"This time, the jade material alone is estimated to be worth a few million. If I find some masters to carve it, the value will probably go up to ten million.”
Du Bin was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth. He patted Zhang Mo's shoulder fiercely and said,"Thanks to you, the Sun family's matter won't be so painful. With tens of millions of liquid funds out of thin air, the Du family can be saved.”
Not only Du Bin, even Du Wanrou looked at Zhang Mo with admiration.
Imagine, when you were seriously ill, this man appeared by your side. Not only did he save you, but he also saved your family. What would you think?
"Tell me, how should I thank you?”
"Uncle Du, you were the one who bought this stone after all. You're lucky. What does it have to do with me?”Zhang Mo said humbly.
"Don't say those polite words. How about this? Today, at Xu Jin's place, you can pick a few more stones and squeeze them all on your Uncle Du.”
Du Bin couldn't think of any way to thank him at the moment, so he simply let Zhang Mo play with those stones.
"Alright then." Zhang Mo wanted to refuse, but on second thought, he decided to pick a few stones.
There were about five to six piles of gambling stones in Xu Jin's gambling den. The prices were different depending on the pit.
Other than the people who came to gamble on stones, there were also some senior stone gambling experts who were here to provide technical support to the gamblers.
To put it bluntly, they relied on 1% of their years of experience and 99% of their luck. No one could see the inside of the stone. They were all gambling.
However, for Zhang Mo, he had to choose carefully and purchase the goods.
"Zhang Mo, right? Are you interested in betting with me?”
Just as Zhang Mo was carefully selecting the stones, Pan Yi came out and provoked him.
"I don't know how to gamble on stones, I'm just playing around.”Zhang Mo couldn't be bothered to waste his time with such a person and rejected him directly.
"You don't know how to gamble stones? I saw that you were very experienced in opening the stone just now. Why, are you not giving me face?”Pan Yi obviously didn't want to let Zhang Mo off so easily, so he continued to ask.
"Who are you? Do I have to give you face? He could either go to the side or stand at the side obediently and not speak.”Zhang Mo was a little unhappy that someone had come to find trouble with him time and time again.
If he hadn't repeatedly reminded himself that this was a society governed by law and that he would be held legally responsible for making a move, he would have killed Pan Yi long ago.
In the immortal world, such people usually could not survive more than two sentences.
"You have to bet today, even if you don't want to.”Pan Yi felt embarrassed after being reprimanded like this. He completely tore off his hypocritical face and said fiercely.
"Who, who, who, what are you doing? There's no need to make such a fuss." There was such a huge commotion here that Du Bin and Xu Jin, who were at the side, obviously noticed it. As soon as they leaned over, they heard Pan Yi's words.
Pan Yi was quite famous in the stone gambling world. Zhang Mo had just revealed his proud talent. Xu Jin was not willing to offend him, so he intervened from the side.
"Boss Du, you were quite brave when you first opened the stone. Why are you so timid now?”Seeing that Zhang Mo wasn't going to take the hit, Pan Yi pointed his finger at Du Bin.
"Pan Yi, watch your language!”Du Bin wasn't a fool. Before meeting Zhang Mo, Pan Yi might have been useful, but after meeting Zhang Mo, Pan Yi was nothing.
"Since you want to bet, why don't you add some stakes?”Just as Du Bin was about to flare up, Zhang Mo said lazily from the side.
In fact, he could completely understand why Pan Yi did this. He felt that his dignity had been provoked and wanted to get back at him.
If it was an ordinary person, they might really be afraid, but he had kicked an iron plate today!
"What do you want to add?"
"It's very simple. Whoever loses will not touch stone gambling for the rest of their lives.”Zhang Mo didn't even look at Pan Yi. Instead, he sized up the stone in his hand.
"Let's bet then. I don't believe that a little brat like you can really beat me!”Pan Yi was completely blinded by anger at this time. He shook off his disciple who wanted to stop him and accepted the bet.
"Tell me, how do you want to bet?" Zhang Mo asked.
"Each person will pick three stones. After deducting the cost from the value of the jade stones, whoever has the highest net profit will win.”Pan Yi was clearly prepared for this, and he told him the rules without hesitation.
There was indeed nothing wrong with this rule. If there were only three stones, it was inevitable that some people would take the opportunity to pick the bigger stones. After considering the cost, the bigger the stone, the more expensive it would be. Perhaps the net profit would not be that high.
" Very reasonable. Let's begin." Zhang Mo nodded.
After Pan Yi heard the start, he rushed out and began to use his many years of experience to search for his target. His disciple also followed suit to fill in the gaps. On the other hand, Zhang Mo seemed very relaxed. He walked and stopped, picking up a stone from time to time to take a look.
Zhang Mo wasn't anxious, but Du Bin was.
"Little Zhang, are you confident that you can win? After all, it was not a joke to not be able to gamble on stones. Pan Yi had been in this industry for more than 30 years and had a lot of experience.”
"Don't worry, it's just a small matter." Zhang Mo waved his hand, signaling Du Bin not to be anxious. Then, he waved his hand and called Du Wanrou over to his side.
Du Wanrou, who was suddenly called out, looked confused, but she still obediently walked to Zhang Mo's side.
"What's wrong with Zhang Mo?"
"Can you help me pick one?"
"Me?" Du Wanrou pointed at herself, her face full of surprise. She waved her hands desperately, wanting to refuse.
"I don't know anything about this. What if I let you lose?”Du Wanrou wasn't being polite. If there was no bet, she would have just chosen one stone. This was related to whether Zhang Mo could gamble on stones in the future. She really didn't dare to take the blame.
"Don't have such a huge psychological burden. Just pick a random piece. I'm counting on my fingers today. Your luck is pretty good. Maybe I'll have to rely on you to win.”Zhang Mo pretended to pinch his fingers. Then, he patted Du Wanrou's shoulder and asked her to take a closer look at the pile of stones in front of her.
"You know how to read fortunes?" Du Wanrou's face was full of surprise. She had never known that Zhang Mo knew so many things, from pharmacology to face diagnosis, to antique stone gambling, to stone cutting, and now, he could even tell fortunes. Was there anything that this man in front of her did not know?
"I only know a little. Let's pick the stones." Zhang Mo stuck to Du Wanrou's back and began to teach her how to choose a stone and how to judge whether there was jade flesh by its texture and size.
Actually, Zhang Mo didn't know how to choose stones. He could clearly see it with his divine sense. As for the explanation, he could just brag.
The two of them were very close, so close that Zhang Mo could smell the fragrance coming from Du Wanrou's body.
Not far away, Du Bin saw the scene in front of him. Not only did he not stop it, he even nodded slightly and revealed a satisfied smile.
