Dongtiao Yaoji was very happy.
She was originally going to Myanmar for business today.
As it happened, she arrived just in time for the jade exhibition in Ruili, so she decided to drop by for some fun.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she entered the exhibition hall, she saw a Dragon Country man who had cut a top-quality high-ice jade with floating flowers from a rough stone.
Hundreds of thousands of Dragon coins had instantly multiplied over a hundredfold.
This novelty and excitement instantly sparked her interest in stone gambling.
But she knew nothing about stone gambling, what should she do?
There was no other way, so she focused her attention on the Dragon Country man who had just cut a rough stone worth over a hundred million.
Thus, Dongtiao Yaoji followed Qin Xuan, wanting to uncover his secret to stone gambling.
But she was shocked by what she saw.
Qin Xuan weaved through the exhibition hall as if he were shopping at a supermarket.
In just half an hour, by buying and cutting stones, he had earned over eight million Dragon coins from several stalls.
Although this speed of making money couldn't compare to the rapid growth of her family's businesses, it was exciting!
Especially since every time Qin Xuan made a move, the profits multiplied several times, even tens of times.
Who could resist this?
So, a brilliant plan gradually formed in Dongtiao Yaoji's mind: she would find a way to snatch any rough stone that Qin Xuan fancied!
This way, she could not only experience the thrill of stone gambling but also ensure a profit, achieving two goals with one action!
To test the feasibility of her idea, she immediately went to Qin Xuan and began her experiment.
The results of her experiment confirmed that her plan was viable.
The first rough stone she snatched from Qin Xuan cost 500,000 and sold for 3.3 million, a net profit of 2.8 million.
The second rough stone she snatched from Qin Xuan cost 4 million and sold for 12 million, a net profit of 8 million!
In this world, what could be more fun than this?
Dongtiao Yaoji was filled with joy. She turned her head and saw that Qin Xuan seemed to have taken a liking to another rough stone.
It was a basketball-sized high-ice jade with floating flowers, priced at 4 million by the vendor.
Was there any need to hesitate?
With a wide grin, she immediately made a higher bid, "I'll offer 5 million Dragon coins for this rough stone!"
Dongtiao Yaoji's voice was piercing and carried through the air.
A large group of people, including Qin Xuan and the seller, couldn't help but turn their gaze towards her.
Others were fine, but Qin Xuan's face looked extremely displeased.
"You again?"
"I didn't bother with you when you snatched my stones earlier, and now you're causing trouble again?"
"Do you really think I, Qin Xuan, have no temper?"
Dongtiao Yaoji smiled slightly, revealing a mouth full of uneven, large yellow teeth.
"In Dragon Country, there's a saying: the highest bidder wins."
"If you offer a lower price than I do, and the boss sells the rough stone to me, is there anything wrong with that?"
Dongtiao Yaoji's Mandarin was very fluent, but her self-righteous demeanor was extremely irritating.
Qin Xuan snorted coldly and retorted loudly, "But Dragon Country also has a saying: first come, first served."
"Since I saw this rough stone first, I have priority to purchase it."
"Sorry, my Dragon Country language isn't very good, I don't quite understand."
Dongtiao Yaoji said she was sorry, but her expression showed no hint of apology.
Disregarding Qin Xuan's anger, Dongtiao Yaoji asked the stall owner again, "Boss, will you sell this rough stone to me for 5 million?"
Hearing that someone was willing to pay a high price for his rough stone, the stall owner naturally had no objections.
He took out his QR code and extended it forward, but Qin Xuan reached out from the side and stopped him.
"Excuse me, I don't want to indulge you anymore this time."
"Whoever offers the higher price gets it, right?"
"Fine, then I'll offer 5.5 million."
"I offer 6 million," Dongtiao Yaoji said calmly.
"7 million!"
"8 million."
"9 million!"
"10 million."
Seeing the other party continuously raising the price, Qin Xuan was not to be outdone.
After a few rounds, a jade rough stone that was originally priced at 4 million had been driven up to a staggering 15 million by the two of them.
"Fine, you win this round."
"Yu En, let's go!"
With a disgruntled grunt, Qin Xuan left angrily with Yu En.
After visiting several more rough stone stalls, his gaze finally settled on a large piece of high-ice jade with full green and a window.
"Look at this, brother, full green and high ice, with old texture and fine grain. It's been a long time since Myanmar has had material like this!"
The stall owner had also seen the scene of Qin Xuan and Dongtiao Yaoji bidding earlier, so he was very excited when he saw Qin Xuan approaching.
Perhaps these two would stage another passionate bidding war here?
The jade mine owner's enthusiasm did not capture Qin Xuan's attention.
He simply picked up a strong flashlight and shone it on the high-ice, full-green rough stone again and again.
