Stone-cutting

"Offset them with ores?" Lin Yichen was stunned. He remarked, "Master Ou, I'm afraid that it's inappropriate, isn't it?"

Ou Yangming stared at him and asked, "Why is it inappropriate?"

Lin Yicheng explained with a bitter smile, "Master Ou, I'll be honest with you. These ores are of exceptional conditions, so they're going to be sent to the prefecture along with the pieces of equipment. That said, I'm not having too high an opinion of the ores because I'm reluctant to sell them to you, but because the ores' path isn't simple at all. Before stone-cutting is carried out, even a deity can't confirm if they actually carry gems!"
