Chapter 1248: Chapter 1245: Blindman’s Stone Gambling
Not judging by the light? So that’s the aning behind this shop’s na!
Huo Sining suddenly realized, no wonder she saw this phrase hanging on the shop’s plaque when she first entered.
Mr. Hou’s years of experience have given him the unique skill of gambling stones using only his hearing, which is why he has such strict and peculiar requirents for every custor who enters the shop.
“That’s fine, but I’m wondering if there’s a ti limit for selecting the raw material?”
Huo Sining was quite concerned about this. She possessed the Heavenly Eye Skill, an almost miraculous cheating ability. Although the warehouse was pitch black, it posed no obstacle for her. As long as she activated her Heavenly Eye, all the raw materials here would be revealed before her. Therefore, she did not see judging by the light as a difficult problem.
However, she was struggling to make out the warehouse situation at the mont; the piles of tens of thousands of brick materials made her sowhat dizzy.
Brick materials are essentially waste, with a much lower probability of cutting a rise compared to ordinary stone gambling materials. Choosing a piece of raw material that could produce jadeite from such a pile is no simple matter. If the shop’s stone gambling conditions also include a ti limit, she would have to weigh her options carefully.
“Miss Huo can rest assured about this. As long as the raw material you select can cut a rise, there’s no ti limit.”
Badasang, seeing Huo Sining’s confident look, also breathed a sigh of relief. It seed his judgnt was quite good, as Miss Huo did not retreat due to Mr. Hou’s stringent conditions.
No ti limit, perfect. Huo Sining nodded without any hesitation and walked towards the vast pile of brick materials.
Amongst the warehouse full of brick materials, Huo Sining just wanted to pick out one piece that could produce green jadeite. However, after touching almost a hundred pieces of raw material, she found they were either white fiber or green skin, with none capable of producing jadeite.
Feeling a little frustrated, Huo Sining realized Badasang hadn’t lied to her. Mr. Hou indeed had skills, and this pile of brick materials had probably been sorted through countless tis, leaving only waste materials. Finding a piece here that could cut out jadeite would indeed require so effort.
With tens of thousands of raw materials, if Huo Sining had to inspect each piece one by one, she doubted she had the patience for it.
Now, Huo Sining’s Heavenly Eye Skill could directly scan all objects within a radius of tens of ters. Although what the Heavenly Eye could see were only outlines and blurry images, not the specific conditions inside the stones, it was quite suitable for the current situation.
Since none of these raw materials had green, Huo Sining decided not to pick each piece individually. Instead, she placed her hand on the warehouse’s floor tiles and conducted a comprehensive Heavenly Eye scan of the entire warehouse. As a result, which piece had green beca apparent to her at a glance.
Soon, the tens of thousands of raw materials in the warehouse erged in Huo Sining’s mind, and several spots of green appeared before her eyes.
That’s the one!
Huo Sining was delighted and chose a piece with the strongest green and highest quality from the several jadeite-producing materials, heading straight in its direction.
Badasang was outside chatting with Mr. Hou, thinking Huo Sining would take at least an hour to co out. Unexpectedly, in less than half an hour, Huo Sining ca out carrying a piece of raw material.
Badasang was montarily stunned and stood up to take a look at the raw material Huo Sining brought out, feeling a trace of disappointnt.
It was a piece of Longkeng material, which is mostly yellow sand skin or gray fish skin, with a rough surface.
The material from this place generally has a good water base, pure color, and often produces high jade.
However, not all Longkeng materials can cut a rise. The piece that Huo Sining held now was one of the most commonly referred to as waste material, completely black, without any pine or python pattern visible on the surface, let alone green clouds.
Such raw material, even among brick materials, was the least favored kind, as its chance of cutting a rise was almost zero.
“Miss Huo, you’ve made your choice so quickly? There’s no ti limit on selecting materials from that warehouse, Miss Huo, you can inspect several more pieces before making a decision.”
Badasang did not want Huo Sining to lose face, so he indicated with his eyes for her to go back and take another look because he thought the material in Huo Sining’s hand was almost certainly going to cut a fall.
Mr. Hou, having lived most of his life, could easily hear the implied aning in Badasang’s words. He couldn’t help but tap his rattan chair and calmly said:
“Badasang, rules are rules. I don’t engage in personal transactions here. Even if Ma Changsheng ca, he would have only one chance!”
His words were quite blunt, and even Badasang’s face changed slightly, looking at Huo Sining with embarrassnt.
Huo Sining didn’t mind and smiled as she shook her head at Badasang: “General Badasang, Mr. Hou is right. Rules are rules, and since I’ve chosen this raw material, I stand by my decision without regret. Mr. Hou, this is the raw material I’ve selected, kindly assess it!”
Huo Sining’s poised and assertive remark left Badasang stunned.
Even Mr. Hou was a bit surprised, nodding faintly as he said: “Hmm, bring the raw material over here for
to inspect.”
The old man’s inspection did not involve using his eyes, but rather his hands.
Huo Sining followed the instruction and brought the raw material to the elder. As soon as Mr. Hou touched the Longkeng material chosen by Huo Sining, his expression beca more solemn.
He forcefully tapped the stone several tis and then took out a small hamr of unknown material from his body, gently tapping various parts of the stone.
Seeing the old man concentrate so seriously, Huo Sining instinctively held her breath, fearing her breathing might affect his judgnt.
A short while later, Mr. Hou put down the raw material in his hand. He raised his head to look at Huo Sining, those white eyes without a hint of black seed to be looking at her, but she could feel his respect for all his opponents.
Mr. Hou rarely smiled, but he did so now, saying to Huo Sining: “Qing Shuidi, good water quality, rich green color, deep penetration, but unfortunately the quality isn’t high. Otherwise, it could be considered a rare premium product.”
As soon as these words were spoken, Huo Sining was utterly astonished.
If soone had told her before coming to Myanmar that there could be a blind gamble expert, even a top stone gambling master, her first reaction would have been that the person was surely talking nonsense.
But at the mont, her heart was turbulent, a voice seed to be doubting and screaming, that this was impossible. How could such a remarkable occurrence happen?
