The King of Global Scrap Collection
Chapter 48 - 48 50 Untitled

48: Chapter 50: Untitled 48: Chapter 50: Untitled The Stone Cutting Master began to cut.

However, not many people at the scene were paying attention.

They were either praising Wang Qian or mocking Li Zhongnan.

Everyone was convinced that this was a piece of waste stone, and that Li Zhongnan had already lost.

The stone got smaller and smaller.

When it was about the size of two fists, a lackey behind Wang Qian couldn’t help but laugh, and said, “Master, don’t cut anymore, you’re simply wasting your strength!”

However, just as these words fell, his smile instantly froze.

A hint of green sparkled out!

Boom!

They saw green?

Everyone was startled and shocked.

It was unbelievable, even the stone discarded by Feng Lao, who had asserted it to be useless, turned out to be jade.

What an incredible stroke of luck for the scrap collector!

Green, represents the best jade!

The bustling crowd instantly quieted down, everyone staring at the knife in the hand of the Stone Cutting Master.

In stark contrast to their previous indifference.

Even Feng Lao was taken aback.

Had he misjudged?

The Stone Cutting Master wiped the sweat from his forehead and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

It was fortunate that the young lad didn’t listen to his suggestion to switch the stone.

Otherwise, he would have turned out to be a criminal with good intentions.

Of course, he was equally surprised.

Over the years, he had cut out green jade, but this was the first time from a stone originally priced at two hundred Yuan.

He took a deep breath, carefully cleaning it, afraid that even a tiny bit might be lost.

Done.

A fist-sized piece of jade revealed itself.

The color was bright and vibrant.

It was green with a bit of a yellow undertone.

It resembled an unripe apple.

One could almost taste the hint of yellow in the green with just the eyes.

Feng Lao looked at it and excitedly called out, “This is apple green, it’s filled with green, the water quality is excellent, it can make at least three bracelets!

Worth three million to five million!”

Finished, he glanced at Li Zhongnan.

At this moment, Li was remarkably calm, no surprise or ecstasy on his face.

Feng Lao couldn’t help but be amazed.

Could this young man be actually so talented, his judgment even sharper than his?

Was this jade not a stroke of luck but a calculated bet?

At such a young age, it was very rare.

Feng Lao nodded at him, admiration in his eyes.

Boom!

At the words, the crowd exploded once again.

The two hundred plus Yuan had turned into several million in an instant.

It was a rags to riches story.

The crowd looked at Li Zhongnan with awe, not a hint of mockery.

One could see the intense envy in their eyes.

Hearing this, Wang Qian screamed, “This is impossible, absolutely impossible!”

Feng Lao glanced at him and asked, “Are you questioning my judgment?”

A young woman followed, exclaiming, “This piece of jade, I, Ye Piaoling will take it.

I bid three million!”

A beautiful young woman chimed in, “My Princess Yieno bids four million!”

An mature and radiant lady then shouted, “I, Haiten Cangsang bid five million!”

In this international metropolis of Shenzhen, there are many women but few men, what they have in abundance are super-rich women.

For them, spending millions on a piece of jade is as simple as shopping at Taobao for an ordinary woman.

Eventually, the highest bid settled at six million.

Feng Lao looked at Li Zhongnan, “Young man, would you like to auction it off?”

“Of course!”

Li Zhongnan smiled, appearing calm and collected.

However, inside he was overjoyed.

After all, he came to gamble on stones this time with the intention to make some capital.

But he never thought that with just one bet, he would win over five million.

How exhilarating.

Moreover, he managed to teach Wang Qian a lesson.

Oh, how satisfying.

Light-hearted, he even took the opportunity to hold Xiao Yao’s hand when she was not paying attention.

Don’t give me a chance, or else I’ll continue to mess with you.

Li Zhongnan glanced at Wang Qian triumphantly, and said, “Young Master Wang, admit it!”

In the end, he turned to a lackey and said, “Gentleman, are you ready?

I’m waiting to see you eat the stone raw!”

The other party argued, “I never said that!”

Shu Rong called out, “I can testify, he said that as long as Mr.

Li wins, he will eat all the stones on the ground!”

“I can also testify!”

“We all heard it!

You can’t argue your way out.

Eat it fast!”

“Yes, eat it fast!”

Among the onlookers, many people began to cheer, keen to watch the scene of someone getting their just desserts.

Li Zhongnan glanced at Wang Qian, sighed and said, “Oh, forget it, let’s not force him.

Let’s leave some face for Young Master Wang, after all, he is Wang’s man.”

In the crowd, someone whispered, “Wang Qian, I really look down on you!

Can’t even control a lackey!”

One of Wang Qian’s “friends” straightforwardly advised, “Brother, just let him eat it!

You can’t let his words be seen as fart.

It will ruin your reputation, right?”

Listening to this, Wang Qian took on a pained expression, his face alternately turning green and pale.

