Chapter 2063 Side Story 51:150 Million
Wen Xinya was not interested in stone gambling. Hence, she did not bid. Instead, she ate some fruit desserts and sipped on her tea while watching the show leisurely.
"Do you want to play a few rounds? Today"s raw stones are all pretty good, and the chances of getting good material are very high, so I"ll just take it as a test of my luck."
He didn"t care if he could get any good material, he didn"t lack the money anyway.
However, seeing that everyone was in high spirits, she was not interested, so she couldn"t help but say a few words to persuade her.
Wen Xinya thought to herself, it"s my first time partic.i.p.ating in such a stone-betting auction and it"s not a big deal for me to play a few rounds. I"ll just treat it as seeing the world and not competing to get any good material.
Instantly, she was a little moved.
At this moment, the first round of the auction had ended, and a new round of bidding began.
Looking at the crowd below, Wen Xinya"s emotions could not help but be affected and she began to feel a little restless.
A spring-colored raw material weighing 30 kilograms appeared on the auction stage. The originally enthusiastic auction site suddenly became a lot quieter.
"What the h.e.l.l, it"s actually spring material! The Yi Pavilion wouldn"t use this kind of material to make up for it, right?"
&Quot; this raw stone doesn"t look like it"s made of good material. The outer sh.e.l.l is a little rough, and the gravel on the surface is very dense. Although the pine flowers are a little purple, I may not be able to cut out a good material. &Quot;
&Quot; spring materials are too unpredictable and complicated. It"s hard to look at it, and it"s hard to get a pure violet. &Quot;
"I think this material is pretty good. There"s a good chance it"ll turn purple ..."
There were different opinions below. Most people did not think highly of this spring material. Although in the Jade world today, violet was precious because it was rare and had an unshakable position, it was worthless if it could not cut out the gla.s.s or ice type.
However, many people knew that the probability of finding an ice-type material in spring was low, let alone a gla.s.s-type material.
Of course, there were also some people who thought that this material was not bad. Since the Yi Pavilion had auctioned it, it meant that there was a high chance that this material would turn purple. They were willing to take a gamble.
The auctioneer in red smiled and said, " &Quot; this spring material has a 50% chance of being purple, 30% chance of being ice-type, and 10% chance of being gla.s.s-type. The starting price is one million, and each bid must be at least 100000. The bidding starts now. &Quot;
The auctioneer"s words caused an uproar.
He didn"t expect the Yi Pavilion to have such a high appraisal of this spring material.
As the auctioneer"s voice fell, there were people who couldn"t wait to bid. Although some people didn"t like this piece of material, there were still many people who were encouraged by the auctioneer"s words and fought to bid.
Wen Xinya stared at the raw stone and studied it carefully.
Si yiyan asked softly, " what"s wrong? You"re interested in this raw gemstone?"
Wen Xinya shook her head. &Quot; I"m just looking. &Quot; she answered.
She didn"t know much about stone gambling, and her knowledge of raw stones was relatively shallow, so she was just playing around.
Si yiyan did not say much, for he could tell that she wanted to bid.
At the scene, the bidding price for this spring material had already reached more than 40 million, and the price was still rising.
At this moment, Wen Xinya finally made a bid. &Quot; "50 million!"
A clear and melodious voice suddenly rang out, attracting the attention of many people. Everyone followed the source of the voice and could more or less guess who the bidder was. A trace of fear appeared in everyone"s hearts.
But even so, no one deliberately gave way, and the bidding became more and more intense.
During this time, Wen Xinya made a second bid. Her att.i.tude was nonchalant, and she did not seem to have the ambition to win.
The price of this spring dish had already been raised to 100 million.
"150 million!" Wen Xinya raised the bid again.
A single bid of 50 million, this kind of spending, even if the people present were not short of money, they could not help but be stunned. Everyone had already given up on the idea of continuing to bid.
Although there was a guarantee from the appraiser of the Lai Yi Pavilion, there was still a 50% chance of a variable. Not to mention the quality of zihou, although there was a 10% chance of a gla.s.s type stone, this probability was still a little small for such a raw stone that was full of variables. The price of 150 million Yuan was far higher than the value of this raw stone with zihou.
Of course, more importantly, the SI corporation"s bid of 50 million showed that they were determined to get this piece of spring material. Compared to a piece of spring material that was full of variables, everyone was obviously willing to do them a favor at little cost and not continue to compete with the SI Corporation.
Slightly stunned, Wen Xinya looked at si yiyan and asked, " "You got it just like that?"
She had bid for fun and did not really have any intention to win. She had just seen that everyone was bidding fiercely, so she had joined in. She had never thought that this would be the result.
Si yiyan couldn"t help but laugh. &Quot; yup, I"m going to cut it out soon. We"ll know what"ll come out of this raw stone very soon. &Quot;
He naturally knew that she was just playing around.
However, it was her first time partic.i.p.ating in this kind of gambling stone auction, so she did not know much about it. Her understanding of raw jadeite was also very shallow, so she did not have a good judgment when bidding.
The price of this spring material was already high after 100 million. Many people were weighing whether to continue bidding or give up.
To their surprise, a silly girl suddenly appeared and increased the bid by 50 million. At this point, most people gave up on continuing to bid, and a small number of people were unwilling to compete with her for the sake of the SI Corporation.
Wen Xinya suddenly felt a little vexed. &Quot; I wonder if I"ll be able to get any good material. &Quot; she said.
Most people did not have high hopes for this raw stone, so she was a little nervous. If she could not find any good material, wouldn"t the 150 million Yuan be wasted?
Although 150 million Yuan was nothing to her and Si yiyan"s status and wealth, it did not come from nowhere.
Si yiyan could tell that she was nervous. &Quot; I think this raw stone is pretty good. There"s an 80 to 90% chance that it"ll be of good quality. &Quot;
However, he wasn"t sure if he could cut out a piece of Jade that was equal to the transaction price.
"How can you be so sure? What if you can"t get any good material?"

Even with the development of science and Technology today, there was no way to judge whether a piece of raw jade was a precious Jade or a defective one. Everyone could only judge the quality of the raw stone based on a pair of discerning eyes, and guess whether the raw stone would produce a beautiful jade through rich experience.
It was precisely because of this mysterious and unknown tension and excitement that many people were eager to do this.
Wen Xinya could more or less feel the excitement of stone-gambling, to the point that her palms were sweating. She was a little excited and a little afraid about the next stone-cutting process. Because of the gambler"s mentality that had suddenly emerged in her heart, she did not have a good impression of such stone-gambling that cost a lot of money.
