62: Chapter 62: What Do You Say?
After receiving the money transferred by Maisy Spencer, Peter Brown didn’t say anything else because she indeed made a profit this time.
“I’ll take all the stones in your car for ten million!”
Suddenly, a boss spoke loudly to Peter Brown.
His words immediately stirred up a wave of excitement.
“Fifteen million, I want them all!” The man who had initially bought a stone from Peter Brown looked eagerly at the rough stones in his truck.
“Thirty million, give them to me!”
Another boss shouted a higher bid.
It was evident that they were all ignited by Peter’s luck; the bidding became higher and higher.
Sophia Gibson looked at the stones in surprise; there were more than twenty of them, with varying sizes.
Roughly calculating, she estimated that Peter had spent around three million to buy these stones.
Listening to everyone bidding higher and higher, Sophia was puzzled.
She wondered why these items worth only a few million could sell for tens of millions; it was too incredible.
This time, Maisy didn’t dare to bid, but her eyes were still full of eagerness looking at the pile of stones.
In the world of gemstone gambling, there was a superstitious belief – they were betting on luck.
The fact that Peter had had such good fortune with two stones could mean even better fortune was coming.
If another stone, like the one that just sold, appeared in this pile, it would be a sure win.
Those female college students who didn’t care much about Peter Brown initially couldn’t help but get excited.
They initially thought Sophia’s closeness to Peter was unwise, ignoring wealthy Jalen Carter.
However, today’s events took them by surprise, witnessing how a farmer turned the tables.
One female student looked at Peter Brown with shining eyes.
No one had expected Peter to afford and purchase rough stones for millions, let alone gamble and win so much.
Everyone had witnessed 250,000,000 transferred into Peter Brown’s bank account, and now people were bidding more than 50 million to buy his pile of broken stones!
What on earth was going on?
No one could figure out what had happened, but one thing was apparent: from now on, this farmer had become rich.
Whoever could marry him would instantly become the wife of a billionaire.
Those female college students had a clear understanding of the situation, and for the first time, they looked at Sophia Gibson with deep envy, thinking about why they didn’t see Peter’s wealth earlier.
Peter Brown didn’t know what people were thinking.
Listening to their bids, he shook his head secretly.
The stones he had chosen were not ordinary.
At least two of these stones were worth more than the 200 million sold just now.
Together with the other stones, the total value could reach 1 billion after processing.
Moreover, Peter Brown didn’t come here to make money.
At this time, he was in dire need of jade for talisman making.
Once these stones were processed, the jade inside would be the best talisman jade tablet.
“Peter, the offer has reached 60 million!”
A female college student could not help but shout to Peter Brown.
Looking at these enthusiastic people, Peter Brown smiled and said, “These stones are for my personal enjoyment.
I’m not selling them!”
Everyone was once again stunned by Peter Brown’s decision.
It was so much money, but he refused to sell.
At this point, a foreign old man shouted out loud, “One billion!
Yes, one billion, young man.
As long as you agree, I’ll transfer the money to you immediately.”
Everyone was once again shocked; no one imagined Peter Brown’s pile of broken stones would be bid up to a billion.
The boss of the gemstone gambling venue was also standing nearby.
Hearing the bidding, his eyelids twitched, and the corners of his mouth curved.
A deep sense of regret surged in his heart.
I’ll keep them for myself.
I don’t need money now.” Peter Brown smiled and repeated.
Everyone was in an uproar again.
This young man had such a unique personality!
The foreign old man shook his head, spreading his hands.
At this moment, Peter noticed that Jalen Carter was trying to slip away.
He turned and shouted at him, “Jalen, what do you have to say?”
Jalen knew he had messed up today and wanted to leave quietly, but Peter’s sudden shout stopped him.
He turned around with an embarrassed smile on his face and said, “Peter, it was just a joke, that’s all.”
So many people witnessed it.
Don’t let everyone despise you!”
Since the other party kept causing trouble, Peter Brown had no intention of letting him go.
“I’m not gambling with you anymore.
What can you do to me?” Jalen Carter suddenly became aggressive, staring straight at Peter Brown.
The male students in Jalen’s class all looked at him, and they didn’t expect him to lose face and become lazy.
Moreover, it was just a verbal bet; there was no compulsion.
Seeing everyone’s attention on him, Peter Brown smiled and said, “I knew you would do this, don’t worry, I didn’t have my sights on that one billion anyway.
However, if you get a headache or fever when you get home, have your parents bring five billion.”
After finishing speaking, Peter Brown patted Jalen Carter’s shoulder, seemingly casual.
With a smirk, Jalen Carter said, “Peter Brown, this is not over!”
After saying this, he left.
He also knew that his behavior today was very humiliating, but losing face was better than losing the money.
With all that money, he could have fun with countless women.
Seeing Jalen Carter leaving , everyone looked to Peter Brown.
A female college student said, “Peter, you just let him leave?
More than two billion!”
“Yes, Peter, why did you let him go?”
Everyone started to feel indignant on behalf of Peter Brown.
Peter Brown smiled and said, “It’s okay; he’ll have to pay me five billion later.”
A male classmate said, “He was just being lazy.
It was just a verbal bet; how can you force him to pay?”
Everyone heard this and could only sigh.
They knew that a farmer could not compete with the son of a listed company’s CEO.
He must have been helpless.
Peter Brown saw everyone’s expressions and smiled.
Although it seemed casual when he patted Jalen’s shoulder, it was not an ordinary move.
Though Jalen seemed fine now, something would happen to him once he got home, and by then, five billion would be less than enough.
