King of Gamblers: Growing from a Student to a Jade King

 The boss set the stones and took stacks of cash. Although this kind of transaction is quite troublesome, it feels very satisfying to watch.

 The stone cutting also took place upstairs, done by a young guy in his twenties. In the corner of the rough stone area, the cutting of the stone didn't attract much attention; only Qian Guang and I went over to take a look.

 The boss handed the stone to the stone cutter and said, "Make a cut at the top first, and let's see what's inside."

 I looked at the stone, where the most warts were on top, with a few wart-like spots. If I cut down from here and see color inside, then this stone has potential; at the very least, it's a half-full piece.

 The young man took a drag from his cigarette and looked at the boss, who was non-mainstream, with long hair and a nose ring. He said, "Cutting it off at the waist saves a lot of trouble. This is a stubborn issue, and I'm sure you know it too. Why waste"

 The boss is a bit angry and said, "Just cut it however I tell you to."

 The young man was a bit angry and said, "Damn it, whether I cut it once or twice, it's still two bucks. I'm saving you two bucks and you're not even grateful."

 I found this young man's words quite interesting, so I curiously glanced at him. He looked very disdainful. The master who cuts stones gets paid by the number of cuts; each cut is two dollars. If he's diligent, he can make over a thousand cuts in a day, living quite comfortably. Those

 "Boss Wei, can you switch me to someone else?" the boss shouted angrily.

 Boss Wei listened and came over, pointing at the young man and saying, "Wang Gui, if you don't want to work, just leave. There are plenty of people who want to work for me. Can you not just sit here taking up space?"

 The person named Wang Gui glanced at the boss and said, "Cut it, just cut it..."

 He started cutting the stone on the cutting machine, and suddenly sparks flew out. We all stepped back, but Wang Gui didn't care; it didn't matter to him even when the sparks hit his face. After a while, he picked up the cut stone, rinsed it in water, and handed it to the

 The boss looked at the incision, and indeed it was dead, without any color. He tossed the useless end onto the ground and said, "Did you see the scabs over here? Cut vertically, slice it down the middle, and take a bit more meat from the areas with more scabs."

 I looked at the stone; this person is quite skilled. This piece has many blemishes, and as long as it yields material from within, it will definitely not be lacking. Moreover, the color of the blemishes is very deep. As the saying goes, "green follows the blemishes." The deeper

 Making bracelets for a hundred thousand is not a problem; if there's a bit more material, it could easily reach two million.

 The young man looked at the stone, spat out the cigarette he had in his mouth, feeling a bit annoyed, and said, "Damn it, they're all deadbeats, yet they still want to gamble one more time. Are they crazy for money..."

 Although the young man was mumbling, he still obediently cut the stones. I found him quite interesting; judging by the tone of his speech, he should understand stone gambling. Indeed, every stone cutter faces countless gamblers and stones every day. They are the true experts, and it's only natural for them to

 This stone is a foot wide. I watched the young man cut at a spot just over half a foot in, and he ended up cutting through all the blemishes on that side. The blemishes on this piece are all dead ones, so there's no gamble here. Yet, this boss still doesn't believe in

 Sparks flew, and after nearly ten minutes, the young man cut the stone from one end to the other, then took it down, pressed it into the water, and after bringing it up, smiled at the boss and said, "See? What did I tell you? Stubborn as a mule,

 The boss looked at the stone, which was still a dead gray. Angrily, he threw the stone to the ground and pointed at the young man, saying, "What the hell are you talking about? I can afford to lose, but Boss Wei, if you want people to patronize your business

 Boss Wei hurriedly came over to apologize, saying, "Wang Gui, you really don't want to do this anymore, do you?"

 Wang Gui shook his head and said, "I'm just speaking the truth..."

 Boss Wei looked at him with his head down and didn't scold him anymore. He said, "Boss Li, why bother arguing with someone who cuts stones? Let's keep playing; I'll give you a piece."

 Upon hearing this, Boss Li glared fiercely at Wang Gui, still feeling regretful about the materials in his hands.

 I was watching the material on one side, and that piece with the blemish was already ruined, while the other half hadn't been cut yet. As I looked at the cut, a sudden excitement welled up inside me. On the cut of the smaller piece, there was a long white strip that looked like

 Generally speaking, jade rough is layered in structure, typically consisting of three layers. The outermost layer is a heavy stone skin; the middle layer is a mist layer; and the innermost layer is the jade itself. So when I see mist appearing, especially white mist, I feel that this piece still

 Because the presence of a mist layer is one of the important pieces of evidence for determining whether a raw stone contains jadeite and the quality of that jadeite, I was greatly intrigued when I saw this material had a mist.