He’d already felt humiliated after losing the bet.

Now with this twist of events, if he didn’t respond, he would likely become the butt of everyone’s jokes in the future.

Hearing everyone’s words, Wang Qian glared at his lackey, saying harshly, “Liu Wenkai, a true gentleman’s word is his bond.

It’s just a few kilos of stone materials, you can go ahead and eat them!”

“Master Wang, I don’t want to eat it!”

Upon hearing this, Liu Wenkai was taken aback as he had hoped Wang Qian would plead his case.

Wang Qian was momentarily taken off guard and felt humiliated.

He shouted, “I am ordering you to eat them right now!”

“Hahahaha!”

Liu Wenkai burst into frenzied laughter and grabbed a handful of stone materials.

Everyone broke into raucous laughter, waiting to witness him eat.

Instead, Liu Wenkai, clutching the stones, turned and smashed them onto Wang Qian’s head.

He shouted, “I eat your grandfather!

Wang Qian, I, Liu Wenkai, have never taken you seriously!

I’ve only been sucking up to you because of your influential father!

But today, I’m done with you!

I’ll kill you!”

Shouting, he grabbed and smashed more stones before striding away.

Watching the swelling bumps on Wang Qian’s head, everyone present was taken aback.

This sudden turn of events was rather unexpected.

However, they all secretly felt that Wang Qian deserved this; it served him right.

To force his flunky to eat stones, he could do such things, clearly valuing his pride over human dignity.

Moreover, forcing a person to eat several kilos of rocks?

How is that possible!

They were just stirring up trouble, seizing the opportunity to laugh, even an idiot would know Liu Wenkai wouldn’t really eat those stones.

But Wang Qian, the young master, was seriously forcing him to eat them.

Has he gone mad!

While enjoying the drama, Li Zhongnan didn’t forget his purpose and turned to the white-bearded elder, asking, “Feng Lao, can you transfer the money to me now?”

“No!

Absolutely not!”

Before Feng Lao could reply, Wang Qian started shouting.

Li Zhongnan turned around, shot him a glance, and asked, “What?

Young Master Wang, you want to continue the bet?”

Grinding his teeth, Wang Qian responded, “Of course.

Owing to sheer luck, you won this time.

As the so-called ‘Gambling Saint with the Jade Face,’ how could I possibly lose to a rag-picker like you?”

Not only had he lost the stone-betting contest to Li Zhongnan, but he had also been hit on the head by his own underling.

At this point, his face was burning with shame.

It felt like everyone was mocking him.

If he didn’t turn the tables, he, Young Master Wang, would most certainly become the laughingstock of everyone’s gossip.

Would he just give up like this?

Upon hearing this, Li Zhongnan became interested.

If Wang Qian wanted to give him money, how could he possibly refuse?

But this chump obviously hadn’t forgotten the previous taunts from Wang Qian.

Mimicking Wang Pian’s tone, he said, “You can bet with me, but anything less than five million, I won’t accept.

Do you have that kind of money?”

“You!”

Wang Qian’s face contorted again.

He really didn’t have that much cash on hand right now.

Feeling helpless, he had to look towards some of his friends, “Brothers, can any of you lend me five million, I’ll pay back six million later!”

Upon his request, everyone started to distance themselves.

Joking aside, five million is not a small sum; they couldn’t just loan it out.

Besides, the scene of him forcing his “friend” to eat stones was still fresh in everyone’s minds!

This was a great blow to Wang Qian, filling him with despair.

At that moment, a loud female voice rang out, “Master Wang, I’ll lend you the money!”

“Sister Chun Hua, thank you, thank you so much.” Upon hearing this, Wang Qian was so touched that he started thanking her repeatedly, holding her hand tightly.

What?

Li Zhongnan looked at “Sister Chun Hua,” trying to suppress his fear.

My goodness, she’s even taller and stouter than Aunt Cui Hua, her round body covered with lumps of flesh.

She probably weighs no less than three hundred pounds.

Moreover, “Sister Chun Hua” had a round face full of fat covered in layers of heavy makeup which looked nauseating.

Besides that, her mouth was large enough to swallow a football, her lips painted a colour redder than fresh blood…

No more, I can’t look anymore!

Of course, to Wang Qian, anyone who could lend him money was likable.

Five million!

Soon that money would be his!

After a while.

“Sister Chun Hua” suddenly leaned over to Li Zhongnan, whispering, “Handsome guy, I have a favor to ask of you, please win over Master Wang!”

Caught off guard, Li Zhongnan asked, “Why?”

Sister Chun Hua replied, “Because…

because I’ve liked Master Wang for a long time.

He’s truly very handsome, very dashing.

I love him, I think about him day and night.

Yet, he doesn’t love me.

This time, if you win and he can’t repay my money…”

“He’ll have to compensate me with his body!”
