"I'll go first!"
The Xing family's stone came from the mine mountain range with the best feng shui. When it was first mined, it almost opened it. After a long discussion, it was decided to put it in the Yuling Tower.
This is a good opportunity to showcase the Xing family's jade. The sky-high prices for jade will have a huge impact on the jade business.
There is an unwritten rule among the four major families in Xianyang City. Every year, one or two stones are specially selected for comparison. One is to test the four major families' ability to recognize jade, and the other is to expand the family's influence and status in the jade world.
Choose the best one or two pieces, mark them with prices, and put them in the most conspicuous place in the middle of the first floor. If a customer purchases it within a month, it will be opened for inspection on site. If no one buys it, they will finally unlock it together and compete.
The Xing family's profits have not been very good recently, and they rarely produce extremely precious jade. This is very detrimental to the jade business. The quality of the stone is not good, and the rate of producing precious jade is low. Who is willing to spend a lot of money to buy it.
Xing Xiu is very confident in this stone. The senior elders of the family have seen it and gave it very high evaluations. On the other hand, the other three are not the same as in the past, and its value is at most slightly higher than the price tag.
Taking this opportunity to defeat the young man who was just named the number one in the jade industry by the conference, he will surely become famous in one fell swoop, and both his family's prestige and the jade industry will be greatly increased.
You can also win a piece of expensive jade, killing three birds with one stone.
Xing Xiuzheng was secretly happy that he could contribute to the family. Maybe he would be rewarded with the family treasure immediately. He was happy just thinking about it!
Master Shanyan took the stone, nodded repeatedly, and said, "It's a good piece of material. Let's see if it can outshine the four jade stones in front." He looked at Ling Han thoughtfully as he spoke.
The gravel fell off little by little, and Xing Xiu held his hands in front of his chest, clenching his fingers tightly, looking slightly nervous, and there was a look of pity on his beautiful face.
Circles of stone layers were broken open, but there was still no jade color. Master Shan Yan shook the hammer slightly, changed his hands and continued to hit. Dangdang, sometimes deep and sometimes shallow, breathing slightly, continued to crack the stone.
Xing Xiu couldn't sit still, there were not many stones left, and her face became a little ugly, "Did everyone see it wrong?"
On the other hand, Master Shanyan had a gloomy expression and was focused on unraveling the stone, meticulously.
Under the hammering of hundreds of hammers, the round stone was broken into long strips. The mountain and rock master wiped the sweat from his forehead, took a long breath, exercised his power and breath, and struck more slowly and finely, as if carving. A delicate object.
"Ding!"
The loud and crisp sound spread throughout the hall, and everyone's eyes followed the sound in unison. Xing Xiu opened her mouth, her red lips trembled, and said in a voiceless voice: "Crimson! Fire Jade!"
A strip of red jade two fingers wide and half a foot long revealed a fiery red jade glow under Master Shanyan's hammer.
The beautiful fiery red color is like a graceful woman in red dancing. It is dazzling and illuminates the entire space. Countless people are moved by its color, which is as natural and flawless as hibiscus emerging from the water.
Crimson fire jade is not only beautiful, but also a precious material for forging heavenly weapons. It is extremely valuable, even surpassing the edge of the best jade king.
After all, the top-quality Jade King sublimates earthly weapons into heavenly weapons, and crimson fire jade can be directly forged into a heavenly weapon!
"It's a pity that the piece is too small, so I can only make one dagger!" someone said regretfully.
Another person retorted: "Don't underestimate this piece of jade, you can't get it for fifty thousand gold!"
"The price of this piece of crimson fire jade is between 70,000 and 80,000, which is equivalent to the value of the top-quality Jade King just solved!" Lan Xu gave an official assessment.
After all, the Crimson Fire Jade is too small and can only be used to create short-armed daggers and the like. This kind of weapon has a small audience and is relatively low-priced. However, the top-grade Jade King can use any weapon, so it has a huge audience and its value is relatively higher.
Xing Xiu's heart was surging. The decision made by the family was right. Even if the stone was put on display, it was not for sale. If it were sold for only 20,000 gold, it would be a huge loss.
