Henry skillfully peeled off the surface

around the stone and cut off a pile of stone

chips.

As the surface was cut off, the things

inside the stone slowly appeared. This was

a milk-white square, about three

centimetres in size, without any gloss.

"Is this.. a crystal?" Someone guessed

with a frown when he saw the white square

item.

"No way! Isn't it a great loss to find such a

thing?"

"That's true, but it's the first time l've seen

a crystal cut out from this stone."

"Bad luck!"

Looking at what had been cut out from the

stone, everyone spoke.

Henry took the square item in his hand and

examined it carefully, but he couldn't find

any clues. Henry was sure that this was not

any known mineral. This crystal gave him a

feeling that it was very similar to a ire

Crystal.

On the second floor, the man and the

woman stood by the window and stared at

the small white crystal in Henry's hand with

burning eyes.

"Sure enough, there it is!" The young man

clenched his fists tightly.

"Brother, are you going to take an action?"

The long-haired woman asked, and her big

eyes were full of intentions.

The young man shook his head slightly.

"No need to hurry. There are too many

people. Keep an eye on him. When there

are fewer people, we will take action!"

In the lobby on the first floor.

Henry stared at the white crystal in his

hand for a long time, but he didn't

understand what it was. He simply put it

away and planned to give it to Future to do

research.

"Hahaha! It's so interesting. He bought

such a shabby stone with three million

yuan. How can you still gamble on stones

like this? Are you here to lose money

deliberately?" Karl laughed loudly.

The people around also shook their heads

regretfully. Three million was gone just like

that. How worth was this crystal? 50 or 100

yuan?

Amy also felt distressed.

The old man on the stage saw that

everyone was focused, and then the

auction continued.

Then the starting price of each piece of

stone that the old man took out was over

100,000 yuan, and the final bidding price

was close to 200,000 yuan. It could be

said that every time it was a big gamble

200,000 yuan in Yinzhou was enough to

pay the down payment for a house.

Among them, Amy wanted to take action

many times, but Henry persuaded her not

to do so.

"Gentlemen, this is second to last jade

stone of today's auction. It's still waiting

for you to pay attention." The old man took

out a jade stone. The surface of the whole

stone was green, and the stone was about

the size of a human face.

This kind of coloured stone was very rare

type of Emperor Stone.

"Everyone, the starting price of this

Emperor Stone is 120,000 yuan, and each

raise mustn't be less than 2,000 yuan."

"125,000!"

"127,000!"

130,000!"

As soon as the old man's voice ended, the

bidding was endless. For this kind of a

green stone, the possibility of finding fine

jade was very high. If it was gently rubbed,

the whole stone would be a green jade. f

there was such a large piece, it would

definitely be worth a lot of money.

Everyone couldn't help but take a risk.

"140,000!"

"150,000!"

"200,000"

The price soared all the way from the

starting price to the price of two hundred

thousand in almost dozens of seconds. In

this way, the bidding sound was still rising.

"YOu can take this one. You can bid for it."

Henry sat there, staring at the stone on the

stage. After looking at it for a while, he said

to Amy.

Amy had been waiting for Henry's words

for a long time.

When the price rose to 250,000 yuan,

fewer and fewer people were bidding in the

hall.

"Everyone, 250,000 yuan for the first

time." The old man on the stage looked

around and said.

There was a heated discussion among the

audience, but no one made a sound to bid.

"Two hundred and fifty thousand yuan, the

second time," the old man said loudly

again.

The audience looked at each other, but still

no one spoke. It seemed that this stone

was going to be sold at a price of 250,000

yuan.

"Two hundred and fifty thousand, the

third."

"260,000!" There was a crisp female voice

under the stage.

"Amy Zhang, you are crazy!" Karl widened

his eyes and stared at the woman sitting

next to him.

Amy's father also turned his head with a

puzzled look and looked at his daughter.

It was Amy who shouted out the 260,000

yuan bid.

Amy had just called out the price. The man

who had bought the stone with 250,000

yuan before said again, "Two hundred and

seventy thousand yuan"

Amy was about to continue to raise the

price when her father stopped her. "Don't

shout! Where are you going to get so much

money?"

"Amy Zhang, I won't pay for this stone if it

is more than two hundred thousand yuan!"

Karl said specifically.

"No ne ed." Amy looked at Karl

indifferently. "I have money myself."

"Money? Where are you going to take the

money?" Amy's father snapped.

"Dad, I kept the money you gave me

before, and there are five hundred

thousand left." Amy answered

apologetically, "I didn't tell you. I just

wanted to leave a way out for our family."

"The way out?" Karl frowned. "Amy Zhang,

what do you mean? Do you think that 1,

Karl Ban, don't deserve you?"

"Amy Zhang, don't make trouble!" Amy's

father scolded, and then said to Karl, "This

girl is not sensible. I will educate her. Don't

take it to heart."

Amy shook her head, looked at the stage,

and continued to say, "Two hundred and

eighty thousand!"

"300,000!" The person who had just bid

continued.

Seeing that the stone, which was going to

be sold at 250,000 yuan, had been added

with more than 50,000 yuan in a blink of an

eye, everyone sighed with emotion.

However, compared to the scene of Henry

hitting three million yuan just now, it had

not much impact on the crowd.

Amy looked at Henry with questioning

eyes.

"Raise." Henry only said one word.

After Amy heard Henry's words, she took a

deep breath and said, "350,000!"

"Don't make trouble! Are you done yet?"

Amy's father scolded.

"Amy Zhang, are you going to listen to this

idiot's words and bid for this stone? What

kind of bidding did he make just now?

Didn't you see it?" Karl said, "350,000

yuan. According to my experience, nothing

can be found in this stone. Don't think

about calling me for help!"

"This lady bid 350,000 yuan. Is there any

other higher price?" The old man stood on

the stage and said loudly, looking at the

person who was bidding.

The audience was silent for a few seconds.

"Four hundred thousand!"

"Well, sir, your price is 400,000 yuan!

400,000 yuan for the first time!" The old

man didn't wait much this time and

shouted directly. It was a very common

auction method.

"Just call me 500,000 yuan." Henry said to

Amy.

"500,000!"

For this amount, Amy's body was trembling

slightly. In fact, when the other party

shouted 400,000 yuan, she already

wanted to give up. If she bet 200,000 or

300,000 yuan once, even if she lost, she

Would stll have some money. But if the

500,000 yuan was lost, she would have

nothing left.
