160: Pick up a big leak
Yang Fan's spirits lifted when he saw Su Can was going to continue cutting the stone.
"You're lucky, you managed to cut out green from such a rotten rough stone, maybe you can do it again this time!"
"But this time you have to be more careful, don't be so aggressive, it's too much for my heart!"
Yang Fan said, still a bit scared when he thought of the aggressive moves Su Can made while cutting the stone earlier.
"Yes, yes, this young man is right, who cuts stones like you did just now? It was too reckless, it almost gave me a heart attack!"
The others also chimed in with complaints. Su Can's stone-cutting moves were too arbitrary and ruthless; one wrong cut and it could be ruined.
"Don't worry, I'll be more careful this time!"
Su Can chuckled, but his movements were not slow; he had already secured the rough stone.
And even as he spoke, he suddenly made his move.
With a hum, stone dust exploded, and a small portion of the stone was cut off.
His moves were steady, ruthless, and precise!
Everyone was stunned.
Yang Fan's body stiffened, and he became completely dazed.
Then he stiffly turned his head, his gaze slowly moving towards Su Can, and said in a bitter voice, "Didn't you just say you'd be careful?"
"Ah? I was careful. Last time I cut off a large portion in one go, this time I only cut off a small portion."
Su Can said as if it were the most natural thing in the world.
...Everyone's brains short-circuited.
Even the Fat Boss was dumbfounded. This guy was too reckless, wasn't he?
What decent person cuts stones like this?
It was a good thing these rough stones were basically worthless, otherwise, with one cut, he'd regret it.
"Huh? Something seems wrong. Look at that cross-section, it's glowing!"
Just as everyone was feeling a bit bewildered, a surprised voice suddenly rang out, pulling everyone back to reality.
"What? It's glowing? How is that possible?"
"Let me see, huh? It really seems to be!"
"Holy cow, what's going on? No way, he can't be that lucky again, can he? Did he find another leak?"
Everyone exclaimed in shock, making the boss and Yang Fan nervous as well, and they quickly leaned in to look.
Seeing this, Su Can quickly stopped his actions, afraid the machine would hurt the two of them.
"Holy cow, Su Can, you, you, this cut seems to have hit the jackpot again!"
"Oh my, oh my, this is incredible, it looks like a really amazing water type!"
"What water type?"
Surprised voices also came from the crowd, and with a whoosh, several gambling stone enthusiasts gathered closer.
The Fat Boss didn't even wait for everyone to ask; he immediately pulled out a flashlight and shone it on the stone.
As the light hit and shone through, the Fat Boss's body trembled, and he became somewhat dazed.
Yang Fan was also dumbfounded, muttering, "This light penetration, fine texture, clear halo—it's at least an Ice Jade!"
"Holy cow, Ice Jade?! I heard Ice Jade is very valuable!"
"Even the most ordinary Ice Jade bracelet starts at hundreds of thousands!"
"If it's High Ice Jade, it'll be three or four times that amount. Unbelievable, his luck is too good!"
"The key is that he clearly doesn't know anything, has no method, and yet with one cut, it's perfectly clean, without damaging the jade!"
"Who says it isn't? This is simply heaven opening its eyes for him!"
Everyone discussed animatedly, filled with envy and jealousy.
And this was before it was even fully cut out.
But no matter what, this 'leak' was definitely found!
At this moment, the Fat Boss felt as if he had swallowed a fly, because this rough stone was clearly a discarded one he had thrown on the ground.
It was also the one he had verbally given to Su Can.
Now, however, it had turned out to be a jackpot, and from the light, it was at least Ice Jade. He couldn't describe how awful he felt.
"Cut it, keep cutting it!"
Yang Fan became excited, as if he himself had hit the jackpot.
Zhao Hao, Zhang Chao, and the others had now forgotten their previous unpleasantness; instead, they felt a sense of shared glory.
As for Su Ran, she had long been looking at Su Can with stars in her eyes.
Buzz...
Su Can continued cutting the stone, still with somewhat aggressive movements, which made everyone's eyebrows twitch, afraid he would cut into the jade inside.
But fortunately, heaven was on their side; each time was a false alarm.
Everyone gradually came to believe in Su Can's incredible luck, otherwise, this phenomenon simply couldn't be explained.
Soon, the entire rough stone was cut out.
After the stone dust cleared and a rinse with clear water, a high-transparency jade the size of a rice bowl appeared before everyone.
"This is..."
Yang Fan stared at the jade that had been cut out, completely astonished and mesmerized.
He looked at the extremely high-transparency jade on the machine, with even half of it almost transparent, and could hardly believe his eyes.
"Hi-High Ice Jade..." Yang Fan stammered slightly.
The Fat Boss also had an incredible expression, somewhat disbelieving, "My goodness, it's actually High Ice Jade! No, no, the other half of this jade has reached the level of Glass Jade!"
Yang Fan, hearing this, took a closer look, took a deep breath, and no longer stammered, saying with immense excitement, "Holy cow! Su Can, your luck is too good! High Ice Jade, and half of it actually reached the level of Glass Jade, my goodness!"
"Your luck, even I'm jealous!"
Equally excited were several gambling stone enthusiasts watching nearby.
"Holy cow, High Ice Jade is already very expensive, and the other half actually reached the level of Glass Jade, this 'leak' is too big!"
"It's more than just big, it's ridiculously huge! It was clearly waste material quality, yet it yielded High Ice Glass Jade!"
"This is great, this is great! Su Can, you're amazing!"
Although Su Ran couldn't distinguish the differences and values, seeing everyone's reactions, she was overjoyed for Su Can.
"This luck, you really can't help but be impressed!"
Zhao Hao also shook his head in secret.
"What's the situation? Ice Jade is Ice Jade, why are there also High Ice Jade and Glass Jade? Is there a big difference among them?"
Some people knew the ropes, while others were just watching the excitement. Those watching the excitement wanted to know the details and couldn't help but ask questions.
Those who knew the ropes all smiled, seizing the opportunity to proudly explain to the onlookers, "Ice Jade is a type of jade, and Ice Jade also has many subcategories!"
"That's right, Ice Jade has many subcategories, and I can't explain them all to you in a short time, so let me put it this way!"
"An ordinary Ice Jade bracelet basically starts at one hundred thousand!"
"The cheapest High Ice Jade starts at five hundred thousand, and Glass Jade basically starts at a million!"
After the 'explanation' from several jade enthusiasts, the surrounding people all gasped, their expressions showing shock.
"So, that means this handsome guy has really hit the jackpot. This one piece of jade must be worth millions?"
"Millions? That's ridiculous, isn't it? Such a large piece of jade, with its thickness and height, is enough to carve out several bracelets."
"That's right, the High Ice Jade and Glass Jade can each yield two bracelets. For the two High Ice Jade bracelets, with this quality, each bracelet would be at least eight hundred thousand."
"The other two Glass Jade bracelets, judging by their clarity, could at least sell for one million five hundred thousand each, so two would be three million!"
"Four bracelets combined, that's four million six hundred thousand! Plus the leftover material, which can make many ring faces, peace buckles, earrings, or cabochons, after deducting processing fees, five million is easily achieved!"
