Chapter 1540: The stones had reduced in number

One after another, stones that were sent up in a line turned out worthless and were thrown away once they were cut open…

Slowly, the hills of black rock dwindled, leaving only a few scattered pieces on the ground of the warehouse.

More and more people came to watch, and many discussions were heard:

“Itʼs a loss! Itʼs a loss! Oh, this piece is a loss again!”

“Damn it, this bad luck is like nothing else… how many stones were worth nothing?”

“Mute Pao, stinky hands Liu and the Suo family, betting on rocks together? They are brave. With three of them together I am not surprised if they bought a mine and lost it all!”

“Ahem, keep your voice down if you donʼt want to cause trouble. Just shut up and watch.”

The King of Hpakant and Tun Qin, with faces longer than donkeys, stared at the broken pieces that were scattered around. There was a fire burning in their eyes.

Li Du calmly said, “Itʼs okay, we still have many stones.”

Someone took out five or six stones. Li Du said, “Take out ten pieces.”

Zhong Dapao said helplessly, “There is no more, this is all we have.”

At that moment, Li Du finally showed a surprised look. “What? No more? So many stones, gone? No, we havenʼt gained anything yet…”

Hearing this, The King Hpakant was enraged. He rushed to shove Li Du and shouted, “Iʼve been tolerating you for too long, you Chinese dog. You are not afraid of death, right? How can you be such an idiot?”

Li Du staggered backward, and Zhong Dapao and Liu Zi went up to stop the King of Hpakant.

Li Du was just a little disappointed and did not hit back in the first place, but when the King of Hpakant attacked him, he got angry as well. He dashed towards the King and kicked him in the belly, which almost made him fall to the ground. “Damn you! Who did you call a Chinese dog? We’ll see if you dare to open your filthy mouth again!”

The scene =immediately deteriorated to chaos while the King’s bodyguards dashed towards Li Du. Li Du had more bodyguards on his side, however. Brother Wolf and the others were ready and jumped right into the action.

The King staggered for a few steps and could barely keep himself upright. He was furious and pointed at Li Du, roaring, “Kill him! Drag out and kill this Chinese dog!”

Li Du was angry. He roared as he pointed at the King, “Damn you, get out of the way! Get out of my way, Iʼll beat the hell out of him!”

The expressions of the bodyguards plainly showed they were prepared to start a fight, and Zhong Dapao and Liu Zi, who stood between them, shouted, “Go back, all of you, go back!””F**k you, calm down! Calm down!”

The King Hpakant rushed up towards Li Du, but Tu Qin quickly pulled him back and said, “Master, calm down, violence cannot solve the problem, and we have to give Kannada Boss some reputation. Kannada Boss does not like violence to happen on their site!

Not willing to be outdone, Li Du was determined to go up and beat the King of Hpakant. Zhong Dapao and Liu Zu grabbed him from both sides and pushed him back. “Master Li, stop this. The matter is over.”

Tu Qinʼs words calmed King Hpakant a little. He was still angry, but no longer wanted to fight. He pointed at Li Du maliciously and said, “You are finished, I tell you, you are doomed!”

Li Du sneered and said, “You are raving. You think you can get me into trouble? Dream on!”

King Hpakant ignored him, but took a proud attitude and said to Zhong Dapao and Liu Zi, “Very good, you are very clever. You joined up and trapped me.”

Zhong Dapao protested, “How did we trap you? Yes, the stones here are worthless, but itʼs not just you who paid, right? Didnʼt we pay too?”

Liu Zi said, “Thatʼs right, itʼs not like you are the only one who lost here!”

They had cut more than two hundred stones. Here and there they did find some pieces of jade, but they were not of good quality. They either had bad color or water source, or were cracked or porous.

Looking at the pieces of broken and misshapen jade, the Kingʼs anger flared up again. “Damn it, you bastards still dare to talk? I spent a hundred million! A hundred million! You let me harvest this shit? A hundred million of investment and I won’t even earn back ten million!”

Li Du said, “Who said this is all junk? Thereʼs a lot of stuff in here! How do you know it’s all no good? We might get lucky yet!”

Zhong Dapao chimed in, “Right, there are some stones here with a bright green water source. They must be good. Take the bright ones and cut them.”

The King of Hpakant stepped forward to stop them and said, “You are now thinking about cutting my bright ore? Go to hell, not even in your dreams! Donʼt touch those bright stones, I depend on them to make up the loss.”

Zhong Dapao and the others’ expressions changed when they heard this. “What do you mean?”

“What I mean is simple. The bright ore is mine, and Iʼm not going to cut it. I will sell it as it is. Otherwise, how would I make up the loss of 100 million RMB?”

Zhong Dapao sneered and said, “So this is the way you cooperate? Cheat us to buy stones together, and in the end, keep them all for yourself?”

The King of Hpakant had solid reasoning here. Indeed, he could minimize his losses if he took all the bright ore and sold it in its raw state without cutting it.

Tu Qin shook his head and whispered, “Master, it will ruin our reputation and will not be worth the gain.”

The King of Hpakant pointed towards Zhong Dapao and the others and said, “Very well, continue to cut. If I lose, I am going to teach you a lesson.”

Li Du took his men into the warehouse and personally went to bring out the bright material inside.

He looked in and said with a look of surprise, “Eh, this is not right. The number of stones doesn’t add up!”

Zhong Dapao, who was at the doorway, asked, “Whatʼs not right?”

Li Du went to count the stones and called over his shoulder, “The number doesn’t add up, damn it. How many stones do we have? I remember it was more than thirty pieces!”

Zhong Dapao nodded and said, “Thatʼs right, thirty-four.”

Li Du cried, “So how come there are less than thirty pieces left? And if you come in and look, the marks arenʼt right either. Damn, there are fewer stones and some have been swapped!”

Zhong Dapao and Liu Zi ran in to look carefully and counted the stones one by one. Liu Zi said, “Yes, six stones missing.”

Li Du said, “The marks are not right either. Look at this stone. Although it has been sprayed with red paint, the paint is too dark. And I remember a half-green stone I bought for more than eight million dollars. Where is it?”

Zhong Dapao said with a sullen face, “I remember that stone, too. I liked it best, damn it. Where did it go?”

As he spoke, he turned his head and looked at the King of Hpakant.

The King laughed and said, “Damn you, what are you hinting at? Are you trying to blame me?”

Tu Qin went into the storehouse to have a look and his face turned pale.

Seeing his expression, the King had a bad feeling. “Tu Qin, what happened?”

Tu Qin said, “Boss, they’re right. Some of the stones are gone.”
