Chapter 20 Making a Bet

“Brother, I am now reminding you out of good intention. The probability that you would suffer a loss because of this stone is large. If I were you, I would give it up.” Hua Long seemed to be so good-hearted that he gave out a reminding.

But from his words, Wang Feng discerned a meaning with ease which indicated that he actually was taking pleasure in his misfortune.

This idiot actually regarded him as a stupid boy, did not he?

“Since Young Master Hua Long has said so, then do you dare to make a bet with me or not?” Wang Feng said smilingly.

“Making a bet?” Casting Wang Feng a somewhat peculiar glance, Hua Long said later, “Just say it. What are we betting on?”

Being a person who was in charge of Hua Lian Jewelry Shop, Hua Long naturally was not afraid of Wang Feng who was just an ordinary person.

“Let’s bet on this jade stone in front of us. If jade were cut out from it, then you would give this stone to me for free. If not, the discounts we have talked about previously would be voided. What do you think?”

“Good.” Hua Long nodded. However, he felt somewhat furious deep inside his heart.

Upon thinking about the bet over and over again, he would not gain any benefit from it, even for just a small one. It turned out Wang Feng would not suffer any losses at all instead.

Bei Yunxue by the side looked at Wang Feng somewhat amusedly. It never occurred to her that he would be that treacherous.

“Alright. As expected, Young Master Hua Long is decisive and frank. Then, let’s cut this stone open and have a look at it.”

Having been waiting for so long a time, those on-lookers surrounding were impatient early since. So before a stone-cutting master arrived at this place, people had besieged here so closely that not a drop of water could trickle through.

Stone cutting was an exciting and thrilling process. Even though they just looked, their mood would fluctuate violently along with those delicate motions of the stone-cutting master.

Even more, there was a piece of news previously saying that some people died from the heart attack while enjoying the process of stone cutting.

“Huh, you idiot. You really think that I am now betting with you without even an assurance, don’t you?” Seeing Wang Feng’s keen look, Hua Long could not help sneering secretly.

He once had also inspected this jade stone carefully before which did not look like to be an item with jades inside. If it were not for this fact, he would dare not to accept the bet that easily.

Naturally, Wang Feng saw all kinds of countenance change on Hua Long’s face. The reason why he had acted like a newbie was that he was afraid that Hua Long would go back on his words.

“You will cry to death later.” Wang Feng thought pretty treacherously in his heart.

He chose the stone-sharpening method for the stone-cutting this time. Due to the fact that there was a pretty big jade inside, Wang Feng did not hope to see any damage thus caused.

Holding their breath, all were looking at the jade stone in stone-cutting master’s hands intently. The atmosphere was extremely oppressive.

“See, the green is showing up.”

Probably ten minutes later, all of a sudden, it was unknown who had snapped loudly among the crowd. The voice was so unexpected that even the stone-cutting master was trembling all of a sudden, who almost cut the whole jade stone into the garbage with one cut.

“It seems that the green is really showing up.” At this time, some other people spoke out from the crowd again, who seemed to have sensed the change of the jade stone.

Now the jade stone had been sharpened away with a pretty large part. Through the stone debris, they could really see vaguely the green reflective light among them.

Seeing this scene, Hua Long changed the look on his face slightly. However, it was not possible for him to go back on his words now.

Since that there already had been some green reflective lights, it would suffice to say that he had already lost the bet. They bet on the fact whether there were jades inside the stones or not instead of the jade’s size.

What the f**k!

Ten thousand horses stained with mud raced across Hua Long’s heart. The expression on Hua Long’s face was somewhat ghastly. He now suffered an extremely great loss right away.

Not only did he have to waive the selling price of the jade stone which was at two million dollars, but also he had to exert the discounts which he had agreed on before. Upon thinking, it was not right at all. Right from the start, Wang Feng was scheming against him.

Upon thinking of this point, Hua Long felt chilling deeply from his heart. He knew that he had fallen into the trap Wang Feng had set up for him.

