"Well, the little girl is good." Teddy praised, and immediately asked: "Do you want a check or transfer?"
"Transfer." Ashley said. She took her specially opened bank card out which she created solely for this trip.
"Alright." Teddy immediately called to transfer money.
In a few minutes, Ashley received a text message in her newly registered sim card. The 30 million already arrived and Ashley gave the jade to Teddy.
"This lady, do you still need to continue to solve the other wools?" asked Birk.
Ashley nodded. She placed the wool next to the stone cutter master.
Teddy, who got the multicolored jade, was ready to leave. But once he heard that Ashley still had a wool to be cut open, he stopped and watched.
Because Ashley solved a piece of high-class jade, everyone was excited about the next stone.
Although they all felt that Ashley could not have such good luck the second time around, they watched a new round of cutting. They couldn't help but feel excited.
It took more time to rub the stone than to cut it, but everyone was very patient.
After a while, a little green was revealed on the stone, and the stone-cutting master shouted for the second time: "It's green! It's green again!."
"Oh my God, this girl's luck is too awesome! There are two out of five!"
This time, the boss of the store really had the urge to faint. His heart was really bleeding!
Because it only revealed a small piece of green, it was impossible to judge what kind of variety it was this time.
Birk continued to rub the stone. The more the wool was polished, the more excited the hearts of everyone!
When the middle layer has been wiped out by him, the variety of jade started to show up for everyone to see.
"God! No! It turned out to be a high ice type jade!"
High ice, second only to glass type, was also a top jade, but it was above the glutinous rice!
This jade was crystal clear, full of watery luster. It was no other than the old pit high ice. Although the head was only one-third of the previous glutinous rice, the price was not much lower than that multicolored glutinous rice.
Ashley hastily absorbed the lucky aura. She had already felt that her fatigue from overusing her luck unique skill started to replenish bit by bit. In this trip, Ashley gained experience and money. She wanted to know the upper limit of this special physique of hers.
When the jade has been completely solved, there was someone who could not wait to shout: "I bid 20 million!"
This was Teddy's voice and Teddy's shouting has scared off many people. After all, there were a few rich people here.
And the man who had not robbed Teddy before was anxious. "I said Mr. Teddy, did you just say that there is a better waiting for me? How come, you are robbing this from me! 25 million dollars!"
This high-class jadeite was indeed worth more than the glutinous rice variety jade, but because of the small size, the 20 million was almost the same. If the jewelry is sold, it could earn about 10 million. .
Teddy did not feel embarrassed at all, and he said: "Everyone has the power to bid!"
"You······" The man wanted to cry without tears, but if Teddy called for a bid again, he really could not follow.
"Okay, this piece will be given to you! But you owe me a set of jade for my little grandson!" Teddy was not a person who was greedy. Although good jade was rare, but he and Lim still have a bit of friendship, there was no need to tear the face for a piece of jade.
When Lim heard it, he suddenly smiled: "You really don't want to suffer a loss."
Therefore, Lim spent 25 million to buy the second jade that Ashley opened.
All of a sudden, Ashley earned 55 million dollars!
Although Ashley's face was still a calm, but her heartbeat almost could not withstand the acceleration of speed from excitement!
If it wasn't for the current situation, she would have screamed out already!
"Miss, hello, I am the chairman of Lim Jewelry Ltd., Lim. This is my business card. If Miss opens another top grade jade, I can buy it at a reasonable price, and please ask Miss to give priority to me."
Lim was convinced by Ashley. Whether it was luck or knowledge, it was really rare to see two high class jades in five pieces of wool. This probability was simply astonishing!
Last night, Ashley checked the domestic jewelry brand and its founder and family members online, so naturally knew Lim Jewelry Ltd.
Lim Jewelry Headquarters was not in YN City, but there were stores all over the country. The total assets were also more than 2 billion dollars. It belonged to the domestic third-line brand, and the family founder, Lim, was about forty years old this year.
Purchasing jade did not require Lim to come in person. He only came to inspect the storefronts in YN City, and he just took a look at the gambling stone street. This was a good harvest for him!
Lim and Ashley took the initiative to make a good deal and Ashley was too happy to cooperate!
Therefore, when Ashley would open a jade next time, she would sell one or two pieces to Lim.
Ashley readily took the business card and said: "Well, if I open the top grade jade, I will give priority to Mr. Lim."
"Miss, don't forget this old man. You can also contact me; I will not bid less than Lim." Teddy was not willing to show weakness so he immediately took out his business card and placed it directly into the hands of Ashley.
Although she did not know the identity of Mr. Teddy, seeing he did not hesitate to bid 30 million dollars, she knew that he was worthy for cooperation like Lim.
In this trip of hers in YN City, Ashley was glad to establish connection to these potential connections. She also knew that if she wanted power, she needed to connect with influential people to stand firm in the circle of the highest echelons.
"Well, I will not forget Mr. Teddy for sure." Ashley laughed.
Getting Ashley's answer, Teddy was satisfied. He had the gut feeling that this was not his first encounter with this little miss. As a businessman who already experienced many storms, Teddy felt that a calm little girl in front of this huge money was definitely not simple.
On the other hand, Ashley excused herself.
Not long after Ashley left, the news of the store solving two pieces of high class jadeites was spread. Many people came here, and the business of this store has also risen.
It's just that these people were not as lucky as Ashley.
x-x-x-x-x
After Ashley left the store, she entered another store. This time, she was able to solve another round of pot of gold for her. Though it took a toll on her body, she gained a lot more than she hoped for.
The top grade jade she got this time was in a size of an apple. The apple green jade was slightly larger with half the size of a football.
