2024-10-29 19:42:56"I understand how it works." Irving was blunt. In his eyes, it wasn't wrong to admit certain things. "It's just that I've never done this before."
"Want me to take a look? All the stuffs here are from Colorado" It was the Director who spoke. With a smile on his face, he came up with a designer walking cane.
"Director, can you tell me some rules about stone gambling." Irving smiled shyly. "I'm new here. I'm very new in the company and I'm not very familiar with this aspect. I hope you'll tell me so I can learn from it."
The Director put away the walking cane in his hand and noticed the work badge on Irving's chest. The young man was an employee of Huayun Jewelry. This was a big customer, so he naturally needed an explanation. That act of humbly asking for advice was really hard to hate. He even felt that the young man was really sincere.
"Blimey, why is it that this guy just don't know anything?" Yasmine also shook her head. She was surprised that Irving didn't shy away from his ignorance at all and even said it in front of others. Yasmine believed that she had outstanding abilities, while Irving didn't have a single outstanding skill. Why should he be better than herself? Certainly, he must have gotten the position of assistant manager by sheer luck or something.
Could luck really be on his side every time?
"It all depened on the gems inside the stones. Since the stones were from Colorado, they mostly contain emeralds and jadeite. Stone materials produced from the old rocks had a higher probability of providing gems, especially emerals and Jades, and were also more stable. The new ones were far inferior. As for the jade and emeralds inside them, their qualities also depended on the type of stones." The Director explained in great detail and spelled out some common rules.
This was not a secret, anyone could find out by just asking. Irving squatted on the ground and listened very carefully.
"Mr. Garner, almost all the other branches are here, we must go now." After checking the time on the watch on his wrist, Mr. Wayne said. "Your two assistants can stay here for a while."
"Yeah, that's okay." Garner nodded.
Irving didn't notice the two leaving at all.
The Director had almost finished talking now. So, Irving just picked up a piece of stone weighing about ten kilograms. The outer shell was yellowish white in color. "Let me see if it works or not?"
Irving held the stone and stared at it intensely. A few seconds later, a stream of heat silently melted into his eyes. The stoney shell gradually faded away, and the whole inside of the stone could be seen clearly.There was nothing inside it. It was just a scrap.
At this time, Irving's hands were shaking while holding the stone. Fortunately, others did not notice it. He looked around and it appeared as if only him was in existence in the whole place. He couldn't believe it. It actually worked. He knew it must be that ancestral book that brought him this ability.
"Irving, now that you have learned a lesson or two, why don't you gamble and buy a piece?" Yasmine smiled with an indication that it was just an unintentional statement.
Who would have thought that Irving would actually comply. "I think so too!"
Such confidence stunned Yasmine. She originally thought that since Irving didn't understand anything about emeralds and Jade appraisals, he would be afraid. After all, once anyone fell into the pit of gambling on stones with his eyes closed, that person was destined to lose everything.
"You must think about this clearly! Gambling on stones is even deeper most minor appraisals." Yasmine didn't want to push Irving to a dead end. She quickly spoke again. "Don't act out of emotion, otherwise don't blame me if you lose."
However, Irving was still confident and nodded. "That's natural."
Looking at Irving, who was squatting on the ground and looking at the stone seriously, Yasmine was speechless for a while. Could it be that this guy couldn't stand the stimulation and was angry with himself?
Irving gently touched each stone. He had looked at several pieces, and either there was nothing in them, or even if there was, it was very little.
Finally, Irving got a piece of black stone, which had a slightly frosted feel. For some reason, this stone didn't seem ordinary. When he looked at it closely, he could see that the outer body gradually became blurred, and the inner appearance was also revealed.
Green! It was finally green in the inside. Even if Irving didn't understand what type of green stone it was, he could still tell that this piece of green was very pure. This black stone of twenty or thirty kilograms should be able to produce about ten kilograms of the inner green content.
"Young man, I believe this is your first time gambling on stones, right?" At this time, the Director suddenly spoke.
"Yes." Irving subconsciously responded. Not to mention how excited he was now, he knew this stone would definitely produce something good.

