The old farmer frowned and walked to the raw stone numbered 049563. After sensing it for a while, he suddenly opened his closed eyes, revealing a hint of surprise. He looked at Ding Ning's back with disdain. He had thought that the guy had some skills, but it turned out that he was just putting on airs because he was rich.
"I've chosen it. That's it!"
The old farmer pointed at the raw stone numbered 049563 and said confidently.
"Uncle Kun, do you want to pick it again? This is a bet of 10 billion! "
Gu Yongxuan reminded him with some worry.
"Don't worry. Believe me, we will win this time!"
The old farmer said with great confidence. He sensed the extremely rich Spiritual Qi in it and was sure that this raw stone was absolutely the best Imperial Green, and it was not small.
"Since Uncle Kun is so confident, I can rest assured!"
Gu Yongxuan was just worried because the bet was too big. He trusted Uncle Kun's skill of stone gambling very much, so he was relieved immediately.
"I'm ready, too!"
After a while, Ding Ning asked the staff to push a raw stone the size of a watermelon back.
Bai Qing and Murong Yanran were a little worried. They pulled him aside and asked worriedly in a low voice, "Why did you choose such a small one? Can you win?"
"Do you really think it's a watermelon? You only choose the big one? Don't worry! "
Ding Ning rolled his eyes angrily and waved his hand indifferently.
"Haha!"
After closing his eyes for a long time, the old farmer couldn't help laughing when he opened his eyes.
Gu Yongxuan's eyes lit up and he asked softly, "Uncle Kun, what are you laughing at?"
"I'm laughing at the fact that we will win. I thought that the guy is a master of stone gambling. It turns out that he is just a half-baked nouveau riche. Yongxuan, just wait for the money!"
The old farmer used the earth element to sense the raw stone chosen by Ding Ning and found that there was almost negligible Spiritual Qi in it. Instantly, he felt reassured and said confidently.
"That's great!"
Gu Yongxuan's uneasy heart immediately calmed down. If he had not been afraid that Ding Ning would suddenly change the raw stone, he would have laughed at him. At this moment, he could only hold back the ecstasy in his heart and pretend to be calm. He would enjoy Ding Ning's lost and pitiful look when the result was revealed.
Ten billion! Even if the assets under his name were far from less than this number, ten billion in cash was still an astronomical figure for him. It filled his heart with enthusiasm.
"Now that we've made our choice, who do you think we should cut first?"
Gu Yongxuan asked hypocritically as he was confident of his victory.
"Whatever. If you can't do it, then do mine first!"
Ding Ning waved his hand lightly, looking like a spendthrift, which made Gu Yongxuan sneer secretly. "Let's see how long you can pretend."
The stone-cutting master conscientiously put the raw stone selected by Ding Ning on the stone-cutting machine and began to cut it. He cut it diagonally along the edge.
"Whoosh! There's no green, nothing at all. "
The crowd suddenly burst into an uproar, looking at Ding Ning with pity in their eyes.
Those stone-gambling masters even shook their heads and sighed, muttering, "It's over, it's over, it's over, I'm going to lose again!"
Bai Qing managed to keep calm and said with a frown, "Don't make noise, it's not finished yet."
Murong Yanran was also a little nervous, but she felt that Ding Ning would not fight a battle he was not sure of winning, so she could still keep a calm face.
"Crack!"
The stone-cutting master changed the edge and cut all four corners, but there was still no green. He couldn't help but shake his head secretly. "It seems that the possibility of this raw stone increasing in gambling is very small."
The old farmer had a complacent look on his face. He glanced at Ding Ning, who was calm, with a sneer at the corner of his mouth.
Gu Yongxuan could no longer hide the smile on his face, but in order to maintain his public image, he didn't hit Ding Ning while he was down.
"Master, cut from the middle!"
Ding Ning shouted and immediately attracted everyone's attention.
"It seems that you are anxious!"
The old farmer smiled proudly and said mockingly.
"Is there nothing in that raw stone?"
Gu Yongxuan asked in a relaxed mood.
"Yes, but it won't be anything good. At most, we won't lose money!"
The old farmer said indifferently, but it made Gu Yongxuan's mood fluctuate greatly, and he was very excited.
"Crack!"
"Alas! It seems that he will definitely lose! "
"Ten billion, gone like this!"
"Poor young man, it's ten billion!"
"Even if there is jade in the remaining two wastes, I'm afraid that he will definitely lose."
…
The stone-cutting machine directly cut from the middle, and the crowd was in an uproar again. They looked at Ding Ning with sympathy, pity, mockery, or gloating eyes.
Cold sweat oozed from Ding Ning's forehead, and he said exasperatedly, "Impossible, this is absolutely impossible. Master, please step aside, and I will cut it myself!"
The stone-cutting master gave up his position expressionlessly. Every year, he had seen many gamblers who lost in stone gambling and had long been numb to it. This young man could still maintain basic manners at this time, which made him look at him with new eyes.
"Hum, hum, hum!"
The stone-cutting machine kept bursting out sparks on the raw stone, and Ding Ning kept cutting like a crazy man who didn't believe in evil. No jade … no jade … still no jade …
Bai Qing and Murong Yanran were ashen-faced, and they knew that this time Ding Ning was really defeated. Ten billion! Even with their wealth, they would feel extremely painful.
"Forget it, Fourth Brother. If you admit defeat, I will pay for it!"
Bai Qing didn't want to see Ding Ning lose his composure, so he gritted his teeth and pulled him.
"No, I don't believe that I will make a mistake!"
Ding Ning pushed Bai Qing away as if he was possessed by the devil, and he continued to cut the leftovers that had been cut into eight pieces with red eyes!
