Chapter 27 Rare Imperial Ice Jade
“Is this Gem Wizard guy a big deal?‘ asked William.
“Very!” Tia replied in a slightly serious tone. “He debuted at the age of 15 and dabbled in stone gambling. He had far more wins than losses, and he had accumulated hundreds of millions in property by the time he was 20. At the age of 30, people were already calling him the Gem Wizard. I heard that as long as it’s good–quality jade, he’ll never miss it.”
William raised an eyebrow. “Since he’s so good at it, he should be filthy rich by now, right?”
Tia replied, “He didn’t get rich, though, and he currently has hundreds of millions in debt. You see, he not only loves stone gambling, but he also loves regular gambling as well
William understood immediately as he said, “So he’s addicted to gambling.”
“That’s why you have to be careful,” Tia said.
You’re the one who has to be careful. If I lose, you’ll have to marry Mr. Young over there, uttered William. Josh walked over to them gleefully and said to Tia, “What will it be. Tia? With Cesar here, you should get that guy to admit defeat while he can. Be a good girl and just marry into the Young Family.”
Tia snapped back, “Josh, the game hasn’t even started yet. Get off your high horse.”
Hearing her words, Josh laughed. “I can’t help feeling good whenever I think about you becoming my wife!” Then, he stopped smiling and glared at William, saying, “Kid, there’s still time for you to back out.”
William responded, “You’re so full of nonsense. No wonder Tia doesn’t like you.”
Josh’s expression turned cold. “Just wait and see!”
He dragged Cesar to the side to pick out the stones. William paid them no mind as he walked inside leisurely. When he passed by the small yard, he asked, “Are there stones in here as well?”
“Of course, and they’re all stones worth hundreds of millions. However, this yard will only be open to the public during the stone gambling festival. When the time comes, stone gamblers from all over the world. will participate. If you’re interested, we can come and have a look ourselves.”
Josh seemed to be absolutely confident that he would win this gamble, so he didn’t care about the price as he allowed Cesar to choose whatever he liked.
Seeing Josh’s nonchalant attitude, Tia suggested, “Josh, since you’re gambling stones, you should set a limit. The total price of purchase for both parties shouldn’t exceed 5 million each.”
Josh said indifferently, “No problem! No matter what, you’re already mine, Tia.”
“Keep dreaming. Tia couldn’t help but smirk.
Before she could finish speaking, Cesar spoke up. “Mr. Young, this is the one.”
It was a black jade ore from a secondary deposit. It weighed more than 200 pounds, and it was quite huge. There was an obvious hint of green on its surface, and it was worth 4.98 million!

Chapter 27 Rare Imperial Ice Jade
William from time to time with a smug expression on his face.
William ignored him. He looked at a few ores but wasn’t satisfied with them. The ores were expensive, yes, but the jade within was limited.
The jade merchants were too clever these days. Every ore in the Supreme Area was already appraised by professionals, and the merchants had a confident guess of how much the ores would be priced. So, it actually was quite difficult to find a jade so premium.
After looking for a bit, he felt dizzy again, so he subconsciously rubbed his temples. His action worried Tia slightly. “It’s okay. Take your time.” It was obvious that she was faking her calmness, and she was actually on pins and needles.
William replied, “I guess it’s not easy to get rich on stone gambling either. These ores aren’t really worth more than their price.”
“Of course.” The lady agreed with his sentiment. “If you buy 10 ores at random, you’re already considered quite lucky if you can get 2 worth more than their price.”
As they spoke, they passed by the northeast corner of the yard. William spotted dozens of variably sized leftovers from cut stones piled haphazardly in the corner.
