Chapter 163
The Understated Dragon Lord
Chapter 163 Luck Runs Out
Amid the crowdâs chatter, the themes were clear: praise Andrew and trample Daniel. Every man in New York despised Daniel, wishing they could smash this country boy
to a pulp for receiving such favor from the cityâs top beauty.
Then Andrew stepped forward, filled with pride like a victor among roosters after Isaacâs first pick washed away any prior indignity.
âEveryone! Letâs quiet down! Letâs see what this country boyâs stones are like first. What if they turn out to be worth more than five million?â
As soon as Andrew finished, the crowd burst into boisterous laughter. Once they had
their laughs, they began to discuss among themselves.
âThat country boy got lucky last time; I donât believe his luck will hold!â
âIf this country boyâs stone turns out to be worth more than five million, Iâll eat that rock myself.â
âEating a rock is so uninteresting. How about you liveâstream yourself doing a handstand while taking a dump?â
âDamn! Can you guys not discuss such disgusting things? Thereâs lobster and king crab over there for the taking. Canât you say something less appetiteâkilling?â
After the clamor settled, Daniel brought forward the most expensive stone he had picked, priced at two million.
âCut this one,â Daniel instructed the staff.
Andrew glanced at the stoneâs price tag, smugly guessing Danielâs intentions.â Country boy, I know what game youâre playing. You took out the most expensive stone in your hand to compare with the cheapest of Isaacâs. If yours is worth more, fair enough, but if not, I think you can concede right now!â
âHow can a country boy understand your thoughts, Andrew? He will only get it after heâs lost all his money!â Brittany couldnât resist adding her comment.
Without delay, the staff member took the electric saw to the stone Daniel had
chosen. After the buzzing stopped, the twoâmillionâvalued stone was split in two The inside revealed absolutely nothingâjust a valueless stone.
Andrew had been worried that Danielâs luck might be too good, but upon seeing the cut stone, he laughed.
âCountry boy, it seems your luck has run out, huh? You spent two million on this
stone, and itâs worthless! Let me see, I didnât even spot a piece of jade the size of a fingertip.â
âItâs gambling! I canât win every time, can I? Losing occasionally is perfectly normal! Donât worry; I still have two more stones. Weâre comparing total value. As long as the total worth of jade from my stones is higher than the King of Jade Gamblingâs, I win.â
Daniel deliberately picked three stones, two of which he knew were just useless rock. But the third concealed the finest quality jade. Tactically, he wanted to save this best piece for last. So there was no rush; he was playing it cool.
