"Alright, let's take a look at this raw stone," Ran Yunsheng said.
Ran Yan had purchased this raw stone for fifty-six guan, including twenty guan for guessing the price, making a total of seventy-six guan, which was the highest price for raw stone tonight.
Seventy-six guan was a sum most people could not earn in their lifetime. Nearly everyone's gaze was focused on the jade cutter's tools.
On the platform, a new round of price guessing commenced. Four raw stones were left; Yang Langjun hesitated for a moment before choosing one of them. The others sensed his mood, feeling a bit puzzled, one individual backed out of the bidding, and two others competed with him.
Suddenly, an exclamation came from the jade cutter.
"What fine jade!" the cutter exclaimed as he looked at a piece of jade, faintly shimmering blue-green, revealed from the rough stone, his voice trembling with excitement.
