Making you a son-in-law is not about making you conquer the world.

Lin Ping stood there, stunned. He hadn't expected a woman's sixth sense to be so sharp. He thought to himself, "If I really want to unlock the function of my right eye, hiding won't help!"

However, Lin Ping has a moral bottom line and would not use his X-ray vision to spy on a girl's body, let alone his beloved wife.

She could only answer seriously, "If my husband says it's a guess, would my wife believe him?"

In Jiang Yunying's mind, Lin Ping was mostly a playboy, so whenever he answered questions seriously, Jiang Yunying would believe him without a doubt and nod vigorously, saying, "I believe you!"

In fact, whether Lin Ping has X-ray vision or not is irrelevant to Jiang Yunying. After all, she is his wife, and when the opportunity arises, Lin Ping can openly look at her.

Right now, earning those 20,000 taels of silver is the most important thing, and Jiang Yunying is generally happy about that.

Wan Yi lay weakly on the ground, his chest aching slightly. He hadn't expected his stones to have such a high yield. He hurriedly took the stones that Lin Ping had initially wanted to buy and asked the stone cutter to polish them.

However, when the carving knife peeled off one layer of the outer skin, no green was revealed... The second layer also did not reveal any green. It wasn't until the stone was only the size of an egg that Wan Yi realized there would be no green inside at all.

Next, several other stones were cut open one after another, but not a single bit of green was revealed.

thump……

Wan Yi's heavy body collapsed to the ground again, his heart bleeding. He finally realized that he had been tricked by Lin Ping, and all the stones that could yield green jade had been bought up by the other party.

Clearly, Lin Ping guessed that Wan Yi would deliberately make things difficult for him, so he initially deliberately selected several stones that had no green color at all. Sure enough, Wan Yi raised the price, and then gradually fell into the trap.

The other customers were also sensible. They sighed and said, "It seems that all the stones that could yield green jade have been bought up by the Prince Consort. The rest are all worthless stones. I'll go back and tell my friends and family not to come here to gamble on stones anymore."

The others nodded in agreement, and hurriedly left the casino, fearing that their wealthy relatives and friends might lose money there.

"Don't go, sir, don't go!"

Wan Yi, lying on the ground, clung tightly to one of the men's legs, only to be mercilessly kicked away.

Once the news leaks out, the stones worth tens of thousands of taels will be unwanted by anyone. In other words, Lin Ping's actions have caused the gambling house to lose as much as 30,000 taels.

Wan Yi's heart tightened, and blood spurted from his mouth more than ten feet away. He lay on the ground like a dead pig, his dazed eyes showing no sign of life.

"Husband, let's go!"

Jiang Yunying knew that Lin Ping had bought all the stones that could yield green jade, so there was no point in staying here any longer.

Lin Ping grinned slyly: "There's still a good show to come!"

"..."

Jiang Yunying remained silent, knowing full well that Wan Yi was likely in grave danger, and only hoped that her husband would not go on a killing spree.

Sure enough, a quarter of an hour later, the entrance to the gambling house was surrounded by rich young men, all shouting loudly, saying that Wan Yi had cheated customers by using some waste stones as raw materials.

The bustling Xiangpu Street has never lacked onlookers, and this commotion immediately attracted more onlookers, who, even those unaware of the facts, began to chime in.

Wan Yi had just fainted, but he had to pull himself together again, spitting out blood and foam as he explained, "Everyone, please don't misunderstand. The stone yield of Jinmanlou Casino is extremely high. The Prince Consort can testify to that!"

Upon hearing the prestigious title of "Prince Consort," the crowd quieted down, waiting for Lin Ping to speak.

"Shifting the blame? This guy's got some tricks up his sleeve!"

Lin Ping looked at Wan Yi with admiration, never expecting that this guy had become so smart.

As Wan Yi said, every stone Lin Ping bought yielded jade, which proves that the stone yield is high, and it's really hard to refute.

"I don't believe it! Unless Boss Wan personally cuts open a piece of jade!" Li Mingxuan, who was mingling in the crowd, shouted loudly, and Jiang Yunyu next to him echoed.

"That's right, unless Boss Wan tests the waters himself!" kept shouting from the crowd.

The readers aren't fools. If your gambling den really had such a high payout rate, would you sell it for trillions at such a low price? There must be something fishy going on.

Wan Yi gritted his teeth and shouted at his men, "Bring out all the stones and smash them!"

Although Wan Yi didn't know what kind of magic Lin Ping had used, he didn't believe that Lin Ping had bought up all the stones that could produce green jade. As long as he could break out a little bit of green jade, he could justify his actions and maybe even sell it for a better price.

Therefore, even with a trillion-dollar investment, they are taking a gamble, and even try to put the stones that are more likely to yield green jade first when they are hammered. If they can get green jade with just one hammer blow, customers will definitely rush to buy them.

"Bang!" The gambling den worker smashed the stone into powder with a hammer, and a hazy gray powder immediately floated in the air, but there was not a trace of green fluorescence.

Wan Yi shuddered. This was a stone he had personally selected based on his years of experience, yet it didn't even have a hint of green.

"Smash! Keep smashing! Smash it hard!" Wan Yi said through gritted teeth, clearly blinded by rage.

bang bang bang...

