After snapping out of his daze, Li Chen shouted, "Impossible! This is absolutely impossible!"
"Our company has been dealing with jade for so long and has never encountered a twin jade. How could that kid possibly find such a treasure!"
Twin jade refers to a jade that contains an even smaller piece of jade within it.
This is a treasure that cannot be formed by human hands or machines; only nature's divine craftsmanship can forge such a gem.
There are rumors that twin jade is so rare that less than three pieces are produced worldwide in a year.
Although Wu Tian's piece was only the size of an egg, it would fetch at least five to six hundred million yuan at an auction.
Facing Li Chen's skepticism, Wu Tian simply smiled and said, "If you don't believe me, then it's simple, just go and see for yourself."
"But I must advise you, you'd better be careful!"
"If anything happens to that jade, your Li's Jewelry will have to hand over half of its shares to me."
Li Chen's heart trembled, but he still didn't believe it. He quickly walked to the stone cutting machine and picked up the imperial green jade.
He held the imperial green jade up to the light, and the light immediately passed through it, illuminating its interior.
And at that very moment, Li Chen felt his heartbeat almost stop.
He saw it! He saw it!
Within this imperial green jade, there was indeed another imperial green jade!
"How can such a thing happen..."
He murmured, then shouted, "How can such a thing happen!"
"You scoundrel, you actually managed to find twin jade!"
"No... I can't accept this, I absolutely cannot accept this!"
Li Chen's denials only served to confirm that what Wu Tian had found was indeed twin jade!
At this moment, everyone present fell silent.
They looked at each other, their eyes filled with shock.
In the silence, only Wu Tian's faint laughter could be heard: "You don't accept it? I'm sorry, it doesn't matter if you don't accept it."
"Facts speak louder than words, didn't you just say that yourself?"
Wu Tian walked over, took the twin jade back into his hands, and said, "You sell jewelry. Tell me now, which is more valuable, your imperial green jade or my twin jade?"
No one dared to speak.
There was no suspense in the answer.
The imperial green jade that Li Chen had opened was indeed precious, but at most it would sell for ten to twenty million yuan. Compared to the twin jade, it was nothing!
Li Chen's body began to tremble.
He had originally intended to humiliate Wu Tian, but now it seemed he was the one who had lost...
He felt a tingling sensation in his scalp and was too ashamed to stay any longer. He turned to flee.
But at this moment, Wu Tian grabbed his shoulder and said, "Why are you in such a hurry to leave? You haven't fulfilled our bet yet."
"We agreed that if you lost, you would perform a striptease dance in public. Now, please fulfill your promise."
Li Chen's eyes twitched, and the crowd below showed strange expressions.
No matter what, Li Chen was the young master of Li's Jewelry and the future successor.
If he danced this dance here today, how could Li's Jewelry ever hold its head up again?
Li Chen naturally refused to do such a thing.
He glared fiercely at Wu Tian and said, "This time it's just your luck, not your actual skill!"
"You won today, but so what? In my heart, you're still just a lousy scoundrel!"
"I was just playing with you. I advise you not to push your luck!"
"If you really push me too far, I'll make you regret it!"
The crowd below shook their heads with disdain upon hearing Li Chen's words.
Li Chen had initiated this dispute, but he was now going back on his word, which was truly despicable.
But Li Chen couldn't care about that now. He tried to use his status to suppress Wu Tian, hoping to make Wu Tian back down and, at the same time, save a little face for himself.
But how could Wu Tian be intimidated by such threats?
Wu Tian stared into Li Chen's eyes and said, "I'll tell you one more time, do what you're supposed to do."
"I really want you to dance now, but if you don't listen, then in the future, even walking might be a luxury for you!"
Wu Tian's words carried a strong threat. Li Chen was furious and was about to retort.
But at this moment, he saw an ingrained coldness in Wu Tian's eyes.
The coldness was so piercing that it felt as if it could freeze his heart.
He shivered fiercely, and then deep fear welled up in his eyes.
He had a premonition that if he insisted on ignoring Wu Tian, then whatever Wu Tian did to him next might be something truly terrifying...
Driven by fear, Li Chen found himself unable to control his body.
In full view of everyone, he unbuckled his belt...
What followed was Li Chen's five most dreadful minutes.
It wasn't that he didn't want to dance, after all, who would want to do such a thing?
But he had no choice. Wu Tian's gaze at that moment was too terrifying.
He truly feared that if he didn't dance, Wu Tian would kill him.
As he finished his striptease dance, he also knew that his Li's Jewelry would no longer be able to hold its head high in the county's business circles.
The appearance of the twin jade had directly cemented Wu Tian's status.
Those who had previously scorned Wu Tian now revered him as a celestial being, extending olive branches to him one after another.
After all, they were not like the brainless madman Li Chen. They didn't believe Wu Tian was merely lucky but rather that he was truly capable.
If such a person could be used by them, wouldn't they be able to dominate the gambling stone market?
But Wu Tian understood their ulterior motives, so he politely declined all their overtures.
As he was chatting and laughing with the business people, suddenly, a well-dressed old man with white hair walked up to Wu Tian.
Upon seeing the old man, the business people's expressions changed slightly.
They took a step back and respectfully said to the old man, "Greetings, Elder Bai."
The old man smiled and then said to Wu Tian, "Young man, I saw what happened just now. You did very well."
Wu Tian did not recognize the old man and asked curiously, "Excuse me, who are you..."
