Chapter 165: Chapter 165: They’re the Ones Getting Slapped in the Face_1

"Go Lao’er?"

Manager Zhou’s eyebrows knit slightly, his expression becoming a tad serious.

Go Lao’er was the second in command at Jucail Commercial Association and counted as a personage in Jiangling City.

He hadn’t expected this guy, who looked like a loser, to actually know Go Lao’er; this made matters somewhat tricky.

"Oh, it’s Brother Go," Manager Zhou said with a switched-on smile as he went to greet him, "I’m the manager of Yulin Zhai—Zhou Chao. Last year at your association’s annual meeting, we drank together, remember?"

"Oh, it’s you." Go Lao’er replied indifferently, barely giving the other man another look as he walked towards Mo Han and respectfully said, "Mister Mo, I have brought over the six million. Do you need anything else?"

Hmm?

Seeing Go Lao’er’s attitude, Zhou Chao’s brows furrowed even more—could it be that this Mo fellow was a wolf in sheep’s clothing?

But that couldn’t be right. If he were really a tiger, why would his father-in-law act so pitifully subservient?

"I don’t have any other needs, but I can’t just take your money for nothing," Mo Han said with a faint smile, casually picking up a fist-sized stone from Area A and asking, "How much is this?"

The shop assistant glanced at Manager Zhou, who nodded his head. On this cue, the assistant nervously stated the truth, "A thousand two."

"Good!"

Mo Han nodded, took out his phone from his pocket, scanned the QR code and swiftly transferred one thousand and two hundred.

Then he picked up the stone. "This stone is mine now, right?"

The assistant nodded, and Mo Han handed the stone to Go Lao’er with a slight smile, saying, "You give me six million, and I give you a stone, is that okay?"

Uh...

Go Lao’er gave a sheepish smile, "Of course! Even if Mister Mo gave me a blade of grass, it would be a treasure."

"Come here." Mo Han motioned to Go Lao’er with a nod of his head. Go Lao’er, puzzled, approached, and Mo Han, without another word, grabbed Go Lao’er’s right palm and immediately drove a silver needle into it.

Go Lao’er was initially startled—had he said something wrong to offend Mister Mo? However, soon he felt warmth radiating from his palm, and the place that had been pierced by a knife seemed to be slowly healing.

His face lit up with joy as he realized Mister Mo was in a good mood and was helping him heal.

Last time one of his men had offended Mister Mo, and to provide an explanation to Mister Mo, he had deliberately stabbed himself, which had caused him quite some inconvenience in his activities.

He had thought he would be crippled for life, but today Mister Mo had unexpectedly taken the initiative to treat him.

"Mister Mo, I..." He was so moved he almost knelt down.

With a sweep of his right hand, Mo Han summoned a breeze that gently lifted Go Lao’er to his feet. Mo Han’s eyes narrowed and he said unhurriedly, "Brother Go, don’t hurry to thank me. Let’s cut the stone first."

"This one will definitely produce jade, and it certainly won’t cause a loss for you, Brother Go."

"Hahaha! Good!"

Go Lao’er’s eyes flickered with understanding—Mister Mo didn’t want his identity revealed. He laughed heartily and said, "Mister Mo is always lucky. We’ll do as you say."

Listening to their conversation, Manager Zhou and the others all let out a laugh.

The stones in Area A were all rough jade material at their crudest; hoping to score jade from here was as likely as finding a needle in a haystack, practically impossible.

"Definitely produce jade? Haha, even the top gem appraisers from Southern Myanmar wouldn’t dare make such a claim. This kid is really full of bluster."

"Exactly! As the saying goes, even immortals can’t ascertain jade with a glance. There’s not a single instrument in this world that can see through the interior of a stone. This kid claiming it will produce jade is pure bluffing."

"Nonsense, isn’t it all bluffing? That’s six million we’re talking about. Who would willingly fork over that much money without some coaxing?"

The onlookers were all quick to voice their opinions, seemingly certain that the raw stone Mo Han gave to Go Lao’er was junk with no chance of producing jade.

Go Lao’er himself was somewhat troubled. He was no stranger to the jade gambling scene; in fact, he had once gambled for three days and nights in Southern Myanmar and lost everything, even racking up a huge debt.

It was during this time in Myanmar discussing business that He Chen, having some spare time, went to a lake to clear his mind and coincidentally spotted Go Lao’er preparing to drown himself. Seeing potential in Go Lao’er, He Chen settled his debts and brought him to Jiangling City.

With such a small piece of jade, of only fist-size, the chances of it turning out green were almost zero. But with so many people mocking Mister Mo, he felt incredibly aggrieved.

"Brother Go, what are we waiting for?"

Just as he was agonizing over what to do, Mo Han spoke, "Cut it!"

"Uh... okay!"

Go Lao’er nodded and promptly passed the stone to the master cutter.

The cutter shook his head as he took the rough jade, knowing his job didn’t have a fixed salary—it all depended on tips from customers. If green was found, tips ranged from hundreds to tens of thousands.

In all his years, he had cut upwards of eight thousand stones, and he was certain that it was impossible for this fist-sized rough stone to yield jade.

"Seems like someone won’t give up until they hit the Yellow River. Old Liu, just cut it in front of everyone," Manager Zhou said with arms akimbo, quite ready to watch the spectacle unfold.

The crowd immediately cheered on, looking forward to seeing Mo Han and Go Lao’er make fools of themselves.

With a sigh, Go Lao’er thought that even though Mister Mo had vast abilities, predicting jade in a stone was nearly impossible.

Seemingly perceiving Go Lao’er’s worry, Mo Han patted his shoulder and smiled, "Brother Go, when have you ever seen me at a loss?"

"Rest assured, it’s them who will be faced!"
