Stone Gambling

"What are you looking at?"

"I think that man's figure is a little similar."

"The big boss behind the harbor must be respected by all European gangs. It's not easy for us to get in. Besides, this man is a little short, so he shouldn't be the boss."

The tattooed man hesitated for a moment when he heard this, but he decided to take the risk when he thought of the importance of this matter. "I still think something's not right. Let's go and have coffee too!"

Seeing this, his companion, the bald man, had no choice but to follow him into the hotel.

On the other hand, the two people hiding behind the plants in the coffee shop watched as the gang members were about to enter the hotel. The man took a wooden box from his arms and secretly stuffed it into Vivian's hands. "Please help me take care of them. I'll come to you later."

The man did not care if Vivian agreed or not. He barged out, deliberately making a sound to attract the attention of the thugs, and then ran out of the coffee shop.

Vivian looked helplessly at the box left behind by the other party.

The other party didn't leave any information, but he acted as if he would definitely find her. This meant that the other party was not a simple person. She didn't dare to deal with him casually. She could only stuff the things into her bag and leave as if nothing had happened.

The next day at 10 am, Vivian arrived at the jewelry store on time.

In order to hide her traces and delay the time of being found, Vivian deliberately changed her dress. Her long hair was tied up behind her head, and she wore a black gauze beret hat on her head, covering her face. The neatly cut white dress with a butterfly diamond brooch immediately reflected her low-key luxury.

Benedict, who had been waiting at the gate, did not recognize her until Vivian greeted him. He immediately went up to welcome her to the stone gambling yard.

As the saying went, "One cut to be poor or one cut to be rich," it referred to stone gambling. Even in 2022, there was no instrument that could detect whether there was Jade in the stone. Even the most experienced master had made a mistake.

There were many people who lost everything in the stone gambling den, and there were also many who became rich overnight. It was all because of experience and luck.

When Vivian arrived, there were already more than a dozen men in haute couture suits inside. Some of them had even brought along old masters who knew how to appraise raw stones. Vivian was the only woman present.

Pierre looked at Vivian's arrival and said with disdain, "Why are women coming here to join the fun?"

"Women should just choose from the jewelry counter in front of them, not come to this fighting arena filled with smoke. This is not a game. People who don't know the industry would better throw the money into the water than spend it here. At least they can hear the sound." Another man chimed in and teased.

A few people laughed when they heard this.

Benedict's forehead was covered in sweat when he heard the men's teasing. One was a potentially big customer, and the other was a senior customer in the store. He could not afford to offend either!

When Vivian heard these men's words, she only smiled contemptuously. She would let them know what it felt like to be slapped in the face later.

There were three ten-meter-long tables in the room, and hundreds of stones of different sizes were scattered on the tables. Vivian walked to the table closest to her and asked, "Benedict, how do you play the game in this stone gambling den?"

Benedict, who had no idea how to smooth things over, immediately introduced the stones to Vivian, trying to change the topic. "Miss Vivian, the stones on the far left table are 800 Yuan each, and the stones in the second row behind are 1.500 Yuan each. The last row is the stone that our appraisers have selected as the most likely to have good quality. According to the probability and quality of the Jade, we have marked the price next to the stones."

"So expensive!" Vivian was speechless when she heard the price. It was expensive to raise a child. After all, she had not found a way to make money. Although she had 500.000 Yuan and so much jewelry, the initial investment was huge. She was still poor, and she had to save it.

"Tsk, if you don't understand the industry, then you won't know how to do it." Pierre activated his taunt skill again.
