Zhan Group

On the surface, Zhan Yanxun was handling company affairs, but he was very unhappy inside. That woman deliberately made him undergo a lot of tests in the hospital, which angered him so much that he was discharged. After he was discharged, she was like a wild horse that had broken free of its reins, ignoring him and acting as if nothing had anything to do with her!

Zhan Yanxun was furious. At this moment, Qiao Weiwei came in and said, "President Zhan, the jade auction is about to begin. We need to leave now."

The jade auction has been cancelled.

Zhan Yanxun was increasingly agitated and had no interest in attending the jade auction. He now wanted to find that carefree woman.

Upon hearing that Zhan Yanxun was not going to the jade auction, Qiao Weiwei immediately became anxious.

How could she do that? She bribed Qin Lao's assistant to leak some information to him, and also wanted to take the opportunity to show off in front of Zhan Yanxun.

If Zhan Yanxun doesn't go, how will she make a good impression!

Qiao Weiwei said anxiously, "President Zhan, Mr. Qin's assistant from the Jade Association said that Mr. Qin has been waiting for you for a long time."

Elder Qin of the Jade Association is a highly respected figure who watched Zhan Yanxun grow up, and Zhan Yanxun has always held Elder Qin in high esteem.

"ready to go."

Hearing Zhan Yanxun's words, Qiao Weiwei was very happy. Today, she wanted to make a good impression on Zhan Yanxun.

Jiang Qianhui's office

"Mr. Jiang, what do you think of this sample?"

"The jadeite has good texture and clarity, but the color is lacking. Do you have any imperial green jadeite?"

"President Jiang, I've already asked the purchasing department, and Imperial Green is extremely scarce."

Jiang Qianhui fell into deep thought, then suddenly raised an eyebrow and smiled, saying, "Imperial Green isn't rare, it's just that I haven't discovered it yet. I'll take you to see it."

"Mr. Jiang, where are you taking me?"

"Jade Auction".

Jiang Qianhui remembered that there was a large jade auction today, and in her previous life, a top-quality imperial green jade was auctioned off.

In this life, let her pick up bargains and make money.

Jade auction scene.

This jade auction was divided into three sections. The western section featured highly anticipated rough jadeite and raw jade materials.

Each stall was crowded with people, mostly investors or processors. In recent years, the price of jade has continued to rise, attracting not only investors and jewelry processors, but also many people with capital to hoard raw jade, hoping to sell it for a big profit when the market price soars.

"Mr. Jiang, what are those people doing looking at these stones with flashlights?"

"Those people with those bright lights are trying to see if they can get a green light."

At this moment, Hu Yi, a jadeite rough stone merchant, saw Jiang Qianhui and said with a smile, "Two beautiful ladies, are you new to the business?"

Hu Yi looked like he was about to make them pay tuition, and Jiang Qianhui said, "How did you know?"

"The lady just said these are stones, or in the trade, rough stones. And in this business, it's all about first come, first served. You can't interfere while others are looking. This lady, however, squeezed in next to others as soon as she came in."

Zhao Youling looked even more embarrassed after hearing Hu Yi's words.

"It's alright, it's fate that you came to my booth. Let me briefly explain to you that there is currently no machine that can detect the inside of a jadeite rough stone. So, whether there is jadeite inside a rough stone, and what its grade is, no one knows until it is cut open. As the saying goes, one cut can make you rich or poor, so buying rough stones is called gambling on stones."

Zhao Youling had never been to a jade gambling site before, and she felt both curious and excited.

"I saw some stones... that were rough stones with jadeite visible on them, and some were just dark. Why don't we just buy the ones with jadeite?"

"What you see as green is called 'semi-gambling,' which means I cut a small part of the rough stone, called 'windowing,' or I grind off some of the outer skin, called 'scratching.' Whether it's windowing or scraping, the goal is to expose the green color of the rough stone, which naturally attracts people. This kind of semi-gambling will be more expensive than the kind that isn't windowed or scraped. Moreover, based on the exposed green, the buyer has to judge the quality and grade of the jadeite inside the rough stone, how much color there is, and what level of quality it is. For example, this piece."

Hu Yi picked up a stone and said, "This stone already has green on the cut surface. If you shine a light on it, the texture and clarity look pretty good. Generally, the texture, clarity, and color of jadeite are best near the core, but you might also cut it open and find nothing, ending up with nothing at all. So you have to make your own judgment. In the jade gambling business, both luck and a keen eye are very important."

Zhao Youling said with a surprised look, "You mean, this little bit of green, maybe this is the only part of the stone I can see."

"It's entirely possible; it's also possible that it contains glass-like jadeite."

Jiang Qianhui looked at the jeweler in front of her; he seemed very familiar.

In his previous life, a piece of glass-type jadeite appeared on his stall, which is the one he has now.

"How much do you want for this stone?"

"Two hundred thousand."

"What?! This piece of junk is selling for 200,000!"

Zhao Youling exclaimed in surprise, then immediately shut up.

She shouted so loudly that Jiang Qianhui took the rough stone from Hu Yi's hand and said, "I want this one."

When Zhao Youling saw Jiang Qianhui say she wanted to buy it, her eyes widened in surprise.

"Mr. Jiang, are you serious? If there's nothing inside, isn't it too much of a gamble to spend 200,000 on a worthless rock?"

"Don't worry, these are all glass-type jadeite! Come on, I'll take you to experience the difference between being rich or poor with a single cut!"

Jiang Qianhui paid the money and then took Zhan Youling to the stone cutting machine.

Qin, a bigwig in the jade industry, saw Zhan Yanxun arrive and walked over cheerfully, saying, "Yanxun, you're here! We're currently examining this batch of jade. Do you see any that catch your eye?"

Zhan Yanxun carefully examined the raw stones, at which point Qiao Weiwei picked up a stone and said...

"I think this rough stone, number 67, is good."

Old Qin said approvingly, "Yan Xun, the young girl you've brought along has a good eye. I also have my eye on this rough stone, number 67. Yan Xun, where did you find this young girl?"

“This is my secretary, Qiao Weiwei.”

Jiang Qianhui, carrying the raw stones she had just bought, and Qiao Weiwei were on their way to the stone-cutting machine when they happened to see this scene: Zhan Yanxun was leading Qiao Weiwei, chatting and laughing with Qin Lao, a big shot in the jade industry.

In their previous life, they did indeed buy the No. 67 rough stone, which indeed yielded top-quality jadeite, bringing them immense glory.

But the truly remarkable piece isn't the No. 67 rough stone.

The discovery of a top-quality imperial green jade at the exhibition shocked everyone, and she was determined to find that piece of jade later.

"President Jiang, President Zhan is here too. Isn't Qiao Weiwei a little too close to President Zhan? President Jiang, shall we go over there?"

“In the past, didn’t that affect our ability to make money? We went to cut stones.”

Jiang Qianhui took Zhao Youling's hand and walked towards the stone cutting machine.

As Jiang Qianhui walked over, Zhan Yanxun suddenly felt as if he saw Jiang Qianhui in the crowd.
