I want them all!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Tang Hao walked forward, he pointed to the stones on display on both sides.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The stones were arranged in rows. They had different colors, shapes, and sizes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A mundane person would scrutinize a stone for half a day before making a decision.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Tang Hao picked his stones just by giving them a quick glance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His high-handed attitude shocked many people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Wow! Just who is that person? What a spendthrift! That’s not how you should spend money even if you’re rich. He’ll be out of his fortune very soon!” Someone mocked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A person next to him said, “Hah! He’s not a spendthrift, you idiot. He’s a true master of jade appraisal. He’s already a legend in the stone-gambling scene of Provincial City.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What? So that’s him?” The other person was shocked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the stone-gambling scene of Provincial City, there were rumors of an amazing person who could appraise high-quality raw jade by sight, and he never missed his mark.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Furthermore, that person only bought raw jade from stone-gambling stores. He could clear out a store of all its high-quality jade.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They did not expect that the amazing person in the rumors was so young.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The person came to his senses, and his gaze turned respectful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone else around Tang Hao seemed eager to please him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’re here, Master! I’m Lil Chen, we’ve met before!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Look at this stone, Master! What do you think of it?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many people crowded around Tang Hao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tang Hao talked to each one of them and continued walking forward, his eyes sweeping at the array of stones on display.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This one, and that one... I want them all!” He occasionally said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A few employees of the store followed behind him, preparing to take whichever stone he pointed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He went around the store once. He had selected more than thirty stones in about ten minutes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The employees remained calm. They were used to Tang Hao’s display.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, they were thoroughly shocked the first time Tang Hao did that. He had selected more than fifty stones, which rang up to almost twenty million yuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were shocked for a second time when some of the rocks were cut open. They all contained high-quality jade, and one of them was even a rare glass type. He had broken even on his gamble by those few pieces alone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>News got out, and that rumor became a legend in the stone-gambling scene.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You have selected thirty-six stones, Mr. Tang, the total amount is nine million and six hundred thousand yuan. Should I cut them open to verify your purchase?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The boss of the stone-gambling stone came up to Tang Hao and spoke courteously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mr. Tang might be young, but the boss had to respect him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tang Hao glanced at those stones and shook his head. “No, it’s fine. It’s just a bit of money. Bring everything outside!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The boss laughed drily when he heard that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘Just a bit of money? This Mr. Tang is such a spendthrift!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, he had to admit Mr. Tang’s amazing abilities. Mr. Tang must have made a fortune from stone-gambling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, Mr. Tang! All of you, help him carry the stones outside!” The boss beckoned at a few of his employees.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tang Hao hired a moving truck to transport the stones some distance away. After the stones were unloaded and the truck left, he stashed the stones in his pocket dimension.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After keeping away the last stone, Tang Hao dusted his hands and nodded satisfactorily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The quality of those stones was quite good. A few of them could be used to produce spirit jade for Artifacts, while the others could be used to craft talismans.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He went back to his car and started driving along the road.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Very soon, he arrived at the city center.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was about four o’clock in the afternoon. The roads were packed with cars.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, he heard the shriek of a police siren from behind him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He turned around to see a convoy of police cars speeding down the road.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What’s going on?” Tang Hao furrowed his brows.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He thought for a bit and decided to follow them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The police cars stopped a few minutes later. Several police cars were already at the scene.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A huge crowd had formed behind the police lines.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tang Hao was surprised when he saw that. It looked like a hostage situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He drove forward a little more and parked his car by the side of the road.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He got out of the car and assessed the situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The police cars were parked around a bank, whose front doors were tightly shut.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Police sirens could be heard on the roads. More police cars were coming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh my, a bank robbery!” Tang Hao was shocked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had encountered robberies in real life, but he had only seen bank robberies in movies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He guessed that the robbers were holding hostages inside, and they were in a standoff with the police.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘Sigh, why can’t they rob something else other than banks? Even if they want to rob a bank, they need better skills! Now that the police have surrounded them, how are they going to escape, even if they have hostages?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘The hostages’ lives are in danger though!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tang Hao furrowed his brows when he thought of that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He eavesdropped on the conversations around him, and his expression turned grim.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was said that there were gunshots from within the bank.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘The robbers have guns!’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was bad news.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A few more police cars arrived soon. A car door opened, and a beautiful figure walked out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Wow!” The surrounding crowd exclaimed in surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The men’s eyes widened when they saw her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Wow, a beautiful police officer!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh, oh, oh! She turned her head and looked at me! I’m dead! Dead, I tell you!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The men shouted excitedly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their eyes devoured that incredibly attractive body eagerly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The beautiful woman turned around and glanced coldly at them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had a perfectly oval-shaped face. Her skin was as fair as snow, and her eyebrows were like brush strokes. Her long, jet-black hair fell over her shoulders. Her beauty was breathtaking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her body was even more attractive. She was tall, slender, and curvaceous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She straightened her brows angrily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After glaring at the men all around her, she turned around and continued walking forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The men exclaimed again when they saw her perfect back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tang Hao was surprised when he saw her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>‘Isn’t that Zhao Qingxue?’\u003C\u002Fp>",1095,"2026-06-09T06:50:05.088Z",1,"novelbin.me","82de7a4c0ef630c92d838810fc1e9278e8fb8b331537978605c2826143dceae6","the-mightiest-little-peasant-chapter-479","the-mightiest-little-peasant-chapter-477",3867,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-mightiest-little-peasant-cover.jpg"]
