L contacted Carson a day in advance and arranged to meet him today.


    After getting on the car, L made another phone call to confirm.


    Hr arrived at Lacrusau County, at a Yellow Dragon Jade mine site.


    After finishing the call, Carson smiled and said to a burly middle-aged man beside him, “Boss, that fool should be here in a little over an hour.”


    The middle-aged man, around forty years old with a beefy face and a tattoo of a Kylin on his arm, adorned himself withrge gold chains and a gold watch. He looked like a typical nouveau riche and troublemaker. This middle-aged man was Jarrett Aguirre, also known as Gibbsite, Carson’s boss.


    In Laenteglos Town, he had previously owned three jade mines and was considered a prominent figure. But now, with this new Yellow Dragon Jade mine in his possession, he might as well be called Gabbsite.


    Several tough guys apanied Gibbsite, and it was evident that they were not to be trifled with.


    Someone who could control multiple jade mines was naturally not to be underestimated in local influence, straddling the line between legality and illegality.


    “He’sing? Good!” Gibbsite nodded and nced in the direction of the mine entrance, a faint cunning expression appearing on his face.


    Despite his burly appearance, anyone who could rise to the top couldn’t possibly becking in intelligence.


    One could even say that Gibbsite had more twists and turns in his mind than anyone else.


    Initially, when he discovered this jade mine, he thought he was about to make a fortune. But now, the vein of this mine had encountered significant problems. If he didn’t find a way to process more batches of raw stones, he would likely end up with a catastrophic loss.


    …


    At ten o’clock that morning, as soon as L got off the car, he was greeted by Carson, who took him to their destination.


    The jade mine site was not open-air but had several mine entrances leading to the depths of the mine.


    Upon getting off the car, L saw a burly middle-aged man approaching with a group of tough guys.


    He warmly weed them, saying, “Oh, this must be Mr. Willis, right? I’m the owner here, Jarrett! Aguirre”


    “I heard you’re also friends with Mr. Atkinson? Mr. Atkinson oftenes to my mine to purchase, so we’re all on the same side! Haha…”


    After Gibbsite arrived, he shook hands with L and smiled. He was extremely warm and generous in his demeanor.


    “Mr. Aguirre, nice to meet you. I came specifically because I heard Mr. Atkinson mention your attention to detail and your passion for Yellow Dragon Jade,” L politely said, then looked towards the mine entrance and asked with a smile, “Is this the vein that produced thest batch?”


    After exchanging a few pleasantries, Gibbsite nodded and said, “Yes, this is it. Come, let’s go to the office and have a seat.”


    Gibbsite led L to the office, which was essentially a colorful corrugated metal house set up on the site.


    After they sat down, Gibbsite smiled and said, “I heard you liked thest batch? Well, you’vee to the right ce. Not to brag, but even though the Yellow Dragon Jade produced in my mine has some impurities, the advantage is that it’s cheap, right? Since you’re friends with Mr. Atkinson, if you need arge quantity, I can offer you the lowest price, the same as thest batch Mr. Atkinson purchased. Mr. Willis, what do you think?”


    Gibbsite made a grand gesture and asked in a very generous manner.


    “Oh? The same price as Mr. Atkinson’sst purchase? What exactly is the price?” L asked calmly.


    Gibbsite had an air of arrogance on his face. “Well, the lowest price for Yellow Dragon Jade raw stones on the market is at least 20, 000 dors per kilogram, which is 20 million per ton. Thest batch I sold to Mr. Atkinson was about a ton, and I charged him 10 million, which is half of the market’s lowest price. I can offer you the same price. How about that?”


    Upon hearing this, L raised an eyebrow and continued to ask, “What if I want a lot?”


    Gibbsite’s expression froze for a moment, and a glint shed in his eyes. “A lot? How much, specifically?”


    At this point, Gibbsite was willing to sell as much as possible. When he heard L’s question, he became even more excited and thrilled.


    “As much as you want! If possible, I even want to acquire the entire mine,” said L relentlessly.


    Being at the jade mine site, although L hadn’t entered the mine yet, he could already sense a rtively strong earth elemental aura in the air.


    So he was certain that this ce produced Earth Marvel Soil Crystal. He didn’t know how much Earth Marvel Soil Crystal he needed to break through, so he nned to acquire the entire mine directly.


    Cultivation was always a very expensive endeavor, and L had long been prepared for it.


    With the umtion of previous pill sales and the profits he received from working with the Graham family, he had amassed over five billion dors. Therefore, he spoke with confidence.N?velDrama.Org holds ? this.


    After L finished speaking, Gibbsite’s eyes widened, and Carson, who was standing beside him, also wore a surprised expression. “What? As much as you want? You even want to… buy the entire mine?”


    After recovering from his shock, Gibbsite’s face turned slightly red, and his voice carried a hint of questioning. At this moment, he was excited and almost burst intoughter.


    Carson also showed excitement and praised L, “Mr. Willis, you’re truly bold!”


    Now that there was a problem with this mine, Gibbsite wanted to process as many raw stones as possible and make more money.


    Carson had brought L, this “fool,” and Gibbsite was undoubtedly going to reward him.


    The fact that this “fool” expressed an indiscriminate interest in these Yellow Dragon Jade raw stones, wanting as much as possible and even wanting to buy the entire mine, meant that he had done a great service for Gibbsite.


    When the time came, the boss would surely give him a significant share, at least several million dors.


    At this moment, Gibbsite indeed cast an appreciative look at Carson and then tentatively asked L, “Mr. Willis, it’s not impossible for you to acquire the entire mine, but in terms of money… it might not be a small amount.”


    L nodded. “I understand! Mr. Aguirre, please give me an approximate figure.”


    Gibbsite took a deep breath, and his eyes flickered a few times. The mine already had problems, and if a knowledgeable local boss were to take over, leaving aside whether they would even ept it, it probably wouldn’t be worth much. If someone could offer Gibbsite a billion dors, he would probably happily sell it. But now…


    Gibbsite looked at L, and a cold smile shed deep in his eyes. This guy clearly didn’t know much about the business, and he was an outsider. He seemed like a wealthy second-generation from some family, acting foolish and having too much money. Who else should he swindle if not him?
