The Understated Dragon Lord novel Chapter 964

Once Grant finished, he looked pointedly at Daniel, taunting, “So, what’s it going to be, country boy? Are you in or out?”

“I’m definitely in! Why would I back down? I’ll come out on top, just wait until we cut this stone open. I know it’ll give us Golden Jade worth millions.”

Daniel grinned at Grant, anticipating victory.

“Guess what? If I win, Aaron bows to me, and you will too. I’m looking forward to that!”

“You’re dreaming, country boy! You can't win! It’s impossible! Three victories in a row? It just won’t happen!”

“You’re absolutely right, Grant. If luck was on my side, a third win would be tough. But the truth is, my skill in jade gambling isn’t luck—it's talent. Luck leads to losses. In a hundred bets, you’d lose ninety-nine!”

As Daniel spoke, the worker began cutting into the stone with a buzzing electric saw.

With the sound of the saw, everyone’s attention turned to the original stone as it slowly revealed what lay beneath.

For precisely half an hour, the stone was cut carefully. When it finally opened, it appeared gray.

Grant practically fell over from laughter. “Hahaha!

Once he got his breath back, he mockingly faced Daniel. “You really thought this shabby thing could yield Golden Jade? Look and behold—this is just a dull gray rock! There’s no way it could ever be worth $1 million, let alone $80 million!”

“Hold on there, Grant! Patience! Don’t judge too quickly. It may look ugly now, but this really is Golden Jade. It just hasn’t been cleaned yet.”

“You’re kidding. What is cleaning going to do for it?” Grant scoffed.

“This requires the right liquid for cleaning, and here in the U.S., there’s only one choice: vodka!” Daniel responded with a grin, turning to the worker. “Get me two bottles of vodka!”
