Chapter 80: Stone Gambling

Ordinary people would be overjoyed to know that they got a free bill. At this moment, Shen Nanyi was extremely frustrated.

She was finally about to complete the task, but then this happened!

"Can we just pay instead of getting the free bill?" Trying hard to calm herself down, Shen Nanyi wanted to reason with the shop assistant. "The rent here is not cheap. We feel bad about getting a free bill. And this gentleman is not short of money. He'll be very sad if you don't take the money."

Shen Nanyi spoke so sincerely that even the manager was deeply touched. Look, what nice customers they were!

"We're really glad that you think so, but the event is the event. We must keep our word. But we still appreciate your understanding very much." The manager almost gritted her teeth as she refused. She felt like her heart was bleeding.

Shen Ye thought he had seen a lot in the world, but it was the first time he had seen customers chasing to pay while the boss desperately refused. Was this how business was done nowadays?

After several attempts at communication, Shen Nanyi still couldn't convince them, so she had to give up and think of another way.

When they stepped out of the tea - shop, Shen Nanyi couldn't help but complain. "The boss really doesn't know how to do business. He'll go bankrupt sooner or later if he keeps doing this. He doesn't even want the money that's right in front of him."

She pouted as she spoke. She was really annoyed.

Ji Beichuan, who was following behind, had a rather subtle expression on his face. Was he being disliked?

There were only ten minutes left. Shen Nanyi was really anxious. She looked around and saw only a stone - selling shop. The store had no signboard, but its decoration was simple and elegant. Immediately, Shen Nanyi thought of stone gambling and walked straight in.

"Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen. Take your time and look around. Call me if you need anything." The shopkeeper was a woman in her thirties wearing a cheongsam. She was full of charm, and every move of hers exuded indescribable grace.

After saying that, the shopkeeper didn't follow Shen Nanyi and the others. Instead, she sat in her place, smiling.

There were some stones scattered around the shop. Some showed a bit of jade inside, while others revealed nothing. There weren't many people coming and going, but each of them looked solemn.

Stone gambling was no different from gambling, and it was even more extreme. A single stone could make you instantly rich, or it could make you go bankrupt and fall into the abyss in an instant.

How many people wanted to turn their fortunes around through stone gambling but ended up in the abyss? And how many people, after turning their fortunes around, wanted to go further but lost everything?

The difficulty of stone gambling was one thing. More importantly, many people simply couldn't control themselves. Desire was always the hardest thing to satisfy.

In her previous life, Shen Nanyi had never been exposed to stone gambling and knew nothing about this business. To her, all the stones looked the same, except that some were bigger and some were smaller.

The marked prices were clearly written beside the rough stones. After walking around for a while, Shen Nanyi quickly found several stones priced at one million yuan.

For over a million yuan, you might only be able to buy a palm - sized stone. If there was nothing inside, it would be a complete loss.

Good eyesight and sufficient funds were both essential.

Shen Nanyi wasn't interested in this business at all. She just wanted to complete the task as soon as possible. She randomly picked a smaller stone and hugged it in her arms. "Boss, I'll take this one."

From the moment she entered the shop to the moment she made her choice, it took less than three minutes. Her speed was astonishing and attracted a lot of attention.

Shen Nanyi was young and stood out in this place. In the eyes of some people, she seemed like a child playing around, and they all cast curious glances at her.

The already quiet shop became completely silent. Everyone's eyes were fixed on Shen Nanyi.
