Huang Tian gave his big uncle a call and his big uncle told them to go downstairs. They arrived downstairs and saw the big uncle was sitting on the sofa reading newspaper in the lobby as his few body guards could be seen standing beside him.
"You came, then let's go." The big uncle put the newspaper down as he leaded the three guys to his cars that were parking in front of the hotel.
There were quite a few Jade Markets in Shanghai and the company was currently heading toward one of the Jade Market that was close to them.
After over twenty minutes of driving, they finally arrived at the Jade Market's parking lot.
All of them came out of the car and walked towards the entrance of the Jade Market. The entrance gate of the Jade Market was very big and tall as it stood st.u.r.dily on the ground, its entirely body was made of white stone, on top of the gate, two big words could be seen carving on, its name was 'Jade Market'. Two security guards were also standing on each side of the gate.
From the appearance, this giant entrance gate looked similar to the gate in ancient times, it even gave off an ancient feeling.

The three young guys could not help but looked at the giant and majestic entrance gate in awe. Though this was not their first time seeing a big gate like this, but all of those gates were the gates of some ancient historical sites, not of the market like this.
Although it was quite early in the morning, there were still many people around, walking as they inspected the goods, or coming in or out of the market through the giant entrance gate.
The company arrived inside the market, many rows of stalls and shops could be seen positioned themselves inside.
Though this market's name was Jade, it wasn't focused solely on jades, many other kinds of jewelries or antiques could also be found there. if this market were to sell only jades, then it would have gone bankrupt a long time ago, it would not be this prosperous or even had its other branches like this.
All kinds of jewelries and antiques could be seen put on sale along the street, they sometimes stopped at a stall or a shop to look around or inspected some items which had piqued their interests, however, none of them found anything that they wanted.
As they walked for a few more minutes, a middle-aged man suddenly came to greet big uncle Huang.
"h.e.l.lo, if it isn't boss Huang."
"Oh, what a coincidence to see you here, old Xi."
"Yes, it's a coincidence to meet you here. By the way, did you find anything you like here?"
"Ah, I and my nephew and his friends here have been looking around for a whole morning now, but there was nothing could be seen interesting at all."
"Oh, then why don't you go to the stone gambling in the front?"
"Stone gambling? It's been a while since I last played it. Then thank you old Xi."
"Ahaha, your welcome, then there's matter I have to attend too, see you next time boss Huang."
After the two said goodbye, big uncle Huang leaded his company to the place where old Xi told him earlier.
Many people could be seen gathering around the place as some of them bought a few stones in different shapes and sizes.
"You guys should have knowledge about this right? Gambling on stones is the practice of buying a raw stone and then cutting it open, with the hopes of it holding some gems. If a jade is in the stone, the buyer can make a huge profit. But if the stone holds nothing, the buyer has bought a valueless rock at a high price. It's no difference from buying a piece of trash or stone besides the street if there is nothing or a damaged jade inside. Sometimes you can get rich or go bankrupt in seconds by this, it's unpredictable at all."
"If you want to buy a stone, call me, I know more than you do."
"I understand uncle."
After that, all of them walked around the place, all kinds of different stones with different color, shapes and size were laying themselves on the ground.
Huang Tian wanted to buy a high quality jade for his girlfriend and it was not easy to find it in the shops, as a result, finding it via stone gambling was the best idea. Huang Tian didn't know how to inspect a stone, his uncle could but if he were to buy an expensive one, it was not appropriate, but if he were to use his money, it would be too suspicious, his uncle would ask him where did he get so much money from? His uncle knew his family's financial condition too clearly.
Huang Tian had a brilliant idea in his mind. He remembered that he had a pill called Temporary Vision Pill, he didn't know if it would work or not but somehow, Huang Tian had this feeling that it would work out for him. This pill's effect would only last for 5 minutes, however, Huang Tian thought that 5 minutes was more than enough for him.
Huang Tian took his phone out of his pants' pocket and placed it inside his jacket's inner pocket instead. Then he secretly extracted the pill from his phone and Huang Tian saw that it was a black mixed with white-colored pill, it was in a size of a normal round candy, then he ate the pill without a soul knowing what it really was.
