Chapter 202 Ridiculous


    Abraham and Caleb did not look over. They felt that there was no one worthy of their attention in this


    small county, so their attitude was quite contemptuous.


    But when they heard Casey''s voice, they immediately turned their heads to look over.


    Both Abraham and Caleb showed incredible expressions on their faces. They did not expect to meet


    Casey in this ce.


    "Casey, why are you here?" Abraham said.


    "Help a friend to pick stones. This time it looks like you have be my opponent again. If you lose to


    me again, I don''t know whether you can continue to be called the master." Casey smiled.


    Abraham’s expression immediately became terrible. Since he lost to Casey at the Gray Mansion, his


    influence in the antique circle in J City had be much smaller. If he lost to Casey again this time, he


    might not be the master anymore.


    Abraham gritted his teeth secretly. He originally thought if he helped Benjamin to get involved in the


    jade rough stone business, he could also get some benefits when Benjamin became famous.


    But now seeing that Casey was here, Abraham immediately felt a little guilty.


    When Riley heard Casey say this, he hurriedly said to Abraham, "Mr. Abraham, this young man is


    ignorant. He is talking nonsense here. Don''t mind. How could you lose to him, a brat in his twenties?"


    Because Riley came with Leonardo, Abraham felt that Riley was like to mock him instead of


    Caleb was also full of anger. He red at Riley and said coldly, "You don’t have to make fun of us. The


    reason why my master lost to himst time was just my master didn’t use his all strength. Don’t forget


    it’s gambling on stones, not appraising treasures this time. There is a big difference between the two.


    You’re impossible to defeat my master again."


    Riley was immediately stunned when he heard Caleb''s words. Hearing what Caleb said, Abraham


    seemed to have really lost to Casey once.


    Riley looked at Casey in disbelief. He always felt that Casey just bragged. Now it seemed that Casey


    was not as simple as he thought.


    "There is no essential difference between gambling on stones and appraising treasures. They are just a


    Abraham snorted coldly, obviously looking very angry.


    "Mr. Abraham, who is he? Why does he dare to be so arrogant in front of you?" Benjamin asked.


    "It''s just an arrogant brat." Abraham snorted coldly.


    Benjamin looked at Casey up and down. He felt a little familiar with Casey, and then he asked, "Are you


    are from J City? Why do I feel that I have seen you?"


    "My name is Casey." Casey said.


    Benjamin immediately remembered why he felt a little familiar with Casey. When Casey and Edith got

    married, he also went to the wedding party.


    "Casey, aren''t you a famous wimp in J City? You dare to say that you can defeat Mr. Abraham. It''s so


    ridiculous." Benjamin sneered.


    Casey smiled, and said, "They two said the same words as you back then."


    The expressions of Abraham and Caleb both looked terrible. Both of them lost to Casey. If Casey were


    a wimp, wouldn''t they both be inferior to a wimp?


    "Hmph, don''t get cocky here. Today I will definitely defeat you!" Abraham snorted, then turned and


    walked into the exhibition hall.


    When Caleb and Benjamin saw this, they hurriedly followed Abraham.


    Looking at the three people, Leonardo curled his lips, and said, "Does he want to defeat Casey? It''s so


    ridiculous."


    After that, Leonardo, Riley and Casey walked into the exhibition hall.


    The space in the exhibition hall was veryrge. One side was the observation area of the rough stones


    and the other side was the auction area. The main process was to observe all the stones in the


    observation area, and then the staff in the exhibition hall would auction them in order. The one who


    offered the higher price could get the stone.


    Because of therge number of rough stones, all the rough stones couldn’t be put down at the


    observation area at one time, so there were two rounds of this auction. The rough stones currently


    ced in the observation area belonged to the first round of auctions.


    After Casey, Riley and Leonardo entered the exhibition hall, they went to the observation area to


    observe the rough stones one by one.


    Abraham was also watching these stones carefully. But from time to time he would look at Casey, with


    hostility and slight fear in his eyes.


    For Casey, each stone only took him one or two minutes to observe. His expression was always calm,


    without any panic at all.


    The more Casey was calm, the more anxious Abraham was. He feared that he would lose to Casey


    again. If so, he would be very difficult to survive in the antique circle and stone gambling circle in the


    future.


    After a while, they met. Both Casey and Abraham''s eyes fell on a dim stone.


    "The surface of this stone is dim, and the outer skin is rough. When the shlight is on it, it doesn''t


    have the slightest light transmittance. I think it is a waste stone." Abraham said.


    Benjamin heard it and immediately wrote it down. This stone was in his cklist today.


    Casey also stared at the stone. His first reaction was the same as Abraham''s. He felt that there was


    nothing special about this stone.


    But soon he noticed that there were some seaweed-like patterns among the ridges on the surface of


    the stone. Such patterns were generally rare. Many experts in the stone gambling circle didn''t know


    what this pattern was.


    Casey had seen it in an ancient book. This kind of pattern would only appear when there was a very


    high-purity jade in the stone.


    He immediatelyughed, and said to Leonardo who was beside him, "Pay attention to this stone.


    Maybe you can get something good."


    Riley on the side listened to Casey''s words, and immediately said, "This stone has no value at first


    nce. The auctioneer will mix several pieces of such waste stones in the exhibits every year to fool


    those who do not know how to gamble on stones. If you really know how to gamble on stones, you


    probably wouldn''t make such a low-level mistake."


