Chapter 160 It’s so hard to be a human being



As a result, she had almost touched all the stone pillars here.

It's just a pity.

The rest are just stones, as the old monkey said.

No matter what the old monkey said, he has been selling raw stones for so many years, so he still has a certain eye. Occasionally, some fish will slip through the net, but he will definitely not throw away the fry.

Just when Liu Liang was still daydreaming, the light in front of her eyes was suddenly blocked by someone.

Liu Liang raised her head and when she saw the person coming, she curled her lips slightly, but then turned her face away again and ignored the person.

Oh, today is another day of losing money on gambling.

The person who came covered his mouth and laughed. The laughter was sharp and thin, and it really wasn't very pleasant to hear.

Liu Liang stood up and prepared to leave. If she couldn't afford to offend him, could she not hide from him?

She didn't know where the bad fate between her and this woman came from. Why did she keep running into her wherever she went?

But she wanted to leave, and obviously, others were unwilling to let her go.

A hand blocked her directly.

"Liu Jing, you've been here for almost a month. Even if you're dumb, you should understand a little bit. Let's take a gamble."

Could you have a little more shame?

Liu Liang didn't want to have a conflict with anyone here. This was Lao Hou's shop, and it would be bad to cause trouble for Lao Hou.

But this Jiang Ya is really annoying.

She was hiding, so why did he want to pounce on her? What did he do to her?

Let her, a rookie, go to gamble with her. A local who was born and raised here, no matter how young she is, is already a master because of what she has learned from her surroundings. She is a rookie who has just started out. If she gambles with her, does that mean she thinks her hair is too long?

"I won't bet with you."

Liu Liang held her schoolbag with an impatient look on her face.

"I have to gamble!" Jiang Ya was determined to bite Liu Liang to death. She wanted to get back the insults she suffered on the train. She had never been embarrassed like this before.

If it weren't for Liu Liang, she would have known those two people a long time ago.

"I don't want to gamble."

Liu Liang turned around and was about to leave again.

But Jiang Ya grabbed her arm, and Liu Liang resisted the urge to kick her out as if she were kicking a stone.

"If you don't gamble, you can't even buy a piece of stone."

After Jiang Ya finished speaking, he also stood aside with his arms folded. Then two men came over and stood in front of Liu Liang.

Liu Liang's eyes darkened.

Just as she was about to swing her schoolbag at someone, she heard the old monkey's unfriendly voice.

What are you doing here?

It’s nothing, Jiang Ya said quickly with a smile, hugged Liu Liang’s arm, and there was a hint of respect in his words.

"Mr. Monkey, Liu Jing and I know each other. She just agreed to have a bet with me."

The old monkey came over and criticized Liu Liang with some disapproval.

"You've only been here for a short time, and you're already betting with others. Be careful, or you'll cry if you lose. This gambling on stones is different from other things. It's a 10% bet, and there's no going back on it."

Liu Liang really wanted to say that she didn’t find anyone to gamble with.

But suddenly, a light flashed in her eyes.

Since you bumped into her yourself, don't blame her.

She is not a man, she will not be gentle with women, nor will she show mercy.

"What's the bet?"

Liu Liang put on her schoolbag and smoothed out the corners of her clothes that were slightly creased from sitting.

"Of course it's gambling on stones."

When Jiang Ya heard that Liu Liang was willing to gamble, he could no longer hide the smugness on his face.

Liu Liang knew it was gambling on stones. What else could she do in this place besides gambling on stones? Moving stones? If so, she would definitely win.

"Betting on a rise."

Jiang Ya took out a piece of stone from her bag. It was the size of a cantaloupe, with a very tight shell and a green skin. Liu Jing had been here for almost a month, and her knowledge was still limited, but she knew that the material in Jiang Ya's hand had a more than 70% chance of turning out green. Moreover, with Jiang Ya's personality and the confidence on her face that she didn't need to hide, the possibility of turning out green was increased by another 10%.

Even the old monkey's expression turned unhappy. This was clearly bullying.

But as he said, the bet has been made and there is no regret. There is no order without rules. Since it is a rule, we must follow it.

"How do you bet on rising prices?"

Liu Jing gently turned the ring on her finger. Her hair also blocked her eyes. Some of her messy hair was slightly blown up by the wind, but the true expression on her face could not be seen.

Jiang Ya held up the stone in his hand and said confidently, "I bet it will go up 50,000 yuan."

"Fifty thousand?" The old monkey's face became uglier.

"Little girl from the Jiang family, fifty thousand is a bit too much," Liu Jing was a simple child, and whether she could have fifty thousand now was not a big deal.

As expected, Liu Liang shook her head and said, "I don't have 50,000."

"Someone can lend it to you."

Jiang Ya was still smiling, as if he would soon see Liu Liang kneeling down and begging for mercy.

Liu Liang still shook her head and refused to lend it.

Who can lend you money without connections? If someone can lend you money, it's easy to borrow but hard to repay, which is usury.

From ancient times to the present, no one can live well by borrowing high-interest loans. Not only will the interest compound, but those who can repay will lose everything they have, and those who cannot will lose their entire family.

She would never touch such things. Even if she went begging, she would never touch any loan sharking money.

“It’s okay not to gamble.”

Jiang Ya put away the stones. No matter how she gambled, she would win. She just wanted to vent her anger. Otherwise, how could she be content? She wanted Liu Liang to regret what she had done on the train.

If Liu Liang knew that Jiang Ya was causing trouble for her just for this, I wonder if she would feel wronged.

She clearly did nothing, but some people insisted on accusing her of all kinds of crimes.

It’s so hard to be a human being in this world.

"Then what are we betting on?" Liu Liang didn't care what she bet on, but she couldn't bet on money. Not to mention winning or losing, betting on jade was still acceptable, but if her mother knew about it, she wouldn't know how disappointed she would be.

Although this can be considered a kind of jade gambling, it must not be related to money. She doesn't care what others think of her, she only cares about what she thinks of herself.

"If you lose the bet, you must kneel down and kowtow to me."

"If I lose, it's the same for me. My material is also yours."

Jiang Ya turned the stone in her hand. It was up to her to decide the rules for a sure win.

"Jiang family, leave a way out for yourself."

The old monkey really doesn't like Jiang Ya's insulting behavior. Gamblers should just gamble on stones. If they win, they just get the other party's stones. Why bother saying so much?

Liu Liang shook her head at the old monkey, meaning to tell him to stop talking.

The old monkey snorted and stood aside with his hands behind his back.

"I'll bet with you," Liu Jingting was ready to die. Now she was being forced to do something desperate. She had to gamble whether she wanted to or not. Anyway, she had to gamble no matter what.

But now that the bet has been made, there is no going back on it.
