The Immortal Who Returned from the Netherworld Road – Chapter 19

Ch 19: Buying Rough Stones

Coming out of Longhua Shopping Mall.

Long Xi looked at the busy road and frowned. He forgot to ask where the Jade Gambling Market was. Then he took out his phone, which was out of power, from his pocket and shook his head helplessly.

Seeing the breakfast shop on the roadside, Xi Yang went to have breakfast first. He learned the location of Longxi Rough Stone Exchange from the Innkeeper.

Inside the shopping mall, Liu Jiazhou bought clothes for Xi Yang. When he came down from the third floor, there was no trace of Xi Yang. Asking the shopping mall staff, he learned that Xi Yang had already left.

He hurriedly called Liu Zhengtian, “Dad, it’s not good, Xi Yang is gone?”

Liu Zhengtian was furious when he heard this, “Jiazhou, what’s wrong with you? I asked you to buy some clothes, how could you lose someone?”

“Dad, I don’t know! He asked me where there were more affordable clothes, and I said this is the most affordable place in the county. He didn’t answer and turned around and left! Huang Shiyun ran into him when he went downstairs, and fought with her bodyguards!” Speaking of this, he became excited, “Dad, let me tell you, Xi Yang’s skills are amazing, in a flash, all four bodyguards were knocked down, I didn’t even see how he moved!”

Liu Zhengtian was full of black lines and asked, “And then?”

“Then he left! When I saw that he didn’t buy clothes, I turned around and went to buy clothes for him! After buying them, the person was gone!” Liu Jiazhou said depressedly.

Liu Zhengtian rubbed his forehead, why is his son so carefree, alas! He said helplessly, “Where are you? I’ll have Old Wu pick you up later, no need to look for him. He will definitely wait for us at the entrance of Longxi Jade Gambling Casino tonight!”

Liu Jiazhou realized his problem and weakly asked, “Dad, are you very disappointed in me?”

“Come back first! Everyone has a young age!” Liu Zhengtian comforted.

Longxi Rough Stone Exchange is a huge six-story building, covering an area of about three football fields. Outside the main entrance of the casino is a rough stone trading street about one kilometer long.

The streets outside the Longxi Jade Gambling Casino are already crowded with people. Perhaps because of the rough stone convention in the evening, there are also many Crystal Stone Merchants with accents from other places.

Xi Yang had more than one hundred Dragon Country Currency left in his pocket. Excluding the money for food, he only had one hundred yuan to buy rough stones. And he must use this one hundred yuan to earn the money to participate in the rough stone convention, at least one million is needed.

He casually walked into a rough stone shop. He frowned as his Divine Sense swept over these rough stones. It was fine if there were no good goods, but the key was that the prices were outrageously expensive. The cheapest piece of waste stone cost 20,000 Dragon Country Currency.

A middle-aged man with a stubble face came to Xi Yang and said with a smile, “Little brother, do you want to buy a piece of rough stone to play with? Let me tell you, the quality of my rough stones is the best on this street. Just yesterday, someone spent 250,000, and cut out a Low-Grade Crystal Stone, the value directly doubled, worth 500,000. Which one does little brother like?”

Xi Yang shook his head, “No, I’m just here to take a look!” After saying that, he turned around and left.

After walking through more than twenty rough stone shops in a row, some were actually not bad, and he also inquired about the prices of some Crystal Stones. Low-Grade Crystal Stones, 100,000 to 1 million. Mid-Grade Crystals, 1 million to 5 million, High-Grade Crystal Stones 5 million to 10 million! Crystal Stones are divided into azure, yellow, red, white, and black, among which azure and red Crystal Stones are the most expensive, followed by yellow Crystal Stones, and white and black Crystal Stones are the cheapest. Of course, it also depends on the quality of the Crystal Stone. The same kind of Crystal Stone is also divided into four grades: glass, icy, glutinous, and bean.

Of course, seeing a few good Crystal Stones, he also tried to quote a price, but without exception, he was almost beaten out. After all, people are asking for hundreds of thousands, and you give one hundred, isn’t this ruining the business?

Xi Yang walked all over these shops, there were not many really good Crystal Stones, no more than ten pieces. It’s not that he doesn’t want to buy them, but he has no money in his pocket! In the last few shops, perhaps they heard some rumors, and before he could look at a few pieces, he was kicked out by the Innkeeper.

Standing on the street, Xi Yang looked helpless. There are very few things in this world that can make a huge profit with a small investment, or rather, there are almost none.

