Chapter 866: Chapter 876: You’re Cheating! (Four Updates)
At this moment, Shan Hao truly dared not move. After all, those stones contained jadeite, but how did this guy manage to discover them?
This was just too bizarre.
So many stones, and he could pick out the ones with jadeite? How in the world did he do it?
But right now, Shan Hao was starting to panic because the total value of the jadeite from those stones was more than 200 million.
Oh my god!
All of Shan Hao’s possessions were tied up in this!
But now they were about to be taken by someone else!
"Bring out all the stones I chose!" Tang Zhong said to Shan Hao.
"Let’s not rush. There are so many stones; we should do it one by one!" Shan Hao replied.
"No need, let’s break them all at once!" Tang Zhong countered.
"I’d rather not!" Shan Hao kept refusing desperately.
The surrounding crowd was dumbfounded. What’s wrong with Shan Hao? Why was he acting like this?
The other party already asked for the stones, so why wasn’t he bringing them out? Altogether, those stones were worth around 20 million.
What a huge deal! Why wouldn’t he take it?
"Damn, is Shan Hao out of his mind? Wasn’t he gleefully picking out stones earlier? How come he’s backing out at the critical moment now?"
"I don’t know what he’s so afraid of. Does he really think every single stone will have jadeite? It’s obvious this guy doesn’t know a thing. If all those stones actually turned out to contain jadeite, it would mean his luck is against all odds. But clearly, such a possibility is almost nonexistent."
The surrounding gambling stone shop owners were murmuring amongst themselves.
They were all envious of Shan Hao for landing such a gutsy deal!
But they had no idea what was going on in Shan Hao’s mind. He was practically cursing his luck internally.
"What’s the matter? I’ve already bought these stones. Why aren’t you starting the breaking process?" Tang Zhong stared at Shan Hao, saying, "Didn’t you say earlier that birthdays are about honesty?"
"I... I’ll break them. I’ll do it right now!" Shan Hao had run out of excuses. This time, he’d have to swallow his pride. Otherwise, there’d be no way out for him.
He moved the stones that Tang Zhong had chosen onto the table.
Then he picked up a hammer.
He still wanted to argue a bit: "Here we gamble stones by charging the money before breaking them. So, brother, please follow the rules!"
These stones were worth over 20 million, and generally, no one bets on stones with that much money at stake.
"Fine, here’s my card!" Tang Zhong pulled out a card without hesitation.
He swiped it through the POS machine.
million was deducted in an instant.
Shan Hao was left speechless.
Anyone who could casually spend that kind of money wasn’t someone to mess with. This time, he was truly screwed. Soon, a vicious glint flickered in his eyes.
At that moment, all eyes were on him. The entire gambling stone market fell silent.
Both the owners and the customers were witnessing a deal of this magnitude for the first time. To be honest, a sense of awe stirred within them.
But if even a single piece of jadeite came out of those stones, it would already be a remarkable result.
Everyone watched as Shan Hao gripped the hammer and prepared to smash the first stone. He could hardly bear to do it.
"Get on with it!" someone nearby urged.
"What’s there to hesitate about? You’re the boss of a gambling stone shop! Being indecisive is a real problem!"
With everyone egging him on, Shan Hao finally brought the hammer down with a loud crash.
With a resounding thud, the first stone was broken open.
A flash of green light emerged from inside.
The surrounding onlookers were wide-eyed. "Oh my god, is that jadeite? Did he just uncover another jadeite?"
"Yeah, this is absolutely terrifying!"
Each person was in awe.
This was the second piece of jadeite already. The guy’s luck was truly out of this world.
As Shan Hao stared at it, his heart ached as though needles were piercing it.
"Next!" Tang Zhong commanded coldly.
The crowd around them eagerly widened their eyes again, itching to see what would happen next.
With extreme reluctance, Shan Hao picked up the hammer, and with a bang, the next stone was shattered open.
The same green light appeared.
"Oh my god!"
"Holy crap! Another jadeite!"
The crowd was utterly stunned.
Shan Hao’s heart hurt even more as he moved to the third stone. There were five stones in total, and two had already produced jadeite.
But soon, the onlookers couldn’t even find words to express their shock. One after the other, the remaining stones were broken open, and still, green light shone. This meant every single one contained jadeite.
There was no longer any chatter; instead, only silent astonishment. They couldn’t believe it—this was the first time anyone had gambled on stones with such unbelievable results.
Was this luck?
No, this was a miracle.
If this story spread, it would shake the entire Yun City.
The headlines would be about a young man in the gambling stone market striking jadeite from multiple stones, leaving the whole city in awe.
Everyone around was astounded.
And Shan Hao’s heart was bleeding!
Now, only the final large stone remained.
Most of the people present believed that this stone wouldn’t contain jadeite. It didn’t even look like it had the slightest chance of harboring any.
However, at this point, whether or not the last stone contained jadeite no longer mattered to the crowd. The previous stones had already turned a massive profit.
Close to over 100 million by now.
This young man’s gamble on stones was anything but in vain.
By now, Shan Hao was holding the hammer and bringing it over the last large stone. Its rough surface didn’t remotely resemble that of a stone with jadeite inside.
Yet it still drew everyone’s gaze.
"Come on, Boss Shan, break it open!"
"Yeah, do it already!"
Tang Zhong narrowed his eyes.
Shan Hao didn’t dare. This stone was worth 100 million; his hand holding the hammer was trembling uncontrollably.
This stone couldn’t be lost.
"I won’t sell this stone!" Shan Hao suddenly tossed the hammer aside and clung to the stone defensively.
Money had driven him to shamelessness. This was 100 million! How could he just hand it over?
After all, the other party was just a young man here to gamble on stones. Compared to someone experienced like him, there was no match.
After all, this was Yun City. Worst case, he’d just leave the gambling stone business.
When Shan Hao said this, everyone around froze.
Since when did gambling stone sellers act like this?
"Boss Shan, what’s the meaning of this?"
"In the gambling stone business, there’s no such thing as this. When a customer picks a stone from your stall, you have to sell it to them. That’s the rule! What you’re doing is against the rules!"
Indeed, in the gambling stone market, any stone set out at your stall could be bought and chosen by the customers.
Now, Shan Hao’s behavior was clearly a violation.
Shan Hao’s brow furrowed, but he decided to go all in on his shamelessness. He immediately pointed at Tang Zhong and shouted, "Kid, you’re cheating... Coming to my gambling stone shop to scam me? You’ve got a death wish!"
