51 -51: The Final Decision with One Hammer Blow

Wufu looked at the jade stone she had just split open, examined its quality closely, and expressed great satisfaction.

It was just as she had observed—a fine piece of jadeite.

The only thing she was not pleased about was that her technique, while not rusty, was still not as skilled as in her previous life.

After all, she had not practiced enough.

It seemed she needed to practice more.

Fortunately, her precision hadn’t failed her.

Judging by the size of the stone, it should be enough to make a bracelet and a hairpin.

As for the leftover fragments, they could be made into some delicate small Jade Pendants.

Wufu casually picked up other tools and began to slowly carve away at the skin of the stone.

She didn’t have many tools at her disposal, but she made do with what she had.

The emergence of jadeite from the rough stone had already shocked everyone.

As Wufu continued to cut away the skin, revealing more and more of the fresh green, the crowd erupted into exclamations of awe.

“Mr.

Lin, Mr.

Lin.”

Contrasting with the crowd’s excitement, a frantic voice was particularly grating.

Looking over, they saw Ghost Hand Master fainting into the arms of an assistant, his eyes tightly shut, his complexion deathly pale.

“Quickly carry Mr.

Lin into the back hall and summon a doctor,” Shopkeeper Lin commanded in a panicked and irritated tone.

Today was a massive loss of face for him.

Nevertheless, Shopkeeper Lin had been at Silver House for many years and quickly adjusted his facial expression, masking his emotions with a smile as he approached Wufu.

“The younger generation is to be feared, truly to be feared.

Today, this old man has truly misjudged.

Miss Wufu, you are incredible!” Shopkeeper Lin said with a smile, eyeing the jadeite in her hands.

His eyes shone with a wolfish green light, “Miss, may I have a look?”

Wufu handed it over generously, saying, “Shopkeeper Lin, with your keen eye and experience, is this top-grade jadeite?

I didn’t make a mistake, did I?” She looked around and not seeing the master, said, “Eh, where has Mr.

Lin gone?

I still need him to give his judgment to make it official.” She was a good junior who respected her elders.

Arrogant, just too arrogant!

Did you not see that you’ve angered the master to the point of fainting?

The corners of Shopkeeper Lin’s mouth twitched.

He decided not to stoop to her level.

Pacifying this young lady and getting the jadeite would be the only way to recover today’s losses.

Only then could his own oversight be somewhat alleviated.

He scrutinized the jadeite in his hand, examining its reflection in the light, the cotton-like inclusions, and its overall color.

His expression grew more solemn, his heart increasingly shocked.

Although it was still rough seed material yet to be carved, this piece was certainly jadeite, vibrant and lustrous—fine jadeite, indeed.

Then, why hadn’t Master Lin recognized it?

Could it be that he had really aged?

Shopkeeper Lin thought about Master Lin’s temper in recent years and dared not voice this idea.

The older he got, the bigger his ego seemed to grow, which Shopkeeper Lin found somewhat arrogant.

There were rumors that Master Lin’s disciples and grand-disciples harbored some discontent, feeling he kept his best techniques to himself, unwilling to share everything he knew.

This was understandable, after all, as the saying goes, “Teach your apprentice and starve your master.” Keeping some knowledge back is only human nature.

Yet this master of many decades had just been bested by a young girl, which was quite indefensible.

“How about it?

Shopkeeper Lin, does it meet your approval?” Wufu asked, seeing his face go through a range of expressions, unable to help herself from speaking up again.

Shopkeeper Lin came back to his senses, looking at Wufu, wanting to behave like a typical businessman and downplay the value of the seed material.

By doing so, he could smoothly take possession of it.

But when he met Wufu’s bright, shining eyes, the disparaging words automatically altered, “Today this old man’s eyes have been opened wide.

This is indeed a fine piece of jadeite!”

This statement, definitive like that of an authority, set the record straight.
