I lent my brother 500 yuan, and he offered his wife as collateral.

Chapter 73

……

The night breeze was slightly cool.

Gu Shaocong stood in the middle of the iron gate.

His Armani suit was now just tattered rags, his face was covered in blood, only his eyes shone with a frightening intensity.

It's like the last burst of light before death, or the madness of a drowning person seeing the last piece of driftwood.

"Don't leave!"

Gu Shao Cong, panting heavily, pointed at the dirty stone in Qin Feng's hand:

"I want that rock!"

Qin Feng stopped and shielded Su Qingxue behind him.

He looked down at the red-skinned rough stone in his hand, which was still stained with oil.

"Young Master Gu, have you lost your mind? This is just a stepping stone the Su family used to weigh down their rags. What, Young Master Gu, you actually value this kind of junk now?"

"Stop talking nonsense!"

Gu Shao Cong roared, his voice cracking from the force of his shout: "Who are you, Qin Feng? You never leave empty-handed! How could something you've set your sights on be junk? That look in your eyes just now... that look was off! There's definitely something in this stone! Absolutely something!"

intuition.

It was purely the instinct of a dying beast.

Manager Wang was so frustrated he wanted to kill someone when he saw Gu Shao Cong going crazy again. He immediately strode over with a dark face.

"Gu Shao Cong! Haven't you caused enough trouble?"

Manager Wang waved his hand, and the bodyguards behind him immediately surrounded him: "We've refunded half your money. You'd better accept this. The Su family's patience has its limits. Don't force me to cripple your other hand too!"

"Am I breaking the law by buying things?!"

Gu Shao Cong was not afraid at all; in his current state, even ghosts would be afraid of him.

He stared intently at the stone, veins bulging on his neck: "This is a public auction! Anyone can buy it if they have the money! I have money, I'm qualified to bid!"

Manager Wang laughed in exasperation.

He pointed at Qin Feng: "This stone has already been sold. Ten thousand yuan, cash on delivery. Everyone heard the WeChat notification. If you want it now, it's too late!"

In order to get rid of this plague, Manager Wang must make this deal a done deal.

Once Qin Feng leaves, Gu Shao Cong will have no reason to cause trouble anymore.

"Did you hear that?" Qin Feng looked at Gu Shao Cong. "The Su family's rule is, once it's in your pocket, it's safe. This stone now belongs to the Qin family."

"I want to buy it!! Mr. Qin, sell it to me!"

Gu Shao Cong suddenly pulled out a stack of asset agreements from his pocket; it represented the remaining half of his life, worth 1.25 billion.

He held the agreement above his head as if it were a bomb.

"I'll offer fifty million!!"

Gu Shao Cong roared, making the large iron gate vibrate.

The entire room fell silent.

The wealthy people who were about to leave paused and turned around one by one.

Fifty million?

Buy a dirty stone to weigh down a rag?

"He's gone mad... completely mad," the coal mine owner muttered to himself. "Has Gu Shao Cong suffered too much trauma and damaged his brain?"

Su Qingxue hid behind Qin Feng, her small hands tightly gripping the hem of his clothes, her eyes wide open.

You bought it for 10,000 yuan and can resell it for 50 million?

This world is too crazy for her to understand.

Qin Feng remained expressionless.

He didn't even lift his eyelids, just played with the stone and uttered two words indifferently.

"Not for sale."

"Eighty million!" Gu Shao Cong raised the price without any hesitation.

"Not for sale."

"One hundred million!!"

Gu Shao Cong took a step forward, his bloodshot eyes fixed on Qin Feng: "One hundred million! Qin Feng, don't be too greedy! You've made a fortune betting ten thousand on one hundred million! Give me the stone, and we're even!"

boom!

The crowd was in an uproar.

One hundred million!

This isn't buying stones, this is burning money to play!

If Gu Shao Cong is crazy, then Qin Feng's refusal is even more incomprehensible.

A 10,000 bet on a 100 million bet—that's an incredible profit margin, even more so than robbing a bank! And he actually refused?

unless……

All eyes were focused on that inconspicuous stone.

At this moment, the unremarkable, oil-stained stone suddenly became mysterious and unpredictable in everyone's eyes.

Could this really be some kind of priceless treasure?

Could this also be a piece of imperial green jade that has been "covered in dust"?

The calmer Qin Feng remained, the more uneasy everyone became.

After all, Qin Feng's record tonight is 100%.

He is a walking, human-shaped X-ray machine.

"Qin Feng..."

