Chapter 511: Chapter 511: Money Can Do Anything

"Damn, 150,000? Why don’t you go rob someone!"

"Fatty Zhou, don’t scam people! Or you may have a son with no balls!"

"Young man, he’s asking for the moon, don’t fall for it!"

"Based on my many years of experience, even if this stone produces jade, it will be the lowest quality Bean-Type Jade, not worth much!"

"I think it’s just a piece of waste stone! Not worth a dime!"

...

When the crowd heard the fat man quote a price of 150,000, they immediately became agitated; some mocked the fat man, while others advised Fang Bai not to be duped.

"Brother, how come you’re here?"

Right then, Su Yifei and Qin Shan squeezed through the crowd, followed by two carts carrying raw stones. Each cart had over a dozen stones, and it seemed they were planning to have them resolved.

"I took a fancy to a stone and am planning to buy it."

Fang Bai casually said as he pointed at the watermelon-shaped raw stone.

"This stone..."

Qin Shan walked up to the watermelon-shaped raw stone, touched it, looked it over, and after a moment shook his head and said to Fang Bai, "Little brother, you’re mistaken, this stone is unlikely to contain jade!"

Fang Bai replied, "I really like its shape; I’m buying it to use as a landscape stone at home!"

Su Yifei also examined the stone and felt Qin Shan made sense; it was unlikely to contain jade. He said, "If you want a landscape stone, I’ll give you a bunch later, all prettier than this one!"

Fang Bai shook his head and said, "I’ll buy this one!"

Su Yifei smiled wryly, "Different strokes for different folks. If you want to buy it, go ahead! How much is this stone?"

"Fatty Zhou is pricing it at 150,000! He’s trying to rip off this young man!"

Before Fang Bai could respond, someone nearby had already spoken out loud.

The fat man’s face turned red as he jumped about and shouted, "Who’s scamming him? He told me to quote any price! You all heard it just now, didn’t you?"

Su Yifei glared at the fat man and said coldly, "Big brother, be kind and don’t be too greedy! Honestly, how much did you buy this raw stone for? We’ll give you double!"

He then said to Fang Bai, "Brother, I know you’re not short of money, but spending 150,000 on a piece of waste stone... you’re throwing your wealth away!"

Fang Bai saw everyone around him trying to persuade him and couldn’t help but chuckle. He knew they were all ordinary people, unaware of the treasure hidden within this raw stone.

For Fang Bai, that treasure was truly priceless.

"Big brother, 150,000; I’ll take this raw stone! Do you want cash or a mobile transfer?"

Fang Bai said, ignoring the attempts of Su Yifei, Qin Shan, and others to dissuade him as he spoke to the fat man.

"Mobile transfer will do!"

"Alright. What’s your account number?"

The fat man gave Fang Bai his account number, and Fang Bai promptly took out his phone and transferred 150,000 from his account.

The fat man checked his account and seeing the 150,000 had arrived, he couldn’t help feeling secretly delighted. Worried that Fang Bai might change his mind, he pointed at the watermelon-shaped raw stone, said "It’s yours now," and swiftly squeezed out of the crowd to slip away.

"Spending 150,000 on a piece of waste stone... brother, you’ve truly defined what it means to be ’rich and capricious’ with your very own actions!"

Su Yifei saw Fang Bai insist on buying that original stone despite his advice and couldn’t help feeling helpless. However, he immediately remembered that Fang Bai was one of the major shareholders of "Beauty Group," and that 150,000 was just a drop in the bucket for him. Spending it was nothing at all.

Qin Shan was also sighing. However, he knew that with Fang Bai’s abilities, he could earn back the 150,000 spent in minutes.

Many onlookers around them also sighed and shook their heads, looking at Fang Bai as if he were a fool.

Some jade enthusiasts who were preparing to solve stones looked at the departing chubby man with envy. Seeing Fang Bai treasuring that watermelon-shaped original stone, they eagerly approached him with their own stones in hand, asking if he wanted to buy theirs.

"These guys, they all see Fang Bai as an easy mark!"

"I think he really is an easy mark!"

Su Yifei and Qin Shan looked at each other, shook their heads, and couldn’t help but smile bitterly.

The two had just spent a high price to buy over ten original stones each and brought them to the Stone-Solving Yard, planning to have the Stone-Solving Master solve them on the spot. The jade enthusiasts who had been crowding around Fang Bai scattered when they saw there was excitement to watch.

Taking advantage of the lack of attention on himself, Fang Bai quickly tossed the watermelon-shaped original stone into his left hand’s Spatial Ring.

Two stone-solving machines started at the same time, and the original stones brought over by Qin Shan and Su Yifei were being solved one after another.

Qin Shan lived up to his reputation as a jade connoisseur, with discerning eyes and rich experience. Most of the dozen or so original stones he had bought turned out to be jade, and he even uncovered a fist-sized piece of Ice-Type Jade, estimated to be worth four or five hundred thousand, which made Qin Shan extremely happy.

Su Yifei continued his streak of bad luck from the past two days, with half of the original stones he bought turning out to be worthless rocks, and the rest mostly being Glutinous Jade Stone and Bean-Type Jade Stone of poor quality, which were not very valuable. After calculating, he had lost a fair amount of money again.

"My damn luck is so bad!"

Su Yifei’s face was full of misery as he lamented his misfortune.

Qin Shan said with a chuckle, "Little brother, why don’t you try picking a few more? Maybe you’ll recoup your losses next time?"

"Let’s go! Let’s have a look!"

Su Yifei, who hadn’t uncovered a single decent piece of jade in several days, was reluctant to give up. Just as he was about to go with Qin Shan to pick more original stones, he saw Fang Bai standing there leisurely and waved to him, saying, "Brother, don’t just stand there! Come over and have a look, give me some advice!"

Then he suddenly remembered that Fang Bai had just spent 150,000 on an original stone that everyone had been pessimistic about. Thinking that Fang Bai’s judgment couldn’t be that great, would he dare to trust his advice?

Fang Bai, having obtained a treasure, was in an excellent mood and followed Su Yifei towards the piles of original stones.

Qin Shan and Su Yifei, relying on their own judgment and experience, each picked through the heaps of original stones seriously.

Fang Bai stood by, watching them select one stone after another, smiling without saying a word.

"Brother, what do you think about these few original stones I’ve picked?"

Su Yifei pointed to a few stones piled on a cart and asked casually.

Fang Bai glanced over those stones and shook his head, "Not great! They’re all worthless rocks!"

Su Yifei retorted, "Cut it out, your eyes are no good! I think there’s still a chance they’ll have jade."

Fang Bai pursed his lips and replied with annoyance, "Believe it or not, it’s up to you! Just don’t blame me later for not warning you!"

Su Yifei, of course, didn’t believe him and challenged Fang Bai, "You help me pick a few original stones! If any of them turn out to be jade, I’ll believe you!"

Fang Bai casually pointed to a stone at Su Yifei’s feet and said indifferently, "That one then!"

Su Yifei looked down and saw the stone Fang Bai was pointing to was about the size of a soccer ball, priced at three thousand eight hundred, the one he had overlooked at first glance.

According to Su Yifei’s "expert" judgment, there was a ninety percent chance that this original stone was an ordinary rock, and even if it contained jade, it would likely be low-quality Bean-Type Jade Stone, hence the low price tag.
