The Rookie Returns: Soaring in the Apocalypse

On the brink of the apocalypse, Zuo Ling is brought back to her distant relatives' Ding family and safely survives countless disasters through the chaos.

However, on the verge of death, s...

Chapter 74 Jade Gambling Conference

It seems the waterfall was in such a hurry that it removed the two stones, which obviously sped up the process of identifying the stones.

Zuo Ling was also anxious; anything that could make the waterfall so concerned must be a good stone.

They stopped relentlessly pushing the price down, and instantly, money flowed out like water.

I overheard someone mention that the jade gambling convention had rented warehouses on the back street of the main hall to make it easier for attendees to store their stones.

He immediately went to the back street and rented a 30-square-meter warehouse for 30,000 yuan a day.

Zuo Ling chose a warehouse as far away from the surveillance cameras as possible and rented it for 3 days.

Back at the jade gambling hall, she had just bought two stones when someone handed her an invitation to attend a certain jade gambling conference.

Zuo Ling frowned because the invitation had no time or place on it.

The man explained, "We will notify you of the time and place separately."

I understand now, it's the clandestine underground jade gambling business.

Zuo Ling isn't in the jade business; he's read a lot of novels and watched a lot of TV shows, so he can guess what's going on.

Participating in underground jade gambling events carries both risks and opportunities.

Her use of large amounts of cash in her transactions suggests she was being watched and realized she could no longer stay there.

Without further hesitation, he immediately found the owner of the two stones and asked to make a deal.

The owner of the stones was slightly surprised. He had acquired the two stones several years ago, and although many people had come to see them, few had actually sold them, and they had never been able to agree on a price.

First, the two stones are large in size and therefore command high prices.

Secondly, the characteristics of jade-producing stones are not very obvious on either stone, so no one can tell which one is the best match.

The price was high, and he wasn't sure what to do with it, so he awkwardly kept the stone.

There is 135.55 million in the card...

Zuo Ling had only a few cents left on her card, and she made up the rest with cash.

The stone's owner was quite famous in the industry, but Zuo Ling was unfamiliar with him. Thinking of the news from Licheng, his gaze sharpened.

Zuo Ling's act of covering her head and face was exactly the same as the mysterious person who appeared in Licheng in legend.

The most obvious thing is the waterfall in front of Zuo Ling. The general manager and waiters of Licheng Hotel have all seen Zuo Ling holding her pet rabbit.

A young, mysterious woman, completely covered up, with a pet rabbit by her side, has become the most obvious feature that identifies Zuo Ling.

The stone owner, wanting to befriend her, said, "Young lady, you've spent a lot of money to buy two of my stones, so..."

He marked out an area in the shop, pointed to the stones in that area, and said, "Miss, feel free to pick two stones; consider it making friends."

As he spoke, he handed over a business card.

Zuo Ling accepted the business card but made no attempt to exchange it with another.

"Thank you very much, boss. I will gladly accept your offer."

Anyone else would be angry at such a lack of appreciation.

Unfortunately, the owner of the stone was no ordinary person. He smiled gently and gestured for the stone to proceed.

There were indeed stones that Zuo Ling needed within the designated area. Based on the extent of the waterfall's frenzy, Zuo Ling picked out the two best ones.

After making their selections, they didn't exchange pleasantries, simply nodded their thanks, and turned to leave without any hesitation.

The stone owner didn't say anything, but his helper was unhappy:

"What's with the arrogance? You're asking for it."

Among those who come to the store to buy stones are many who are worth hundreds of millions, and none of them fail to give face to the owner of the shop.

The stone owner glared at him: "What do you know? Have you heard about what happened in Licheng?"

The helper's eyes widened, pointing at Zuo Ling's retreating figure: "She, she, she... is she?"

The mysterious woman who sold 2 billion yuan worth of jade in one night has become a legend.

Not only was Licheng shaken, but the entire jade industry was in an uproar.

Unfortunately, the mysterious woman came and went quickly, and no one knew her name.
