The Man In Rage novel Chapter 230

Qiu Mu-Ying laughed coldly in her heart as she spoke.

She thought he was truly an idiot for still choosing a rock now. Wasn't he asking for humiliation?

In a while, after they found that it was scrap, it would undoubtedly cement the fact that Ye Fan being a good-for-nothing.

After Qiu Mu-Ying said these words, the host felt that she made sense too. The host asked the ones in charge of the auction about it and agreed to sell the rock to Ye Fan for $1,000 per kilogram.

The reason why it was going so cheaply was because it was just a piece of masked jade.

Masked jade meant that it had no snake bands nor color nor pattern on it, and it was just grey and white, and looked like any other rock. From the outside, one couldn't even consider it rough jade because it didn't look like it might be green on the inside at all.

And that was also why these rocks were never part of the auction and were left in a corner like trash.

Ye Fan had only noticed the rock after he went onstage too.

But this rock was a few kilograms and would cost quite a few thousand. Ye Fan didn't have that much money, so he had to borrow from Shen Fei.

"Mr Ye, are you sure? That's a masked jade stone. The chances of it containing jade are zero. It's fine to lose money, but it will be embarrassing," persuaded Ye Fan nonstop when he wanted to borrow money from Shen Fei.

Shen Fei could believe that something with a tiny corner of green would contain jade, and he could also believe that a rock that was worth millions would produce Yang jade. But Shen Fei wasn't going to believe that a rock that was sold by weight would produce anything inside.

"Mr Ye, why don't you buy something else? This will affect your reputation, you know.

If the rock you've chosen is a bad one, then you won't just look bad here, but you'd also become a laughingstock in the jade world and I'd be embarrassed along with you." Shen Fei wasn't dumb. Many people were hoping that Ye Fan would embarrass himself, so Shen Fei was worried for him.

But Ye Fan remained calm and insisted on buying that rock. And he even wanted to cut it in front of everyone.

"He even has to borrow a few thousand?"

"He must be really poor!"

"How did a country bumpkin like him get in here?"

"And he actually wants to cut this in front of everyone?!"

"This sort of rock has no color, no snake bands and no pattern and looks just like any ordinary piece of rock. If someone put this up for an auction, I wouldn't even look at it. Only a piece of trash would like a piece of trash too, right?"

"Fei, you're really too kind. But let me advise you - don't go too close to people like that, it's really unbecoming of you and you'd embarrass your father,” a middle aged man pretended to remind Shen Fei kindly as he shook his head and snorted.

He was the director of Hongyuan Jewelry Company, and his name was Li Hong-Yuan. He was friends with Shen Fei's father, Shen Jiu-Yi.

Shen Fei smiled coldly instead, "Uncle Li, thanks for the reminder. But you don't have to worry about me."

"Why you..." Li Hong-yuan glared angrily at Shen Fei. "How stubborn! Wait and see then! This country bumpkin will cut this useless piece of rock open and I'll see what you have to say then!"

Everyone was looking on coldly with disdain in their hearts. They were watching Ye Fan's 'performance' like they were watching a clown.

Ye Fan had already carried the rock over to the stone cutting table.

"Do you want to polish or cut it?" asked the staff out of habit.

Ye Fan thought about it for a while. "Polish it."

Everyone burst out laughing immediately.

"Polish? Seriously?"

"Even if you polish it till tomorrow, it won't turn green!"

"What an idiot!" Li Hong-Yuan sneered.

Qiu Mu-Ying and Chu Wen-Fei were waiting for a good show.

Only Qiu Mu-Cheng Shen Fei watched on nervously.

ZIZIZI...

Under Ye Fan's insistence, the staff started polishing the rock.

A white fog appeared as the sandpaper rubbed against the rock.

But this white fog didn't last long. After a short time of polishing, a thick green fog started gushing out.

Eventually, a green color appeared on the rock and there were no cracks at all.

"This...this..."
