No one would have thought that a jadeite stone, which could not possibly produce jadeite, would actually rise in gambling!
Pemoreover, judging from the side we see now, it should be a water jadeite, and the quality is really not low. You know, in recent years, when old pit gla_s jadeite is almost extinct, water jadeite is already considered to be the very best jadeite.
What's more, this was a water-grain jadeite cut from a ruined stone!
Everyone had to exclaim that this kid's luck was really……
Especially Billy and Mima, who had been sneering, were green in the face that a poor kid who seemed to them to be nothing more than a vegetable seller had actually gambled on a water variety jadeite!
On the other hand, Louisiana's mouth was wide open as she stared blankly at the calm Wendell, unable to believe that this poor boy had casually bought a scrap stone and turned it into a treasure!
What made it even more difficult for Louisiana to accept was the reaction of some of the other onlookers.
Seeing the piece of jadeite in Wendell's hand that had not yet been completely removed, some jadeite jewellery merchants' eyes instantly lit up, as this was an extremely fine jadeite when gla_s jadeite was extinct.
1 merchant immediately said impatiently, "This little brother, judging from the current quality, you don't need to keep polishing it, how about this, I'll offer you 200, 000, how about you sell it to me?"
" hundred thousand?" Upon hearing this price, Louisiana's heart immediately felt as if she had been ruthlessly seized, a poor boy had made hundred thousand in the twinkling of an eye?
"I say, Old Silvaang, your hundred thousand is too shabby, isn't it?" A merchant next to him picked up, obviously familiar with the previous merchant, he turned his head to Wendell and said, "Lancettle brother, I'll offer hundred and fifty thousand, as you know, your piece of raw stone is too small in size, if you continue to cut it, it's likely that the bet will collapse, this price I'm offering is already very reasonable!"
"Hey, Mr. Lanceu, you are such a big company, and you are still grabbing freat from us small individuals, that's unkind!" The first boss couldn't help but complain.
Trupay, who had not spoken in the crowd, opened her mouth to speak as well, but seemed to have considered something, and she swallowed back the words that were on her lips.
No matter how these merchants offered their prices, Wendell just shook his head and smiled. Immediately afterwards, he started the polishing machine again and continued polishing.
1 side of the stone was already polished out, revealing the green jadeite, and then he continued to polish the second side.
Although it was Wendell's first time to cut a stone and he had no experience, it was reasonably easy to destroy the jadeite by polishing it like this, but Wendell was different from others, he could clearly see the jadeite in the original stone, so he polished it without any difference.
At this time, the other merchants could also see that this young man was definitely not satisfied with the price of $200, 000 to $300, 000, he wanted to continue gambling until the entire jade head was taken out.
Within a few muments, the stones around the original stone were polished off and a crystalline jadeite, half the size of a fist, appeared in front of the crowd.
At this mument, everyone's eyes went straight.
Although this piece of jadeite was only of the water variety, however, there was not the slightest impurity in it, and the whole piece of jadeite was so well integrated that it almost caught up with the gla_s variety.
What's more, judging from the size of the jadeite, it weighed almost 4 or five catties, and according to the market price, it would cost millions!
In a flash, those bosses gathered around began to bid.
"Little brother, one million, I'll take this piece of jade!" A boss said impatiently. With gla_s-type jadeite extinct, a piece of water-type jadeite like this was enough to hold up the door.
"1 million one hundred thousand!"
"1 million three hundred thousand!"
……
Lancestening to those merchants bidding, Louisiana just stared at the smiling young man surrounded by people, her face changed dramatically, but she didn't know what she was thinking.
Billy and Mima, on the other hand, likewise changed their faces. Especially Billy's face became ugly. He knew that he was also in the jadeite business, just not a big one. This piece of jadeite was enough to hold up his facade.
Therefore, Billy was actually eager to follow the bidding.
However, remembering his sneering at Wendell earlier, he knew that this piece of jadeite had no chance with him, and could not help but secretly regret it in his heart.
Mima, on the other hand, was psychologically sour and muttered, "What are you tugging at? It's just a blind cat that met a dead rat, it's only a million dollars, my husband has plenty of money!"
"Mrs. Elam, should we make a bid?" Old White, who was standing in the crowd, could not help but ask when he saw that Trupay also showed a heartfelt look.
Trupay shook her head slightly and said, "Forget it, such a small piece will still not alleviate our shortage of greats, it's better to take another look!"
Old White then nodded his head and asked no more questions.
Instead, a middle-aged man in his fifties standing next to Old White said in a low voice, "Mr. Elam, I see that this young man seems to be very insider."
