Chapter 71 The Influence of Prince Yan

"'Raw stone'? No, no, what kind of stone do we want to choose?" Paimon said.

"Night Stone, the quality must be at least "Candlelight" grade." Zhongli said calmly.

"Candlelight!" When Shitou heard this professional term to describe the quality of Night Stone, he immediately put away his contempt and quickly displayed his three types of Night Stone for everyone to see.

"Dear guests, what do you think of the quality of these gems? Our "Jie Cui Hang" is a time-honored jade brand. Look at the quality! They are absolutely excellent, and are simply a gift from the Lord of Rock. Please feel free to choose."

"They all look good, and they're different from the night stones we usually dig out." Paimon asked the crowd hesitantly, "But how do we choose?"

"The boss of the gambling stone business...cannot be trusted easily." Ying said to Paimeng in a low voice, then looked at Zhongli and Lu Shiyuan, "Let you two experts make the decision."

"Mr. Zhongli, you decide." Lu Shiyuan chuckled.

"You want me to decide? Fine." Zhongli hesitated for a moment, "Boss, I want them all!"

"All of them!" Paimeng was shocked, but then he changed his mind and said, "Mr. Zhongli is right. Shi Yuan got a lot of money from the young master anyway. Even if he spends it like this, it should be... enough."

She was not particularly sure how much Mora would be needed to deliver the Immortal Ceremony, and she felt a little lacking in confidence at the end.

But Lu Qianzhi promptly reassured Paimeng, "More than enough, the money my brother got from the Northland Bank is enough to hold ten ceremonies to send off the immortals."

"Hiss!" Paimon couldn't help but take a breath of cold air, "Ten games, doesn't that mean that 90% of those five boxes of Mora will go into Shi Yuan's pocket?!"

"Hey! You can't say that." Lu Shiyuan laughed, "I'm not a stingy person. I'll give you and Ying 10% of the Mora I earned this time!"

"Really!" Paimeng's eyes lit up. Even she could figure it out. Excluding the money needed for the Immortal Sending Ceremony, there would be about one tenth of the remaining 45 million Moras, which was still more than 4 million Moras!
"Really." Lu Shiyuan laughed, "I can't let you follow me for nothing."

"But... just for us?" Paimon looked at Zhongli, Mona and others hesitantly.

"Them?" Lu Shiyuan smiled and said frankly, "Mr. Zhongli doesn't need Mora. Qianzhi is my biological sister, and we are a family. And my funds are open to Mona, and she can use them as she pleases.

So, you get the idea.”

"I see." Paimon finally understood.

"Do you really want them all?" Shi Tou asked excitedly after seeing everyone finished communicating.

"Of course not!" Lu Shiyuan hit him mercilessly.

"Why?" Shitou and Zhongli asked in unison.

"The main thing is, I remember that the amount of Night Stone used in the Immortal Gift Ceremony was not too large, but the quality was very demanding." Lu Shiyuan explained to Zhongli, "So, there is no point in buying too much, it is better to just buy the best."

"Indeed." Zhongli nodded.

"With so much money, are we still short of one or two Night Stones?" Paimeng couldn't help but ask.

"Save as much as you can, saving is earning." Lu Shiyuan said with a smile, "You can also get more money."

Hearing this, Paimon nodded obediently, then asked in confusion: "But how should we choose? They all look the same."

"Since Mr. Lu wants to save money... I know a thing or two about the identification method of Yebo Stone." Zhongli said with a smile.

"Hehe, let me try first." Lu Shiyuan smiled and waved his hand, turned his head to look at the stone, and said calmly in the doubtful and expectant eyes of the crowd, "Boss Shi, help me pick out the best Yebo stones, and then we will buy them."

"Huh?" Shitou's expression suddenly became strange. "My dear guest, are you joking? Buying jade depends entirely on the buyer's eyesight. If you let me choose, isn't that breaking the rules? Besides, the jade I have here is all good jade. How can there be any bad jade?"

Everyone couldn't help but raise their hands to their foreheads in embarrassment. What Shi Yuan said was too unkind. If he asked jade merchants to pick only good jade to sell, would they still be able to make money?

"Ahem..." Lu Shiyuan coughed lightly and said to the stone, "Boss Shi, don't hide it. We chose the Yebo Stone for the purpose of organizing the ceremony of sending the immortals. The quality of the Yebo Stone is of utmost importance.

I think you should understand the importance of this!"

"What!" Shitou was stunned. "Is this a ceremony for sending off the immortals? Is it for Prince Yan?"

"That's right, we buy top-quality Yebo Stone to use in making instruments for sending immortal scriptures!" Zhongli said calmly.

"Don't doubt our identities. This is Mr. Zhongli, a guest official of the Wangsheng Hall." Lu Shiyuan said, "You must have heard of him since you are in the jade business."

"I've heard of him. Mr. Zhongli is an expert in jade and antiques. We have his portrait in our jewelry store, just waiting for him to come. This gentleman has an imposing appearance, he must be the real one." Shitou nodded repeatedly.

"Okay, it turns out that Zhongli is treated as a fat sheep. No wonder he has to spend such a large sum of money just for a trip out." Lu Shiyuan cursed in his heart.

Shitou finished speaking and sighed, "Alas, I have heard a lot of gossip recently, but I have never dared to ask too much. Prince Yan, he is indeed...

Alas... It's hard to believe that, although "Jie Cui Hang" has declined now, our ancestors have always been blessed by Lord Yan.

It is said that Lord Yan traveled incognito to the south of the city 200 years ago. When he got lost, he tried some local snacks and used the jade spoon from Jie Cui Xing.

Alas... all is past, all is past. For this night mooring stone, I will personally pick out the best one and charge you only half the price."

"But boss, wouldn't you be at a huge loss by doing this?" Paimeng couldn't help but say.

"Without Lord Yan, there would be no "Trade City" today. As a businessman, how can I make this kind of money?"

As he spoke, Shi Tou lit a fire, marked the three Ye Mo Stones with numbers, and burned them one by one.

Yebo Stone is a strange stone that illuminates at night. It has a very high affinity to the element of fire and will glow when exposed to fire. The brighter the light, the better the quality of the Yebo Stone.

This is a very important secret in the jade world. Ordinary people have no way of knowing it, but the stones naturally know it.

After all three types of Night Stone were burned, everyone could see that the No. 3 Night Stone was the brightest.

"Yes, I want the No. 3 Night Stone, a box!" said Lu Shiyuan.

"Okay." Shi Tou took out a box of Yebo Stone. He was in a low mood. It seemed that the death of the Emperor had dealt him a great blow.

Seeing this, Paimon couldn't help but comfort him: "Boss, don't worry, your thoughts will definitely be conveyed to Lord Yan."

Everyone also comforted Shi Tou.

Shitou wiped his tears and smiled: "Okay...Okay! Thank you all, what's wrong with me? I'm crying all the time. My fortune is slipping away, haha."

"We've got the Night Stone, and it's time to pay." Lu Shiyuan looked at the stone, "Just send the bill to Wangsheng Hall."

"Okay, I got it." Shitou nodded and prepared to write the bill.

"Wait." Lu Shiyuan stopped the other person, moved closer to him, and whispered, "For this bill, just write it according to the original price, and write one box as ten boxes... Do you understand?"
