Chapter 517: Betting on Stones (4)

"Third sister, don't cause trouble!" The man who was with her scolded.

"Second brother, don't stop me!" The woman looked at Sima Youyue and said, "If you open a rare spirit stone worth more than 20,000 middle-grade crystals, I, Hu Fangfang, will give you double the price." The price! If you can't get it... If you can't get it... If you can't get it, you can give me one hundred thousand middle-grade crystals!"

"Okay." Sima Youyue nodded, and the two sides made an agreement.

"Third Sister, how can you let someone..." Hu Ling wanted to stop her, but his sister was so stubborn that she wouldn't even listen to him, but he couldn't let her do whatever she wanted.

"Second brother, no one refused, why are you so anxious!" Hu Fangfang said with a smile. "Now that we've agreed, let's get started!"

When betting on stones, there will be some gambling games, which are very common, so everyone is not surprised, but just watched with interest, wanting to see who will win in the end.

"My lord, how do you want to open it?" asked the master who opened the stone.

"Let's cut straight in the middle!" Sima Youyue said.

"This...Young Master, are you sure?" Master Kaishi asked.

Generally, the opening stones are cut bit by bit from one side, because most of the spirit stones are in the middle to one side. If it is cut from the middle, it is easy to cut the spirit stone inside. Once this spirit stone is cut, the spiritual power contained in it will leak out from the incision, so it must be used as soon as possible and cannot be stored for a long time. The value of this spirit stone will drop a lot.

It is relatively rare for someone like her to ask to cut it directly from the middle.

"She said cut it from the middle, so cut it from the middle." Hu Fangfang said with a smile, "Anyway, this is also a watermelon stone, so it doesn't matter if it is cut from the middle."

Master Kaishi also felt that it was reasonable, so he cut the stone in half with a single knife according to what Sima Youyue said.

The stones on both sides fell to the ground, revealing white stones.

"It really is Baishi." The onlookers were not surprised when they saw Baishi.

When Hu Fangfang saw this Baishi, he smiled proudly, which made Fatty Qu and the others furious.

"What's the hurry, didn't you see that those two were very calm?" Wu Lingyu said lightly when he saw how angry they were.

If it was said that Sima Youyue had no experience in betting on stones for the first time, then Mo San didn't say anything from the beginning to the end, which meant that there must be nothing wrong with the stone.

"How to spend the next knife?" Master Kaishi asked half of it.

"Let me take a look." Sima Youyue took the stone and looked at it, then drew on it, and said, "Follow this."

"it is good."

Master Kaishi took it back, and cut it again according to the position Sima Youyue said. The stone is split into two halves, and it is still a white stone.

"This, polish it." Sima Youyue picked up one of the pieces and said.

There are ways to open stones such as cutting and grinding. Generally, cutting will be used at the beginning, and then the grinding method will be selected later when the spirit stone is expected to be produced, and the stone skin will be slowly removed.

After a while, several peanut-sized spirit stones were ground out.

"Sure enough, it's watermelon seeds." The onlookers said.

"Where are these watermelon seeds? They are better than watermelon seeds. They are peanuts!" Hu Fangfang said with a smile.

"Third Sister!" Hu Ling frowned, looking a little angry.

Hu Fangfang stuck out her tongue and didn't speak, but her eyes on Sima Youyue were still full of provocation!

Sima Youyue collected those emerald green peanuts, and then gave the other half to Master Kaishi, saying: "Grind this one too."

"Hahaha, is this trying to make up the value of 20,000?" Someone laughed.

Sima Youyue didn't bother to pay attention to them, and after giving the small half to Master Kaishi, she picked up the other half of the stone and observed it carefully.

"Let me drive it for you." Mo San walked over and said.

"Okay." Sima Youyue knew that Mo San didn't speak lightly, since he opened his mouth, it was either because it was more difficult to open, or something in it aroused his interest.

Mo San picked up the stone and put it on the low table, then took out a small knife, touched it with his hand, and then used the small knife to gently tilt along a grain, and a piece of stone skin was peeled off.

Everyone saw that it was a good hand, the peeled skin was as smooth as a cut, and it didn't look like it was peeled off with a knife at all.

Before he knew it, everyone's attention was shifted to him, even Master Kaishi stopped what he was doing and looked at Mo Sankaishi.

Mo San peeled off the outer skin layer by layer, and soon the stone the size of an adult's fist turned into a stone the size of a duck egg.

Mo San glanced at Sima Youyue, Sima Youyue understood what he meant, and said a little excitedly: "Is it coming out?"

Mo San nodded, then took out a piece of skin for polishing, and began to rub the remaining stone skin lightly, using even force everywhere. Under his polishing, a spirit stone the size of an egg appeared in front of everyone.

Mo San took out a water cloth and gently wiped off the lime on it, so that everyone could clean and see the spirit stone clearly.

"Look, there is actually a golden core inside!" Someone exclaimed.

"This is a stone within a stone!"

"It's really a stone within a stone! The stuff inside is golden yellow, and it's the size of an egg. This grade is not low!"

"The one the size of a lychee in Shi Zhongshi is worth more than a hundred thousand. This one is the size of an egg and has a golden core. It's worth at least three to four hundred thousand!"

"hiss--"

Everyone present couldn't help taking a breath, they didn't expect this thing to be so valuable!

"Youyue, take it!" Mo San put the spirit stone into Sima Youyue's hand, very happy that he could cut out such a spirit stone.

Sima Youyue happily took the Lingshi and waved it at Hu Fangfang. "I'm really sorry that I won the bet this time. I'll ask someone to help me estimate the value later. Thank you Miss Hu for your generous bet. Master, you can grind out the rest of it for me, maybe it can still work." A few more watermelon seeds, no, peanuts!"

Hu Fangfang's face turned green with anger, Sima Youyue was slapping herself in the face. But in full view, she couldn't do anything foolish.

Soon, all the remaining ones were ground out. There were five watermelon seeds in total, which together could be worth about a thousand medium-grade crystals.

Shige has a special appraiser who can accurately estimate the value of the opened spirit stones. After a while, an old man with a sense of immortality came out from the back yard and specially came to appraise Sima Youyue.

"Such a large stone-in-stone is indeed relatively rare, and it is of high quality. The old man feels a majestic power from the golden core. From my experience, the minimum of this stone-in-stone is 350,000 middle-grade spar .”

Three hundred and fifty thousand, twice that is seven hundred thousand. Hu Fangfang felt pain in her heart when she thought that she would export seven hundred thousand all at once.

"Wait a minute, there are still these, please let's estimate the price together. At least I can make some money." Sima Youyue opened her hand, and there were more than a dozen watermelon seed-sized spirit stones on it.

Everyone couldn't help laughing when they saw that she really valued the watermelon seeds.
