    Andrew quickly interjected, trying to caution Nichs. “Nichs, this stone is worthless–it doesn’t contain any jade. Henry, the top appraiser from Florida, has already examined it. The red glow you see isn’t Blood Jade; it’s just a piece of red ss. If you spend three million on it’ll merely be wasting your money!”


    “Florida’s top appraiser, Henry?” Nichs looked toward Henry with augh. “Henry’s reputation precedes him! As far as I know, Henry has an almost wless record in jade gambling. If he’s here, he must be participating in Jade Gambling too. I’m curious how any purchases he’s made tonight have turned out.”


    Henry felt a bit awkward fielding Nichs’s question, but after many years in the industry, he knew he had to defend himself, and he openly admitted his mistake. “I have already purchased a stone, unfortunately making an incorrect decision.”


    “Did you really take a close look at this stone Daniel picked, Henry? Is the redness inside truly not Blood Jade, but a piece of red ss?” Nichs pressed him further.


    Caught off guard by the question, Henry hesitated. To im it was red ss would mean admitting a tant fib, both to himself and to Nichs, and he could not jeopardize his reputation with such dishonesty. So instead of a direct answer, he replied, “I only nced at this stone roughly. Whether it’s Blood Jade or ss, I would need a closer evaluation.”


    “Then, please, Henry, take a careful look at this stone,” Nichs urged, passing the stone to Henry.


    After a meticulous inspection, Henry came to his conclusion. “This is <i>no </i>ss; it truly is Blood Jade. However, the quality is quite ordinary, at best mid–grade. Judging from the pattern, this Blood Jade piece won’t be veryrge–no bigger than a coin, perhaps. Even extracted, this Blood Jade piece might only be worth a hundred thousand at most. Buying this stone for three million would not be a wise choice!”


    Nichs silently concurred with Henry’s assessment, as it was close to his own observations. Still, he chose to believe in Daniel. Past experiences taught Nichs that doubting Daniel usually meant trouble


    for him.


    “Henry says this Blood Jade might be worth a hundred thousand, tops, while Daniel believes it could be


    worth at least five million. My opinion is to trust only what I can see with my own eyes! To determine


    whether Henry’s judgment is more urate or Daniel’s skills are superior, I’ve decided to purchase the


    stone for three million. Let’s cut it in half and show everyone what’s really inside.”


    With the stone in hand, Nichs gave themand, and the staff member’s small electric saw buzzed


    into life, slicing through the stone. The palm–sized rock was quickly bisected.


    As the stone split open, the interior surfaced for all to see.
