Chapter 24: Xīn'ér's Recommendation!
A green color appeared on the surface of the jade, but it was not that natural, transparent glass-like color.
"It's a bean-green jade." A connoisseur identified the variety of this piece of jade and said loudly.
What beans?
Lin Xiao thought for a moment and realized that he didn't know what "bean species" meant at all, but judging from the expressions of these guests, this bean species seemed to be worthless.
"What a pity! It's just an ordinary bean seed after all. This jade stone has been gambled away for nothing." someone said.
This time Lin Xiao understood that even if he didn't understand anything else, the meaning of the word "kui" was clear to him. It was obvious that this time he had lost out.
"After all, I just wanted to see the boundary, and if it's broken, then so be it." Lin Xiao thought indifferently in his heart, but a small sense of loss still existed. To be honest, Lin Xiao was still looking forward to the appearance of the glass type.
Zhang Rui Xiang's movements stopped, he raised his head and looked at Lin Xiao, asking: "Still cut?"
Lin Xiao didn't quite understand, but he still nodded, "It's okay, Zhang Ge, you can cut it off."
Zhang Ruixiang nodded and continued cutting with his head down.
A small piece of jade, it's not possible to cut it in half right away. It needs a little bit of grinding, gradually wearing away the surface stone dust, and the process must be done with great care. If you're not careful and accidentally damage the jade inside, that would be a disaster.
Zhang Ruixiang's craftsmanship is indeed worthy of praise, and under his operation, Lin Xiao's jade stone was quickly cut into a decent shape. In fact, it proved that although Lin Xiao lost this time, he didn't lose much. Although it was a small piece of Feicui, its size was still quite large, and even if it were sold, it could be sold for around 4,000 to 5,000 yuan.
Lin Xiao was paying attention and found that the red light decreased as it cut, until Zhang Rui Xiang stopped, the red light was still at its original brightness.
"Little brother, your luck isn't too bad." Zhang Rui Xiang handed the jade to Lin Xiao, "I think you shouldn't sell it either, keeping it as a memento is fine too."
"Zhang Ge, I didn't plan on selling it anyway." Lin Xiao smiled as he took the jade and after Zhang Rui Xiang gave him a bag to wrap it in, he directly threw it into his bag.
Other guests, having watched the show, dispersed, and soon someone else bought a few pieces of jade rough stone. This time Zhang Rui Xiang did not take action himself, but instead let the two employees in the store do it, while he chatted with Lin Xiao and several familiar customers.
Lin Xiao stayed in Zhang Rui Xiang's store for about an hour or two, and didn't leave until almost 10 o'clock. Zhang Rui Xiang had originally wanted to invite Lin Xiao to have lunch together, but was refused. If it weren't for Zhang Rui Xiang constantly introducing him to successful people or rich young masters, and his own curiosity about this new thing called "gambling stones", he would have left long ago. After all, he was eager to try out the two items he had bought today and see how much spiritual energy they could absorb, enough to let him enter that world again.
It has to be said that the risk of guessing the quality of a jade stone is really high. Lin Xiao had watched Zhang Rui Xiang cut open dozens of raw stones, but not one of them had increased in value after being cut. It was unclear whether it was Lin Xiao's bad luck or the bad luck of those people.
After leaving Antique Street, Lin Xiao didn't immediately go home, but instead found a restaurant and opened a private room.
After ordering some dishes casually, he instructed the waiter not to come in and disturb him. The other party wasn't seeing a customer like Lin Xiao for the first time either, so they didn't think it was strange.
Bang!
He closed the door, Lin Xiao pulled out a chair and sat down, poured himself a drink and gulped it down before picking up his backpack and placing it on the table.
"There's still over five thousand left, let's keep it for now." He glanced at the money in the package, then took out the copper cat and the wrapped jade from the package and placed them on the table.
"The red light of the emerald is much weaker than that of the iron cat, let's absorb the emerald first."
Lin Xiao picked up the well-packaged jade, tore open the packaging bag, held the jade with one hand, and connected to Xiang'er in the Wan Jie system.
"Xin'er, help me see how much boundary power this jade on my hand can absorb?" Lin Xiao thought to himself.
"Alright, brother." Xiang Er's figure flashed in his mind, followed by a few numbers jumping around in Lin Xiao's brain.
"A total of 131 points of first-class small boundary power can be absorbed."
"Is it 131 points?" Lin Xiao put down the jade in his hand and picked up the copper cat, "Then help me see how much boundary power this copper cat can absorb."
"Alright."
Xin'er's small hand waved in Lin Xiao's mind, and suddenly several numbers jumped out in his mind again.
"A total of 380 points of first-class small boundary power can be absorbed."
"Brother, do you want to absorb it all?" Xiner asked.
"Absorb, absorb everything." Lin Xiao commanded directly, one hand grasping the jade and the other holding the copper cat.
"Great!" Xiang'er laughed and waved her small hand, immediately the thing in Lin Xiao's hand overflowed with sparkling stars that poured into his body. After the stars disappeared, the jade and copper cat in his hand instantly turned to dust and fell onto the dinner table.
Lin Xiao patted the powder off his hands and with a thought, his personal attribute list popped up.

"With 540 boundary points, this is enough to open up a higher-level world." Lin Xiao muttered to himself.
"Brother, I suggest you go back to the previous world for a while and train, then Xiang'er will recommend that you open up a special world." Suddenly, Xiang'er's voice sounded in his mind.
"A special world?" Lin Xiao's eyes flickered with a hint of confusion, "What is this 'special world'?"
"It's a very special world! That world is full of magic!" Xīn'ér said with an air of mystery.
"Magic? Can I cultivate magic then?" Lin Xiao's interest was immediately piqued as soon as he heard the two words "magic".
"Of course, but magic isn't that easy to learn, so I suggest you temporarily go back to the previous world and train for a while. Make thorough preparations and it's best if you can increase your combat strength, otherwise you'll only get bullied in that world."
"Don't worry, I'm not ready to be abused yet!" Lin Xiao laughed and said, "It seems that the plan needs to be accelerated. Originally, I wanted to wait for a while before entering that world again, but now it seems that I have to advance it."
Lin Xiao had originally planned to rest in the real world for a few days before returning to his previous world to train, but now that he heard Xiang'er's words, he felt an urgent feeling, and whatever rest or no rest, it was all nonsense to him!
