Chapter 39 -39: Home-cooked Is the Best

Jack’s madness didn’t affect the final outcome.

When the Master Stonebreaker cut all the stones according to his request, Jack’s eyes were as red as a rabbit’s.

When Mason announced that Sean Knight had won the bet, Jack’s face turned ashen, and he left in anger.

The seductive woman immediately followed him, but Jack pushed her away.

Sean shouted from behind:

“Hey, remember to give us some space!”

Emily Taylor’s face bloomed into a smile, and she playfully punched Sean:

“You’re so mean! That’s kicking a man while he’s down!”

“Wrong, it’s called hitting a drowning dog!” Sean corrected seriously.

Monica Brown smiled at him, obviously in a good mood.

“Enough joking, go get the money you won!”

Sean patted Emily’s hand: “If you don’t act fast, the dealer may run away, and you’ll regret it!”

Emily screamed and immediately ran to find the dealer.

Monica Brown smiled at Sean and said:

“Thank you for standing up for us.”

She knew very well, if it hadn’t been for the two of them, Sean might not have made that bet.

It seemed that Sean was not the kind of person who likes to show off.

Mason Arnold walked over, laughing, and said to Sean:

“Congratulations, Mr. Knight! Your judgment is really accurate!”

With that, he handed over two stacks of money.

Sean accepted the money with a faint smile and said:

“Mr. Arnold, I plan to buy some more of your raw jade. Is that okay?”

Mason was stunned for a moment before laughing:

“Of course, there’s no problem! We welcome your business!”

Sean didn’t have a good impression of Mason, so he planned to take away all the raw jade with a higher value!

Mason put a fixed price on all the raw jade.

If a customer wanted to buy and no one else was bidding, they could buy it directly.

If a customer wanted to buy but found the price a bit high, they could negotiate with Mason privately.

If no one competed, Mason would reduce the price accordingly.

After all, the listed price itself had some profit margin.

His intention was to clear the stock, not to make a killing.

Now that Sean clearly wanted to buy more raw jade, Mason naturally welcomed him.

After all, the jade Sean had bought earlier, he took without bargaining.

Sean first put the original jade, the jadeite he had cut himself, and the two Iron Dragon Life stones from Jack into his car.

Inside the car, he stuck a piece of window jade on the Sky Eye, crazily absorbing the energy within it.

Soon, the piece of jade became useless.

Sean stopped his hand. Although the Sky Eye was still “hungry”, he knew that it wasn’t the best time to do this.

Returning to the courtyard, Sean picked up more raw jade.

He had won fifty thousand from Jack, plus twenty thousand in bets (ten thousand upfront), and he planned to spend at least half of it on jade.

The excitement caused by Sean and Jack’s bet earlier had consumed a lot of people’s enthusiasm, and many people whispered regretfully that they had missed their chance to participate.

Sean guessed it was probably the people who had bet on Jack to win.

Emily came back excitedly, holding three bundles of money, first handing one to Monica Brown:

“Here, Monica, it’s yours!”

Then she handed a bundle to Sean somewhat reluctantly:

“Here, it’s yours!”

Sean took it with a smile, feeling great about the money they won!

Emily held her own bundle of money, murmuring:

“Should I buy a bag, or clothes? Or maybe both?”

Sean ignored her and went to pick his own jade.

Soon, Emily struggled to bring a volleyball-sized piece of raw jade to Sean and nudged him:

“Help me take a look; how is this piece?”

Sean glanced at it. The stone had a small window revealing a light yellow jade. Inside, there was a baby fist-sized yellow jadeite that couldn’t quite reach the Chicken Oil Yellow but was still quite beautiful.

Earlier, Sean had seen this piece but didn’t want it since the profit was too small.

However, the price was only one thousand dollars, so Sean said:

“I think it’s pretty good; it should produce nice jadeite.”

“Okay, I’ll take it!”

Emily Taylor happily agreed and then told Sean Knight:

“Why don’t you help Monica pick one too?”

Sean turned his head and saw Monica Brown looking at the open-windowed jadeite. He walked over and said:

“I don’t think this one is that good.” He quietly reminded her after the person in front moved away, and pointing to another piece, he said: “I think this one is nice.”

Monica looked up at Sean and hesitated for a moment, but decided to follow his advice and check out the other piece of jadeite.

When Sean picked four more pieces of raw jadeite and returned to the car, Emily and Monica were already happily sitting in the car, comparing their jadeite pieces.

“Monica, your piece is Violet, mine is almost Chicken Oil Yellow. Both are quite rare. We’re really lucky today!”

Monica looked at Sean in the front and said:

“It’s all thanks to Sean’s good eye.”

In the end, she bought the piece Sean recommended.

Even Master Stonebreaker praised her for her choice when the jadeite was cut.

She made a huge profit from the jadeite, marked at a price of nine thousand eight hundred dollars and valued at forty thousand dollars.

As for the piece Emily chose, someone immediately offered twenty thousand dollars for the jadeite.

Emily hesitated for a moment but didn’t sell it.

Her first (almost) jadeite that she picked must be kept as a memento.

Although not as valuable as Monica’s piece, it held a different meaning!

Then, as expected, Sean drove both girls home.

On the way, Monica suddenly said:

“Sean, can you do us a favor and cook for us?”

Sean was startled but thought about the huge gains they made today, all thanks to Monica’s introduction. He grandly agreed:

“Let’s go and buy the ingredients first!”

Sean couldn’t help but guess that the house where the three of them arrived with the bags of groceries must belong to one of the two girls.

There was no sign of a landlord – it seemed casual and perhaps owned by a little rich woman!

Entering the kitchen, the two girls wanted to help. But seeing the poorly peeled green onions and inadequately peeled potatoes, Sean simply said:

“You two go and rest. I’ll take care of it.”

Feeling slightly embarrassed, the two girls left the kitchen.

With Sean’s skillful maneuvers, a Big Plate Chicken, four cold dishes, and Belt Noodles appeared on the dining table an hour later.

Both girls had smelled the enticing aroma; if not for their pride and fear of being looked down upon by Sean, they would have probably pushed the kitchen door open to see what was going on.

Sean’s face was full of pride:

“Go ahead and taste it. See if it’s good.”

Although Monica could resist, Emily couldn’t help herself and picked up a piece of potato and put it into her mouth:

“Wow, it’s delicious… and hot… but so good!”

The taste was amazing!

And it was indeed very hot!

But it tasted so good, she couldn’t spit it out!

Emily’s eyes even teared up!

How long had it been since she tasted such authentic flavors?

She couldn’t remember!

At that moment, Emily vowed to learn to cook herself.

Monica’s expression was slightly stronger than Emily’s.

Half an hour later, the plates on the dining table were empty.

Even the four cold dishes for seasoning were eaten cleanly!

The three people, all full and satisfied, didn’t want to move.

Mostly eaten by Sean – ever since getting the Sky Eye, his appetite had increased significantly, and he loved meat!

Otherwise, both girls, no matter how hungry, could not finish a whole Big Plate Chicken – that was enough for four people in their hometown!

Emily slouched in her chair without concerns for her appearance, rubbing her belly, and said:

“You know the old saying – full belly means no homesickness. Well, after this wonderful home-cooked meal, I don’t feel that homesick anymore.”

Monica didn’t say anything, just smiled and looked at her, then looked at Sean.

Sean’s mobile phone rang.

When Sean checked, it turned out, Robert had sent a photo.

Did they get everything resolved?
