Lin Xianer and Isa Ivy, on the other hand, were very surprised as they pulled the jade to their side. They surrounded it and looked at it carefully. They were amazed as they looked at it.
Looking at the serious expression of the shop owner just now, it did not seem to be a lie to say that this stone was worth one billion yuan.
Although the two big stars also had a small fortune, it was nothing compared to this jade.
"I really didn't expect it to be so valuable just a piece of jade."
"This is still a raw stone that hasn't been carved. If it was carved by a master, wouldn't it be even more valuable?"
"We actually found it on the island. When we go back, the two of us will also go and look for it. Maybe we will be rich."
Lin Xianer and Isa Ivy giggled as they discussed. They completely ignored the fact that the owner of the island was sitting beside them.
Lin Fan helplessly smiled. "How can it be as exaggerated as 1 billion? The price of jade was raised by the auction. The price was too exaggerated. It would not be so valuable."
Jade Lin Fan didn't understand, but he more or less knew a bit about the inside story of auctions.
Things like antiques and treasures that did not measure the standard price often went through rounds of hype and auctions to raise the price. It all depended on which idiot would be able to receive the bid in the end.
Therefore, the jade in Lin Fan's hand, if it could be worth one billion, it would be fine even if it was just a smile.
In fact, Lin Fan estimated that the reasonable price would be around seventy to eighty million. If the carving was better, it would be more than a hundred million.
Of course, if he wanted to hype it up, it was not impossible to sell it for a billion yuan. It was just that Lin Fan did not need to hype it up with such an exaggerated price.
He had originally taken it out to give it to someone else, so there was no need to waste his energy on it.
On the other side, Ma Chunlai called Wang Chengwen. At first, Wang Chengwen's tone was a little impatient.
"Who is it?" Wang Chengwen saw an unfamiliar number.
Ma Chunlai said carefully, "Elder Wang, I'm Ma Ji's Little Ma from the Jade Store. Ma Chunlai."
"Oh, it's you. What's the matter? I'm busy right now."
Although he did know Ma Chunlai, the two of them were merely acquaintances with a nod. They didn't have a deep relationship.
Furthermore, with Wang Chengwen's current status and identity, Ma Chunlai, the owner of the small jade shop, wasn't worth looking at. Therefore, his words were a little impatient.
"Elder Wang, it's like this..." Ma Chunlai organized his words and briefly explained what had happened today.
However, when he mentioned the watermelon-sized Green Mountain Jade, Wang Chengwen's jaw dropped to the ground on the other end of the phone. His hand trembled and he almost lost his grip on the phone.
"What? What did you say? The Green Mountain Jade is as big as a watermelon?!"
"That's right, elder Wang. The guest said that he was looking for me to sculpt, but how would I dare to accept such a huge task? I'm not considering it. I'll have to ask you to come out. "
On the other side of the phone, Wang Chengwen sneered. "Ma Chunlai, Ma Chunlai, are you dreaming or are you treating me like a fool? The Green Mountain Jade was now a jade. How could there be a good quality raw stone? Not to mention the size of a watermelon!"
Ma Chunlai was stunned. He never thought that Wang Chengwen would not believe him. Speaking of which, it was true. The two of them did not have a deep friendship. They suddenly called and said that there was a top quality raw stone with no production. No matter who it was, they would have to doubt it first.
"Elder Wang, I really didn't lie to you. The customer and the jade stone are in my shop now. If you don't believe me, you can come and take a look yourself!"
"Is everything you said true?!" Wang Chengwen saw how serious Ma Chunlai was talking, and he started to doubt him.
"Absolutely. If I lie to you, I will die a horrible death!" Ma Chunlai pointed at the sky and said.
"Ok. I am in Haizhou now. I will go to your shop to take a look." Wang Chengwen hung up the phone.
"Professor, who is it?" A young girl asked.
"It's the owner of Ma Ji Jade Store. He said a customer came with a watermelon-sized Green Mountain Jade..."
"West? Watermelon-sized or Green Mountain Jade?! That's impossible, right?!" The girl opened her mouth wide in shock.
"Who says so? I feel like this Ma Chunlai is dreaming. There is no longer a raw stone of Mount Indigo Jade. However, whether it is true or not, it is good to go and take a look. If it is true, we will encounter a top grade jade."
"Then I'll pack my things right away."
"Okay, go quickly."
The girl's name was Wang Xiaojuann. She was Wang Chengwen's distant niece. She followed him to learn how to carve jade. Usually, she would call him teacher.
When she heard such explosive news, she hurriedly packed the tools that Wang Chengwen always carried with him when he went out. Then, the master and disciple hurriedly left the house.
Wang Chengwen was not a native of Haizhou. However, because he was the consultant for Yan Zhai Jade Store, he had his own workshop here.
Fortunately, the studio wasn't too far away from Ma Ji Jade Store. He drove for about ten minutes.
After Lin Fan found out that Ma Chunlai had called someone over, he patiently waited in the shop. During that time, he chatted with Ma Chunlai without saying a word.
After drinking half a pot of tea, Wang Chengwen rushed over.
As soon as he entered the shop, he shouted impatiently, "Where's the jade? Where's the jade you mentioned? Quickly let me have a look."
Ma Chunlai went forward and said, "Aiya, elder Wang, don't be anxious. Sit down and talk."
"I can't sit down. Hurry up and take the jade out for me to take a look!" Wang Chengwen waved his hand impatiently.
In the circle of jade, not only was Wang Chengwen old and famous, he was able to achieve his current achievements all because he was obsessed with jade.
As long as he saw a good piece of jade, he could hug it for three days and three nights without sleeping.
Therefore, people gave him a nickname, "Jade Addict."
"Elder Wang, the jade is right here." Ma Chunlai pointed his finger at Lin Fan, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
The Green Mountain Jade had been placed on the coffee table in front of the sofa. Its size looked astonishing. Of course, its weight was also frightening.
If it wasn't for the fact that the coffee table was made of pure wood, the ordinary glass coffee table wouldn't have been able to bear the weight.
Wang Chengwen's eyes almost popped out when he saw Lin Fan's jade on the tea table.
Wang Xiaojuann, who was following behind him, covered her mouth in shock, afraid that she would scream.
The master and disciple were equally shocked in their hearts. "It is indeed the Green Mountain Jade. There is actually such a huge raw stone!"
"Elder Wang, elder Wang?" Ma Chunlai asked carefully when he saw that Wang Chengwen was in a daze.
Hiss...
There was a long sound of breathing. Wang Chengwen had completely forgotten to breathe when he saw the jade just now. Luckily, Ma Chunlai called out twice from the side, and only then did he take a deep breath.
