Chapter 60 The Rainbow Colored Jade

Bet.

The man had originally intended to only humiliate these ignorant uncle and nephew in front of Qu Bai and did not expect that Song Ye would suggest that,

“Kiddie, you want to use your yellow sand skin to gamble with my black sand skin?”

“Mmn, that’s right.”

Song Ye lightly replied him, as if it did not concern her.

The man suddenly laughed loudly and lifted his chin to speak in a domineering way:

“Alright, since you’re this reluctant to accept the fact, I shall just go along with what you said. But my time is precious, so what are you going to do if you lost?”

He won’t waste his time to play with him just like that. After thinking about it, he then said slowly:

“How about this. If you lost, just compensate me with the price of your stone, how’s that?”

Hearing that, the adults in the same area can’t help but frown. Song Ye can be said as being young and know nothing, but the gambling that this man suggested is obviously asking for more than what it’s worth.

Qu Bai had great impression of Song Ye and he did not want to break his deals with Yu Fu Jewellery just like that. So, he was about to open his mouth to stop this nonsensical gamble.

But, Song Ye was faster than he was and was even more ruthless than the man,

“Alright. If you are to lose to me, you can compensate me with the price of your stone.”

The man was stupefied and laughed soon after that,

“Fine, with Qu Shao as the witness, I hope that you won’t lose so badly that you cried out. Well, even if you have no money to pay, your uncle has.”

His words had directly pierced through Zhao Zhen’s heart. He had originally intended to stop it, but now looking at how much of a snob he was being, his rage also gradually roused up. He then directly refuted with an insincere smile,

“Since Song Ye is my nephew, of course I will be the one covering for him. Not to mention, we are not sure who is the winner yet, so it’s best to not say things in such a conclusive way.”

“Hmph, then we shall wait and see.”

The man coldly humph with a face that said he was going to win for sure.

Looking at how both sides acted, Qu Bai decisively chose to shut his mouth and watch how all of it will unfold as no one will complain about watching another drama. And now with him indirectly becoming the witness, he had also followed to become the judge in the venue.

On his way, he observed Song Ye being calm and relaxed, so he asked out of curiosity:

“You sure are confident. But don’t forget, if you lost, Yu Fu Jewellery will not only have to buy the stone, they also need to compensate as well.”

Towards a small jewellery shop, one million is not a small amount.

But Song Ye did not mind it,

“A man lives to their pride and holding myself in everytime is not my style. This one million, Yu Fu Jewellery can still pay for it.”

Not to mention, she was sure that she’s going to win the bet in the end and since the opponent wanted to give her money without her doing anything, there’s no reason for her to reject it as well.

On the other hand, Qu Bai who heard it was dumbfounded. He never thought that despite Song Ye being so young, she still has quite the unbreakable pride and his impression of the kid rises.

But when they enter the venue and looked at the raw stone chosen by both of them, Qu Bai and Zhao Zhen’s eyes can’t help but twitch and finally understood where did that man’s arrogance came from.

“Haha, alright. Since the items are bought, let’s begin to extract them.”

The man made his payment and impatiently wanted to extract his stone to slap Song Ye’s face.

No matter how regretful Zhao Zhen felt now, he had no choice but to continue his job and hoped in his heart that this stone that seemed to be of the lowest quality will have even a slightest bit of jade is inside so that he won’t be as humiliated.

Seeing Song Ye’s unchanged face, Qu Bai did not find it amusing and sat down on a chair to watch a stone extractor’s motion as he drank tea. In his heart, he was unable to discern if Song Ye is really an idiot or pretending to be one.

As the time passed noon, more and more people entered to choose their raw stone and found someone extracting a huge sized raw stone, to which even someone like Qu Shao was there watching it. In that moment, the news of it began to spread out and the place soon became crowded.

“Eh, I’ve seen that black sand stone this morning. It seems to be quite the good quality and to think that someone was able to bid it so quickly.”

“Yeah, I had also placed a bid but I was still one step slower. I heard that they are gambling and the opponent is using a rough material worth five hundred million to compete.”

“What? An idiot such as this exist? That yellow sand don’t seem that it can even extract something of green hue, so are they just trying to humiliate themselves?”

The crowd began to discuss and the discussion made the man on the stage even more proud.

Zhao Zhen stared at the extraction machine and broke into cold sweat. When no one was noticing, he sneakily asked the girl beside him,

“Song Ye, are you really confident?”

In the end, he knew nothing about Song Ye’s ability and had thought that Song Ye relied on her intuition to pick the stones. But who can be so sure of her intuition as it also has the chances of being wrong.

Song Ye didn’t mind it and leaned onto the back of the chair. When she heard that, she had only calmly nodded her head,

“Mmn, don’t worry.”

This fight is not only for the sake of her wanting to get back at the man.

Zhao Zhen was never able to see through Song Ye but he was impressed in regards to her ability in keeping herself calm at any time. And since it had turned out this way, he can only watch until the end.

The size of the stones for both side are the same and since they extracted the stones at the same time, the progress are the same as well.

At the same the stones were extracted, stone that were of snow white color can be seen. When they went five centimeters, the surface shell of the yellow sand began to crumble and caused the crowd to laugh mockingly. As for the black sand skin, the rock still appeared to be snow white.

At this time, Song Ye told the extractor to cut deeper. When they are done doing so, the yellow sand begin to fall out and the color of brown was revealed.

“Dark brown colored shell?”

Qu Bai stopped his motions and began to see the that something was off.

On the other side where the extraction of the black sand is occurring, it still remains a snow white colored stone even after having more than ten centimeters cut in.

The complexion of the man on the stage began to change but he still waited patiently.

On Song Ye’s end, the fact of a dark brown colored skin appearing beneath it had made the crowd feel astonished. This is because they have never seen a double layered shell and the difference in quality being this huge.

Seeing that the interest of the crowd was sufficiently captured, she then had the extractor cut it down for another thee centimeters. The extractor had originally hesitated but he was unable to go against Song Ye’s insistence and carefully cut it down. Out of his expectation, when he cut it down, a crystal clear light reflected into his eyes. It was so bright that he was unable to open his eyes.

“There’s a green hue!”

Someone under the stage shouted and a louder and confused voice sounded,

“What is that?”

The crowd also had their eyes blinded by it and when they looked carefully at it, a rainbow colored light can be seen, which had caused the crowds to walk up to take a look at it. At this time, Qu Bai as also shocked and placed his cup of tea on the table. He then walked up to it and carefully checked the surface of the jade. With a low voice, he said:

“Continue extracting it. Be careful.”

“Yes, Qu Shao.”

Upon receiving the order, the extractor began to polish it. The larger the hole to look through it was polished, the more astonished they became.

Wang Yu Tang who had received the news had also rushed in and gaped at the rainbow colored jade that can be seen from the hole,

“That’s a miraculous treasure. That is for sure the one and only treasure in this world!”
