Reborn as the Strongest Immortal Cultivator in Modern Times

In the following days, Ye Yu transferred 20 million yuan to Gao Weimin, instructing him to purchase raw stones himself.

Since you've decided to open a jewelry company, you need to have enough materials.

She called home again, told them about her plans, and wired the 60 million she had earned in the past two days to them.

He also instructed Lu Zhuofeng to start recruiting more people at the school, since both the cosmetics and jewelry companies needed staff.

At the same time, she also instructed Gao Weimin to spare no expense in recruiting more people.

He knows many people in the jewelry industry, which reduces the need for adjustment.

Finally, Ye Yu called Wang Chaohai and asked him to recommend someone.

The plan was put into action in an orderly manner.

Ye Yu walked alone in the town. She and Gao Weimin had basically searched all over the raw stone quarry in the past two days and acquired thirty stones.

Ye Yu was short of money, so she cut off all of it and sent it to auction.

Liu Xi, the owner of the raw stone quarry, saw that Ye Yu had a sharp eye for talent, and that every stone she selected turned out to be green. He secretly thought he had lost a lot of money.

Ye Yu and Liu Xi were unaware of Liu Xi's thoughts. After exploring the entire raw stone market, they began purchasing from other stalls in the town.

In just a few days, Ye Yu discovered two more pieces of imperial green jade, but neither of them was as large as the previous ones.

She didn't cut it; instead, she put it away, intending to use it as a signboard when the jewelry company opened.

The day before the auction, Ye Yu wandered around town alone.

She went to the raw stone market.

These are all individual vendors, each with their own stall and various kinds of stones displayed in front of them.

Ye Yu channeled her spiritual energy into her eyes, her gaze sweeping across the ground strewn with stones.

Upon seeing this, she couldn't help but smile.

The quality of the raw stones here is much higher than that of the Feixi raw stone mine.

She walked a few steps to a stall, squatted down, and touched a stone that was emitting a white light.

By channeling one's divine sense into it, one could see a vast expanse of transparent ice lake, as pure and flawless as the imperial green.

"Could this be the icy, translucent jadeite that Gao Weimin mentioned? He said this kind of jadeite is most popular with girls," Ye Yu thought to herself.

She asked the shop owner about the price, and he bought it for her for two thousand.

Ye Yu paid the money readily, carried the stone to a corner, and put it away.

Then she went to the stones that emitted yellow, pink, purple, and red light and bought them all.

She borrowed a cart from one of the stall owners and pushed the twenty-odd pieces of fine jade she had bought to the cutting master at the Feixi Raw Stone Quarry.

The cutting master and the people visiting the area already knew Ye Yu.

She's been the center of attention these past few days because she keeps finding jadeite, and the quality is always pretty good.

When she pushed over twenty people, everyone crowded around, and soon the area was surrounded by layers of people.

Ye Yu picked up her paintbrush with practiced ease and began to paint on the stone she had initially bought.

After drawing the line, I handed it to the cutting master, and then picked up another stone to draw another line.

The master took the stone from Ye Yu's hand. For some reason, he inexplicably believed that Ye Yu's stone could produce green jade.

It wasn't until he held the cut stone in his hands that he realized he had guessed wrong.

The cut jadeite didn't have any green color, but it turned out to be an icy, translucent white jadeite!

"My God, it's actually an icy, translucent white jadeite! What incredible luck this person has!"

"Is she cheating? How come she always manages to find such rare jadeite?"

"He's a devil!"

Ignoring the crowd's words, Ye Yu handed another stone to the cutting master.

Without saying a word, the master chef started cutting.

When he saw that it was red jade that had emerged this time, he was shocked once again.

"Red jade! And it's such a big piece!"

"It's actually cockscomb red! So bright and vibrant, and the jade is so translucent—it's simply top-grade!"

"If this were carved into a decorative piece, wow, it would be incredible."

