The powerful princess arrives with a space warehouse

At this time, cheers rang out from the audience: "The red rose is out! The red rose is out!"

“It’s started!” “It’s started!”

Ouyang Yunyao looked at the stage below through the thin curtains. She saw the woman in red on the stage, flipping her hair, smiling, and saying in a charming voice, "Dear guests, the auction of the third rough stone begins!"

She then introduced, "This is a piece of black Wusha rough stone. This is the cut surface. Take a look. The starting price of this rough stone is one hundred taels."

As soon as she finished speaking, someone in the hall raised a sign and shouted "One hundred and twenty taels."

Then someone directly raised a sign: "Two hundred taels."

He sang all the way and the price was raised to three hundred and fifty taels.

Ouyang Yunyao complained in her heart: Interesting! Can't these people see the fine cracks on the stone? These three hundred and fifty taels will be wasted.

That charming voice rang out, "Three hundred and fifty taels for the first time!"

"Three hundred and fifty taels for the second time!"

"Three hundred and fifty taels for the third time!"

A faint smile appeared at the corner of Ouyang Yunyao's lips: From ancient times to the present, the auction procedures and names are the same.

"The last piece of rough stone belongs to Baozi No. 2."

There was a lively sound below.

After a while, the charming voice sounded again, "No. 2 Baozi, please come and pick up this piece of black sand rough stone."

"Go and pay the money. I'll be there in a moment." A woman's voice came from a window on the second floor.

Ouyang Yunyao glanced at the window where the voice came from. She didn't expect that there were other women here.

In a matter of seconds, a masked man walked onto the stage and said to the woman in red, "Our package number two has been paid." This mask is provided by Cuiyu Pavilion to everyone who takes a photo.

"Okay, do you need it cut?" Red Rose replied with a smile.

"cut"

The charming voice shouted, "Begin cutting."

When everyone in the hall heard the cutting begin, they fell silent instantly.

Looking at this scene, Xia Fei couldn't help but ask Ouyang Yunyao, "Is the jade in here big, Princess?"

"The jade in this stone should be quite large, but the quality is probably very poor."

"Oh, princess, then it won't sell for a high price."

"Ok!"

Everyone in the hall held their breath and watched the two cutting masters on the stage moving the black sand rough stone.

The charming voice of Red Rose sounded again, "Sir, how do you cut the first knife?" she asked the masked man.

"Cut from the other end." He pointed to a spot with his hand.

The master on the stage used a saw to start cutting at the place he said. The stone was relatively large, and it took about half an incense stick of time to cut a small piece off. A bright green color was revealed at the cut.

"It's green, it's green!" someone shouted excitedly.

"Sir, how do you cut this?"

At this time, the masked man asked, "Is there anyone willing to bid?"

Several masked men came up to the stage from below. There were numbers marked on their masks. A total of five people came up, with numbers from one to five. Number one stood next to the raw stone first, touched the cut and looked at it carefully. After looking at it, he did not make an offer.

The second masked man bids "Three hundred and eighty taels."

Numbers 3 and 4 remained silent. Number 5 bid “four hundred taels.” Then no one followed.

The masked man holding the rough stone looked up at the second floor and said, "Continue cutting."

Because he was not satisfied with the price, he asked the cutting master to continue grinding one side a little bit at the original opening.

This time, the two masters did not use machetes or saws, but instead used grinding wheels to grind.

Ouyang Yunyao thought to herself: The gambling on stones here is quite big. It seems that no matter which dynasty, the gambling is the same.

The cutting master rubbed the small opening with a grinding wheel. After a while, he polished out a little corner, and a bit of green jade appeared.

"Beautiful, ice type," the people below started to shout.

"My little princess, look at this green, it's very pure green, there is green on both sides, the jade in here must be of a high quality!" Han Fengli was a little skeptical about what Ouyang Yunyao had just said.

Ouyang Yunyao took out a telescope again and observed it carefully for a while and said, "This is just a piece of scrap. If he continues to drive it, it will be ruined."

The second masked man on the stage said, "Four hundred and twenty taels."

"Princess, whoever buys this scrap stone will lose money, right?" Xia Yan asked.

"That's right. As the saying goes, one knife makes you rich, one knife makes you poor, and one knife makes you wear sackcloth."

"Ah! Princess, can you please not do that?"

"How is that possible? There is no regret or return when gambling on stones."

"Oh, so much money is gone when I lose it. Ah! More than four hundred taels." Xia Fei said with a pained look.

"Girl, why should you feel pain when others don't feel pain at all?"

The man still did not agree to ship the product and asked the cutting master to continue polishing a small corner.

"Yaoyao, did the person who holds the jade discover early on that there is something wrong with the jade and why didn't he let the master cut a large piece of it?" Chu Chenjing raised his eyebrows and couldn't help asking Ouyang Yunyao.

"It's hard to say. We don't know how the people here gamble. Have they always been like this, or did this person find a crack and dare not cut it open?"

The cutting master used the grinding wheel to polish it for half an incense stick of time, and a little bit of the skin of the original stone was peeled off, and the emerald green appeared again.

"This time it's a big deal."

"Good stuff! Good stuff!" Everyone in the hall became excited. Everyone sitting in the hall liked to gamble on stones, but they didn't have much money. Those sitting in the private rooms were the big guys and rich people.

The masked man spoke again, "Whoever wants it now, I'll give it to them this time."

Number one and two did not speak, so number three stepped forward and felt it carefully again. "Four hundred and thirty taels."

"Four hundred and seventy taels." Number Five shouted.

"Give it to me. I'll give you four hundred and ninety taels." Number One spoke at this time.

"Five hundred and twenty taels."

"Princess Jing, if this green color turns out to be good material, how much silver should it be sold for?" Qin Linggang asked, looking at the piece of raw stone in the middle of the table that had been cut a little.

"At least three thousand taels." Han Fengli guessed. Although he didn't understand raw stones, he knew something about jadeite.

"It's more than three thousand taels, it's more than two three thousand taels."

"So many?" Han Fengli looked at Ouyang Yunyao with disbelief.

"Don't disbelieve me. Tomorrow I will bring you here to see it for yourself."

While they were talking, the price had already reached seven hundred taels.

The masked man holding the rough stone was still struggling. Red Rose asked in a charming voice, "Sir, have you thought about it? Do you want to continue cutting?"

The masked man saw that no one was bidding and no one was coming up to the stage, so he quickly said, "I've thought about it. I won't cut it. This is the price."

Two male bodyguards came to the jade shop to witness the transaction between the two. The masked man No. 3, who got the raw stone, handed the 700 taels of silver to the young man who originally held the jade.
