Xie Junyan and Gou Junfa couldn't help but look at each other when they heard that Ling Yun had no money. They could see the excitement in each other's eyes! Ling Yun really couldn't fork out a hundred million!
The two of them fiercely spat out the stuffy breath they had been holding in their chests. They stood up at the same time agitatedly, their eyes red!
What did Xie Junyan and Gou Junfa have to be afraid with Song Zhengyang taking the lead? Especially Gou Junfa. He laughed dryly and pointed at Ling Yun's nose. "Ling Yun, you were the one who forced us to bet, weren't you? You were the one who said that we would bet a hundred million, weren't you? You were the one who mocked us for not being able to fork out a hundred million! "
"Now that we have a hundred million, you say that you don't have any money? Let's not talk about your character first. The witness tonight is Uncle Song. I don't think you have any respect for Uncle Song at all! "
Gou Junfa had an undisguised smirk and disdain on his face. He directly pulled Song Zhengyang to his side and started to criticize Ling Yun!
Tang Meng's face was filled with embarrassment. Ling Yun had been suppressing Gou Junfa and Xie Junyan ever since he arrived. However, Ling Yun said that he didn't have any money now that the bet was in place. Tang Meng wanted to refute, but he couldn't find a reason to do so. He could only think of a way to explain to Song Zhengyang.
Tang Meng knew that Ling Yun was good at fighting, but this was a bet. It wouldn't be a glorious thing even if he won and left. It would be embarrassing if word got out.
Just when Tang Meng was about to explain to Song Zhengyang, Ling Yun suddenly spoke.
Ling Yun sat there calmly as if he was watching a circus. He couldn't help but laugh at Gou Junfa and Xie Junyan's excited and arrogant behavior.
What a bunch of idiots!
"I say, can't you two just sit there and be quiet? I haven't even finished speaking. Why are you guys making a fuss? "
Ling Yun turned to Song Zhengyang and smiled. "Uncle Song, don't be angry. They haven't collected the hundred million yet, right? Please sit down first. Since I'm here to gamble, I promise I won't make things difficult for you! "
Song Zhengyang couldn't figure out what Ling Yun was up to when he saw how calm and composed Ling Yun was. However, he felt that Ling Yun wasn't someone without a plan. Hence, he nodded slightly and sat down again.
Ling Yun gave Song Zhengyang a reassuring smile and said to Tang Meng, "Tang Meng, give me your jacket. I'm going out to get something."
Not to mention Song Zhengyang, even Tang Meng didn't know how Ling Yun was going to get the hundred million. He took off his jacket and passed it to Ling Yun out of trust.
"Excuse me, Uncle Song, please excuse me!" Ling Yun got up with a smile and walked out of the room.
Gou Junfa shouted from behind Ling Yun. "Ling Yun, don't tell me that you can't fork out a hundred million yuan? Are you trying to escape now? Hahahaha … "
Ling Yun suddenly turned around and said with a faint smile, "Little dog, I think you've forgotten the pain now that your wounds have healed. Are you itching for a beating again? Do you really think I won't dare to hit you? "
Gou Junfa's laughter was stuck in his throat. His smile froze on his face.
Not bothering with Gou Junfa any longer, Ling Yun quickly arrived at the exit of the private room. Taking a few quick steps, he arrived at a secluded area and covered Tang Meng's jacket with his left hand. With a single thought, the Psychic Jade Box appeared in his hand.
Although the Psychic Jade Box was covered by Tang Meng's black jacket, it still shone with a bright green light as it came out of the spatial ring. Everything around it was shimmering with a beautiful green light.
This Psychic Jade Box was about twenty-four centimeters long, eighteen centimeters wide, and twelve centimeters tall. It was the size of two red bricks stacked together. It looked like a huge seal if it wasn't opened. It was very heavy to hold in one's hand.
Ling Yun smiled as he used Tang Meng's black jacket to wrap the Psychic Jade Box tightly in three layers. Grabbing it with one hand, he returned to the private room.
This was the Psychic Jade Box! A few days ago, Ling Yun almost found a place to sell this jade box for money. Now that this psychic jade box had forty-nine Spirit Gathering Formations carved on it and contained a large amount of Immortal Spiritual Energy, it was a priceless treasure to Ling Yun. Of course, he wouldn't sell it.
Ling Yun wanted to let Song Zhengyang appraise it today since he was the vice president of the Antiques Association and the director of the Jewelry and Jade Association.
At the same time, Ling Yun wanted to test Song Zhengyang's judgment. He would be worthy of Ling Yun's respect if he could see the uniqueness of the jade box. If Song Zhengyang couldn't, then Ling Yun didn't have the time to wait on him patiently.
"Oh, you're back so soon? Did you get the money? "Gou Junfa couldn't help but jeer when he saw Ling Yun return in less than a minute.