With the confidence to win, he held his hands in front of his chest, with satisfaction and joy on his face.
Looking at this piece of crimson fire jade, I was filled with joy. I secretly glanced at Ling Han and found that he was not in a panic and was calmly sipping the tea he found from somewhere.
He felt a little confused for a moment, and a little scared. If he lost, the crimson fire jade would be his!
"The crimson fire jade is not bad. It can be made into a short blade of heavenly rank. It's called the Crimson Blade!" Ling Han put down the tea and admired the beauty of the beautiful jade.
Xing Xiu glanced at Ling Han, a look of worry arose spontaneously, and she cheered herself up in a panic, "Huh, are you so sure that you can win? You have even thought of a name?"
"Master Shanyan, please!" Ling Han picked up the stone and respectfully placed it on the stone plate in front of Master Shanyan.
Master Shanyan nodded, stroked his beard, and said to Ling Han bluntly: "I have an impression of this stone!"
"When the stone was first mined, Wei Zhen asked me to taste it. The stone was mined from the bottom of the oldest mine, but jade is no longer produced there."
"And this stone is extremely uncertain. If you hammer it down, you will either get a thousand taels of gold or nothing."
Then he stared at Ling Han with admiration, "Since you have bought it, you should have something to rely on. Let me see if you are worthy of the title of number one in the jade world!"
The whole place was in an uproar!
The number one person in the jade world! Not the number one young person in the jade industry!
Master Shanyan actually used the success or failure of a stone to give such a weighty title to a young man!
Master Shan Yan said to Ling Han seriously: "No matter what happens to this stone, your future is immeasurable."
Then he added: "At least his attainments in jade are no less than those of any old guy."
This made Ling Han feel a little unnatural. He knew how to hammer jade, and in his eyes, there was no difference between all the stones. All of this was Xiao Bai's credit.
"I'm going to start!"
After Master Shanyan adjusted his breathing slightly, he rubbed his hands, held the stone with his left hand, and picked up the black ancient hammer with his right hand.
"Bang!" A hammer knocked open several long cracks.
"Bang!" When the second hammer came down, a circle of stone fragments fell off, and the stone shrunk by half.
"Dang!" With the third hammer, the stone cracked, revealing a bit of white, the final word!
Two palm-sized moon-white crystals lie like a round gemstone in the center of the stone plate. They are natural and crystal clear, with fluctuations around them, as if they want to cut through the space.
"Space alien crystal!" Master Shanyan said in shock.
"What!"
"Oh my god! That's a treasure!"
A space ring the size of a rice grain can be made into a space ring, covering dozens of square meters of space.
Space rings have always been luxury and high-end products. It is almost difficult for people without power and status to obtain one. Even if one or two are put up for auction, the price is sky-high.
Just because space alien crystals are very rare, there are very few of them in the whole continent. To see such a large piece in Xieyang City today is really rare in a thousand years.
"No wonder those old guys can't see it. Even I'm not sure. The variables of spatial alien crystals are too great. Affected by space fluctuations, even gods can't distinguish them!" Master Shanyan said to himself.
The elders present were all shocked. They were really old. The latter wave was stronger than the former wave. The jade world would soon be dominated by young people.
"The outcome is obvious!" Lan Xu recovered from the shock and continued to host the competition.
Xing Xiu was stunned. When he saw the moon-white flash after Master Shan Yan struck the third hammer, Xing Xiu knew that he had lost.
I lost to this impossible event and grew up around jade. How could I not know the most magical thing about jade, the alien crystal in space!
Master Shan Yan said: "How did you see it?"
"It looked strange compared to other stones, so I bought it for fun. It seems like I got a big deal!" Ling Han made it up casually.
Master Shan Yan nodded and said: "It is indeed very common, even more common than ordinary stones. It is this commonness that makes it worth 20,000 gold."
Huo Chuan swallowed his saliva and spat out a sentence with difficulty: "Only Brother Mu dares to spend 20,000 gold on such an unreliable stone."
"This is the most precious jade today!"