If Wang Feng won, he would not suffer any losses. If he lost, neither would he suffer any losses. While for Hua Long, he was totally led by the nose.

Though having the intention to kill people, he still remained patient and continued looking on.

Half an hour later, as expected, it ended up that an Icy Jade whose size was as big as that of a fist was cut out from the stone. The icy jade was crystally clear, which gave out a soft radiance of light green color.

“Ugh, it appears that I am really old. I can not even know how to inspect a jade stone.” Among the crowd, the grandpa wearing a pair of glasses previously opened his mouth with a depressing look all over his face.

“Young Master Hua Long, is our bet still valid or not?” Taking advantage of the opportunity that the crowd was not dispersed completely, Wang Feng asked closely in a hurry.

“Of course it is valid.” Hua Long spoke this line out in a way that he almost gnashed his teeth in anger.

It really hurt him bad that he had lost two million dollars all of a sudden.

“Then thanks a lot.” With a smile appearing in his face, Wang Feng turned his back and left. It was fine as long as this Hua Long admitted it.

For this time, not only did he get the discount, but also he could save two million dollars, which meant that he made another fortune again.

“Brother, please wait for a while.” All of a sudden, Hua Long stopped Wang Feng.

“Do you have any other issues?”

“Brother, there is still a senior appraiser lacking in the Hua Lian Jewelry Shop. I wonder whether you are interested or not?” After thinking back and forth, Hua Long gave out his own olive branch after all, which was also the biggest purpose of his meeting up with Wang Feng this time.

This time, Wang Feng cut out a jade at high value in front of him again. If it was said that he did not possess any capability at all, he would not believe in it even if he was beaten to death.

So for talents like him, if he would draw them over to his side, it would be an excellent thing for his Hua Lian Jewelry Shop.

“Oh, as for the salary, you don’t need to worry about it. I will offer you five million dollars annually with additional flexible and free working hours. If there are no issues, you don’t even need to come over to work.”

Seeing that Wang Feng seemed to be somewhat reluctant, Hua Long said hurriedly.

“Hehe.” Upon hearing these words, Wang Feng smiled lightly. This Hua Long actually was so shameless that he dared to ask such a request. He had asked some other people to give him a good beating previously and now he wanted to draw him over to his side. How could it be possible that there was a thing like this in this world?

Casting a glance which meant that “Be rest assured” at the somewhat worried Bei Yunxue, Wang Feng then spoke slowly, “I feel so sorry that I have taken a position in Bei Enterprise Jewelry Shop. Moreover, the annual salary is at ten million dollars, so…”

Upon saying this, Wang Feng did not continue walking. However, his meaning had been pretty clear.

The expression on Hua Long’s face was extremely ghastly at this moment. He could not even remain calm anymore. Meanwhile, he was surprised at the fact that Bei Enterprise Jewelry Shop actually was willing to offer a sky-high price, which meant that they were not recruiting talents and seemed to be taking in a son-in-law rather.

Giving Bei Yunxue whose countenance was somewhat blushing a look, he instantly figured everything out. They two must have a fling.

Bei Yunxue was the women who he was determined to gain over. While for this Wang Feng, he actually had fooled him over and over again. Consequently, now he really had the intention to get him killed.

There was only one end for those people who wanted to meddle with his woman. And that was death!

For killing, he actually had done it. So while staring at Wang Feng again this time, he gradually resumed his calmness. In his eyes, there was no doubt that Wang Feng was already a dead man walking.

Hua Lian Jewelry Shop had been a dominant player in this field all along. Since that Wang Feng could not be affected by him, he would get him destroyed.

He did not even give a damn about such a nobody at all.

“Sister Xue, let’s continue picking the jade stones.” Wang Feng did not pay attention to what Hua Long would think. He started a crazy purchasing next.

Right in front of Hua Long whose face was of dark color, Wang Feng purchased the jade stones valued probably at more than one hundred million dollars, whose number was at almost as many as one hundred.