    Abraham immediately sneered and said, "Casey, although you’re not bad at appraising treasures, it is a


    pity that gambling on stones is very different from appraising treasures. If you don''t understand, don''t


    mislead others here."


    "I just know that he doesn’t know how to gamble on stones. He can''t even see the most basic things.


    It''s ridiculous that he said he can defeat my master." Caleb sneered.


    "Before cutting it open, who dares to determine if there are no good things inside? If you can see


    through it, what''s the point of gambling on stones?" Casey said with a smile.


    "Don''t make excuses for yourself. You just don''t know. Don’t bluff here. Even I know that this stone is


    definitely not good." Caleb sneered.


    Casey ignored them, but continued to look at other stones.


    Abraham looked smug. He thought that he finally could win a round in front of Casey.


    Casey continued to look at the remaining stones and talked to Leonardo. Then they came to the front


    of the stone that received the most attention today.


    Most of the people who came to the auction today came for this stone. The stone had a smooth color


    and a faint green light on the surface. Such a stone didn’t often appear at auction. Everyone thought


    the stone would definitely have good jade materials inside at today''s auction.


    This stone was number one to be auctioned. It seemed that many people were interested in this stone


    today. But they all knew that they had no chance to get such an obvious good stone.


    In the past, this stone would definitely be fallen into Leonardo’s hand. Besides, today Leonardo and


    Benjamin wouldpete the stone, then they must have no hope.


    Casey stared at the stone. At first nce, the stone was indeed very beautiful. No matter what angle it


    looked at, it seemed that there were good jade materials inside.


    But soon, Casey noticed that the color of this stone was green with a little bit of yellowish. If others


    didn''t look closely, they couldn''t see the difference.


    Moreover, the appearance of this stone was too smooth. The touch feeling was even better than


    ordinary jades. This situation was rare. When Casey was in B City, he encountered such a situation


    once. But there was only a thinyer jade inside of that stone, while the rest was ordinary stone, which


    was of low value.


    Now this stone was very simr to the one Casey saw at that time. So Casey somewhat suspected that


    this stone just looked well on the surface.


    "It just looks good. In fact, there isn’t anything good inside." Casey said.


    Abraham immediately sneered and said, "If you don''t know how to gamble on stones, just don''t pretend


    here. Don''t disturb everyone''s judgment here. Do you think that you can make a good stone be a


    bad stone with your just one sentence?"


    "Boy, in terms of gambling on stones, don''tpare yourself with Mr. Abraham. Today I will get this


    stone no matter what." Benjamin said.


    Leonardo red at Benjamin and said, "Don''t think too much of yourself. Don''t forget. Yutian County is


    my territory."


    Benjamin just sneered and didn''t say anything.


    It didn''t take long for the auction to start. The staff auctioned the stones in order. The first one was


    naturally the No. 1 stone, which was recognized as the best stone today.


    Because the probability of this stone having good jade materials was too high, everyone raised the


    price. Finally, this price of the stone was to 100 million.


    If the stone really had good jade materials, the return of this stone might be more than 300 million.


    Benjamin felt that it was almost done, so he started quoting 150 million. Everyone was quiet.


    Leonardo wanted to make a bid at this time, but was stopped by Casey.


    "You don’t have topete this stone with him. You only need to auction the stones I told you." Casey


    said.


    "But Casey, this stone is obviously..." Leonardo was a little worried.


    "Since you let mee, then listen to me." Casey said.


    Leonardo gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, since Casey said that, then I will listen to you."


    Then Leonardo put down his quoting card.


    Benjamin was still waiting for Leonardo to make a bid, but he didn''t expect that Leonardo didn’t make a


    bid at all.


    This could not help making him sneer.


    "Leonardo actually listened to that brat''s words. He didn''t even fight for this stone. He threw a great


    opportunity to me." Benjamin said with a smile.


    "Casey doesn''t know how to gamble on stones. If we get this stone, Mr. Benjamin will definitely have a


    ce in Yutian County in the future." Caleb said with a smile.


    Benjamin nodded. After a while, a person gritted his teeth and quoted the price. Benjamin immediately


    raised the price again.


    In the end, this stone fell into Benjamin''s hands at a price of 180 million.


    The rest stones were auctioned one by one. Leonardo auctioned a few stones ording to Casey''s


    orders. Among those stones, Abraham also took a fancy, so the final price was a bit high.


    After a while, it was No. 36 stone’s turn, which was the stone that everyone looked down upon it.


    As soon as the stone came out, after waiting for a long time, no one raised price. The host thought that


    the stone was going to pass.


    But just when the host was about to hit the hammer, Casey suddenly raised the sign and said, "One


    million."


    Everyone turned their heads to look at Casey, with mockery in their eyes.


    "Holy shit. Someone wants this shit stone. Is he out of his mind?"


    "Obviously this stone is just a piece of waste material. He actually paid a million. He’s really so stupid."


    "Haha, it’s so funny. This is the first time I have seen such a waste stone for so many years. It seems


    like he is ayman."


    Abraham also sneered, and said, "I think you are so self-righteous. Casey, you are still a little too


    young. You will know how ridiculous you are when the stone is cut open."
