303: Chapter 0303: Skylight 303: Chapter 0303: Skylight Master Jiang and Master Chen both looked at Qin Yu, who smiled and nodded, indicating that they could start the stone cutting.
This time, Qin Yu did not personally select the raw stones, as defeating Hu Zhuoqing was a foregone conclusion.
Master Jiang randomly chose a piece of raw stone, and Qin Yu knew there was nothing in it.
As expected, the first stone Master Jiang chose copsed.
Qin Yu appeared very calm about it.
However, others did not see it that way.
“Old Hu, I told you, there’s really no need to be depressed.
Stone gambling is stone gambling, with nine out of ten bets leading to losses.
It’s quite good that you’ve managed to increase the value of two out of your five stones!
I guess Master Qin’s remaining three stones will surely all copse.”
Upon hearing his friend’s words, Hu Zhuoqing’s expression softened a bit.
If it turned out as his old friend had said, and the remaining three stones all copsed, he could save some face.
That would prove that Qin Yu’s stone gambling skills were just average and that it was only luck that led him to the Stone King.
Having been embarrassingly wrong before, Hu Zhuoqing did not dare toe forward and mock openly this time; he decided to wait until thest moment.
It has to be said, Master Jiang was quite effective and managed to pick out the only stone without jade in it from the three stones!
Without any surprises, this stone also copsed.
The consecutive failures made many bosses look at Qin Yu differently, their eyes no longer filled with enthusiasm; they shared the same thoughts as Hu Zhuoqing.
Some bosses started whispering among themselves, “It seems Master Qin isn’t so remarkable after all—two consecutive stones copsed.
He’s not much better than Master Hu.”
“After all, Master Hu is an old hand at stone gambling in Luo City, and it feels more reliable to gamble with him.”
…
Hearing the bosses’ discussions, Su Ziyan felt very guilty.
She shouldn’t have been so willful and chosen four stones.
Otherwise, Qin Yu wouldn’t be questioned.
Su Ziyan quickly said with a bright smile, “Gentlemen, I was the one who chose these four stones, not my dear Qin Yu.
It’s very normal for them to copse.”
“Don’t worry, sweetheart, how could they possibly copse?
With your luck, they will definitely increase in value.”
Is Master Qin acknowledging what thedy said?
Many bosses shook their heads.
A man should take responsibility; how could he let a woman bear the consequences of failure?
Any respect the bosses might have had for Qin Yu disappearedpletely.
Hu Zhuoqing’s mood gradually improved.
However, to be cautious, Hu Zhuoqing did not jump out and say anything, though a long-lost smile appeared on his face.
The process today was a bit tortuous, but he might end upughingst after all today!
Hu Zhuoqing folded his arms, waiting for the final oue to unfold.
Unfortunately for Hu Zhuoqing, he did not get to see the ideal final oue he had in mind, as the next stone Master Jiang picked up was the one containing water-type jadeite.
“Master Jiang, just open a 2.5 centimeters deep window,” Qin Yu reminded with a smile.
Master Jiang nodded in agreement.
The other bosses and gambling stone masters shook their heads—such arge stone, with just a 2.5 centimeters window?
How big must the jade within be?
It was simply ridiculous.
However, no one mocked Qin Yu, as they had lost interest in ridiculing apetitor who relied on a woman to shoulder his mistakes.
He was not worth their breath.
Master Jiang was obedient and strictly followed Qin Yu’s instruction, opening a 2.5 centimeters deep window on the stone.
Then Master Jiang was stunned!
He saw a thick white fog!
The strong movement of the fog indicated a huge amount of jade within the stone!
“There’s fog!
Master Qin, should we continue cutting?” Master Jiang suppressed his excitement, turning his head to look at Qin Yu.