Huang Tian felt a sudden warm sensation inside his throat as the warm sensation suddenly went up from the throat to his brain, but as it reached the brain, the warm feeling suddenly dropped its temperature as it turned to a cool sensation instead, the feeling was very comfortable, however, it didn't stop moving there, it further continued to move to Huang Tian's eyes.
Huang Tian felt a very comfortable and wonderful sensation inside his eyes. His eyes pupil's color turned from black to dark-blue, and it was unnoticeable to everyone. Huang Tian himself didn't know about this too.
He tried to focus on a random distance as he suddenly saw a few flies were flying clearly and slowly, Huang Tian could estimate that the distance from him to the flies was about over 40 meters away from him. He also saw people's carotid pulse moving up and down lightly on their necks, his eyesight could also catch radial pulse and brachial pulse too, it was very amazing for him.
However, Huang Tian could not make himself to waste the 5 precious minutes with people's pulse any longer, he needed to use it on the stones as soon as possible.
Huang Tian randomly looked at a fist-sized stone, he used all of his concentration to focus on it. He tried for more than twenty seconds, but nothing could be seen useful to him, he only saw the pattern of the stone more clearly.
Huang Tian suddenly became disappointed, but he didn't want to give up. As a result, he tried again and this time, he tried longer than before, he used over thirty seconds, but the result was still the same, nothing happened.
Though he may not look like it, but Huang Tian was not the type to give up on the things he wanted easily, so he tried for the third time. Huang Tian gathered all of his concentration and even strength as much as possible and he looked at the same fist-sized stone. After ten seconds, nothing happed. Twenty-five seconds pa.s.sed, nothing happened either. Huang Tian tried for over one minute, but nothing still happened, Huang Tian thought that it was impossible after all, so gave up.
However, just as he was about to walk away, he wanted to give it a try one last time. To his astonishment, he didn't even gather his concentration or strength into his eyes, he just looked at the same fist-sized stone normally, suddenly a dull gray-colored small light appeared out of nowhere inside the stone, it was as though Huang Tian could see through the inner side of the stone.
Something dull was never a good thing, as a result, Huang Tian didn't take any interest to the fist-sized gray stone. Then Huang Tian found another stone, its sized was bigger than the previous stone, the light inside the stone was yellow, but it was a dull one. Huang Tian tried a few other stones, but all of them had dull colored lights.
Then just as he was randomly looking around, a human's head-sized stone suddenly caught up in his eyesight, its outer appearance was covered in mosses and anyone would not bother with it, however, it was different to Huang Tian, Huang Tian saw that the light inside the stone was surprisingly in crimson-colored and it was also quite big, its size was bigger than even the fist and it was very bright, it was not dull as the previous stones'. The owner of the stall, seeing Huang Tian was looking at the big stone interestingly, he took the initiated to talk to Huang Tian "Young brother, this head-sized stone has been here for almost a week already, but no one buys it. Though I want profit, but it seems like it is a useless stone, I don't want to lie to you, so I advise you not to buy it, I don't want to cheat a young boy like you."
The stall owner's word may not sound pleasing to the ears, however, it was with honesty, Huang Tian appreciated the owner's words.
"Thank you boss, but I want to trust myself too. Please name a price, I will buy this stone."
"If you insist so… then just give me 700 yuan, this price is the same as the input price."
"Then thank you very much boss."
"Alright, come with me, I'll help you cut the stone."
Then Huang Tian called his uncle and told him about the big stone.
When his uncle saw it, he shook his head lightly and said "Little Tian, do you why n.o.body buys this stone?"
"I don't know."
"Then let uncle tell you, do you see mossed covered the stone? It is indicating that the stone was staying in a place that was full of water for a long time, most likely in a lake. Normally, if a stone were to stay in water for too long, if there's a jade inside, the jade would most likely get damaged by the infiltrated water, the chance of it staying good is too scarce."
"Then it may be my bad luck this time, however, I still want to cut it."
"Naturally, then let's cut it."
