chapter 8 Jinye gambles on stones ===

That night, Troy Mallin stayed with the two of them and taught them some knowledge about the appreciation of raw jade stones.

Both of them are extremely smart, and Keith Thubron, with the help of his divine vision, can hear them instantly.

Troy Mallin was very excited. Being able to accept such a smart disciple was like collecting a treasure for him.

It was late at night before Troy Mallin let them rest. Keith Thubron pretended that he wanted to stroll around the collection area to exercise his eyesight.

Troy Mallin just thought that he was as obsessed with antiques as himself and readily agreed.

After Keith Thubron waited for the two people to leave, he immediately walked into the treasure area, felt the spiritual energy of heaven and earth coming towards his face, and sat down to practice the "Hunyuan Qi Condensation Technique".

The spiritual energy of all things here is very rich. After practicing here for an hour, Keith Thubron achieved the results he had achieved by practicing in a rented house for one night.

"Kaka..."

Keith Thubron's body kept hearing the sound of breaking through barriers, and finally, his cultivation level stabilized at the early stage of the third level of Qi Condensation.

"So strong and angry!"

Huge energy is flowing in Keith Thubron's body, and even his divine eyes are stronger than before. Not only can his eyesight now see farther, but he can also penetrate thicker objects.

Suddenly, the voice of the weapon spirit sounded in his mind: "Nine steps to change the universe."

Afterwards, Keith Thubron naturally accepted the inheritance of the "Nine steps to change the universe". It seems that as his realm improves, the weapon spirit will take the initiative to teach him more advanced techniques.

Keith Thubron pondered for a while and then understood the practice method of "Nine steps to change the universe". He stood up and performed this mysterious step method.

This set of exercises is based on the Qiankun Bagua. Every time he goes through a circle, it prompts the true energy in his body to cultivate on its own.

The stronger his true energy, the lighter and faster his steps are; and the faster his steps, the stronger his true energy. The two depend on each other and promote improvement in cultivation.

In this museum filled with collections, Keith Thubron was like a fish swimming into the sea, moving around and feeling very uncomfortable.

After learning this set of footwork, ordinary warriors would never be able to hurt him in the slightest.

It was almost dawn, but Keith Thubron didn't feel tired. In order to avoid causing unnecessary trouble, he also went back to his room to rest.

After breakfast, Troy Mallin contacted "Old Good" and told him about the appearance of Dorothy Creets phoenix hairpin. "Old Good" expressed that he wanted to take a look, so Troy Mallin arranged for Gertrude Mallin to take Keith Thubron to see Lao Jin.

When Keith Thubron left, Troy Mallin also promised him a place in his own doctoral class.

Keith Thubron was very happy. If he could get a doctorate, he would be a great ancestor. His parents would be very happy.

Sitting in the car, Tang Fan asked: "Sister Mo, who is this ' Old Good'?"

"Grandpa Jin and my grandfather are friends. He is a descendant of the royal family and has a special liking for royal treasures left among the people."

"No wonder the teacher recommended Golden hairpin to him!"

"Based on what I know about Grandpa Jin, he will definitely buy the Golden hairpin!"

“Then how much should I charge?”

"You want it for fifteen million."

"Ok, I see."

Half an hour later, Gertrude Mallin drove the car to the door of a spacious courtyard, which covered an area of ​​several hundred acres and contained six villas alone.

Gertrude Mallin parked the car and led Keith Thubron towards the villa behind.

Lord Jin arranged for his servants to wait at the door and welcomed the two of them into the living room.

Mr. Jin is older than Troy Mallin. He is wearing a green robe and a golden mandarin jacket. His gray braids are thrown back on his head. He looks a little funny.

Keith Thubron was stunned for a while. If he didn't know this, he would have thought he was on the wrong set!

Behind Mr. Jin stood two middle-aged men in robes, with broad faces, big ears, and bright eyes.

Keith Thubron felt a strong smell of blood on them, thinking that these two people had lives in their hands.

