Trading system, I exchanged vegetables for golden pills.

It has to be said that people who cultivate themselves tend to have a lot of temper.

Ye Chen hasn't had a nosebleed in a long time; it seems he needs to take a bath to cool down.

Ye Chen regulated his breathing and the bleeding stopped. Just as he was about to wipe the bloodstains off the ground, the waiter bent down and squatted down.

"I'll handle this!"

Ye Chen looked down and almost couldn't stop the bleeding.

In the end, Ye Chen could only turn his attention to the stone.

There are many stones here, and Ye Chen saw several that looked quite nice, but the prices weren't cheap.

The largest stone is priced at over ten million.

It seems like there won't be any loss, but Ye Chen isn't selling it; using it alone would be a bit of a luxury.

At this moment, Ye Chen saw two people enter through the main entrance. He recognized one of them; it was Guo Jianbin, the general manager of Meiyuan Hotel.

The other person was a bit older, with an air of a master. Guo Jianbin seemed to respect him quite a bit and let him go first.

Guo Jianbin didn't notice Ye Chen, so Ye Chen didn't rush to greet him.

"Hehehe, Master Yuan, I'm really counting on you this time. I'll thank you handsomely if you help me out!" Guo Jianbin said warmly to the other party.

"Of course, of course!" Master Yuan nodded slightly and began to look at the surrounding stones with a generous stride.

Ye Chen thought to himself, "So this is what Guo Jianbin likes."

Gambling on jade is indeed a very expensive activity; you can make a lot of money, but you can also lose a lot.

No wonder he was in such a hurry to sell his villa to raise funds; it turns out he was playing this kind of money-burning game.

A villa is only enough for him to buy a few stones; he can't afford any larger stones.

Of course, if the price goes up, one stone could be exchanged for several villas.

It's all about high risk and high reward; the saying "one cut makes you poor, one cut makes you rich" comes from this.

Since they were busy choosing stones, Ye Chen didn't take the initiative to go up and greet them.

He started picking things out on his own.

To Ye Chen's disappointment, there wasn't that dazzling green on site, so he couldn't broaden his horizons.

In the end, he could only choose the best among the worst and picked four pieces of material, which were considered to be of relatively good quality.

Other options either have large stones with little material inside, or are of average quality and not cost-effective.

Those multi-million dollar pieces may look good when you cut a window into them, but they're not pure inside.

Ye Chen didn't know if it was worth the price, but using it to inscribe array patterns was a bit of a waste.

Ye Chen settled the accounts, and the amount was exactly 98, no more, no less.

The price was reasonable, so there was no doubt that we made a profit.

That's how useful perspective is here; if used for gambling on jade, getting rich quick doesn't seem impossible.

Ye Chen bought stones at a speed comparable to buying groceries, leaving the staff somewhat bewildered.

The female staff member who had pointed out Ye Chen's nosebleed stared blankly at him, even though she knew he had only been there a short time.

They were very casual in choosing stones, barely glancing at them before grabbing them and leaving...

And they even bought four at once.

This was the first time she had ever seen someone buy stone like this, as if they were doing wholesale.

In the past, when a shop owner came to buy stones, he would touch and look at them here and there, often spending a long time examining a single stone.

"Sir, do you need your fabric cut?" the cashier asked politely.

Ye Chen waved his hand: "No need, I'll buy them to raise fish!"

The cashier's face twitched, but he finally nodded and said nothing more.

Spending 98 yuan to buy stones to raise fish...

Okay, she admits she was short-sighted.

Ye Chen was about to leave, pushing the stone, when Guo Jianbin happened to look in his direction.

He paused for a moment, then jogged over, clearly recognizing Ye Chen.

"Oh my, Mr. Ye, I didn't expect to run into you here. What a coincidence!" Guo Jianbin said with a big smile.

Ye Chen had no choice but to greet the other party since he couldn't avoid it.

Indeed, fate is something you can't avoid.

"Mr. Guo, it's been a long time! You're here to buy stones too!" Ye Chen said with a smile.

"Yes, I didn't expect President Ye to be a kindred spirit. How have you chosen?" Guo Jianbin looked at Ye Chen's shopping cart.

Ye Chen nodded: "I've bought them. Just pick out a few."

"Why not cut it open?" Guo Jianbin asked, puzzled.

"I'll just buy it to display as a souvenir. No need to cut it. It's not expensive anyway!" Ye Chen shook his head.

At this moment, Master Yuan also came over.

Guo Jianbin introduced, "Mr. Ye, this is a master I've invited at great expense. Let him take a look at my work!"

Master Yuan glanced at Ye Chen and then at the stones Ye Chen had bought. He simply nodded, a hint of disdain flashing in his eyes, though he didn't show it on his face.

Ye Chen simply smiled politely.

"Mr. Guo, I've taken a fancy to a piece of material. Come and take a look!" Master Yuan said casually, with quite an air of importance.

"Okay, okay, Mr. Ye, would you like to come along and take a look?" Guo Jianbin invited.

Now that he had run into him, Ye Chen was curious to see if this Master Yuan was truly a master.

Old Guo is a very warm and understanding person; he gave him such a useful gold card. And let's not forget, he really misses Xiao Shuang...

Ahem, Ye Chen pulled himself out of his thoughts.

Since we've met, I'll help him vet the candidate.

Saves me from having to sell villas again...

Ye Chen nodded: "Alright, I'm not in a hurry anyway, let's go take a look together. Master Yuan's choice of materials must be quite something!"

"Hmph, that's for sure!" Master Yuan chuckled and raised his chin.

The group arrived at a rock about half a person's height. The rock had a green window inside, and it was priced at 1800 million.

"Mr. Guo, this is the one. I can see the shimmering light flowing inside. It's bound to yield a great find and its value will definitely rise!" Master Yuan said with absolute certainty.

Upon hearing this, Guo Jianbin carefully examined the material for a long time, his expression solemn, and he hesitated for a moment.

On the surface, the material looks quite good, but that's precisely why it makes people a little hesitant to make a decision.

He's been gambling on rough stones for years, and these kinds of materials are often not what he expected.

Why did Master Yuan choose this stone?

Guo Jianbin finally looked at Ye Chen: "President Ye, what's your opinion?"

Master Yuan was immediately displeased upon hearing this: "Mr. Guo, what do you mean? 'If you doubt someone, don't use them; if you use someone, don't doubt them.' Since you paid me, why are you asking others if they don't trust me?"

Guo Jianbin quickly waved his hand: "Master Yuan, that's not what I meant. It's always good to have more people to consult."

Guo Jianbin ultimately didn't say that the chances of this material increasing in price were slim.

"Hmph, so you think what he says is more effective than what I say? Don't you even look at what materials he chose? And you still ask for his opinion?" Master Yuan coldly glanced at Ye Chen with his hands behind his back.

"Is there something wrong with my materials?" Ye Chen looked at him with a half-smile, wanting to hear what he had to say.

Ye Chen hadn't yet seen Master Yuan's abilities, but he certainly had quite a temper.

The large rock he chose did have some green, but only a little, and the water content inside was only average.

It might not even be worth 800 million; it's a guaranteed loss.
