Runemaster in the Last Days novel Chapter 59

For someone of his stature, what kind of status Peter have to make him respectful?

Richer?

Not necessarily.

More influential?

Possible.

But it was not certain which field it was.

Sophia was not very good at using her brain, so she could only push this matter to the back with the intention of asking her brother later on. She turned to look at Riya. "Give it to me and I’ll pay for it. If there’s a jade inside, I’ll give you 10% of the value."

10%?

Riya nearly dropped the stone in her hand when she heard what Sophia said. Knowing that the jade inside was most likely very valuable, Riya knew very well that she might be earning more than 1 million just from 10% that Sophia promised.

It was definitely a lot for someone from an ordinary background like her who had never seen so much money in her entire life.

Oh wait, she had seen it.

In the newspaper.

:)

Naturally, it was not hers.

*cough*

"10% will be too much when I did nothing." Riya handed the stone to Sophia. "Just give me 1% as commission fee."

"1%? Wouldn’t that be too little?" Amelia arched her eyebrows. She knew more than Riya about how much a jade could make profit from the raw materials to the processing of the jewelry.

For good jade, if it was paired with good jewelry, their prices could shoot up to millions.

She herself had a lot of jewelry at her home.

It was just that she rarely used it when she was attending classes in the university because it was too bothersome. Not to mention, showing off her wealth would only make her targeted by other people.

Amelia was not that stupid.

"It’s not." Riya smiled. "I don’t want to take advantage of you."

Sophia wanted to refute that this small amount of money was nothing for her. But in the end, she could only nod and moved to the counter, handing the stone in her hand to be cut off.

They could see that this young woman didn’t seem to know anything about stone gambling, so it could only be attributed to luck.

And this made them jealous.

"They’re really lucky."

"Indeed."

Governor Zachary watched from the side and when he saw that there was truly a layer of green from inside, his face showed surprise. He turned to look at Peter. "You have good eyes, Mr. Peter."

"I just know a bit." Peter showed a smile.

When he first returned, he had been thinking of ways to earn money. Naturally, stone gambling was also considered and with his magic, it would be easy for him to sense the mana inside the jade.

"Is it fine to give this…" Governor Zachary knew the reason why Peter came here was not only to pick jade for him to earn money but also for other reasons.

After all, the world was no longer the same as before…

There were some changes and soon, these changes would be visible to them.

"It’s fine." Peter looked at the three young women at the front. "There should be more and I’m not planning to take advantage of others."
