Chapter 67 - A High Stakes Bet



Chapter 67: A High Stakes Bet

“Hehe, since you guys are so arrogant, why don’t we have a competition? Let me see if you two rookies can compare to these trashes!”

As soon as Jiang Zhong said this, the people behind him looked a little dissatisfied. Although they knew that Jiang Zhong was challenging Ding Hao and the others, they did not like being called “trash”. It was a slap in their faces.

And everyone knew how it felt to be slapped in the face.

A bet?

Gu Qingchen looked up. Her eyes were clear and bright. A glint flashed across her eyes, and her lips curled into a playful smile.

“Bet? How do you want to bet?”

Jiang Zhong’s eyes darkened, “Since everyone is here to buy raw stone, why don’t we have a competition to see who can buy more raw stone, whose raw stone is more valuable, and whose raw stone can produce more jade! How about it? Do you dare to compete with us?”

Jiang Zhong looked confident, as if victory was within his grasp.

They had more people on their side, and they were all experts in jade for many years. With just Ding Hao and this little kitten, the chances of winning against them were practically zero.

Shen Dongyang seemed to have seen through Jiang Zhong’s intentions, and his expression suddenly changed, and he said smugly, “That’s right, do you dare to compete? Don’t be a coward!”

Shen Dongyang showed how a weakling be a bully under the protection of a powerful man.

Gu Qingchen smiled. Her pair of eyes seemed to have seen through Jiang Zhong and the others’ thoughts. It made people feel ashamed of their inferiority.

“Okay, it seems fair. Today I’ll let you see the difference between trash and elites. I’ll also give you a warning. Don’t think that you’re arrogant just because you’ve been in this industry for a long time. Don’t think that you’re a big shot.” Gu Qingchen didn’t use any dirty words and sounded like a heroine.

Jiang Zhong took a few deep breaths. His gloomy eyes seemed to eat Gu Qingchen up. He put on a fake smile and said, “Haha, since it’s a competition, there must be a bet. Mr. Ding, you won’t back down, will you?”

Jiang Zhong wanted to crush Ding Hao. He wanted to set up a trap for Ding Hao so that he could completely steal Ding Hao’s title as the jewelry and jade tycoon in City Y.

As for Gu Qingchen, he had many ways to punish this little girl.

Ding Hao was slightly stunned. He knew how unfair this competition was. It could be said that if he gambled, he would definitely lose. Even if Gu Qingchen and Gu Yuanchuan helped him, it was impossible for him to win against so many people like Jiang Zhong.

Choosing raw stone depended not only on luck, but also on manpower.

It took a lot of time and energy to determine whether a piece of raw stone contain jade or not, and it also consumed a lot of manpower. Therefore, every time such a large-scale jade gathering was held, many professionals would bring helpers with them.

Let’s put it this way. The other party had 10 people, but Ding Hao was alone. He be faster than them if both parties were choosing 100 raw stones at the same time.

Only a shameless guy like Jiang Zhong would be so shameless to suggest such a method of competition.

However, it was hard to back down at this moment. Gu Qingchen and Gu Yuanchuan had been helping Ding Hao, and Gu Qingchen had already agreed. If he backed down now, wouldn’t it be very disrespectful to Gu Qingchen.

At the same time, if he really backed down, Jiang Zhong would spread the news. Ding Hao’s jewelry shop would probably be ridiculed by others.

Gu Qingchen knew the worry in Ding Hao’s heart, “Mr. Ding, which is more valuable, ten pieces of waxy jadeite or one piece of high-grade glass species jadeite?”

“Of course it’s the high-grade glass species jadeite! Not to mention ten pieces of waxy jadeite, even a hundred pieces, a thousand pieces, or ten thousand pieces of waxy jadeite can’t compare to a high-grade glass species jadeite.” Ding Hao subconsciously blurted it out. He saw Gu Qingchen’s smiling eyes. After thinking for a while, he was enlightened.

That’s right, they did not have to be afraid of Jiang Zhong’s group just because they had more people. Only their skills matter the most. He was really intimidated by Jiang Zhong’s people for a moment.

“Okay, let’s compete.”

Jiang Zhong suddenly had a feeling that his trick had succeeded. He laughed so hard that it was disgusting.

“Since we are all colleagues in City Y, how about this? If I lose, My Jiang Jewelry will quit City Y, and I never step into this industry again. But… Hehe, if you lose, you will also withdraw from City Y and never step into this industry again. How about that?”

Hiss!

It became a really high stakes bet.

Gu Yuanchuan frowned and looked at Ding Hao with a worried face. He knew that Jiang Zhong was not targeting him or his daughter, Gu Qingchen. Jiang Zhong was targeting Ding Hao.

Even if Gu Qingchen did not agree to the competition, Jiang Zhong would think of other ways to deal with Ding Hao.

Ding Hao knew that Jiang Zhong had many dirty little tricks to kick him out of business. He could still win if he competed openly with Jiang Zhong. If he did not compete with Jiang Zhong this time, who knows what else Jiang Zhong would do in the dark.

It was easy to dodge an open spear, but difficult to guard against an arrow in the dark.

Since they were going to face each other no matter what, it was better to face them head-on.

Ding Hao could not lose his integrity!

“Humph, don’t think that I don’t know that you’re doing something despicable behind my back. Okay, I, Ding Hao, will make a bet with you today. The jade fair will last for three days. Within these three days, we’ll bet on who will buy the highest value of raw stones!”

Jiang Zhong thought for a moment. Although this was a little different from what he had said at the beginning, he believed that Ding Hao and the other two would not stand a chance against twenty of them.

“Boss Ding is really straightforward. Alright, let’s use these three days as the limit. After it ends, we’ll see who wins or loses. The one who loses will withdraw from City Y and the jade industry.”

Jiang Zhong was very excited. When he spoke, there was an uncontrollable smile on his face.

“Wait.”

Gu Qingchen interrupted Jiang Zhong at this time. Jiang Zhong then looked at Gu Qingchen. Although there was displeasure on his face, he did not say anything bad.

“What do you want now?”

Gu Qingchen said with a playful look, “This is just a competition between the two of you. The bet is only beneficial to you.”

Hearing Gu Qingchen’s words, Jiang Zhong sneered and raised his eyebrows. “What? Do you want to get some benefits?”

Gu Qingchen’s expression didn’t change. She said slowly, “Since we’re betting, I want more benefit. You’re the same, right?”

Jiang Zhong smiled contemptuously and asked, “Alright. Tell me, what do you want?”

“It’s very simple. If you lose, you will give me all the raw stones you buy. So will I if I lose.”

“Hehe, you really have a big appetite!”

Jiang Zhong did not expect Gu Qingchen to actually want the raw stoned he bought. After all, he was going to buy a large number of raw stones this time.

Gu Qingchen smiled. “Boss Jiang, you want to monopolize the jewelry and jade business in City Y, so your appetite is much bigger than mine. How about it? Boss Jiang, do you have the guts to make the bet?”

“Humph, why not! Let’s make a bet. Do you think I’m afraid of a little girl like you? Just you wait, you’re going to lose for sure.”

Jiang Zhong was very confident, as if he saw victory beckoning to him.

Gu Qingchen nodded and said, “Why don’t we find someone to be the witness, so that you won’t bite back your words if you lose.”

Pfft!

Ding Hao burst into laughter. He really liked Gu Qingchen’s personality. Anyway, he had succeeded in making Jiang Zhong angry.
