Ye Fei pointed to the apprentice, let him help himself to cut the stone.Suddenly, all the people present, burst out laughing, very harsh, full of sarcasm.
The face of the apprentice turned red, pointed to his own nose, repeatedly shook his head, "Let me cut? No, no, I can"t."
"What"s wrong? Do you not finish your apprenticeship? Or your master does not allow you to cut?"
Ye Fei slightly frowned, he just clearly saw this apprentice could cut the stone, but now he evaded.
"I am his master, I I didn"t tell him not to help you, unlucky boy, since this guest let you help him cut, now you should help him."
The smile on master Xing"s face was odd.
"Unlucky boy?"
Ye Fei was astonished, why this cutting master called him unlucky boy?
"Hah, that young man doesn"t call others help him, just chooses this unlucky boy help him, he really has a good eyesight."
"The unlucky boy is actually quite nice and kind, but he has a bad luck, any good stones will be cut broken by him."
"Obviously he is possessed. he really has a bad luck."
The gamblers were talking about this unlucky boy, their eyes were full of sarcasm.
From the gambler"s words, Ye Fei understood this "unlucky boy" was his nickname, because everyone thought he had a bad luck.
After all, gamble on stones was a gamble, the gamblers were also superst.i.tious, they would find the cutting master with a good luck.
The unlucky boy was the apprentice, though he finished his apprenticeship, he still had a bad luck, after he cut a few stones, the gamblers called him the unlucky boy.
The unlucky boy was honest and did not refute. Unexpectedly, ever since then, he never cut the stone to the jade.
Now no one found this unlucky boy to cut the stone, he could only do some odd jobs.
"I"ll let him help me to cut!"
Ye Fei had a sharp insight, so he insisted to let this boy help him.
"Unlucky boy, you go to help him now."
Xu Tongda became very happy, he knew this boy was unlucky, it was impossible for him to cut the stone to the jade.
At first, this boy was a little hesitated, but heard the words of the boss, he walked to the cutting machine, looked at the stones, said to Ye Fei, "These stones are not bad, let me rub them first."
"I don"t know the procedure of cutting stones, it"s up to you."
Ye Fei handed these stones to the boy.
The boy nodded with serious look.
The so-called rub stones, was to cut off a piece of stone skin first, then saw if the green could show up, if the green couldn"t show up, then changed a direction to cut another piece of stone skin, if after cut a few directions, the green still couldn"t show up, it meant this stone was not good, the probability of the jade would become very low.
"Cut this one first."
Ye Fei pointed to the stone which was chose by Lin Qingwan.
"This one, it"s not so good."
The boy murmured, although he was very young, but he also had a good insight, when he saw this stone, he just knew this stone was a common stone, the green couldn"t show up.
However, Ye Fei insisted to cut this first, so the boy did not say anything, chose a direction, started to cut, the sound of cutting machine was shrill, a piece of stone skin was cut down, people stared at the stone, saw nothing green, from the appearance, this stone was completely a common stone.
When the boy cut this stone again, the green still didn"t show up, then it was the third time he cut this stone, but there was no improvement.
Seeing this situation, people began to whisper to laugh at Ye Fei. The face of Lin Qingwan was a little pale, once this stone was only a stone, then she would lose 1.6 million.
This money, for Lin Qingwan, was not too much, but she still felt sad, so she walked over to hold Ye Fei"s arm, whispered, "Ye Fei, you clearly know this stone is a common stone, why not resolutely stop me! It is money, that"s equivalent to a year"s salary." Her arm was shivering.
Ye Fei patted her arm, smiled and said, "Don"t be nervous, it just the first stone, it"s OK."
The words of Ye Fei, like a warm ripple, made Lin Qingwan calm down.
"The first one stone loses more than 1 million, think about other stones." Xu Tongda hummed.
As the cutting progresses, people began to shake their heads, a stone worth eight hundred thousand, almost had been cut one fifth, the green still didn"t show up, it was estimated that this stone was a common stone.
At the moment, the boy was also a little panic, if he still couldn"t cut this stone to the jade, he would really lose confidence to this job.
The boy turned around and talked to Ye Fei about this stone, Ye Fei waved his hand, did an action of downward chopping, "Split straight from the middle."
The boy nodded, said, "OK."
The shrill voice of the cutting machine sounded again.
Everyone was holding their breath, even more nervous than Ye Fei.
Suddenly...
A strange voice sounded.
The boy hurriedly stopped the cutting machine, had a look, found that the grinding wheel of the cutting machine incredibly was broken.
"What happened?"
"It"s so strange.
Why the grinding wheel was broken? Its hardness was very good.
The gamblers around were also surprised and surrounded.
An old master went to have a look, repeatedly shook his head, "Inside the stone is a lump of iron. No wonder the grinding wheel is broken."
Hah...
In an instant, there was a burst of laughter in the courtyard.
One of the gamblers patted the shoulder of the boy, "You"re really great, cut the stone to the lumps of steel, hah."
"Inside this stone incredibly is a lump of iron, It is worthless."
Master Xing came to have a look, shaking his head, looking at his apprentice, his eyes were full of disappointment.
The green didn"t show up, Lin Qingwan became much sadder.
