Chapter 393: Senior Brother, Isn’t This Leftover from What We Picked?

She felt a little distressed at the loss of 5,000 yuan for no reason, but then looked at the happy trio not far away. Forget it; 5,000 yuan to buy their happiness was worth it.
Putting the thought aside, she subconsciously observed these raw stones seriously. She was gambling on whole stones, but they all looked the same, and there was no way to tell which one contained jade.
Chi Shuyan subconsciously channeled her spiritual energy as she touched the raw stones. She touched more than a dozen of them in a row, but didn’t feel anything at all. Just as Chi Shuyan was about to give up, she touched the last raw stone and a warm vapor entered her palm. Chi Shuyan was slightly stunned, and continued to feel the vapor. When she touched the other raw stones, however, she didn’t feel it.
Chi Shuyan had a vague guess in her heart, but she wasn’t certain. Nevertheless, she simply stuck her number on this stone!
She then looked at the medium-grade raw stones. The upper middle-grade stones varied in price, from hundreds of thousands to millions or even tens of millions.
Medium-grade stones mostly cost hundreds of thousands or millions. Low-grade stones were the cheapest, ranging from thousands to tens of thousands.
Chi Shuyan had been picking from the middle-grade stones. Thinking of her guess just now, she directly went over to the high-grade stones. She channeled her spiritual energy and probed them one by one. Soon, she touched a piece of jade that weighed a few kilograms, and a dense vapor entered her palm. It was as if her palm was soaked in this warm vapor, and it felt very comfortable.
Chi Shuyan didn’t even think about it and directly stuck her number on it. Coincidentally, she saw the man and woman from earlier. Yang Zhaoning snorted coldly and swept a glance over the stone Chi Shuyan had chosen, then gloated and suddenly said, “Senior Brother, isn’t this leftover from what we picked earlier? Someone actually chose it?”
Yang Zhaoning’s eyes were filled with smugness as her gaze swept over the stone which Chi Shuyan had chosen. It looked good on the surface, but she and her senior brother had taken a good look at it, and noticed that there was a faint trace of lichen growing on the outside; it was very likely that there was a streak of the lichen inside the stone as well.
Whatever the case, this raw stone cost millions. Later, she would watch as this woman lost everything.
Although they had been a little narrow-minded earlier, the more Zhang Feng looked at the young lady in front of him, the more he felt that she was beautiful, and wanted to give her a heads-up. “Fellow Daoist Chi, I advise you not to choose this raw stone. Although it looks good on the surface, based on my experience in stone gambling all these years, there’s a 90% chance that it’s a dud!”
Yang Zhaoning couldn’t wait for the woman in front of her to lose everything. Hearing her senior brother’s reminder, she pulled a face and immediately stopped him. “Senior Brother, what does her willingness to buy this stone have to do with us? You haven’t forgotten that this woman not only insulted me, but also our Longhu Mountain, right?”
Chi Shuyan couldn’t be bothered to waste time with the man and woman in front of her. She continued to circulate her spiritual energy as she touched the raw stones.
This was the first time Zhang Feng had been ignored like this. His face was a bit unsightly at that moment, and he snorted coldly. “If you don’t listen to me, you’ll lose out.”
Chi Shuyan rolled her eyes and glanced at them coldly as she continued to touch the raw stones. Yang Zhaoning’s gloating grew more and more obvious when she saw the woman pick the leftovers.
Yang Zhaoning’s eyes lit up when she thought of how the woman didn’t know anything when it came to stone gambling. She suddenly picked up an ordinary-looking black stone that was the size of two fists and was black all over; it didn’t look like it could contain raw jade at all. She deliberately said, “Miss Chi, this raw stone isn’t bad and it isn’t expensive. It’s about a few hundred thousand! If you buy this, I guarantee it’ll go up in price!”
