Su Feng continued to ignore her, turned his head and smiled at Madam Wen, "Madam, please continue. Here is six thousand silver dollars, and I'll take the other two as well."
This whole ordeal left Zhang Yingbai so angry that her head was throbbing and she almost fainted.
This was the first time he had ever seen someone treat gambling on stones so casually, like buying vegetables at a market, making a decision with a simple selection.
Even a seasoned veteran like him needs to analyze from multiple perspectives and observe from various angles before he can confidently and boldly take a gamble...
But Su Feng in front of me seemed relaxed and at ease, as if he were treating this as a relaxing form of entertainment.
Just then, a soft gasp of surprise came from behind the counter from Wen's mother.
"It's...it's actually icy jadeite!"
This exclamation attracted the attention of countless people.
Even Liu Butong, who had barely uttered a sound, was so shocked that he took a few steps forward and looked over in disbelief.
"How can it be!"
Liu Butong shuddered in surprise, "It really is an ice-type jade!"
In Mother Wen's hands lay a piece of jade that had been cut away from its outer shell. The jade was transparent, appearing remarkably clear, with a fine and dense texture! Its shape was exquisite, and its luster was dazzling—a truly superior piece!
Although icy jadeite is not particularly rare in the market, different types of icy jadeite vary in quality... and prices fluctuate accordingly...
But one thing is certain: even the worst quality icy jade can fetch tens of thousands of dollars on the market!
It's comparable to a mansion!
"Young Master Su has excellent taste! Excellent taste indeed!"
Wen's mother excitedly congratulated Su Feng, seemingly even more thrilled than if she had driven the car herself!
"Madam, you flatter me. It was this shop that brought me good luck, allowing me to buy such a precious piece of jade at such a reasonable price."
Su Feng nodded softly.
He only had a superficial understanding of the types and prices of jadeite.
However, he knew very well that these pieces of jade were anything but ordinary.
He could sense the immense spiritual energy contained within these stones the moment he entered the shop, even more so than the ones he had bought in Shuilian Town!
In this way, he naturally had the confidence to thoroughly humiliate these two "experts".
The emergence of icy jadeite has tipped the scales in favor of jadeite.
Liu Butong turned his head and looked at Zhang Yingbai with an incredulous expression. His face was already covered in sweat.
Zhang Yingbai wasn't in much better shape. With the help of the security guards beside him, he stood up shakily, his mouth agape in astonishment, unable to utter a single word.
But this is only the beginning...
The second jade stone that Wen's mother opened for Su Feng was also a fine piece!
"Congratulations, Young Master Su, it's another piece of icy jadeite! And the quality is even better than the last one!!"
Click!
Accompanied by the bell-ringing congratulations from Wen's mother, Zhang Yingbai was so startled that he broke his cane, clutched his chest, and took two or three steps back.
Then came the third one...
"My God, it's glass-type jadeite! Young Master Su has such a discerning eye! His luck is incredible!"
Three fine jade pieces found! It's like finding gold in your food!
The three jade stones together are worth well over 200,000 yuan, or even more!
Even a wealthy man like Zhang Yingbai would be furious and beat his chest in frustration if he misjudged the jade and lost such a fine piece!
It's actually glass-type jadeite! It's the most valuable type of jadeite!
He deeply regrets his actions!
No one could have imagined that such a vast universe was hidden beneath that ordinary exterior!
The collectible value of these three jade pieces far exceeds their price!
In other words, he missed out on a six-figure fortune because of that brief moment of hesitation!
The lingering chill from the touch on his fingertips felt like barbs stabbing into his heart, making it hard for him to breathe.
He had remembered the saying, "Even immortals can't judge the value of a piece of jade," for a very long time! He just never expected that this famous saying in the world of jade gambling would be so easily broken by Su Feng today…
Whether it was luck or skill, Zhang Yingbai had no idea.
"Master Zhang! Master Zhang, please take it easy!"
The two security guards dared not bluff any longer and quickly reached out to help Zhang Yingbai up...
After all, it has now been proven that the jewelry store did not cheat its customers; rather, the two wealthy men were blind to the value of the jewelry, lost their manners, and lost face.
"So? Do you still think these two thousand silver dollars are worth it?" Su Feng took the three packaged jade stones from Wen's mother, walked up to Zhang Yingbai and Liu Butong, and chuckled softly.
