Only children in Siheyuan make choices. I want them all.

"Mr. Lawrence! You are the strongest person I have ever seen. I'm going to start exerting my real strength!" As soon as Zhang Jianjun finished speaking, a huge force suddenly came from his hands.

Lawrence was about to say something when he felt a sharp pain and his palm was pinched with a "crack" sound. Cold sweat broke out on his face.

He originally thought that Zhang Jianjun was just a Chinese with a little strength, but now it seems that this man is not only incredibly strong, but also very stamina. He secretly thanked himself for not underestimating Zhang Jianjun, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.

"Mr. Zhang Jianjun, I give in! Please let go. I wonder how much strength you used?" Lawrence's facial features were distorted in pain, and he had to beg Zhang Jianjun to let go.

"Oh? Mr. Lawrence can't do it anymore? I have only used half of my strength. I wonder if you are convinced or not?" Zhang Jianjun said as he added a little more strength to his hands.

"I... I give up! I beg you... please let go! My hand is about to break." Lawrence was in so much pain that he broke out in a cold sweat and his speech became stuttering, as if he was in great pain.

"Okay! I'm glad you give in." Zhang Jianjun smiled and let go of his hand.

Mr. Li saw that his master was being bullied by Zhang Jianjun, and this was the perfect time for him to show his loyalty. "Zhang Jianjun, you are going too far! What's so great about being strong? You will be in trouble when we gamble on the stones later!"

Zhang Jianjun rolled his eyes and sneered, "Li, you are indeed a good dog! Your master hasn't said anything yet, and you come up and bark wildly. Not bad! Not bad!"

Lawrence turned his head and stared at Mr. Li, and said coldly: "Shut up! Don't be rude to Mr. Zhang Jianjun, you just need to do your job well."

Mr. Li was reprimanded and lowered his head helplessly: "Yes! Sir Lawrence."

After Lawrence finished scolding his men, he smiled and looked at Zhang Jianjun. "Mr. Zhang Jianjun, I wonder if you can be friends with me? I in the West always respect the strong."

Zhang Jianjun didn't hesitate and nodded in agreement! After all, having one more friend is much better than having one more enemy, especially when such a friend is powerful.

"Okay! I'll make you my friend! But today we are still competitors. When we gamble on the stones later, I won't show any mercy."

Lawrence smiled and patted Zhang Jianjun on the shoulder. "That's exactly what I want! I hope Mr. Zhang Jianjun will not show mercy! Come to my box and have a seat! I brought a few bottles of good wine from Europe for you to try."

Zhang Jianjun came here with Lou Bancheng today. He can’t ignore Lou Bancheng just because of Lawrence. That would be too unkind!

"Mr. Lawrence, you are too polite. I am here with my uncle today. Why don't we wait until the auction is over and get drunk together?"

Lawrence didn't force it, and nodded with a smile. "Okay! Then we'll have a good chat after the auction is over."

"Okay!" Zhang Jianjun nodded, and walked to the raw stone area with Lou Bancheng and began to investigate. Before long, all the jade raw stones were checked by Zhang Jianjun with his X-ray eyes.

"Well! I have to say, there is still a very good piece of stone in this raw stone auction, from which can be mined the top-grade imperial purple." Zhang Jianjun sighed in his heart.

"How about building an army? Are you sure? Although that Li guy is not a good person, he is very good at gambling on stones." Lou Bancheng asked hurriedly.

Zhang Jianjun thought, no matter how good Li is at gambling on stones, can he be as good as my eyesight? I have a cheat.

"Don't worry, Uncle Lou. I know all about these raw stones. Just wait for the sacks to fill with money!" Zhang Jianjun lowered his voice and spoke to Lou Bancheng with a smile.

"That's good! I will definitely not treat you unfairly then. No matter how much money we make, we'll split it 50-50!" Seeing Zhang Jianjun's confident expression, Lou Bancheng immediately seemed to be overjoyed.

Zhang Jianjun is not very interested in money now. After all, his current savings are enough for him to squander for several lifetimes!

Soon it was three o'clock and the auctioneer came over with a microphone and a smile.

"Dear ladies and gentlemen, our New Moon Hotel's rough diamond auction has officially begun. I'm sure you have already checked out these rough stones, so I won't introduce them one by one!"

"In order not to waste everyone's time, we are now going to auction our number one item! It is from the Pa-gan Dongshan material in Myanmar. Although it is a new pit material, after being appraised by our experts, it is very likely to produce a large piece of jadeite. The starting price is 600 yuan, and each increase in price must not be less than 10 yuan. The auction will officially begin now!"

Although the auctioneer was trying very hard to recommend lot No. 1 at this time, since this material was from a new mine, the risk of gambling on it was much greater than that of material from an old mine, so no one present was interested in this material.

Seeing that no one had bid for a long time, someone immediately spoke up impatiently: "We all came here for the old pit stones. You brought new pit stones. Isn't this cheating us? And the starting price is so high! Are you taking us for a ride?"

A single stone caused a thousand waves, and everyone started to speak up: "That's right! Let's start bidding on the next stone! Don't waste everyone's time."

The auctioneer was a little embarrassed when he saw that everyone present had no interest in lot number one! Just when he was about to announce that the first stone had failed to be sold, Zhang Jianjun suddenly raised his sign. "I'll offer 500!"

As soon as Zhang Jianjun finished speaking, everyone present looked at him with contempt. Seeing this, Mr. Li opened his foul mouth and started to mock him.

"I say, you little brat, do you know anything about gambling on jade? It's obvious that this new mine material won't produce jade, but you actually paid a huge price for it. You are such a complete idiot."

Lou Bancheng was also a little worried, so he leaned over to Zhang Jianjun's ear and whispered, "Jianjun! Even an amateur like me can tell that this material is just worthless broken stone. Are you sure you didn't make a mistake?"

This remark directly annoyed Zhang Jianjun. He was kind enough to help Lou Bancheng, but this man actually doubted him again and again, which made Zhang Jianjun very unhappy.

"Uncle Lou, if you don't believe me, I can just buy it myself. You can handle the bet with Lawrence yourself!"

Lou Bancheng also knew that he had said something wrong, and he quickly spoke to comfort him: "My dear nephew Jianjun, I said something wrong! I will shut up immediately, and I will not disturb you no matter what you shoot in the future."

After hearing this, Zhang Jianjun's expression softened a bit, but who would have thought that the man surnamed Li was still relentless and continued to mock him.
