The area of raw jade stone in the mall.
This was the most popular place in the mall. Yutian County was famous for the raw jade stone, so the people of Yutian County naturally had great enthusiasm for it.
Gambling stone was a very addictive thing. Many people were addicted to it, hoping that one day they would get rich on gambling stone.
In many years of gambling stone, many people in Yutian County got rich relying on gambling stone. If they were lucky, they would have not to worry about food and clothing for this life.
"Gambling stone is not difficult. I have always stayed with Leonardo for so long, I have known how to identify it, if now I quick working for Leonardo and have gamble on stone, I can earn enough money for the rest of my life." Jaxon said proudly.
He usually followed Leonardo to deal with some problems about raw jade stone, but his job was to record and arrange shipping.
The raw stone were selected by Leonardo’s experienced man. Jaxon followed them and learnt a bit of it.
If he really gambled on stone, with his low level, he would lose all his money.
"Wow, Jaxon, you are awesome. Let’s buy a raw stone, maybe we can make a big fortune." Flora said with shining eyes.
Jaxon was immediately embarrassed. He just bragged and didn't expect Flora was serious.
Although the price of raw jade stone was much cheaper than jade, but it was not cheap. The one with good color and lustre seemed to have a big chance, but it costs hundreds of thousands.
But he had already said it out and it would be hard to take it back.
What was more, Casey and Edith were still here, so he could not let Flora lose face. Since Flora said that she wanted to buy a raw stone, he could only agree.
Four people walked to an exhibition area for raw stones. Flora and Jaxon seriously looked at the raw stone and wanted to pick out a piece of treasure.
Casey took a rough glance at the raw stones and said with a smile, “The color and density of the stones are bad, basically they are not good material. It is estimated that mall is too attract those with amateur level. The stones with good materials would not have been placed here, but sold by auction."
Hearing that, Edith widened her eyes, looking at Casey, “Do you know it?"
Casey said with a smile, “I studied it when I was idle. Jade is as same as antiques. My perspective on stone is as good as antiques."
Edith knew Casey’s attainments in antiques. Last time, the first treasure master in J City lost to him, so it could be told that Casey had a high level.
Now he said his level of on jade was the same as that on antiques, Edith did not doubt it.
She was just curious how many skill did her man have.
In a short while, Jaxon took a fancy to a stone with good color. There was green light on the surface on the stone, which was a sigh of existence of jade.
Jaxon looked around and picked it up after confirming no one was paying attention to this stone.
"Flora, we are lucky, this stone is a jade. See, from the surface, you can see the color inside, there must be jade!" Jaxon was excited.
Flora did not know about time, but hearing Jaxon said so, she widened her eyes.
"But honey, since this stone is a jade, why didn't those people notice this stone?" Flora asked.
Jaxon immediately laughed and said, “This stone has placed here just now, no one has come over. We are lucky and we happened to see it. If it is a jade, we can sell it for millions."
At that time many people noticed the stone in Jaxon’s hand. They approached to observe it and immediately began to praise.
"Sir, you have good perspective, this stone must be a jade."
"Yes, the skin is green. This kind of stone is rare. Sir, do you want it? If you don’t want it, can I have it?"
"I'm not so lucky. I wish I had seen this stone."
...
Listening to the praise of all, Jaxon believed this stone must be a jade, so he was pleased.
Casey took a look at the stone and noticed that although the stone was green, the color was different from the normal jade.
Because Casey understood well about stone gambling, he knew for one kind of stone, the businessman fabricate a color to deceive customers.
It made a shallow hole in the raw stone, injected green dye and sealed it, which made people believe it was green from the surface.
This stone was clearly a colored stone.
People present were at the amateur level, so they didn’t know about the truth and thought Jaxon was lucky.
"This stone is not good material. You'd better not buy it." Casey said.
Jaxon looked at Casey in scorn and said, “What do you know? You only bought your wife a processing bag, how can you know which stone is good. I followed Leonardo for so long, I can tell which stone is good."
He immediately turned to the staff and said, “How much is it, I will take it."
Seeing this, the staff immediately ran over and said with a smile on his face, “Sir, you have a good perspective. This stone is of the most opportunity to be a jade on the field today. If you want it, I will give you a discount, which is 300,000."
Hearing it cost 300,000, Jaxon hesitated, after all it was a lot, which was equivalent to his half a year's wages.
Casey found Jaxon was determined to buy this stone, he reminded, “This stone is not as good as you think, if you buy it, you will regret."
