Basically, a customer taking part in a jade bet would choose unopened rocks to bet on. They would make a profit if the piece of jade inside the rock turned out to be good or suffer a huge loss if it turned out to be a bust. Running into an event like that by chance, Wilbur thought he might as well give it a try. The shop owner welcomed him into the store warmly, leading Wilbur right to the back of the shop. The backyard was around three to four hundred square meters wide. It was filled with rocks of all shapes and sizes. These rocks were all tagged with different prices. The lowest prices started at around 100 thousand dollars and went all the way up to over five million dollars. There was a large number of people in the backyard looking around when he arrived. They all seemed to be pretty well-informed, murmuring amongst themselves over which rocks looked like a better choice. Wilbur, a complete outsider, did not see any difference in the rocks apart from their sizes. Ho

Wilbur was surprised to hear the name. What a coincidence! Just then, the shop owner and several guests there got a shock as well. Kenji had made quite a name for himself. The shop owner walked over, bowing to Kenji. "Mr. Lilith! It's an honor to have you in my shop." "Of course it is," Kenji said haughtily. The shop owner said, "However, I'm afraid that bidding has always been Octocharm Town's way of doing things." "I said we can do it your way, didn't I?" Kenji said coldly. The shop owner nodded with a smile, coming in front of Wilbur. "Sir, do you have any objection to this?" "No." Wilbur was just going to follow the rules as he did not care too much. Just then, the shop owner said, "Alright, then. Everyone here can act as a witness. Let the bidding begin." Everyone was excited, crowding over eagerly. After all, this hardly happened anymore. The crowd sat down, sipping their tea while they waited for the show to start. The shop owner looked around him before

The crowd gasped, and Kenji's anger boiled over as he slammed his fist down on the armrest of his chair. "Eight hundred thousand!" The crowd was stunned. Everyone knew that Kenji was flipping out. It was no longer about the rock. They then looked at Wilbur, curious to see what he would do next. Wilbur fell silent for a while, before flashing a smile. "You sure are generous, Mr. Lilith. The rock's yours." The crowd heaved a sigh of relief at last, even though they were less than satisfied with how things had turned out. It felt like they had tasted a scrumptious dish, but the portion was far too small. They could not help but feel a little dissatisfied. Some of the people who knew Kenji, however, were starting to worry for Wilbur on his behalf. Kenji was known for his nasty temper, and Wilbur might be getting into trouble after striking a nerve on him like that. Just then, Kenji sneered and took a sip of tea. The shop owner hurried to the middle of the room to call o

The rock that Wilbur was pointing to was just for decor. The crowd wondered what was going on in his mind, trying to buy something like that. How could a rock like that be worth anything at all? Even the shop owner was confused. "Young man, this is just a decor item. It's not a rock to bet on. You must be mistaken." Wilbur said. "Yes, but you sell rocks, don't you? This is a rock right here, so give me a price." "Uhm…" The shop owner was a little conflicted. He had never experienced anything like this before and was at a loss for how to respond. Kenji smiled all of a sudden. "What's this? Are you telling me that a rock like this could have a piece of jade in it, buddy?" "And what if it does?" Wilbur replied with a smile. The crowd shook their heads. Wilbur was truly getting out of hand here. If any random rock could have a piece of jade in it, the rocks in the rivers would be all gone. Kenji chuckled as he looked at Wilbur. "You seem pretty confident. Why don't we make

The crowd ran over, huddling around the cutting machine. The rock was cut into, and there was a glimmer of green coming from the inside. That was something that only could be seen in the finest of jade. The crowd gasped in awe. The staff member operating the cutting machine got a lot more careful. He flipped the rock over and resumed cutting into the rock much more slowly. Kenji's smile vanished from his face. He was unable to believe that there would be jade in a piece of rock like that. It was important to note that if this turned out to be a good piece of jade, it might even be an emerald jade. Emerald jade was considered to be the finest form of jade there was. A few minutes later, the rock had cracked open to reveal a walnut-sized piece of deep green, emerald jade. The crowd was left in awe at the sight of it. "That's an ice emerald jade." "No, I think it's frost emerald!" "Are you kidding me? That's glass emerald." The piece of jade had not been sanded d

Wilbur smiled, not saying anything. A while later, the shop owner passed the piece of imperial jade to Wilbur with both hands and a wistful expression on his face. "Congratulations, young man. You got a piece of imperial jade." Wilbur took the piece of jade and inspected it closely. The piece of jade had jagged edges and was a mossy green overall. It glinted in the sun, with its color changing slightly under the light. He channeled his spirit energy into the jade and found that the density was extremely high. Just what he had wanted. Wilbur let out a chuckle. "Thank you, sir." The shop owner was speechless, and Wilbur turned to look at Kenji. "I believe we had a bet with each other just now, didn't we?" Kenji's murderous expression turned into a grimace. He took out his checkbook, filled in the details, and passed it to the shop owner. "Don't worry, buddy. I'm a man of my word," Kenji said. The shop owner handed the check to Wilbur. Wilbur gave it a glance and put

Imperial jade was incredibly hard, and any other carving knife would hardly be able to make a dent in it. Yet as Wilbur picked up the knife, the blade glowed white as it was charged with a layer of spirit energy. He started out with the big carving knife, cutting the jade down into a teardrop shape before sanding the edges down. Then he picked out the smaller carving knife and began to carve a complicated pattern on one side of the teardrop. Every cut he made into the jade flashed with a spiritual glow. As he kept going, the pattern on the jade went from a series of symbols to a mysterious formation. The formation grew more and more complicated, and Wilbur's forehead began to bead with sweat. Three hours later, Wilbur finally made the last cut on the piece of jade. The formation on the jade lit up, emanating a white spiritual glow that filled the entire room. A few seconds later, the glow slowly faded as the formation on the jade disappeared as well. Wilbur let out

Faye was only wearing a slip dress with thin straps. The front of the dress was so low that it almost revealed her entire chest. It was clear that she was wearing nothing underneath. The dress was also extremely short, barely covering her thighs. She did not seem to be wearing any underwear, either. Wilbur was almost certain she was completely bare. Her exquisite features were enhanced with light makeup, and the dress left little to the imagination. She was making it almost impossible for Wilbur to resist. He turned away hurriedly, worried his nose might start bleeding if he stared any longer. That would be embarrassing. Faye swayed down the staircase. She took out a bottle of wine, then a bottle of champagne. She set both bottles down at the dining table and sat down across from Wilbur. She poured out two glasses, raising one of them. "To you, Boss." "No, today's your day. I have a gift for you." Wilbur took out the jade necklace and passed it to Faye. Faye gasped, s
