"Keep cutting! Maybe it only has a small piece of jadeite on the surface!" Andy urged the staff."Oh, that's possible!"The others realized as they all saw how the last rock Andy selected contained only a small piece of cloudy-clear jadeite on the surface.As the rock Leon chose seemed to be of low quality, they realized that this might be the same situation as Andy's last rock."Snap!"The staff cut again and revealed a shade of red inside to their surprise."It's red!""Could this be a high-quality ice-clear jadeite with a shade of red?"...Jaws dropped around them.Among the category of clear jadeite, the best quality of them would be referred to as ice-clear jadeite.Though jadeites came in different colors, it was extremely rare for top-quality jadeite to contain other colors and with each color it contained, its value would skyrocket."How could this be?" Andy paled.He thought that a low-end rock would only contain a small piece of jadeite on the surface at best li
"Snap!"Under the doubtful looks of Andy and the others, the staff cut into the rock once again, revealing a shade of purple."Purple?""W- what is this?""Why is there another color?"...Andy and the others gasped in shock.Andy thought that the shade of red would continue to the deepest part of the rock and did not expect to see a shade of purple. However, the shade of purple would likely lower the transparency of the jadeite, so its' value would drop.Despite his inner thoughts, what happened next shook him to the core."It's not just an ordinary shade of purple! This is a piece of Three-Colored Jadeite!"...The experienced rock gamblers gasped when they realized how special the jadeite was.There were plenty of variations in colors for jadeite, including yellow, white, red, green, purple, black, and blue.When three different colors were found on the same piece of jadeite, it would be referred to as Three-Colored Jadeite that falls under the category of high-quality
"No green?" Andy's heart sank as an ominous feeling overwhelmed him.He questioned Leon's claim that his rock contained top-quality jadeite, yet it came true. He later challenged that there was only jadeite on the surface, only to be proven wrong again when the shade of red was revealed.He later pointed out that the shade of red was out of proportion, only for a shade of purple to be revealed shortly after that and the jadeite's value increased by a few folds.Though everyone was certain that the jadeite would not contain a shade of green, Andy's instinct told him that they might all be wrong once again.As expected, a shade of green was revealed as the staff continued to cut into the rock."Green?""It's the Three-Colored Jadeite!""No! More precisely, this is a Four-Colored Jadeite!"...The colors red, green, purple, yellow, and white symbolized happiness, wealth, longevity, success, and peace.With the reveal of the fourth shade of color, the jadeite surpassed Three-Colo
"A piece of Four-Colored Jadeite, huh? I guess today is my lucky day!" Leon was surprised to see the colorful jadeite before him.He only chose the rock because he sensed the pure energy hidden inside. Though he expected to see top-quality jadeite inside, he did not anticipate finding something even better.A Four-Colored Jadeite symbolized all that was good in life and would be perfect as a birthday gift once made into a statue."Mister, are you selling your Four-Colored Jadeite? I'll pay 14 million for it!""You scammer! Even a cream-clear this size can go up to 14 million and that's all you are paying? I'll pay 28 million!""I can pay up to 42 million, young man!"...The jewelry and gemstones merchants fought over one another for a chance to purchase the jadeite from Leon.A Four-Colored Jadeite was extremely rare and because of the symbolism it held, wealthy families and powerful figures would pay fortunes over it. If any merchant managed to obtain it, they would profit tr
"Of course! I told you all that this rock contains top-quality jadeite from the beginning. You just won't believe it!" Leon said smugly in response to their compliments."But how do you know that?" Penny questioned.There were tens of thousands of rocks in the low-end area and it puzzled her as to how Leon managed to find the one piece that contained just valuable jadeite.'Does he have the superpower to see through the rocks?' She thought. 'But that's not possible!'"Well," Realizing that he could not explain his achievement with logic, Leon stuttered."Leon, you have some tricks that guided you to which rock to pick, don't you?" Iris asked as she recalled the Imperial Green necklace she received as a gift from Leon.She knew how Leon managed to obtain it and always thought that Leon was simply lucky. However, since Leon once again found an extremely rare jadeite, she realized there was more to the story and assumed that Leon had a secret trick or a certain talent that guided hi
"Why aren't you walking, Leon?" Iris was surprised that Leon stopped."Let's go check out the auction section!" Leon said calmly as he could hardly contain his excitement at the sight of a certain rock.He sensed an intensive wave of pure energy when he walked past the rock and the energy was even purer compared to the Four-Colored Jadeite in his hand. If he was not mistaken, there was yet another top-quality jadeite hidden inside."I think they're gambling on rocks there as well! You've already found a piece of Four-Colored Jadeite that can be used for Grandpa's birthday gift, so why are you going there?" Iris asked."We're already here, so we might as well check it out. Maybe I'll get another piece o top-quality jadeite!" Leon said casually."Another piece? Dream on!" Andy scoffed.He thought that Leon managed to obtain a piece of Four-Colored Jadeite out of sheer luck, so it would be impractical to think that Leon would get lucky again."Don't be so sure! Today's my lucky day
There were dozens of rocks in the display cabinet and there was a price tag next to each one of them. Depending on the size of the rocks and the quality of the jadeite exposed, their prices ranged from hundreds of thousands to millions.Because of the higher price range, most of the customers who gathered here were from wealthy families.Some of the customers who gathered for the big reveal of Leon's rock noticed that Leon and the others walked into the auction area.After finding the Four-Colored Jadeite in Leon's rock, they started to realize that Leon had sharp senses.Seeing how Leon was about to participate in another round of rock gambling, they followed Leon to the auction area to see if Leon would find yet another piece of top-quality jadeite, so the auction area was instantly packed with people.Leon ignored the others and strode up to the source of the energy he sensed with Iris, before stopping to study itThe rock was slightly smaller than the Four-Colored Jadeite and
"I said so before, Andy. You can't just rely on the appearance of the rock to make your judgment. The red jadeite on the surface doesn't look that great, but maybe there's a top-quality jadeite hidden inside! It's not completely impossible!" Leon said."Inside? You think that just because there's a faint shade of purple inside, you might find purple and even green, which makes it a Three-Colored Jadeite?" Andy questioned.The crowd stirred at his words."Is this another Three-Colored Jadeite again?""It's possible. Since there's red jadeite on the surface, the faint shade of purple may indicate that there's purple jadeite inside and if there's also a shade of green there, that would make it a piece of Three-Colored Jadeite!"...A few frequent customers started studying the rock.The color red, purple and green symbolized happiness, wealth, and longevity. Since this jadeite contained red and purple, it would be classified as a Three-Colored Jadeite if there was green jadeite hid
