Song Lele watched this scene from the side and listened to the discussions around her.

For some reason, the scene unfolding before her struck her as strangely familiar.

A strong sense of déjà vu washed over her, making her feel unusually strange.

Could today really be Tang Feng’s lucky day?

…

And beside Song Lele, the young man who had looked down at Tang Feng earlier was absolutely dumbfounded.

“Damn it, I’m a veteran gambler in my own right, but never have I experienced such great luck!”

The young man first cursed and then asked Song Lele.

“Bro, is this really your friend’s first time participating in stone gambling?”

“Did he really choose those three stones at random? Could he actually be a master who’s pretending to be a newbie?”

Song Lele glanced at him, but she did not reply.

She was confused as well, and thus, she did not have the mood to entertain the young man’s thoughts.

Tang Feng’s luck was simply unrivalled!

After a long period of pondering to herself, Song Lele took a deep breath and sighed, with a tone full of envy, she said to Tang Feng, “Young Master Feng, your luck today is really unbelievable. These two pieces of jade have already added up to several hundred thousand yuan.”

As a foul omen who has suffered rotten luck year after year, Song Lele despised those who had been blessed with good fortune. However, as the blessed person was her friend, her hate had mellowed out into envy instead.

“I’ve only made a small profit. It’s nothing worth bragging about.”

Tang Feng said in a bourgeois tone.

“Though, who’s to say that the last one isn’t a winner as well?”

The corner of Song Lele’s eyes twitched.

“No way, bro. You’ve already won two out of three stones you selected. Do you think you’re the illegitimate child of the Goddess of Fortune or something?”

Tang Feng responded proudly, “No need to degrade me like that. For all you know, the Goddess of Fortune might be my wife!”

Song Lele was speechless. “Keep dreaming, kid. I refuse to believe you’ll strike another win with that last stone!”

A certain someone with a cheat grinned widely and answered, “Let’s wait and see then!”

…

While the two of them were talking, the old master who was already cutting the third raw stone.

As the high pitch screech of the grinding wheel filled the air, the people who were sighing over Tang Feng’s good luck moments ago started holding their breaths once more.

The ear-piercing sound of the grinding wheel colliding with the raw jade stone was a melodious symphony to these gambling addicts.

Soon after, after cleaning the debris away with water, a resplendent green glow almost blinded the eyes of everyone present under the illumination of the lights in the shop.

This was a supreme quality of jade, it was a shade of jade known as Imperial Jade, which only appeared once in a blue moon!

“Wh-What the flipping f*ck! That’s a piece of Imperial Jade! It’s a f*cking piece of Imperial Jade!”

“Such a large chunk of Imperial Jade should be worth at least a few million yuan. This is f*cking insane!”

“None of his three stones were a dud! What in God’s name is this! Is this really a level of luck a mere human deserves?”

“This Imperial Jade doesn’t look big in my opinion, but there should be no issues producing two bracelets and some minor ornaments out of it!”

“F*ck me, I had my eyes on this stone before this! I was lacking funds, and now it’s too late!”

…

As the stunning Imperial Jade was displayed in front of everyone’s eyes, many of the onlookers’ breathing became heavier.

Among the stone gamblers present, how many of them would have a chance to obtain Imperial Jade within their lifetime?

Song Lele, who was confident that Tang Feng would get a dud, stared wide-eyed at Tang Feng as if he was a ghost.

He really… Won again?!

All three of his selections were a win?!

Could this man really be blessed by the Heavens? Is he the second coming of a great figure or something?

Even the God of Wealth would not bless someone this much!

The two stonemason apprentices dared not interact with the piece any further. They set down their tools and placed their hopes on their master.

They could not afford to mess up on such a priceless piece of jade.

“Young man, this stone of yours has already soared in value. As it is now, it’s already worth at least five to six million in value. Are you sure you want me to fully extract it out?”

The old master who was cutting the stone asked Tang Feng courteously.

“Hahaha, it’s fine. Master, don’t worry and cut it boldly. I’m here to play today. The worst that could happen would be me making less money from it.”

Tang Feng waved his hand magnanimously.

In fact, he had already used the Scanning System to determine that the stone was worth more than nine million yuan when fully extracted.

As such, selling it at a mere five to six million was a huge loss.

“Hehe, you have a pretty strong mindset. In that case, I’ll start getting to work then.”

The old master nodded with a smile. He really admired Tang Feng’s open-minded attitude.

The black-hearted merchants who were originally prepared to bid for this stone felt a little helpless when they heard the conversation between the two.

Clearly, this was a gambler who was not lacking in money.

It seemed to them that there were no business opportunities to be made here.

Once the jade was fully extracted, a crystal clear Imperial Jade was perfectly presented in front of everyone’s eyes.

Its attractive green color had undoubtedly belonged to the top class jade within the market.

“A total of 307 grams. Young man, would you be interested in selling your jade stone? Our shop purchases stones like these at 30,000 a gram. Currently, there are very few competitors who could offer you prices as good as ours.”

The old master weighing the raw jade stone said to Tang Feng with a smile.

Other than betting on stones and cutting stones, the stone shop also had a business of repurchasing high-quality raw jade stones.

It was truly a one-stop shop service.

A stone weighing more than half a catty could be sold at a sky-high price of more than nine million at the prices the stonemason offered. Naturally, it caused a commotion among the onlookers.

Tang Feng’s heart was also leaping in joy.

A big pie worth more than nine million had dropped from the sky and landed on his forehead.

Anyone would be dizzy if they were to encounter such a situation!