Seeing Qin Feng remain silent, Gu Shao Cong grew even more anxious, his obsession with getting his hands on the money growing wildly. "One hundred and twenty million! Give me an answer!"

Qin Feng smiled.

He extended a finger and gently shook it.

"Young Master Gu, some things aren't about money. I like this stone and want to take it back as a stream stone; I'm not selling it."

After saying that, Qin Feng pulled Su Qingxue up and made a move to leave.

"Brother Feng..."

Su Qingxue whispered a name, her heart aching and trembling.

That's 100 million! That's enough to buy so many steamed buns... no, enough to buy a whole bread factory!

"stop!"

This time, it wasn't Gu Shaocong who shouted it out.

It was Manager Wang, who had been standing to the side with an ever-changing expression.

Manager Wang stood in front of Qin Feng.

He squinted, his throat feeling a little dry.

Gu Shao Cong's crazy bidding had shattered his reason.

He recalled every move Qin Feng made that night.

Every time, it's a huge surge.

Every time, it's the same nonchalant attitude.

What if... what if this stone, which they've been throwing away as trash for years, is actually top-grade jade?

Even if there's only a one in ten chance!

Tonight, the "Dragon-Suppressing Stone" collapsed by 2.5 billion. Although the Gu family will foot the bill for this hole, cash flow is still a major problem.

If we let this real treasure slip away and Qin Feng gets his hands on it...

The second young lady would chop him up and feed him to the dogs.

Greed, fear, and that gambler's lucky-hunting mentality took over Manager Wang's mind at that moment.

"Mr. Qin."

Manager Wang took a deep breath and forced a smile that looked more like a grimace:

"Could I take another look at this stone?"

"What does Manager Wang mean by this?" Qin Feng's eyes turned cold. "You just said you'd take the ten thousand yuan, no take-backs. What, is the Su family going to break the rules?"

"No, no, no, the rules can't be broken."

Manager Wang wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, his eyes darting around: "But this stone belongs to the Su family after all; I was mistaken earlier. Now that Young Master Gu has offered such a high price... I'd like to join in the fun."

He didn't want to admit that he regretted it.

But he had to cut the stone off.

"I'll bid too." Manager Wang gritted his teeth, holding up two fingers. "Two hundred million! The Su family will offer two hundred million to buy back this stone!"

Whoosh—!

This time, even Qian Wanda crushed the walnuts in his hand.

What happens when a seller sells something and then immediately buys it back at 20,000 times the original price?

This is unprecedented and will never be repeated!

"Manager Wang, you..." Qin Feng looked disgusted. "Has your Su family no shame?"

"What's face worth?" Manager Wang was desperate. He stared at the stone, his eyes burning with fervor. "As long as it can earn money for Miss Er, I don't care about my reputation! Two hundred million! Will you sell?!"

As long as there's something inside this stone, even if it's only worth 300 million, he can still make a great achievement by selling it.

"Hold!"

Gu Shaocong was furious.

He felt like he had been tricked, or like a vicious dog whose food had been stolen.

"Hey, you from the Su family, didn't you just say you were selling? Now you're trying to take it from me?!"

Gu Shao Cong shoved aside the bodyguard blocking his way and roared at Qin Feng, "Two hundred and fifty million! Qin Feng, sell it to me! Don't sell it to these untrustworthy scoundrels!"

The situation spiraled out of control in an instant.

What was originally a buy-and-sell transaction turned into a bidding war between two madmen.

Qin Feng, who held the right to the stone, was like a master holding a bone, watching two dogs bite each other at his feet.

"Two hundred and eighty million!" Manager Wang's eyes reddened, and he immediately raised the price.

He was genuinely scared.

The more Qin Feng refused to let go, the more he felt that there was a priceless treasure inside the stone.

"Three hundred million!!" Gu Shao Cong slammed the agreement in his hand, "I have assets! I have collateral! Three hundred million!"

"Three hundred and twenty million!" Manager Wang roared.

"Three hundred and fifty million!!"

The numbers collided in the air, and each addition of hundreds of millions felt like a heavy hammer blow to the hearts of the onlookers.

That stone is still the same stone.

Dirty, ugly, covered in grime.

But at this moment, it seemed to have transformed into a golden elixir in Laozi's alchemy furnace.

Qin Feng stood in the eye of the storm, his expression remaining calm.

However, he tightened his grip on Su Qingxue's hand slightly.

A piece of red jade worth 60 million was sold for 350 million.

This is the human heart.

This is greed.

Just then.

Gu Shao Cong let out a piercing scream.

"Four hundred million!!!"
