Chapter 284: Chapter 284: Where do you want to go

"What?"

"Only 800,000? I think you’re dreaming. At the previous auction in the provincial city, a Jade Token made from Emperor Jade was sold for 2 million, and the material wasn’t as good as this. Are you trying to cheat us?"

"Yes, I’ll offer 2 million!"

"If it can be sold, you can consider me. I’ll offer 2.8 million!"

"3 million!"

The gallery instantly turned into an auction site, with all the jade merchants who originally came for gambling blushing and necks thick with excitement.

The cutting master washed the jade clean with some water. Looking at the glossy green raw stone, the cutting master carefully handed it to Chen Dashan with both hands, saying, "Young man, your luck is really good!"

"I haven’t seen such good jade material in decades. I never expected that the best jade material would be hidden in the gallery. If it weren’t for you, this piece of Emperor Jade would have been buried forever."

Although Chen Dashan didn’t understand jade,

he felt a subtle energy flowing in his palm the moment he held it. This must be something good.

"If you intend to sell it, our gallery is willing to buy it back above market price." The cutting master spoke.

Chen Dashan smiled, "No need, I plan to use this jade to make jewelry for my family. I’m not planning to sell it."

"What?"

With that statement, the crowd instantly quieted down. Everyone’s eyes turned green as they stared at the raw stone in Chen Dashan’s hand. Just a little processing, whether a pendant, ring, or earring, would be a collection-worthy item and could be the treasure of a shop.

Making jewelry for his family— was Chen Dashan too extravagant?

"Does your gallery have a place to process this?" Chen Dashan inquired.

The cutting master quickly replied, "Yes, there’s a processing fee, but since you bought the raw stone from the gallery, we’ll waive the fee."

Giving away a piece of top-quality Emperor Jade for free while not charging for processing.

The cutting master smiled wryly.

Who would have thought that spending 500,000 could get the best Emperor Jade? Even if it was resold for ten times, every major jeweler in Tanzhou City would be scrambling to pay. These days, there are more rich people, but good things are becoming rarer; this is something you can’t buy even if you have money.

"Dashan, there’s no need to make one for me. Make one for yourself to wear." Zhou Hui blushed as she spoke; today’s events had greatly shocked her and made her admire Chen Dashan even more.

A small stone worth millions, made into jewelry for oneself—how extravagant could it be?

Wu Hongling and Qi Shuzhu looked at Zhou Hui with envy. Chen Dashan looked at them and said, "Since everyone is here today, I think making four Jade Pendants from this material is more than enough. Everyone will get one, as a gift from me."

After speaking, Chen Dashan handed the jade to Tao Lingbo, asking her to select the designs later with others.

Amid everyone’s discussion, Chen Dashan noticed Xu Feng trying to sneak away. Chen Dashan loudly called, "Xu Feng, Young Master Xu, where are you going?"

Xu Feng paused mid-step.

He straightened slightly, turned, and with an awkward smile, said to Chen Dashan, "I haven’t congratulated you yet. I have some urgent matters to attend to, so I’ll be leaving now. Let’s meet another day."

With that, Xu Feng turned to leave, and Tao Lingbo loudly asked, "Xu Feng, does your bet still count?"

"A bet is a bet; are you trying to cheat?"

Xu Feng’s face turned blue, then purple.

"Hahaha... Didn’t he say he would eat the stone? Now he’s in trouble!"

Someone laughed and spoke up.

The crowd began to discuss heatedly: "A bet is a bet; it seems Xu Feng can’t afford to lose!"

"He was so fierce just now. Isn’t he the so-called best appraiser in Tanzhou City? I guess not!"

"So many stones—if he really eats them, won’t it be fatal?"

Xu Feng’s face turned red; his emotions got out of control, making his facial muscles twitch uncontrollably, and the corner of his mouth kept twitching. He looked up at Chen Dashan and said, "Chen Dashan, let’s settle this. From now on, we’ll stay out of each other’s ways. If you continue to push, you’ll regret it!"

He can’t afford to lose and still threatens.

If it were himself who lost, Xu Feng would undoubtedly humiliate him and order him to stay away from Tao Lingbo.

How could it be that if he loses, he can act as if nothing happened and instead threaten him, just because Xu Feng thinks Chen Dashan is weak and easy to bully?

"There’s no need to meet next time." Chen Dashan sneered, looking at Xu Feng mockingly, "With so many stones, whether you can live until tomorrow is unknown."

"You..."

Furious, Xu Feng’s face turned iron-blue. He glanced at the sharp stones on the ground, gritted his teeth, and fled in disgrace.

"Hahaha..."

"The best appraiser in Tanzhou City might need a replacement!"

"Xu Feng’s escape was quite swift too!"

The crowd roared with laughter. Xu Feng’s back felt like it was being pricked by needles. Listening to everyone’s mockery made him hate Chen Dashan even more.

After Xu Feng left, Chen Dashan took the women to the processing hall.

The merchants who originally didn’t intend to buy, upon seeing Chen Dashan’s green jade, began to carefully inspect each raw stone in the gallery. Even the previously unnoticed raw stones in corners and storage rooms were now being bought.

A thin, short old man, frowning, looked at Chen Dashan’s back and instructed his subordinate, "Make arrangements; I want to meet this Chen Dashan."

"Yes!"

Jade processing required a few hours.

Chen Dashan and his companions rested at a nearby hotel. Zhou Hui and Wu Hongling shared a room; Tao Lingbo and Qi Shuzhu shared another. After last night’s intense activity with Tao Lingbo, her thighs were still a bit strained. At this moment, Chen Dashan was in Tao Lingbo’s room, giving her a massage.

Inside the room, Qi Shuzhu was taking a shower in the bathroom.

Tao Lingbo had already changed into a robe, leisurely lying on the large bed, her neckline loose, revealing half of her rounded bosom, which wobbled. Her skin was as white as milk, and Chen Dashan seemed to smell a milky scent.

Chen Dashan supported Tao Lingbo’s heel with one hand, slightly lifting her leg, and gently kneading the underside of her thigh with the other.

"Ah... so comfortable..."

Tao Lingbo arched her neck, her voice filled with satisfaction and pleasure, continuously moaning, "Mmm... ah, be gentle, don’t use too much force!"

"Ah ah... slower, slower!"

As Chen Dashan’s hand movements accelerated, Tao Lingbo’s bosom wobbled up and down.

Her mouth emitted more suggestive moans, making Chen Dashan aroused. Touching her smooth, white thigh, Chen Dashan’s hand moved upwards, and Tao Lingbo, with flirtatious eyes and a flushed face, said, "Sister Shuzhu is still in the shower!"

"It’s okay; she can’t see it." Chen Dashan moved closer, his hand slipping into her panties, feeling a slippery bud. The sticky sensation on his fingers made Chen Dashan even more excited. Tao Lingbo shyly lowered her head, pressing her thighs tighter together.
