Chapter 80: Chapter 80: Don’t Be Ungrateful
"Huh? Isn’t this Mr. Beishan!"
"He’s a legend in the Gambling Stone World!"
"He seldom interferes with others’ affairs, but today he’s actually taking the initiative to give advice to a young person, how lucky this youth is!"
Listening to the people around him, the elder named Beishan showed a proud expression on his face.
"Thank you for your kindness, sir, but I still want to buy this raw stone," Yang Yu said with a slight smile, preparing his card, and Mr. Beishan suddenly became angry, "Boy, do you really want to waste hundreds of thousands like that?"
"I still trust my own judgment," Yang Yu placed his hand on the raw stone and immediately became one hundred percent certain that there was something extraordinary within this stone.
Mr. Beishan immediately sneered, "True to the saying ’a stubborn ghost can’t be warned by good words.’ If you like to waste money like throwing it into the water, then suit yourself!"
The onlookers also came forward to persuade, "Young man, Mr. Beishan is willing to give you advice; don’t be ungrateful!"
"Yes, the elder is trying to save you money; you really are... sigh!"
Seeing that everyone believed Mr. Beishan so much, Yang Yu then said with a smile, "Old sir, how about this, to avoid them saying I don’t appreciate your kindness, let’s make a bet, shall we?"
Mr. Beishan asked with interest, "Oh, and how do you want to bet?"
"Simple," Yang Yu said, "I’ll buy this raw stone, and if what is cut from it is just ordinary Ice-type, whatever the highest market price for that Ice-type is, I’ll pay you ten times that amount as an apology."
Yang Yu continued, "If what’s cut from it turns out to be a very rare Jade, I won’t need your money; just bow to me, call me ’Mr. Yang’, and admit your fault, that will suffice."
"Haha, interesting!" Mr. Beishan laughed heartily, "Alright, it’s a bet then!"
A large crowd of onlookers gathered, and under their watchful eyes, Yang Yu paid the money and then said to the Cutting Master, "Please help me cut it open, thank you."
"Okay," the Cutting Master, very skilled, picked up the cutting machine and began to cut.
All eyes were fixed on the raw stone, eager to see the outcome.
Soon, the Cutting Master had cut the Jade out from inside.
"Haha, as expected, it’s just an ordinary Ice-type."
"This kid is too confident; now he should learn his lesson, right?"
The people looked at Yang Yu with eyes full of mockery and schadenfreude, while Mr. Beishan spoke with a face full of satisfaction, "Kid, I don’t want your money; just bow to me and admit your mistake, and we’ll call it even. What do you say?"
The crowd exploded with flattery, "Mr. Beishan is such a good man!"
"Indeed, that piece of Ice-type Jade is worth over a hundred thousand, ten times that is over a million, Mr. Beishan is truly noble!"
"Mr. Elder, are you sure I lost?" Yang Yu held up the Ice-type Jade and smiled at Mr. Beishan, "This piece is top-grade Ice Crystal Jade!"
"Ice Crystal Jade? What is that nonsense?"
"I’ve never heard of it either. Has this kid gone crazy and started babbling?"
The crowd was puzzled, but Mr. Beishan’s face changed suddenly, "You say it’s Ice Crystal Jade? How is that possible? I’ve only read about this type of Jade in books; I’ve never seen it once in the real world!"
"Since you’ve read about it in a book, then you should know how to tell if a piece of Jade is Ice Crystal Jade," Yang Yu said confidently, "Why don’t we verify it right here?"
"Fine," Mr. Beishan took a deep breath, then turned to the attendant and said, "Bring a basin of clear water here."
"All right, Mr. Beishan." The waitress immediately went to fetch some clear water, and during this time, everyone hastily searched on their cell phones, then became incredibly excited: "No way, could it really be Ice Crystal Jade?"
"This thing truly could be considered priceless. Such a large piece of Ice Crystal Jade, it’s worth at least a hundred million!"
"Shouldn’t we get it appraised first? It can’t be just because the kid says so."
Less than three minutes later, the waitress came over with a basin of clear water, accompanied by a woman in her early thirties.
This woman was dignified and poised, with a mature charm that was extremely comforting to behold.
Many recognized her at once and greeted the woman: "Miss Xue Feng, hello."
"Hello everyone." Bai Xuefeng responded very amiably to the crowd, then greeted Mr. Beishan, "Mr. Beishan, hello."
"Hello, Xue Feng girl." Mr. Beishan casually replied to Bai Xuefeng, then couldn’t wait to shout at Yang Yu, "Quick, put the jade in."
"Okay." Yang Yu placed the jade into the basin, and the next moment, something miraculous occurred.
The jade actually "melted" in the water, completely disappearing from sight!
"Oh my God! It really is Ice Crystal Jade!"
"This... This is incredible, striking it rich!"
"The very first raw stone today has revealed such a precious jade, there must be even better ones here!"
The eyes of the crowd instantly turned red with envy, which made them even more convinced that gambling with stones could make one very wealthy.
Mr. Beishan was dumbfounded, and it took him a while to turn towards Yang Yu awkwardly and say, "Young man, I truly misjudged earlier. I can compensate you with a million, can you spare me from bowing?"
"Words must be honored. You care about your face, does that mean I don’t?" Yang Yu snorted, "You just ridiculed me with a whole bunch of people. Is my request too much?"
Knowing he was in the wrong, Mr. Beishan had no choice but to sincerely bow to Yang Yu: "Sir, I was wrong earlier."
After apologizing, Mr. Beishan’s face was as red as a cooked crab.
Yang Yu nodded in satisfaction: "Elderly sir, while you were a bit arrogant, your character is still quite decent."
Mr. Beishan couldn’t help but roll his eyes, nearly dying of anger.
This kid is too good at putting on a show.
But, who’s to blame for losing the bet? Sigh!
"Mr. Yang, is it?" Bai Xuefeng looked at Yang Yu with a smile, "Could you sell this piece of Ice Crystal Jade to the Bai Family? We will offer a hundred and thirty million."
"A hundred and thirty million?" Everyone gasped in astonishment, that price was truly maddening!
"Sure, I’m here to make money from gambling on stones," Yang Yu said with a smile, "Transfer the payment to me, and this piece of Ice Crystal Jade is yours, Bai Family."
Bai Xuefeng was efficient in handling affairs, and soon a hundred and thirty million appeared in Yang Yu’s account, making everyone else’s eyes bleed with envy: "Everyone, hurry and take a look, make your move quickly, maybe we can still reveal supreme Red Crowns and top-notch Emperor Greens!"
Not to mention the frenzy of the crowd, even Yang Yu himself hadn’t expected gambling on stones to be so profitable.
"This world really isn’t fair, some people become wealthy overnight, while others struggle for food and clothing their whole lives," Yang Yu thought to himself, "but fairness was never absolute. Once, I struggled for a living, but now, I’m going to be the lucky one who strikes it rich!"
