The Understated Dragon Lord novel Chapter 165

Chapter 165 One in Ten Thousand Chance 

To everyone’s amazement, Isabella declared her belief in Daniel. In an attempt to appear less desperate, Jessica responded with a confident smile, “Daniel is my assistant. I know very well how capable he is! Naturally, I know that he will definitely 

win.” 

“Then why did you come to negotiate with me if you knew Daniel would win, Jessica? 

“I just wanted to have a backup plan! Although there’s a 99.99% chance Daniel will win, there’s still that one in ten thousand chance he might not. Again, just in case!” 

The sight of two incredibly beautiful women quarreling over a country–boy in front of shocked onlookers was too much for Andrew to bear any longer. He was Andrew, the President of ArmCorp, and even he had never been simultaneously fussed over by such stunning beauties. 

Why should Daniel get all this attention? 

Unable to watch the women’s jealous spat over a mere country bumpkin, Andrew 

interjected. 

“Ladies, you still think this country boy has a chance? Alright, let me show you what reality is!” 

Waving his hand, Andrew ordered the staff, “Open up their third stones!” 

Naturally, Isaac’s last stone was cut first. 

Buzzing from the saw did its work, splitting the stone in two, revealing green. Everyone could see the green hue–Isaac’s last stone was an Imperial Green Jade! Just by the jade’s color, it was worth at least twenty million. 

Seeing this, Andrew burst into laughter. He pointed at the stone and turned to Jessica and Isabella, asking, “What do you ladies think? The jade from this stone is Imperial Green and has been estimated to be worth at least twenty million by the 

appraisers. 

Now, the total value of Isaac’s three stones has reached thirty–five million. But what 

about this country boy? He bought three worthless stones! I’m thinking, if I found a random stray dog on the street to pick stones, that dog’s choice would be better 

than this country boy’s, right? Ha–ha–ha–ha…” 

Andrew reveled in mocking Daniel, but Daniel kept silent until Andrew finished laughing. Only then did he speak up. 

“Andrew, you’re just too impatient. The king of Jade Gambling’s third stone has yielded impressive Imperial Green jade, but who says my third stone is worthless yet? 

Additionally, the price differences between jades can be vast. If my stone contains the best quality Imperial Green Jade, it could be worth a billion.” 

Upon hearing this, Andrew threw his head back in hearty laughter. 

After his laughter subsided, he looked at Daniel, mocking him like he was an idiot. 

“What? That stone of yours, which is only priced at 380,000, contains Imperial Green Jade? A stone with the best quality worth a billion? Do you realize this Jade Gambling event is hosted by Florida’s wealthiest, Chris Evans? 

Before being put up for selection, every stone here has gone through several rounds of appraisal. Do you think The Evans would price a stone containing the finest grade Imperial Green Jade worth a billion, for just 380,000? 

Country boy, do you think the people at The Evans are as foolish as you?” 

“Whether the people at The Evans are foolish or not, how would I know? But in my stone, there is definitely an Imperial Green Jade worth a billion!”
