Chapter 49 - Twenty-four million

"Surname Li, can you stop being so damn hurtful with your words? What do you mean by a blind cat stumbling upon a dead mouse? Why don't you, this open-eyed cat, stumble upon a few dead mice for me to see? Don't you pride yourself on being a stone gambling expert? Let me see your skill then!"

Without Ye Chen needing to say anything.

Zhang Jingshan immediately retorted for him.

"Alright, I'll let you see. Aren't there three more raw stones after this? Let's play the stakes to the end, dare you?"

Li Mu smiled coldly and sinisterly.

"What is there that I, Zhang Jingshan, don't dare? All these years, whenever you, Li Mu, wanted to play with me, when has I, Zhang Jingshan, not accompanied you to the end?" Zhang Jingshan said without backing down.

Even though he knew his knowledge and experience in stone gambling couldn't compare to Li Mu's.

But he still wouldn't retreat in the slightest.

Because with Ye Chen present, he seemed to have completely believed in Ye Chen's divine intuition.

More importantly, in front of Li Mu, there was no such thing as retreat for him, Zhang Jingshan!

"Excellent, then for these next three stones, let's play for big stakes!"

Although he had just lost a million.

At this moment, Li Mu was still confident of victory.

Zhang Jingshan coldly snorted.

Then he subconsciously looked towards Ye Chen.

The latter nodded slightly.

Soon.

"This is raw stone number seventeen from an old pit. It might yield glass jadeite. Thirty thousand. Is anyone interested?"

The middle-aged host said with a smile.

"I'll take it!"

A wealthy businessman, who had been shining a professional flashlight on the stone for a while, immediately said.

"I'll offer forty thousand!"

Ye Chen, who had only circled and observed the stones earlier without even using a flashlight, spoke up.

As soon as these words came out.

Everyone was instantly dumbfounded.

He was even bidding?

It was just said that it *might* yield glass jadeite, and looking at the surface and skin of the stone, the chance of cutting out glass jadeite didn't seem that high!

"Forty-two thousand!" The wealthy businessman frowned.

Was this guy here to cause trouble?

"Fifty thousand!" Ye Chen didn't even think.

"No, are you so sure there's really glass jadeite inside?" The wealthy businessman was stunned.

"Just want to take a gamble, hehe, why don't you let me have it?" Ye Chen grinned harmlessly.

"Fifty-two thousand!" The wealthy businessman ignored him and continued to raise the price.

"Sixty thousand!" Ye Chen smiled and called out again.

"You..."

The wealthy businessman was so angry his face turned liver-colored.

A stone worth thirty thousand was raised to sixty thousand?

Is this guy sick or something!

Not to mention that it would likely collapse after being cut, even if there was glass jadeite inside, if the quality was poor or the piece was very small, he would still lose a large sum.

Although the wealthy businessman didn't lack these tens of thousands, money didn't just fall from the sky after all.

After Ye Chen called out sixty thousand, he gave up.

"Idiot!"

Seeing Ye Chen raise the price of that blind stone to sixty thousand.

Li Mu sneered and shook his head.

If this stone could yield glass jadeite, he would run naked for an hour!

"President Zhang, I say this stone won't yield glass jadeite!"

After Ye Chen took down the blind stone for sixty thousand, Li Mu said playfully to Zhang Jingshan.

"I say it will. How do you want to play?" Zhang Jingshan said directly.

"Let's not talk about glass jadeite. As long as it can yield jadeite worth more than sixty thousand, I lose you three million! Conversely, you lose three million, how about it?" Li Mu said.

"Okay, then three million!" Zhang Jingshan didn't hesitate.

Seeing this, everyone present felt that these two young masters were crazy!

Using this kind of thing as a stake?

It was simply unheard of!

Of course, more people thought Zhang Jingshan was crazy, because the success rate of stone gambling was far lower than the failure rate.

As soon as the stake between the two young masters was set.

The middle-aged man in charge of stone gambling smiled and asked Ye Chen.

"Mr. Ye, do you want to cut it now?"

