“Mr. Willis, you have to understand that even though there may be impurities in the Yellow Dragon Jade produced from my mine, a ton of raw Yellow Dragon Jade is worth at least tens of millions. When I explored it initially, although the vein was notrge, it was estimated to produce at least a thousand tons of raw stone? That’s 10 billion!” Gibbsite and L were doing some calctions.


    When L heard this number, his eyelids couldn’t help but twitch.


    Damn! 10 billion?


    He was still too poor!


    “Mr. Aguirre, can’t we calcte the ount like this? 10 billion is not your profit since you still need to hire workers to dig it out and then sell it. This includes various costs such asbor fees for mining, storage and sales. After I get this mine from you, all these expenses will be on me,” said L in a deep voice.


    Gibbsite nodded quickly and said, “Yes! Mr. Willis, you make sense.”


    “I haven’t finished yet… So if we remove those costs and add my friendly price for you, Mr. Willis, would you give me 5 billion? Then I’ll give you the mining rights. How about that?” Gibbsite continued speaking.


    “5 billion…” When L heard this number, he looked at Gibbsite with an odd expression on his face.


    What the hell!


    This guy was pricing based on how much money he had in hand, right?


    If he really took over this mine site himself, then he might as well go bankrupt overnight!


    But as long as he can break through to Golden Core Realm within a short period of time, then 5 billion would actually be worth it.


    Seeing L’s strange expression, Gibbsite thought that 5 billion had scared off his “sucker.”


    Actually, he was also demanding sky-high prices, waiting for L to pay back what he owed. Seeing L’s changing expression without saying a word, he smiled and said, “Of course, Mr. Willis, if you’re sincerely interested in buying, the price can still be negotiated.” It was hard toe across such a fool who actually wanted to buy this mine. Gibbsite didn’t want to scare him away directly!


    “So, Mr. Willis, why don’t you tell me the price you have in mind?” Gibbsite cautiously asked.


    L pondered for a few seconds and finally said, “How about taking me to see this mine first?”


    In fact, even if it cost 5 billion, L could still ept it. Of course, before that, he wanted to confirm once again that this was indeed the ce where the Earth Marvel Soil Crystal was produced.


    Upon hearing L’s request, Gibbsite’s eyes flickered for a moment, and then he nodded with a smile, saying, “Of course, it’s possible!”


    …


    A momentter, Gibbsite, apanied by Carson and several burly men, brought L to the entrance of a mine. Outside the entrance, there were many raw Yellow Dragon Jade stones piled up, as if they had just been mined from inside.


    At this time, several miners came out, pulling a minecart filled with raw stones.


    “Mr. Willis, these are all just mined from inside. You can take a look here! The mine is too dirty and quite dangerous, so there’s no need for you to go inside,” Gibbsite said politely, seemingly considering L’s well-being.


    At this moment, Carson picked up a piece of raw stone with a translucent orange-yellow skin and handed it to L.


    “Mr. Willis, take a look. The material is still the same asst time. You bought a batch before, so you should be familiar with it, right?”


    L smiled ambiguously, a hint of mockery and annoyance appearing in his eyes. He infused Dragon Energy into his eyes, already seeing through everything. The piled-up raw stones here, including the ones being theatrically pulled out of the mine by the workers, were indeed simr in quality to the ones he had purchasedst time.


    However, the ones pressed underneath were no longer considered Yellow Dragon Jade stones. Those stones were almost entirely filled with “impurities,” and the structure of the Yellow Dragon Jade had beenpletely destroyed. To ordinary people, these stones were no different from worthless rocks. And these stones were probably the ones freshly mined, right?


    In other words, for a raw stone dealer, this Yellow Dragon Jade pit had almost no value left.


    Of course, those “impurities” were treasures for L. But this didn’t change the fact that Jarrett and Carson wanted to deceive him.


    In fact, with L’s abilities, he could easily sneak into this mine and absorb the Earth Marvel Soil Crystal within. However, he felt that since this Yellow Dragon Jade vein belonged to Jarrett, it wouldn’t be appropriate for him to do so. As a cultivator, he despised such sneaky actions to take advantage of ordinary people.Ccontent ? exclusive by N?/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.


    So L didn’t mind paying a high price for this mine, giving him deserved benefits.


    But now, it seemed… he was being taken for a fool!


    He didn’t want to take advantage of others, but he didn’t expect others to treat him as a scapegoat. Since that was the case, why should he still hold back?


    If you’re merciless, don’t me me for being unjust. Do you really think I’m a fool with money who insists on buying from you?


    Wouldn’t it be great if I came over quietly in the middle of the night without you knowing?


    “Mr. Aguirre, I have other things to attend to today. Let’s talk another day,” L said nonchntly, intending to leave.


    Upon hearing these words, Gibbsite was momentarily stunned, and then his expression changed abruptly.


    “Mr. Willis, what do you mean? Let’s talk another day?”


    “What’s wrong? Are you not satisfied with the price? How much can you offer? Let’s hear it,” Carson pulled L and said, “Mr. Willis, don’t leave. Whatever your requirements are, we can negotiate! Let me tell you, if you miss this opportunity, you won’t find such a cheap jade mine anywhere else.”


    “Sorry, it’s not about the money.”


    L shook off Carson’s hand expressionlessly and shook his head lightly.


    As he spoke, he was about to turn and leave.


    He felt extremely displeased that they were treating him like a fool. Although he disdained confronting them directly, he was also unwilling to continue with the pretense.


    Seeing this, Gibbsite’s face immediately darkened, and he gave a signal to the several burly men beside him.


    These people directly blocked L’s path, their expressions turning unfriendly.


    “Are you ying games with Mr. Aguirre? Mr. Aguirre has been talking to you for so long, and you’ve been looking around the mine. Now you want to leave just like that? Do you think you can just walk away? Huh?”


    A burly man with a wolf head tattooed on his neck sneered and asked L.


    “Oh? I want to leave. Can you guys stop me?” L couldn’t help butugh and asked yfully.


    “Want to try?” the burly man asked harshly.


    At this moment, Gibbsite approached L with a fake smile on his face and said, “Mr. Willis, you really don’t y by the rules, do you? What’s the matter? You can’te up with several billion? That’s fine… If you can’t afford the entire mine, at least buy these raw stones in front of you. I’ll give you a friendly price, a total of 200 million!”
