Chapter 160 A Billion–Dollar Bonus

Andrew figured it was only a matter of borrowing for one evening. As soon as he

won against the country boy, the ten billion he borrowed would instantly double to twenty billion.

This could be the best deal he’d ever make–an opportunity he couldn’t pass up.

Having made his decision, Andrew turned to Isaac and asked, “Can you win against this country boy?”

“Of course!”

“Good! If you win against him tonight, I’ll give you a bonus of one billion! As for Great

Stephens, who recommended you, I’ll reward him with fifty million!”

Andrew was willing to be quite generous to win people over.

The prospect of earning a billion had Isaac practically floating with joy. “You can

count on me, Andrew. I will not let you down; I’ll surely win this bet against that

country boy!”

“Excellent! I hope you won’t disappoint me.

Andrew transferred ten billion from the company account into his personal account

and then into the joint account that Scarlett had set up.

Once the full twenty billion was confirmed in the account, Isabella announced to

both men, “The stakes are set. Please begin your performance. The rules are clear:

each of you only has ten million in available funds, and whoever ends up with the jade stones of higher value wins.”

Daniel, looking at Isaac with a cheery demeanor, said, “Since you’re the king of Jade

Gambling, I trust you must have some special abilities. Therefore, you should start

first!”

Isaac was taken aback, Having the same amount of capital, whoever picked first would have the advantage because the other could only choose from what was left.

Was this country bumpkin really that clueless, allowing Isaac to pick first? In a

Kenમ

When we gamblers had the same amount of ten million, naturally, whoever picked fet would have the advantage, increasing their odds of winning.

“You want me to pick first? Do you actually expect me to be courteous? Fine, I’ll

choose first!

Isaac dove into the pile of stones, touching each with the hand graced by the Monkey Ring After a while, he made his decision.

“This one!”

“And this one!”

“Plus this one!”

He picked out three stones in total, which came to a combined price of 9.98 million, leaving him with 20 thousand to spare. He believed these three stones represented the highest value one could acquire with ten million.

He was confident there was one stone of the highest quality in the pile, which contained jade worth at least ten billion. But the price tag on that stone was a staggering 8.8 billion!

isaac choosing three stones at once was something Jessica could hardly cope with. Feeling her man was being taken advantage of, she immediately stood up and raised

an objection.

“Isaac, since this is a gamble, each should choose one stone at a time. You’ve selected three all at once, virtually claiming all the valuable jade within the ten–million range. How can anyone else choose?‘

“He’s the country boy who let me pick first, and he didn’t say I could only select one

stone! I’ve chosen these three, and if that country boy wants to concede defeat, he

can do so now. That way, he could at least save himself ten million!

After all, he doesn’t know a thing about Jade Gambling. Even if he doesn’t give up. I

doubt he’ll be able to select anything of value.”

“Daniel, why did you pick the three cheapest ones? Your three stones together are worth just three million. Are you planning to spend the remaining seven million on

other stones?”

“Why would I want other stones? I only need these three, worth a total of three

million, to defeat Isaac.”

Daniel looked at Isaac and said with a chuckle, “Out of respect for your seniority, I’ll

give you another chance. If these three stones are not more valuable than the ones I

chose, you can pick another one, no matter the cost.”

During the stone selection, Isaac had glanced several times at the stone priced at 8.8 billion, and Daniel had noticed that stone. He knew very well there was nothing in

that 8.8–billion–worth stone. If he could get Isaac to persuade Andrew to buy that

stone, he wouldn’t mind at all!

Daniel was not naively kind. Since Andrew wanted to gamble with him, Daniel intended to teach Andrew a harsh lesson. He wanted to make it clear that Andrew

had messed with the wrong person.

Caught off guard by Daniel’s offer, Isaac was stunned for a moment. However, he quickly figured it out.

“Country boy, you realize you’ll lose to me, so you’re trying to set a trap? I’ll tell you

this: I won’t fall for it!”

Andrew, failing to grasp the situation, curiously asked Isaac, “What’s this country boy

up to?”

“This country boy is quite cunning! He suddenly made this offer, almost making me fall into his trap!” Isaac exclaimed.