"Grandpa Jin, Xiaoyan wishes you well!"Gertrude Mallin greeted with a smile.

"Hello, granddaughter!"

Lord Jin smiled slightly and glanced at Keith Thubron.

"I, Keith Thubron, have met Lord Jin!"

"I heard that Lao Mo accepted you as his disciple?"

"Yes."

Lord Jin looked at Keith Thubron intently and laughed: "This old guy, who knows whether he is accepting a disciple or a grandson-in-law, haha..."

"Grandpa Jin, you are making fun of me again!"Gertrude Mallin face turned red with embarrassment.

"Okay, I won't talk anymore. You're welcome, sit down, uh..." Mr. Jin suddenly turned pale and reached out to rub his forehead.

"Grandpa Jin, what's wrong with you?"Gertrude Mallin was startled.

"It's okay. I've been having headaches lately. As people get older, they have more problems!"

Keith Thubron stared at Lord Jin's head and was shocked. He had already seen the disease!

"Have you brought the things?" Jin Ye asked impatiently.

Keith Thubron took out the Golden hairpin and brought it to Lord Jin, and said politely: "There is also a letter and a seal here, please take a look!"

Master Jin looked at the Golden hairpin hairpin with a startled look on his face, and said excitedly: "You can't be wrong, this is Lafayette's thing!"

Mr. Jin played with it for a while, then opened the yellowed paper, and nodded while reading: "I heard my ancestors mentioned this matter, I can only hate Meng Xiang for not keeping it properly, damn it!"

Tang Fan thought to himself that it was no wonder that Mr. Jin and Mr. Mo could become good friends. They both had weird tempers.

Lord Jin looked at Tang Fan and asked, "My dear friend, please make an offer!"

"You are the elder, everything is up to you!"

Jin Ye was very satisfied with Keith Thubron's attitude and said with a smile, "Do you dare to play a gamble with me?"

"How do you want to bet?"

"I have eight pieces of jadeite. Do you want to try your luck?"

"What if the stone I selected is bullish?"Keith Thubron asked with a weird look on his face.

"No matter how many times the price rises, it's all yours. A gentleman's words will never catch up with you!"

"Okay, then I'll bet with Mr. Jin!"

"I disagree!"

Gertrude Mallin glared at Keith Thubron fiercely and said, "Grandpa Jin, Tang Fan is a newcomer to the industry. What if you make the wrong choice?"

"Then I don't care, I'm willing to admit defeat!"

This Mr. Jin always sticks to his word and will fall out whenever he wants.

Keith Thubron pulled Gertrude Mallin and said with a smile: "Master Jin is right, I am willing to admit defeat, as long as you are happy!"

"You are brave and have a bad temper with me!"

Jin Ye became more playful and immediately ordered his servants to take out eight jadeite stones and lay them out in a row. The small ones were several kilograms and the large ones were dozens of kilograms.

These eight rough stones all have small windows, and at first glance they look good for planting water.

Keith Thubron circled around the eight rough stones several times, giving the impression that he was having a hard time making a choice. In fact,

His divine eyes have already clearly seen the internal appearance of the original stone!

After a minute, Keith Thubron finally made a decision.

"I want stone No. 3!"

Gertrude Mallin eyes went dark. The stone had obvious cracks extending inward. Under the light, there were fine cotton-like crystals inside. Maybe it was even worse inside.

"Haha...boy, let's make a bet, we've made an agreement!"

Lord Jin was worried that Keith Thubron would regret it, so he immediately asked someone to cut the rough stone.

Taking advantage of this moment, Gertrude Mallin said to Keith Thubron: "Didn't Grandpa and I teach you? Didn't you see the crack?"

"I saw it."

"and you……"

"Sister Mo, the one on the outside is cracked and worthless, but the inside may be in better condition!"

"You're so mad at me!"Gertrude Mallin stopped talking and stared at the rough stone being cut.
