105: You'd rather risk your life than get a bargain?
The stone cutting master was already numb.
He had been cutting stones for so many years.
This was the first time he had encountered something like this.
Every single piece increased in value!
Unprecedented, a first!
Today, he set a new record.
In 20 years of work.
His previous highest record was five consecutive profitable cuts.
Currently.
He had nine consecutive profitable cuts!
What kind of concept was this?
Ninety percent!
At least a ninety percent chance of a profitable gamble!
He had never heard of it.
Which Stone Gambling Master could achieve this level of success rate?
He heard that the renowned Master Divine Eye.
Only had a thirty percent chance.
And was already a prominent figure in the stone gambling world.
Ninety percent chance.
How was this possible?
Today, for the stone cutting master and the surrounding jade merchants.
Was destined to be a crazy day.
Chen Yang's five raw stones.
Once again refreshed their understanding.
The first piece was worth 2.1 million.
The second piece was worth 5.5 million.
The third piece was worth 3.6 million.
The fourth piece was worth 12 million.
The fifth piece was worth 45 million.
Chen Yang only spent 450,000.
But in return, he got jade raw stones with a total value of 68.2 million.
Not to mention the stunned women.
The jade merchants had already gone crazy!
For the best raw stone.
Two bosses fought with red eyes, directly resorting to fists.
Beating each other black and blue.
The winner obtained the final right to purchase.
Chen Yang made a huge profit of 68.2 million.
When Chen Yang left the stone cutting shop with the women.
His name quickly spread throughout Caiyun City's stone gambling world.
"Little Jade God!"
Chen Yang became famous in one battle!
[Ding!]
[Gained 10 points, current cumulative points: 260 points, keep up the good work!]
The system points arrived late.
According to the prompt, it was for helping Su Youlan solve a problem.
The 10 points gained.
At this stage.
The points were still too few.
He had to accumulate more, for unforeseen needs.
Jade Street.
The later it got, the livelier it became.
Chen Yang had just made a fortune, but was not yet satisfied.
He was still thinking about that super bargain.
He couldn't help but ask Lilac.
Lilac instantly understood.
"You still want to make a killing?"
Chen Yang chuckled.
Buying the Moon Bay Grand Hotel required 500 million.
He only had 170 million now, so he had to continue making money.
"Alright, I'll take you to a secret location, it's the largest stone gambling trading place besides the Stone Gambling Convention."
Chen Yang became excited.
This was the place he was looking for.
Led by Lilac, everyone continued on their way.
Chen Yang walked in the middle.
A drunk man, going against the flow of people, stumbled into their group.
Chen Yang was afraid he would bump into the ladies, so he prepared to block him.
Suddenly.
A cold light flashed.
A sharp dagger stabbed towards his chest.
Chen Yang's scalp tingled.
He instantly struck out with a palm, hitting the opponent's wrist.
The drunk man was very powerful.
He immediately changed his move.
The dagger slashed towards Chen Yang's wrist.
Chen Yang changed his palm to a grab.
With a move of "Dragon Capturing and Tiger Binding."
He flung the opponent three steps away.
After a brief exchange.
Chen Yang had already probed.
This person's combat power should also be that of an Intermediate War General.
And he was a master specializing in assassination.
Upon closer inspection.
The drunk man was actually a Foreigner.
The next second.
He decisively pulled out a silenced pistol.
Aiming it at Chen Yang's chest.
Chen Yang's body stiffened.
Subconsciously, he prepared to use Heaven-Treading Steps to dodge.
Then he remembered that Liu Sisi was right behind him.
He immediately dismissed the thought.
He didn't dare to move.
The drunk man revealed a sinister smile.
Everything was within his calculations.
He pulled the trigger.
Bang!
A sturdy young man rushed over from the side.
And tackled the drunk man.
The bullet went astray.
The pistol flew about ten feet away.
The two men grappled together.
The sturdy young man was quite formidable.
He should have the strength of a Junior War General.
Chen Yang immediately joined the fray.
Taking advantage of the drunk man's distraction.
He launched a sneak attack from behind.
With a palm that could pierce stone.
He directly shattered his shoulder blade.
Then he used Dragon Capturing and Tiger Binding to subdue him.
The sturdy young man's clothes were torn, and he had sustained serious injuries.
Chen Yang was very grateful.
