Chapter 150 Andrew’s Warning
“So, you brought Isaac here? Do you expect him to work under me? To follow my commands?” Andrew inquired.
“Isaac is the king of Jade Gambling, and when it comes to appraising jade, if he claims he’s second, then no one in the USA dares to claim first.”
“Is Isaac really that impressive?” Andrew asked again. After learning his lesson from Henry, Andrew felt he needed to be cautious. If he was betrayed twice in one evening, he doubted he could endure the embarrassment.
“Of course! Don’t worry, Andrew. I’ve already talked to Isaac, and he will definitely execute your commands without question. While Isaac is knowledgeable about the jade industry and his Jade Realm is the top jade store in DC, his wealth pales in comparison to your family. Isaac wants to board The Evans‘ ship, but he needs to rely on your strength, Andrew, and by extension, ArmCorp’s platform.”
Approaching Isaac, Andrew asked, “Isaac, do you wish to join us?”
“Yes, Andrew!”
“If you want to join us, you gotta put some real shit on the table because I have no use for worthless people. If you’re useless, I suggest you disappear from my sight.”
Andrew needed to issue a stern warning to Isaac. He intended for Isaac to work for him and wanted to ensure absolute obedience.
“I’m not useless, Andrew!”
“That’s not up to you,” Andrew said, pointing toward Daniel. “You claim to be the king of Jade Gambling? Then show me by competing against this country boy. I’ll give you ten million, and this country boy also has ten million. Whoever’s stone contains more valuable jade after spending the ten million will be recognized as worthy, and join us!”
Isaac glanced at Daniel and said, “Andrew, are you insulting me? I’ve not heard of this country boy, and I don’t recall his name on any of the special lists of major Jade Gambling venues. You want this nobody to compete with me in Jade Gambling; do you think so little of me?”
Chapter 150 Andrew’s Warning
2/2
“Do you know Henry?”
“Are you referring to Henry, Florida’s top appraiser?”
“Yes, him! He just played against this country boy and lost, then ran off. So, I believe
this country boy is a worthy opponent for you!”
“Andrew, you’re not joking? Henry lost to this country boy?” Isaac first looked at Daniel incredulously, then turned back to Andrew. “However, I’ve only heard of Henry’s reputation and have never met him personally, so I’m unsure if he’s as strong as the rumors say. I don’t know how or why he lost, but if he was defeated by a country boy, I suspect his abilities don’t match his fame.”
“So you’re confident you can beat this country boy?”
“I only need half an eye to beat him.”
“Good! I hope you don’t disappoint me!”
After briefing Isaac, Andrew turned to Daniel. “Country boy, do you dare to play? Let’s forget our previous game and start afresh. You and him, starting with ten million each. After you spend it, whoever picks the most valuable stones wins.
As for the bet, let’s start small–let’s call it ten billion! Whoever loses must pay ten
billion to the winner!”
