Chapter 474 Useless Snacks



The old man was helped back.

The entire cave was completely silent.

Uncle San had already collapsed to the ground. He was sitting next to the rock, circling it in disbelief.

"Impossible, impossible, how could this be? This is a stone I have carefully inspected, there is no problem with it."

"How could I make such a mistake?"

Chu Wu had already been dug out and had the dirt brushed off his body. He was still a little shaken.

The intense feeling of almost dying was terrifying.

Yaka walked back into the cave with a dark expression.

"How's your godfather?"

Uncle San's face was ashen as he looked up at Yaka.

Everyone was hit hard.

Yaka's face was pale, and the once carefree chubby boy now had a somewhat composed expression on his face.

"Third Uncle, Grandpa is fine. He has taken his medicine and is asleep. The doctor said that Grandpa should not be subjected to any more stimulation recently, otherwise his heart will not be able to take it."

Third Uncle slapped himself twice hard.

"It's all my fault, it's all my fault. I didn't even notice that there was something wrong with this stone."

It's all my fault for being too careless.

I am arrogant because of my talent.

I always thought that with my 50 years of experience, I couldn't possibly be wrong.

But little did I know, right under my nose, they were faking it, and I didn't see through it at all.

Indeed, one cut can make you poor, one cut can make you rich, and one cut can leave you in rags.

"I ruined my godfather, I ruined you all."

Uncle San suddenly coughed up a mouthful of blood and fainted.

The scene immediately descended into chaos, for the most powerful person in their mine was none other than Third Uncle.

Uncle San is very experienced; in his eyes, his ability to identify stones at a glance is unmatched.

But now, due to the severe blow he suffered, Third Uncle is coughing up blood and is unconscious.

Yaka and his six brothers were sitting in the conference room.

It's called a meeting room, but it's actually just a living room in their house.

It was three hours later when Uncle San vomited blood.

All five brothers rushed to the scene after receiving the call.

With such a big incident, the five brothers must have to discuss countermeasures.

“Grandpa is sick now. Stone has run into trouble again, and Uncle Three is unconscious. We need to figure out how to get through this trade fair.”

Ya Hu's expression was solemn; this was the most serious crisis in their family's history.

The important thing now is how they get through this difficult time.

"This is troublesome. The other stones are easy to handle; we've already selected them all."

Most importantly, the news about Stone King has already been sent out; everyone's invitations know that our family is going to present our heaviest piece of Stone King.

"When that day comes, if we can't produce the Zi-O thing, people will think we're just making a fuss to embellish our image."

"Not to mention that, more importantly, this trade conference has the largest and most comprehensive attendance in history."

We've invited jade merchants from all over the world; if we can't produce anything now, it's tantamount to telling everyone we lack the capability.

Yag's face was somewhat gloomy. Each of the five brothers was in charge of guarding a mine.

They made thorough preparations for this jade exhibition in advance, carefully selecting the best pieces.

It took at least three years of preparation to get everything ready, all for the sake of making a name for myself this time.

But what do we do now?

Everyone's eyes were on their house.

"Brother, how about we don't worry about the other stones and each go back to the mine to collect the largest jade stones in the next two days?"

No matter what, even if we have to choose the best among the worst, we must find another stone king.

Yaka said in a calm voice, "This is the only solution I can think of."

We can't let Grandpa's hard work go to waste.

"That's the only way to do it!"

Yaka, you'll be in charge of taking care of the old man.

We can't stay here for the next couple of days; we need to go back and find a replacement stone.

After discussing the matter, the five older brothers left to return and reassure their subordinates, while also carrying out their work in an orderly manner.

At this time, people's hearts must not waver, otherwise trouble is likely to occur. Mengxi is lurking in the shadows, watching us intently.

If they make even the slightest mistake that the other side can seize upon, they'll be devoured right now.

Yaka sat silently in the office for a long time.

He used to think that as long as he didn't fight with his brothers for the family fortune, he could just let go of everything and become a playboy.

Then you can truly enjoy life.

But he never expected that by giving up all of this, his family would still face catastrophic destruction.

This sense of powerlessness made him hate himself for being so stubborn. If he had put in just a little more effort in the mine, he wouldn't be in this helpless situation now.

His brothers all owned mines, but he didn't.

No, he does!

My grandfather actually owned six mines, but one of them was completely mined out 30 years ago and has become an abandoned mine.

For ten years, the mine failed to yield any valuable stones.

Ultimately, it was abandoned by people.

But what use is this mine to him?

To show his determination and prove that he had no interest in his grandfather's property and did not want to inherit the mine, he specifically chose this abandoned mine.

But what use is this abandoned mine to me now?

Yaka clutched his hair in anguish. Everyone else was busy and working tirelessly, but he felt like a useless piece of trash.

By the time Yaka walked out of the room, he had calmed down, and no one knew what he was thinking.

Ouyang Zhenyu and Chu Wu were resting in their room.

Yesterday was so long, and then I experienced a terrifying moment during the day; I was almost buried alive.

Everyone was exhausted, so they went back to their rooms and fell asleep immediately.

When Ouyang Zhenyu opened his eyes, he saw that it was already dark outside the window.

Only now did I start to feel dizzy and lightheaded, and a little hungry, which I can imagine.

I didn't eat for two whole days and nights, and I expended a lot of energy and strength.

I'm completely exhausted.

Ouyang Zhenyu nudged Chu Wu, who was sleeping like a log beside him.

"Fifth Brother, wake up, wake up!"

On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, I sat up groggily.

"What's wrong? What's wrong? What happened?"

Instinctively, he pulled the dagger from under his pillow.

He never leaves his gun behind.

Ouyang Zhenyu patted him on the shoulder.

"I'm hungry, and it's getting dark. Let's go out and find something to eat."

Upon hearing this, he suddenly realized what was happening, yawned, rubbed his eyes, drew back the curtains, and looked at the pitch-black sky outside.

"Okay, we need to eat something. I'm starving."

The door was just opened on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year.

Startled, they retreated.

"Quick, quick, go out and take a look."

Seeing that Chu Wu's face was pale with fright, Ouyang Zhenyu hurriedly went to the door.

He immediately spotted Yaka kneeling at his door, kneeling upright.
