The reason why the spectators often fulfilled their wish was because the Stone Gamblers had a nine out of ten bet. If the Stone Gamblers wanted to win, not only did they need an extremely keen sense of vision, but they also needed good luck. In this industry, there were simply too many variables.

Ye Xuan and the rest walked to Ouyang Xun's display stand, which was filled with large and small stones.

"Stop procrastinating! Hurry up and choose!" Ouyang Xun said with a provocative tone.

Ye Xuan glanced at the stones on the stage, and did not choose to pick one immediately.

Lithologist, who saw this scene, shook his head pitifully. He had untied twenty years of stones, and with a single glance, he could tell that a lot of them were trash.

Most likely, none of the dozens of people who could produce a green would be able to do so.

Seeing Lithologist shaking his head, Ding Qiang could not hold back his laughter. It seemed that this brat was really going to make a huge profit.

Seeing that Ye Xuan had not moved for a long time, Zhang Min tugged on the corner of his clothes and said softly: "Ye Xuan, if you're not sure, do you want me to help you choose?"

"Haha, I thought you were really capable, but in the end you actually had to be chosen by a woman. It seems like not only do you not have the guts, you don't even have the balls!" Ouyang Xun started to mock him.

As a notary, Ding Qiang said coldly: "This time's stone gambling is not allowed to be chosen by others. If you don't dare to choose, then just surrender, and get the hell out of the venue, don't try to lower the standard of our stone gambling!"

Ding Qiang's words caused the surrounding spectators to also start laughing.

Ye Xuan pretended not to hear the laughter as he secretly opened his eyes and walked in front of one of the stones and caressed it before picking it up.

"Then this is it, I'll have to trouble Master to help me unravel the stone." Ye Xuan handed the stone over to Lithologist.

Lithologist took the ore, and looked at Ye Xuan with a little contempt. This was because the method Ye Xuan chose was simply too easy, and he said half-heartedly: "You want to cut it? Or should I grind it? "

There were two ways to open the stone: cutting the stone and grinding it. The method to cut the stone would allow one to see whether or not it contained jadeite, but this method of explaining was also likely to damage the value of the jadeite.

As a result, not all stone gamblers would choose to grind the stone. After all, no one knew whether or not there were any jades inside. If they cut it up, it would be bad.

But Lithologist couldn't be bothered to explain to a rookie like Ye Xuan.

"Go ahead." Ignoring the attitude of the Lithologist, Ye Xuan immediately spoke up.

"Are you sure you want to cut it?" Ouyang Xun looked at the price of the ore, "This stone is worth fifty thousand. If you lose, not only will you have to compensate me with two million, you will also have to pay with the stone, please do not pay me with this stone!"

Ye Xuan did not respond to Ouyang Xun, and indicated for Lithologist to take action.

Under the everyone's wide-eyed stares, Lithologist raised his stone unraveled blade and with a * Ka-cha * sound, he cut the stone in half.

Ouyang Xun could not wait and went up to take a look. There was nothing inside.

"Haha, Ye Xuan, you lost the first time!" Ouyang Xun immediately laughed complacently.

Seeing this, Ding Qiang's mouth curved up in a smile as he looked at Ye Xuan with disdain.

This kid, sure enough, had slapped his face to make it look fat!

In Zhang Min's eyes, she could not hide her disappointment. It seemed that Ye Xuan's luck was not as good as he said it to be.

Walking to Ye Xuan's side, Zhang Min comforted him: "Ye Xuan, forget it, don't keep gambling. This kind of gambling, you lose a lot more than you do anyway."

Ye Xuan stood there expressionlessly, and did not speak a single word.

"What is it? Ye Xuan, you don't dare to bet anymore? Can't even afford to lose two million? " Ouyang Xun pretended to be surprised, but her tone was full of ridicule.

Ye Xuan shook his head, looked at Zhang Min and said: "It's alright, I will continue to pick." After pausing for a moment, he turned to Ouyang Xun and said, "I'll owe two million first. Once my second piece is out of the jade, I can immediately cancel it out."

The current him really didn't have two million on his card. After buying the house and car, he only had one million left.

Ouyang Xun was instantly angered and sneered: "What, you really don't have two million? Then why the f * ck are you still acting tough with laozi! "

Everyone looked at Ye Xuan as if he was a fool, all of them started to discuss with faces full of contempt.

"I can help him pay it back." Zhang Min directly answered on Ye Xuan's behalf.

Ding Qiang who had been observing coldly from the side finally could not hold it in anymore. He opened his mouth and said: "Zhang Min, this kind of trash who relies on women whenever she wants, do you really like him? "Don't go with him later, I'll treat you tonight. How about it?"

Seeing that Ye Xuan had made a fool of himself, Ding Qiang immediately added insult to injury. He had coveted for Zhang Min for a long time, so he would definitely seize this opportunity.

"I'm sorry, I'm not familiar with you." Zhang Min's face was cold, as though he was completely ignoring Ding Qiang, causing the other party to turn green in anger.

"Zhang Min, thank you, but I don't need you to return the favor." Ye Xuan gratefully looked at Zhang Min, and then said to Ouyang Xun, "Ouyang Xun, last time you personally saw me open the Imperial Green, are you still afraid that I really don't have any money?"

Ouyang Xun thought for a moment, then answered loudly: "Okay, I'll give you one more chance. If you still can't open the jade, then you will have to compensate me with 4 million!"

