Chapter 128: Chapter 128: Selling Stones is Really Profitable
In fact, Lin Zhi didn’t get a penny...
However, after this experience, she developed quite an interest in the jade stone gambling business.
It turned out that this business could indeed make one rich overnight.
So, on a whim, Lin Zhi spent over ten thousand to let Zhong Qishan select some raw stones for her. After cutting them open, not a single one contained jade!
"How come none of them?" Lin Zhi felt a pang of heartache. Over ten thousand, just washed away!
Had she known, she would have spent that money on some good food and clothes instead.
Zhong Qishan guiltily said, "Didn’t I tell you? Most of the stones on the market don’t contain jade. Ninety percent are just ordinary stones. It’s really hard to find one that contains jade."
"Then why do you guys still buy them?" Lin Zhi retorted.
"We naturally go to specific places to buy, where the chances of cutting open a stone to find jade are much greater."
"Which specific places?"
"Just the under-the-table trade markets and auctions."
"When are we going?"
"Tomorrow morning."
"I’ll come too." Lin Zhi decided to broaden her horizons. Since she was here, she might as well explore; otherwise, it would be a wasted trip.
She wanted to join, and Ji Feifan didn’t object. After all, it was just like bringing along a little follower, no disruptions at all.
After spending over ten thousand and not unearthing a single piece of jade, Lin Zhi understandably went out and treated herself to a big meal. Fortunately, the food in Country D was full of exotic flavors and quite delicious.
After eating her fill, Lin Zhi returned to the hotel before it got dark but nearly bumped into someone at the entrance!
Lin Zhi quickly recognized the person’s big belly and hurriedly dodged aside, apologizing immediately, "Sorry, are you okay? I almost bumped into you."
Upon seeing who it was, Lin Zhi was surprised.
Wasn’t this the pregnant woman she saw last night at the restaurant?
Her and that vagrant’s appearances were quite distinctive, leaving a fresh memory in Lin Zhi’s mind.
Jiang Yihan, clutching her belly, also seemed a bit startled.
She said indifferently, "I’m fine, but be more careful when walking next time."
"Sorry about that, I really am very sorry." Lin Zhi continued to apologize, admitting her carelessness sincerely.
The consequences would have been unimaginable if she had really bumped into her.
Her belly was so big, nothing should happen at this time.
Jiang Yihan saw that her apology seemed sincere and didn’t pursue the matter further, leaving immediately.
Watching her leave, Lin Zhi thought to herself that she must be a tough woman.
Her expression and the way she dressed exuded a strong-woman vibe, not to mention her big belly yet still making money.
Lin Zhi admired such women, though being one must be tough.
But as long as effort is made, any hardship is worthwhile.
...
Early the next day, Lin Zhi followed Ji Feifan and the others to the private raw stone trading venue.
It was said that to participate in this trade event, one had to pay an entrance fee of one hundred thousand.
Lin Zhi was shocked. If she weren’t following Ji Feifan to sneak in, she wouldn’t have wanted to spend that amount of money.
Moreover, all attendees were wealthy; no poor people came, because if they did, they couldn’t afford to buy anything!
Zhong Qishan said that each stone inside started at one million.
Lin Zhi: "..."
Selling stones really made money; she wanted to dig up some stones to sell too.
People buying stones were really foolish to spend so much money, possibly just buying an ordinary stone.
That’s why it’s called stone gambling; if you lose the gamble, you pay; if you win, you earn.
Everything depended on experience and luck. Becoming wealthy or bankrupt happened in the blink of an eye.
