The Understated Dragon Lord

"That's the one!" Daniel exclaimed, pointing at the original stone labeled with a price tag of $3,990,000.

Grant couldn't help but burst into laughter when he saw what Daniel had chosen.

"Haha, you can't be serious!"

After he finished laughing, Grant leaned in, curious. "Are you sure you want that original stone, country boy?"

"Absolutely! Once I've made my choice, I stand by it! No second thoughts!" Daniel declared confidently.

With that, he quickly transferred the money, making the original stone his.

Seeing Daniel complete the transaction made Grant feel ecstatic. "Haha!"

Once the laughter subsided, Grant looked at Daniel with a smug expression and asked, "Do you even know what kind of jade can be mined from that stone? Do you know how much it's worth?"

"Of course I know! Once that stone is

cut open, it can yield a shimmering piece of Golden Jade. That Golden Jade is worth at least $80 million Some say it could even reach $100 million!" Daniel replied, full of confidence.

His words weren't just a pipe dream. He had an extraordinary eye for these things, one that saw beyond mere appearances. Even though the stone hadn't been cut yet, he could already envision the Golden Jade inside. His estimates of $80 million to $100 million were actually quite conservative; the true value would only be known once the jade was extracted.

"Haha!" Daniel's claim had Grant rolling with laughter again.

After he caught his breath, Grant asked, "Wait, are you saying the stone has Golden Jade worth $80 million? Wow, you must be great at storytelling! Haha!"

"It can definitely be worth $80 million!" Daniel retorted, firm and self-assured.

Grant shifted gears quickly and turned to Aaron, "Aaron, you've personally examined each original stone tonight. Can this one really yield Golden Jade? Is it really worth $80 million?"

"$80 million worth of Golden Jade? No way!" Aaron shook his head. "I've checked this original stone thoroughly. If I've priced it at $3,990,000, rest assured, it's not hiding any jade that valuable!"

Stepping closer to the stone, Aaron

pointed at its texture. "From what I see here, there's indeed some jade but it's just yellow jade. As beautiful as yellow jade can be, it's nowhere near the value of Golden Jade. There's a huge difference in worth!"

To confirm his judgment, Aaron pulled out a magnifying glass and a special flashlight designed for examining original stones, so he could gaze deep into the stone while checking its details meticulously.