"Boy, admit defeat. You haven't cut out anything. According to the rules, you have already lost!"
Gu Yongxuan said hypocritically with pity and sympathy on his face, but his eyes were full of excitement and complacency that could not be concealed.
"Can I surrender and lose half of it?"
Ding Ning raised his head with a desperate face, and asked pitifully.
"What did you say? I can't hear you! "
Gu Yongxuan had the posture of a winner. He tilted his head and pointed at his ears, and his eyes were full of ridicule.
Bai Qing's face changed, and he shouted coldly, "Fourth Brother, a loss is a loss. Don't let others look down on you!"
Ding Ning smiled, and his smile was extremely relaxed and confident. He shook his head gently and sighed. "Alas, I wanted to leave you a way out. Since you plan to kill me, I have nothing to feel guilty about."
After saying that, he cut down the stone-cutting machine in his hand.
"It's green! It's green!"
A sharp-eyed audience exclaimed involuntarily, causing a tsunami of cheers on the spot. It seemed that human nature subconsciously sympathized with the weak.
"So what if it's green? It's so big. Unless it's the best imperial green, there's only a slight possibility of winning. "
"Yes, you are happy too early. Even if it's green, he will lose without a doubt!"
"Alas, it's useless even if it's green. He will still lose the game."
"That's hard to say. What if nothing comes out from that side?"
"How is it possible? That old farmer is very powerful. More than a dozen stone-gambling masters from Yan Jing have been defeated by him. "
"How dare he go to Liangshan without a little bit of knowledge? This young man is bound to lose!"
…
With the discussion of the crowd, Bai Qing and Murong Yanran's spirits, which had just been raised, wilted like a frosted eggplant. Now they could only hope that Ding Ning cut out a piece of the best imperial green, so that they might have a glimmer of hope.
Unfortunately, the jade that Ding Ning cut out was only of the green bean type with average quality. That piece was even worse, about the size of a quail egg.
If it was just a normal stone-gambling, Ding Ning's bet was a gain. After all, that raw stone was very cheap, only worth several hundred yuan, while the green bean type quail egg could be sold for thousands of yuan.
"Hahaha, I'm dying of laughter. Brother, are you a clown sent by a monkey? You almost scared me to death! "
Gu Yongxuan was so scared by Ding Ning's words that he almost fainted. He thought that Ding Ning could cut out an imperial green, but he didn't expect that it was just a green bean type. He immediately covered his stomach and laughed so hard that his tears came out.
"What's so funny? At least I got a gain!"
Ding Ning rolled his eyes grumpily, with a stubborn expression.
"Well, don't be long-winded. Thank you for your patronage. I'll accept the 10 billion yuan!"
Gu Yongxuan didn't bother to bicker with Ding Ning and reached out his hand to ask for the bet.
"Why?"
Ding Ning covered his pocket and looked at Gu Yongxuan vigilantly, looking like a miser.
"What? You want to repudiate your debt? You don't want to admit your loss? It's not easy to repudiate my debt! "
Gu Yongxuan's face darkened, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.
"Fourth Brother, don't make trouble. If you agree to bet, you must accept your loss. The money is on me."
Bai Qing couldn't stand it anymore. He hurried forward to pull Ding Ning and was about to take out his card to pay.
"Don't worry, Childe Gu. Which eye of yours saw that I repudiate my debt?"
Ding Ning pulled Bai Qing behind him, narrowed his eyes, and sneered.
"Which eye of mine saw it? Everyone here saw it. You lost. If you don't pay, what is it if you don't repudiate your debt?"
Gu Yongxuan felt a little guilty under Ding Ning's gaze. He took two steps back subconsciously, but then he remembered that so many people were watching. He couldn't help but roar with a red face and ears.
"Yes, young man. If you agree to bet, you must accept your loss. This is a matter of credibility!"
"It's not a good behavior to repudiate your debt. This will be reviled in our stone-gambling world."
"If it were me, I would also repudiate my debt. That's not one million yuan, it's 10 billion yuan!"
"Tsk, try to repudiate your debt. There are rules of stone-gambling, unless you never gamble on stones again."
"Damn, if I can repudiate my debt, I won't touch stone-gambling for the rest of my life."
…
As the crowd discussed, Gu Yongxuan's smile became wider and wider. "The eyes of the crowd are bright. What else do you have to say now?"
"Bright? What the f * ck! "
Ding Ning's words stirred up a thousand ripples and aroused the public anger of the crowd at the scene. They all scolded, "Damn, you want to be a repudiator? I will beat you to death!"
"Damn, you are so ill-mannered. You don't admit your loss and even dare to scold us."
"What a rubbish. Childe Gu, we support you and testify for you. If he dares to repudiate his debt today, we will break his legs."
…
The crowd scolded one after another, making Bai Qing and Murong Yanran's faces extremely pale. They didn't know what was wrong with Ding Ning. It was okay to offend Gu Yongxuan, but why did he provoke the crowd's anger?
"Shut the f * ck up! Did I say anything wrong? Do you all have dog eyes? The gambling is not over yet. They haven't even cut the Primordial Stone. How can you say I lost? "
Ding Ning shouted angrily, but his voice was so penetrating that it rang clearly in everyone's ears, making the noisy scene silent instantly. "Yes, the gambling is not over yet. They haven't cut the Primordial Stone yet. How can you say I lost?"
"You lost without cutting the Primordial Stone. Why are you so arrogant?"
A strong man who had clamored to break Ding Ning's legs seemed to be a little annoyed by Ding Ning's rudeness and shouted unhappily.
"You are not convinced, are you? Come on, come on, come over and make a bet with me. "
