Rebirth Of The Godly Prodigal Chapter 542

Chapter 542: Resource Chamber of Commerce Meeting (Part Thirteen)Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Soon, with a “ding” sound, the System explained, “Gem processing, embedding, and magic enhancement upgrade completed. Current skill status: Gem advancement. The remaining materials from processing as well as unprocessed materials will possess 75% of its attributes. (Additional note: Embedding can only be done once. Multiple embedding will cause loss of attributes. Only completed products of more than two kilograms will have attributes.)

“This is good, this is good.” Hong Dali beamed as he heard the explanation. “With this, I have nothing to worry about. Haha!”

It may not seem like much on the surface. But on deeper thought, one would understand its importance.

Before, when Hong Dali processed anything, the remaining materials had no attributes. However, with the advancement of the skill, the remaining sc.r.a.ps or materials would contain three-quarters of its attributes! What did that mean? It meant that when Hong Dali gave away unprocessed gems, those would have attributes!

That was a whole new level completely! With the abundance of raw materials, Hong Dali no longer needed to process them himself—all he had to do was give instructions!

The System continued—

“31-40, each point added to the skill will consume 1 attribute point. Additionally, 4 attribute points can be added to gems.

“41-50, each point added to the skill will consume 2 attribute points. Additionally, 6 attribute points can be added to gems.

“51-60, each point added to the skill will consume 3 attribute points. Additionally, 8 attribute points can be added to gems.

“Level 60 and above, unable to level up. System needs to be upgraded before it can continue to level up.”

Hong Dali was stunned. He could add so many attribute points to the gems. That's awesome!

After he unlocked the branch upgrade, he had 48 attribute points. After the first level, he had 38 attribute points left. After the second level, he had 18 attribute points left. With one more upgrade, he added a total of 54 attribute points directly to gem processing!

In that case, there would be 8 additional attribute points for gems that he processed.

That was terrifying!

After adding all the attribute points, Hong Dali took a deep breath. “Wahahahaha. The ritual is completed. Let's begin!”

Hearing that, Gong Zhiwen and the rest got interested. Gong Zhiwen said, “Young Master Dali, the uncut stones are of the best quality. With Young Master Dali's luck, I'm sure you will be able to get the best gems out of it. Aiya, this is exciting. With one cut, it will be hard to tell what precious gems could come out of it.”

“Yes, yes. I know.” Hong Dali pointed to an uncut stone that looked to weigh about two tons. “Squandering is a skill. We need to test the waters first—this one, then!”

See, see. Young Master Dali was indeed different from others. He pointed to an uncut stone worth 22 million just like that!

Stone-gambling was considered safe for Hong Dali. The jade that he gambled on was no problem as long as it was not sold to others. The jade that he gambled on previously, Hong Dali used it to exchange for the most important Health attributes. Now, most of his friends' and families' Health attribute was almost full. Those that were not full also reached about 90%. Hence, he was not in a hurry. The attribute gem that he needed the most was energy gem.

In this era of energy, with energy, one could control the economy—especially with the head of Heavenly State backing him, there was no need for him to hesitate.

Stone-gambling was akin to gambling with money. Nine out of ten times were losses. After Hong Dali claimed that he did the necessary rituals, followed by the selection of an uncut stone worth 22 million, this shocked Gong Zhiwen and most people present.

“It seems squandering really is a skill!” Gong Zhiwen thought. “Aye, CEO Hong had a son who squanders but is able to multiply money, comparisons are odious. Young Master Dali is one exotic prodigal!”

While they appeared shocked, the lackeys around Hong Dali were calm—twenty over million was just pocket money to Young Master. It was not worth mentioning, not worth mentioning at all!

Those willing to follow the freighter were all fanatics of the jade market. They would try their luck on uncut stones worth millions in their free time. When they heard Hong Dali was going to cut this stone worth 22 million, all of them looked forward to it.

One person asked, “Brother Chao, I've heard of Young Master Dali's luck, but should he have tried on a smaller stone first? He chose the best one on his first try?”

Yang Chao spread his hands. “Young Master Dali is not easily understood. I don't know what's going on, too. Just watch on.”

Another person agreed. “That's right. Young Master Dali is a miracle creator. He's not ordinary. He's the reincarnation of the G.o.d of Fortune. We must not doubt him. Let's just watch quietly!”

Tianhai Military District Headquarters.