People surrounding were all stupefied. They had thought that these two people with Wang Feng included were at most the ordinary rich second generations and that was all. However, it never occurred to any one of them that they would actually purchase the jade stones whose value exceeded one hundred million dollars crazily, which definitely was a big give.

While Hua Long by the side had been so furious that he intended to spit out blood. If he had not seen big scenes before, he would probably have fainted over.

For the value of the jade stones which was at more than one hundred million dollars, based on Wang Feng’s saying, he would suffer a loss of more than twenty million dollars. If his father knew about the loss at such a large amount, he would probably be beaten to death.

His heart actually was bleeding!

He did not care whether Wang Feng was losing or winning this time, at least for this time, he suffered a costly loss.

“Young Master Hua Long, we will transfer the funds to you later. We hope that you can deliver those jade stones to Bei Enterprise Jewelry Shop for us as scheduled.” Upon finishing his words, Wang Feng dragged Bei Yunxue and rushed out of this place.

This time, due to the fact that he actually had entrapped Hua Long mercilessly, this person would definitely not let them go that easily.

So, for the sake of safety, it was better if they could leave this place first and then they could talk about the other things. As for the jade stones, he was not worried about them at all. Since Hua Lian Jewelry Shop had climbed to such a prominent status, of course, they dared not to fudge on these jade stones.

Otherwise, they would be discredited once taken to the court.

Moreover, Wang Feng did not want Bei Yunxue to stay here anymore. For the way Hua Long had looked at her previously, it was filled with rich possessive desire. He was hatching a sinister plot at a glance.

Although there was no practical relationship between Wang Feng and Bei Yunxue at all, deep inside his heart, he had already long since regarded Bei Yunxue as his own people. Of course, he would not see her trapped by some man of intention.

“Junior brother, you are so mean. You really entrap Hua Long so mercilessly this time.” Bei Yunxue said somewhat chucklingly after walking out of Hua Lian Jewelry Shop.

There always existed a cooperation relationship between Hua Lian and Bei Enterprise. Previously, at most times, it was Hua Lian who would take over the part which had more benefits. While Bei Enterprise only took the part which contained fewer benefits.

So, now being able to see Hua Long suffering a great loss for one time now, she also felt joyful secretly inside her heart.

“All get out. We are closed today.” While at Hua Lian Jewelry Shop, after these two people with Wang Feng included took their leave, Hua Long changed the color of his face into a dark one straightly. He consequently drove all the people out.

This time, for the enormously large gap which was at the value of more than twenty million dollars, it would definitely be found out. Though he could make up this gap with his own money, he just hated to do it.

After all, this was not a trivial number.

Upon thinking of this point, he got a rich intention of killing in his heart. He directly asked a rookie over and said, “Get a few more people for me, then…” While saying this, he made a gesture of cutting the throat.

“Remember to strike out until nobody is around. Get it done nimbly. Otherwise, don’t blame me for sending you into the prison on my own.” Feeling somewhat worried, Hua Long said consequently.

“No worries. I know what to do.” The rookie replied distantly. Then, he turned around and walked into the darkness.

“Humph, competing for a woman with me? Rest assured that I will get you killed.” Cold and chilly light flashed across Hua Long’s eyes and then disappeared.

After leaving the jewelry shop, Wang Feng and Bei Yunxue drove back to Zhu Cheng Number 1. This time, they had purchased all the jade stones which should be purchased. Then, they should wait for people in the jewelry shop to send the stones over next.

The selling price for these stones was more than one hundred million dollars. Moreover, they were all with jades inside, so the value actually was much bigger than this figure. Bei Yunxue was not worried that these stones would be fake ones at all.

While for Wang Feng, he had already locked himself inside the room after coming back. Since the time he started practicing the Art of Gathering Qi, he had become much more powerful. His height was even somewhat elevated. Of course, he was consequently fond of practicing and he was never bored with it.

The opportunity to change himself was right in front of him. If he still did not grab at it tightly, then he would be a real idiot.

Gradually, it was probable that he would really become the immortal human body which had shown up in the legend, wasn’t it?
