Chapter 1521 - Making A Mark (2/2)
Da Mao was undeniably the star of the night He had never been treated in such a lee In response to Old Hua’s question, he walked over and gave the rock a kick before saying, “I don’t knohat about the rock caught your eye, but it’s garbage”
Old Hua’s face was gloomy “What’s so bad about it, exactly? Look at the python stripes, aren’t they pretty?”
Da Mao burst into laughter “What an idiot Did you set out to buy a rock or a stripe? You can try to dress it up and call it a python but a python is, at the end of the day, still just a snake Have you actually seen a snake with stripes as broad as this? What did you buy, a gargantuan boa?”
The crowd roared with laughter and joined in the antuan boa? It’s still a snake!”
Da Mao sneered “It went extinct ages ago, that’s what! You guys are so old school Don’t you understand? The green on a stripe is a e piece of bark Buy a stripe, not a piece — don’t you know thisidiots, the lot of you”
Old Hua hauled the rock up onto the platform and said coolly, “Cut this open, but just a little”
Da Mao said, “There’s no need for that, it’s io up—”
Li Du pulled hietting carried away?”
The admonishment calmed Da Mao down considerably but he still sneered, “Hehe, I’ hih Take the ether “What’s my cut?”
Li Du handed over a few checks to the boy “This is the hundred thousand I proive you This half-million is your cut froht that has proved to be valuable, I’reed 666, for good luck”
“Six million, six hundred and sixty thousand?” Da Mao asked excitedly
Li Du nodded “That’s right Let’s go”
Liu Zi held him back “Wait, Master Li, let’s not leave so soon”
Li Du frowned “What, you want to stay for the spectacle?”
Liu Zi chuckled darkly “No, it’s just that we’re too conspicuous What if we leave and someone pounces on us? I’ve called a few of e to escort us Let’s wait till they’re here”
Li Du turned his words over in his head and realized thea rock worth a billion and 40 et painted on their back There were definitely more than just a few people who had their eyes on the bunch of them, and Hpakant was known for its ruffians There was just no telling what such people would do to get their hands on the rock!
The polishi+ng master wielded his knife like a sword Under his ministrations, Old Hua’s rock quickly dily pale with every cut Finally, the rock was cut to no profit “It’s a loss!”
It’s a how much despair a mere tords could cause
Old Hua was crushed He said quietly, “This rock cost me two million… to think it would be a loss!”
The rock was not that muchwho ga was not solely financial The loss dealt a blow to their uably the killer shot
Zhong Dapao and Liu Zi beca attention to this fiasco Instead, they were staring suspiciously at Da Mao
