Chapter 435

Henry once dominated the gambling circle

around South Province. He knew very well

that the people there were very concerned

about geomancy. There were only a few

stones in the entire South Province, which

were extremely expensive. Even if it

couldn't be sold, it would be displayed in

the shop. Now that this stone was here at

Jenny's auction, it must be deliberately

done by Stone King.

Even Stone King dared not open this stone

The gambling industry was very

superstitious. For example, Stone King,

even if he knew that there were some

jades in some stones, he would not cut

them open. In their eyes, people's luck was

limited, and one should not open too many

stones during his lifetime. Regarding this

type of stone, opening one during entire

life was more than enough.

Looking at the stone on the stage, Henry

was about to bid when he heard a voice

coming from the private room on the

second floor.

"50,000!"

50,000!

The bidding price from the second-floor

private room caused an uproar among the

crowd.

Did he want to spend 50,000 buying this

stone? He must be crazy!

Another voice came from the first floor

before the shout for 50,000 from the

second floor had died down.

"100,000."

As soon as the voice was heard, everyone

in the hall turned to look at the speaker.

Amy looked at Henry in surprise. "Brother-

in-law, are you going to spend 100,000 to

buy this jade stone?"

"Yes." Henry nodded. "But I don't think

100,000 yuan will be enough."

Henry had been to the South Province's

stone-gambling world, so he knew that

some people, in order to win a prize, they

would offer a lot of money to open the

moon surrounded by the stars. Just now,

the person on the second floor directly

offered a price of 50,000 yuan. It should

be such a person.

The corners of Karl's mouth curled up and

he said without any scruple, "ldiot, how

can you teach others to gamble on stones

after buying such a piece of waste of

100,000 yuan?"

Henry did not pay attention to Karl. He

would deal with this guy after getting that

stone. His attention was now focused on

the stone on the stage

After Henry bid 100,000 yuan, the people

on the second floor were silent for a few

seconds. "Two hundred thousand."

"Two hundred thousand!" A man

downstairs opened his mouth wide. "Is he

crazy? How could he buy such a stone for

two hundred thousand?"

"500,000 yuan," Henry said lightly.

A jade stone with the starting price of one

yuan rose to five hundred thousand yuan in

just four bids! Everyone felt that their

minds are about to explode. Some people

who had a million yuan on their accounts

had felt that they had stepped into the

ranks of the rich, but now they knew that

they were poor.

"500,000 yuan? Do you have that much

money? You have to pay for the legal

penalty if you don't have money to pay!"

Karl snorted disdainfully. He looked at

Henry's clothes, and he didn't seem to be a

person who could afford 500,000 yuan.

After Henry offered a price of five hundred

thousand yuan, Amy's father glanced at

Henry a few more times.

"One million yuan!" The man on the second

floor said again, and at the same time, he

added, "Brother, it's just a piece of jade

stone. Let's make a deal. There's no need

to fight to the death, right?"

There was a semi-transparent glass in the

private room on the second floor. The

people in the lobby couldn't see the person

inside, but judging from his tone, although

the price was doubled, he was not as

relaxed as before. After all, no one would

feel nothing when they bought such a

small piece of stone with one million yuan.

"Two million." Henry leaned against the

seat and shouted out this number.

When the crowd heard Henry's bid, they

didn't know what to say. Just now when

they were bidding on the stones, one stone

was sold for tens of thousands of yuans,

another for one hundred thousand yuan.

They also had a kind of audacity to spend

a lot of money. But now compared with

Henry, they were just small shots playing

around.

The second floor said, "Dude, do you really

want to fight with me to the end?"

Listening to this voice, Henry didn't even

look at the second floor, still leaning

against the seat.

"Sir, your price is two million yuan. Is there

anyone higher?" The old man on the stage

asked loudly, with a smile on his face.

"Two million once." The old man shouted

and looked around. He waited for a few

seconds, but no one said anything. "Two

million twice."

"2.20million!" There was another voice on

the second floor.

Now that he was bidding, he was no longer

as confident as he was just now.

3 million!" Henry didn't hesitate and

directly offered a price.

Two young people, a man and a woman,

were sitting in the private room on the

second floor.

"Brother, he went too far. Does he want to

mess with us? want to teach him a

lesson!" The young woman said. She

looked about 23 or 24 years old. She was

tall and had long black hair. Her features

were delicate and lovely.

When the woman was talking, she raised

her small fist and inadvertently revealed

the arrow hidden in her sleeve.

The young man frowned. "Check your

attitude, we are not at home. Also, hide the

things in your sleeve. These things are

illegal!"

"Humph, this is specially given to me for

self-protection. Who can blame me?"

The young man walked to the front of the

glass and looked at the hall below. "Let's

wait and see. Even if he gets it, it will be

useless to him. We can buy it later."

The young man could not keep up with the

price of three million yuan. The jade stone

was sold to Henry.

The staff handed the stone to Henry on the

spot and brought professional tools at the

same time. Everyone looked at Henry and

wanted to see what he could cut out.

Henry didn't let everyone down, and he

began to cut.

One-third of stone was cut off directly. The

onlookers felt pain in their hearts. This cut

cost one million yuan. Looking at his was of

cutting, he didn't feel distressed at all.

What should he do if the treasure inside

was destroyed?

Henry cut from top to bottom, and there

was no obstacle, which proved that

nothing was nothing inside.

"He's simply a fool. He bought such a thing

with three million yuan, and there is

nothing inside." Karl said.

Henry frowned.

When others saw Henry's expression, they

all understood. It seemed that this time, his

money was wasted.

Henry chopped again and cut off a layer of

the surface, but he still didn't see anything.

He frowned even more tightly.

Henry frowned like this, not because he

didn't cut anything as everyone thought.

On the contrary, Henry felt something

unusual about this stone. That kind of

thing gave him the feeling that it was like...

Fire Crystal!

Henry cut for the third time. This time, he

didn't cut as smoothly as before. He cut

half-way through, and he encountered an

obstacle.

"There is something inside?" There was a

voice in the crowd.

"The knife stopped. It seems that

something is inside. It must be a treasure."

"This time, he has earned a lot!"

"Not necessarily. Don't forget that the cost

of this stone was three million yuan. Now

half of it has been cut off. Even if the jade

is of the best quality, how much is it

worth?" The crowd was discussing while

watching Henry's action. They were eager

to know what could be cut out from it.
