Chapter 63

"How much is this stone?" Ethan had a bold guess in his mind and asked the man guarding the stall.

“You're interested in this piece? You look like a recent graduate. I'll give it to you for $10,000! I won't make a profit off you, but if you lose in gambling, don't come looking for me!"

The man couldn't help but sneer, not believing that Ethan could afford it.

Ethan, who seemed clueless, quickly turned his eyes and said to the man,“Three thousand dollars, if I lose, it's my bad luck!"

Ethan pretended not to hear what the boss said earlier and quoted his own price.

"Who bargains like this? Alright, take it for eight thousand dollars!How about this?”

The man widened his eyes, thinking that this person didn't seem easy to fool?

Seeing Ethan staring straight at him, the man had to change his words again, "Five thousand dollars, can't go any lower!"

Upon hearing this, Ethan turned and walked away!

"...Don't leave...three thousand dollars will do, okay?"

Seeing that Ethan was really leaving, the man suddenly became anxious.

“You've made three thousand dollars, don't act like you suffered a big loss!”

Ethan paid the man for the piece of ore he had just picked up, then left without looking back.

“Spending three thousand dollars on a piece of junk, look at what you're capable of!"

When Ethan was far away, the man sneered coldly.

"Alex,is that the stone you bought?"

Seeing Ethan approachinng with a piece of ore in his hand, Hannah asked in surprise.

"Isn't it just a piece of worthless scrap? You actually bought this kind of stone? But then again, what else could you afford?”

Clint glanced at the ore in Ethan's hand and mockingly laughed.

Seeing Hannah glaring at him, Clint shut his mouth reluctantly, but a cold and sinister expression flashed in his eyes.

“I want to open it up and see if there's any jade inside!"

Ethan didn't even look at Clint. He just said to Hannah.

“Hahaha...you really dare to think...Miss Collins...you better take him to cut the jade quickly, so he doesn't miss out on making big money!"

Clint couldn't help himself and laughed again in response to Hannah's disapproving gaze.

"Then come with me!"

Hannah said and took Ethan to the stall where they cut the stones.

Looking at the piece of scrap that Ethan brought, the stonecutter looked at him contemptuously and pointed to the price list, saying to Ethan,“Take a look at the price list. Regardless of the size of the

stone, I charge one thousand dollars per cut!"

"No problem, go ahead and cut it!" Ethan said nonchalantly.

The stonecutter also didn't expect to encounter such a fool like him today.He took the stone from Ethan and placed it on the cutting table.

"It's too small, do yrou want me to cut or polish?" the stonecutter asked Ethan.

“Cut it in half from the middle!" Ethan said without hesitation.

The stonecutter didn't take it seriously and casually cut the small stone in half with the saw blade.

Suddenly, a curse word burst out of the stonecutter's mouth.

As the one who cut the stone, he was naturally the first one to see the inside after it was cut!

"Is a piece of scrap really worth making such a fuss about? I want to see...”

“Look...”

At this moment, Clint came forward and took half of the ore in his hand.

At the same time, the conditions of the two halves of the ore were presented in front of everyone's eyes, instantly choking Clint's words in his throat!