"Little brother, thank you!"
The sturdy young man seemed a bit dull.
"You're welcome!"
He said a sentence, then quickly left.
Leaving Chen Yang quite surprised.
Before he had a chance to properly thank him for saving his life.
He ran off?
"Are you alright?"
Liu Sisi, Lilac, and the other women rushed over, asking with concern.
Chen Yang shook his head.
"I'm fine."
He immediately pulled out his phone and called Black Tiger.
"Brother Hu, are you still in Caiyun City?"
"I am."
Black Tiger was concise, he probably hadn't finished his work yet.
Chen Yang directly said:
"I was just attacked, it was a Foreigner, I suspect Fang Haotian sent him."
Black Tiger was startled.
The Everlasting Pharmaceutical case was investigating the Ding Family.
Unfortunately, there was insufficient evidence.
He hadn't expected.
A ready-made clue to be delivered immediately.
"Wait for me, I'll be right there."
Soon.
Black Tiger brought a few team members.
And took the drunk man away.
Without alarming the local police station.
Lilac was still shaken.
"Should we go back? It's too dangerous here."
Chen Yang shook his head in disagreement.
"No, we said we'd go, why change our minds now?"
Lilac looked at him in surprise.
"You still want to go? Do you want money more than your life?"
Chen Yang smiled.
"That was just an accident."
"We can't just stop living because of an accident, can we?"
"The money that should be earned, still has to be earned!"
Lilac was completely defeated.
She could only lead everyone to continue forward.
Passing through a secluded alley.
Everyone entered a large courtyard.
Inside, it was brightly lit and bustling with people.
As if they had entered another world.
Raw stones were everywhere.
At least several hundred of them.
Many people came to look at the stones.
Even.
Chen Yang even saw an old acquaintance.
Kameda Shoji.
That's right.
He was the stone gambling master who helped Ding Qiufeng try to defeat Lilac.
Master Divine Eye.
Currently using the alias: Tian Shoji.
No one knew he was one of the little devils.
And no one knew his true purpose in approaching the Ding Family.
Lilac's face also darkened.
She saw her competitor.
Ding Qiufeng.
"Oh, my dear Sister Lilac, you've come to play too!"
"I thought you knew you were doomed to lose tomorrow and were crying into your pillow!"
Ding Qiufeng was tall and thin.
As if a gust of wind could blow him away.
But his eyes were sharp, with a hint of malice.
Lilac sneered.
"Ding Qiufeng, don't get too smug too soon!"
"Do you think with Master Divine Eye assisting you, you're guaranteed to win?"
Ding Qiufeng stood proudly.
"Isn't that so?"
Lilac's tone was disdainful.
"You have a master assisting you, and I also have an expert helping me."
"Who knows who will win?"
Ding Qiufeng smiled.
"Let's not argue with words. Is your mysterious expert more powerful, or is my Master Divine Eye more brilliant?"
"How about we have a live competition?"
Lilac sneered.
"How do we compete?"
Ding Qiufeng glanced at Master Divine Eye.
Seeing Kameda Shoji's confident expression.
He felt reassured.
"The two experts will select stones on the spot."
"Whoever selects the stone with better value wins."
Lilac shook her head.
"That's not fair, it should be whoever selects the stone with the greatest profit wins."
This was to prevent cheating.
By directly buying the most expensive raw stone on site.
Often, those with high prices.
Also had a relatively higher chance of producing jade.
Ding Qiufeng smiled.
"Alright, but since it's a competition, there should be a prize."
"I suggest 100 million, what do you think?"
Lilac secretly groaned.
So, this was Ding Qiufeng's plan.
His funds were already more substantial than hers.
If she lost 100 million tonight.
She would have even less confidence in tomorrow's bidding.
Her chances of winning would be even smaller.
Seeing Lilac hesitate.
Ding Qiufeng laughed heartily.
"What? Scared?"
"If you don't dare to gamble, then don't compete!"
"You don't even need to participate in tomorrow's stone gambling bidding."
Lilac's face was very unpleasant.
Her small chest heaved with anger.
Chen Yang suddenly stepped forward.
"I accept this challenge."
Ding Qiufeng was a little surprised.
Why wasn't this guy listening to orders?
How dare he make such a big decision on his own?
He sneered disdainfully.
"Kid, a 100 million wager, do you even have it?"
