"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 only ten thousand dollar. The money was nothing by the business standards, and he had already spent some of it, so he was still a poor boy.

If he brought out the remaining notes, he would definitely present a wretched expression of himself. 

""You don't have any money, do you? You don't have any money, so what are you betting on?" Looking at Irving's appearance, Yasmine naturally thought that he had no money.

"Isn't this what you asked me to buy?" Holding the stone in his hand, Irving replied. "Besides, I don't have that enough money. You can lend it to me and I'll give you back when I collect my salary."

"What? Do you know how many months it will take to pay me back?" Yasmine thought Irving would retreat in spite of the difficulties, but she didn't expect that this guy would totally lose it. "Okay! I'll lend it to you!"

"Oh, thank you." Irving replied, pretending to be extremely grateful. The card saved him from the blushes of spending his own money in the open. "I'll definitely pay you back after my first salary, or even before then."

"I can't blame you for losing this time. After all, you are a newbie." Yasmine snorted coldly and expressed what was in his heart. After that, she took out a card and stuffed it into Irving's hand. "I don't need you to pay back the money, as long as you admit that you are not capable."

She just couldn't bear to see Irving getting ahead of her due to luck. When she was in college, Yasmine had outstanding looks and a wealthy family. Despite all these, she still relied on her own efforts and took things one step at a time. She never believed in luck. But now Irving relied on luck to climb above her, how could she be willing to accept this?

After taking the bank card, Irving did not reply. He gave the card to the director who swiped it, and received his money. From then on, the stone belonged to Irving. "This is my first time betting on stones. I don't know how to cut it. Can you please help me out on this, director...?"

"Of course, many customers don't know how to cut it, so I do it for them." With that said, the director got hold of the stone cutting machine.

This was a must at every summit stall. After all, a rough stone was still a stone, except for some professional stone cutters, it was difficult to cut.

If it was forced open, the material inside could be damaged. And the value would also be greatly reduced.

The stone cutter started, and Irving remembered the sound of the engine. The diamond blade gently scratched the original stone, making a sizzling sound.

"Look over there, someone is cutting rocks!"

"Let's see what is found?"

Many people heard the noise and gathered around.

There were so many people, Yasmine unconsciously stood on the left side of Irving, trying to stay away from those people.

This was water cutting. In comparison, wire cutting had greater losses. So generally when trying to discover what a stone contain, it was water cutting. Wire cutting would only be used after the cutter could clearly see what the material inside was.

Along the cutting direction, the material of the stone will be sprayed outward with water in the form of mist. If there was jade, then the color of the sprayed mist would definitely be different. But this was also uncertain, so it was hard to tell until the end.

Yasmine glanced at Irving subconsciously. She didn't believe that luck was really a thing. How could Irving produce something for the first time asking?

Because she had been helping him for the launching of the company, she was very tired and soon became very sleepy.She stopped talking and fell asleep not long after the plane took off. She was sleeping soundly, probably feeling uncomfortable, and slowly leaned her head on his shoulder.Amid the roar of the plane, smelling the faint fragrance of her hair, and seeing her long eyelashes occasionally fluttering in her sleep, irving felt very at peace and leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes.After the new company was opened, Irving spent an afternoon with Jillian in the Vegas office to hold a development and report meeting for the company's senior management. Silverstone Real Estate had completely got on the right track. With suffic

    "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." Quentin took a bite of the big meat bun provided by the restauran

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. It is rare for major auction hous

    "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

    "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