"Then I'm going to explain some things to you now." The Director gently pointed at a certain spot on the stone. "Although this stone does look good, and the color is not bad either, there's a little problem. If you look here, there is a crack, which is the tail mark of a digging tool, going deep into it. Even if this stone does produce an emerald, the inside will probably be damaged by this crack."Irving took a closer look, and sure enough, there was a crack. However, this crack only stayed on the outer shell and did not damage the interior. He raised the stone and smiled "I want this piece. I don't want to waste everybody's time looking for a stone to choose, even Mr. Garner has left.""Since you said so, then okay." The Director gave him a nod and continued: "This piece of material originally cost ten thousand dollar. But now, I'm charging you only five thousand. Pay it and you can take the stone away."Five thousand? Although Irving recently made some money off Gwendolyn, it was o
The Divine Heir Making A Ground For The Company
However, Irving's eyes were fixed on the stone cutter.With a crisp sound, the stone was finally cut open, and a touch of green appeared before everyone's eyes."It actually turned out to be green on the inside.""It's a gemstone.""It's an emerald."Irving let out a long sigh of relief. The hand that he was holding tightly was slowly let go. The hanging stone in his heart was finally lay to rest. It turned out that all of this was real and not just a fantasy in his head."Really perspective.""Mister, I'll give you five hundred dollar for the stone.""Five hundred? Young man, I'll pay you seven hundred to buy the stone!"Seeing that the first shot was successful, people started bidding immediately.This was also the rule. If one didn’t want to continue the crafting after cutting it, one could sell it on the spot. As long as the price offered by the other party satisfied the owner. Otherwise, if one continued cutting it and it became crumbled or cracked, then it would become worthless
The Divine Heir We All Benefit As One
The exhibition rounded up, and Mr. Wayne took the three of them to a restaurant not far away. There was already a person sitting in the box."This is the manager of our Griffiths Antiques and Auctions headquarters, Mr. Jones Brooke." Mr. Wayne spoke first and introduced everyone."This is the manager from the Hudson Jewelry, our company branch in New York, Mr. Garner, and these are his assistants, Mr. Irving, and Ms. Yasmine.""Mr. Jones." Garner walked up and shook hands with Jones Brooke.Jones stood up immediately, returned the greeting solemnly, and shook hands with Irving by the way. As for Yasmine, a simple nod was considered acquaintance. This was not because Jones Brooke deliberately despised Yasmine because of his identity. But he believed that if a woman didn't take the initiative to reach out, a man shouldn't reach out first. This was the minimum etiquette of his."Hahaha, Mr. Garner. I didn't expect that you've already made a ground for our company when you first came here
The Divine Heir It Was Just Luck
"At 10:30 the next morning, Irving and Garner walked out of the room.However, Yasmin seemed to have been ready earlier and waiting for them."Look! It's him who gambled on a rock and found a treasure yesterday!"When Irving returned to the venue, many people recognized his presence at a glance."Haha, it seems that everyone is very impressed by what happened yesterday!" Garner smiled. "You are quite famous." "Ah, this is all luck, Mr. Garner. Just luck. I still have a lot to learn." Irving smiled blankly. He knew he had to learn more to survive in this business. If he didn’t learn everything, how would he guarantee that his chance of winning in the future would be better than average? Flaws would be revealed without adequate learning, then trouble would surely follow!"Mr. Garner, Mr. Brown is in a meeting. You can take a walk around to while away your time." Assistant manager Wayne saw the three of them and immediately came over to greet them.Garner nodded, indicating his acquiesc
The Divine Heir Borrowed Luck?
Although thirty thousand dollar was a lot for ordinary people, it was just drizzle for Irving. Irving earned more than hundred thousand dollar yesterday alone, so it would definitely be no problem to spend it. It was just that as a newcomer, it would be too eye-catching if he showcased himself like this again. "Can you lend me another thirty thousand dollar and your luck? Then I will return it, together with the previous money I owed you after I get lucky today." Irving turned around and asked Yasmin. "You, Irving, you don't really know how to borrow luck, do you?" Garner touched his chin and looked at Irving curiously. "Don't you have money yourself? Why do you ask others to lend you money?" Yasmin was furious when Irving mentioned luck twice. "Just this time?" "I won't lend it to you anymore. I really don't want to hear about how lucky you were again." Yasmin never believed in luck, and now she just didn't want to lend money to Irving. Irving got angry just looking at her. "H
The Divine Heir A Fair Deal?
"I wonder what I should call you, gentleman?" It was Garner who spoke. "My name is Zahn." "Okay, Mr. Zahn. You may not know that he just borrowed my money and borrowed my luck." Garner said. "If he sells you the stone now, isn't that him selling away my luck too?" As soon as he said this, it was obvious that he didn't want to sell. Although he didn't believe in luck, Irving has already discovered two pieces of gemstones in a row. If there were to be another piece of this, it would be really terrifying. "In this exhibition, your Hudson Jewelry has taken all the limelight. It's really pitiful for the rest of us to watch from the sidelines." While wiping the cold sweat from his head, Mr. Zahn frowned. But who cared about this kind of rhetoric nowadays when shopping malls were like battlefields? "You can actually do that if you want." At this time Irving spoke. "I spent five thousand dollar on this stone. How much can you pay?" After all, he was a newcomer, and Irving had no intenti
The Divine Heir Yasmin's Heirloom Necklace [I]
After continuing to chat for a time, Irving finally managed to calm down the two elders.Naturally, the two of them would want to show off about Irving's money everywhere, and even wanted to get the money back, but Irving naturally disagreed. He still had a lot of money on hand, so he should keep the money for his parents to use for themselves.Garner went out to do some errands and came back a little while later. "Irving, you remembered the second piece from yesterday?" Garner asked with a smile. "The piece of material you just sold to Mr. Zahn? It didn't come out with any gem later. It cost him four thousand, so he lost quite some money."Hearing Garner's laughter, Irving glanced at Garner awkwardly. For him, it was meant to be a cover-up. He knew right from the beginning that there was nothing inside. Who would have thought that Mr. Zahn would suddenly jump out and want to buy it? So Irving had no choice but to take matters into his own hands, and sold the man the piece of rock.B