Trupay nodded and said, "That's right, look at the magnitude of his cutting and rubbing of the stone, he is almost sticking to the edge of the jadeite, without a lot of experience, it is impossible to have such a precise technique."
"Mr Elam, I think we should talk to this young man later, or follow him." The middle-aged man said, "He must not be satisfied with just buying this piece, they will definitely continue to buy later, so if there is a suitable jadeite, let's jump ahead of the bidding and buy it first."
"No need." Trupay smiled faintly and said, "I know this young man, I will talk to him directly later."
The middle-aged man was stunned, and then he smiled, since he knew him, it would be much better, at least he could buy it first at the same price.
Just as a few people were talking, the jadeite in Wendell's hand had risen to one million seven hundred and fifty thousand, which was considered a very high price. This was the price offered by a boss with a Onama accent, and when the others saw this price, they all stopped going up.
"Little brother, how about it, one million seven hundred and fifty thousand, sell it to me, right?" The Onama boss asked.
Wendell said, "Of course I can sell it to you, but I want a cash cheque, or cash as well."
He had to continue selling other raw stones, and he couldn't do it without money on him.
The Onama boss immediately nodded his head and said boldly, "No problem, I'll write you a cheque right now, haha! But, little brother, if you have a bank account, I'd better transfer the money to you directly."
"Can I transfer money even here?" Wendell asked.
"Oh, that's of course, not only can you transfer money directly here, you can also transfer money directly at all the stalls, it's very convenient!" The Onama boss laughed.
Wendell suddenly blushed a little, after all the trouble, it turned out that he had made a mistake and mistakenly thought that he wanted to buy in cash at this trade fair. In fact, if you think about it, there are some huge raw stones, I am afraid that millions of dollars are possible, if you use cash, it is a bit too exaggerated.
Wendell chose to transfer the money and reported the account to the Onama boss.
When both sides finished the transaction, the others saw that there was no more chance, so they left.
"Sh_t-lucky brat!" Billy cursed and turned around indignantly to leave.
With Wendell's ears, he naturally heard Billy's words, and he only smiled slightly before leisurely strolling in front of the other stalls. To him, Billy's insults were actually just his last struggle before he died, just like a gra_shopper after the autumn, he couldn't hop around for a few more days.
"Ee? General Manager Elam?" Wendell just turned around and immediately saw Trupay not far away looking at himself with a smile on her face, beside her were Old White and a middle-aged man.
"Mr. Silva, you really have great eyesight, such a recognized waste stone can be turned into treasure in your hands, it's really remarkable!" Trupay said with a smile, her voice seemed to have an indescribable charm that soothed people's ears.
Wendell waved his hand with a smile and said, "It's just great luck!"
"Oh, in this business of gambling stones, eyesight and experience are certainly important, but luck is also essential, and the great or bad luck directly affects the result, Mr. Silva's great luck is the biggest advantage!" Trupay's voice was soft, as if it was a small hand, constantly plucking the other party's heartstrings.
Wendell smiled faintly and didn't say anything.
Wendell was not surprised by Trupay's appearance here, after all, he knew that Trupay ran a jewellery company and would definitely come to such a jadeite and jade trade fair.
"Mr. Silva, you're going to buy the original stones next?" Trupay asked with a smile as she walked over.
"Not necessarily, it depends!" Wendell snorted, he didn't want others to notice him, so he spoke a little vaguely.
Trupay seemed to have seen what Wendell had in mind and said with a smile, "Mr. Silva, I have an unrequited request, I don't know……"
"No problem, as long as it's something I can do, Mr. Elam, just say it." Wendell smiled and said: It's like this, Mr. Silva should also know that I have opened a jewellery company." Trupay deliberated on her words for a while before continuing, "But then, recently, because of the tight supply of greats, it has made it a bit difficult for the company to run. What I mean is that Mr. Silva is so lucky today, if you come across another jade of better quality, can you give me priority in selling it to me at the same price?"
"Oh, so in that case." Wendell smiled and nodded, "This is certainly no problem, just that, I can't guarantee that I will be able to gamble up next, so……"
Trupay gathered her long hair and smiled, "That's natural."
"Then let's put it this way, I won't bother Mr. Elam." Wendell smiled and turned around to continue walking towards the other stalls.
Wendell was carrying a bank card of over one million dollars, compared to the sixty thousand dollars or so he had when he first arrived here, his heart was instantly fuller and he dared to bargain with the owner for those larger raw stones.
To be continued....
