Chapter 101 - 101 Intuition
Vivian said mysteriously, “Intuition. These pieces are all similar. You can’t tell either.”
Fred paused for a moment. Indeed, no one could tell the difference, but he had no intuition.
Fred suddenly remembered that his favorite piece was still in someone else’s hands. He was afraid someone might have missed it, so he turned to the man in the leather jacket and said, “Brother, I’ll have to take a look at this raw stone.”
The other party returned the stone, but his eyes were still eagerly following the stone, which made Fred feel that this stone was good.
Vivian took it and touched it, and found that the temperature was also high, but it was the lowest of the five. After knowing the price of 2.2 million, she shook her head at Fred without hesitation.
Winston took a glance at Vivian. After all, she was just guessing and didn’t even see the inside at all, so she couldn’t see the situation inside the raw stone at all. When someone asked for her opinion at this time, even the closest friend wouldn’t dare to give a definite opinion. After all, the stakes were too high. What if the buyer picked the right one and the person who gave the suggestion was wrong? Whom could he blame then?
Of the five raw gemstones, Winston and Fred had the same opinion. They both felt the one that Vivian rejected was better.
Fred was still a little hesitant.
“My intuition is particularly strong this time,” Vivian said softly after seeing it.
If it weren’t for the fact that they were senior and junior and that Fred had taken care of her so much, Vivian would have just given him some advice and left him alone like the last time.
But now that she knew which one was better, Vivian’s protective nature made it impossible for her to see Fred spend a higher price on the lowest-valued raw stone.
Hearing Vivian’s affirmative tone and thinking of Vivian’s luck and talent, Fred was slightly biased toward her.
Just as Fred was about to put it down, the man in the leather jacket next to him heard their conversation and hurriedly said, “Big Brother, if you don’t want to buy it, then I’ll pay for it.”
If it weren’t for Fred’s understanding of Winston’s lazy personality, he would have thought that the man next to him was a helper he had found. After all, shopkeepers often used this kind of trick in this circle.
Fred knew the man really wanted it, but his decision wavered again. He moved his hand away from the man and said, “What’s the hurry? Let me take a look.”
After comparing for a few more minutes, Fred made up his mind to believe Vivian.
If he really lost, he could only blame himself for not being strong enough. He let out a sigh of relief, put down the raw stones in his hand, and chose the two stones that Vivian had suggested.
Seeing this, the man in the leather jacket hurriedly took the raw stone, paid for it with a smile, and then left quickly.
After Fred paid the 3.73 million, Winston asked, “Are you going to open it now?”
Fred nodded and jokingly said, “Of course. If there’s nothing good, I’ll come to you for revenge.”
Winston’s interest was piqued. If he wasn’t mistaken, that person had been walking in the direction of cutting the Jade.
Winston asked the stall owner beside him to help him keep an eye on it and give him a call if there was anything. Then, he followed Fred and Vivian to watch the cutting process.
Many people were waiting in line to cut the jade. They had to go to the designated position to get a number plate first. The two of them found the man in the leather jacket in front of them.
The cutting machine was like a dice cup. Only when it was opened would one know whether it was good or bad.
An hour later, it was the man in the leather jacket’s turn.
The few of them squeezed to the front to watch, with Leon and two bodyguards protecting Vivian in the middle.
The effect of the raw stone that cost 2.2 million was not bad. Although there was a big crack on the floating flower ice seed, the raw stone was wide enough to avoid the cracks and produce many finished products.
The man only cut one side before stopping. Many Jade shops and small Jewelers were waiting to receive their goods and offered him a price, but the man rejected them all and left with the raw stone in high spirits.
Fred judged that it wouldn’t be a problem to sell it for four million yuan based on the quality of the first page.
Although he was a little regretful that he didn’t buy it, he was an old player after all, and he quickly adjusted his mentality.
