    Chapter 29,A Man Like None Other


    At that moment, many in the crowd had seen Jared spend ten thousand to purchase a rusty lump of


    iron ore. Some were having a heated debate over it, while othersughed mockingly at him. Given how


    young Jared was, they assumed he would be easily duped in his attempt to find treasures in Antique


    Street. Nevertheless, Jared ignored theirments and the fat stall owner’sughter. Instead, he


    gently squeezed the piece of iron ore, causing the rust to gradually break apart.


    Crack! The iron ore split open in his hand. After that, the crack began to grow bigger. “Wow, the kid has


    a really strong grip!” “Did he just spend ten thousand so that he can exercise his grip?” “Since he


    doesn’t look rich from his outfit, does he have any violent tendencies? Or else, why break it right after


    buying it?” The crowd couldn’t believe what was happening. Even the fat stall owner stared intently at


    Jared, curious as to what he was up to.


    Soon, the iron ore broke in half, and a dazzling ray of light shot out of it. A translucent piece of green


    jade the size of one’s thumb was revealed to be hiding inside. Holding the piece of jade, Jared threw


    away its shell. Evidently, the spiritual energy he had felt earlier wasing from the jewel. “T-that’s an


    imperial jade!” “Damn it, he’s gonna be rich!” “Did the kid already know there was something inside?”


    Everyone, including the stall owner, was so stupefied that their eyes almost popped out.


    Holding the piece of jade, Jared examined it for a moment before putting it into his pocket. He nned


    to make it into a pendant for his mother. By wearing it, she would be able to ward off evil spirits and


    nourish her body at the same time. Just when Jared was about to leave, the fat stall owner stopped


    him. “Kid, I have something to discuss with you. Why don’t you sell the rock to me?” the stall owner


    asked smilingly.


    “I’m not selling.” Jared shook his head and prepared to circle around the stall owner to leave. When the


    stall owner realized Jared was leaving with no intention of selling, his expression drastically changed.


    “Kid, have you made a mistake? That piece of jade belongs to me. How can you take it and leave?”


    “Yours?” Jared was stunned. “I just bought this, so how can it be yours? In fact, everyone just saw me


    purchase it!”


    “I sold you a lump of iron ore, not this piece of jade. You can take the iron ore with you, but the jade has


    to stay!” The moment the stall owner finished speaking, a group of menacing-looking men suddenly


    appeared from behind him. “That kid is just too inexperienced. Knowing that there’s something inside,


    he should have opened it at home instead of doing it here, which was just asking for trouble.” “He’s in


    deep shit now and is going to lose the treasure he’s just gotten his hands on.


    The piece of imperial jade is worth a million, at least!” “I think it’s definitely worth more than that.”


    Despite sympathizing with Jared, none in the crowd stood up for him. When he saw the group of


    brawny men, Jared responded with a smirk. “You guys are nothing but con men whomit daylight


    robbery!”


    “Shut your trap. Hand over the jade, and I’ll let you go. Or else, you’re not leaving here in one piece!”


    The stall owner was finally showing his true colors. “I’ve long heard about how much fraud and


    deception there is in Antique Street. Looks like the rumors are really true. Today, I would like to find out


    what you’ll do to me if I refuse to hand over the jade!” Jared sneered without an ounce of fear on his


    face. Jared’s words offended everyone on Antique Street.


    Not only did they swear at him, but they also egged the fat stall owner on to teach Jared a lesson. “Kid,


    you’re just courting death!” Just as he spoke, the stall owner threw a punch at Jared. From the hiss of


    the wind apanying the punch, Jared could see that his attacker was a trained man.


    There was no way ayman could unleash such a fast and powerful strike. Thinking about it, he


    realized it made sense for them to know how to fight. Otherwise, they wouldn’t dare run a fraudulent


    business in such an area.N?velDrama.Org owns all ? content.