Ye Xuan's expression was calm as he lowered his head slightly in front of a pile of ores. No one could see the deep meaning that flashed in his eyes.

In reality, Ye Xuan had already seen clearly which of the stone in front of him contained the jade.

It was just that he did not want to immediately pick out the jade stones from the start, causing people to suspect him. After all, there were a lot of people here, especially Ding Qiang who was Lu Zi'ang's subordinate.

Because he had encountered danger a few times before, Ye Xuan had to be even more cautious now. He couldn't pick ores from the rocks every single time, and it wouldn't be good if someone was eyeing him covetously.

But no matter what, Ye Xuan would make Ouyang Xun pay a painful price.

With a flash of his mind, Ye Xuan casually picked up a rock, and gave it to Lithologist.

This rock was picked out from the cheapest pile, and was only priced at 5,000 yuan. When everyone saw it, they couldn't help but look down on Ye Xuan.

But for such a cheap stone, wouldn't the chances of winning be even lower?

"What an idiot!" Ouyang Xun was beaming with joy, and couldn't help but hug his female companion and kiss him.

Lithologist could not be bothered to ask Ye Xuan anymore, he immediately raised his blade and was about to cut down.

"Wait!" Ye Xuan immediately called for them to stop.

What a joke! Ye Xuan had already seen through the stone before, there was a fist sized emerald hidden inside, if he were to cut it down like that, it would be crippled.

Although the chopped jade could also be sold for money, its value would be greatly reduced by at least half.

"What for?" Lithologist glanced at Ye Xuan and felt displeased when he was interrupted.

Ye Xuan said: "This stone needs to be grinded, it cannot be cut."

Lithologist frowned upon hearing this, this was just the cheapest piece of trash, it was full of holes on the surface and did not look good at all.

It was just a customer's request, so Lithologist could only restrain himself from saying anything, and only ruthlessly look down on Ye Xuan in his heart.

"Ye Xuan, I feel that the probability of this stone giving out jade is very low, do you want to consider it again?" Zhang Min could not bear to see this, Ye Xuan had chosen too randomly.

Ding Qiang said coldly: "Since you've chosen, you're not allowed to change it. If you want to change it, then it'll be considered as your loss this time!"

Zhang Min glared at Ding Qiang fiercely, and could only silently worry for Ye Xuan.

Ye Xuan's face was calm as he watched Lithologist begin to wield his blade.

The grindstone required much longer time than cutting a rock. Even after four or five minutes, there was still no hint of green.

At this time, even the Lithologist was getting impatient.

But after a dozen or so seconds, Lithologist's expression suddenly changed, and he immediately lowered his head to look at the stone in his hand with more confidence.

It really did give out jade!

The surrounding crowd immediately burst into an uproar.

Ouyang Xun's face instantly sunk, he never thought that Ye Xuan's luck would be so good, picking out the second piece of jade.

If this was the case, then Ouyang Xun would suffer a loss. After all, not only did the two million from before get canceled, he would also have to pay for this piece of jade.

The corner of her eyes twitched, Ouyang Xun suppressed the displeasure in her heart. She didn't really care about this little bit of money.

Moreover, with this piece of green, the chances of winning the prize would be even lower. As long as he continued gambling, the one who would lose would definitely be the other party.

"Ye Xuan, congratulations!" Seeing that it was an emerald, Zhang Min's face finally turned happy.

When Ding Qiang saw this, his originally ashen face immediately turned black. With a cold snort, he waited to see the "good show" at the back.

Before the ore had completely worn away, a middle-aged man among the spectators walked out and said, "Sir, how about 100,000 yuan for this piece of ore?"

"I'll pay one hundred and fifty thousand, I can transfer the money to you right now. Sell it to me!" Another spectator said.

These old men who often gambled with stones all had sharp eyes. With a single glance, they could tell that this piece of ore was not small.

Ye Xuan immediately shook his head and rejected: "I'm sorry, I don't want to sell it."

Although he had only just touched the stone, Ye Xuan was not a complete noob. A fist-sized jade was at least worth a few hundred thousand yuan, and taking it away with a hundred thousand yuan was something that Ye Xuan would never agree to.

"Master, please continue to grind."

Lithologist did not dare delay this time and continued to grind the stones.

The surrounding people couldn't help but hold their breaths. They wanted to see how much jade this unremarkable stone would eventually produce.

After about ten or so minutes, when Lithologist held the jade that had been washed thoroughly clean, he looked at Ye Xuan with a strange gaze.

The cheapest stone had actually produced a piece of jade the size of a fist. It was truly a rare occurrence.

Under everyone's astonished eyes, Ye Xuan smiled and said to Zhang Min: "Can I ask you to help me with this jade?

Zhang Min and Ye Xuan looked at each other for a moment before they both nodded their heads in agreement without the slightest hesitation.

"Humph!" Ye Xuan, are you happy too early? " Ouyang Xun's eyes were about to ignite into flames, she could not hold back and shouted, "Continue to choose, don't buy me any more time, or do you not dare to continue?"

The piece of jade that was offered by his family's stone was only five to six hundred thousand, and the probability was extremely low. Ouyang Xun believed that with every piece that Ye Xuan chose, she would be given two million.

"So what? Who's afraid of who?" Ye Xuan bluntly replied.

Zhang Min initially wanted to let Ye Xuan see the good show so she stopped him, but it was not good to stop him now. Although she was worried in her heart, there was actually a trace of anticipation hidden within.

For some reason, Zhang Min chose to believe in Ye Xuan.
