Chapter 100

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.

However, there were two things he had that gave him an advantage over the others-his spirit energy,

and skills.

He took a quick glance at the rocks, then took a seat on a nearby chair.

A server wearing long robes served him a cup of tea

The people who took part in jade bets were usually rather well-to-do, and the shop owner knew that

very well.

That was why the shop was well-furnished, and the service was top-notched as well.

Wilbur did not check out the rocks upon sitting down. Instead, he took out his phone and began to read

up on jade.

It was because he knew almost nothing about what he was getting into, thus he wanted to get a better

understanding.

Half an hour later, the backyard was packed with over 30 people.

The shop owner came out with a bright smile on his face as he waved at everyone.

The crowd greeted him back, save for Wilbur, who was still on his phone.

The shop owner was a man in his fifties with a surprising amount of gusto of spirit. He looked at the

crowd around him, then landed his gaze on Wilbur, who seemed to be grossly out of place.

He walked up to Wilbur with an outstretched hand and greeted him, “Young man, I haven’t seen you

here before!”

“Oh!” Wilbur raised his head and shook the shop owner’s hand with a smile. “It’s my first time here.”

The shop owner smiled and responded, “I see. Do let me know if there’s anything you need! I’ll do my

best to satisfy your

needs.”

Wilbur replied with a smile, “Of course. I’ll reach out to you if I have to.”

The owner smiled and nodded before turning away. Wilbur put his phone away as well, shifting his

attention to the rocks

At the same time, he channeled his spirit energy to penetrate the rocks.

According to the research he had just done, jade had a higher density than normal rocks.

Thus, he was using that theory in check which rock had a higher density. If his spirit energy was met

with a higher resistance, It meant that the rock had a higher chance of holding a good piece of jade.

Just like that, Wilbur spent over half an hour looking through all the rocks in the place. At last, he set

his sights on one particular rock.

Having done that, Wilbur took a closer look at it. It was around the size of a basketball, priced at 120

thousand dollars. It was a decent price.

At the same time, a few people had purchased their rocks and were having them cut open.

As they were cut open before everyone’s eyes, all of those rocks turned out to be duds.

The only one that contained a jade was only of average quality, barely covering the price paid for the

rock.

Wilbur saw an empty spot in the line and called out to the shop owner as he pointed at the rock he had

chosen earlier, “Sir, this one, please.

The shop owner hurried over. “Good choice, young man! I’ll get to it right away.”

Just then, another voice cut through the air, “Boss, I’ll take that piece.”

Wilbur turned to see a middle-aged man with a cigar in his mouth. On his arm was a beautiful young

woman.

The shop owner smiled awkwardly. “Uhm. Sirs, I’m afraid this will be quite a situation.”

“What’s the problem?” The middle-aged man frowned.

The shop owner hurried to say, “We have a rule here stating that if two people choose the same rock,

they’ll have to bid for it.”

“Ha! Sure thing! Do you think that I, Kenji Zane, would be afraid of a bid?” The middle-aged man

sneered.
