Chapter 258 Adding Fuel to the Fire
Jane found herself under the scrutiny of everyone, causing her face to change.
She felt extremely embarrassed.
Ever since she gained the ability to identify the quality of raw jade materials, she had always been
highly sought after wherever she went.
She couldn’t let anyone know that she had lost this ability now.
So, with a stern face, she looked at the several stone gambling experts and reprimanded, “How did you
choose the materials? They are all worthless, and they all turn out to be failures. I wanted to give you
all a chance to gain experience, but you have truly disappointed
me.”
These words made the stone gambling experts of Jane feel embarrassed and frustrated.
They were also legitimate stone gambling experts, but in the eyes of Jane, they had become worthless.
They could tell that this woman was being ridiculed by others and was now blaming them for
everything.
They were too angry to speak up.
They had indeed done their best. It was normal for them to be unsure after looking at so many
materials in half an hour.
And they felt that today was just too unlucky.
They had originally thought that some of the materials were going to be jade, but they all turned out to
be failures.
It was the first time they had encountered such a situation.
Simone was surprised and said, “I saw Miss Fordson carefully selecting each piece of material. and
even recording their numbers. So, were you just playing around?”
Tommy also added, “It seems that, besides you, Jane, the others in your Fordsons are a bit…
He didn’t finish his sentence, but everyone knew what he meant.
He was deliberately provoking the relationship between Jane and the stone gambling experts of the
Fordsons, exposing her previous scheming
13
The higher-ups of the Reichs and the stone gambling experts felt satisfied.
Jane had previously hinted several times in the circle that the stone gambling experts of the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtReichs were useless.
They were becoming more and more incompetent, dragging down the Reichs’ reputation.
Because Jane had taken all the good jade, they had to endure it. After all, she was more skilled
than them.
But Jane’s character was really bad. Not only did she criticize the stone gambling experts. from other
companies, but now she was publicly calling the stone gambling experts of the Fordsons worthless.
If this got out, these stone gambling experts would probably have a hard time finding another job.
Jane looked coldly at Simone and Tommy, “The Fordsons don’t lack jade, so we just let the company’s
stone gambling experts practice their skills. It’s just a few tens of millions going down the drain, and our
family doesn’t care.”
With a hint of arrogance, she continued, “I casually bet on a few pieces of rough stones that will
skyrocket, and then I’ll be back.”
Simone smiled and said, “Miss Fordson is indeed wealthy and powerful. Millions are just a drop in the
bucket for you. At the Fordson Family, you are also a leader.”
“Do you
want to let the Fordsons’ stone gambling experts have a go at the private bidding? You Fordsons are
really extravagant.”
Private bidding had a lot of high-quality raw materials and large stones, which were the real money
makers.
She deliberately brought up this topic to elevate Jane’s reputation once again.
Jane had already made a bid in the private bidding, and Jane couldn’t afford to let the Fordsons’ stone
gambling experts take the blame again.
This time, these stone gambling experts probably didn’t want to be scapegoats any more
Sure enough
One of the Fondsons stone gambling experts spoke up. “Miss Fordson chose the stones to bid in the
private bidding We didn’t choose any
Another stone gambling master said with a hint of sanam Having Miss Fortson is enough You don’t
need us useless people
They were waiting to see if Jane could win all the bids this time and open up some bigshot, expensive
jadeite.
Jane had been so popular in the past two years that she rarely made mistakes with the raw materials
she had seen, and she could always open up jadeite.
Moreover, every time private bidding made a bid, she could always bid for the raw materials. she
wanted at the right price.
This was quite impressive.
Since the bid numbers had already been submitted, Jane was not worried about this.
“Yes, I did the bids in the private bidding, so there won’t be any mistakes. For those who want to watch
the excitement, you can see the private bidding results when they are announced tomorrow. Now, you
can all leave.”
She couldn’t help but feel relieved that she had already selected the raw materials and made the bid
beforehand.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t know what to do.
And she had seen before that there were several times more high-quality and top-grade jadeite in the
anonymous bid than in the public bid.
Especially with a few large stones, if she could win them with the money she bid, they could appreciate
in value dozens of times or even hundreds of times after being opened.
Hmph, when the raw materials from these bids are revealed tomorrow, that’ll show them.
At that time, she would personally embarrass Tommy and Simone.
Simone smiled and said, “Then let’s witness Miss Fordson create another miracle tomorrow, I’m really
curious and looking forward to it.”
Tommy laughed, “I’m also looking forward to it. After all, Miss Fordson had some harsh words for my
family before. If Miss Fordson can create another miracle, even 1, as a member of the Reichs, will
admit defeat.”
He realized that Jane’s amazing ability to gamble on stones must have been obtained through
some improper means.
Simone should have already figured out the problem with the other party
That’s why Jane performed so poorly today.
Based on his understanding of Jane, if he could bid and win the raw materials to make a
name for himself, he would never let others practice on it.
So, he speculated that Jane was now facing problems and could no longer judge the quality of the raw
materials.
Although the hidden bids had already been submitted, he could tell that Simone was trying to provoke
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJane and put her in a difficult situation.
Of course, he had to add fuel to the fire as well.
As the two of them continued to praise and provoke each other, many jewelry company executives who
had been suppressed by Jane and lost the limelight in gambling on stones also joined in.
If Jane could still return with a full load without making any mistakes, they would accept it.
But if she failed this time, they wouldn’t hesitate to mock her.
They had been robbed of jade by Jane many times before and had been made fun of.
They were eagerly hoping and looking forward to reciprocating this time.
Although Jane didn’t anticipate any issues with the hidden bids, she still felt a slight unease.
Especially when everyone was showering her with praise like this.
Not only did she lack her previous confidence, but she also felt a bit irritated.
After a while, the organizers requested the individuals who submitted the hidden bids to proceed to the
front hall to witness the opening of the boxes.
Consequently, everyone made their way to the front hall.
The two organizers’ staff members proceeded to open the bidding boxes.
One by one, they extracted the bid forms from inside the boxes.
As each form was retrieved, they would audibly announce the name of the company written at the top,
or the nickname provided by the person.
This was done to confirm the receipt of the bid.
After reading all the bid forms,
Jane’s expression had already changed, and he inquired, “Where is our company’s bid form Why didn’t
they announce our name?”
The staff member asked, “Did you submit it to this box?”
Jane anxiously replied, “Yes, we submitted it at noon.”
Other members of the Fordsons also chimed in, ‘Yes, we submitted it in the morning”
“If you don’t believe us, you can check the surveillance footage.”
The two staff members conferred for a moment, and one of them went to inspect the morning
surveillance footage.
After a while, the individual returned.
They said to Jane, “You did submit the bid form in the morning.
Just as Jane was about to breathe a sigh of relief, they added, “However, you didn’t successfully place
it inside the box and left. As a result, the bid form fell out and got trampled on by people, and
eventually, the janitor mistook it for trash and swept it away”
