Chapter 279: She Actually Chose The Smallest Stone

In the very next second.

Gu Qiqi’s cold face curved into a mocking smile. “2.5 million? Then, I’ll give it to you!”

In other words, she was implying that she was a fool. Buy it.

Gu Yuanyuan choked and retorted sarcastically, “It can’t be that you can only afford the smallest fist-szed stone, right? Why are you pretending to be rich if you don’t have money? You’re even bidding with me?”

Gu Qiqi held a check for 500 dollars.

Her gaze swept across the smallest stone and stopped for a second.

This affirmed Gu Yuanyuan and Gu Xuexue’s thoughts.

Tsk. This bookworm can’t take it anymore. She really doesn’t have money anymore, hahaha!

However, her laughter wasn’t over yet.

Gu Qiqi’s gaze had already left that smallest untrimmed quarry stone. Her fair hand pointed in the air again. “I want that piece by the counter.”

She followed Gu Qiqi’s fair finger and saw that Gu Yuanyuan was at the counter. She didn’t see any other untrimmed quarry stones at all.

Could it be that the boss was hiding something good again that she didn’t notice?

Gu Yuanyuan immediately said unhappily, “Boss, have you taken out all your untrimmed quarry stones? If I find out that you hid the jades like the longevity peaches again, my friend and I will boycott your shop forever! Hmph!”

The boss despised her in his heart. You? You think you can ruin my big shop?

Tsk, I can’t be bothered to bicker with you!

His tone was no longer as polite as before. “Miss Gu, I’m open for business. Why would I hide anything? Of course, I can’t wait for everyone to choose a stone that suits their intentions. Why do you say that?”

Gu Yuanyuan curled her lips. “Then what else did this country bumpkin say she wanted?”

Gu Xuexue tugged at her lightly. “Sister Yuan Yuan, she wants that… leftover material from the floor, right?”

Only then did Gu Yuanyuan realize that what Gu Qiqi was pointing at was a piece of broken stone the size of a duck egg on the floor of the counter. Perhaps, some untrimmed quarry stone had been knocked over and fallen to the side.

This cornerstone was smaller and more inconspicuous than the smallest raw material just now!

She was stunned.

Then, she laughed out loud.

“Gu Qiqi, you country bumpkin. Your taste is really… terrible! Also, you don’t have money in your pocket anymore, right? You still had the cheek to compete with me just now? If I didn’t buy it, you wouldn’t even be able to foot the bill now, right? Are you going to bet on yourself to repay the debt?”

She suddenly felt a little regretful. She should just admire Gu Qiqi’s embarrassing state of not having the money to buy a stone.

But it wasn’t a bad idea to expose the truth that Gu Qiqi was poor in front of everyone now.

Indeed, the customers were whispering.

The owner also reminded her in embarrassment, “Beauty, this stone isn’t valuable. If you want it, you can take it for fun for 100 dollars. However… there really isn’t any jade inside. Don’t blame me.”

Everyone felt that Gu Qiqi must have squandered all of that 810,000 dollars. Now, she didn’t have a single cent left. She forced herself to look good and came to join in the fun.

How pitiful.

Faced with everyone’s pitying gazes, Gu Qiqi remained calm and collected. She paid to take away that duck egg-sized stone.

Gu Yuanyuan wanted to take the opportunity to dig at her again.

But the boss couldn’t stand it anymore. He called out to everyone to admire the stones being opened on the spot. The vicious words that were about to reach Gu Yuanyuan’s mouth were forcefully choked back.

But it didn’t matter. Later, this huge boulder of hers would bloom with a dazzling treasure. It would be enough to blind Gu Qiqi’s dog eyes!

Gu Yuanyuan sat on the sofa arrogantly and waited for the stone to be opened.

Her stone was the biggest one present.

Of course, it was the first to be opened.

A total of three professional masters started using cutting machines from three different angles.

With a sharp hissing sound, the boulder gradually revealed its true appearance!

“Wow, so much jade… It’s worth it!”

“The quality isn’t bad. I think it’s an ice type… Although 2.5 million dollars is a little expensive, if I can sell a few catties of this ice type, that would be very profitable!”

After all, that small ice jade paperweight cost 200,000 dollars.

If she could cut out ice-type jades into the size of dozens of paperweights, not only would Gu Yuanyuan not suffer a loss, but she would also earn a fortune.

However…

In the very next second, everyone swallowed their praise.

What replaced it was astonishment and regret.
