The Understated Dragon Lord
Chapter 907 The Ignorant Hick

Seeing that the hick only responded with that, Isla immediately asked with a sneer, "You really don't know what original stones are, do you?"

Daniel knew very well what original stones were, but he pretended not to know, shaking his head with a puzzled look, "No idea!"

"Ha!"

Daniel's answer only earned him another derisive laugh from Isla.

After laughing, she exaggeratedly said, "Wow, hick, you really are a genuine hick! You're so clueless that you don't even know what original stones are? That's just too ignorant!" Then, to further mock him, Isla continued, "So, hick, do you know what's inside these original stones?"

"A pile of broken rocks? Since they're stones, there's probably just some coal or something in them! You're not telling me they can produce gold, are you?"

Daniel meant to say this on purpose; he wasn't wrong either. After all, these were original stones, and they couldn't produce gold.

However, some of the stones contained jade.

But even if jade were contained within those stones, breaking them to get the jade would simply make it a mineral! So, Daniel's description of the original stones wasn't wrong.

"Coal? Ha!"

Isla laughed coldly again, then turned to Avery, saying, "Avery, listen to your son-in-law's ignorance! He actually thinks these original stones can only yield coal? He has no idea that the things taken from these stones could be more precious than gold!"

Daniel jumped in, "Isla, what do you mean? What could be more precious than gold?"

He was playing dumb on purpose, so it would be more satisfying when he proved these people wrong later.

"There's a saying, I wonder if you've heard it?" Isla teased, leaving a cliffhanger.

"A saying?"

Daniel had a good guess about she wo

say-it was probably

something like "gold has a price.ne

jade is priceless."

But pretending to be curious, he asked, “What saying?"

"Gold has a price, but jade is priceless!"

Isla indeed recited the very saying Daniel had suspected.

"I've heard that saying! My

second-grade teacher told us a story about how his ancestor found a

piece of fade in the East, and that piece of jade allowed him to buy a castle. Is that the kind of jade you're talking about?"

"Pfft..."

Daniel's question made Isla burst into laughter because this hick was just too ignorant.

"Hick, which university did you graduate from? You don't even know what jade is?"

"I never went to college! I only went

to an elementary school in my village. But in second grade, I was expelled from school. So, I never finished the second grade!

As Daniel said this, Avery's face turned dark and stormy, changing into a deep shade of blue.
