Chapter 123: Chapter 123: Are You Sure I’m Bound to Lose?

"Alright, since you’re giving me money, I won’t be polite." Hearing Ye Feng’s words, Liu Qingsong instantly laughed and agreed without hesitation.

In his eyes, these worthless stones Ye Feng bought can’t possibly be better than his, right? It’s practically giving him money, and it’s a whole thirty million.

At the same time, he skeptically looked at Ye Feng and Liu Xue, mockingly laughing, "But are you sure you can come up with thirty million? I doubt you have the money."

"Never mind, for the sake of being part of the Liu Family once, I’ll believe you just this once."

After his arrogance, Liu Qingsong selected the best-performing raw stone from his collection.

Ye Feng glanced at it; it was indeed the best-performing stone, costing Liu Qingsong nearly ten million at a high price.

However, the raw stone inside would at most be worth about eight million, still a bloody loss.

So Ye Feng casually picked a raw stone, ready to compete with Liu Qingsong.

In Ye Feng’s view, casually choosing a piece from his raw stones would be much better than Liu Qingsong’s, so no need to choose carefully.

"You’re comparing that worthless stone with mine? Truly overestimating yourself." Seeing Ye Feng’s actions, Liu Qingsong sneered and took his raw stone for processing.

Seeing this, many people gathered around, eager to see the excitement.

"Go take a look, it seems like there’s someone betting over there, with a wager of thirty million."

"Is there something that thrilling? Anyway, I’m free, let’s go check it out."

With someone’s guidance, countless people gathered around.

Initially, they planned to leave after participating in the silent auction, but seeing some excitement, they naturally didn’t want to leave.

Seeing so many people come, Liu Qingsong smiled complacently.

In his eyes, the more people, the greater Ye Feng’s embarrassment would be, so he was very pleased.

"No way? I thought it was going to be an even match! Didn’t expect it to be a crushing scenario?"

"Exactly, isn’t it? This kid is really a fool, isn’t he? Using such a poorly performing raw stone to bet against someone with an excellent piece? Isn’t this just giving money away?"

"I know, the bid price for that guy’s raw stone was ten million, while this guy’s raw stone only cost over three million? They’re not even in the same league, it’s a no-brainer."

"I can’t understand, isn’t this just giving money to the other side?"

....

Indeed, after seeing both people’s raw stones, the onlookers didn’t favor Ye Feng, thinking Ye Feng was simply giving money to Liu Qingsong.

However, only Liu Xue clung to Ye Feng with immense trust in her heart.

Moreover, even if they lost, in Liu Xue’s opinion, it wouldn’t matter, because she had already earned enough at this public auction, procured jadeite worth fifty billion from a mere over two hundred million.

Plus, considering the ones bought today, it might be even more terrifying.

So, a mere thirty million meant nothing to Liu Xue at this point, as if she were feeding a dog.

"I’ll go first!" Hearing the crowd’s words, Liu Qingsong smiled proudly, handing the raw stone to the master for processing.

As the raw stone was fixed, the machine began cutting.

As one side was cut open, Liu Qingsong jumped up in elation, unable to contain his joy.

Indeed, the first cut revealed green, signaling a big gain ahead.

"Wow! That’s amazing luck, isn’t it? Could the whole thing be jadeite?"

"To see green on the first cut, this is just against the odds."

"And judging by the color and quality, the jadeite doesn’t seem bad! This piece is going to be a big profit."

Seeing the first cut reveal a gain, the onlookers were shocked, with congratulatory expressions directed at Liu Qingsong.

And Liu Qingsong, immensely pleased, kept thanking everyone while provocatively looking at Ye Feng, "I’ve already gained big, what about you? Let’s see how you’ll handle it later."

Along with provocations, Liu Qingsong urged the master to cut a second slice.

In the face of Liu Qingsong’s provocations, Ye Feng remained very calm; didn’t he already know about the situation inside?

"This guy’s luck is unbelievably good?" Liu Xue, however, said a bit exasperatedly.

"Don’t worry! He won’t win." Ye Feng confidently smiled, not taking Liu Qingsong seriously at all.

Sure enough, as the second cut was made, Liu Qingsong’s expression shifted.

Because upon the second cut, it was an area of white inside, indicating a collapse.

"How can this be?" Seeing this, Liu Qingsong couldn’t accept it, hurriedly checking with a flashlight.

"Unexpected! Why didn’t the second cut perform?" Such a shame."

"Indeed, but there’s still a chance, maybe the next cut will yield gains."

"Such a great start, a pity!"

"Yes, indeed!"

Seeing the second cut fail, the onlookers shook their heads helplessly, sighing loudly.

Of course, although the second cut collapsed, it didn’t necessarily mean it was a total loss, chances still remained.

"Keep cutting for me! This time from the middle." So, amidst his despair, Liu Qingsong continued to signal.

Therefore, based on Liu Qingsong’s signal, the master made a straight cut down the middle.

Initially, Liu Qingsong hoped that this cut would bring some improvement.

Yet, it resulted in a big collapse again, indicating no jadeite was on the other half.

"Continue! Give it another cut in the middle." Seeing this, Liu Qingsong angrily continued signaling.

Thus, the master made another cut, again from the middle.

After this cut, the part with green only had about one-fifth of the whole raw stone left.

However, fortunately, this cut revealed green.

Seeing the green finally emerge, Liu Qingsong breathed a sigh of relief.

Although this raw stone was a loss, in Liu Qingsong’s eyes, as long as he could extract jadeite from the raw stone, he would surely win and pocket thirty million.

With this thirty million, even if this raw stone incurred a few hundred thousand losses, what would it matter?

Having a specific size now, the process became much simpler, resulting in Liu Qingsong extracting a piece of jadeite, small in size but with decent quality and water content.

"Haha! I extracted jadeite." Liu Qingsong proudly boasted, holding the jadeite.

Seeing the jadeite in Liu Qingsong’s hand, the crowd shook their heads and sighed.

"What a shame, if it maintained the first cut’s momentum, it could’ve been worth several million at least."

"Still not bad, even within the icy category, quite decent, probably seven to eight hundred thousand worth."

"This raw stone was bought for ten million, and now, even worth seven or eight hundred thousand, it’s a bloody loss."

"But that’s still better than cutting out nothing! Plus, since it’s a bet, as long as he wins, he gets to pocket thirty million, doesn’t that make up for this loss?"

"True enough...."

Though the jadeite wasn’t anything special, it was still worth seven to eight hundred thousand, so these people believed Ye Feng was bound to lose.

In their view, Ye Feng’s raw piece wouldn’t yield any jadeite at all.

Hearing their words, Ye Feng smiled and, carrying his raw stone, walked over. The result should surprise these people, right?
