Chapter 73.2
Editor: Jodi
The second rough stone Bai Jing was about to solve was rough stone no. 4060.
It was a pear skin crust rough stone that was flat and elliptical in shape and that which weighed about forty kilograms, with a very thin skin.
The python belt on it was very light in color, extending from the top to the bottom, with several clumps of pine blossoms at the bottom that were difficult to discern. This type of pine blossom shape resembled white bran, making it difficult for people with poor eyesight to notice.
Because the skin of the pear skin crust rough stone was very thin, most people only just shone a strong light along the crust.
However as they didn’t see any obvious green from the inside, they believed that the probability of green appearing inside was very low, or that to green in it wasn’t vivid enough to warrant a high bid.
What’s more this piece of rough stone didn’t have locks or cracks, so it escaped being inflated by people, causing Bai Jing to be able to buy it for 2.6 million starcoins.
Flipping the rough stone over, he started grinding along the clumps of pine blossoms at the bottom, and soon, green about two fingers width was revealed.
“Huh? That’s not right, I’ve seen this rough stone before. There was clearly no green.”
“Maybe your eyesight isn’t good enough.”
“Hasn’t God Yun just rubbed green out?”
“He is really, amazing!!”
“It’s of the hibiscus variety, and the color is very bright!”
Bai Jing rubbed around the opening a few times, however this time a brownish stone surface was revealed, with only the middle two fingers wide portion showing jadeite.
“What’s going on here?”
“It’s not a rise in bet??”
“No wonder I couldn’t see any green even after shining a strong light on it, it’s because there’s only this much green in total. It would be strange if he could find more!”
“Just watch God Yun continue to unravel the rough stone.”
Bai Jing put the abrasive grinding wheel down then switched to a laser knife to prepare to cut the rough stone.
However instead of cutting it horizontally, he stood the oval rough stone upright then cut it from top to bottom along the opening.
The deep blue light flickered, then along with his clean and sharp cuts, the crowd finally saw the approximate outline of the jadeite.
It turns out the jadeite was actually in the shape of a triangle!!
And the opened window was at the tip of the triangle, so naturally what they saw was very small, and no green could be seen from the surrounding crust, because the jadeite was inside the oval rough stone!
[Damn, powerful, really powerful!]
[If it were someone else, they would have ruined it a long time ago right?]
[Not only is God Yun’s ability in gambling on rough stones strong, his ability in unraveling rough stones is also unparalleled!!]
[My mom asked me why I’m kneeling while watching a live broadcast?]
[My scalp is tingling, God Yun is too strong!]
Even experienced stone solvers might not be able to solve this jadeite in a perfectly intact manner.
Because if it was rubbed, even if all the crusts of the entire rough stone was rubbed off, only that tip would be left.
And if it was cut, with only a two finger wide cut, it would be impossible to judge the direction of the jadeite. Afraid that if one cut down, this piece of jadeite would also be split in half!
“God Yun, how did you figure it out?”
Someone couldn’t contain their curiosity and dared to ask.
Obviously, this question was on more than one person’s mind, as dozens of pairs of eyes all looked at Bai Jing, their eyes shimmering with a thirst for knowledge.
Bai Jing picked the cut crust up: “Look, there are several clusters of relatively compact pine blossoms on top. They aren’t a lot, but need to be identified carefully.”
Bai Jing’s fair, slender fingers handed the crust to the young man who was beside him, one who took it with trembling hands, his mind a whirl that was filled with ‘God Yun handed it to me with his own hands’. How could he care about whatever pine blossoms?
And unable to stand watching this, one of the people next to him snatched the crust from his hands, then one by one, the crowd began studying it with a magnifying glass.
They didn’t have God Yun’s good eyesight, so they had to rely on magnifying glasses.
Bai Jing: “Generally, where there are pine blossoms, there will be green, so I judged that this part at the bottom would be able to produce green.
But after shining a strong light on it, I found that apart from this small area, no green was seen elsewhere.
Which meant that there was a possibility that it was a thin layer of green skin, as well as another possibility that the green had gone in, but that it had gone in deep.”
“And the python belt of this rough stone extends from the top to the bottom, so I guessed that it was the second possibility, which meant that the jadeite inside had gone straight into the interior, so it can only be cut vertically.”
After Bai Jing finished speaking, everyone around clapped, and the applause lasted for a long time.
His every step, from identifying the pine blossoms, to speculating on the distribution of green, to studying the direction of the python belt, was logical and satisfied people’s curiosity completely.
And this also proved that God Yun’s control over jadeites and rough stones had reached an unprecedented level!!
How old was he again?
They remembered that his profile showed that he was 20 years old.
This was simply too terrifying.
Even for someone that was an advanced Stone Gambler, it was because he/she had relied on their many years of gambling experience as well as their talent to rise up, however Gu Yun, at such a young age, actually had such high achievements in stone gambling.
Then by the time he was 25, 30, how far would he have reached?
No, he didn’t need five to ten years, because at this rate, afraid he would reach the peak within a year, touching that unreachable position!
