63: Chapter 0063: Blindfolded Gambling Stone 63: Chapter 0063: Blindfolded Gambling Stone Chu Ge’s words were filled with killing intent, causing everyone present to shiver, looking in shock at this young man who was younger than most of the people there.
Duan Congxing looked deeply at Chu Ge and nodded, saying, “Good, I agree to your bet!”
“Hey!” Klaus shouted, dissatisfied, “You don’t have the right to make decisions for me!”
“Here, I do!” At this time, Duan Congxing no longer concealed his tone, speaking coldly, “If you win, I promise to triple the reward I agreed to give you!
If you lose, then what you’ll lose will be more than just two eyes.”
Klaus’s face changed.
He did not doubt the accuracy of Duan Congxing’s words at all.
After all, he had been with the old man for nearly half a month, and knew how ruthless he was better than anyone else.
“So, boy, come on!” Klaus’s fingers slid over several stones in front of him, “I will make you understand what despair means!”
Not only Klaus, but also the surrounding audience did not believe Chu Ge had a chance to win, especially since even Mr.
Divine Eye, Luo Tianmu, had been defeated five times in a row.
“Old Master, pass me that black cloth.”
Mr.
Ouyang was stunned, but still decided to follow Chu Ge’s request, instructing several people behind him, “Bring a piece of black cloth over.”
As everyone wondered what he intended to do, they saw Chu Ge take the black cloth and blindfold his eyes!
“Wow—” There was a burst of astonishment!
Even Klaus’s face changed.
He had encountered many arrogant gamblers over the years, but this was the first time he had seen someone prepare to gamble on stones blindfolded.
“Chu…” Mr.
Ouyang was somewhat worried, but Chu Ge simply waved his hand at him, silencing any further concern.
But the crowd around them stirred up a commotion.
“It’s over, this time the Ouyang Family is going to lose badly!”
“Exactly, could this kid be someone the Duan Family sent over specifically to collude in scamming the Ouyang Family?”
“Right?
Betting on stones blindfolded, if you’re going to pretend, at least make it look convincing…”
Ignoring the surrounding chatter, with his eyes covered, Chu Ge reached out and touched a stone, indeed feeling a faint trace of Spiritual Energy within it, which indicated there was just ordinary jade inside this stone.
“After you select the stones, let me feel them.”
Klaus glanced at the blindfolded Chu Ge and sneered, “Fine, if there’s enough time, feel them as long as you want!”
Chu Ge silently nodded and gestured towards the front, “Then let’s start.”
Different from Klaus’s meticulous observation, Chu Ge’s fingers lingered on each stone for only a second or two.
Seeing this, the people around shook their heads and sighed again.
Just touching the stone with fingertips, without even really feeling what the stones were like, how could he possibly pick out anything good?
Luo Tianmu, who originally had a glimmer of hope, felt a tightness in his chest when he saw Chu Ge acting so hastily, almost spitting out a mouthful of blood right there on the spot.
Klaus had already chosen a stone roughly the size of a human head: “I’ve made my choice.”
“Oh!” Chu Ge nodded his head, then seemed to casually pick up a stone only the size of his palm: “Then I’ll take this one.”
His words made everyone’s expression turn rather strange, as if this guy didn’t really choose but just took a random stone after the other party had made their selection.
“Ha ha ha ha!” Duan Congxing laughed triumphantly, cupping his fists in a salute: “Ouyang Yunbao, I didn’t expect the Ouyang Family to be so generous as to gift me assets like this, so I won’t be polite.”
Mr.
Ouyang obviously didn’t know how to retort, and didn’t even understand why he impulsively chose to unconditionally trust Chu Ge in the moment.
Now, it was too late for second thoughts, so he had to continue believing!
“Let’s begin.” Klaus was just about to hand the stone to the staff when Chu Ge stopped him abruptly.
“What, having second thoughts?
It’s too late for regrets now!” Duan Congxing sneered, but Chu Ge shook his head: “Have you forgotten the agreement we just made?”
“What agreement?” Duan Congxing hesitated for a moment, then slapped his forehead: “Heh heh, I almost forgot.
It’s just to let you touch it, right?
I don’t believe you can magically discern anything by touch!”
Saying that, he pushed the stone in front of Chu Ge.
Chu Ge still had a blindfold over his eyes at this moment, stretched out a finger and lightly tapped on the stone.
“Indeed, there’s some trick to it!” he sighed inwardly, feeling a strong and concentrated surge of Spiritual Energy from the tip of his finger, which indicated that this stone must contain quality jade!
Any ordinary person would undoubtedly lose this round, but they could only blame their bad luck for going up against a Chu Ge who was akin to a cheat.
Under Chu Ge’s full absorption, it was merely a short span of ten-odd seconds before no more Spiritual Energy came from the stone, and Chu Ge also lowered his finger, nodding towards the other side: “It’s done.”
“Pretentious mystic tricks!” Duan Congxing murmured, pushing the stone to the edge of the table: “What about yours?”
The stone Chu Ge selected was only the size of his palm, easily placed together.
Regardless of whether he was bluffing or whatnot, all eyes were now fixed on the two stones.
The stone chosen by Chu Ge was not only small but was also covered in tiny cracks, looking like something no one might even bother picking up if it were thrown onto a busy road.
Ignoring Mr.
Ouyang’s grim face, Duan Congxing struggled to suppress his laughter and said: “Don’t say I’m bullying the young.
Since your stone looks smaller, why not we open it first?”
“Alright.” Surprisingly, Chu Ge agreed without any hesitation.
As the grinding machine whirred, Chu Ge’s stone was slowly cut open, revealing, to some surprise, a piece of jade inside.
Although it was only about the size of a quail egg and flawed with impurities, it was a piece of poor, low-grade jade.
“Ha ha ha ha!” Chris laughed heartily, not missing an opportunity to tease: “Lucky you, you actually managed to find jade.”
Not just him, but others around struggling to hold back their laughter at the sight of the small jade.
But glancing at Mr.
Ouyang’s stern expression, no one dared to laugh out loud.
“Ouyang Yunbao, it seems I win this round again!” The excitement on Duan Congxing’s face was unmistakable.
A thirty percent stake in assets was enough to elevate the Duan Family to the next level and become the number one family in Shanghai!
“It’s a bit early to be so happy, isn’t it?” Chu Ge tapped on the table, speaking calmly: “Aren’t we still yet to open your stone?”
“Do we even need to?” Chris shrugged his shoulders, pushing the stone to the edge of the table: “I feel like there’s no hope for you.”
Under professional machinery, the stone was quickly carved open, and when the contents within were exposed, everyone’s eyes widened.
Chris was particularly stunned, muttering: “How…
How is this possible?”
