The Understated Dragon Lord novel Chapter 168

Andrew was still somewhat incredulous and reaffirmed, "Are you sure that the stone contains the finest quality Imperial Green Jade worth ten billion?"

"I am the King of Jade Gambling, and I never rely on luck—only my skill! I am absolutely certain that stone contains the finest quality Imperial Green Jade worth ten billion!" Isaac stated confidently and resolutely.

"And if the stone doesn't contain Imperial Green Jade worth ten billion, what then?" Andrew wanted Isaac to actually put something on the line instead of just spouting words.

Isaac raised his right hand and promised, "The title of the King of Jade Gambling was won by this right hand. If the 8.8 billion-priced stone does not contain the finest quality Imperial Green Jade worth ten billion, I will chop off this hand!"

"Good!" Andrew agreed.

However, Isaac set a condition. "Andrew, since I am risking my right hand, it's not enough to just give me a billion after winning. If you win the ten billion from this country boy, I want a fair share—at least five billion."

Isaac was no saint; he was involved in Jade Gambling with Andrew for money. Having now risked his hand, he certainly wanted more. Greed often leads to death!

Andrew was stunned, looking disbelievingly at Isaac. "Are you bargaining with me?"

"I've risked my right hand in the wager, Andrew. I think I've made a considerable sacrifice, don't you agree?"

"Now that I know the best quality Imperial Green Jade worth ten billion is in that stone, whether you're involved or not is irrelevant."
