Chinatown is a special term for areas where Huaxia people gather in cities of other countries.

The formation of Chinatown is due to Huaxia people moving overseas, becoming a minority group in the local area.

Facing a new environment, they need to help each other, naturally congregating in one area.

Therefore, most Chinatowns are a testament to the history of Huaxia people overseas.

This Chinatown is located at the southern end of Manhattan.

At the same time, it can also be said to be the place with the most Huaxia people in the entire United States.

"Tsk tsk! Coming to this place feels just like returning to Huaxia!"

Han Ruyu said while looking around at the people.

"Yeah! It is, indeed, my first time in a place like this! I've heard a lot about it before, but it's really my first time here."

Yang Yan said with a smile.

"The exhibition is over there. It looks like it has already started. Let's hurry over!"

Zhou Hanyun, anxious about the materials here, had been searching for the exhibition venue as soon as she got out of the car.

"Oh! Is it over there?"

Seeing Zhou Hanyun heading over, Yang Yan and Han Ruyu quickly followed.

It was the first time for the three of them to see so much jadeite raw material.

Although not every stone here contains jadeite, who knows if there might be a priceless jadeite among them.

Although Yang Yan didn't understand raw stone materials, he was no ordinary person!

These stones, though appearing similar on the outside, are hard for the average person to distinguish, but if Yang Yan wished, he could totally sense what's inside.

Zhou Hanyun was a bit excited at this moment.

This exhibition was a big deal.

Looking at the densely packed raw stones, Zhou Hanyun's eyes were gleaming as she examined them continuously.

"What's up? Can you tell with your bare eyes if there's jadeite inside?"

Yang Yan teased.

"You don't understand!"

Zhou Hanyun raised her eyebrows, saying somewhat proudly:

"You don't know. Over the past two years, I've crammed a lot of knowledge about jadeite raw stones."

"Also, you know where we've been living these past two years."

"Those materials can almost be considered the essence of Huaxia's cultural history."

Pausing there, Zhou Hanyun continued:

"I don't have the ability to see through these raw stones directly, but I have ways to discern if there's jadeite inside them!"

Han Ruyu couldn't help but roll her eyes at Zhou Hanyun, saying with a sense of wonder:

"It's true! This woman was almost obsessed for a time!"

"I was always curious why she constantly read those books."

"Initially, I thought it was because she owned a jewelry store. Turns out she was waiting for this!"

Just when Yang Yan and Han Ruyu followed the enthusiastic Zhou Hanyun, walking among the mountain-like raw stones, she suddenly stopped in front of a pile.

"Come and look. All these raw stones are genuine old mine stones! Fair prices, don't miss out on this chance!"

"So, beautiful lady, do you want to check out the raw materials I have here? They're all from the old mines of Pakang."

The vendor said to Zhou Hanyun, beaming with a smile.

"Aren't they all raw stones? What's the difference?"

Yang Yan asked, puzzled.

"Hehe! This handsome guy jokes around. Everyone knows Pakang is one of the earliest mining sites!"

"Since the sixteenth century, an old mining district has formed here, with a tertiary conglomerate geological structure, a typical area for jadeite."

"And I'm not bragging. The raw materials here have even yielded Imperial Green multiple times."

The vendor grinned with pride.

It felt as though he had mined it himself.

"Oh? You've had Imperial Green before?"

Yang Yan said with some surprise.

Yang Yan had seen Imperial Green before.

Or rather, he's familiar with this top-grade jadeite type.

Last time at the underground auction in Myanmar, Yang Yan acquired a piece of Imperial Green raw material.

The jewelry made from that Imperial Green was later bought at a high price by Ma Laowu, who lost a bet.

But that thing was indeed a genuine treasure!

"Yeah, so how about it? Want to buy some? Maybe the next one to find Imperial Green will be you guys!"

The vendor said somewhat enticingly.

"Hah! Do you take us for fools? If it were so easy to find, it wouldn't be so rare today!"

Han Ruyu said disdainfully.

The vendor was clearly not encountering such customers for the first time and said nonchalantly:

"Isn't that all about luck? Besides, I can tell you guys must be lucky ones!"

"If you buy a few raw stones, maybe you'll actually find one!"

Han Ruyu widened her eyes, jokingly saying:

"Wow, these days you can't do business without a few tricks up your sleeve, huh!"

"A raw stone seller who can even read fortunes, now that's something that turns my worldview upside down."

Though an old hand in the business world, the vendor felt a bit embarrassed under Han Ruyu's gaze.

However, having boasted already, backing down would surely make him lose face with this beauty.

"Alright, let's see for ourselves if there's jadeite inside these stones."

Zhou Hanyun said, bending over to start selecting stones.

Yang Yan imitated her, casually picking up a raw stone and examining it closely.

The outer layers of these raw materials were quite varied.

There were gray ones, yellow ones, and even red ones.

However, their surfaces were rather rough.

Yang Yan rubbed the surface of the stone lightly with his hand, feeling it slightly prickly.

Also, this particular piece of raw material was relatively small, seemingly unlikely to contain Imperial Green.

Just then, Zhou Hanyun spoke again.

"The quality of raw materials here is alright, but as for finding Imperial Green, I surely don't believe it."

"Most of these stones have already been picked over, and by experts, so there are hardly any overlooked ones."

"But fortunately, we're here for raw materials, not just Imperial Green. So, these are still somewhat useful for us."

After a careful look at these raw stones, Zhou Hanyun said.

Han Ruyu immediately became outraged upon hearing this.

"Hey! Vendor, that's sneaky! These stones have been picked over, and you're still trying to fool us into believing there's Imperial Green inside?! A sheer con artist!"
