Leon and the others arrived at the unpolished jadeite area that was packed with over a hundred customers that were participating in rock gambling.There were a few professional jadeite traders amongst them who would offer a small fortune to buy any high-quality jadeite customers managed to find.Leon scowled when he saw the tremendous amount of rocks before him.Though he could detect the energy inside jadeites with his spiritual energy, there were tens of thousands of rocks and he would collapse from exhaustion if he attempted to check each one of them.Thankfully, he looked for jadeite that could be used for a statue, so he only needed to check the bigger ones.His power grew since he first participated in rock gambling, so he was confident that he could find a suitable piece from the pile."Penny, let's go pick a few high-end rocks!" Andy said excitedly.He desperately wanted to find a great piece of jadeite before Leon; not bothering with the low-class and middle-class rocks
"Leon, if you want jadeite of high quality, we should be trying our luck in the high-end area! Why are you dragging me here to the low-end area?" Iris was puzzled by his behavior."The rocks there don't always contain great jadeites and there's a chance the rock here contains what we are looking for. Anyways, since we are trying our luck either way, let's start here," Leon said casually. He could not explain how he detected the energy of the rock with his spiritual energy, so he simply made up an excuse."But," She muttered hesitantly."Come on. Let's go! Maybe we'll get lucky!" Leon smiled, before placing his hand on each of the bigger rocks.There were tens of thousands of rocks and he specifically picked out the ones of bigger sizes to check, or he would run himself thin before he found the one that he was looking for.Meanwhile, Penny and Andy spotted Leon in the area where the lower-class rocks were displayed and were both shocked."Is he crazy or something? If he wants high
"This is the one you want? Are you sure?" Iris studied the rock and Leon's expression in disbelief.The surface of the rock was rugged, rough, and filled with cracks; even an amateur like her could tell that it was merely a rock and Leon would only humiliate himself for picking it."Yeah. I'm sure!" Leon nodded and took Iris's hand, before leaving the low-end area.Meanwhile, Andy already picked three rocks from the high-end area.As one of the descendants of wealthy families, he was rather experienced in rock gambling and he selected three rocks with extremely smooth surfaces with no visible cracks."This young man has a sharp sense!"The professional rock gamblers around him turned to look at Andy with approval.Rock gambling relied heavily on instinct and luck and since Andy had the instinct, he might be able to end up with cream-clear jadeite with some luck."Thank you, everyone! I just know a thing or two!" Andy smirked smugly.Just then, Leon picked up his stone and was
"Clear jadeite? Keep dreaming!" Andy and the other customers burst out laughing."This kid takes this place as a playground, doesn't he?""How dare he says that he's going to get clear jadeites from a rock like that? What a joke!""Yeah! He should consider himself lucky even if he manages to get any jadeite at all. He can't get clear jadeite with that rock!"...The world of rock gambling was complicated and was filled with amateurs who wished to become rich overnight by gambling on rocks at a low cost, so the others naturally assumed that Loen was one of them."Leon, it's not that easy to get clear jadeites! Maybe you should do as Andy did and get a few rocks from the high-end area instead. That way, you'll have a higher chance of getting a piece of high-quality jadeite!" Penny said while the others mocked Leon.She saw how easy it was for Leon to spend over 50 million and knew that Leon was not short of money, so she was clueless as to why Leon would insist on gambling on a low
After payment, Andy handed the rocks he selected to the staff for cutting.The other gamblers' interest was piqued and gathered around to see what Andy and Leon selected.Naturally, none of them expected Leon to find any high-quality jadeite with the rock he picked, so they mainly gathered around for Andy's rocks."We're going to cut the first one!" The staff announced and cut into the first rock, which started to show a shade of light green that was almost completely transparent."It's out!""I think it's flower-green!"...The crowd cheered excitedly.Flower-green jadeites were extremely rare and were classified as high-quality jadeites before of it. With an equal value to the cloudy-clear jadeites, flower-green jadeites only cost slightly less than cream-clear and clear jadeites."What a shame!""The color of this piece of jade isn't deep enough and the texture isn't smooth enough!""Yeah! If it is of higher quality, it would be worth a fortune for its size!"...The ot
"Andy, you're brilliant!" Penny beamed and complimented Andy on his success.Though the money did not mean much to Penny or Andy, it was a display of Andy's senses that he managed to find such high-quality jadeite from all the rocks available."Of course! There are two rocks left and maybe they will give me jadeite of even higher quality!" Andy said smugly as his confidence was boosted.More attention was drawn to the area and almost every single customer in the shop gathered around them."This young man is quite sharp!""Yeah! If he can get flower-green on his first try, he might just get cream-clear or even clear jadeites next!""Clear jadeites? I don't think so, but there's still a great chance that he will get cream-clear jadeite!"...The others were all impressed by Andy's instinct and luck.A flower-green jadeite was rare but was far from comparable to cream-clear and clear ones.Clear jadeites were the best quality of jadeite and even the top-class Imperial Green belo
"I think that's cloudy-clear, not cream-clear."A few other more seasoned rock gamblers scanned the rock intently.The staff just started cutting into it, so the inside of the rock was not completely exposed. Since cloudy-clears and cream-clears were rather similar, no one could tell which one it was. However, they could tell that there was a lack of transparency, so there was a high chance that it was a piece of cloudy-clear jadeite.Under the watchful eyes of every customer, the staff continued to cut into the rock."It's a piece of cloudy-clear jadeite!"...The crowd stirred.Apart from a few of the more experienced customers, even others could tell that it was a cloudy-clear jadeite, not a cream-clear. Though the two were similar in their names, the cloudy-clear was classified as high-quality jadeite, while the cream-clear was considered top-quality jadeite."It's just a piece of cloudy-clear!""What a shame!"The smile on Andy's face froze.Like flower-greens, cloudy-c
"Andy, it's normal to fail from time to time. Don't beat yourself up over it! Besides, you should still consider yourself talented for finding a piece of rock that contained flower-green! We can just buy a few more high-end rocks to try our luck and we might just get a piece of top-quality jadeite!" Penny consoled him when she spotted the gloomy look on his face."Yeah. You're right!" Andy's spirit was instantly lifted.Though he spent 345 thousand on the three high-end rocks he selected, he managed to sell the flower-green at 600 thousand, so he technically made a profit from it. Though it was not a big amount to him, he still felt better that he did not waste his money."Come on, let's go pick a few more rocks," Penny grabbed Andy by the arm."There’s no hurry! Leon was really confident that the low-end rock he picked contained a piece of top-quality jadeite. I would like to see if that's true!" Andy said and turned to Loen with a sneer. "Leon, all the rocks I've picked have been