“Bureau Chief, oh no! Something big happened!” Mu Huishou rushed into the Bureau Chief's temporary office like a whirlwind. He was sweating profusely and shouting, “Something happened to Young Master Dali's luck detector device!”

“Luck detector device?” The Bureau Chief was shocked. He asked anxiously, “Isn't he out at the sea? The distance from the mainland is at least a few hundred kilometers. There is a reaction from the luck detector device despite the distance?!”

The Bureau Chief remembered clearly that the best distance for the luck detector device was five kilometers. There was actually a reaction with a few hundred kilometers apart?!

“Yes, yes…” Mu Huishou looked like he was just fished out of water. “There is a reaction. And it's very strong!”

“What is going on?!” The Bureau Chief was worried. It was not easy to have a bit of progress, was something about to happen? “What did the little rascal Hong Dali do now? Why is it affecting the luck detector? What level is it on now?!”

“It's… it's…” Mu Huishou gulped. “Level Twelve, Good Fortune Befalls You!”

“Finished!” The Bureau Chief felt weak all over and sat on the sofa. “Something big is bound to happen! Go find out, go investigate now and see what happened!”

“I've investigated.” Mu Huishou hurriedly replied. “Hong Weiguo sent Gong Zhiwen to look for Young Master Dali with a huge freighter before he got impeached. The freighter contained uncut jade stones. And, just like that…”

Hearing that, the Bureau Chief took a deep breath.

He was quiet for a while, then he said, “Things are going to change. Go make arrangements immediately. Other than blocking the news, stop everything else! Wait for the latest news!”

“Yes!”

Tianhai, on the deck of the freighter.

“Young Master Dali, shall we get ready to cut the stone?” Since Hong Dali had selected the uncut stone, next was the cutting. Gong Zhiwen summoned a professional stonecutter and said, “Let's begin?”

“Of course.” Hong Dali beamed. “Cut it open and see if there are any rocks!”

There would definitely be rocks, jade would be a different matter. Gong Zhiwen waved his hand decisively. “Get ready, cut!”

With his instruction, everyone held their breath. Young Master Dali was undefeatable in his luck. Just one uncut stone had ama.s.sed such a big scene. What would they find?

Naturally, Hong Dali was calm—he only needed to squander…

This was an uncut stone worth 22 million. It was no small matter. The stonecutter was sweating profusely. He carefully cut the stone with undivided attention!

An uncut stone of such quality, the quality of jade aside, as long as there was any, it would definitely be huge. If he accidentally spoiled it, it wouldn't be enough to throw him into the sea to feed the sharks.

He was right to take extra care. But Hong Dali implied that it was too slow. Hence, he instructed his lackey, “This cutting is too slow. You, get a hammer and hammer it. Either there is jade or there is nothing!”

Gong Zhiwen: “…” Yang Chao: “…” CEO Zhou: “…” Stonecutter: “…” The others: “…”

d.a.m.n! This was the most exciting moment of stone-cutting. Who would use a hammer to knock it?!

Everyone feared when they heard that. Hong Dali's lackey didn't care too much. He took the hammer and knocked hard on it once. He almost scared everyone to death—if he had destroyed the jade inside…

Before everyone could react, the stonecutter exclaimed, “It's out, it's out! There's green! Wait, let me take a look!” He carefully pried the stone open with his hands and looked using his magnifying gla.s.s. He stared with his eyes wide open and shuddered.

“What is out? Quick, say!” Gong Zhiwen said anxiously, “What kind is it?”

“This… this…” The stonecutter was stunned for almost three minutes. Then, he howled with all his might. “Ice-type, it's ice-type! Such a big piece of ice-type jade! My G.o.d, am I… dreaming?!”

Gong Zhiwen: “…” Yang Chao: “…” CEO Zhou: “…” Stonecutter: “…” The others: “…”

“Ice-type. Its transparency and l.u.s.ter were a little lacking compared to the gla.s.s type. As its name implied, it was as transparent as ice. This was a type of jade that was worth quite a lot.

Especially such a big piece…

Pudong!

Tang Muxin exclaimed, “Uncle Gong, CEO Zhou jumped into the sea!” It seemed CEO Zhou had suffered a blow. If he had cut it himself, he could sell it for at least 200 million…

Everyone was shocked!

It was indeed the reincarnation of the G.o.d of Fortune, Young Master Dali. Just a stone, cracked opened with a hammer, and it was ice-type!

Everyone present thought. “In the future, we'll use a hammer for stone cutting!”
