Chapter 156 The Betting Begins



Tang Xiaobao looked around curiously and noticed a man in his thirties in the crowd. He was dressed like a rich man, but his eyes were cold and murderous.

Are there still people from the army?

Or the bandit leader?

Tang Xiaobao changed his mind and no longer paid attention to it because someone found him at this time.

That’s right, it’s Gu Zixuan.

Behind Gu Zixuan was a middle-aged man who looked like a butler. He was wearing a long robe and looked quite shrewd.

"Boy, didn't you say you wanted to gamble? Come on! You decide how to gamble and the rules!" Gu Zixuan changed from his previous gentle demeanor to become a little aggressive.

Tang Xiaobao blinked and asked, "I've never been here before, so how can I bet? You lay out the rules and I'll follow."

Gu Zixuan became more confident.

This is just a young and foolish man!

"Okay, then let's each pick a piece of raw stone and see who can produce the better quality jade." Gu Zixuan said.

Tang Xiaobao nodded decisively, then frowned again: "How much do you want to bet?"

Gu Zixuan laughed: "You only have 100 million, then let's bet 100 million."

Tang Xiaobao was a little hesitant.

"What? Are you scared?" Gu Zixuan was afraid that Tang Xiaobao would not gamble, so he tried to provoke him again.

Tang Xiaobao sneered in his heart.

Are you trying to provoke Mr. Tang? Do you think Mr. Tang will fall for it?

Yes, that’s what I buy into!

I’m going to kill you!

Tang Xiaobao had an expression of unwillingness to admit defeat, like a gambler who had lost all his money, and shouted, "If you want to gamble, then bet 200 million. 100 million is too little."

Gu Zixuan laughed out loud: "I don't care, but if you lose, do you have that much money?"

"I--" Tang Xiaobao seemed a little annoyed, his face turned red, and he seemed a little ashamed.

"How about this, if I lose, I will give you 200 million, and if you lose, you give me 100 million. However, you have to kneel down and kowtow to me three times. Do you dare to bet?" Gu Zixuan was very proud.

Having money means being willful. He knew that Tang Xiaobao didn't have 200 million, but he didn't care. What he wanted was face, and he wanted to vent his anger.

Who told Tang Xiaobao to not be able to control himself and laugh at him just now!

"Are you going too far?" Cao Ying frowned.

"Why, Miss Cao, do you think I'm going too far?" Gu Zixuan said calmly, "He can choose not to gamble and just admit defeat. That way, he doesn't have to lose a penny, and naturally he doesn't have to kneel down and kowtow. However, this is a gamble, who knows who will win in the end? This is fair, I didn't force him."

Tang Xiaobao waved his hand and said, "Bet, I'll bet with you."

Many people were watching the fun, but some people also started to select raw stones.

Tang Xiaobao couldn't wait any longer, fearing that others would pick up all the good ones, so he pulled a shopping cart and rushed to the raw stone area.

Many people laughed and went to pick raw stones together, waiting to see the show.

"This stone is the best, hurry, master!"

Tang Xiaobao picked up a piece of raw stone in the one million area and put it into the shopping cart.

"Wow, master, we're rich. This one is even better. Take it away quickly." Lan Nu kept shouting in front.

Tang Xiaobao must have great trust in Lan Nu, so without saying a word, he put the stones into the shopping cart.

“This one’s not bad either.”

“And this one.”

"Ah, this one definitely has imperial green."

"And this, this, this..."

Tang Xiaobao's shopping cart was soon full.

During the rush to buy, Tang Xiaobao did not know how to be humble at all. No matter who was in front of him, as long as he saw the opportunity, he would cut in line and start grabbing the stones.

The guests who come here are all of status, and everyone seems to be in good order. After all, raw stones do not necessarily mean jade, it's all a matter of luck, and no one will appear too unreasonable.

Many people looked at Tang Xiaobao with silent frowns, even Wang Datong on the side seemed a little unhappy.

Cao Ying randomly selected a rough stone worth 100,000 yuan. Although she came here frequently, she usually waited for others to open the stone before making a move, just like many others. Although this might cost more, at least she didn't take on greater risks. Gambling on stones was purely for fun.

Tang Xiaobao pulled the shopping cart aside and stood with Cao Ying, waiting for everyone to continue picking out raw stones.

She wanted to grab all the jade raw stones, but there were rules here that only one car could be selected at a time, so he couldn't go too far.

Moreover, he was actually full of confidence about how much jade he could produce from this cart of raw stones.

Soon, everyone had chosen their rough stones and started making payments.

Tang Xiaobao spent more than 10 million yuan on this car. He felt a little reluctant when paying.

Gu Zixuan only selected five or six raw stones, and then looked at Tang Xiaobao with some mockery.

He is an expert in stone identification. The stones he picked have a great chance of producing green. He believes that with his vision and luck, he will definitely win today.

"Well, are we ready to start?" Gu Zixuan sneered, "Do you think it's useful to choose more? Boy, today I'm going to teach you how to be a man. Humph, this piece of raw stone is priced at 100,000. Pick one too!"

"Lan Nu, help me pick a piece that is just slightly better than his. Don't make it too good." Tang Xiaobao ordered Lan Nu.

Lan Nu pointed to a less noticeable rough stone and said, "Master, this one is just right."

Tang Xiaobao took out the rough stone and said, "Okay, let's compete. You go first!"

Gu Zixuan smiled, placed the stone on the stone crusher, glanced at Tang Xiaobao, then put his hands in his trouser pockets and said leisurely, "Everyone, watch carefully. The bet has begun. Come and be a witness, in case someone denies their bet later."
