After all, the stone was at the corner. Ordinary people would not notice it easily, let alone someone like Gu Man who did not know anything.
Therefore, Huang Yue spoke generously to gain a good impression of Old Master Cui. “Sister, you can go first.”
Gu Man did not stand on ceremony with Huang Yue. She stood in front of the table and kept sizing up the stall.
Several times, her gaze landed on the stone that Huang Yue had taken a fancy to. She looked at Huang Yue, who was scared that she would pick the stone she liked, with a disdainful smile on her face.
Her gaze roughly swept across the entire stall. Then, she slowly reached out to the stone that Huang Yue had looked at first. Under Huang Yue’s anxious gaze, she reached out to the stone on the other side.
When Huang Yue saw this, she heaved a sigh of relief. A sincere smile appeared on her face, and she looked down on her.
She thought that Gu Man really knew how to look. She did not expect that she was just lucky. Although the stone she picked was indeed not bad, it was still inferior to hers.
She stood in front of the stall and pretended to think while looking at the entire stall. Then, she stretched out her hand and looked at the stone with a confident smile.
“I’ll take this.” She weighed the stone in her hand and couldn’t wait to come to Gu Man. “Let’s get Master to cut it open.”
She could not wait to strike Gu Man down. She wanted to see a defeated expression on her face. She wanted to see Old Master Cui look satisfied with her again.
She was just a person who did not know anything. What right did she have to be compared to her?
Gu Man looked at Huang Yue’s impatient expression and smiled. She handed the raw stone to the stone cutter beside her.
Huang Yue was already impatient. She handed the stone to the cutter first.
“Sister, I’ll cut mine first. I’m afraid I won’t be able to compare to you later. It’s embarra.s.sing.”
The master took the stone from Huang Yue’s hand. As soon as it was cut, there was jade.
The streaks inside the jade had not melted, giving off a texture like cooked glutinous rice. One could see that the interior of the crystal was low in transparency. It was glutinous jade.
It was indeed not bad to be able to acquire such quality of goods at such a small stall. Exclamations immediately sounded around.
“This young lady has good taste.”
“How can the young lady beside her compare to this? It’s difficult for such a small stall to have two good-looking people.”
Some people had already left because they were bored. They felt that it was definitely impossible for a second piece of good quality jade to appear in such a small stall.
The outcome was already decided.
When Old Master Cui saw this scene, he couldn’t help but break out in a cold sweat. Although he trusted Gu Man’s strength very much, how could such a small stall have multiple good-quality jade? It wasn’t a famous shop.
Almost everyone did not think highly of Gu Man, but their expressions were very calm as they casually handed the raw stone in their hands to the cutter.
The cutter did not take it to heart when he saw the raw stone. He only made a casual cut. However, when he saw the jade inside, his eyes instantly widened and his hands trembled.
“There’s, there’s jade!” The shout directly made those who were about to leave come over with surprised expressions.
Of course, the master would not let go of the opportunity of this publicity stall. He shouted loudly, “There’s jade, and it’s a gla.s.s type!”
These words instantly attracted everyone’s attention. Even those who did not watch the bet at the beginning could not help but surround them and sized up the scene curiously.
Among them, Huang Yue’s expression was even uglier. She almost could not believe that such an ugly and horrible stone could really contain jade.
Her fingertips dug into her palms. It was clearly her turnaround, but it had actually become Gu Man’s show. It shouldn’t be like this.
However, the genuine gla.s.s-type jade was exposed in front of them and there was no way to fake it. Gu Man had never left, and Old Master Cui was only a few meters away from the two of them. It was impossible for him to help.
“You lost.” Gu Man looked at Huang Yue and calmly explained this fact..
