I Made a Fortune By Raiding Houses In Ancient Times Chapter 181

Cao Shun swayed, staggered and threw himself on the jadeite stone. With trembling hands, he picked up a handful of water from the wooden basin on the side and sprinkled it on the newly cut jadeite.

A piece of white stone comes into view.

Cao Shun was almost crying, how could his jade be gone like this.

The onlookers sighed in their hearts.

Cao Shun touched the piece of material, raised his head for a while and said to the waiter, "Cut it again."

Seeing that Cao Shun was not reconciled, everyone can understand.

After all, the quality of the jadeite was really good when I cut it with the first cut. I didn't expect that the green color was gone when I cut it with the second cut.

If it were them, they wouldn't be willing to do it.

It's such a big piece of material, maybe there's jade on the other side.

It was with this idea in mind that Cao Shun asked the waiter to continue cutting.

Ling Chu glanced at the guy. He poured his inner energy into the knife in his hand. He cut jade as well as he cut cabbage. He seemed to have good martial arts skills.

This guy may have cut too much jade, and there is no expression on his face.

　　Hand rises, sword falls.

Still no green.

Cao Shunyou didn't give up and asked his assistant to cut the more than fifty centimeters of rough stone into more than ten pieces.

However, no matter how I cut it, I couldn't see any green anymore.

Cao Shun was so damaged that his intestines were blue. He bought this rough stone for more than three thousand taels. If he had sold it to Zhao Dong's family just now, he would have made more than forty thousand taels.

Why is he so greedy, thinking that if he cuts them all up, he can sell them at a higher price.

Cao Shun regretted it, but Zhao Xinxiang was extremely happy.

Fortunately, he didn't succeed in buying it just now, otherwise he would have lost fifty thousand taels in vain.

“What bad luck.” Cao Shun cried sadly and wanted to turn around and leave Cuiyu Pavilion.

However, Ling Chu called out, "Wait a minute."

Cao Shun turned around with a puzzled look on his face. He didn't know this Taoist nun, why should he call her?

Ling Chu saw his doubts and smiled and said, "Boss Cao, do you want to sell these cut materials? If the price is right, I want to buy it."

Before Cao Shun had time to speak, a sneer suddenly came from beside him, "I'm afraid you, a Taoist nun, are crazy because of your poverty. Do you still want to cut jadeite out of these waste materials?"

Lingchu glanced sideways at the county head of Dingyuan Prince's Mansion, and when he saw that she didn't stop the maid's ridicule, his eyes turned cold, "A dog takes a mouse, mind your own business."

Too lazy to pay attention to the maid whose expression changed, Ling Chu turned to Cao Shun and motioned to him to tell him the price.

Cao Shun did not expect that the Taoist nun called him to stop and actually wanted to buy the materials he had cut up.

After hesitating for a moment, Cao Shun said, "Give me five taels, and I'll give you all the ingredients."

Lingchu nodded and motioned for Xia Zhi to give him money.

Although Xia Zhi felt that it was a bit wasteful for her girl to spend five taels of silver to buy a pile of scrap stones, she didn't dare to say anything in front of everyone, so she took out an ingot of silver and handed it to Cao Shun.

After finishing the money, Ling Chu bent down and picked up a square piece of material from the pile of cut scraps.

Han Yao's eyes were full of disdain, and soon she changed to a kind-hearted look, "Miss Ling, your Ling Mansion is different from the past. You spent five taels just to buy such a useless stone. If your parents knew about it, I'm afraid... I want to blame you for spending money frivolously."

Ling Chu glanced at her lightly, then turned around and picked up a piece of charcoal. He drew a few lines on the piece of material in his hand, and then handed it to the man in charge of cutting, "Brother, please cut according to these lines."

The onlookers were about to leave, but after hearing Ling Chu's words, they stopped all of a sudden.

Does this Taoist nun really want to pick up the slack?

Almost no one is optimistic about Ling Chu. After all, this is a piece of scrap material that has just been cut. How can it be green?

The guy said nothing, nodded and took it, placing it on the ground and fixing it.

The knife in his hand started to fly, and he quickly finished cutting the scrap.

As soon as the guy's knife stopped, someone immediately exclaimed, "Ah...it's green." Seeing the green and transparent color, Han Yao's face darkened.

How can this be?

She was not the only one who was surprised, everyone present looked surprised.

Ling Chu motioned to Xia Zhi to pick up the piece of jade, and smiled lightly at everyone, "I wanted to cut it up for fun, but I accidentally picked it up."

Looking at the extremely beautiful piece of jade, Cao Shun wanted to slap himself. How could he miss such a good treasure?

Han Yao crumpled the handkerchief into a ball, smiled, and pretended to be curious, "Miss Ling, among so many scraps, why did you pick that piece alone? Do you know that there is jade in that piece?"

Why, naturally it was because she was curious and scanned it with the system.

But naturally she would not say anything about it.

Lingchu glanced sideways at the county lord and said with a smile, "As the saying goes, it's hard for an immortal to break an inch of jade. Who knows if there is jade in the stone. I'm just lucky, it just happened."

Even though he is just a disaster star, he still dares to show off his good luck to her.

Han Yao was angry in her heart, but she still had a smile on her face, "How lucky? I wonder if Miss Ling dares to take a bet with me and see who has better luck."

Ling Chu's smile was brighter than hers.

Just when everyone else thought she was about to nod in agreement, they unexpectedly heard her say softly, "Not interested."

Who does this county owner think she is? Does it mean that everyone in the world will revolve around her?

Han Yao's face froze and she almost couldn't keep the smile on her face.

Ling Chu glanced at her stiff face, turned around and left.

Being ignored like this, the anger in Han Yao's heart suddenly rose.

“Miss Ling, please stay. I'll use this hair crown as a gift. Are you interested?”

Ling Chu turned around and glanced at the golden hair crown in Han Yao's hand, "I won't bet."

Han Yao sneered in her heart, "Why don't you bet? Are you afraid of losing to me?"

Lingchu was speechless. Is the county owner mentally ill? Why did he insist on making a bet with her? "I'm afraid you'll cry if you lose."

“Miss Ling, don't you think the bracelet is not enough? This bracelet can also be used as a gift. Are you interested?” Han Yao took off the bracelet on her right hand.

This bracelet is a pair of the one pledged to Liu Gui. They were both given to her by the imperial concubine. I don't believe that this disaster star will not be moved.

Ling Chu was really moved when he saw the shiny and smooth bracelet.

“Okay, I'll make a bet with you.”

If she still refuses this advantage that is forcefully offered to her, she is looking down on such a beautiful bracelet.

That hair crown is just fine, this bracelet can be won to repair the system.

“How does the county owner want to bet?”

Han Yao snorted in her heart. She was indeed a country bumpkin who had never seen the world, but her heart was moved by just one bracelet.

“Is Miss Ling lucky?”

Lingchu frowned. This was a problem. Although she had a lot of things, it was really not suitable for betting.

“It doesn't matter if Miss Ling can't win the prize. If you win, I'll give you the hair crown and bracelet. But if you lose, just go back to the Taoist temple and never return to the capital. How about that?”

Ling Chu's eyes turned cold. The county lord insisted on making a bet with her. Could it be that the real purpose was to make her leave the capital and never come back?
