Chapter 174: Chapter 174

These two beams of light immediately attracted the attention of everyone present.

“Haylan Jaber? Who is this? Why haven’t I heard of him?”

“Look at how he’s dressed. He doesn’t even have any tools on him. He’s obviously a layman. What right does he have to compete with Mr. Harrod?”

“I think this must be another special actor hired by the Southern Heavenly Gate Market.”

“Mr. Harrod is a leading figure in our gem appraisal industry. Ordinary people at least have to pay tens of thousands of dollars to hire him to appraise treasures. Why would he gamble on stones with a young man? Isn’t this bullying the young?”

Everyone looked at Haylan in confusion and discussed it.

Anyone in the gem industry didn’t know Haylan. They subconsciously thought that Haylan was a layman and a special actor pushed out by the Southern Heavenly Gate Market Jerry was overjoyed when he saw everyone discussing this. Jerry knew that he had diverted the crowd’s attention and saved the reputation of the Southern Heavenly Gate Raw Stone Market.

Hence, Jerry said loudly. “Everyone, this is a show and also a real stone gambling battle!

“Mr. Harrod said that if he loses, he will kneel and call Mr. Jaber Grandpa. He will even compensate Mr. Jaber two million dollars.

“And if Mr. Harrod wins, Haylan will have to kneel and call Mr. Harrod Grandpa and lick Mr. Harrod’s toes.”

After a pause, Jerry looked at Frode and said, “Mr. Harrod, am I right?”

Frode’s expression darkened.

Jerry said so, clearly not giving Frode a chance to refuse.

Frode was very displeased with such an action.

However, considering Jerry’s background and the power behind him, Frode did not dare to offend him. Frode could only say. “Yes!

“This time, I’ll give the young man a chance to challenge me. At the same time, I’ll also show everyone how to judge if a stone can produce gems”

What was done was done. There was no point in resisting. Or Frode would offend Jerry. It was better to go with the flow and cooperate with Jerry’s performance to gain a good reputation and do Jerry a favor.

In any case, Frode did not think that he would lose.

Jerry was even more delighted. He laughed and said, “Everyone, this time’s stone gambling competition will definitely be fierce. Open your eyes and admire Mr. Harrod’s appraisal skills!

“Hurry up and take out your phones to film. This is a good opportunity to learn from a treasure appraisal master. Learning it will be a gain!”

Hearing Jerry’s words, everyone present was excited. They immediately took out their phones obediently and aimed at Frode.

Frode was a famous treasure appraisal master in the gem industry. Frode rarely took action, and no one knew how he appraised treasures.

Today, Frode was going to make a move in public. Of course, these people doing gem business would not miss such an excellent learning opportunity.

After Jerry took control of the situation, he heaved a sigh of relief and turned to look at Haylan, “Mr.

Jaber, can we start now?”

Haylan stood in the light beam, his eyes a little gloomy.

Haylan could agree to the stone gambling, but Jerry suddenly mentioned Haylan without Haylan’s permission, which made Haylan very unhappy.

Facing Jerry’s asking, Haylan did not show a good attitude and said coldly, “No!”

Simon, who was standing at the side, was suddenly shocked when he heard this.

Haylan’s words were completely against Jerry. If things went wrong, Jerry would become Haylan’s new enemy.

Jerry’s expression changed and a trace of anger surged in his heart. However, Jerry remained calm on the surface and armiled. “Why?”

“Because the stones here are all trash. They’re not worth my time!” Haylan said coldly.

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present erupted.

“Who is Haylan? Isn’t he too bold? How dare he say such words? Is he courting death?”

“As everyone knows, the Southern Heavenly Gate Raw Stone Market is the biggest market in Lightdom City. There are countless treasures here, but the young man is calling all the emerald pendants here trash. He’s trying to offend the Southern Heavenly Gate Market to the core.”

“What an ignorant young man!”

This young man has ulterior motives for belittling the gems in our Southern Heavenly Gate Market!”

“Who the fuck do you think you are to call our emerald pendants trash?”

Almost everyone looked at Haylan with anger in their eyes.

Especially the stall owners here, they gritted their teeth and wished they could tear Haylan into pieces.

Haylan said that the emerald pendants here were trash, which was equivalem to belittling them.

Looking at the cold and angry gazes of these people, Simon, who was standing beside Haylan, felt a chill run down his spine and could not help but shiver, Simon looked at 11aylan’s back with mixed feelings.

At this moment, Simon really did not know how to describe Haylan.

Just now, Simon thought that Haylan was very impressive. But now, Haylan had offended everyone present in the blink of an eye and angered them.

This kind of behavior was too stupid.

*Haylan, you’re quite good at pretending. Do you really think you’re a master just because you’re lucky enough to guess the gem in one stone?”

Maxwell steered and said in a deep voice, “Don’t think too highly of yourself. Otherwise, it will be very painful if you fall!” Haylan glanced at Maxwell. “Idiot! Does this have anything to do with you?”

“Haylan, do you want to die?”

Maxwell was scolded by Haylan again. Immediately, Maxwell was like a cat whose tail had been stepped on. He could not restrain his anger and stared coldly at Haylan.

Just as Maxwell was about to teach Haylan a lesson, Jerry’s cold voice was heard. “Sir, please don’t disturb the stone gambling competition between Mr Jaber and Mr. Harrod!

“Otherwise, don’t blame me for being rude to you.”

Maxwell’s eyes turned cold as he looked at Jerry.

Jerry also looked over.

Their eyes were extremely sharp, creating a series of sparks in the air.

In the end, Maxwell weighed the pros and cons and did not continue to look at Jerry. Instead, he walked to the side. A wise man did not fight when the odds were against him.

Jerry was very strong. If they really fought, Maxwell would not be able to gain anything in a short period of time. This was Jerry’s territory, and Jerry could call his companions over at any time.

If they really fought, Maxwell would be at a disadvantage.

Besides, before Maxwell came here, he knew that the Southern Heavenly Gate Raw Stone Market had a complicated background. Even Maxwell’s father was afraid of the force behind Jerry.

This was also one of the reasons why Maxwell did not dare to go against Jerry.

Maxwell did not dare to offend Jerry, but he stared at Haylan with hatred in his eyes. “Haylan, no classmate has ever dared to offend me. You will regret your actions!”

“Idiot!” Haylan said coldly.

Maxwell raised his eyebrows, and his eyes became even colder and angrier.

However, Maxwell held it in and said coldly. “You won’t be smug for long Maxwell decided that after Haylan left this place, he would immediately teach Haylan a lesson at the door.

At this moment, Jerry looked at Haylan again, and his eyes turned cold. “Mr. Jaber, you’re saying that the emerald pendants here are all trash?”

“That’s right. There’s nothing good here,” said Haylan