 Fog is also divided into three levels: upper, middle, and lower. White fog and yellow fog are the best, so after seeing the white fog, I felt even more enchanted.

 I watched as the boss regretfully threw the stone on the ground. He stood up to leave, and I immediately stopped him, saying, "Boss, why not keep cutting and see?"

 The boss turned to me and said, "The ringworm has eaten away the flesh; if you cut it again, you'll need to stick on two more bucks."

 I said, "It's just two bucks, right? The boss can afford it..."

 The boss looked at Wang Gui and cursed, "I wouldn't even give it to a dog."

 Wang Gui laughed and didn't respond. Hearing this made me very happy, as I knew that the boss had lost interest in this material. I said, "Boss, I'd like to take a look at it again. How about you sell me this material for cutting?"

 The boss looked at me and smiled, then glanced at the money, seemingly recognizing it, and said, "Boss Tian, is this your friend? Doesn't he understand betting on stones? Buying waste material too?""He doesn't understand, so I can't take advantage of him, right? Just take it and have fun."

 Qian Guang looked at me, puzzled. Of course, he couldn't know why I wanted to buy a piece of scrap. I said, "Boss, we don't have much of a relationship, so it wouldn't be appropriate for you to give it to me, and it wouldn't be proper either. What if I"So let's just do a straightforward transaction; that way it's easier, right?"

 "Haha, imperial green? You're really something! Let me tell you, this kind of material can't possibly yield imperial green. You're quite amusing. Alright, I got this piece for two hundred thousand. If you want to cut an imperial green from it, just give me two hundred thousand, and you won't

 After I listened, I looked at Qian Guang, and he stared at me, saying, "Have you thought it through?"

 I nodded confidently and said, "Let's buy this material. If it doesn't sell, I'll take responsibility."

 Qian Guang listened and became even more puzzled. He carefully examined the material, and it was indeed ruined, but he still took out his card and said, "Let's not lose money and face."

 I nodded and took out my twenty thousand yuan. We went in on it together, and I had to pay my share. Just in case he tried to play tricks later and claimed I hadn't paid, I would be in trouble. I couldn't argue with him, so it was better to pay up front.

 Boss Wei helped with the transaction, and we spent two hundred thousand to buy this scrap from Boss Li. My dealings with Qian Guang in buying scrap have indeed attracted quite a bit of attention, and a few other bosses came over to join the fun and take a look.

 I have two pieces of material in my hands, and after weighing them, they must be over thirty pounds. However, the piece with blemishes weighs twenty pounds, while the other half, at most, is just over thirteen pounds. But its shape is good, like a long strip, about a foot long

 I handed the material to the guy who cuts stones. He looked at me and said, "That guy is foolish, but you're even more foolish for buying a pile of scrap. You must have money to burn..."

 I smiled a little, took out a cigarette, lit it, and handed it over. He glanced at me, smiled, and immediately bit the cigarette and said, "How do you want to cut it?"

 I said, "A clean cut in the middle, it'll save you trouble, and it'll save me trouble too."

 He listened and then started to laugh, finding me quite interesting. Without saying a word, he placed the stone under the saw blade, and the buzzing sound reached my ears. I was still very nervous, my breathing a bit rapid; after all, this was a material worth two hundred thousand. If it turned

 There were quite a few onlookers, all craning their necks to see. Qian Guang was also watching. I looked at him, but his expression didn't reveal whether he was happy or not. I actually admire Qian Guang a bit; he really dared to invest two hundred thousand to buy

 After the sound ended, I watched the young man pick up the stone and rinse it in the water before handing it to me. Looking at the stone, I felt a bit disheartened. That Mr. Li smiled and said, "Oh, not bad luck, huh? The cut has a bit

 Hearing his mocking laughter, I found him detestable. Everyone around was laughing at me. I looked at Qian Guang; his expression wasn't good either. But I wasn't anxious. This piece of stone had fog, so it must have green inside. The cut also showed green, which meant there must be

 I said, "Cut this piece with the green part vertically for me."

 The young man looked at me with a bit of sympathy and said, "Cutting it vertically is the safest option. There might be something inside to make a bracelet, but this material is pretty much like this..."

 I said, "Hmph, I'll give you a big red envelope later."

 I said all that, and the young man had nothing to say. He took a stone, stood it up, and cut it vertically from the previous cutting surface. As soon as the stone met the blade, huge sparks flew out, and everyone leaned in to watch. I was praying in my heart, hoping

 Time passed little by little, and when the stone was split in two, my heart reached its peak.

 Suddenly, someone shouted, "Hey, full of luck, this is just pure luck..."
