Not long after, Lu Yunfeng’s car stopped in front of a very famous stone gambling shop in the capital. Lu Yunfeng explained that most of the raw materials inside were from jade mines in Myanmar. The quality of the raw materials here was better, and the possibility of hitting a green vein was higher.
There was once a person who was so lucky that his stone actually contained imperial jade. After that, this stone gambling stone became even more famous.
There were those who were lucky with their gambles, but unlucky losers were even more common. There had only been one case of imperial jade in the past decade, so most people lost nine times out of ten when gambling stones.
The group got out of the car, and Chi Shuyan heard excited bids being called out in the distance. Lu Yunfeng explained, “Someone’s stone is probably green inside.”
On the side, Lu Chengfu, who was a noob, was very curious. “So you win if it’s green?”
Lu Yunfeng said, “How can it be that simple?”
Lu Yunfeng brought them inside. He explained that there were two types of stone gambling: for cut stones and for whole stones.
Cut stones were raw jade stones that had been cut by the sellers. In the industry, this was also called “opening a window.” It was also possible to scrape a bit off the surface of a stone.
Whether it was opening a window or scraping the stone, the purpose was to reveal if the raw stone was green inside. As long as it was green, it would prove that there was jade inside the stone, and the price would shoot up.
Gambling on whole stones meant that bets were placed directly on stones that weren’t cut. The buyer could only judge based on his own eyesight and luck, then cut open the stone and take action when the market was good.

At that moment, the stone that the buyer had just opened was probably green. Taking advantage of the market situation, he wanted to sell it.
Lu Yunfeng had also seen too many of these types of people who did well enough in the beginning, but suffered a loss in the end. Of course, there were also people who took advantage of the market situation to give the buyer a satisfactory price. After the stone changed hands, whether it turned out priceless or worthless no longer had anything to do with the original owner.
That was why Lu Yunfeng said that all bets were based on luck.
Although this was an impromptu trip, Chi Shuyan still had some basic understanding of how stone gambling worked. When they entered, the price had already reached 10 million.
However, the original buyer was greedy, and refused to sell the stone. When it was cut open, there was indeed green inside, but the green area was pretty much ruined by a streak of black lichen. To some extent, the other party had still lost this gamble.
The buyer who had been so excited earlier was now hugging his head and crying in pain, a disbelieving expression on his face.
At the thought that his sister-in-law wanted his help with stone gambling, Lu Chengfu felt immense pressure.
Chi Shuyan patted Lu Chengfu on the shoulder. “Don’t be nervous. Let’s go and pick out some scraps first. If we lose, it’s on me!”
Who knew where Qi Hao got his confidence from, but he said, “Sister-in-law, look at mine later! I promise it’ll be green!”
Li Yu wasn’t to be outdone. He squeezed in with the two boys and said, “Me too!”
Before Chi Shuyan could speak, a woman in a pretty red dress on the side suddenly sneered and mocked, “Senior Brother, this is a stone gambling shop, right? Those who don’t know better are treating it like a vegetable market, and are saying whatever they want. Since when can any Tom, Dick or Harry enter this place? And you want to bet it’s green? This is too funny!”
The man who was addressed as senior brother originally wanted to follow up with a few sarcastic remarks, but when he saw the beautiful Chi Shuyan, he immediately corrected himself. “Miss, this must be your first time gambling stones! I advise you not to play with this thing if you don’t know anything! Is gambling stones something that ordinary people can afford?”
