The Understated Dragon Lord
Chapter 962 Confidence

Aaron wanted to seize this opportunity to wipe away the humiliation of admitting defeat earlier. He took five full minutes inspecting the original stone from every angle until he finally felt satisfied. He shot Daniel a challenging look and asked, "Country boy, what was that you said? You think this original stone can yield Golden Jade worth $80 million?"

"Yep!" Daniel nodded, smiling brightly. "No doubt about it, $80 million! You don't believe me? You really think the Golden Jade from my stone is worth less?" "Wow, it sounds like you're really confident. How about we make another bet?" Aaron suggested, eager to redeem himself.

"Bet?" Daniel chuckled, seeing through Aaron's intentions. "That sounds interesting! What are the rules?"

"The same rules as last time," Aaron replied coldly. "You can't be chicken now, right?"

"Don't worry! A real man can lose just about anything but his guts. Men have to have the courage to stand tall in this world!" Daniel replied firmly. "Okay then, let's keep this gamble going!" Aaron affirmed.

"Great!" Daniel said, nodding. "The specifics of your bet?"

"You claim this original stone can yield Golden Jade. I say it can only produce yellow jade worth maybe a million at best!" Aaron asserted conservatively.

"Alright, but what are we betting on here?" Daniel asked with curiosity.

"The deal is this: If your stone is cut and yields a piece of true Golden Jade valued at $80 million or more you win. If not, you lose! If you're wrong, you'll bow down twice to me. If you're right, I'll bow twice to you. Fair enough?"

"Totally fair. If I'm going to lose to you, I should at least give you some respect!" Daniel agreed.
