Chapter 482: Rising Fame
Wufu cut a piece of Peach Blossom Spring and sold it at a sky-high price, pushing the gambling stone event to a climax.
Immediately after, Wufu also won a piece of top-quality full green for the Hundred Treasures Silver Building, causing Wen Jian to laugh with squinted eyes. Though it was not as good as the Peach Blossom Spring, top-quality full green was extremely rare, and it weighed about Liu Jin.
Speaking of this stone, he almost missed it. After all, gambling on seed material was the most difficult, as cutting out jade from such a small weight relied heavily on experience and luck. But Wufu insisted that there would be no other opportunities if he missed this one. Seeing her unveil the Peach Blossom Spring and with luck on her side, he trusted her and bought the piece of seed material.
The result was full green, and the price increased seven or eightfold, making him so happy that he couldn’t stop smiling. However, as the Hundred Treasures Silver Building had its own design and carving department for jade and jewelry, they did not sell it but kept it for their own crafting.
Now, with Wufu consecutively unveiling two fine pieces of jade, everyone turned their attention to the name of the Hundred Treasures Silver Building. Moreover, some people who bought seed material came to Wufu and specifically asked for her help with stone-cutting.
Gambling on stones, apart from experience, also required luck. These people wanted to borrow Wufu’s good hand and luck.
Wufu was somewhat caught between laughter and tears, unable to refuse. With Wen Jian being very generous in lending people out, she went to help with stone-cutting.
Perhaps Wufu lived up to her name, embodying all the five blessings. Today she was full of fortune, as every stone she helped cut yielded jade, and the worst was merely a piece of inferior quality.
Now, the name Wufu echoed throughout the entire trade convention. True to her name and full of good fortune, she was indeed a lucky star.
Thus, by the end of the stone-gambling event, Wufu had met quite a few jade merchants. As for the labor fees for helping with the cutting, people were not stingy, rewarding her handsomely, and she made quite a bit of money.
