The Understated Dragon Lord novel Chapter 167

Chapter 167 Andrew Gets Angry 

Seeing the potential for another clash between the two women, Daniel quickly stepped in to shift the focus. He looked at Andrew, all smiles, and said, “Andrew, as I mentioned before, I will allow Isaac to pick an additional stone without any price limit, and I won’t go back on my word.” 

“What do you mean?” 

“As long as Isaac can find a stone among the remaining ones that contains a jade valued at ten billion, he can still win against me.” 

Isaac quickly stepped up, pointing at the stone priced at 8.8 billion, and said to Andrew seriously,” 

Andrew, that stone, I am certain, contains top–quality Imperial Green, even better than what this country boy has found. Its value is definitely over ten billion.” 

Coming to his senses, Andrew was beyond furious. He pointed at Isaac’s nose and yelled, “You’re useless! You can’t even beat a country boy, how dare you call yourself the King of Jade Gambling?” 

“Andrew, please calm down, I haven’t lost yet. Just trust me one more time, and I can win against him.” 

“Trust you one more time? You mean for me to pull out another 8.8 billion for you?” 

“Andrew, while that stone is priced at 8.8 billion, it does have the potential to yield the best quality 

Imperial Green! And not just any Imperial Green, but one worth over ten billion. 

Andrew, if you’re reluctant to put in the 8.8 billion, then the ten billion you’ve put into the joint account will 

be lost to that country boy. 

And if you invest that 8.8 billion, not only will you win jade worth ten billion, but you’ll also get to take the twenty billion in the joint account.” 

Even though the math was simple, and Isaac explained it in detail, Andrew knew what he had to do, but 

his anger was palpable. 

Incensed at Isaac–the so–called King of Jade Gambling–how could he lose to a country folk? Isaac’s 

actions had driven Andrew into a corner. 

After hesitating for a moment, Andrew glared at Isaac and demanded, “Are you certain that within the 

stone priced at 8.8 billion, there’s top–quality Imperial Green Jade worth over ten billion?” 

“I am certain!” 

“And there’s no other choice?” 

“That’s it. That 8.8–billion–priced stone is our only chance, our only hope to turn things around.” 

“Our only chance? Heh!” 

Andrew let out a cold sneer and said discontentedly, “A country boy spends just 380,000 on a stone and 

retrieves a top–quality Imperial Green Jade worth a billion from it! 

But you, claiming to be the King of Jade Gambling, have to spend 8.8 billion to pick a stone that contains 

top–quality Imperial Green. And that stone you want is the highest priced of all! 

Then why didn’t I just choose the most expensive one from the start? What’s the use of having you, the so- called King of Jade Gambling, if you’re worthless?” 

Faced with Andrew’s tirade, Isaac couldn’t provide an explanation; he just had to listen quietly. After the lashing, he hurried to defend himself, “Andrew, you saw the three stones I picked, all of them brought you a huge profit. 

It’s only because of his luck that this country fellow’s last stone contained the finest Imperial Green. He got lucky! 

I am very certain that inside the 8.8–billion–priced stone, there’s top–quality Imperial Green worth a billion!”
