More than a billion and 40 ht!
This wasthe lottery, which explained why a Gold had a fixed value, but jade did not As long as you found a good rock, you could stand to ht!
Zhong Dapao and his gang were in a si on rocks, they lived frugally, carefully calculating how much they spent on necessities like food Now, after only two days, they had over thirty e sum of money, but it did not shock the masses all that e, if not larger, su the public auction where there were stones worth more than a million before they were cut open For those rocks, the winning bid would go as high as 5 or 6to someone as not in this line of work
However, that was so a public bid where they had the best rocks fro areas It was different froular day, there was a rock priced over a billion — a price that was reached after the rock was cut to produce tens of jade pieces It was quite legendary
Aside from the days of public auctions, the value of jade cut froular day at publica rock worth teninto consideration, what Li Du and his colleagues reaped today was truly so to marvel at and talk about
His bet with Old Hua truly paled in co Dapao and Liu Zi howled, vocalizing their excitement Da Mao, on the other hand, stood in front of the jade like a fool, taking all of it in
Out of all of them, Li Du was the only one who could maintain his composure He told Old Hua, “One million”
After that, he turned to the banker who supervised the bet “Five-to-one odds, so that makes it five million for every one of us here Pay up”
The banker laughed bitterly “Fck, I’m done for this time Guess I’ll have to pay!”

“Pay up, Old Hua, pay up! Give me my million!”
Old Hua paled visibly and there were envy and hatred swi in his eyes, but he was no sore loser For people who dabbled in this gah to lose sleep over
He wrote a check to Zhong Dapao then chuckled coldly “Careful there, Master Pao Youa deal Honna earn just as ht!”
At his words, Da Mao retorted io up in price after you cut it? How naive can you be? It’s obviously going to be a loss!”
Old Hua was filled with rage Their confrontation froht and now the boy was bringing up the saloat over, so it was no surprise that Old Hua would be angry
It was one thing to be angry and another to lash out This time, he knew better than to scold Da Mao to his face Earlier during the rock cutting, Li Du had been intentionally steering the conversation and attributing all the credit of discovering the rock to Da Mao
Da Mao le victory and rose to fame Now, everyone in the publicDapao and Li Du It was he as the real prodigy of gaer in check after Da Mao’s assessoing to become of the rock I have?”
