Chapter 138 Chicken Crown Red!
Southwest Eight Kings.
According to the ranking of power.
First, the Liang Family, with a century of wealth inheritance and deep foundation.
Second, the Tan Family, a Martial Arts Family with numerous experts, and who in recent years, has cultivated a military general whose might shook the world, leaping to the second position among the Southwest Eight Kings.
Third, the Qian Family, engaged in the jewelry business, owns more than a dozen mines in South Africa, wealthy enough to rival nations.
Fourth, the Ghost Soldier Mercenary Group, the only one with a mercenary group's identity among the Southwest Eight Kings, indicating its immense power.
Fifth, the Yu Family, like the Tan Family, a Martial Arts Family. Originally very powerful, but lacking in successors and potential, thus ranked slightly lower, yet still possessing strong overall power.
Sixth, the Gu Family, real estate tycoons with properties all over the country, such as Gu Yuanshan from the Octagonal Real Estate Group in Lake City.
Seventh, the Mu Family, a century-old traditional Chinese medicine family with tremendous influence in the herbal medicine realm.
Eighth, Lord Dog, who climbed from a small-time thug to unify the entire Southwest Underworld.
If someone as formidable as Lord Dog ranks eighth, not to mention the Qian Family who is third.
If ranked by wealth.
Even the top wealthy Liang Family might not be richer than the Qian Family!
"No wonder he started with such a huge offer, so it's Mr. Qian..." people exclaimed in admiration.
Qian Baiyu, sensing the respectful gazes around him, showed a gentlemanly arrogance in his eyes, then said to Qin Feng, "Won't you reconsider my offer?"
Although his tone remained gentle.
Even a fool knows, with his identity revealed, who would dare defy him; that would be seeking death!
People looked at Qin Feng, their eyes filled with mockery.
Being targeted by Mr. Qian, his fate was sealed.
It's also his fault for not recognizing his status, having no money nor skill, and still acquiring such a beautiful woman, now he deserved this misfortune.
At this moment.
Su Ruolan started to worry.
Although Qin Feng knew Lord Dog, but Lord Dog was merely the least of the Eight Kings!
She was about to speak up for Qin Feng when he raised his hand to stop her, then looking at Qian Baiyu with a proud expression on his face, he said, "Do you think you are very rich?"
"Oh?"
Qian Baiyu was somewhat stunned.
He assumed that after offering thirty million and revealing his identity, Qin Feng would either cower like a coward, grab the cheque and run away, or kneel in fright begging for mercy, showing the beautiful woman beside him his most incompetent side.
Then.
She would also make the correct choice.
Which woman in the world would prefer a weak man over a supremely powerful elite?
What surprised Qian Baiyu was.
Qin Feng did not behave as he imagined; instead, he retorted disdainfully, asking if he was indeed rich!
"Hehe…"
Qian Baiyu laughed.
As if he heard the funniest joke in the world.
Onlookers also burst into laughter.
"You must be an idiot, right? Never heard of the Qian Family? How can you be so ignorant, haha…"
"Do you know what a gold mine is? Do you know what it means to be wealthy enough to rival countries?"
"Not knowing even this, how pitiful!"
"…"
Qian Baiyu, still laughing, pointed Qin Feng in the direction of the southeast corner of the square, saying, "Over there are our Qian Family's mines, I could pick any stone from there that would be more than you could earn in ten lifetimes."
"Gambling on stones?"
Qin Feng was surprised.
He had not expected that Longshan Black Market also involved gambling on stones.
"Ah, you know about gambling on stones?" Qian Baiyu scoffed, "Ever dreamt of getting rich overnight from childhood? Gambling on stones is not something people like you can afford to play."
Qin Feng ignored him, then said to Su Ruolan, "With money, there's no need to wait until tomorrow."
Then.
He took Su Ruolan and headed toward the southeast corner of the square.
Seeing this, people wondered, "Is that guy really going to wait for gambling on stones?"
"Seems like it."
"What an idiot, with his level of knowledge, he must be 'cutting through hemp' in one stroke!"
"..."
Qian Baiyu saw the situation, laughing and said, "Interesting, very interesting, let's also go and see how he is courting death."
Southeast corner of the square.
Several rows of shelves were set up.
On them, raw stones of various sizes, freshly mined, were displayed, covering an area as large as a basketball court.
The cheaper stones cost a few thousand yuan.
The expensive ones cost millions.
Many people were picking stones inside, with bursts of mad ecstatic laughter and bursts of desperate wailing intermittently heard.
One cut can make you rich, one cut can make you poor, one cut and you're 'cutting through hemp'.
Anyone with a bit of common sense knows that gambling on stones, nine out of ten, leads to ruin.
At this moment.
Qin Feng arrived here.
Su Ruolan slightly furrowed her eyebrows and said, "You're not really thinking about gambling on stones, are you?"
"Don't worry."
Qin Feng said, comforting her.
Following that.
He picked a palm-sized raw stone from the cheapest area on the shelves for two thousand yuan and handed it over to the Cutting Master.
Then, he went to pick again.
Qian Baiyu and the others, seeing this, couldn't help but laugh and said, "You're not really thinking about making a big gain from a small bet, hoping to see green with just two thousand yuan, are you?"
"Hahaha, you can tell this guy is a newcomer, what good stone can he buy with two thousand yuan?"
"No money and still wants to gamble on stones, he must be crazy to get rich."
"..."
While everyone was scoffing and laughing.
Unexpectedly.
The Cutting Master, after slicing open that stone, was stunned and exclaimed in astonishment: "This, this is... Chicken Crown Red!"
"What?!"
Qian Baiyu and the others widened their eyes to look.
Within the thick layer of the stone, was a lustrously transparent red jade, as beautifully seductive as an enchanting woman.
There were quite a few connoisseurs of jade present.
Someone immediately assessed and said, "This, this Chicken Crown Red is top-grade!"
Immediately, a person from a jewelry company called out to Qin Feng: "Can you sell it to me? I'll offer a million yuan!"
"A million to buy it? This is top-grade! I'll offer one and a half million!"
Another person added.
This piece of Chicken Crown Red, though not large, if crafted by a master, could easily fetch three times its price.
"I'll offer two million!"
Another person called out.
At this point, Qin Feng, holding a few recently selected raw stones, didn't even haggle and directly said, "Sold for two million, but I'd need an independent bank card."
"Great, great, this card of mine has exactly two million, you can check here."
The person said excitedly.
Others, seeing the situation, both envied the buyer and inwardly cursed Qin Feng for being an idiot!
If he hadn't been in such a rush to sell, by checking with a few more jewelry companies, he might have been able to sell for an additional half a million, but now he's just let it go.
"Hmph, you can tell he's a newbie, like someone who's never seen money before, doesn't even know he's made a loss."
Qian Baiyu commented at this point.
Qin Feng, as if he hadn't heard him, handed the raw stones he bought for tens of thousands of yuan to the Cutting Master, and without even looking, turned around to pick again.
With those two million now, he could pick even more.
Seeing Qin Feng pick a few more stones, acting like he wouldn't stop until he had spent the entire two million, Qian Baiyu said disdainfully, "A newbie, definitely a newbie, the beginner's luck in gambling often comes only once, yet he still wants to 'pursue a victory', making a big taboo!"
No sooner had he spoken.
He suddenly heard from the Cutting Master's side, a voice: "Woah, holy shit—!!"
