Chapter 169 A Hundred Million Yuan Price
The expert appraiser looked at the emerald in Wang Chao's hand, his eyes gleaming as if he was admiring a rare work of art.
As a seasoned appraiser, he had never seen such a rare and precious treasure in his entire life!
Just by looking at it, he felt a sense of peace and comfort, as if bathed in a spring breeze.
Another appraiser nodded in agreement, "That's right, this is an invaluable treasure!"
Both of them had seen many treasures, but they had never seen such a miraculous gemstone before!
Just by looking at it, just standing near it, there was an unprecedented comfort.
This treasure, even if placed in the most exclusive VIP room, was truly priceless and a treasure that could dominate the store!
"What? An invaluable treasure?"
"No way? My goodness, the appraiser actually gave such an evaluation, this is the highest praise!"
"I think this gemstone deserves such an evaluation. Just by looking at the picture on the screen, I feel inexplicably comfortable. This is definitely a treasure."
The audience was shocked by these words, and many people agreed without any objections.
This jade was truly extraordinary!
"Darn it, how could this happen?" Duan Wuyan clenched his teeth, feeling extremely unhappy and frustrated.
He thought Han Fei making over three million was already an extraordinary feat, an incredible accomplishment.
But he never expected that Wang Chao would bring out an invaluable treasure!
Han Fei was too excited to say anything, while the other two appraisers were also shocked, giving high praise.
"So, do you think my stone is impressive, or Mr. Han's stone is better?" Wang Chao asked.
"This stone is unparalleled in the world!"
The two appraisers nodded in unison.
Seeing this, Duan Wuyan's expression became even more unpleasant.
eαglesnᴏνel "Um, can I touch it?" one appraiser asked.
His name was written on the name tag on his chest: Appraiser Zhu Haochang.
"You can, but be careful when you hold it." Wang Chao handed the Guanyin Bodhisattva jade to Zhu Haochang.
Zhu Haochang took it gingerly, feeling the icy coldness in his hand. In that moment, all the pores on his body seemed to open, and every cell seemed to be bathed in a comfortable environment, breathing freely and happily.
"What a precious treasure!"
"This is definitely the best treasure I've ever seen in my career as an appraiser, an invaluable treasure."
After carefully feeling the power of the jade, Zhu Haochang's expression became excited, and a hint of greed flickered in his eyes.
"Swish!"
Before Zhu Haochang could make any move, Wang Chao had already made a lightning-fast move and took the jade stone of Guanyin Bodhisattva into his own hands.
As the gemstone left Zhu Haochang's possession, he felt a sense of loss. He looked at Wang Chao with excitement and said, "Mr. Wang, I'll offer 30 million yuan, sell me this gemstone!"
At this moment, another appraiser named Lu Hu, who had just come back to his senses, immediately said, "I offer 50 million yuan!"
"You bastard, Lu Hu, are you trying to snatch it from me? Fine, I offer 60 million yuan!"
"I offer 70 million yuan!"
"80 million yuan!"
"100 million yuan!"
The two of them were heatedly bidding, quickly driving the price up to 100 million yuan.
Boom!
One stone stirred up a thousand waves!
Upon hearing this astronomical price, everyone at the scene was in a frenzy.
Everyone looked at the jade stone in Wang Chao's hand with greed written all over their faces.
Worth 100 million yuan!
What a precious item!
Han Fei, upon hearing this price, was also speechless and had an ugly expression.
In fact, he was also deeply attracted to the jade stone of Guanyin Bodhisattva and wanted to make a bid.
However, now that Wang Chao had selected the jade stone, and he and Wang Chao were in a hostile relationship, he didn't have the face to make a bid.
"I'm sorry, gentlemen, I have a great use for this jade stone, so I won't sell it!" Wang Chao collected the jade stone and said calmly.
Both Zhu Haochang and Lu Hu were disappointed.
"Cutting emerald! Cutting emerald again!"
At this moment, other gem cutters were all overjoyed and shouted.
Everyone looked over and were once again dumbfounded.
On the remaining nine cutting machines, gemstones were cut, including emerald, ruby, precious sapphire, and so on, with different shapes and sizes.
Soon, after these nine gemstones were marked as belonging to Wang Chao, they were also pushed onto the stage, arranged next to Han Fei's ten gemstones for comparison.
Gao Jun regained his senses, raised the microphone, and said, "Mr. Zhu, Mr. Lu, please give your evaluation."
Wang Chao had a jade stone of Guanyin Bodhisattva on his body. Standing beside Wang Chao, they also felt their blood pressure drop, and their years of kidney stones seemed to stop hurting.
Now that they had left Wang Chao's side, they felt like they had lost something.
However, as professional appraisers, they still did their job and evaluated the nine pieces of jade that Wang Chao had.
The total value of the nine pieces of jade was 8.23 million yuan!
This was their most professional and accurate assessment based on the market price of jade stones!
Although these jade stones were not as valuable as the Guanyin Bodhisattva jade stone, they were much higher in terms of size, quality, and pattern compared to the stones cut by Han Fei.
Han Fei also evaluated them and came to the same conclusion as Zhu Haochang, his face turning green and purple in anger.
In the first round of the competition, he had lost!
Defeated utterly!
Even if Wang Chao didn't use the Guanyin Bodhisattva jade stone, the other nine pieces of jade were enough to outshine the gemstones he had appraised.
"In the first round, Wang Chao wins!" Gao Jun exclaimed loudly.
"Damn, I was wrong about him. This young man is hiding his skills."
"I remember he casually pointed out ten stones earlier, and all ten turned out to be top-quality gemstones. That's truly the Midas touch!"
"That's right, Wang Chao is too fast. He can identify top-quality gemstones with just a glance, while Han Fei has to spend so much time measuring, observing, and appraising. The gap in their appraisal skills is like night and day. Wang Chao is too strong!"
"Mr. Wang, I apologize for my earlier nonsense."
As these words fell, the looks in the eyes of everyone at the scene changed from initial doubt, ridicule, and schadenfreude to fanatical admiration for Wang Chao.
Wang Chao collected the nine pieces of jade and put them in a bag, then walked up to Han Fei. "Mr. Han, I won this round."
Han Fei clenched his teeth, feeling a strong sense of defeat, but he still maintained a calm and arrogant appearance, saying coldly, "You've only won one round, there are still four more rounds to go. The outcome is not decided yet!"
"That's right, Wang Chao, you just got lucky. Next, my master will definitely win!" Yan Jun also gritted his teeth.
Wang Chao glanced at them and said arrogantly, "Stop struggling, you're not my opponents at all. However, I can accept the proposal of surrendering and losing half of the bet!"
"You can surrender now!"