As the workers swung their hammers, stone after stone was smashed into powder. The dust in the air obscured everyone's vision, but no green could be seen.

"If you can produce even a little bit of green, I'll cut off Leonardo DiCaprio's testicles and let you kick them around like a ball!"

Lin Ping sneered inwardly, clearly having great confidence in the abilities of his right eye.

Sure enough, in just fifteen minutes, hundreds of the larger stones were smashed into powder, still showing no green color. The remaining fist-sized stones lay awkwardly on the ground, unsure of their fate.

Wan Yi's weak legs couldn't support his obese body any longer, and he rolled onto the ground, muttering, "Smash them all!"

"Boss, we can't smash it anymore!" the exhausted waiter pleaded, knowing full well that each blow would cost over a hundred taels of silver.

"Boss Wan, no one will be willing to smash things if you don't pay!" Lin Ping said sarcastically from the side.

"Give them money? No way! I, Wan Yi, would rather squeeze every last drop out of these guys than give them extra money." Wan Yi is the kind of person who'd skim off every last drop of profit, practically quenching his thirst with water; some have even seen him eat mosquito legs...

Even so, Wan Yi still shouted loudly, "Smash one piece for ten taels of silver!"

As the saying goes, a person lives for their reputation, and a tree lives for its bark. Wan Yi felt like his face was being trampled and rubbed into the ground by Lin Ping, so how could he not retaliate?

"Ten taels of silver?" The men gasped. One swing of the hammer was three months' worth of profit. After a moment's hesitation, they swung the hammer like an engine, giving off a vibe of whack-a-mole.

After all the stones were smashed to powder, no green jade emerged. Wan Yi's face turned deathly pale; he felt like dying, even muttering under his breath, "Smash my head too..."

He not only lost tens of thousands of taels of silver worth of stones, but also damaged the reputation of the gambling house. In less than a day, the news that Jinmanlou gambling house used waste stones as raw materials would become the talk of the town.

In other words, Jinmanlou's gambling den can basically close down.

"What on earth is going on?" At this moment, Qian Duoduo emerged from the crowd with a long face. Seeing the gray sky and the broken stones scattered on the ground, his heart skipped a beat.

Jinmanlou wasn't far from the gambling den, so Qian Duoduo should have arrived long ago. However, he was summoned by Tian Duoduo for questioning early in the morning, and it took Wan Yi's men a long search to finally bring him back.

Meanwhile, Tian Duoduo, hiding in the crowd, was also shocked and broke out in a cold sweat. He roughly guessed what had happened to the gambling house, otherwise, Wan Yi wouldn't have collapsed on the ground.

Upon hearing Qian Duoduo's voice, Wan Yi was startled and opened her eyes again, tearfully recounting everything that had just happened.

"Outrageous! Lin Ping, I'll make you pay!"

Qian Duoduo shouted in near-madness, completely unaware that Lin Ping was right next to him.

"What a coincidence, Mr. Qian is here too. I was just about to look for you!" Lin Ping walked up to Qian Duoduo with a smile, completely ignoring the other party's provocation.

Qian Duoduo clenched her fists, her teeth itching with hatred. If she weren't outmatched by Lin Ping, she would have beaten him black and blue.

"If I remember correctly, the City Lord's Mansion is paying back the money today!"

Qian Duoduo said coldly, as if afraid that the onlookers would miss her words.

In his anger, he had long forgotten Tian Duoduo's earnest words and wished he could ruin the reputation of the City Lord's Mansion.

"The City Lord's Mansion owes Jin Manlou money?" The onlookers were astonished, never expecting that the City Lord's Mansion would owe money.

Qian Duoduo's words were like a bombshell, immediately exploding in the crowd, undoubtedly impacting the towering and majestic image of the City Lord's Mansion.

At this moment, Jiang Yunying revealed her murderous intent, determined not to allow anyone to harm the interests of the City Lord's Mansion.

"Good! Very good! Boss Qian, you must remember what you said!" Lin Ping was not angry but amused, and he held Jiang Yunying's left hand to prevent her from making any rash moves.

"Idiot! It's all over now!" Tian Duoduo stomped her foot, naturally seeing the cold killing intent in Lin Ping's eyes.

He had witnessed Lin Ping's insidious methods and repeatedly emphasized to Qian Duoduo that when meeting Lin Ping, they should be humble and obsequious, and try their best to appease the other party's anger. As for the debts, it didn't matter when they were repaid.

Unfortunately, Qian Duoduo couldn't control his anger. Besides, he believed that the City Lord's Mansion had offended many forces and wouldn't live much longer, so there was nothing to be afraid of.

Even if Tian Duoduo wanted to apologize, it was too late; Qian Duoduo had already damaged the reputation of the City Lord's Mansion.

“Boss Qian, you’re really in a hurry. The gold in the City Lord’s Mansion is buried underground and can’t be dug up anytime soon. If I, Lin Ping, hadn’t lost money at your gambling den, why would I have written an IOU in the name of the City Lord’s Mansion?” Lin Ping replied calmly.

Jiang Yunying stared at Lin Ping's serious boasting with a suspicious look, but inwardly she was full of admiration.

This statement not only indicated that the city lord's mansion had plenty of money, but also told everyone that all the silver was borrowed by Lin Ping.
