The Beautiful CEO's Dragon Blood Bodyguard-Chapter 760 - 0: Jade Within Jade

Lin Yingying shouted in the group chat, and Li Zhenni, Wang Xiaoya, An Xiaoke, Ding Xue, and Lin Shanshan all came.

During the Lantern Festival, these girls were all at home celebrating with their parents.

They were about to prepare for work when they saw what Lin Yingying had posted.

The group, upon seeing the contents, all had a twinkle in their eyes, and without a second word, they started picking things for themselves at the counter.

Ding Xue, always busy coming and going, found it inconvenient to carry other things, so she chose a jade pendant for herself and curiously asked Lin Yingying, "Are you guys thinking about getting into the jade business?"

Lin Yingying laughed and said, "Not at all, last night a bad guy tried to kill us, but Long Fei defeated him, and he compensated us with this shop."

Ding Xue exclaimed, "Murder? Why didn’t you tell me?"

"The affairs of the Cultivation World aren’t something you can manage!"

Lin Yingying picked out two pairs of earrings for her, a droplet design encased in a layer of gold leaves which looked very pretty.

"I told you that villa was not auspicious, but you insisted on living in it, constantly being targeted for assassination!"

Lin Shanshan muttered, her small hands not stopping as she kept loading jade pieces into her Qiankun Bag.

Others took pieces one by one, but she was shoveling them in handfuls.

Lin Yingying reminded, "Sis, put the jade pieces in boxes. Your Qiankun Bag isn’t shockproof; a slight jolt could break them all."

Lin Shanshan chuckled, "Almost forgot!"

She immediately took them out and found boxes under the counter, carefully packing away the jade bracelets and necklaces.

Wang Xiaoya and An Xiaoke each chose a jade bracelet, recalling the time Long Fei had given them each a Dragon Stone Jade bracelet.

The bracelets in the store, the best of which were only glass-type, were actually nothing special.

Everyone came over purely for the fun of joining in.

Lin Yingying didn’t leave anyone out, acting like the big wife of the family, and picked out one for each of them.

She chose a gold-encrusted jade phoenix hairpin for Wang Xiaoya and personally placed it in Wang Xiaoya’s coiled hair.

The girls exchanged amused glances and teasingly said to Lin Yingying, "Big sister Lin, the one you’ve picked for Little Ya seems nicer than ours, doesn’t it?"

"Go away!"

Lin Yingying laughed, blushing along with Wang Xiaoya.

They made a fuss inside, each choosing an item they liked, and then followed Lin Yingying out to the yard behind.

Long Fei called and even brought over Jade King Liu Jinsuo, who was accompanied by a few apprentices from the jade workshops.

When Liu Jinsuo found out the Jade Stone Workshop had been acquired by Long Fei, his expression was one of utter disbelief.

The Mu Family Gambling Stone Workshop was the most famous one in the entire market.

And now, it belonged to Long Fei.

For someone like Liu Jinsuo who adored jade beyond anything else, his worship for master Long Fei was uncontainable.

Long Fei had just said he wanted him and his apprentices to look after the Jade Stone Workshop in the future.

No more gambling on stones; after cutting open the stones in the yard, they would all be sold as finished jade pieces.

That meant all the rough stones here were to be cut open.

Liu Jinsuo couldn’t help himself from wanting to take one up and practice.

The few rough stones in the Superior-grade Area, the size of lounge chairs, had caught Liu Jinsuo’s eye for several years.

If cut open to reveal full jade inside,

they could be crafted into art pieces, whether carved into Buddhist statues or other objects, which would definitely be considered national treasures.

Long Fei chose a rough stone and asked Liu Jinsuo to cut it open to take a look.

This rough stone was quite plain, about the size of a winter melon.

To be honest, in terms of appearance and external structure, this stone didn’t seem as pleasing to the eye as the others.

However, to Long Fei, this was no ordinary situation, because his special vision ability, for some reason, didn’t work on this gambling stone.

Inside the stone, there was a layer of divine substance that could block the entry of spiritual power.

A group of women arrived, and after glancing around and looking closely, they eventually gathered around Liu Jinsuo to watch him cut the stone.

Long Fei discussed with Liu Jinsuo, and for safety’s sake, they decided to cut the gambling stone layer by layer.

Having been in the jade circle for fifty or sixty years, Liu Jinsuo certainly had the requisite skills. freeweɓnovēl.coɱ

He called over two apprentices to help, and they started by using a cutting machine to grind off the tough outer shell.

Finally, using a small knife, they cut into the stone layer by layer, continuously scraping off the outer shell.

Soon, a green glow began to shine through from the inside.

Liu Jinsuo shouted excitedly, "There’s green, Master really is a master of stone gambling, casually cutting and finding green."

It felt odd to hear a man in his seventies calling Long Fei "Master".

A few of the girls covered their mouths and laughed.

Lin Shanshan asked, "Old man, what grade is this?"

Liu Jinsuo grew more astonished as he cut, furrowing his brow as he said, "Dragon Jade, even more precious than glass-type."

Everyone was pleasantly surprised, not expecting such good fortune to encounter Dragon Jade on their first try.

Lin Shanshan, with glinting eyes, said to Long Fei, "Brother-in-law, if you don’t care for this thing, how about making it into a few bracelets for us?"

Lin Yingying knocked on her head, chiding, "You just took half of my storage away, and you still have the face to ask?"

Lin Shanshan pouted, "Housekeeper, this is my brother-in-law’s stuff, not yours."

"Oh my god!"

Lin Yingying went to pinch her neck, and as they were playing around, Wang Xiaoya suddenly cried out from a side, "There’s something inside."

Everyone raised their eyebrows and scrutinized the Dragon Jade closely.

Indeed, inside the jade that seemed to possess the color and texture of a beer bottle, there was a round shadow.

Long Fei frowned intensely as he stared at the round shadow, convinced that it was the source of the divine power.

This kind of divine power could shield one’s spiritual power, preventing any probing.

Liu Jinsuo exclaimed, "Goodness, I’ve been cutting jade for so many years and have never seen anything like this!"

The group of women, all curious, looked it over and guessed, "Is the thing inside also jade?"

"Could it be the essence of the jade?"

"A surprise within a surprise, jade within jade?"

Lin Shanshan’s eyes glinted with mischief.

Long Fei instructed, "Cut it out and have a look!"

Liu Jinsuo suggested, "Master, this is one in a million. If you don’t cut it, it’s worth a fortune. If you cut it out, not only is the exterior jade damaged, you also lose that sense of mystery."

Long Fei smiled faintly, "You just worry about cutting, the thing inside is definitely one in a million."

The women, intrigued, urged Liu Jinsuo to hurry up and reveal what the object was.

Unable to persuade them otherwise, Liu Jinsuo observed the jade’s pattern before choosing the best angle to cut from.

This way, even if the exterior was Dragon Jade, it could be preserved to the greatest extent and made into other jade ornaments.

One should know that a tiny Buddha pendant, carved from Dragon Jade, could be worth at least tens of thousands.

The jade quickly developed a crack under the roaring of the cutting machine.

Despite Liu Jinsuo’s caution, quite a bit of the jade was shattered, causing him real heartache.

If there was just a worthless rock inside, the loss would be huge.

A billion yuan worth could absolutely plummet to dust.