At this moment, Zhang Yingbai was like a wilted pickled cucumber, completely devoid of his previous toughness. He was rendered speechless by Su Feng's retort, turned around angrily, and before leaving, he glared at Su Feng one last time, imprinting his image in his mind!
The tide turned, and the onlookers began to applaud Su Feng and the Treasure Shop.
The two security guards who had initially acted arrogantly and abusively took advantage of the chaos to slink away.
"Young Master Su, we really owe you a lot this time."
Wenya came up and expressed her gratitude.
"If it weren't for your help, things wouldn't have ended so easily today."
Judging from the attitude of those people just now, they clearly have no intention of stopping, and things are likely to escalate.
It was truly a blessing from heaven that she unearthed three fine pieces of jade in a row. Even she herself still feels like she's dreaming; it's so unbelievable.
"I have a question for you, Young Master Su. How did you know that this stone could yield both icy and glassy varieties?"
Faced with Wen Ya's question, Su Feng simply smiled and said, "Intuition."
Wen's mother also came over to express her heartfelt thanks, but did not intend to invite Su Feng to stay for dinner.
But it was getting late, and Su Feng didn't plan to linger. Besides, he had important things to do.
……
By the time Ren Tingting was escorted back to the Ren residence, it was already dark.
A few claps of thunder came from afar, suggesting that a heavy rain would soon follow.
Su Feng didn't intend to linger in the town any longer and quickened his pace back to the banana grove.
Everything in the banana grove remained the same. King Kong stood on the roof enjoying the cool air, with two bunches of bananas hanging beside him. Since the battle of Tengteng Town, he had finally achieved banana freedom.
Chen Yue was still tinkering with the Supreme Cauldron alone in the backyard. When she noticed that it was about to rain, she quickly grabbed a few pieces of cloth to wrap the materials and then pushed the Supreme Cauldron under the eaves to prevent it from getting wet.
Black Moon and Morning Star were practicing drawing talismans.
Although Hei Yue is the older sister in terms of age, she is not as good as Chen Xing in terms of drawing talismans, so she has to humbly learn from her.
Zhao Wuxie, on the other hand, neither ate nor drank for a whole day, and cultivated in the house.
Everything was so peaceful and serene...
There is a sense that this place is a paradise on earth.
Su Feng greeted Chen Yue and the others as he passed by, then went back inside.
He has important things to do now!
The three pieces of jade purchased from the jewelry store, regardless of their monetary value, possess a remarkable spiritual energy!
It's absolutely superb for carving talismans!
"While the previous pieces were of decent quality, they were nowhere near as good as these three..."
Su Feng murmured.
It's no wonder he's "fickle," because the spiritual energy displayed by these three pieces of jade is quite pure and without any impurities!
The effects of the carved talismans will inevitably be enhanced!
"Let's decide on this..."
After thinking for a moment, Su Feng decided to carve the Cleansing Mantra, the Cleansing Heart Mantra, and the Cleansing Mouth Mantra into talismans.
Even without casting a spell, it can be used to protect the wearer of 4.2.
With his previous experience, Su Feng was able to carve with great ease this time. He wielded the carving knife with great skill and finished carving the talisman in less than an hour.
"It's done." Su Feng stretched and let out a heavy sigh of relief. "I'll give this purification spell to Uncle Fu when the time comes."
After all, Uncle Fu is quite old. Wearing this purification talisman can nourish his body, protect him, and prolong his life.
Su Feng never neglects those around him.
Rumbling--
Just then, a clap of thunder suddenly sounded outside the window.
Then, as expected, the torrential rain arrived, pouring down!
Raindrops splashed into the windowsill, and a fierce wind raged, making the wooden window creak and groan.
"It seems the weather is about to change in the next few days..."
Su Feng glanced out the window.
The sky was already a deep, dark black, and not a single star could be seen when looking up.
It's like a dark, empty void, swallowing everything...
After muttering something to himself, he closed the window.
"A rainy day is the perfect time for cultivation!"
Su Feng sat back down on the edge of the bed, took out the magic bead, and placed it to one side.
Listening to the sound of rain outside the window while steadily absorbing the spiritual energy within the magic orb, the atmosphere is excellent.
He has now broken through to the fifth level of the Nascent Soul stage, and it seems that he is only a little bit away from the sixth level.
I believe it won't be long before we break through...