Only after two minutes did a satisfied smile gradually appear on his face.
"Boss..."
Qin Xuan put down the flashlight and was about to ask the price, but he found Dongtiao Yaoji's figure appearing behind him as expected.
"Are you done yet?"
"Can you stop following me?"
Facing Qin Xuan's roar, Dongtiao Yaoji smiled calmly, "This is a jade exhibition."
"Where you can go, I can also go."
"You're not a law enforcement officer of Dragon Country, so why are you controlling me?"
Qin Xuan was furious.
But as Dongtiao Yaoji said, he had no right to ask her not to follow him.
Taking a deep breath, Qin Xuan tried his best to remain calm.
After carefully re-examining the rough stone, he then looked at the stall owner, "Boss, what's the price of this rough stone?"
The stall owner's eyes darted around, looking at Qin Xuan, then at the smug Dongtiao Yaoji.
After thinking about it, he gritted his teeth and quoted a price that even he didn't believe: 80 million!
"Holy crap, this rough stone is being sold for 80 million?"
"Has this stall owner lost his mind?"
"Exactly. Although it's a semi-gambling stone, the green on the surface can at most make a bracelet, and it's not even certain if it will be visible."
"If this can sell for 80 million, the one I have at home can sell for a hundred million!"
"What do you guys know?"
"The fact that the vendor dares to ask this price clearly shows they are counting on this Japanese woman to bid maliciously and want to rip off a sucker!"
The outrageous quote instantly ignited discussions among the onlookers.
But no matter how unreasonable the crowd thought it was, Qin Xuan did not waver at all. Instead, he showed an eager expression.
"I'll take it for 80 million, cut the stone for me immediately!"
Saying that, he immediately took out his phone to transfer the payment.
But as soon as he opened the QR code scanning function, a fat hand forcefully pressed it down.
"Don't rush, I haven't made my bid yet."
Dongtiao Yaoji grinned again, thought for a moment, and quoted her price.
"I'll offer 100 million Dragon coins for this rough stone."
100 million Dragon coins was the price Qin Xuan's first rough stone had sold for.
She wanted to see how much Qin Xuan was willing to invest for this so-called high-ice full green.
"120 million."
Unlike their previous bidding war.
Qin Xuan's demeanor was exceptionally calm this time.
His eyes were fixed on Dongtiao Yaoji, trying to exert pressure on her.
But Dongtiao Yaoji was not swayed.
"140 million," Dongtiao Yaoji said, meeting Qin Xuan's gaze.
"160 million," Qin Xuan continued to raise the price.
"180 million."
"Do you really think I can't outbid you?"
Qin Xuan roared, "200 million Dragon coins!"
"220 million," Dongtiao Yaoji's tone remained flat.
"240 million!"
After a few more rounds, the jade rough stone that was initially quoted at 80 million had reached a terrifying 460 million.
Keep in mind that the top bid at the last Myanmar public auction was only slightly over 400 million.
Qin Xuan was panting, sweat beading on his forehead, and Dongtiao Yaoji's eyes flickered with hesitation.
Finally, a person in a black suit, who looked like a bodyguard, emerged from the crowd.
He leaned close to Dongtiao Yaoji and whispered a few words in her ear.
Dongtiao Yaoji's expression instantly relaxed, her previous concerns completely vanished, and even her speech became more confident.
"I offer 500 million Dragon coins."
"If you have the guts, keep bidding."
"Hiss!"
"A jump of 40 million Dragon coins! This Japanese woman is truly ruthless!"
Dongtiao Yaoji's bid instantly ignited everyone present.
Some were shocked by Dongtiao Yaoji's lavish spending, while others felt pity for Qin Xuan.
"This is 500 million Dragon coins! A little more, and you could buy a top-quality Imperial Green bracelet!"
"Isn't that right?"
"Unless this rough stone has half of it with the same quality as the window, then 500 million is a huge loss."
"But the most regrettable thing is this young man."
"A good stone gambling master has been targeted by such a scourge."
"Who said that!"
"To have his desired rough stones repeatedly snatched away by a strange Japanese woman, if it were me, I would have lost all motivation long ago!"
"Alas!"
As if to confirm the onlookers' words, when Qin Xuan heard the words "500 million Dragon coins," his eyes instantly glazed over.
With his lips tightly sealed, he remained silent, his steps stiff as he slowly walked away from the stall, looking completely dejected.
Seeing this, Yu En glared fiercely at Dongtiao Yaoji, then quickly jogged a few steps and chased after Qin Xuan's retreating figure.
A minute later, the two were walking side by side.
Qin Xuan smiled and said to Yu En in a voice only they could hear, "Little Yu En, why aren't you running yet?!"