"We rob your friend of her things? Do you mean we are thieves?""What kind of nonsense talk is that? Mister, be careful, or we'll sue you for slander!""When you say something incriminating, you have to show evidence. You said we stole from your friend, where is the evidence?"These hoodlums were very arrogant. They weren't afraid at all and didn't take Irving seriously at all."Okay, all three of you, stop making noise." The traffic policeman knocked on the book in his hand and said angrily. "When my colleagues arrive, you can explain to them again. There is no need to waste your breath here."Irving looked helpless, he had no choice but to wait now. Although there were other things to be done, he had to resolve the current situation first. With the way they were talking and acting, it seemed they've hid the stolen necklace. Irving, who had followed them all the way just now, didn't notice them hiding away the stolen goods. If they hadn't taken time to hide the necklace, Irving would

"There is no risk of commercial fraud, and there are no problems with the government. It is great value for money... So can we grab it?" Irving was still a little confused. From what Quentin said, it seemed that these pieces of land belonged to Warren. Why was this so?"Haha, Irving, I understand what you mean! The reason why these plots of land have not been sold yet is because their requirements are high - they must take over several plots of land at the same time, and the full amount must be paid within one week after signing the contract!""You know," Quentin added proudly, "most of the real estate companies in New York City are small in scale and rely on bank loans to survive. Only a few can come up with so much cash at once! But we can do it! There are more than 200 million dollar in the account of the headquarters now. Excluding the 200 million dollar, the rest is enough to support it until the end of the month, and the subsequent loans of nearly 100 million dollar should be av

Early in the morning, Irving finished washing up and was about to go downstairs for breakfast when Warren’s president Quentin came to his door.Irving couldn't help but look at the clock on the wall. It was indeed just after seven o'clock. If he hadn't confirmed it, he would have thought he had overslept. He grinned helplessly and said to his mentor, "Mr. Quentin, are you here to check on me, or are you here to have breakfast?"Quentin didn't take Irving's teasing seriously. He smiled and said, "I haven't had breakfast yet, so I'll just have breakfast for free!"Quentin was a diligent person who has spared no effort for the development of the company. He must have something to discuss if he came here so early in the morning. Irving stopped joking with him: "Then let's go, let's eat and talk!"In the restaurant, the two sat together, Irving ate while listening to Quentin's report."Irving, I have two things to tell you."

"This calligraphy and painting is worth 30 million, plus!""This jade bracelet is okay, let's count it at eight million.""Well, although the quality of this item is a little poor, it can still be sold for a few thousand dollar, so let's add it together." The short and fat man raised his hands, his expression dull, not daring to make any movement. He let Gunther search his entire body, even small items worth dozens of dollars were not spared.If he hadn't been in the treasure fighting arena, the short and fat man would have thought he had encountered a robber.After a long while, Gunther turned around and asked his men, "Have you finished the calculation? What is the total value?"The subordinate was busy sweating profusely, and finally pressed the last number and immediately replied: "The total is 345,983,642.50 dollar!"When this number was announced, the whole audience was shocked."It adds up to more than 300 million!""This is not a small number.

