The Understated Dragon Lord
Chapter 949 Can You Prove It Worthy?

"Country boy, you're the one who will lose! This original stone definitely can't yield jade worth over two hundred thousand!" Aaron declared with unwavering confidence.

"Whether this original stone yields jade worth two hundred thousand isn't for you to decide," Daniel replied, still smiling.

"If it isn't for me to decide, then whose is it? Yours, you think?" Aaron sneered.

"Not even mine!" Daniel chuckled. "Since this is Jade Gambling, it's a matter of cutting the stone open. Only once it's cut can we know if it can yield two hundred thousand worth of jade."

"You're right, country boy. Whether this original stone you bought for twenty thousand can yield jade worth two hundred thousand isn't for either of us to decide. We need the staff to cut the original stone open to see," Aaron pointed out, urging, "Come on, let's not waste any more time. Have the staff cut this stone!"

Daniel turned to the staff and said with a smile, "Could you cut this open for me?"

"Sir, this original stone's larger than the last one. To cut it open, it'll be two thousand dollars."

"Sure!" Although he knew the worker was probably overcharging, Daniel didn't mind. After all, he was aiming to win hundreds of millions tonight. What's two thousand bucks to a winner like him?

He quickly transferred two thousand to the worker. Then, taking a marker, he drew a line on the original stone.

Once finished, he instructed the worker, "Please cut it along this line."

"Absolutely, sir!" Though pricey, the worker was skilled at his job.

Using a special saw for cutting stones, he followed Daniel's lines and sliced the stone. In less than a minute, with a sharp crack, he had cleanly cut the original stone in half, without any crooked lines.

While the exterior of the original stone looked gray, once it was cut, a dark red hue started to show.

Aaron, being the expert, squinted, seeing a bit of unexpected color. But it was just a minor surprise, not something too remarkable.

"Well, well! Country boy, looks like your luck isn't too bad! I honestly thought this would be empty, but there's actually a piece of Heliotrope inside!" Aaron said, giving Daniel a thumbs up.

His expression was relaxed, and he seemed almost pleased.

Grant saw Aaron's relaxed demeanor and knew that the Heliotrope inside the original stone probably wasn't worth much. Thus, he grinned at Aaron. "So, Aaron, how much is this Heliotrope worth? It looks a bit dull and seems to have some impurities, but the size is decent-it's about the size of my palm!"
