While eating at the restaurant just now, Xia Li mentioned that the fist-sized stone Guo Xuyang gave to Xin Rui was worth thirty million.
There were so many stones in this vault, each weighing at least three to five kilograms, with the largest weighing several tons. How much were they all worth?
Everyone gasped in unison.
"Yangzi, what if I choose this one?" Xin Rui pointed at the largest raw stone and asked.
"I can't make that decision."
"How much is this stone worth?"
"It depends on who buys it. If I buy it, five hundred million should be enough to secure it."
"What if you sell it?"
"If it's cut open, I can't estimate its value. But if it's sold as a whole piece, I won't sell it for less than thirty billion."
"My goodness, that's a huge profit!"
"Otherwise, how could I support all of you?"
"Hmph, as if we're so useless. Can we pick any one we want?"
"Of course, I brought you here for you to pick one. One for each person, and I'll cover anything under five kilograms," Guo Xuyang said.
"You still need to pay for this?"
"Naturally. These are all shareholders', not mine. I'll gift each of you one to see how lucky you are. But I'll say this upfront, bigger doesn't necessarily mean better material inside, and smaller doesn't necessarily mean worthless. Go choose, and be careful not to get hit by a stone."
"Got it." Xin Rui said, and started climbing onto the pile of stones.
"Be careful, you don't need to climb so high," Guo Xuyang called from below.
"It's okay, I'm being careful."
Before he finished speaking, his foot slipped, and he almost fell. A stone rolled down from above, about to hit Xin Rui.
"Xin Xin, dodge quickly!" Xia Li shouted in alarm.
At this moment, Xin Rui was only focused on her footing and couldn't see the stone above.
"Collect," Guo Xuyang muttered urgently.
The falling stone vanished abruptly. Guo Xuyang couldn't just watch Xin Rui get injured by the stone, so he had to use his special ability.
The few people seemed to see things they shouldn't have. A large stone had clearly rolled down, so where did it go?
Only Yu'er knew what was happening. Seeing everyone in a daze, she quickly said, "Yangzi is finally being generous for once, hurry and choose. What are you all standing around for?" As she spoke, she casually bent down and picked up a stone from the ground, "I'll pick this one."
Everyone looked over. It was a stone right under Yu'er's feet, weighing about three to four kilograms.
"Not bad, there's a small surprise inside," Guo Xuyang said after a glance. Inside was a piece of high-ice imperial green jade, more than enough to make a pair of bracelets, worth at least two hundred million.
Seeing this, everyone else also went down to find their own stones.
"Xin Xin, hurry down! The ones above aren't necessarily good, and the ones below aren't necessarily bad," Xia Li called.
"I don't know anything about stones. I just like this feeling, having tens or even hundreds of billions of yuan of stones beneath my feet. It feels so good," Xin Rui said playfully.
So that was her intention. Everyone rolled their eyes in unison. They had thought she was just greedy, but as soon as she spoke, she started climbing up. They never expected her to have such a thought.
"Feeling good? Now that you're done feeling good, come down quickly, don't fall," Guo Xuyang said.
This statement had a double meaning, and everyone rolled their eyes again.
"Why don't you say, 'Now that you're done feeling aroused, come down'? Wouldn't that be better?" Xin Rui retorted.
"You think everyone is as vulgar as you, shamelessly so."
"There's a big scoundrel among us, but unfortunately, it's not me."
Alas, arguing with women was purely asking for trouble. He wisely shut his mouth.
