Chapter 302: Chapter 302 Fiery Eyes
"A farmer is just a farmer, always pretending to be something he’s not. I really want to see what you can pull off today!"
The middle-aged man mocked mercilessly.
Just then, the owner of the jade stone shop came out from the back with a ticket in hand and handed it to the middle-aged man.
"Tell me, boss, you’re supposed to be the most famous jade stone shop on this street, so why are you letting just anyone in? Doesn’t that lower the class of your shop?"
The middle-aged man took the ticket and said, looking at Wang Hao’s back.
At the moment, Wang Hao was feeling the jade stones on the counter and found that all of them were ordinary rocks without anything valuable inside.
The boss glanced at Wang Hao unwittingly following the middle-aged man’s gaze, and he felt a start of recognition, sensing that the figure was very familiar.
Just as Wang Hao finished looking, he picked up two small stones and approached the owner.
"Wang Hao? Mr. Wang!"
The shop owner suddenly shouted excitedly.
All those present were stunned by the outburst.
Wang Hao? Was this the same Wang Hao who had won 2.2 billion for the Wen Family at the jade stone auction?
The middle-aged man’s face instantly turned pale when he heard this, and he whispered in the owner’s ear.
"Boss, are you sure you’re seeing clearly? This guy looks like a plain farmer, how could he be Wang Hao? You must be mistaken!"
The middle-aged man still couldn’t believe it. freewēbnoveℓ.com
"I remember it very clearly and I won’t mistake him. It’s his unique aura that’s unforgettable. He’s indeed Wang Hao, and he’s also a benefactor of our little shop!"
The shop owner said, laughing heartily.
"Mr. Wang Hao, what brings you to our humble shop today? If you had informed us earlier, I could have sent a car to pick you up! Whatever you fancy today, I’ll give you a fifty percent discount!"
The arrival of Wang Hao filled the jade stone shop owner with extreme excitement.
"I found these two little things quite appealing so I thought I might as well buy them to play with!"
Wang Hao suddenly placed the two oddly shaped jade stones on the counter.
The eyes of the people around them were immediately drawn to the two peculiar stones; they all stared intently. fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com
They all believed that if this man was indeed Wang Hao, then the stones he picked out would definitely contain something good.
"Still claiming to be Wang Hao? Don’t make me laugh. I thought you were really skilled, but it turns out they’re just two ordinary stones with nothing good inside!"
Upon seeing the two stones Wang Hao had selected, the middle-aged man began to laugh scornfully.
Others shook their heads in agreement as well, because those two stones indeed seemed very ordinary, not as if they had anything valuable inside.
"What’s wrong with you? So rude and unreasonable. Whether I am Wang Hao or not, what concern is it of yours? Since I walked in, you’ve been targeting me. Do you think you’re somebody important?"
Wang Hao could no longer bear it.
"I bet you’re just a shill the shop owner brought in, pretending to be Wang Hao and choosing jade stones, just trying to trick us into buying all these useless rocks, aren’t you?"
The middle-aged man thought he was very clever, believing he had seen through everything, and spoke as if to himself.
"You claim to be Wang Hao, then show your real skill and prove it!"
Wang Hao couldn’t help but give a wry smile as he spoke.
"Then if you say I’m not Wang Hao, bring out some evidence!"
"This..."
The middle-aged man was left speechless by the question, not knowing how to answer, and finally resorted to being stubborn.
"Anyway, my gut tells me you’re not Wang Hao. If you insist you’re the jade betting expert Wang Hao, then it’s perfect. Just show us some of that skill to prove it!"
"Exactly, Wang Hao is a master in this field; not just anyone can impersonate him."
"Right, empty words are not enough; hurry up and show your real skill!"
The crowd around them joined in the commotion.
Originally, Wang Hao had only wanted to come in and ask the shop owner about the whereabouts of that strange old man, but he hadn’t expected to encounter such a group of fools.
With so many people making a racket, Wang Hao couldn’t inquire about the situation from the shop owner in peace, so he thought of quickly dealing with these noisy people and turned to the middle-aged man.
"How do you want me to prove it before you’re willing to believe it?"
"This..."
The middle-aged man glanced at the piece of jade in his hand and said.
"How about this, you help me appraise this piece of jade I have here, and it just so happens that the shop owner has professional cutting tools."
"After you’ve appraised it, we’ll cut open the jade right in front of everyone. If you really guess it right, then we’ll believe you are Wang Hao."
After saying this, the middle-aged man placed the piece of jade in front of Wang Hao.
"There’s no need to look at this piece of jade anymore!"
Wang Hao casually glanced at the jade on the table and said languidly.
"This piece of jade is a fine piece, and even more so, it is an exceptional top-quality jadeite with clear water and superior texture. Most importantly, the last eight inches contains a rare large piece of jade."
"If you want to sell it, it’s definitely going to be worth a pretty penny, far exceeding its original price of one million five hundred thousand."
After hearing this, everyone around was stunned.
This kid is really putting on airs. He didn’t even study the stone closely, not even touching it, yet he could judge the quality and size of the jade so accurately? This act was too ostentatious.
He must be talking nonsense; such a claim was unheard of before!
Almost everyone didn’t believe what Wang Hao said.
"Owner, cut it open for me now!"
The middle-aged man gave the jade to the shop owner and then said to Wang Hao.
"Kid, you think you can know the structure inside the jade just by looking at it from afar, as if you really have Fiery Eyes. Today I’ll let you see, talking nonsense comes with a price."
"If you guess wrong today, you’re going to have to pay me double for this jade."
Wang Hao shrugged his shoulders.
"I wish I could make a mistake, but I’ve looked at so many pieces of jade, and I haven’t been wrong once!"
The middle-aged man frowned at Wang Hao’s blind confidence, urging the shop owner to cut the jade quickly.
As the sound of the machinery started, everyone held their breath, not daring to make a sound, afraid of missing any detail.
Although not a single person believed what Wang Hao said, they were even more eager to know whether this one million five hundred thousand piece of jade had any substance to it.
"Crack!"
The jade was cut in half and split open on the ground.
The shop owner carefully placed the jade on the counter, instantly drawing exclamations from all those present.
"Everyone, look, it really is a flawless piece of jadeite!"
"Eight inches, it really is exactly eight inches, no more, no less!"
"This kid really does have Fiery Eyes, it’s like a miracle!"
"Just by looking from a distance, he knew what was inside, this guy must be Wang Hao without a doubt. In Zao City, the only one who could do this is Wang Hao!"
The people immediately all turned their gazes toward Wang Hao, eyes full of admiration. This was a man who had created a miracle in the jade gambling world, not someone they could meet just by wishing it.
The middle-aged man’s face went pale instantly.
Seeing everyone’s gaze, the shop owner glanced at Wang Hao and asked in a low voice.
"Mr. Wang, are these two pieces also high-quality jade? I remember the last time you bought a small piece of jade from that strange old man, and each one was worth over a hundred million. Could it be that these two pieces are also..."
