Chapter 155 Master of the Trade

• The prices of the stones in the jade market ranged from a few hundred to a few hundred thousand, while a few of the most prized ones would be worth millions. No wonder a common saying was that a cut on the stone would determine if one would end up rich or dirt poor. I couldn’t afford to go jade gambling despite how entertaining and how stimulating it was.
• However, it didn’t deter the middle-aged man on the second floor from gambling on a stone with the help of a technician. He obviously had a hard time resisting the urge to do it due to how stimulating it was, and moreover, it was legal.
• “I’m done for... I really am done for...” The middle-aged men with tousled hair collapsed onto the floor as he saw the stone that the technician cut open. While the surface of the stone had a speck of flawless emerald color to it, the stone itself was empty aside from a few specks of jade that were scattered in the stone after being cut open.
