The two bodyguards kept their word. An hour and a half later, they appeared at Xu Youyou's house. Each of them lifted one side of the stone sculpture and quickly lifted it onto the cart.

Xu Fang was already waiting downstairs.

After Xu Youyou got in the car, it arrived at the destination smoothly. Even though the other three people in the car knew that Xu Youyou liked quiet rules, she still felt that four people in one car was too crowded.

"Can you drive?" Xu Youyou asked bodyguard Zhang Jun.

Zhang Jun immediately said, "Boss, I've been driving for ten years."

When Xu Fang heard this, she suddenly became nervous. She was afraid of losing her job, but now she was driving and did not dare to look back at her boss's face.

Xu Youyou didn't let Xu Fang worry for too long, and instead said to Zhang Jun directly: "Since you can drive, go pick a car later, and you two will drive behind us from now on."

Zhang Jun's eyes lit up. Although he knew that the boss was dissatisfied with the crowded car, the sense of freedom of being able to drive by himself was incomparable to taking a car.

Although Xu Fang kept her job, the sense of crisis in her heart remained. She needed this job more than anyone else. Only by being more useful to her boss could she have a greater chance of keeping her job.

After the car arrived at the destination, the bodyguard got out first and did Xu Fang's job. Xu Fang suddenly had an idea and pulled out a parasol from the side.

In front of the Jade Museum, there were a lot of raw stones and a stone-cutting machine. A group of people were watching the stone-cutting when suddenly someone shouted, "Here comes a fat sheep!"

Everyone immediately turned around and looked over.

The first thing I saw was the car, and I silently put a price on it in my mind.

Then he saw two bodyguards in black suits, which raised the level of the fat sheep even higher.

Finally, they drove past a female driver holding a parasol, and Xu Youyou's net worth instantly rose to hundreds of millions in their eyes.

Xu Youyou was surrounded by three people and walked to the door of the Jade Museum.

"Beauty, do you want to play gambling on stones? Just one cut can double your worth!" said the boss with a smile.

Xu Youyou glanced at him and said, "It's probably a bit difficult to double my worth with just one blow."

The boss's eyes narrowed. He didn't expect that Xu Youyou would say such a thing. What's the difference between this and admitting that he is very rich?

Xu Youyou didn't care about the other party's scrutiny and asked directly, "Boss, how much does it cost to cut the stone?"

The boss said: "If you buy stones from me, there is no charge for cutting them. If you bring stones from outside, it depends on the size of the stone."

Xu Youyou looked back at the two bodyguards, and they immediately lifted the stone sculpture down from the car.

The boss took a look and said, "The stone used for stone carving is difficult to produce green due to its material. Are you sure you want to untie this good stone carving?"

Xu Youyou nodded: "Boss, please evaluate it and charge whatever you want."

The boss shook his head and said, "Since this is our first meeting, let's make friends right now. I'll help you solve it once for free."

The boss makes most of his money from gambling on stones, not from cutting stones. Xu Youyou is worth a lot of money, so he also wants to sell her for a good price.

But Xu Youyou said, "If I don't take the money, I won't feel at ease. I don't feel safe with friends like that."

The boss laughed and said helplessly: "You are too polite, beautiful lady. I will charge you 200 yuan."

After Xu Youyou paid two hundred yuan, she asked the bodyguard to carry the stone sculpture near the machine.

Just as the staff at the Jade Pavilion was about to take action, the boss waved his hand and said, "I'll do it myself."

Xu Youyou didn't care who took action.

"Beauty, draw a line first." The boss handed a pen to Xu Youyou.

Xu Youyou didn't quite understand this kind of thing, so she said directly, "You decide."

The boss first realized that Xu Youyou must be an outsider, but he did not dare to look down on Xu Youyou.

There seems to be a fixed ritual for cutting stones.

The boss started the stone-breaking machine only after he shouted, "One machine starts, and it's worth a fortune."

He used a relatively delicate stone-cutting method, slowly polishing along the edges of the stone.

After going around, I couldn't see any other colors, it was all fluff.

"Boss, this stone doesn't look valuable. Don't use the water-grinding method. Just cut it in half with a knife." A spectator shouted.

The owner of the jade museum hesitated for a moment and turned to look at Xu Youyou beside him.

Xu Youyou shook her head: "Just keep grinding like this."

The boss had no choice but to continue polishing the stone sculpture.

Such delicate work takes too long, and many spectators have become bored and have gone to watch other machines cutting stones. Not many people are paying attention to Xu Youyou's stone anymore.

Twenty minutes later, a curious person came over to take another look. Seeing that the process was still slow and laborious, he shook his head and said, "Boss, this beauty is an amateur. Why are you also an amateur? Are you really willing to accompany her in her messing around?"

The boss was in a dilemma at this point. He had thought Xu Youyou was an important person and wanted to make friends with him, so he served him personally.

He already felt a little regretful at this moment, and his hands slacked off a bit, not looking carefully at what the stone sculpture looked like.

"Stop!" Xu Youyou suddenly shouted.

The boss looked at her suspiciously.

Xu Youyou said: "It's green."

The boss casually replied: "Beautiful lady, your stone is a carving material, it is difficult to produce green..."

As soon as he finished speaking, he looked down and was stunned.

Under the stone cutter, a little bit of rich green color is revealed.

The boss wiped off the stone chips in disbelief, and then all he could see in his eyes was that hint of green.

It is a very bright and rich green, the color is extremely uniform, without any color difference or spots, and one look at it will make people fall in love with it.

The boss has been in the jade business for many years, so he naturally recognized what it was: "Imperial Green!"

His voice was trembling, but it was clearly heard by everyone present.

In three seconds, everyone gathered around.

“It’s really imperial green!”

"I never thought that I would be able to see the Imperial Green unlocked in my lifetime!"

"There's also a piece of stone this big, I guess it could yield several kilograms!"

"I'm rich! Where did you buy this stone? Which pile of raw stones did it come from? I want to buy it too!"

The people around were talking about it. Their eyes turned red when they looked at the stone, and they wanted to rush up and grab the stone into their arms.

As the owner of this stone, Xu Youyou remained remarkably calm: "Boss, continue solving it."

The boss didn't move immediately, but said, "Beautiful lady, if you want to sell it, I'm willing to buy it for 50 million."

Gambling on stones is actually a two-part gamble. The first is to bet on whether your stone can produce green. The second is to bet on how much green the half-opened stone can produce.

A more conservative person may choose to sell the stone after seeing the green color, so that the jade stones that are opened later will have nothing to do with him.

Xu Youyou spent about 300,000 RMB to send this stone sculpture back to China.

If 300,000 is exchanged for 50 million, some people may choose to give up.

But Xu Youyou didn't. Instead, she said confidently, "Continue solving it."
