Chapter 239 The Process of Circulation of Unpolished Stones
While Stone was using a cutter to cut the rough stone, Gu Chen looked at the cutter curiously.
Well, it's powered by elemental forces, not electricity.
Sure enough, after discovering this, the cutting machine looked much more pleasing to the eye.
Compared to Gu Chen who was focusing on the cutting machine, everyone else's attention was on the rough stone being cut.
Including Finina and Paimon, everyone watched without blinking as the rough stone was gradually cut.
As the cut became larger, the people around became more excited and expectant.
The only guy who was extremely nervous was Shi Tou.
At this moment, he was carefully cutting the rough stone with his eyes fixed on it, while praying madly to the Rock King in his heart, praying that the goods he cut would be acceptable!
Otherwise, if Lord Gou Chenxing gets angry, he doesn’t know whether his life can be saved, and he will definitely not be able to continue his business!
Just as everyone was in a state of mixed feelings, one side of the rough stone was about to be cut off.
With a slight click, the stone skin on this side of the raw stone was completely separated from the raw stone itself.
The moment they separated, the stone skin also fell off.
The inside of the unpolished stone also appeared in front of everyone!
When everyone saw the internal structure, they gasped!
Really, it really did make me gasp.
At least Gu Chen could hear it clearly, and there were hissing sounds of people sucking in cold air all around him.
This shows how shocked everyone was.
There's nothing I can do about it, the stuff that came out was just too surprising.
People could see clearly that inside this rough stone was actually an extremely beautiful Yebo stone!
Although only one surface was cut out.
But just by looking at this layer of flat reflection, you can tell that the texture of this Yebo stone is not bad!
Those who come here to watch the fun are basically experts who know something about minerals and gems.
With their years of experience, they could tell at a glance that this Yebo Stone was extraordinary!
As a result, everyone was shocked and gasped.
As for Shi Tou, he was a little stupid.
Just now, his lowest expectation was to be able to produce acceptable goods.
But now it seems that this is not just a simple matter of passing, the products produced can be said to be quite excellent!
what is this?
Exceeded expectations? Lucky?
No matter what, at least Stone understood one thing.
His business was saved, so Lord Gou Chenxing would definitely not be unhappy.
With such thoughts and a lingering fear, Shitou looked at Gu Chen cautiously:
"Lord Gou Chenxing, this is clearly a price increase, and a big one at that.
Excuse me...will you continue cutting?"
The question about stone is definitely not nonsense.
Because in this circle, one knife makes you rich, one knife makes you poor, one knife makes you rich, one knife makes you dead.
Even if the price has increased after the first cut, it is only a temporary increase.
If you continue cutting, no one knows what will happen next.
What if there are internal cracks?
What if the impurities inside are cut out?
What if there are any internal defects?
If such a bad thing is really cut out, the price of this rough stone, which was originally increased by cutting, will drop instead, which would be a waste of effort.
Therefore, many professional buyers will choose to stop trying and just sell the item when they encounter similar situations.
After all, the price has already increased, so you can make a considerable profit just by reselling it.
As for whether this rough stone should continue to be cut and what can be cut out by continuing to cut it.
That's none of his business, the risk has been transferred to the next buyer he sells it to.
Of course, risks also mean opportunities.
If the next buyer he sells it to cuts it again, the price may increase again, and there may be no flaws if he cuts it again.
That way, the next buyer will also make a profit.
As for the next buyer, no matter if he gets a profit or a loss, what he does with the rough stone is his business.
You may choose to cut it a few more times, or you may choose to cut it all open.
It is also possible to choose to sell it again and sell it to the next buyer.
When the next buyer takes over, the situation and choices he faces are similar to those of the two buyers above.
In this way, this uncut rough stone will circulate among buyers one after another.
The process of circulation is also the process of wealth circulation.
Until... this rough stone was completely opened up and turned into a piece of gemstone raw material.
At this point, this rough stone can no longer be called a rough stone.
Its fate is to fall into the hands of a jeweler or jeweler craftsman and be polished into a piece of jewelry or luxury goods.
Eventually, the polished and manufactured luxury goods flowed into Liyue's upper-class luxury market.
The above is the entire fate of a piece of raw stone from mining to its final destination.
Similarly, this is the reason why Shitou asked whether he wanted to continue cutting.
After Shi Tou asked this question, for a moment, almost everyone around focused their attention on Gu Chen.
Before Gu Chen could say anything, a confused guy in the crowd suddenly shouted:
"Lord Gou Chenxing! I'll pay you two million Mora! How about selling me this piece of Night Moor Stone?"
This is a typical speculator.
He may think that if he continues to cut this rough stone, it may increase in size.
So he wanted to take the risk and buy it in advance, so that he could make another profit.
However... this person really doesn't understand the situation clearly. He dares to speak nonsense in front of Gu Chen. Or is he too greedy and his mind is confused?
Sure enough, another passerby standing next to this man gave him an elbow rudely:
"How can you have any say in this matter?!"
The elbow hit the man directly in the face, knocking him to the ground and seemingly knocking him unconscious.
Then the man who took action looked at Gu Chen apologetically:
"Don't worry about it, Lord Gou Chenxing, he's just a guy with a hole in his brain!"
The other people around nodded and agreed, agreeing that this guy was indeed stupid.
Seeing this, Gu Chen couldn't help but laugh. He said:
“Even if he had asked me that just now, I wouldn’t have been able to answer him.
Because whether to sell or not, or whether to continue cutting this rough stone, is not my decision."
After saying that, Gu Chen looked at Funina who was standing next to the cutting machine:
"This rough stone belongs to my friend. I will do whatever she wants."
As a result, the attention of the people around was focused on Funina again.
The same was true for the stone. She held up the rough stone that had been cut open and looked at Funina cautiously, asking for her opinion:
"Sir, look..."
Finina's eyes were very determined, and she made the final decision:
"Cut! Keep cutting! Cut it all out!"
After hearing what Furninna said, Shitou became more resolute and nodded seriously.
"Okay, I see."
So next, Shi Tou chose an angle, fixed the rough stone on the cutting machine, and then continued to control the cutting machine to cut.
