Chapter 137

Everyone except Manuel was extremely surprised.

Only Manuel felt that he had a very secure bet, and indeed it turned out to be a ghost face. Moreover, this ghost face had a good appearance, with balanced features and a glossy texture.

This ghost face was even better in appearance compared to the previous one resembling an eight-legged spider.

Those who had bought the scentedwood piece with the spider face from Manuel and Oliver earlier had their eyes wide open, exclaiming, “Wow, you’ve hit the mark again.”

Their luck was indeed too good. Many people had lost their bets, but they managed to hit two in a row.

“Mr. Camden, I’d like this piece too. How about I bet with you? You’ve only made the first cut. I’ll offer you 40,000 dollars. You spent only about 10,000 or 12,000 dollars on this piece, so you’ll make a pure profit of over 20,000!”

Manuel didn’t consult Oliver this time. He glanced at the piece of scentedwood with several lines marked on it by Oliver and immediately shook his head, and declined, “Thanks a lot, my friend. I still want to take a gamble. Sir, cut it again.”

Seeing that Manuel was undeterred, the buyer thought of the earlier piece of scentedwood that had earned him a tidy profit of 200 thousand dollars. Even if all the pieces he later bid on turned out to be losses, he had already recouped his initial investment with that one piece.

As the second cut began, Manuel stared intently, and at first sight, he spotted the ghost face on the cut surface.

Oliver was indeed a highly skilled expert in identifying things!

Manuel was overjoyed and couldn’t help but laugh heartily when the second cut revealed another ghost face. This ghost face was even better in appearance compared to the piece he had bought previously. The other buyer could only smile wryly.

Even though only two cuts had been made, the appearance of the ghost face on this scentedwood piece already exceeded the 40,000 dollars he had offered. It was easily worth at least 100,000 dollars or more.

Needless to say, these two buyers wouldn’t stop at this point. They would continue with the remaining cuts.