Ling Yun strode back to his seat and placed the Psychic Jade Box gently on the table before pushing it in front of Song Zhengyang.
"Uncle Song, please open it and give us an estimate." Ling Yun's lips curled into a harmless smile as he ignored Gou Junfa and the rest of the gang.
Song Zhengyang's expression suddenly turned serious, and his sharp eyes gleamed with excitement.
"What is this object?" Song Zhengyang asked Ling Yun as he rubbed his hands together like he was washing his hands. He didn't unwrap the Psychic Jade Box first.
"Uncle Song, why don't you open it and you'll know?" Ling Yun laughed and said to Song Zhengyang.
Gou Junfa and Xie Junyan were curious as well. They wanted to know what Ling Yun had brought back, and why he was acting so secretive and wrapped it up so tightly.
Let Song Zhengyang estimate its value? Even if you really brought back two gold bars from the outside, they wouldn't be worth a hundred million!
The two of them were fearless and waited quietly for Ling Yun to make a fool of himself.
Song Zhengyang rubbed his hands until they were slightly warm before he began to open Tang Meng's jacket.
Song Zhengyang's hands trembled when he saw a glimmer of green light seeping out from the bottom of the clothes. He was shocked as the Psychic Jade Box was shrouded in green light.
Finally, Song Zhengyang pinched a corner of the jacket and lifted it completely, revealing the Psychic Jade Box in front of everyone!
The green light shone brightly! The entire jade box was sparkling and translucent. Under the dazzling and bright light, it was extremely beautiful. It was a perfect, gorgeous green, so green that it could enchant one's heart!
Song Zhengyang was completely dumbfounded!
He had been in the jewelry and jade business for nearly thirty years. How could he not see that this jade box was the king of all jade? It was the real imperial green jade!
Song Zhengyang had seen the King's Green before, but he had never seen such a big piece of King's Green before!
The Imperial Green Jadeite was bright green in color, as transparent as glass, emitting endless emerald green. It was such a big piece!
"Uncle Song, how much do you think this piece of jade is worth?"
Ling Yun knew that he had a chance when he saw Song Zhengyang's Adam's apple trembling uncontrollably. However, he still pretended to be uneasy and asked.
"This …" Song Zhengyang held the Psychic Jade Box with both hands and looked at it carefully. He didn't have the time to answer Ling Yun's question.
Gou Junfa and Xie Junyan were also shocked by the jade box. However, when they saw that Ling Yun had brought back a valuable item, which was obviously meant to replace the hundred million yuan bet, Gou Junfa was afraid that his efforts would go to waste. He immediately said disdainfully, "Hmph, isn't it just a piece of jade? It can't be worth a hundred million no matter how valuable it is! "
"Shut up!" Song Zhengyang interrupted Gou Junfa's ignorant words coldly with an unfriendly expression.
Song Zhengyang flipped the jade box over and over again for a full minute before putting it back on the table reluctantly.
"Ling Yun, take this back with you. If you can't fork out the one hundred million now, I can help you pay for it!"
Song Zhengyang said to Ling Yun slowly.
"What? This … "
"Ah? What? How, how can this be? "
Xie Junyan and Gou Junfa were dumbfounded by Song Zhengyang's words.
What kind of jade was this? Song Zhengyang dared to give Ling Yun a hundred million yuan just to show it to him without even needing to use it as collateral?
Song Zhengyang knew that Gou Junfa and Xie Junfa were dissatisfied. He cleared his throat and said, "You don't understand. This jade box is the king of all jade in terms of material and color. It's even better than the imperial green jade I know. However, the best jade I've seen is the imperial green jade! You are all knowledgeable people, and I believe you should know that if it is such a big piece of Imperial Green Jade, it is already priceless, or even priceless. Simply put, no one will sell it! "
"Furthermore, based on my observations just now, this jade box has been engraved with very repetitive patterns. The patterns are fine and dense, but they are all traceable. Such carving skill is simply rare!"
Ling Yun knew that the patterns Song Zhengyang was talking about were the forty-nine small spirit gathering formations that he carved with the Human Emperor Brush.
"How can such a rare treasure be used as collateral for a mere hundred million? I'm not afraid of being laughed at, but I wouldn't be able to sleep for twenty-four hours if Ling Yun put this treasure in my hands for a hundred million! "
"Therefore, since I'm a witness and Ling Yun has proved that he has the financial resources to place the bet, I can only help him fork out the hundred million!"
Song Zhengyang's eyes were glued to the Psychic Jade Box. He didn't blink at all, as though missing a glance was akin to missing out on a few million.
"But … But …" Gou Junfa stood there with all his might. He felt that something was amiss, but he could not find a reason for it.
"Why? Don't tell me you don't trust me? "Song Zhengyang was engrossed in admiring the jade. His face darkened after hearing Gou Junfa's words. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for me at Qidian (). Your support is my greatest motivation.) (To be continued.)
