Chapter 465: Chapter 465: Turns out I am the Pig

Lin Dong pulled Qiao Bing along and followed Zhang Hao back into the Jade Store.

Qiao Bing was somewhat puzzled, thinking that with Lin Dong’s current identity and wealth, there seemed no need for him to be making this bit of petty cash, right?

Then why was he doing this?

Qiao Bing felt that there must be something fishy going on.

So she didn’t say anything more, but followed Lin Dong’s instructions and quietly followed him back to the Jade Store.

After the three of them came back in, Zhang Hao said to the shop owner:

"Boss, my classmate and his girlfriend want to try stone gambling in our shop."

Hearing this, the shop owner pretended to be concerned:

"Eh, my store is going to take a loss then. You guys are so lucky, you just cut a piece earlier and found jade."

"Moreover, what you bought was of the lower grade jade stones. If you buy the higher grade ones, costing tens of thousands or even several hundreds of thousands per piece, wouldn’t that bankrupt me..."

Deliberately following his cue, Lin Dong said, "As a business owner, how can you not afford to play along?"

"Sigh, fine. Even though I feel like I might take a loss, as Mister Lin said, how can I refuse customers when doing business?"

After saying that, the owner made a ’please’ gesture.

Lin Dong, holding onto Qiao Bing’s hand, took the lead towards the rough jadeite area.

As for the owner and Zhang Hao behind them, they exchanged another look, both seeing in each other’s eyes the smugness of a successful ’butcher board’ scam about to be executed.

Soon, the four of them arrived at the rough jadeite area.

The owner asked, "Which rough stone do you want to buy? Just pick!"

After speaking, the owner purposely stepped aside, giving them ample space.

At this moment, Zhang Hao began giving Lin Dong subtle hints, according to their secret signals from earlier.

The first signal he gave with a blink was for the number nine rough stone in the Wanyuan District, priced at ninety-eight thousand.

The second signal was for number eight in the same area, with a price tag of eighty-eight thousand.

The third blink was for number eight in the Over Hundred Thousand Yuan Area, that piece being marked at a hefty two hundred and fifty thousand.

With the fourth blink, it was number two in the same area, priced at two hundred thousand.

If Lin Dong and Qiao Bing were to buy these four stones as he indicated, they would need to spend over six hundred thousand.

But in reality, all four of these stones were worthless.

Just like other forms of gambling, the chances of winning money from the banker in stone gambling are extremely low.

Ten gambles, nine losses!

Just like this antique store, which stones would yield jade and which would not, they already knew.

The four stones that Zhang Hao secretly recommended to Lin Dong couldn’t produce any jadeite at all.

Lin Dong could see that with just one glance through his X-Ray vision!

"Lin Dong, hurry up and buy! You might turn several hundreds of thousands into five million!"

Zhang Hao ’prompted’ Lin Dong, urging him to buy quickly.

The owner’s face was expressionless, but inside, he was beaming with joy.

Business hadn’t been good lately, so catching a ’pig’ like Lin Dong and Qiao Bing for slaughter was like recouping a loss.

Making several hundreds of thousands was quite good too.

Both of them were inwardly laughing.

But just at this moment, Lin Dong began to select his rough stone.

What he chose was not at all the ones recommended by Zhang Hao.

Rather, he selected others!

Zhang Hao and the store owner’s expressions instantly stiffened.

Because they saw that the rough stone Lin Dong was choosing was one that the store thought to have a high potential for jade.

"Lin Dong, think it over," Zhang Hao quickly hinted at Lin Dong, giving him a ’tip’.

However, Lin Dong didn’t give him the time of day.

"I’ve made my choice, I’ll only buy this one!"

With his X-Ray vision activated, he could naturally tell which among the rough stones contained jade and which did not.

The one he had picked was indeed one of the rough stones in the store that could produce jade.

And not just any jade—the quality was good, the size was the best among all the rough stones.

"This..." the owner was almost panicking, "This rough stone, we... we..."

"What, you’re not selling it?" Lin Dong demanded.

As he spoke, he shouted loudly and instantly, that drew all the people in the store to gather around.

"What kind of rough jadeite store would refuse to sell rough stones?" Lin Dong scoffed.

With no choice, the owner couldn’t stop Lin Dong.

If he did, he’d lose his signboard. He could forget about continuing to run his business here.

Moreover, that rough stone was only rated as a high-grade rough stone, with a great chance of producing jade.

Exactly what kind of jade would come out, even they themselves didn’t know.

The only choice was to gamble.

"Okay!" The owner clenched his teeth and went ahead with the transaction.

This rough stone was worth a hundred and ten thousand!

Lin Dong hadn’t brought his bank card, so he had Qiao Bing pay for it.

Seeing this, Zhang Hao became even more convinced that Lin Dong was just a little white face being kept by Qiao Bing.

"Cut it!" After Qiao Bing paid, Lin Dong said to the stone-cutting master.

The master nodded and made the cut!

"Whoosh!"

With that cut, a dazzling green light burst forth instantly.

The spectators all exclaimed in awe.

"My God, it’s Imperial Green!"

"This Imperial Green is worth at least five million!"

"..."

Upon seeing this scene, the shop owner’s face turned from pale to green, then to red, getting uglier by the moment.

As for Zhang Hao, he was stunned.

"Not bad, looks like I am quite lucky. I actually managed to cut out Imperial Green."

Lin Dong shrugged his shoulders, then left with the jade and Qiao Bing.

The onlookers were all green with envy.

As for the owner, it was only now that he realized.

He himself was the pig!
