Chapter 865: Chapter 875: Luck So Good It Defies the Heavens! (Three More)

The burly boss said that because Tang Zhong won his stone, making him very unhappy. If he didn’t get some money back from Tang Zhong, he’d feel downright miserable.

Unexpectedly, Tang Zhong agreed, which was good news for him.

The people from the surrounding stone gambling shops, watching this scene, were all astonished. One had to admit, Tang Zhong’s luck was truly incredible.

But seeing the burly boss suggest going another round, and Tang Zhong agreeing again, they all shook their heads helplessly. This guy was really foolish—opening the stone and leaving should’ve been the end of it, why continue?

If nothing unexpected happened, the ten-million-dollar stone he just cracked open would soon be completely gone.

This was the wisdom of stone gamblers: as soon as you win, walk away immediately. If you stay any longer, you’ll lose everything—even your underwear.

At this moment, the burly boss wasn’t about to let Tang Zhong walk away with the money just like that. He said, "Brother, which one are you eyeing? I’ll keep cracking for you!"

The burly boss was cunning. He reached again toward the box that was guaranteed to contain only useless stones.

"I want stones from a different box!" Tang Zhong said.

The burly boss’s expression darkened slightly, but he smiled and said, "The two boxes are the same. Doing business, it’s all about integrity!"

"I just prefer the stones from the other box!" Tang Zhong replied.

"Alright..." The burly boss was getting irritated now. His name was Shan Hao. He was from the Yun City border and had come over from Gong Country. He’d been in the stone gambling business here for years, but this was the first time he’d encountered someone like this.

He was baffled. What was with this guy’s insistence on picking stones from the other box?

"Then which stone do you want from there?" Shan Hao asked.

"I want that big one!" Tang Zhong pointed at one of the largest stones in the box.

That stone, sitting at a distance, was incredibly dull in color, with a very rough surface.

The onlookers immediately showed disdain. A stone like that? There was no way it contained jade. Clearly, the first lucky stone he found had been sheer dumb luck.

The surrounding stone gambling shop owners laughed one after another. The ten million he’d just won was about to go down the drain.

But while they didn’t notice, cold sweat had begun forming on Shan Hao’s forehead. Inside, it felt like a thousand wild horses were running through his mind. Because this stone... it did contain jade. And not a small piece either—it was enormous.

This stone was the pride of his shop, their treasure. Normally, it was impossible for anyone to tell what was inside just by looking at it. The exterior gave zero clues that it could contain jade.

More importantly, this jade’s value was a staggering one hundred million.

He absolutely could not afford to open this stone.

Once it was opened, it was game over.

Shan Hao stared at Tang Zhong. This guy definitely didn’t know anything, right? He must’ve picked this stone purely by chance. Damn it, but how could his luck be this good?

"You... you’re really sure about this stone? It’s huge. The purchase price for it alone is ten million!"

Shan Hao decided to raise the price to intimidate him.

"This stone looks good. If there’s jade inside, I’ll really hit the jackpot. Even the small stone just now had jade worth ten million—this big one must be worth at least a hundred million!" Tang Zhong said.

Anyone who heard his words could tell they were spoken by a complete amateur. Experts had already concluded that a stone like this couldn’t possibly contain jade—inside, it would be solid rock, guaranteed.

The surrounding stone gambling shop owners couldn’t help but shake their heads. He’d just won ten million, but now he was about to lose it all. Such a shame.

Weiwei was anxious. She didn’t want Tang Zhong to buy this stone. She didn’t understand much about stone gambling, but having spent so much time in this place, even she knew a stone like this couldn’t possibly contain jade.

If he bought this one, any profits from the earlier gamble would be gone—several million wiped out.

"Don’t buy it. This stone won’t have anything!" Weiwei said.

The surrounding stone gamblers all kept silent, just waiting to watch Tang Zhong make a fool of himself. They hadn’t been able to buy jade themselves, so they certainly didn’t want Tang Zhong to succeed either. What they wanted most now was to see the stone cracked open, revealing nothing but rock, and then watch Tang Zhong’s reaction.

At this moment, Shan Hao found it hard to believe what was happening. He knew the stone contained jade. Was he really going to have to open it? Yet if he didn’t, everything would fall apart. But if he did open it, the jade inside—worth a hundred million—would end up in this guy’s hands, and the thought of it made his heart ache.

"Wait!"

A loud voice interrupted the scene—Tang Zhong had shouted.

Everyone immediately turned their attention toward him.

Was he regretting his decision?

The surrounding stone gambling shop owners now had to give Tang Zhong a bit more credit. To be able to call things off at such a moment took remarkable composure. The smartest move now was to take the money and leave.

Weiwei felt relieved too. It seemed her commission was about to land in her hands, and a hefty one at that.

What they didn’t realize was that Shan Hao himself had just broken into a sweat of relief. He was ecstatic—thank goodness Tang Zhong had called it off. If the stone had been cracked, that hundred-million jade would’ve been gone.

"This is the right move. I told you from the beginning that this stone couldn’t possibly contain jade!" Shan Hao said, hurriedly putting the stone back into the box.

No matter what, this stone could never be placed out in the open again.

"No... I still want that stone. I just think opening one stone at a time is too much trouble. I’ll buy several all at once—it’ll be more convenient for you to open them that way!" Tang Zhong said nonchalantly.

"What?"

In an instant, the entire crowd was dumbfounded. Nobody could’ve predicted this turn of events.

So he wasn’t giving up on the stone? He thought just buying one wasn’t enough?

Unbelievable!

Foolish!

Not a single person thought Tang Zhong wasn’t being utterly foolish.

Meanwhile, Shan Hao’s face turned pale on the spot, looking absolutely miserable.

"This might not be ideal..." Shan Hao said.

He truly didn’t want to let such a valuable piece of jade slip away.

"What’s wrong with it? I’ve got plenty of money!" Tang Zhong said.

Then, pointing at a few stones in the box, he said, "That one... and that one. Bring out all those as well!"

Tang Zhong’s gaze swept across the box, and he pointed out every single stone that contained jade, picking them all out.

The bystanders watching Tang Zhong arbitrarily selecting stones laughed even harder. How could anyone expect to find jade by picking stones at random? It was obvious that this guy had gotten lucky with his first stone and was now acting recklessly.

What they didn’t know was that Shan Hao’s face had already turned as dark as it possibly could. Every single stone Tang Zhong pointed to contained jade, while the ones with none weren’t touched at all. What... what the hell was going on? This wasn’t just good luck anymore. This guy was defying the heavens!
