“Third Sis, don’t make a scene!” The male who was with her, scolded her.
“Second Big Bro, don’t stop me!” That lady looked at Sima You Yue, saying, “If your stone really produces spirit stones with a value of at least two million middle ranked crystal stones, I will gladly give you double the amount of money! If you don’t manage to do it…. If you don’t manage to do it… you just need to give me a hundred thousand crystal stones!”
“Okay.” Sima You Yue nodded, and the two made their agreement.
“Third Sis, how could you let others…”Hu Ling wanted to stop her, but his younger sister would refuse to listen to him once she was in a stubborn mood. Despite this, he still couldn’t let her act so wilfully.
“Second Big Bro, the person didn’t reject me, so why are you so anxious!” Hu Fang Fang said with a smile. “Since we’ve agreed on it, you can begin cutting!”
When one was betting on stones, it was a good opportunity to gamble as well. This was a very common scene, so nobody was surprised. They just continued to watch things unfold with excitement. They wanted to see who would end up losing.
“Lord, how do you want to open it?” The master asked.
“Just cut through the centre!” Sima You Yue said.
“This… Lord, are you certain?” The master asked.
Usually, one would cut in slowly from the centre. This was because most spirit stones were in the centre or slightly off-center. If one cut through the centre, it was easy for one to ruin the spirit stone inside. Once it was broken, the spirit energy would leak out from the hole. Then, it would have to be used quickly and couldn’t be kept for long. The spirit stone would no longer be worth as much.
It was rather rare for them to receive requests like hers, which were to cut through the centre.
“Since he told you to cut through the centre, you should just do it.” Hu Fang Fang said with a laugh, “In any case, it’s a watermelon stone. It’s no problem if you cut through the centre.”
The master felt that this made sense as well, so he followed Sima You Yue’s instructions and cut the stone through the centre into two.
The two halves of the stone fell onto the ground, revealing the pure white stone.
“It’s a white stone.” The people watching all saw the white stone, and were not surprised at all.
Hu Fang Fang saw the white stone and smiled self satisfactorily. She watched at Fatty Qu and the others raged.
“What are you anxious for? Don’t you see how those two are calm and composed?” Wu Lingyu saw that they were fuming, so he commented lightly.
Even if they wanted to say that it was Sima You Yue’s first time betting on stones, Third Mo had also remained silent the entire way. This proved that there was definitely no issue with the stone.
“Where do you want to cut next?” The master asked as he picked up one of the halves.
“Let me see.” Sima You Yue took the stone and looked. Then, she drew on the surface and said, “Cut this way.”
“Okay.”
The master retrieved the stone from her and cut like how she had shown him. The stone split in half away, and it was still a white stone.
“Here, grind it.” Sima You Yue took one of the halves and said.
You could cut or grind a stone. Most people began by cutting, then would choose to grind into the stone when they felt that a spirit stone was going to appear. They would slowly wear away the surface of the stone.
A short moment later, a few spirit stones the size of peanuts began to reveal themselves.
“They’re really melon seeds.” The spectators said.
“How could you call these melon seeds. They’re better than melon seeds. They’re peanuts!” Hu Fang Fang mocked.
