Chapter 103
The rock that Wilbur was pointing to was just for decor. The crowd wondered what was going on in his
mind, trying to buy something like that. How could a rock like that be worth anything at all?
Even the shop owner was confused. “Young man, this is just a decor item. It’s not a rock to bet on. You
must be mistaken.”
Wilbur said. “Yes, but you sell rocks, don’t you? This is a rock right here, so give me a price.”

“Uhm… The shop owner was a little conflicted. He had never experienced anything like this before and
was at a loss for how to respond.
Kenji smiled all of a sudden. “What’s this? Are you telling me that a rock like this could have a piece of
jade in it, buddy?”
“And what if it does Wilbur replied with a smile.

“We’ll keep it low. How about one million dollars? Kenji replied
The crowd gasped. Of course a rich guy like Kenji would think that was a low amount.
Everyone locked at Wilbur, curious to see how he would respond.
Wilbur frowned. “Can you tell me what we are betting on exactly?”
Kenji grinned. “If this rock here holds any trace of jade at all, I’ll lose. How’s that?”
“Oh, sure. You’re on. Wilbur accepted with a smile.
Kenji turned to the shop owner at once. “How much for this rock? Cut it open right now.”
The shop owner was a little nervous. These two men were obviously competing, now, especially Kenji.
He had a smile on his face, but anyone could tell he was seething with rage.

clearly desperate to get back at
Wilbur.

two as a gift? Don’t worry about payment!”
The crowd silently approved of the shop owner’s wisdom.
Kenji smirked. “Thanks for that. Cut it open.”

win for him.

Just then, the cutting machine launched into action as the decoration rock by the pond was cut open.
Wilbur sipped at his tea leisurely, not panicking in the slightest.
Kenji smirked to himself, chatting with the girls next to him
The crowd shook their heads as they glanced at Wilbur “What a silly guy,‘ they thought.
He had just been in a bidding war against Kenji, and now the two of them were betting against each
other for a million dollars over a rock Wilbur had spotted by the fake pond.
A minute or two later, the staff member operating the cutting machine let out a cry
“I see green!”
The crowd was shocked.
Some of them could hardly believe their ears, freezing on the spot for a long time.