Finally, the apple green jade was sold at a price of 8 million dollars.
Ashley continued to visit, after visiting five or six stores, she received seven or eight pieces of top grade jade. The sizes varied, of course and the value was not the same. There were as small as baby's fist while there were ones that were big as a kid's head.
In addition to seven or eight pieces of top grade jade, there were five or six pieces of middle and grade jades.
As for the lower jades that contained small luck value, Ashley immediately ignored it.
Ashley sensed a lot of luck value in the antique and jade area of this China Town—as expected. But she refused to bit more than she could chew for fear of being targeted. She was contented of what she gained right now.
This was more than enough for Ashley to start a business. As for what business to start, she was still undecided, leaving it up to fate at least until she finished filming the movie 'Unmasked'.
So far, the jadeite that Ashley has solved made her earn a total of 86 million.
Because the grade of these wool materials was top quality and expensive, she spent a total of 3 million dollars. Deducting her startup capital, she made a profit of 83 million dollars for just this day!
Ashley still got unsolved wools at her disposal and she intended to sell a few pieces of these to Mr. Teddy and Lim.
By Sunday, before Ashley left YN City, she made a prompt decision to take one last stroll in the antique and jade market.
Ashley went into a store again. This store was obviously much larger than the ones she went to previously, and there were many more people with much more inventory of wools and window jades.
After listening to the arguments of others, Ashley only knew that this store has just received a batch of fine wool, and the rate of getting a green was relatively high.
Of course, if one would calculate the green rate probability, one had to look at luck!
Ashley directly used her luck and swept the wools around her. She really saw several pieces of green and one of them was still red!
Two green jades were slightly smaller than a football; one was as big as two apples, and the one was red—half as big as a football!
That red one… Ashley liked it at first glance.
So, she hurriedly took the cart and walked over to its direction calmly to stop arousing suspicion.
However, just when Ashley approached, the wool with red jade was taken by a middle-aged woman wearing fashionable clothes. Ashley could not help the sense of loss she felt. That was a good rare jade!
But she also knew the rules of gambling. As long as the wool was in the period of being watched, no one owned it until anyone would place it into their respective carts.
After receiving this fatal lesson for the first time, Ashley quickly took the other two pieces to her own hands—so as not to be picked up again.
Ashley has been staring at the piece of red jade with wool, just waiting for the woman to let go. She stood not far from the woman, ready to take action any moment.
"Lina, this wool is not good at all. It certainly won't be green," said a young man standing next to the woman.
"What do you know! The so-called green can't be seen even by those experts! The appearance may not be good but it does not mean there will be no green inside!" The woman argued.
Ashley was stunned a bit. She relied on her extraordinary physique, but this woman relied on her gut instincts!
Just when Ashley was about to give up the red jade, she heard the woman said: "However, if you really want to buy it, you still need to think clearly. Loss is loss and money is not blown by the wind after all."
In the end, the woman put the wool down, and remembered the label of the wool secretly. Although the woman looked at the wool, she had not made up her mind.
As soon as the woman left, Ashley immediately went to pick up the piece of wool—saved!
Fortunately, this woman was cautious or else, Ashley would miss this rare jadeite. This was a rare red imperial jade after all! It was not comparable to the multicolored glutinous jade!
Ashley continued to sweep the wools with luck and got two pieces of jade more.
These pieces of jade were not enough, but Ashley intended to pay the money first, find a place to put the wool to be packed, and then come back.
Because these wool materials were the finest wool that has just come in, it was more expensive. With a staggering amount of 10,000 dollars a pound to 20,000 dollars a pound, Ashley's five pieces of wools got a total of 93 pounds, adding up to 1.5 million dollars.
After Ashley went out to pack the wools, she came back again and pushed the cart to continue shopping.
Soon, Ashley found another piece of green jade, this time, the wool was relatively large. It was as big as two footballs combined!
Ashley immediately moved them to her own cart. From the gravity received, it is estimated that this piece must have fifty pounds and this piece of wool was 20,000 dollar a pound.
In other words, this piece of wool costs about one million!
Of course, Ashley did not care about this money. She knew that there was green. This was not a money-losing deal but a big profit!
Because of the jade inside, the value was far more than 10 million in her estimate.
"Ashley."
Just when Ashley put the jade into her cart, she heard someone calling her name. The voice was very familiar.
Ashley looked around until her eyes fell on Frederick—her friend who sent her the details about jades—who was surprised to see her too.
She smiled and said: "Frederick, you also come to see the newly arrived wools? I did not think you are in YN City!"
Frederick also had Teresa with him and a young man of about twenty-seven years old whose face was quite serious-looking.
When Teresa saw Ashley, the original good-looking face suddenly sank, and the eyes flashed with hostility. She knew who Ashley was by hearing it from Frederick, but this was the first time she saw her in person!
Ashley saw and felt that malice, but she did not give a damn.
"Yes! This shop is opened by an old acquaintance. Because they just received a batch of fine wool, so they let me know. So I came here to YN City to see the wools here." Frederick said, his face couldn't help but rejoicing. He was happy to have a friend who shared the same interests with him.
"I am also very interested in gambling, but I am just a novice you know," Ashley said.
"If you don't understand anything, you can ask me," Frederick said warmly.
"Okay!" Ashley did not reject Frederick's kindness. But with her luck, whether to ask or not was something she did not need to dwell on.
Seeing that Frederick was so welcoming to Ashley, Teresa immediately came over and said: "The surface of the jade stone has a weathered leather shell, which makes people unable to see the jade inside. So many people think that the jade gambling stone relies on luck. Many fools thought that good luck can open a good material, and if you have bad luck, you can't open it. This is actually a wrong idea."
