"Kid, don't mislead my daughter here!"
Amy's father looked at Henry with great
dissatisfaction. In his opinion, this was a
brainless person. He just lost three million
yuan, but now he would make his daughter
lose money. Five hundred thousand yuan
was enough for him to solve a big debt.
"400,000 for the second time!" The old
man on the stage said again.
There was a trace of struggle in Amy's
eyes. She took a deep breath and made a
decision. "500,000!"
"Amy Zhang, you are crazy!" Amy's father
widened his eyes.
"Dad, just let me do it this time. It's right.
Everything is good. If I am really wrong, I
will accept my fate." Amy's eyes were a
little red.
Karl sneered, "Listen to this idiot's words,
you are destined to make a mistake!"
Looking at his daughter's appearance,
Amy's father opened his mouth and
wanted to say something, but he couldn't
speak. He also knew that his daughter
didn't want to marry Karl at all. But she was
doing it for her family.
On the stage, the old man glanced around
the stage. "500,000 yuan. Do we have a
higher price?"
"500,000 for the first time!"
The old man's words clearly reached
everyone's ears through the microphone.
Amy was very worried. If someone raised
the price again, she really had no way to
deal with it.
"500,000 for the second time!" The old
man raised the auction hammer in his
hand, giving people a sense of urgency.
Under the stage, there was still no one
making a sound.
500,000 for the third time!" The old man
knocked heavily with his hammer, making a
muffled sound.
Hearing the sound of the hammer hitting
the table, Amy was finally relieved. This
stone was finally bought by herself.
However, as soon as Amy's heartbeat
slowed down, it began raising again. Next,
it was time to decide her fate. She did not
want to take this stone. Instead, she asked
people to open it on the spot.
If she could find something valuable inside,
there was still room for her to resist. If she
really couldn't find anything, she would
accept her fate.
There was only one Emperor Stone left at
the auction. Amy did not pay attention to it
anymore. All her attention was on the
stone she bought.
A staff, with professional tools, came to
Amy's place to cut the stone for her.
"Madam, brush or cut?" the staff asked.
"Brush." Amy stared at the stone with a
nervous face.
The staff nodded, picked up professional
tools, and rubbed them on the surface of
the stone.
Amy's father and the people sitting around
all looked at the staff's movements at this
moment. The stone-cutting every time was
very curious.
As the staff moved, the green surface of
the stone became more and more obvious.
Oh my God, was this the right bet? Look
at the colour, it might be the whole jade!"
"How much will it cost to buy such a large
piece of jade? At least ten million?"
It's hard to say. You still have to look at
the colour itself. But even if the colour was
the worst, you'll still earn at least four or
five million yuan!"
The voice of the onlookers rang out.
Amy's face gradually showed joy. "If I
could really get four or five million yuan,
no! Three million yuan! Only three million
yuan, I can completely turn over. Although
my life would not be as good as before,
absolutely wouldn't need to marry Karl."
Amy's father's face was full of tension.
There was already dense sweat on his
forehead.
The staff wiped the stone thoroughly, and
then picked up the flashlight, constantly
putting the light on the stone. If the light
could penetrate the whole stone, then it
was sure that this was an entire piece of
jade, but when the light hit the surface,
there was no reaction at all.
Such a scene made Amy feel scared.
"Madam, this need to be cut." The staff put
away the flashlight and said.
"Cut?" Listening to the staff member's
words, Amy's heart that had just been filled
with hope skipped a beat. As if a basin of
cold water was poured from head to toe,
all the hope was completely extinguished.
"Then.. Cut it."
After getting Amy's permission, the staff
picked up the tool and cut it down. When
the blade cut off the surface of the green,
what they saw inside was a black stone,
which meant that the stone was only
wrapped by a layer of green on the
surface.
"Isn't.. it too reversed? I thought that there
was a whole piece of jade, but how could it
be like this?"
"Ah, what a pity."
When the onlookers saw that the inside of
the green jade was just an ordinary stone,
they all shook their heads. It seemed that
this was a piece of waste.
Karl sneered. "Amy Zhang, l've told you
long ago that you'll suffer a loss if you
listen to this idiot! 500,000 yuan, humph!"
When Karl spoke, a hint of gloating
appeared in his eyes. He absolutely did not
want to see Amy making money. If Amy
really made money, how could he make her
be his wife?
There was a deep sense of loss in Amy's
father's eyes. He shook his head silently
and sighed secretly.
Amy looked at the scene in front of her and
felt pain in her heart. Everything went dark
and she almost fell down. This was her
only hope.
Henry sat by the side and looked at the
staff's movements. He was not surprised
at all. He had already seen that this stone
was only green on the surface. The real
treasure was inside the stone.
The staff slowly cut the whole stone. When
all the green colour on the surface was cut
off by him, there was only a normal stone
with a length and width of about ten
centimetres. If it was sold like this, it could
be sold for 20,000 to 30,000 yuan.
The onlookers shook their heads one after
another. It seemed that this girl's 500,000
yuan was gone.
Amy stared at the stone. There was no
hope at all. She did not blame Henry. After
all, no one could say that she would make
money by gambling on stones. Her
brother-in-law just gave her ideas. She
was the one who made the decision.
"Madam, do you want to continue cutting?"
The staff asked again.
"Yes," Amy said. She had completely lost
all hope, and her voice sounded weak.
The staff nodded and cut it down.
However, his hand stopped when he had
just cut less than half a centimetre. Such a
subtle action made Amy's heart, which had
been completely dead, rise again.
What did this mean? It meant that there
was something in this stone!
"Could it be that something else is inside?"
"Impossible! Green inside the green?"
"If it's green inside the green, it's probably
more valuable than a big piece of jade.
Generally speaking, green inside the green
is the best!"
The pause of the staff once again attracted
the attention of the people around.
The staff put down the knife, picked up