He shook his head and looked at the last store, the sign of the store read “Huang’s Rough Stones”.

Walking into this store, the antique decoration shows the long history of this store. The rough stones placed in the store are also particularly exquisite. The rough stones are placed in different cabinets of different sizes, and the prices of different cabinets are different. There are rough stones ranging from 10,000 to 1 million. The quality of the rough stones is much better than those of the previous Merchants.

A capable Service Worker next to her was wearing a cheongsam, with heavy makeup, and led the way with a smile.

Xi Yang’s Divine Sense swept over these counters, and the probability of these rough stones being able to cut out Crystal Stones was several times higher than any other store outside, reaching a 20% probability. You must know that this Crystal Stone transaction can make you poor or rich with one cut. A 20% probability is already very high.

Soon, he selected a rough stone and pointed to a gray one in the counter and said, “Boss Huang, I want this one!” The Crystal Stone in this rough stone is not the best in the store, but it is the cheapest and most affordable!

The Service Worker smiled and said, “Sir, this rough stone is worth 100,000. The rough stones in our store have been tested by masters, and the probability of producing Crystal Stones is extremely high. Therefore, all the rough stones in our store do not accept bargaining or credit!”

Xi Yang’s mouth was wide open when he heard this, but he didn’t know what to say. He knew clearly in his heart that the Crystal Stone in this rough stone was worth far more than this price, but unfortunately, he only had a mere one hundred yuan in his pocket, which was not enough to buy it.

Just then, a burst of brisk footsteps came from outside the door, and a figure rushed in happily and walked towards the store.

Xi Yang subconsciously looked back, and couldn’t help but secretly complain in his heart. The person in front of him was none other than Huang Shiyun, who was knocked away by his punch. He hurriedly turned his head back and pretended to be focused on looking at the rough stone in front of him.

Huang Shiyun, who was originally in a good mood, saw Xi Yang at a glance. The corners of her mouth raised slightly, revealing a smug smile.

She quickly walked to Xi Yang’s side and deliberately raised her voice and asked, “Aunt Lan, does he want to buy this stone?”

The Service Worker next to her respectfully nodded and replied, “Yes, Boss Huang!”

After hearing this, a hint of provocation flashed in Huang Shiyun’s eyes, and she said to Xi Yang with a contemptuous tone: “What’s wrong, Bumpkin, didn’t expect to meet me here, right?”

Xi Yang showed an awkward wry smile on his face, thinking that he was really unlucky. He had just beaten Huang Shiyun a few hours ago, but now he ran to her store to pick out rough stones. What’s worse, he couldn’t afford it at all. Even his old face of hundreds of years felt a little ashamed at this moment.

Then, he looked at Huang Shiyun and said calmly, “Your leg is not lame! It’s getting better so quickly?”

Huang Shiyun’s face changed slightly when she heard this, and she said angrily, “If you want to buy the rough stone in my store, the price will be doubled. This rough stone is now 200,000!”

Xi Yang shook his head, thinking: “Let alone 200,000, even 100,000, I can’t afford it.” He said helplessly: “I don’t want it anymore! Goodbye!” After saying that, Xi Yang turned and left.

Just then, a burst of footsteps came from outside the door, and Gongsun Yuan, wearing sportswear, ran in panting, muttering in her mouth: “Shiyun, why are you running so fast? Are you rushing to be reincarnated!” Before she finished speaking, she ran head-on into Xi Yang who was about to leave.

Xi Yang reacted quickly and dodged her with a flash of his figure. Gongsun Yuan lost her balance due to inertia and fell to the ground with a “bang”. Immediately afterwards, two lines of nosebleeds flowed from her nose.

Seeing this, Huang Shiyun hurriedly stepped forward to help Gongsun Yuan up, and angrily questioned Xi Yang: “Bumpkin, you’ve gone too far! It’s all because of you that Yuan Yuan fell like this!”

After hearing this, Xi Yang just shook his head helplessly, ignored them, and walked straight to the door.

Gongsun Yuan raised her head and looked at Xi Yang with a resentful expression, tears welling up in her eyes. Seeing that Xi Yang was about to leave, she suddenly burst into tears.

Seeing this, Huang Shiyun immediately shouted loudly: “Stop, Bumpkin! Yuan Yuan fell so badly, and you don’t even have a word of apology, it’s really too much!”

Xi Yang still did not respond and continued to walk towards the door.
