Half an hour later, the Qin family procured a piece of fine mutton-fat jade!
Ye Fei took the mutton-fat jade and carefully examined its textures, nodding slightly.
"Xiao Fei, how is it? Not bad, is it?"
At this moment, Old Master Qin's gaze fell on Ye Fei, and he immediately inquired.
"Very good, it's a piece of excellent mutton-fat jade," Ye Fei replied, glancing at Old Master Qin and nodding.
"Hahaha! Of course! Our Qin family is in the jade business, so the quality of our jade can't possibly be bad."
"Especially this piece of mutton-fat jade, Xiao Fan, let me tell you, this is a treasure our Qin family has cherished for many years. If it weren't for your superb carving skills, I really wouldn't have been willing to take it out."
Upon hearing Ye Fei's words, Old Master Qin burst into a hearty and proud laugh.
The other members of the Qin family also wore proud expressions.
"Grandpa, stop being smug. Let brother-in-law hurry up and get rid of the gloomy energy in this creepy-looking house."
Seeing her grandfather going on and on, Qin Bing immediately complained.
"Yes, yes, the important matter comes first. You see me... I get so happy and excited that I forget the important things."
Old Master Qin snapped back to reality and agreed repeatedly.
Afterward, the Qin family members didn't linger, their gazes all fixed on Ye Fei, awaiting his carving.
Previously, although the Qin family knew that Ye Fei's carving skills were extremely high, none of them, except for Qin Bing, had actually witnessed it.
This time, Ye Fei was going to give a live demonstration in front of all the Qin family members. This was no small matter!
At this moment, the Qin family members were filled with excitement and anticipation.
Ye Fei, however, was not preoccupied with such thoughts. He picked up the carving knife, pondered for a moment, and began to carve.
Beside him, Qin Bing watched. Although it was the second time she had seen it, her heart was still filled with shock!
Yes, shock!
The fluid movements were simply perfect.
Most importantly, when the mutton-fat jade entered his hands, along with the carving knife, it seemed to have become an extension of Ye Fei's body!
This was simply... unbelievable!
The other members of the Qin family, including Old Master Qin, had all seen their fair share of the world.
Furthermore, they were in the jade business themselves. Therefore, when they witnessed the carving skills Ye Fei displayed, the shock that resonated from their hearts reached an unimaginable level!
This... is this carving?
Why is it that for others, even those gold medal carving masters, they need to carve carefully, knife by knife, but in Ye Fei's hands, it's so effortless? So simple?
At this moment, if they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they wouldn't have believed what they were seeing.
This... damn it! Too... too...
"Hoo hoo hoo!"
After a long while, a chorus of gasps echoed through the scene!
It turned out that because they were so engrossed in watching, they had forgotten to breathe!
As a result, their faces were all flushed, and when they came to their senses, they were all gasping for air.
However, even as they gasped, their eyes never left Ye Fei's hands!
And following the crowd's gaze, as Ye Fei's hands moved, the lucky cat was gradually taking shape.
In everyone's impression, a lucky cat was just an ordinary jade ornament.
However, the lucky cat that Ye Fei was carving was completely different!
Yes, completely different!
Although Ye Fei had not fully completed the carving, as everyone looked, they could clearly feel that the lucky cat carved by Ye Fei was extremely spirited!
Yes, after racking their brains, the word "spirited" was the only way they could describe it.
At first glance, it seemed as if it had come to life!
And if they stared for too long, it was as if the raised little paw was beckoning to them!
"This... it's divine! Truly divine... I feel like this lucky cat is moving..."
At this moment, Old Master Qin couldn't help but murmur to himself.
At this moment, he felt that perhaps he was getting old and his eyes were playing tricks on him.
But even so, he was already sufficiently shocked.
It could be said that in his more than half a century of life, this was the first time he had seen such a lucky cat!
Was this still a lucky cat? It was more like a spirited cat.
"Grandpa, you saw it too? I thought I was mistaken... I also feel like the lucky cat is moving."
Just then, Qin Bing also spoke.
Swish! Swish!
It was better that Qin Bing hadn't spoken. The moment she did, Old Master Qin's expression suddenly changed.
Immediately, he raised his head and looked towards Qin Bing.
At this moment, Old Master Qin discovered that not only him, but almost all the Qin family members had expressions similar to his. As he looked over, they all nodded slightly.
With these nods, Old Master Qin knew what they meant!
That is to say, not only him, but everyone had seen the lucky cat moving!
What did this mean?
This meant that it wasn't an illusion!
Could it be that this lucky cat was truly...
"Alright, it's done."
At this moment, Ye Fei's voice interrupted the astonishment and wild thoughts of everyone present.
And at this moment, when Old Master Qin looked hurriedly, he found that Ye Fei had already finished carving the lucky cat.
At this moment, the lucky cat, at a glance, was lifelike, as if it were alive!
What was even more exaggerated was that Ye Fei had not only carved a lucky cat, but even its fur was lifelike, very realistic and three-dimensional!
It could be said that if this lucky cat were placed outside, people would think it was a real cat at first glance.
"Perfect! This is simply a perfect work of art!"
Old Master Qin took a deep breath after a long moment, and immediately sighed with emotion.
The other members of the Qin family also nodded in agreement.
"Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, where do you think this lucky cat should be placed?"
At this moment, Qin Bing immediately ran over and asked Ye Fei doubtfully.
"Where else can it be placed? Of course, it should be placed in the most conspicuous position of the shop! To attract wealth, to attract wealth. If it's not placed in a prominent position where no one sees it, how can it attract wealth!"
Before Ye Fei could speak, Old Master Qin had already spoken.
He put on an expression that suggested he understood a bit about feng shui.
The Qin family members also nodded at Old Master Qin's words.
Instantly, Old Master Qin's expression became even more proud.
"I don't think so."
Ye Fei glanced at Old Master Qin and slowly said.
"Hmm?"
Seeing that Ye Fei disagreed with him, Old Master Qin's expression faltered, and he looked somewhat displeased.
"Xiao Fan, then where do you suggest we place it?"
After all, Ye Fei was their Qin family's precious son-in-law. Therefore, even though Old Master Qin was somewhat unhappy, he didn't say anything or show any displeasure.
Swish! Swish!
At this moment, the eyes of the other Qin family members also instantly fell on Ye Fei.
"The ancients said, wealth should not be displayed, otherwise, it attracts trouble, and in severe cases, it can even lead to death!"
"Although there is some exaggeration in these matters, they clearly demonstrate that it is better to be low-key when one has money. Being too ostentatious is not necessarily a good thing."
"For example, the Young Master Zhao from before, and Gao Lei, the second-generation heir from the Gao family, what do you think?"
Ye Fei glanced at the Qin family members and spoke with a smile.
Afterward, Ye Fei felt that simply saying this might not convince Old Master Qin and the others.
Therefore, he didn't say much more and directly used real-life examples to illustrate his point.
Initially, Old Master Qin was somewhat unconvinced by Ye Fei's words.
However, when they considered Ye Fei's perspective and thought of the two wealthy second-generation heirs, Zhao Gongzi and Gao Lei, they truly felt that what Ye Fei said made a lot of sense.
