Lin Bei is a down-and-out young man who runs a stall at the jade gambling market on the Ruili border, scraping by selling rough jade blocks for a few dozen yuan apiece. Then one day, a piece of broken jadeite scrap accidentally cut his finger. As his blood seeped into the jade, Lin Bei awakened a miraculous pair of “Jade Eyes” that could see inside uncut stones. Whether a stone was completely uncut or partially exposed, one focused glance revealed its texture, translucency, cracks, and color veins.
