Chapter 142 The Gambling Price Increases
Ying Li and Mu Ya walked in front. They bent down from time to time and carefully examined one or two pieces of raw materials. Miao Yimo followed closely behind, keeping a certain distance.
Suddenly, a burst of "bang bang" of firecrackers rang out not far away. The sudden sound made the whole street boil and filled with laughter.
"Whose gambling stone is going up so much? Why is it so lively?"
"It seems to be the Jin family."
"Old Man Jin's family, don't they always sell low-quality goods? Why is there such a big increase in price this time?"
……
Ying Xian had learned through various channels in advance that this was the way to celebrate when gambling on stones soared. People would set off firecrackers to celebrate and express their joy and excitement.
"Let's go over and take a look!"
Ying Li suggested to Mu Ya, her eyes flashing with excitement, as if saying, "Let's go together!" Then she took Mu Ya's hand, and the two walked shoulder to shoulder towards where the crowd gathered. They also wanted to witness this exciting moment with their own eyes.
Ying Ni and Mu Ya made their way through the bustling crowd and finally arrived at the shop where the gambling had gone up. There were already two or three groups of people gathered there, bustling with activity, a scene reminiscent of a different city. Mu Ya eagerly squeezed to the front, asking the people around her for information, her curiosity driving her to understand what was going on.
Soon, Muya found out. It turned out that a jade expert had brought a group of students for a field lesson. They had selected a large number of stones, with each student having one or two. The expert had the store owner unwrap them, hoping to find precious jade among the stones.
The expert hadn't initially expected these students to uncover anything, but the unexpected result was just as surprising. Suddenly, the crowd erupted in exclamations. A piece of Ice-type Black Chicken jade had been unearthed. The jade expert's face lit up with a satisfied smile, and the students were equally thrilled, knowing the value of this piece of jade was inestimable. The instant good news arrived, the excitement was palpable.
Ying Ni and Mu Ya were also moved by the excitement and squeezed to the front to carefully examine the precious jade. The ice-type black chicken shimmered with a charming luster under the light, as if telling its legendary story, which made them fascinated.
At that moment, the entire store seemed enveloped by a mysterious power, everyone immersed in surprise and wonder. Ying Li and Mu Ya exchanged a glance, their hearts filled with longing and awe for the world of jade. They knew this would be an unforgettable experience. They silently vowed to one day touch such beautiful jade and experience its unparalleled beauty and value.
Ying Ni and Mu Ya spent a busy and fulfilling day shopping together. They carefully selected and purchased a large amount of stone from the gambling stone street. The stone piled up like a mountain, and Miao Yimo's cart was already full and could not accommodate any more. The remaining stone was carefully transported to the warehouse by porters, ensuring that every piece of stone arrived safely.
After a long day's work, the two returned to the hotel exhausted. They quickly ate dinner, washed up, and retired to bed. The day's shopping had left them exhausted, and they longed for nothing more than a good night's sleep. As for the stones they'd bought, they'd leave them for tomorrow's detailed processing.
The next morning, when the first rays of sunlight filtered through the slits in the curtains, gently shimmering on Ying Meng and Mu Ya's faces, they were still immersed in a sweet dream. Only when the sun, high in the sky and blazing brightly, did they slowly open their eyes. The warm sunlight filled them with an incomparable sense of comfort, as if the entire world had become lazy and peaceful, as if time had stood still.
After waking up and freshening up quickly, the two decided to go to the hotel for lunch. The restaurant was filled with alluring aromas, from freshly baked bread to fragrant soups to a variety of delicious main courses. The dazzling array of delicious food was mouth-watering. They chose a table by the window and savored the delicious food while admiring the beautiful view outside, experiencing the dual pleasures of nature and food.
After a hearty meal, Ying Ni and Mu Ya strolled along the hotel's path, unknowingly arriving at the pond. Lotus leaves shimmered in the lush greenery, and a few small fish swam happily in the clear water, as if demonstrating its vitality and vibrancy. They spotted Miao Yimo sitting by the pond, fishing rod in hand, intently staring at the water, as if waiting for the moment a fish would bite.
Miao Yimo heard footsteps behind him and turned to see Ying Ni and Mu Ya. He smiled faintly, put away his fishing rod, picked up the nearby feed bucket, and sprinkled the feed into the water. The fish, scented by the feed, swam towards it, and the pond suddenly became bustling with activity, adding a touch of life to the quiet afternoon.
Miao Yimo walked up to them and said with a smile, "Let's go. I'll take you to the warehouse." Ying Ni and Mu Ya exchanged a glance, a flicker of excitement and anticipation in their eyes. They followed behind Miao Yimo obediently, their hearts filled with curiosity and yearning for the stones they had brought back yesterday, anticipating what they would discover next.
Miao Yimo drove a black SUV, slowly advancing along the winding mountain road. Outside the car window, the afterglow of the setting sun cast a golden veil over the mountains. Inside, Ying Meng and Mu Ya sat in the back seat, chatting excitedly. Miao Yimo smiled, his heart filled with anticipation, imagining what would happen next and the unknown they were about to explore.
Soon, the car stopped in front of a massive warehouse. Surrounded by high walls, it seemed particularly mysterious, as if hiding some unspeakable secret. Seeing the owner, Miao Yimo, approach, the warehouse guard quickly opened the door to greet him, his face filled with respect and anticipation. Miao Yimo was the first to exit the car, smiling and saying to Ying Ni and Mu Ya, "We're here," his voice tinged with excitement and pride.
Ying Ni and Mu Ya eagerly jumped out of the car and walked into the warehouse. Upon entering, they were stunned by the sight before them. Two piles of rocks, stacked on top of each other, resembled two small mountains, towering into the sky.
Miao Yimo followed up and said, "The one on the left is Muya's, and the one on the right is yours. I've also found a few experienced craftsmen for you, so you don't have to cut the stone yourself. Let them do it." His words were filled with concern and expectation, hoping that they would gain something from this exploration. Ying Li and Muya exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with gratitude and anticipation. They knew this was more than just a simple stone cutting, but a spiritual journey, an exploration of the unknown.