"Cut it!" Ye Chen said.

"Alright!"

A few minutes later.

Amidst a large crowd of onlookers.

According to Ye Chen's request, the cutting master made a cut.

Immediately.

Incredulous exclamations rose!

"Glass jadeite!"

"My god, this, could this be full-flesh glass jadeite?"

"It's glowing, and it's pure-colored glass jadeite that's glowing, holy cow!"

"If it's really full-flesh, this stone will soar in value by dozens of times!"

Exclamations rose one after another, non-stop.

Li Mu was stunned!

Zhang Jingshan and Li Changfeng were also dumbfounded.

First, high-quality old blue water with floating flowers was cut out.

Now, pure-colored glass jadeite that's glowing has been cut out.

This, could this guy possibly have X-ray vision?

"Mr. Ye, six million, sell it to me for six million!"

Only one side had been cut, but upon seeing that it was glowing glass jadeite, someone immediately excitedly offered to buy it.

But Ye Chen was unmoved.

He instructed the cutting master again, "Cut again, right here!"

According to Ye Chen's request, the cutting master made another cut in the opposite direction.

It was the same as the first cut.

The inside of the stone was full of glowing glass jadeite!

Neither cut surface had any impurities.

This could basically confirm that it was definitely full-flesh glass jadeite!

What is full-flesh?

It means that besides the skin of the stone, there is no excess part inside, it's all glowing glass jadeite!

"Don't cut anymore, don't cut anymore, twenty million, I'll take it for twenty million!"

As if afraid that Ye Chen would impulsively waste more.

Another wealthy businessman anxiously shouted.

Based on the weight of this material, at least several items could be made from it.

Twenty million, that would definitely be a huge profit.

"Twenty-four million, take it if you want it!"

Without letting the cutting master make another cut, Ye Chen said with a smile.

"This..."

The wealthy businessman paused, then quickly bent down to examine the dazzling jadeite with a professional flashlight and magnifying glass.

A moment later, without even bargaining, he said, "Okay, just twenty-four million, deal!"

Sixty thousand, exchanged for twenty-four million!

The entire venue boiled over again.

And the wealthy businessman who had given up competing with Ye Chen to the end was now beating his chest and regretting it immensely.

Zhang Jingshan and Li Changfeng, who had witnessed all of this, couldn't help but twitch their mouths.

They finally understood why Ye Chen had given up that Black Wusha stone that had increased tenfold in value earlier.

It was because Ye Chen didn't care about a mere million!

Thirteen thousand, cut out old blue water with floating flowers worth one million three hundred thousand.

Sixty thousand, cut out glowing glass jadeite worth twenty-four million.

Can this still be described with the word 'luck'?

Looking at the scene of Ye Chen transferring money with that wealthy businessman on a laptop.

Zhang Jingshan's mind went blank and he couldn't speak.

"Damn, what kind of dog shit luck did this gambler step on?"

Even Li Mu, who always considered himself a refined person and rarely swore, trembled violently and muttered to himself in disbelief.

An ordinary person being able to gamble and win on one stone was already incredibly lucky, but the other party had successively gambled and won on two stones that increased tenfold and fortyfold in value?

Does this guy have X-ray vision or something!

"Surname Li, three million, plus the one million from before, that's four million!"

After recovering, Zhang Jingshan also immediately spoke to Li Mu from a distance.

"It's not over yet, what are you so anxious about?" Li Mu shook his head, his expression already unnatural.

"Alright, then let's continue!" Zhang Jingshan said.

At this moment, Ye Chen, who had completed the transfer, also returned to Zhang Jingshan's side.

"Mr. Ye, I'm impressed, truly impressed!" Zhang Jingshan said in a low voice, his voice filled with uncontrollable admiration.

Thinking about how he worked hard and struggled to run that broken company, not even earning tens of millions a year.

And Ye Chen, the deposit receipt he took down for two hundred thousand at Jinlin Mansion, was transferred for four million in just three days.

Now, a sixty thousand stone, he cut out twenty-four million from it.

This, what kind of extraordinary and divine person is this?
