Facing such humiliated provocation, people in Jol City were all enraged.
But only Keen could compete with Gage Zhou here.
Gage must come here with some excellent masters. But they had to accept his challenge. Otherwise, all the people in Jol City here would be ashamed.
“Since Mr. Zhou wants to challenge us, we have to play with you.” Keen had to accept it.
“Good. Let play three rounds, and the one who wins two rounds is the winner. Five hundred million for each round and the loser can buy stones only from the winner in the future. How about that?” Gage proposed.
Keen’s face changed a lot.
It was not about money, but the importing channel of stones.
The winner could monopolize the business of stones.
Keen bit his lips, looking around. “What’s your idea?”
Zuo’s Family controlled the jewel business in Jol City, and other jewelers were just followers.
So Keen need them to take the results of loss together.
“Mr. Zuo, it’s all up to you. We can bet together.” The jewelers were irritated by Gage’s provocation.
“Good. I accept your challenge.” Keen nodded to Gage.
“Mr. Zuo, let’s start.” Gage laughed.
“Master Huang, now it’s your turn to help us,” Keen said to York, his face full of seriousness.
The three professors specialized in different aspects.
And York Huang was the master of distinguishing the stones.
“I can’t promise to win. After all, I’m just somehow skilled in Jol City, and there are many experts superior to me in our country.” York honestly said.
“Master York, you’re the best in our city, so you are the only one who may win.” Keen requested.
People around requested, as well, so York had to have a try with uncertainty.
Gage must come with experts who might be much more skilled than York.
“It’s related to our city’s dignity, so please win.” People urged.
“I’m going to try my best.” York nodded.
“Don’t put pressure on master York.” Keen stopped people around.
“Master Silas, it’s all up to you,” Gage said to an old man in a green robe.
“OK, let them show their abilities to me.” The old man glanced at York with disdain.
“Hello, I’m York Huang, a little skilled in distinguishing stones.” York reached out his hand.
But the old man didn’t intend to shake hands with York. “York Huang? I haven’t heard about you, so you must be really a little skilled.”
York was embarrassed.
“Alright, let’s start,” Keen said with anger.
York snorted and then went to choose a stone.
The old man laughed. He just casually pick up a stone.
His arrogance made people in Jol City furious, but soon they would know why this old man was so arrogant.
Both of them guessed the kind right in the first round, but as for the purity, York’s error was 30g, and the old man 15g, a great gap.
Keen was anxious and hopeless.
Cold sweat flew down from York’s forehead. He had to admit that the old man was much more skilled than him.
“Remember my name, Silas Zheng. Do you want to continue?” The old man laughed.
What? Silas Zheng? The NO. 3 master in distinguishing stones in the country?
People were stupefied. York was not of the same high level as Silas.
How could they defeat such a skilled master?
“It’s master Zheng. Please forgive my impoliteness.” York sighed.
“Mr. Keen, please ask for help from someone superior. I can’t do this.” York apologized to Keen, and then he left the stage.
“Master York, it’s the last round…” Keen still wanted York to give a try because he couldn’t find another master who studied stones so much.
York shook his head. He could have a try if it were someone of the same ability as him, but it would be ashamed to compete with someone much superior to him.
Keen’s heart sank. Money was insignificant, but the dignity and the importing channel were so crucial.
“Mr. Zuo, do you want to continue?” Gage laughed with complacence.
Keen’s face was terrible. If he lost the importing channel, his position as the successor would be doubted.
“No one is skilled in distinguishing stones in Jol City, so even if we compete for one hundred rounds, they will still lose.” Silas laughed.
Other jewelers from City Z was complacent, too.
“As for the second round, we give up…” Keen gritted his teeth, ready to give up. Since he couldn’t defeat Gage, it would be useless to ask someone else to continue.
“Let me have a try.”
Just at this moment, a young man jumped on the stage to stop Keen.
It was just Chase who couldn’t endure anymore.
