176 Isn’t This Joke a Little Too Big?
After getting Shen Baitian’s approval, Zhang Chunhong immediately took action.
In fact, the raw stone had already been cut open.
However, in order to make things difficult for them, Ye Feng purposely used glue to stick them on.
Therefore, Zhang Chunhong and the others did not have to spend too much effort to remove it.
As they carefully opened it, a refreshing emerald green color was immediately revealed.
Zhang Chunhong didn’t know much about jade. She just thought that the color looked good.
She then pointed the incision at the camera.
“This is the cut of this raw stone. The color is nice, right?”
The live broadcast room immediately exploded.
[D*mn, there’s really jade inside? Isn’t this color too beautiful?]
[Where are the few people who said they were going to bet 5,000 or 10,000? Come out for a walk or two?]
[What about the one who said that if there’s jade, he would eat this stone?]
[The problem is that he can’t afford it. Since there’s jade inside, it’s probably not cheap. It’s at least a few million.]
Just as the crowd was in a heated discussion…
On the other side of the stream, Feng Mengquan felt as if he had been struck by lightning.
He stood there in a daze, not moving at all.
Seeing that his grandfather was not moving, Feng Xiao thought that the video call had jammed. He quickly shook his phone. “Grandpa, is the signal bad over there?”
Feng Mengquan seemed to wake up from a dream and mumbled, “It’s the Emperor Jade? I didn’t expect to see such a large piece of Emperor Jade in my lifetime. This old man can die with no regrets!”
Feng Xiao looked at him in confusion. “Grandpa, what do you mean by dead or alive? Is a single raw stone worth that much?”
Feng Mengquan was excited when he heard his grandson’s words. “What do you mean by ‘do you have to’? This is the f*cking Emperor Jade! Do you think it’s necessary?”
Feng Xiao pouted helplessly. “If you like it, I can help you bid for it.”
Feng Mengquan immediately reacted. “Hurry, hurry up and bid for it. Don’t let anyone take it away.”
Feng Xiao nodded. “But I don’t have that much money on me. You’ll have to transfer the money to me first. Since it’s the Emperor Jade, it should be worth at least 10 million, right?”
Although he was from a jade family, he was not very interested in this stuff. He did not know much about jade. He only knew that this Emperor Jade was a very good jade, but he did not know the specific price.
When Feng Mengquan heard this, it was as if he had heard a joke. “10 million? Are you dreaming? This is the f*cking Emperor Jade!”
Feng Xiao scratched his head in embarrassment. “Grandpa, don’t curse! How much do you think it is?”
Feng Mengquan excitedly extended five fingers. “This raw stone is worth at least this much.”
Feng Xiao was a little shocked. “50 million? Isn’t this too expensive? Is it really worth that much money?”
Feng Mengquan almost vomited blood. “50 million? It’s 500 million!”
“Pfft…”
Feng Xiao, who was about to take a sip of Coke to calm himself down, spat it out on his phone screen.
“How much is it? 500 million? This broken stone is worth 500 million?”
Feng Mengquan was once again furious. “This is f*cking Emperor Jade, and it’s such a big piece of it. This is the best of the best. What kind of lousy stone do you think this is?”
Feng Xiao took a long time to recover. “The problem is, do we have that much money?”
Feng Mengquan’s eyes were bloodshot and he looked like he had gone mad.
“I’ll buy this material even if I have to go bankrupt. Help me bid for it immediately, at 500 million… No, to be on the safe side, you can pay 550 million, and I’ll go get the money.”
Although Feng Xiao was shocked, he still followed his grandfather’s instructions and posted a top comment.
[Senior Zhang, my grandpa is willing to pay 550 million yuan to buy this raw jade. Can you help me ask if Campus Belle Shen is willing to sell it?]
After this comment was posted, the entire comment section was silent for a few seconds.
Then, it exploded like a deep-water bomb.
[F*ck! 550 million? Are you f*cking kidding me?]
[It should be a typo, right? He was going to say 55 million, right?]
[55 million is already quite scary. Can a stone be sold for that much?]
[Didn’t you hear what he just said? This is a raw jade stone, not an ordinary stone.]
[So what if it’s a raw jade stone? Even gold isn’t this expensive!]
[Some jadeite is much more expensive than gold.]
Zhang Chunhong was just about to put the raw stone back in its original place and continue to explore.
At this moment, she saw the top comment.
Her hand trembled and she almost dropped the raw stone.
She looked at it carefully again and confirmed that she was not mistaken.
“Student, did you type something wrong? Can you publish it again?”
Just as she finished asking, Feng Xiao sent another message.
[I didn’t type it wrong. My grandfather offered 550 million. As long as Shen Baitian agrees, we can transfer the money to her right now.]
This time, the comments section exploded.
[Oh my god! It really was 550 million? This is too f*cking ridiculous!]
[You must be joking. Who would spend so much money on a stone?]
[I don’t think it’s a joke. He’s going to use almost 100,000 yuan just by looking at the top comments and gifts tonight.]
[Besides, his grandfather is the president of the Jade Association, Feng Mengquan. He wouldn’t make such a joke.]
[Then it must be true. This stone is really worth more than 500 million?]
In just a short while, the number of people in the live broadcast room soared again.
It had reached an astonishing 20,000 people.
Most of the students in Zhonghai University had probably come to watch.
Zhang Chunhong’s hand, which was holding the microphone, started to tremble. She quickly turned to look at Shen Baitian.
“Baitian, it’s the same student from earlier. He’s willing to buy this raw stone for 550 million.”
When Shen Baitian heard this, she immediately stood rooted to the ground.
550 million?
Wasn’t this joke a little too much?
