Chapter 1351: Chapter 1346: Astonishnt

Because Sakai Ichiro and the others just learned that Huo Sining and Li Jun would be having another stone gambling match.

This made Sakai Ichiro both unconvinced and disdainful. To him, all these so-called gamble experts were exaggerated. Even immortals find it difficult to judge a jade within an inch. If these two gamble out Jadeite, it’s rely due to luck.

He wanted to see what skills this Jade Queen had to warrant such a title!

The four of them stood by the railing next to the pavilion, not noticing that there was already soone sitting on a stone bench beside them.

The little one, Qibao, didn’t go to join the fun in front of the stone cutting machine but instead sat leisurely in the pavilion, seemingly absentminded as he played with his nails.

As the night breeze blew, a faint powder drifted onto the collars of the three people.

“These Dongyang people are really shaless, Ningning. At the Treasure appraisal event in two days, we must not let them steal the lilight. We should heavily suppress their arrogance and show them we are not to be trifled with!”

Su Qingqing, still indignant about Sakai Ichiro’s earlier attempt to cheat, couldn’t help but quietly say this to Huo Sining.

Whether they’ll be arrogant two days later remains to be seen, but the bit of poison Qibao dropped will be enough to deal with them.

Huo Sining’s mouth slightly curved, and she proudly winked at Qibao, indicating she had seen his sneaky actions earlier.

Caught by Huo Sining, Qibao was not flustered and instead playfully stuck out his tongue at her.

Huo Sining chuckled, discreetly poured the water from her tea cup onto the ground, and then walked over to Li Jun: “Mr. Li, I wonder if our bet still holds?”

Li Jun chuckled, “Of course, Miss Huo, unless you find it troubleso. It’s my honor.”

Huo Sining followed Li Jun into the warehouse where the raw materials were stored. In fact, when they first arrived at the Li Family Manor, Huo Sining and the others had already been here once. But at that ti, she was more concerned with the people like Watanabe Yasu standing in the warehouse and hadn’t had the chance to look at the raw materials inside.

Now, entering again and seeing the scale of it, Huo Sining was stunned.

This was her first ti seeing so many whole gamble raw materials in a private warehouse. There were at least thousands of blocks of raw material here, and they were divided into seven or eight piles according to the field, size, and presentation, all neatly arranged in this large warehouse.

“So of these materials have been collected for many years, while others were just newly acquired. After screening, they are stored in the warehouse. As good raw materials are becoming scarcer, these materials, when stockpiled, can help the Li family’s jewelry company go further in the future.”

Seeing the amazent in Huo Sining’s eyes, Li Jun couldn’t help but explain with a smile.

Huo Sining smiled. She understood Li Jun’s implication. Li Jun likely knew Huo Sining had started a Jade Company, so he was subtly reminding her to stockpile sources.

In fact, stockpiling is indeed sothing Huo Sining had been doing, but she was just one person. How could she compare to a big conglorate like the Li family with such deep financial resources?

Thousands of raw materials from old and new fields, precisely selected good pieces—perhaps only the jade mines of those big families in Myanmar could achieve this level.

This Li family was indeed not to be underestimated.

This ti, the two selected their materials much faster than Sakai Ichiro. Huo Sining crouched in front of a pile of raw materials, pretending to study the stones.

After Li Jun selected a raw material, her mouth couldn’t help but curl up slightly. She wandered around a few other raw materials for a few minutes, hesitating as if undecided, and finally made up her mind, choosing a nondescript piece with a smile and picked it up.

“Miss Huo, have you chosen?”

Seeing Huo Sining stand up and walk over, Li Jun had a smile in his eyes.

But the next second, as he saw the piece of raw material in Huo Sining’s hands, the smile in his eyes faded, replaced by doubt and hesitation: “Miss Huo, are you sure you want to choose this piece?”

Huo Sining nodded with a smile, following Li Jun outside.

This ti, both of them would cut the stone personally. Without waiting for Li Jun to say anything, Huo Sining went directly to the stone cutting machine Sakai Ichiro had used before.

Li Jun was slightly taken aback, then a trace of a smile flashed in his eyes.

Typically, stone gambles believe in luck, especially just after cutting. The machine Li Jun used had cut and increased in value, while the one Sakai Ichiro used depreciated. Anyone else would have chosen Li Jun’s machine, believing it could bring good luck.

But Huo Sining did not do that, proving that she had enough confidence in the raw material she chose.

However, when Sakai Ichiro saw the piece of raw material Huo Sining was carrying, he couldn’t help but snicker.

He couldn’t identify pine flower and python pattern, but who in the betting circle didn’t know that these patterns are the key to gambling values increasing?

The piece of raw material in Huo Sining’s hands had no pine flower or python pattern, not even a speck of mottling. It was simply a totally unremarkable grey card.

Expecting this material to increase in value was pure wishful thinking, wasn’t it?

Huo Sining couldn’t be bothered to pay attention to Sakai Ichiro, this ignoramus. She moved to the stone cutting machine, ready to clean up the debris Sakai Ichiro left behind.

She nonchalantly pushed away the stones, but when she bent down and reached for the two largest debris pieces, her body suddenly halted, and her expression changed dramatically.

Within less than three seconds’ pause, Huo Sining calmly moved the two debris pieces from the machine, placing them not far from her feet.

She carefully concealed the astonishnt in her eyes, suppressing the urge to turn around and look at the debris again, and pretended to be composed as she started to mark lines on her raw material at the machine.

Yet, despite her best efforts to control her emotions, her breathing was sowhat erratic, and she could barely hold the chalk steady.

Taking several deep breaths, Huo Sining managed to calm her excitent sowhat.

Everyone was so focused on watching the two of them cut the stone that they didn’t think anything of her tense expression. They rely assud she was anxious about the gamble.

Unlike any previous stone cutting, Huo Sining’s speed this ti was swift—she sliced down the stone’s surface in four strokes, leaving only a piece inside about the size of a small pineapple, with a hint of a foggy look.

Huo Sining’s skill was fluid; with just four precise cuts, she removed the outer layer without waste, perfectly revealing the Jadeite inside. This performance left Sakai Ichiro, Li Jun, and the others utterly amazed.
