543: Jackpot Nonstop - 1

Jackpot Nonstop - 1

A few experts from the Lucky Cloud Pavilion surrounded the lapidary with torchlights in their hands and began giving him instructions.0

The color of the Imperial Jade in front of them was getting brighter and brighter under the intense light.

"It… It's really Imperial Jade. Look at the color. It's so pretty!"

"How is this even possible? Does this mean that Chu Yunsheng has lost the bet?" 

"Let's not jump the gun. Have you forgotten that the Wu Family thought they'd gotten Imperial Jade as well before it was revealed to be a worthless stone? I guess we should keep watching for now." 

"That's right. Let's not count the chickens before they hatch."

Mumbling sounds began to spread across the crowd.

Bzzt…

Dust and debris were flying in the air. With the help of the group of experts, more and more green appeared before the crowd's eyes, making them feel agitated.

"Oh god, please tell me that I'm not hallucinating. Is that a whole chunk of Imperial Jade I'm seeing? I've never seen such a huge piece of Imperial Jade before!" 

"This is impossible. Mining Area C has been widely known for its lack of high-grade jade stone, so how could it possibly be Imperial Jade?"

"Looks like the Lu Family just hit pay dirt! Not only did they get Imperial Jade, but they didn't have to pay a single cent for it!"

The Wu Family and Chu Yunsheng's faces were grim when they heard what the crowd had said. 

Wu Zhiheng was dumbstruck and did not know what to say at all. They had spent 300 million for nothing, while the Lu Family had earned a bucket of money. Chu Yunsheng stared at the Imperial Jade in disbelief.

"I've been working in the stone gambling industry my whole life, and the last Imperial Jade I saw was only the size of a fist. After being processed, it was sold for five million at an auction."

Everyone gasped upon hearing what the expert had said. If a fist-sized piece of Imperial Jade could be sold for such a high price, they did not dare imagine how much the massive piece of Imperial Jade in front of them was worth. 

"I've never seen such a huge piece of Imperial Jade before, so I can't estimate its price either."

"This is impossible! It can't be Imperial Jade! I know it. How could you guys lie just to get some publicity? In all my years of stone gambling, I have never seen more than 100 pounds of Imperial Jade before. Have you guys mixed up Imperial Jade with albite jade?" Chu Yunsheng snarled, his eyes red around the rims.

"Good jade is translucent, vibrant in color, and smooth to the touch. The color of this piece of Imperial Jade is vibrant and rich, so it's definitely not albite jade.

"Mr. Chu, with all due respect, you shouldn't denigrate the Lucky Cloud Pavilion every time you don't get the jade that you want. If my memory serves me right, the best jade you've gotten in the past two years is Lighter Imperial Jade. Just because you've never seen 100 pounds of Imperial Jade before, it doesn't mean it doesn't exist, alright?" 

Although this Imperial Jade could elevate the name of the Lucky Cloud Pavilion to a whole new level, there was no way they would tell lies for no reason, as it would not do their reputation any good. Thus, the experts and other staff of the Lucky Cloud Pavilion were displeased with Chu Yunsheng's attitude. 

There were a lot of things going on Chu Yunsheng's face. One second earlier, his face had been pale from rage, and a second later, it turned red from embarrassment. He even took a step forward to study the Imperial Jade before admitting defeat.

Jin Can was jumping up and down in excitement. "Imperial Jade! This is Imperial Jade! I've never seen such a massive piece of Imperial Jade before! This is incredible! We need to take a picture to record this historical moment!"

Lu Jingqing nodded but did not say anything. This was his first time seeing such a large piece of Imperial Jade as well, and although he seemed rather calm on the surface, the upward curve of his lips showed that he was in a good mood right now.

"Ms. Fu, I wonder if you're going to bring this Imperial Jade back or sell it right now?" the expert asked.

A few men then chimed in. "Please name your price, Ms. Fu. We really want to buy this Imperial Jade from you."

Fu Zhi looked at Lu Jingqing, who was contemplating this. He had not brought a lot of men with him this time, but although there were some risks to transporting this Imperial Jade back to their country, he felt that it would not be a big problem. 

However, since most of the people that wanted to buy the Imperial Jade were tycoons and bigshots in the jewelry industry, Lu Jingqing thought for a moment and said, "I'm going to bring half of it back to my country, and I can sell the other half to you guys." 

The group of people shared a glance and could see the delight in each other's eyes.

Jewelry made of Imperial Jade was the favorite of women from wealthy families. Therefore, if they really could get half of the Imperial Jade, they could actually make a fortune out of it. 

"Thank you very much, President Lu. If you need our help in the future, just let us know and we will do our best to help you," some of the people that wanted to buy the Imperial Jade from Lu Jingqing said. 

Then, Jin Can chimed in, "Should we pick some more jade stones later? After all, I don't think you can produce enough jewelry with only half of this Imperial Jade."

Just as Lu Jingqing was about to say something, a voice rang out while they were speaking. "Master Chu, where do you think you're going? Have you forgotten about the bet?"

Everyone then turned their eyes to Chu Yunsheng, who had been planning to run away.

Chu Yunsheng had intended to run away while everyone was focused on the Imperial Jade.. He had not expected that the head of the Long Family would be looking at him the entire time. He froze, and sweat began to ooze from his forehead.