Liu Xi, the owner of the raw stone quarry, emerged from the crowd again: "Miss Ye Yu, you have a discerning eye! Your judgment is remarkable."

He gave Ye Yu a thumbs up: "Are you planning to auction these two pieces?"

Ye Yu nodded to him: "Let's auction it together tomorrow."

"That's great!" Liu Xi slapped her thigh excitedly.

In the past few days, people have been arriving one after another after hearing about it, and the sales of his raw stones have increased several times.

Now that two more rare jade pieces have been unearthed, his business is poised for explosive growth.

"Are you still going to cut these rough stones?" the cutter asked.

Ye Yu waved her hand: "I won't open it. I'll cut it when my jewelry company opens."

Hearing Ye Yu say this, the group was somewhat disappointed; they wanted to see what kind of stones they could find.

Ye Yu has now become famous overnight, and some people are even eyeing her uncut stones.

Someone offered ten million to buy a stone.

Ye Yu certainly didn't sell them; she had even more valuable items inside than what had already been extracted.

She pushed the remaining stones into the bedroom, stored them in her storage ring, turned off the lights, and went to bed to meditate cross-legged.

late at night.

Startled by a few rustling sounds, Ye Yu stopped her breathing exercises and listened intently to the noise.

The noises came from outside the window.

The floor where Ye Yu lives was specially built by Liu Xi to entertain guests; it has seven floors in total.

She lives on the sixth floor.

She used her divine sense and saw three people hanging from ropes sliding down from the roof outside her window, landing right outside her window.

One of them took out a bamboo tube from his pocket, held it against the screen window, and blew a puff of smoke into Ye Yu's room. Then they immediately covered their mouths and noses with handkerchiefs.

Chenshi Town is hot and humid all year round, so most rooms have screen windows open, which makes it convenient for this group to move around.

Ye Yu examined the smoke and determined that it was likely a sleeping potion, and in considerable quantities.

She quietly got out of bed and hid in a corner.

The three waited for a while, and when they saw that it was almost time, they removed the screen window and jumped into the house through the window.

One person turned on a flashlight, walked straight to the bed, lifted the blanket, but found the bed empty.

They panicked instantly and started searching for the person separately.

Ye Yu asked coldly, "Are you looking for me?"

She suddenly spoke in the darkness, startling the three men. One of them was so frightened that he dropped his flashlight on the ground.

"You, how are you still conscious?"

Finally, someone realized what was happening.

"how could I know."

"Impossible. We clearly blew sleeping pills into your room. The amount was enough to knock out an elephant."

"Perhaps you've given the wrong sleeping pill?"

Ye Yu joked.

"Hmph, regardless of whether you took the sleeping pills or not, you still have to hand over the jade!"

One of them raised a knife and threatened Ye Yu.

"I've hidden the stone, and I'm not going to tell you."

"Then you're in for a beating!" The three of them attacked Ye Yu at the same time.

Ye Yu flung out two bone needles, which pierced directly between the eyebrows of two of them.

The last person to rush in was grabbed by the hand and twisted hard. With a crack, his arm broke.

Just as he was about to roar in pain, Ye Yu silenced him by striking his pressure point.

Ye Yu said to him, "Answer my questions properly and I'll let you go."

The man quickly nodded in agreement.

"Who sent you?"

The man whose speech had been released said, "We are from the Yang Gang. This afternoon, our boss received news that you had unearthed rare jadeite such as imperial green and red jade. He also said that you have more than twenty pieces of rough jadeite that you haven't been willing to cut, so our boss sent us to steal them."

Do you know what this person looks like?

"I only saw his back; he was wearing a suit and carrying a briefcase."

“Yangbang”.

This was the first time Ye Yu had ever heard of this gang.

"Boss, I've confessed everything, please let me go."

The man begged Ye Yu for mercy.

His answer was a bone needle.

Ye Yu threw a fireball that burned the three corpses, then returned to his bed and sat cross-legged in meditation. All of this happened in just ten minutes.
