Chapter 34 Blood Jade
Chapter 34 Blood Jade
Shelly looked at Joseph worriedly and said, "Joseph, maybe you should stop gambling with him?"
Gavin also nodded in agreement. "Shelly is right. There's still time to regret now."
Joseph's eyes turned red as he stared at Atlas' back with a ferocious expression. "No, I don't believe
he's really that good. I'll bet to the end!"
Joseph strode to the stage and snarled, "Open it!"
There was only one professional worker for cutting stones. Atlas chose first and lined up in front.
The nearly fifty-year-old man glanced at the rough stone that Atlas had chosen, a look of contempt
flashing across his face.
After so many years, he had a certain understanding of rough stone. The rough stone that Atlas chose
were nothing more than a piece of crap in his eyes.
Therefore, when he started, he cut it with a knife instead of carefully polishing it.
Atlas, who had been quiet throughout the auction, suddenly reminded him, "Don't cut it like that. Polish
it carefully."
The man stole a glance at Atlas and muttered in disdain, "It's just a crap. Why need to be so careful?"
However, he could not go against the customer, so he had to start polishing.
Standing next to Atlas, Ruben said expectantly, "Atlas, is there a top-grade gem in this one you
picked?"
Ruben also felt that the rough stone Atlas chose was too ordinary, but he just trusted in Atlas no matter
what now.
Ruben felt that as long as it was chosen by Atlas, it must be the best.
In fact, Atlas was not sure. He just felt that the fluctuation of energy within this rough stone was
different from others.
"Let's take a look!" Atlas said.
Joseph and the others watched nervously as the rough stone were polished. They kept praying in their
hearts, "Fail, fail, fail!"
As if he had heard Joseph 's thoughts, half of the rough stone had been polished in the blink of an eye.
Dust flew everywhere, but there was still no green.
Joseph clenched his fists and said excitedly, "It's over. It's over! This is trash. He'll definitely lose!"
Gavin also said excitedly, "The rough stone is half polished, but there is no green. That loser is
doomed!" NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
Evelyn looked at Atlas worriedly and found that he was still sitting in his seat with a calm face, as if he
was sure to win.
"Is he so confident in himself? Or is he just pretending?"
Viviana looked indifferent. Seeing that Atlas was about to lose, she felt a tiny bit of joy.
"Atlas, if you lose, you'll have to kowtow to Joseph and beg for mercy. See how you're gonna keep that
smug smile on your face!" she thought to herself
As the rough stone continued to be polished, the grinding master became impatient. He looked at Atlas
and said, "According to my previous experience, this one is pretty much useless. It's just a waste of
time to continue polishing."
Atlas said expressionlessly, "Do your job."
The master had no choice but to continue polishing. "Humph, when I grind the rough stone into powder,
you will give up!"
Hearing the man's words, Joseph looked at Atlas ecstatically, "I seldom see that the cutter has taken
the initiative to persuade customers to give up the polishing. This is a piece of trash. You'll definitely
lose. "
Atlas ignored Joseph and quietly looked at the stone. It should appear soon.
As expected, the cutter let out a cry of surprise and slowed down a little.
That piece of rough stone still didn't reveal any green color, but a tint of red appeared.
Joseph's heart skipped a beat. Suddenly, he had a bad feeling.
Then, more and more red, the same color as blood, and the grinding master became more careful. He
even gave up the machine and continued to polish with brush.
The grinding master's face became more and more excited. He couldn't help but say to the host, "This
may not be Imperial Green, but it is very likely to be another kind of top-grade gem!"
When the egg-sized red gem appeared in front of everyone, some people who knew what it was
immediately recognized it.
"This is the Blood Jade from the Mie Tribe!"
"Blood jade! Are you sure? Last time, a necklace made of nail-sized Blood Jade was sold at a sky-high
price of 150 million at the international auction!"
"How much can such a big Blood Jade be sold for?"
"According to the market price, it is about 400 million. But so far, there has never been such a large
piece of Blood Jade in the world, so the value of this one is immeasurable!"
The cutter held the Blood Jade with both hands and handed it to Atlas in person. He bowed deeply to
Atlas and sincerely apologized, "Sir, I was blind and did not recognize the real treasure. If you had not
insisted, I would have missed a rare gem!"
Atlas took the Blood Jade and replied, "It's alright."
The host announced excitedly, "Congratulations, sir. You sure have sharp eyes for stones. You've
picked out a piece of top-class Blood Jade from the ordinary stones outside!"
Joseph was stunned and muttered to himself, "How is this possible?"
Gavin and Tobias were also in disbelief. He just so randomly picked out a priceless gem like that!
His luck was literally god-blessed!
Evelyn looked at Atlas with a beaming light in her eyes. "This is amazing. Who on earth is he?"
There were surprise, regret, and doubt in Viviana's eyes. But in general, there were more surprises.
After all, Atlas Lincoln had gotten this valuable gem and half of it was hers according to Marriage Law.
Although the Sinclair family did not have to worry about money, they were after all just an ordinary well-
off family. Suddenly, Viviana became a billionaire. It was a lie to say that she was not excited.
Even her attitude towards Atlas changed, but just a little bit. In her heart, Atlas was still a good-for-
nothing.
Atlas looked at Joseph and said lightly, "It's your turn!"
Joseph 's face darkened and his hands were trembling. He had almost lost the bet. It was nearly
impossible for him to get a best gem!
If that's the case, the owner of this stone gambling market would be so pissed.
However, Joseph roared in his heart, "Since he can do it, so can I! He's not the only lucky one!"
"Cut it!" Joseph shouted.
The cutter began to cut directly until the rough stone was cut into pieces, but there was no green.
"This is a piece of waste!" After the mistake just now, the cutter was being very care this time and
finally confirmed it.
The host looked at Joseph and announced regretfully, "Well, Mr. Lincoln won this gamble!"
Joseph suddenly collapsed on the chair, his face like ashen. He muttered to himself, "Why? Why?"
Ruben immediately pointed at Joseph and yelled proudly, "Joseph, you lost! Hurry up and kowtow to
Atlas and beg for mercy!"
Many people around, with their arms folded, were waiting for a good show.
Gavin and Tobias looked gloomy. Just now, Joseph had made a bet with Atlas in front of everyone, so it
was hard for him to regret.
Gavin anxiously asked Tobias for help, "Mr. Morrison, please help Joseph!"
"Alas, Joseph is too impulsive this time!" Tobias sighed and closed his eyes helplessly. He could do
nothing now.
Joseph suddenly had a sinister grin on his face. "You want me to kowtow to a loser and beg for mercy?
In your dreams!"
