Chapter 2064 [ Side Story 52: Premium Violet Jade ]
Upon hearing her slightly nervous words, the smile in si yiyan"s eyes grew deeper, and his deep-set eyes were filled with a brilliant glow.
"If there"s no good material, why don"t I bid for another good material to make up for Madam"s loss?" His smile was deep and filled with joy.
There were a few stone mines under the SI Corporation, and most of the Jade accessories that Wen Xinya had received were from them. Due to his family"s business and the fact that stone gambling was a popular activity in the upper-cla.s.s society, he was rather involved in stone gambling. As long as the raw stones that were being auctioned were of good quality, most of them would not escape his eyes.
Wen Xinya smacked her lips. &Quot; I"ll make up for my losses. But don"t blame me for being a spendthrift. &Quot;
Si yiyan couldn"t help but chuckle and said in a deep voice, " &Quot; it seems that Madam"s level of squandering still needs to be improved. I"m embarra.s.sed to say that you"re a prodigal. &Quot;
150 million was indeed not a small amount, but to him, it was a drop in the ocean.
He didn"t expect that this silly girl would think that he was a prodigal.
Should he tell her that her outfit today was already worth a billion Yuan and that he was actually more of a prodigal than her?
Just as Wen Xinya was about to reply, there was a commotion below. She looked towards the auction stage to see an old man preparing to cut open the stone.
The old man looked at their private room and asked, " "May I ask how this stone should be cut?"
"Just do it!" Si yiyan said calmly.
Although he said it was just a casual cut, the master did not dare to really cut it half-heartedly, so he used his many years of experience in cutting stones to observe the structure of the raw stone"s sh.e.l.l. After he had a clear idea, he began to cut.
The most exciting part of the stone gambling auction was the cutting of stones.
The moment the answer was about to be revealed, the excitement and nervousness was like a huge gamble. This gamble was even more fascinating than the Tiger machine, poker, and dice in the casino. It made the atmosphere in the room more exciting. Everyone"s eyes were fixed on the raw stone on the stage. They wanted to know what would come out of this raw stone that cost 150 million Yuan.
Wen Xinya looked at the calm but impetuous atmosphere in the room and said softly, " &Quot; I finally know why so many people are crazy about stone gambling. &Quot;
Si yiyan smiled without saying a word.
After the first cut, the stone was thick, but there was no purple.
There were more or less disappointed voices in the hall. Many people did not have high hopes for this raw stone.
Wen Xinya knew the importance of the first cut. She could not help but glare at si yiyan, thinking to herself that he was still as confident as he used to be.
Si yiyan sipped his tea and said, " "Continue to watch!"
Wen Xinya pursed her lips and looked towards the stage.
At this moment, the stonecutter cut the second piece.
Surprisingly, the second cut still didn"t produce purple, and there were many different opinions.
&Quot; I think there"s an 80% chance we won"t be able to get anything out of this spring material. It looks like the 150 million Yuan from the SI Corporation has gone down the drain. &Quot;
&Quot; so what? it"s just 150 million Yuan. The SI Corporation won"t care about it. It"s just ninth master si throwing money at his wife to have fun. &Quot;
&Quot; that"s true. All of the stone factories that the SI Corporation controls are old tricks. Mrs. Si can get any kind of Jade she wants, but she"s just throwing money at it for excitement. &Quot;
These words were true!
Wen Xinya snorted with laughter and looked at si yiyan. &Quot; "It seems that husband has a reputation of being rich and overbearing among the seven families and ten families!"
"Madam, I"m sorry!" Si yiyan said with a straight face.
After two cuts, no purple came out. Everyone was no longer interested in the raw stone on the stage.
At this time, the stonecutter"s third cut was done, and someone shouted, " "It"s purple!"
There was another uproar.
The stonecutter did not seem to be affected by the sudden clamor in the field and steadily cut.
On the unraveled surface of the stone was a rich and dazzling purple. Under the bright and dazzling light, it presented a rich and powerful beauty.
Everyone present was boiling with excitement.
&Quot; it"s really purple! It"s actually a gla.s.s royal purple! &Quot;
Everyone knew that the Royal purple was the n.o.blest color among Violet Jade. The Royal purple was just like the king"s Green in green jade.
&Quot; the color is thick and even, bright and eye-catching, pure and not evil, bright and pleasing to the eye, dazzling and eye-catching. The texture is fine, pure and flawless, crystal clear and watery, with a compelling spiritual energy. One look and you can tell that it"s from old pit. &Quot;

In addition to the quality and color, the quality of the Jade was also a standard to measure the quality of the Jade. As everyone knew, the longer the stone field was searched for, the better the quality of the Jade produced. The texture was pure and soft, the touch was delicate, and the color was bright and clear, pure and rich.
The ancients had once praised the characteristics of the jadeite produced by the old pit, such as "heavy but light,""hard but soft."
Wen Xinya was obviously shocked.
Si yiyan put down his teacup and said with a smile, " &Quot; we"re in luck. The Royal purple of the old-pit gla.s.s type is the best among the purple jade. Its value is probably no less than the king"s Green of the old-pit gla.s.s type. &Quot;
In the history of China, the king"s Green had always been known as the " King of Jade ". It was unshakeable because of the violet Jade. There were also countless top-grade Violet Jade. The ice type went for the second best and monopolized the reputation of Violet Jade, which was Purple Air from the East.
Even so, it could not be compared with the king"s Green.
This gla.s.s type royal purple-violet Jade was comparable to the king"s Green jade in terms of type, quality, and color.
Wen Xinya"s pupils constricted. &Quot; I don"t think I stepped on anything when I went out today. &Quot; she asked.
Her usual luck was neither too good nor too bad. It was just average, so she was still a little confused about the fact that she had opened such a top-grade Jade. It was as if she was dreaming.
Si yiyan knocked her forehead gently and said, " "If Grandpa knows about this, he might teach you a lesson."
"It hurts!" Wen Xinya rubbed her forehead and winked at him slyly. &Quot; "If you don"t tell Grandpa, how would he know?" Then, she tugged at his sleeve in an attempt to please him. &Quot; "You won"t tell Grandpa, will you?"
She had been punished by her grandfather more than once or twice because of her occasional vulgarities.
Being punished by her grandfather was definitely not a good experience.
However, at the mention of her grandfather, she really missed him. Then, she thought of the three little ghosts living in the mo family. She wondered if they were obedient and if they had caused any trouble for her grandfather.
Si yiyan could not help but burst into laughter. Of course, old Mr. Mo was not punis.h.i.+ng her.
Wen Xinya complained to si yiyan in dissatisfaction. &Quot; &Quot; I don"t know why, but Grandpa has been treating me more and more strictly these years. It"s so unreasonable. I"m already in my thirties and I"ve already had three children, but Grandpa still lectured me like a child. &Quot;
