" Please pay attention to the stall owners participating in the Stone Gambling Competition. In ten minutes, the competition organizing committee will send people to collect the raw materials for the competition. Please hurry up and choose the materials..."

After repeating it three times in a row, Xu Qing took advantage of this few minutes to call his sister-in-law to inform her that he was safe. When he mentioned that he had learned to cut jade from Master Xue, Qin Bing's voice revealed an uncontrollable excitement. She only said that nowadays, a university degree was far less practical than a superb craft.

Two pickup trucks slowly drove over from afar. There was a striking banner hanging on the front of the truck, which read " material collection cart." When the truck drove to stall No. 56, Meng Shicheng and the others were already waiting with a cart filled with raw materials.

Two people got out of the car. One was a burly man with a big waist, and the other was a bald middle-aged man with a short build.

The bald man held a paint pen in his hand and wrote a line of 'No. 56 Meng' on each of the three raw materials. Then, he waved his hand and asked the burly man to carry them into the car. He took out a triple sheet and a ballpoint pen from his pocket and whispered," Boss Meng, how many numbers are you going to buy this time?"

This man and Meng Shicheng were old acquaintances. His surname was Huang Bowen and he was also one of the sponsors of this trade fair. Apart from being a powerful jeweler, he also had another identity, one of the owners of the stone gambling competition.

All the stalls participating in the stone gambling competition in the venue will be set odds by the owners of the private lottery according to the results of the competition over the years. The bet is who will win this competition, which is called flat bet. For example, stall No. 56 had set the odds at one to five, and the odds of winning the competition were ten times. Meng Shicheng would then bet a million on his stall to win the competition. If stall No. 56 really won the championship, he would receive a full fifty million.

There is also a way to bet, called inviting gambling. For example, the odds of stall No. 56 were 1:5, and they had absolute confidence in winning the championship this time. They could list their stall number separately for others to bet on. If the stall No. 56 won the championship after the conference ended, all bets except for the 10% handling fee would go to stall No. 56. Otherwise, they would have to pay according to the odds of 1:5.

Bet no less than 100,000 yuan each time, with a maximum of two million yuan. Invite bet no less than 50,000 yuan, with no ceiling.

The stakes were extremely high. Most stall owners didn't have the courage to do so, and there was no need for it. Only stall owners with low odds and excellent raw materials dared to gamble. Others had to ask the stall owner for permission to place a big bet. As long as both parties agreed, the bet would be established, and many unnecessary troubles would be avoided.

" Okay, you don't have to treat me. Just the 10% handling fee alone is enough to treat you for ten years. No matter who wins or loses, it's on me."

Huang Bowen put away the check readily and patted Meng Shicheng on the shoulder before turning around and getting into the car.

" Good fellow, Old Meng. He made a bid of 50 million dollars. It would be strange if that Bai doesn't vomit blood this time." Tang Guobin chuckled and punched Meng Shicheng, causing him to stumble two steps back.

"Be gentle. My old arms and legs can't stand the pain. Come, let's settle the score. Pay this money first."

Meng Shicheng rubbed his aching arm and ran to his desk to take out his computer.

" Excluding the three yuan, the total is 52 million yuan. Minus 100,000 yuan, we'll split 17,300,000 yuan each..."

" Profiteer, didn't we agree beforehand that the winnings from the Stone Gambling Competition would be split among the three of us? How come this bet is also on my brother?" Tang Guobin couldn't help but glare. Old Meng was too unkind. He shared the money from the lottery with the two of them.

Xu Qing didn't feel that there was anything wrong with it. He took out a bank card and threw it directly to Meng Shicheng.

"Take this and swipe it. I'll press the password."

Meng Shicheng's heart warmed up." Alright, don't rush to swipe the card first. Leave it here and consider it a split."

Tang Guobin also took out a gold card and threw it over." Take it. Don't say that I'm petty."

Meng Shicheng put the two cards away, and a knowing smile appeared on his lips. In fact, he had already made up his mind that he would not touch a penny of the two regardless of whether the stone gambling competition was successful or not. However, this was his principle. If he really won, all the profits would be divided equally among the three, and no one would have any grudges in their hearts.

"The stone gambling competition is about to begin. Let's go and watch the excitement." Meng Shicheng stepped forward and put his arm around Xu Qing's shoulder. Unfortunately, he was a lot shorter. He didn't look like brothers, but rather like a monkey climbing a tree.

"Ha ha!" You f * cking Level 2 cripple, Brother Qian will give you a pair of internal height boosters if you win later." Tang Guobin saw Old Meng's embarrassed look and couldn't help but laugh and tease him, revealing a set of white and neat teeth. Some displeasure in his heart dissipated.
