60: Chapter 60: Bet Red Eyes 60: Chapter 60: Bet Red Eyes “It’s green!” As soon as the knife went down, everyone saw a patch of erald green.
Ah!
Jalen Carter stood there, dumbfounded.
“Seventy thousand for .”
A big fat man had already placed a bid on Peter Brown’s stone.
“One hundred thousand!”
Another person also placed a bid.
“Given the green color that’s erged, with good luck, it could be worth millions!”
“We’ll have to see about that.
No one knows for sure.
But there’s a pretty good chance!”
Many people nearby were discussing the stone, and most seed to have a favorable opinion of it.
“For , 110,000.” A man who looked like a boss loudly placed a bid at this ti.
Peter Brown laughed as he watched everyone clamoring to bid.
“Alright, sold for 110,000.”
No one expected Peter Brown to sell it for 110,000, and they all stared in surprise.
“Young man, you’re selling it for too little!”
“Damn, if I could get this kind of money, I would have bid first!”
They all regretted not placing a higher bid on the stone now that Peter Brown had agreed to sell it so quickly.
The boss who placed the winning bid laughed and said loudly, “Here’s the cash, for you.”
He was afraid Peter Brown would change his mind, so he pulled out a large bundle of one hundred thousand dollars from a subordinate’s backpack, as well as a stack of ten thousand dollars, and handed it directly to Peter Brown.
He also took the stone from him.
Seeing his actions, everyone sighed in disappointnt and looked at Peter with pity.
“Peter, why did you sell it?” Maisy Spencer looked at Peter Brown, puzzled.
Peter laughed and said, “Jalen’s stone only reached one hundred thousand at its highest price, and mine was sold for 110,000.
I’ve already won, that’s all that matters.”
Peter then looked at Jalen and said, “You only need to give 110,000.”
Jalen never thought his first gamble would be a loss, especially when Peter sold his stone for 110,000.
He didn’t think Peter was being generous; instead, he believed Peter was intentionally humiliating him.
He beca even angrier with this thought.
With a snort, Jalen didn’t care about the money and said coldly, “I lost this ti, but give your account number and I’ll transfer the money right away.”
Soon, Jalen transferred 110,000 dollars to Peter Brown’s account.
At the ti of their bet, the boss who bought Peter’s stone had already asked soone to help him evaluate the stone.
Everyone wanted to see if the stone’s value would continue to increase.
However, when the evaluation was finished, everyone was stunned to find that the stone had no additional green color at all.
What was going on?
The boss was also baffled.
“Again!”
He ordered loudly.
Another cut, but still nothing.
Eventually, the result was precisely the sa as Jalen’s stone, with just a layer of green.
However, it could be seen that it was not much different from Jalen’s stone, and even worse in so respects.
Seeing the result, the boss was dumbfounded, muttering to himself, “Impossible!”
Jalen also saw the result and was filled with regret.
However, he knew that since Peter had already sold the stone, he had indeed won the bet, and there was no point in regretting it.
“Peter Brown, dare to bet again?”
Jalen suddenly shouted at Peter.
Bet again?
Peter looked at Jalen and said, “This ga is just for fun, if we gamble more, it’ll be too much.”
“Do you dare?” Jalen asked loudly again.
“Jalen, don’t gamble anymore, once is enough.”
Maisy pleaded with him again.
“Jalen, what’s wrong with you, just accept that you lost.”
Sophia Gibson was not happy either.
Hearing Sophia’s words, Jalen felt even more that she was siding with Peter.
His jealousy intensified, and he shouted, “Sophia, are you really going to defend this farr?”
“What’s wrong with being a farr?”
Peter Brown was originally going to let it go, but when he heard Jalen looking down on farrs, he beca angry.
“This ti, let’s bet big.
I saw one of your stones is worth 500,000 dollars.
I’ll choose one worth 500,000 as well, and we’ll bet on those two.
If you don’t dare, just crawl away.”
Peter looked at Jalen and said, “I’m just worried you won’t be able to pay up!”
“Whoever can’t pay, they crawl out!”
“But if my stone ends up being worth billions, and all you do is crawl away, I’d be losing big.”
This ti, Peter didn’t want to let his opponent off easy.
Peter’s 500,000-dollar stone was of Imperial Green quality and could be worth 200-300 million dollars.
He didn’t want to show off before, but now he didn’t mind teaching Jalen a lesson.
When Maisy heard this, her heart skipped a beat for so reason.
She had a feeling Jalen would lose today.
“Jalen, you can’t gamble anymore!
You can’t beat Peter!”
Maisy’s words only fueled Jalen’s jealousy and determination to win.
He took out his bank card and said solemnly, “See this card?
There’s 100 million dollars in it.
As long as you win, I can give you less than 100 million.
If it’s more than 100 million, I’ll give you the money and crawl away too!
Dare to bet?”
Peter shook his head and said, “You’re asking for it.”
“Dare to bet?
If you don’t, just crawl away!”
“Fine, let’s gamble then!”
Peter shook his head again.
“Peter, why did you agree to gamble?”
Sophia stomped her foot.
Professor Smith wanted to say sothing but stayed quiet when he saw Jalen so adamant.
He was curious about Peter’s confidence.
Many people had gathered to see the outco of the high stakes bet now.
This ti, Jalen chose his stones more carefully.
After about half an hour, he finally selected three rough stones and said, “There are no single stones worth 500,000 dollars anymore.
I chose these three, and their prices add up to 500,000.
Is that okay?”
“Whatever.”
Peter didn’t care either.
Many people looked at Jalen with disdain, thinking he had cleverly given himself an advantage by choosing three stones.
Each stone was the sa size as Peter’s, so it seed like Jalen had the upper hand.
“Evaluate the stones!”
Jalen did not care what others thought.
He was determined to win this round no matter what.
By now, the only thought in Jalen’s mind was that he must beat Peter Brown at all costs.
Everyone knew that Jalen was desperate to win this round, but no one knew if he actually could.
