Urban All-Round Master

Chapter 827: Chapter 846: Super Treasure Appraiser

”You say you want this stone?” The boss looked at Lin Zifeng in surprise, thinking he had misheard.

This stone, which wasn’t even worthy of being called raw material and was used to prop up a table, actually had someone interested in it.

”Yes, I want this one.” Lin Zifeng said seriously, pointing at the stone.

”Bro, you aren’t messing with me, are you? This stone is used to support a table leg. If you need, I have a lot of different stones here. Maybe you should pick a few more suitable ones?”

The boss was a middle-aged man with a scruffy beard, who seemed like an honest person at a glance.

His years of experience in selling stones here told him that the stone Lin Zifeng pointed at definitely didn’t have anything valuable inside.

”I just want this one. Boss, name your price. How much for this stone? I’ll buy it.” Lin Zifeng persisted.

”Bro, don’t blame me for not warning you. Whether you can cut out something good or not, you can’t regret it later. The chosen material cannot be exchanged; that’s the rule here.”

”Don’t worry, I’ll take this stone. Whether it yields anything is my business. I won’t hold anyone responsible, I assure you.”

Lin Zifeng laughed heartily, waving his hand, and the idlers around, also curious, were entertained by the commotion, with over a dozen people full of curiosity.

Even Silence pulled Lin Zifeng’s sleeve and whispered, ”Big Brother Lin, this is just an ordinary stone, you don’t really want to cut this, do you?”

”Heh, little Bodyguard, even a blind man can guess there’s nothing special about this stone, just an ordinary one used under a table leg. You’re not really stupid enough to do what others wouldn’t even bother to do, are you?” Gao Yuan beside him looked on with amusement.

”Yeah, it’s just a stone. Even if you have money, you shouldn’t waste it like this, right?”

”Wow, rich people nowadays are different. They dare to cut even a normal stone, truly wasteful!”

Hearing Lin Zifeng wanting to cut that table-supporting stone, the surrounding gossip immediately erupted.

None of them could understand Lin Zifeng’s foolishness.

However, at the corner of Lin Zifeng’s cold lips was powerful confidence, and he signaled with a look to the boss.

”I’m taking this one.”

”Bro, since you’ve decided on this stone, I won’t charge you like the other stones. How about fifty bucks for this one?”

”Fifty bucks! Boss, you’re robbing me! This worthless stone can’t be worth fifty bucks?!”

Gao Yuan’s eyes widened; a stone like this could be picked up easily outside, and it would cost thirty bucks? Isn’t that robbery?

”Bro, we have to pay a site fee to operate here, you can’t expect me to go bankrupt, right?” the boss said helplessly.

Everyone present was watching, eager to see if this guy could really cut out anything.

”Fifty bucks, it’s worth it.” Lin Zifeng pulled out his wallet and tossed the boss a hundred-yuan bill.

”No need for change.” Lin Zifeng said cheerfully.

The boss, seeing this, broke into a grin. Just getting fifty bucks for this stone felt like an incredible windfall. This guy even gave him a hundred!

This deal was absolutely a huge profit.

”Please, boss, help me find someone to cut it open.”

”I want to see what comes out of this ordinary stone.”

At this moment, a specialist in stone-cutting squeezed out of the crowd.

He had been doing this for years here and had never seen someone like Lin Zifeng randomly pick a stone to cut, and he too became interested.

”Thank you, sir.” Lin Zifeng smiled faintly, ignoring the odd looks from everyone present, and waved his hand directly.

The stone-cutting specialist then began to cautiously cut open the stone.

Everyone held their breath, eyes fixed.

The initial knife cuts were rather aggressive and clumsy.

But as the knife went halfway through, a small puff of mist surprisingly emerged from within!

Gasp—

The stone-cutting specialist suddenly took a sharp intake of breath.

Exclaimed, ”There’s really something here!”

”No way? This thing actually has something inside?”

”Are you kidding me? Even a worthless stone can yield something?”

The crowd began to stir slightly, with all their eyes focused on the cutting line.

The cutting specialist’s forehead was sweating; his years of cutting experience told him that this find was definitely worthwhile, and the fifty bucks Lin Zifeng spent was absolutely worth it!

Even Silence felt tense, as the mist inside thickened and kept rising.

Lin Zifeng’s eyes shone with his x-ray vision, and he had already sensed the green object inside.

Though not large, it definitely exceeded the value of fifty bucks.

Finally, the cutting specialist slowly sliced open the last bit, and the burst of green immediately dazzled everyone!

”Damn, there’s really something here!”

”What the heck! Can a stubborn stone actually yield something? Is there a monkey hidden inside?”

”...”

”Bro, this material you bought is definitely worth it, it’s a large piece of jade!” The cutting specialist said excitedly.

”What! Jade! There’s jade inside!”

The boss who received Lin Zifeng’s hundred bucks immediately widened his eyes like bronze bells when he heard jade was cut out from inside!

”No way? There’s really jade inside?”

Someone doubted.

”Damn it, I’ve been cutting materials for years, are you questioning my judgement?”

The cutting specialist shouted, extremely displeased: ”This piece of jade is at least several kilograms, and although the quality isn’t top-notch, if it’s finely polished and crafted, it can definitely sell for thousands!”

Now, everyone’s gaze focused once again on Lin Zifeng.

From initial questioning laughter to now admiration, it was a world of difference!

”Wow, boss, how many more materials do you have here? I’ll buy them all.”

Finally, someone showed greed, offering a high price to buy up all the materials from the boss.

Jokingly, even the least likely stone under a table leg could produce jade, so what about the other materials? They must be off the charts!

And for these treasure-hunting guys, not many of them lacked money. What they’re doing is making money multiply.

More of them are out-of-town jewelry processors.

”Bro, I’ll offer a hundred thousand for this material you just cut, can you sell it to me?”

Now, someone had already started asking to buy the material Lin Zifeng just cut out, and this price certainly wasn’t low.

”Bro, I’ll give you half a million to pay for all your Time today, can you help me select materials?”

”Bro, I...”

What was originally a small trial experiment turned out with everyone believing Lin Zifeng was a Treasure Appraiser, each one competing to buy Lin Zifeng’s time tonight and have him select stones for them.

This left Lin Zifeng at a loss for words...
