Chapter 67 Much Cheaper

"If that's the case, then you don't need to spend that unnecessary money at all, you just need to purchase some raw jade stones and have a master craft them into polished pieces. Even the trimmings from good jade can be suitable for your use. Of course, the trimmings from good jade are not cheap either, but they are certainly much more affordable than the jade pendant you were just asking about." Tang Yahui spoke upon hearing this, her heart growing increasingly curious about what this young man in front of her intended to do with these jades.

Jade has been associated with many ethereal legends involving gods and ghosts in the folk customs since ancient times, which is why many ancient nobles chose to be buried with jade instead of gold and silver. Even now, many people still believe that jade can ward off evil spirits, protect the home, and avert disasters, and so they often have jade carved into shapes like Guanyin, ruyi, dragons, tigers, and pixiu.