"Gunther did not move at all, his masked face showed no expression, as if he were a stone statue."hehe……"Just when everyone was confused, Gunther looked up and laughed."It turns out that the clown is me!"Gunther's words made everyone even more confused. After looking at each other for a while, they didn't know whether they should ask questions, but they were afraid of angering Gunther.However, humans have the same strong curiosity as cats.Finally, the short and fat man asked, "Judges, did I win?"Gunther smiled bitterly and shook his head. "What a joke! My emerald token is worth three million. How can I not win against a broken scroll?"This unexpected response made the short and fat man open his eyes in astonishment. He could hardly believe his ears. It was like a bolt from the blue.But he won't give up easily."I want to pick up the treasure!" The short and fat man took out another antique.Glaze garlic vase.Estimated value: 12.7 million!"Judges, can this one win?" Gunther

This Is Unbelievable
"Ha ha……" Gunther laughed.The short fat man laughed.The woman in black smiled.Everyone laughed.Irving, at this moment, under the gaze of everyone, was like a complete idiot.A broken scroll picked up from the garbage dump, hoping to defeat a short and fat man who possessed many rare treasures. If possible, they really wanted to pry open Irving's head on the spot to see what was inside.Fannie couldn't help but sigh, with the same expression of looking at someone as if he was a fool.A thing worth only tens of thousands of dollars would hardly make even a splash on the treasure-fighting stage.Gunther laughed and said, "You're stupid, but you're still stubborn."The short and fat man responded, "Judges, since he wants to embarrass himself in public, why don't we help him? Otherwise, after we leave this island, he will have the opportunity to slander me, saying that I dare not accept the challenge and that Hammersmith bullied him."Gunther thought about it and felt that this made se

What The Hell?
"Who.?" The short and fat man stared at the crowd with his eyes wide open. "Who the hell are you? Come out now if you dare. Stop hiding."The roar echoed in the venue. It's like a mad pit bull baring its teeth, frightening people from the bottom of their souls.The crowd immediately looked around, trying to find the man out to calm the anger of this mad dog. After a while, like a river broken in the middle, the crowd automatically and consciously retreated to both sides.Gradually, a large open space was left in the treasure fighting arena. There were only two people standing there.A man and a woman.One of them was Fannie.The other person was——Irving.He was like a standing monument, with his back straight and his eyes sharp.The short and fat man snapped, "It's you again."Irving still looks like an unchanging stone statue. Cold, lonely and arrogant.The short and fat man roared: "Who are you calling worse than trash?"Irving said coldly: "It seems that you are quite self-aware."

The Isle [IV]
"Hey, let's make some noise."The people in the treasure-competing arena are typically spectators who are there to watch a show and are not afraid of trouble, otherwise they would not come here specifically to watch people compete with treasures.It’s not like the man in black robe hasn’t been questioned before.Those who lose in the treasure competition often become anxious and unwilling to give away the treasures they have treasured for many years to others, so they will blame the other person's poor judgment ability and the appraisal result must be wrong.The result was that the doubters were severely punished.At the very least, they will be beaten half to death, and at the worst, they will disappear from the face of the earth.The man in black robe looked down at the people below, neither angry nor mocking.He said calmly, "Do you know what will happen if you question Hammersmith's number one treasure appraiser?"A short sentence, but it sounded very bland.But for some reason, t

"Why don't you two go to the treasure bidding arena first." The woman in black said with a faint smile.Fannie was eager to find out the inside story, so she immediately instigated Irving."It doesn't matter if you see it, let's go."Irving raised his eyelids and said calmly: "Well, I haven't seen anyone fighting for treasures for a long time."The woman in black bowed and walked to the front to lead the way.After a while, the three of them came to another stone chamber, but it was different from the "exotic flowers and plants" one. This one was full of people. There was a high platform in the middle, and an isolated circle outside was surrounded by ropes.At this time, three people were standing in a triangle on the platform.The person standing in the middle was wearing a black robe, his face buried deep in his hood, his hands crossed and tucked into his wide sleeves.The other two stood on the left and right of the man in black robe, facing each other, each holding a square wooden
