The Understated Dragon Lord novel Chapter 133

Chapter 133 Blood Jade 

“If you spent three million buying this stone from me, Andrew, then you’d be anything but a fool. If you refuse to pay three million, then you’re certainly a fool,” Daniel asserted, aware that Andrew would never buy the stone, which is why he deliberately made such a statement. His goal was to tease Andrew a little and enjoy watching h et his decision later. 

“Three million? I wouldn’t even pay three hundred bucks for that stone! I’d be a fool to buy it,” Andrew scoffed, responding just as Daniel had predicted. He indeed wasn’t willing to spend three million on a 

stone worth five million. 

Feigning disappointment, Daniel shook his head, “Too bad, Andrew. You could have made an easy two million plus.” 

“You country bumpkin, stop with the poor act. Just because it’s priced at fifty thousand doesn’t mean 

anything will come out of that worthless rock. No matter how much time you waste, it won’t change the 

fact that there’s nothing in it. So I suggest you save us all time and have the staff cut it open now!” 

“Andrew, I gave you the opportunity which you didn’t take. It’s a shame to watch it slip away right before your eyes. I can’t force you, Andrew, to spend three million to buy it.” 

Daniel picked up a marker and drew a small circle on the rock before passing it to the staff. “Make a small window right here where I’ve marked.” 

Henry chuckled at Daniel’s action, “Country boy, do you know what you’re doing? You’re having a window opened on a worthless rock, do you understand the cost and purpose of such a thing?” 

“Of course, I do.” 

Daniel grabbed Jessica’s LV purse, pulled out a stack of hundred–dollar bills, counted ten, and handed them to the worker. Usually, the tip for making a window–cutting a small hole in the stone–is about five hundred dollars. Daniel gave double that. 

The staff member accepted the tip and began meticulously cutting with the saw, skilled and professional 

at their job. 

Soon, the window was opened in the stone, and after a brief rinse with water, a vibrant blood–red color revealed itself to the audience. Unexpectedly, the stone contained jade, and not just any jade but Blood Jade, with a color so rich it resembled fresh blood. 

Blood Jade, while not the most expensive, was quite rare and typically fetched a high price. Everyone was curious; how could the country boy be so lucky? Picking out a stone with Blood Jade on his first try? 

Andrew did some research for the Jade Gambling event tonight and roughly understood this seemed to be Blood Jade, but that didn’t make him any less skeptical or willing to believe it. 

Turning to Henry, Andrew queried uncertainly, “Henry, is this stuff the country boy found actually Blood 

Jade?”
