Chapter 435
Lord Protector Novel
However, Nancy was mad. How I wish I can kick his butt now.
What is he doing? Heâs asking for it by taking the bet... Alright, go ahead and take off your pants if thatâs what you want. Itâs time you learn some lesson!
The staff cut the stone carefully into half.
The crowd immediately moved forward, wanting to take a look.
âOh my god... I canât believe it!â The crowd began to exclaim.
What is it?
Indeed, the surface of the stone was a layer of âImperial Greenâ but the inside was covered with cracks, and there were many black dots visible.
Thus, only the outer layer could be considered as the top-grade âImperial Green.â
The rest of the green inside with cracks could only be classified as the normal grade.
Although the black dots in the cracks could be ripped off to make some small pieces of ornaments, the value was not the same anymore.
The profit of the stone was estimated to be three to four or even five hundred million. But now it was at most, ten million!
Hadley never thought she was going to lose more than two hundred million this time.
She was almost on the verge of breaking down.
How could this happen? How could a top-grade stone turn out like this?
She had given one billion to the underworld forces in Rivermouth previously, and that two hundred and fifty million was all that she got.
Great! Iâve lost all my money! Iâm totally broke now!
She couldnât accept the fact and kept shaking her head, âNo, it canât be true. The staff must have made a mistake...â
Even the crowd could not believe what they saw.
The auctioneerâs face turned pale.
He had boasted about this jade before, saying that it could worth more than five hundred million!
He even sneered at Zeke Williamsâs comment previously.
But now... it seemed that he was the fool himself.
The Imperial Auction House might lose its renowned reputation too!
The man who claimed to take off his pants if he lost was preparing to make a run.
Itâs just a joke! How could anyone live stream himself naked?
But Zeke Williams was not going to let him get away with it.
He flicked his right hand slightly, and a silver needle shot out and stabbed into the guyâs thigh.
The man screamed, covered his legs, and collapsed to the ground immediately.
His scream gave everyone a shock.
âZeke, youâre just lucky to guess it right twice,â said Nancy.
But this time, the crowd seriously doubted Nancyâs words.
Well, you can call yourself lucky if it happens once, but twice? He must be an expert because what he said so far has turned out to be true!
Itâs unlikely to be just based on pure luck! Who can be so lucky? As the saying goes, once youâre lucky, twice youâre good...
Someone from the crowd asked, âMr. Williams, whatâs the title of the book that you read? Can you please let us know? We want to learn it as well.â
Zeke Williams ignored them as he stared at the man who bet with him just now. âHey, you loser. Strip off your pants now! Who can help him?â
That guy blushed and refuted, âYou know nothing about jade. You just got lucky...â
âYou only guessed it right. It doesnât mean that youâre an expert in this field.â
âThen tell me. How do you want me to do to prove that Iâm an expert?â Zeke Williams asked.
After thinking for a while, that man said, âWell, youâre very confident with the stone that you bought, right?â
âIf the stone that you bought is a full-green, then Iâm convinced that youâre an expert.â
Everyone glared at him in astonishment.
This guy is ridiculous!
How could those scraps have a full-green inside?
Itâs impossible!
However, to everyoneâs surprise, Zeke Williams agreed without hesitation.
âSure, no problem. Help me move that big stone here!â
Everyone was speechless.
Heâs so confident! Does he really believe there is a full-green inside his stone?
But that isnât top grade stone!
What a joke!
The staff immediately moved two big stones over and asked, âMr. Williams, how do you want to cut it?â
âDonât cut. Just rub it from the edges.â
Rub?
The crowd couldnât help but laugh.
This stone is already cut open, and there is no green on the surface. How is rubbing going to show it?
