Chapter 445 They are lying!
Inside, everything was gray and white.
Everyone immediately uttered a sound of regret, and the young man stared at the gray stone with his eyes wide open, as if he couldn't believe what was happening before his eyes.
The middle-aged man then ordered, "Open the other two stones as well."
The waiter agreed and cut the other two stones.
One is emerald green inside, and the other is as white as cream.
They are both jade!
The probability of choosing two out of three was that I chose the wrong one.
The young man looked at the scene in front of him stupidly, his face as pale as paper. After a long time, he turned around and walked out of the crowd.
No one stopped him.
Only people sighed and said, "Ah, I lost everything I had, but I still didn't win the bet."
"Why bother?"
Someone nearby whispered, "His father has a strange disease, and he needs five hundred taels of silver to go to Peking to see a doctor. But he scraped together money from everywhere, even selling his house, and could only scrape together a hundred taels..."
Everyone looked at the young man's back with regret.
Nan Yan frowned and turned to look at the Treasure Pavilion.
The middle-aged man happily accepted the silver the young man had given him, then asked the waiter to bring out three stones. He smiled and said, "Does anyone else want to try it?"
“…”
"Just now, the shop was very sincere in taking out two pieces of jade, but unfortunately, that person was unlucky."
“…”
"Everyone, whoever feels lucky, come on."
“…”
"If you bet right, you'll become rich overnight!"
Although we just saw someone lose everything, when we heard the words "get rich overnight", some people were ready to make a move.
Someone has already gone back to prepare the money.
Nan Yan also stared at the three stones and muttered, "Where did he get so many jades?"
At this time, an old man nearby said: "This man is mining here."
"Mining?"
"Yes," the old man said, "In our Yan country, private trading of ore is allowed. A few days ago, a wealthy businessman from another place came here and bought an iron mine."
“…”
“Who knew there was a jade vein beneath that iron ore.”
"ah?"
"After they mine jade, they come to this town to gamble on it."
“…”
"Alas, in just a few months, many families have lost everything."
Seeing the old man shaking his head and sighing, Nan Yan couldn't help but frown.
Seeing her angry face, Ran Xiaoyu whispered, "What's wrong?"
Nan Yan said angrily: "They are lying!"
"Oh? How did you know?"
"Let's not even talk about whether there are jade mines in this place. How is it possible that both jadeite and white jade can appear in the same mine?"
Ran Xiaoyu nodded gently.
Nan Yan whispered, "If I could tell which piece was jade, I'd want to take a gamble and teach them a lesson."
“…”
"Unfortunately, I don't know."
Ran Xiaoyu didn't say anything, but took another look at the three stones and said, "I can probably tell which one is jade."
Nan Yan was surprised and asked, "Really?"
“Although it’s not 100% accurate, it’s still around 60% to 70%.”
“…”
"But that's not enough. Because when the waiter cuts the stone, he will exchange the stone in his sleeve for the selected jade."
"oh?"
Nan Yan opened her eyes wide in surprise: "How come I didn't see that?"
Ran Xiaoyu said: "He moves very quickly, obviously, he is an old hand."
“…”
"But, you can't hide it from my eyes."
“…”
Nan Yan bit her lower lip, thought for a moment, and said softly, "We can't let people like this continue to harm the people!"
Ran Xiaoyu turned and looked at her: "You want to go? It costs one hundred taels to bet on the treasure."
“…”
"This is all the money you have."
