation in Stone Sanding Square with Xing Mo.

At this time, the cutting and sanding square was extremely lively. Almost every cutting and sanding machine was surrounded by a large crowd of onlookers, but they are all gathered only on each side of the machine, leaving the center position to the association members, so as not to affect their game.

“Lin Luo! Lin Luo!” He Kun saw Lin Luo and Xing Mo from afar, and flagged them over. Their branch was assigned to the cutting and sanding machine in position 3.

Mr. Liu had solved one piece just now, and the increase was estimated to be relatively small. The score of their branch had only increased by two points, and by the time Lin Luo arrived he was cutting his second piece.

This piece of jadeite featured a yellow sand skin with obvious python bands on the surface. It is a high gamble, as the price was certainly not low. Even if the jade is good it is estimated that the increase will not be too large, but as long as the points can be obtained it is still an increase.

Lin Luo’s guess was right. Once Mr. Liu opened a few windows on his jadeite they could see the clear green inside. Although the texture and clarity was good, the color was only light green and the value would not be that high.

Finally, from this piece of jadeite a 3 kilogram piece of light green water jade was obtained. The purchase price had been 600,000 credits, and the jade had an estimated value of 650,000 credits, which was an increase of only 50,000. The light brain analyzed it based on current market prices. For this their club could get a single point. Despite that, their current points were still negative and they were still in the bottom of the rankings.

It can only be said that it is worthy of a friendly match within the Stone Gambling Association. The difficulty is not low. It is not enough to just bet on a rise in value, it must be a big value increase to win. The jadeite merchants knew the rules of the Stone Gambling Association, so when they saw them buying the prices they offered were very high, and it was difficult for the association members to find suitable jadeite.

Although the two pieces of jadeite had a small gain, Old Liu still had no joy on his face. He sighed and walked to the bench to sit down and rest.

Wang Xun had been guarding the stone machine, watching the ranking of his branch at the bottom. In fact, his heart was very anxious, but as the branch president, he could not allow himself to bring negativity to the members and cause more pressure on them.

“Otherwise, let me try…?” He Kun said hesitantly. The piece of jadeite he bought hadn’t been cut yet.

He Kun’s jadeite had a pineapple skin exterior. The jadeite with this kind of skin was from mountain stone and usually had an easier time producing good jadeite. Of course, the price was certainly not cheap.

Lin Luo observed the exterior of this piece of jadeite and felt that the possibility of a value increase was very high.

“I bought this piece for 500,000 credits. I am worried that the value of the jadeite produced won’t be that high and on the contrary, it will be deducted…” He Kun’s piece of jadeite is not large. He can’t guarantee that he will gamble a big value increase, so he hasn’t dared to try.

He Kun watched the live feed before and saw another member confidently holding a piece of jadeite bought for 800,000 to be cut, only to reveal a jade of a dry green type. Although the color of the dry green jade is very good, the crystal structure is extremely poor, which means that the energy is mixed, which is not conducive to extraction. This means that compared to the starting price its value was greatly reduced, and their branch was deducted five points in the end. He Kun was worried about following that person’s footsteps, so he didn’t dare to take it lightly.

Lin Luo could understand He Kun’s mood very well. While carefully checking the performance of the jadeite husk, he used special abilities to investigate the situation inside the jadeite. The verdant aura indicated that the energy was sufficient.

“I think it can be tried. The sandy texture of this jadeite skin is fine, and the jade inside should not be bad. Look here, there are hair needles and pine flowers, which means that there may be good colors inside.” The hairy needles and pine flowers are slender in shape. The needles were mixed with yellow and green, which were difficult to identify. If Lin Luo didn’t have such good eyesight, he might not have found it.

“It’s really hairy needles and pine flowers! I didn’t even notice it!” He Kun suddenly smiled. He might able to bet that this piece of jadeite would have a good enough crystal structure and good enough color to result in an excellent quality jade.

Wang Xun heard the conversation between the two clearly, so he reached out and patted He Kun on the shoulder and said, “Xiao He, then you can try it.”

“Okay!” He Kun had a little confidence this time and put his jadeite on the rack to load it into the stone machine.
