C54 (1/2)

This piece of emerald was extremely transparent. According to Ye Xuan's knowledge, it was very likely to be a glass that was rarer than ice.

Thus, although the price of this unremarkable stone was as high as two million, the jadeite contained inside was definitely much higher than the price of the stone.

This was a deal that would never lose money. Ye Xuan said confidently: ”Waiter, pack this up for me.”

When Ding Qiang, who was walking over, saw this, he could not help but sneer inside, and treated Ye Xuan as a fool who gave him money for free.

Who knew how many people had come to check this rock? There were many famous masters in the industry among them.

However, no matter who it was, no one bought it because this stone was simply too ordinary. There wasn't even a hint of green in it, so the bid of two million was no different from trying to attract attention.

The more Ye Xuan bought from this kind of stone, the more he would earn from it. As such, he was happy to see the result, and silently followed Ye Xuan as he watched him become a prodigal.

Seeing Ding Qiang's secretly delighted look, Ye Xuan suddenly said to him: ”Ding Qiang, didn't you want to befriend me? Now that I bought so many ores here, why don't you give me a 20% discount? ”

”This is impossible!” Ding Qiang immediately rejected it, ”You bought at least thirty to forty million stones, if I give you a twenty percent discount, wouldn't you lose a few million?”

”Oh, then I won't buy that much. I haven't paid for it yet anyway.” Ye Xuan smiled playfully.

Ding Qiang hesitated. If Ye Xuan suddenly refused to buy it, then this idiot did not have enough money.

After all, most of the stones that Ye Xuan bought were obviously not for sale.

However, when he thought about the 20% discount, he still felt pained. He thought for a while and said, ”I can give you 60% off of this 2 million, but only this piece. What do you think?”

He was very sure that this two million stone piece definitely did not contain any jade, which was why he was willing to give Ye Xuan a twenty percent discount.

Although he would earn eight hundred thousand less with this kind of discount, it was still worth it when he thought about how Ye Xuan had lost out by several tens of millions.

”In that case, how about we make a bet?” Ye Xuan suddenly said with a smile.

”Bet?” Ding Qiang looked at Ye Xuan strangely, and thought of the bet between Ouyang Xun and him that he had yesterday, ”Tell me first, how should I bet?”

Although he was the dignified Lu Corporation's manager and was not afraid of Ye Xuan playing any tricks, he would not easily agree to a wager to prevent himself from falling into Ye Xuan's pit. After all, what happened yesterday was way beyond his imagination.

”We'll bet this 2 million yuan stone on it. If it does, then I'll give you 10% off all the stones I bought today. If it doesn't, then I won't be taking the discount on this stone, what do you think?”

”This …” Ding Qiang hesitated for a while, then looked at the ore in front of him that no one was interested in for a long time, and immediately agreed, ”Alright, then I'll bet with you!”

This ore was already a genuine piece of trash. If Ding Qiang agreed to it, there would be no need to pay that eight hundred thousand for it.

Zhang Min who was at the side looked at Ye Xuan with some anticipation. Could it be that he was really that confident that she could win the bet?

If he could really get a 20% discount on all of them, then that would be a huge profit.

”Alright, Mr. Ding is indeed straightforward. Let's cut off this rock and have a look.” Ye Xuan clapped his hands and said.

When the surrounding people heard that God of Stones wanted to make a bet with someone else, they hurriedly surrounded Ye Xuan and the others, so much so that not even a drop of water could leak out.

When the Lithologist arrived, everyone cheered.

The process of opening the stone was extremely thrilling and dangerous. Even if one was observing from the side, their mood would also fluctuate according to the minute movements of the Lithologist.

There had even been news reports that someone had died of a heart attack while watching the unravelling of a stone.

”Hmph, this Sharpei, is it really because I don't have the slightest confidence that I can make a bet with you?” Looking at Ye Xuan's fervent expression, Ding Qiang could not help but sneer inwardly.

Ding Qiang had specially come to know of all the ores present that were worth more than a million. He was very clear about which ones had a high chance of obtaining jade and which ones did not.

As for this two million level stone, he already knew the inside story. All the experts determined that there was no jade in it, so they took it out to cheat the rookie.

After all, there were many rich people in this world who had no money to spend, and gamblers were especially anxious. They would blindly believe that they could give out top-grade jades out of the expensive stones.

From Ding Qiang's perspective, Ye Xuan was clearly such a person. It was too easy to get money, but also very lucky.

This time, he easily agreed to Ye Xuan's bet. Ding Qiang just wanted to see him suffer a terrible defeat to slightly alleviate the anger from his loss yesterday.

Ye Xuan looked to be completely innocent as he focused on watching Lithologist start to open the stone.

Because there was a very large piece of emerald inside and it was very likely to be made of glass, Ye Xuan did not want it to suffer even the slightest bit of damage.

Time seemed to have passed extremely slowly. Everyone held their breaths and stared straight at the ore in Lithologist's hands. The atmosphere was extremely tense.

Only Ding Qiang stood there looking down on them, with his arms folded across his chest. Occasionally, he would steal a peek at Zhang Min.

”Look, it's giving out jade!”
