“Mr. Gu Lian, this is your card and receipt. If there’s no problem, please sign here. Because Mr. Gu Cheng didn’t give us his bank card just now, combined with his, it is a total of 40 million yuan.”
Gu Lian quickly signed his name on the receipt and turned his head slightly to look at Gu Cheng. “Then, Uncle, I’ll deduct 10 million yuan from your next dividend. It’s exactly three months.”
After saying that, he did not forget to ask, “You don’t have any objections, right?”
Gu Cheng could only bear the consequences of his own sins.
He smiled until the muscles on his face were about to freeze. He still had to maintain his pitiful face and smile in front of everyone. “Of course I don’t mind. After all, Xiao Lian paid for it. Even biological brothers have to settle accounts clearly. Of course, it’s no exception between us.”
At this moment, the stone on the other side had already been opened. The staff could not help but exclaim. The surrounding people were also looking forward to it, eager to know which stone had the better quality.
The stone opening at the event location of the stone gambling was carried out in front of everyone. There was no possibility of switching the stones out at all. The first thing that appeared in front of everyone was the stone that Gu Lian had bought worth 30 million yuan. When the outer layer of the stone was completely removed, what was revealed was a complete interior.
The color was emerald green and suffused with a watery light. If the jade material opened by ‘Mo Yu’ was like a lake after a rain, then this piece of jade was like a young girl’s loving eyes when she looked at her lover, moist and gentle.
Many of the onlookers were waiting to watch a good show. Gu Lian had been in a high position for too long. Although he had created countless legends, there were still people who were jealous. In addition, that car accident had caused him to fall from the heavens and be in a coma for three years, causing many rising stars of the wealthy families to be completely unconvinced by him.
They thought that those legends in the industry were all jokes created by others. Therefore, when Gu Lian bid for that stone, many onlookers began to discuss how to post and mock him if the stone Gu Lian opened was inferior to Mo Yu’s.
However, what everyone did not expect was that Gu Lian’s piece of jade was almost on par with Mo Yu’s piece.
The onlookers were dumbfounded. No one had expected that two top-notch jade materials could be obtained in such a venue.
A few descendants of aristocratic families who were in the jewelry business had already begun to estimate the value of two pieces of jade. After calculating, they could not help but sigh at the Gu family’s ridiculous luck. Just these two stones could make them the number one wealthy family in the entire city and even the provincial capital.
A few anxious people had already begun to urge the attendant to quickly open Gu Cheng’s stone. They could not wait to see if a third jade material like this could be opened.
There were also many wealthy families who had already begun to grind their fists and wipe their palms. They wanted to go up and open a stone to play.
At this moment, the expression of the person in charge of the beginning turned ugly.
He carefully sized up Gu Lian and Gu Cheng’s expressions and said after some deliberation, “Um, why don’t we move the machine to the center of the venue to operate it? Just in case they say that we’re lying.”
Although the attendant spoke very softly, many people in the front row still heard this sentence. As they whispered to each other, this news spread throughout the entire audience.
Gu Lian nodded in agreement. Gu Cheng did not dare to refute and could only agree.
It couldn’t be helped. The one who paid was the boss. This stone was paid by Gu Lian. Although it was under his name, now, those very discerning attendants only listened to Gu Lian’s decision.
Soon, the machine and stone were pushed in front of everyone. However, they were no longer complete stones. Instead, half of them had been cut off flat.
Meeting everyone’s puzzled gazes, the professional stone opener explained, “Everyone, please take a look. This is the stone that Mr. Gu Cheng chose just now. We’ll shine the flashlight on it. It’s not hard to see that the light coming out is fluorescent green. This means that there’s jade here. Then, let’s use a polisher to polish this piece and take a look..”
