After traveling through time, I became the interstellar devil

Chapter 171: This is the jade that was loved ten thousand years ago

The old master nodded. Although he felt that it was waste stone, since the customer liked it, he would naturally follow the customer's wishes.

Soon, a piece of cut mutton-fat jade was placed in front of Ye Chen.

The old master started to cut the third stone, but Ye Chen started to fiddle with the mutton-fat jade in his hand.

He was lucky. The quality of this piece of jade was very good. After a little processing, it could be made into a low-level magical tool.

In the absence of spirit stones, using jade to set up the formation is also a good choice.

Ye Chen asked the apprentice for a few knives, and watched the master cut the stone while carving the mutton-fat jade in his hand.

Such a big piece of jade was cut into four parts by Ye Chen in a very wasteful way, from a not-so-round ball to four tiles.

"Such fine jade is perfect for carving a few amulets." Ye Chen chatted with Lan Xing through voice transmission.

"Give it to your friends?" Lan Xing said.

"Yeah." Ye Chen responded without stopping his movements, "I heard that the border star is quite dangerous. If they want to gain experience, they can't stay with me all the time."

But no matter how much experience he had, Ye Chen still didn't want his friends to be in any life-threatening danger, and the mutton-fat jade that was delivered to his doorstep was just right.

Lan Xing looked at Ye Chen with an unclear expression. Although this was a good idea, but... he had never received a gift made by Xiaolong himself.

As Ye Chen was speaking, he heard no more sound around him. He turned around and saw Lan Xing's mouth corners drooping a little. He was stunned for a moment and then he reacted immediately.

Oh no, he was so busy preparing things for others that he forgot about his boy mother.

Guilty sin.

A dragon is still a good one if he admits his mistakes and corrects them. Ye Chen was thinking about what to do for Lan Xing later when he heard exclamations from all around again.

"Amethyst, amethyst of such a deep color!"

Hearing this, Ye Chen also looked up. He remembered that the Purple Star Coin was made of amethyst, a universal energy mine.

Ye Chen had seen the purple star coin before, and its color was light purple, but the one in the old master's hand was dark purple. One of the characteristics of amethyst was that the darker the color, the more energy it contained.

Moreover, among lower civilizations, amethyst also has a certain collection value.

Although human civilization has successfully advanced to an intermediate civilization, the love for amethyst cannot be solved in a short time. Currently, there are still many people who like to collect amethyst raw ores.

At the same time, amethyst ore is also known as the most valuable investment. As long as it is not purchased at an extremely high price, it is basically a sure profit.

"Young master, I want this piece of Amethyst. How about one million star coins?" someone shouted.

At present, the stone in the master's hand has only shown a little color. I don't know what the quality will be like in the future. It is a gamble to offer a price now.

But if he could finally get an amethyst the size of a woman's fist, even if it wasn't as good as the current one, he would not lose anything.

But if it's just a layer as wide as a finger, you'd be at a big loss.

This is a gamble between two parties. If you are not confident enough or your mind is unstable, you might as well take action now.

"Not for sale." Ye Chen refused directly, "Just keep it open. It just so happens that I have a friend who also likes to collect raw amethyst ores. I'll go give it to him later."

Things worth millions of star coins were given away casually, and the onlookers once again gritted their teeth at Ye Chen's wealth. It was really frustrating to compare yourself with others.

Some people in the crowd looked at each other, winked at each other, and greedy looks appeared on their faces.

What a big fat sheep.

Ye Chen noticed several malicious gazes, but instead of restraining himself, he became even more flamboyant.

It seems that today's task can be completed easily.

The master craftsman continued to cut carefully, fearing that he would accidentally damage the precious amethyst inside.

The shop owner was watching happily from the side. As the owner of a raw stone shop, his mentality was very stable.

He is not afraid of customers making money in his store, but he is afraid that customers cannot make money. Only if there is money to be made can he become famous and attract more customers.

And when customers buy stones, he has already earned the money he deserves.

It is also because of this good mentality that the boss was able to open the largest raw stone shop on the entire street.

Soon, the master craftsman finished cutting the amethyst, and an irregular round piece about the size of a man's fist was sent to Ye Chen.

Ye Chen picked it up and took a look. The quality of this amethyst was quite good, and the color became darker as it went deeper into the stone. The center even had a purple-black color.

The onlookers looked on eagerly when they saw this, and they were extremely envious.

This piece of amethyst alone could fetch four or five million at an auction.

Together with the Black Star Crystal that was opened earlier, there were only three stones, but the man in front of him had already recovered almost one-third of his capital.

There are still thirty-seven stones behind, and each one is bigger than the last, and this is when we start from the smallest stone.

It's so enviable that my eyes are almost red.

However, the fourth and fifth pieces also produced energy stones, but they were lighter black gold crystals, of lower quality. The two pieces together were worth about 1,500 star coins, which was not as valuable as the original stone itself.

The boss took out the bill and looked at it. The price of the two raw stones was 23,000 star coins.

The crowd watching finally felt a little relieved, especially when they remembered that the second piece had turned into waste stone.

Ye Chen casually sold two pieces of low-quality black gold crystals. He was not interested in them.

Soon the master picked up the sixth stone and cut it several times in a row, but nothing came out of it. It was not until he cut the coconut-sized stone into the size of a fist that a very deep green color appeared.

"Another piece of waste stone." Someone gloated.

Ye Chen didn't even look at the person who was talking. He put away the four peace cards he was carving and said to the master: "Open them in their entirety."

Seeing this, the shop owner came over curiously and said with a smile: "The young master seems to like these unusable energy stones very much."

Ye Chen shook his head. He had no intention of hiding anything. "This is not an energy stone. This is a top-grade jade."

"Jade?" The shop owner muttered this slightly unfamiliar word.

Ye Chen nodded, "Ten thousand years ago, when humans had not yet left their home planet, jade was the most beloved treasure of the people at that time."

"There was also the concept of gambling on stones at that time, but there were no various energy stones like those in the interstellar space at that time. People gambled on jade and jadeite among the stones."

The people around listened to Ye Chen's description. Some looked down on him, thinking he was making up stories, while others were very interested.

After all, a rich young man who looks stupid and has a lot of money doesn't look like someone who would lie.

The shop owner was one of those who were interested. He asked curiously, "Are there different types of jade? The one you just saw was white, and the one in the hands of the master is green."
