At this point, the first batch of rough jade had been sold off, fetching around seventy guan.
Immediately after, the second batch was presented on stage.
"Ladies and gentlemen..." the stall owner ascended the stage, just about to speak, when he was suddenly interrupted by the exclamation of the master cutting the stone nearby.
"Congratulations to Young Master Yang! Well done!" The stone-cutter handed a pigeon-egg-sized piece of jade to Young Master Yang, sighing, "Such a large piece with such high quality, Young Master Yang's spending of twenty guan was not in vain! Even if you were to take this uncarved piece of rough jade to a jewelry store, you could easily fetch around forty guan for it! Plus these two smaller pieces, you've truly made a fortune."
Only then did a smile of joy appear on Young Master Yang's face as he clasped his hands and returned the courtesies to the people thanking him.
