"I said so before, Andy. You can't just rely on the appearance of the rock to make your judgment. The red jadeite on the surface doesn't look that great, but maybe there's a top-quality jadeite hidden inside! It's not completely impossible!" Leon said."Inside? You think that just because there's a faint shade of purple inside, you might find purple and even green, which makes it a Three-Colored Jadeite?" Andy questioned.The crowd stirred at his words."Is this another Three-Colored Jadeite again?""It's possible. Since there's red jadeite on the surface, the faint shade of purple may indicate that there's purple jadeite inside and if there's also a shade of green there, that would make it a piece of Three-Colored Jadeite!"...A few frequent customers started studying the rock.The color red, purple and green symbolized happiness, wealth, and longevity. Since this jadeite contained red and purple, it would be classified as a Three-Colored Jadeite if there was green jadeite hid
"Leon, did you hear that? You're not getting anything out of this rock! I thought that you have brilliant senses for finding a Four-Colored Jadeite. I guess I've overestimated you!" Andy smirked."You don't know that yet! Maybe I'll get lucky again!" Leon said casually.He had little to no knowledge about rock gambling and only chose the rock because of the pure energy he sensed from the core of it, so there was no way for him to tell if the jadeite inside would contain three different shades of colors or more."Seriously? You amateur! Do you know anything about jadeite at all? The quality of this red jadeite on the surface is so poor that what's inside can't be of high quality!" Andy burst into laughter.The quality of a piece of jadeite could be told by even just a part of it and if one part of the jadeite was of poor quality, the same could be assumed for the rest."I guess this kid doesn't know much about jadeites!""I think so! I thought that he was an expert in finding a Fo
"I see!"Penny's explanation resolved the questions in Leon and Iris's minds.Leon was confused as to why someone would compete with him over the rock that nobody seemed to see the value in. It dawned on him that Willie did so to annoy the Scammells and Penny and that he only became the target because he was with Penny."What do you think you are doing? Are you just doing this to get on my nerves?!" Penny glared daggers at Willie."So what if I am?" Willie smirked proudly.As Leon predicted, Willie only decided to compete against Leon because he was with Penny. After hearing what others said about the Four-Colored Jadeite Leon found, Willie noticed that Leon was talented and that he might be targeting the red jadeite for a reason. Hence, he decided to bid against Leon and take the opportunity to upset the Scammells."That's enough, Willie!" Andy roared.As Penny's fiancé, he would soon be a part of her family and could not stand idly by when Willie was bullying her."It's enoug
"Keep talking like you are my boss! What a joke! Come at me and let's see what you can do!" Leon scoffed at his threats.Both Penny and Andy were shocked by Leon's words.Andy thought of Leon as a redneck from a small city and looked down on him all along, yet Leon dared to challenge the future heir of the Libertons when even Andy cowered before such a powerful figure; he simply could not comprehend what gave Leon the courage to do such a thing."It's fine, Leon. Let's give up. The chance that there's a Three-Colored Jadeite is quite slim, so just let him have it," Penny said.Though she was the eldest daughter of the Scammells, she was a woman and could never become the heir, so she could not hold a candle to Willie in terms of physical strength and status.Since Leon came from a small city, she assumed that he was a mediocre martial artist at best and if Leon enraged Willie, she would not have the power to protect Leon."No way, Penny! I'm getting that rock one way or another!
"17 million!" Willie gritted out as he was forced to compete against Leon to the very end to preserve his pride, and he secretly hoped that Leon would give up at this point."21 million!" Leon said coldly."Why! Damn you!" Willie's expression darkened.21 million was an enormous amount even to him and he could not understand how Leon would have so much money.The crowd around them stirred."21 million? This kid must have too much money in his hands!""He has to be a fool!""Yeah! This jadeite is bound to be of lower quality and even if it contains three colors, it'll be worth 12 million at best, and he has been foolish enough to raise the price to 21 million!"...The people were all shocked and turned to look at Leon as though he was a fool.If Leon spent a million on the rock and it turned out to contain a piece of Three-Colored Jadeite, he might be able to make a few hundred of thousand in profit, yet he raised the price all the way to 21 million which would not be compens
"Leon, top-quality jades are one in a million, how could you get one so easily?! What's the point of making things hard for yourself?" Penny could not help but sigh and say.It was not just her, Andy was the same as well. Neither of them felt like that piece of stone would yield a top quality jade at all. It did not sound realistic!Of course, in the end, Iris still had some confidence in Leon.She knew that Leon opened an imperial green before. It was even an incredibly rare Four-Colored Jadeite!With Leon's eyes and his skills, Leon might actually be able to open a top-quality jade!However, 21 million was no small number. The jadestone in front of them was much smaller than the Four-Colored Jadeite from before. Even if Leon really did manage to get a clear or Three-Colored Jadeite, it might not make up the sum it was sold for!Leon did not care about the mockery he was getting from around him. He looked at Mister Vynall, "Mister Vynall, take my card! Open it up!""Yes, will d
"He's done for!""He got nothing at all!""This brat lost big time!"There was immediately a stir in the crowd.Three-Colored Jadeites were always rare. It was not easy to open one at all.They already expected that.However, Leon just spent such a huge sum on that jadestone, and could not even get one.They were quite shocked!"Leon, I already told you just now. The redness in the outer layer of that jadestone was just too dim. There's no way it would be top-quality jade. You refused to listen to me! Surely you believe me now?" Andy said with some amusement.He was still a little jealous that Leon managed to open a Four-Colored Jadeite earlier.Yet, Leeon refused to listen to his advice and lost a huge amount. He could not help but feel happy about it!Of course, it was not just him. Penny did not think that Leon would be able to get a top-quality jade either!However, she was not as happy about it as Andy. She just felt some pity for Leon. She felt pity that Leon lost suc
"Sir, why are you here?"Vynall was shocked at the man's appearance. He hurried over.The man was no one else but the eldest son of the ancient martial arts family, the Westwoods, Raphael Westwood. The shop they were in belonged to the Westwoods, and Raphael was usually in charge of it."I heard that someone opened an amazing Four-Colored Jadeite, so I came over to have a look," Raphael said calmly.He received the news when Leon spent over 43 million to buy eighteen clear accessories.After that, Leon just casually picked out a low-leveled jadestone and managed to get a rare Four-Colored Jadeite. It signified an incredibly good eye. It was better than most of the top-level experts they had!He was incredibly curious, so he hurried over, wanting to get to know the jade expert.However, the moment he arrived, he heard everyone mocking Leon for opening an incredibly bad jade. So, he could not resist stepping up."Raphael, what do you mean? Isn't this just a trash piece of jade?"
