Chapter 156: The Interest of Gambling Stones
In Black Cloud City, if this place is named blackname, everyone will naturally know that the power behind it will definitely not be simple.
At least the people in the City Lord’s Mansion have been involved, but it is normal for the people in the City Lord’s Mansion to have such a high income every year to cut stones here.
It is precisely because of the protection of the City Lord's Mansion that their store can be opened larger and larger. Not only are the dignitaries and nobles in the city often come here to consume, but many people from other places can't help but come in to play with them when they see the Black Cloud Stone Shop.
Every time a stone is sold, there will be a spirit stone. They are a sure-fire deal. Even if the customer cuts out the best-quality treasure, they don’t feel distressed at all.
After all, those who are destined to get it are gifted. They have already obtained the draw layer they want. If they are too greedy, they will definitely bring unnecessary blows to Shifang.
The middle-aged woman first took Chen Fan through a courtyard where there were many stones of different sizes. He saw many people surrounding the stones and even recording something with paper and pen.
Chen Fan was speechless when he saw this scene. Didn’t he expect that this has become a kind of culture?
At this time, Taotie told Chen Fan carefully: "Don't underestimate the stone cutting industry. There are many related stone cutting masters, who are extremely powerful monks themselves."
"And there are many specialties in stones. They don't just pick up one piece and cut it open. There are treasures inside. There are many ways to do it."
After hearing Taotie's warning, Chen Fan immediately corrected his thoughts.
After passing by this courtyard, they came to a small villa. Although there were much fewer stones than those outside, they obviously looked very different.
When Chen Fan was not allowed to enter, there was a noise inside. It was obvious that someone was cutting stones at this time, and everyone was very excited.
Chen Fan walked over. When the middle-aged woman saw that she brought Chen Fan to her destination, she gave a gift and left directly.
An old man with white hair and beards was carefully cutting the stone with the jade knife in his hand. The old man was sweating profusely, and some stone powder was slowly scattered on the stone. It looked really a very tiring skill.
"Do you think there are any treasures on this stone of the young master of the Li family?"
"Who knows, but according to the current situation, there is a high probability that there will be some."
The young master of the Li family stood beside him with his hands crossed, smiling at everyone's compliment to him. He also observed for a long time before buying this stone.
Now the surface of the stone emits a crystal green light, and there is obviously something good inside. If it is a useless stone, there will be no light.
The stone-cutting master was acting cautiously at this time. Every stone was a treasure given by God. When he entered the industry, his master warned him to treat every stone rigorously.
He has always adhered to this point, even though he was very tired at this time, he was still carefully cutting along the stone lines.
Cutting stones is a skill of water grinding, so you must not be impatient or careless. Otherwise, if you are not careful, you will not destroy your name, but will also cause losses to the guests.
Once such a thing happens, although Shifang will try his best to protect him, no one will come to him to cut stones in the future.
Chen Fan looked at the sweaty old man and felt very puzzled. He had the cultivation level of the Infant Transformation Stage, but why was he so tired after cutting a stone?
So Chen Fan asked Senior Taotie about this question. Senior Taotie heard Chen Fan's question, and first laughed for a while, then replied slowly.
"When you see the stone cutting master, he not only observes the meticulousness of the stone with his naked eyes, but also covers the whole process with spiritual consciousness."
"It is not just a simple coverage without any difference, but a complete pour of spiritual consciousness on it and carefully study every difference."
"There are many powerful stone-cutting masters. Their spiritual cultivation is very deep, and the cultivators with their fellow practitioners are far from comparable to those of them."
After hearing Taotie’s story, Chen Fan realized it. Since he had come to this place, let’s learn about the culture of stone cutting.
In the remote area of the Northwest Continent, he did not see anything related. Perhaps there were a few stone shops, but Chen Fan had never encountered them either.
But when he arrived in a wealthy place in Zhongzhou, all kinds of novel things popped up. Chen Fan still needed to make a lot of effort to adapt to this place.
A noise interrupted his thoughts. He was obviously the stone-cutting master on the field and was about to finish his work.
Suddenly, a strong green light radiated and everyone's hearts rose to their throats.
This is the charm of gambling stones. As long as you participate in it, you can enjoy the happiness inside without spending any resources.
Chen Fan's mind was also attracted by himself. He stretched his neck curiously, trying to see what treasure was cut out.
Taotie laughed when he saw Chen Fan like a child. He had seen it clearly for a long time, and could only say that the thunder sounded loudly and the rain was small, just a very small piece of spiritual jade.
Spiritual jade is different from spirit stones. Spiritual jade can absorb the spiritual energy from the outside world to replenish itself. The energy contained in it will never dissipate. Many elders of big families will buy such things and hang them on their younger generations.
It is not just to show your financial resources, but to effectively regulate your physical fitness. If a mortal has been hanging a piece of spiritual jade on his body for many years, there will definitely be no big problem in prolonging his life.
Chen Fan also slowly saw the object that was cut out in the end. It was a very small piece of green crystal, about the size of the tip of his little finger.
"It's a very good-quality spiritual jade. Mr. Li is so lucky this time." Master Cheshi said with a smile at the young master of the Li family.
Master Chess does such a job. Even if he is already exhausted at this time, he still has to praise the customer for his good luck.
However, as long as you make efforts, you will get rewards. The young master of the Li family obviously just felt very good. After being envied by everyone, he felt extremely comfortable in his heart.
He threw a small bag of low-grade spirit stones and gave them to the stone cutting master. He asked the people next to him to pack the stones, and then said loudly: "Pack this piece of spirit jade for me and make it into a pendant. I want to take it back and give it to my dear sister."
The young master of the Li family was very pleased with his good luck and complacent. Since he had gained something today, he no longer missed this place.
Feeling this happiness, Chen Fan's eyes also flashed with passion.
