Genshin Impact: Life Simulator

As Nathan's hammer struck down, the outer stone began to crack from the outside in.

What appeared inside surprised everyone.

After the jade ore was broken open, a jade-like circular stone with an emerald hue appeared.

Pure green throughout, it gleamed brilliantly under the sunlight.

"What exactly is going on?"

The noble lady covered her eyes, having been dazzled by the emerald radiance.

"Boss, how should I put this... this counts as a success, right!"

Nathan placed the circular jade in his hand, weighed it a bit, then looked at the dumbfounded vendor.

"This... this is jade, and it's the highest grade!"

Taking the jade from his hands and examining it repeatedly, the vendor could only explain with a bitter expression.

All the Jade Ore brought here were supposedly arranged beforehand, belonging to the worst of the worst quality.

Anyone with even a little experience in stone gambling would know nothing good would come from them.

Yet such an impossible thing happened right before his eyes.

Nathan swung the hammer like a complete novice, with movements that clearly showed he was an amateur.

Yet this amateur somehow managed to crack open the highest grade of jade.

"Haha, then let me ask you, Boss, how much is this piece of jade worth?"

Ignoring the other's dejected expression, Nathan continued to ask.

"Te... te... ten thousand Mora!"

At the mention of value, the vendor felt like dying.

As they say, watching others make money is harder than losing money yourself.

Moreover, Nathan and Ningguang were the targets of the noble lady's scheme.

"Is that the correct price?"

Leaving the miserable vendor, Nathan turned to look at Ningguang.

He actually knew nothing about jade prices.

So whether the other party was telling the truth or lying, he needed confirmation from Ningguang, the future Tianquan of the Liyue Qixing.

"That's the correct price!"

Ningguang nodded slowly at Nathan's question.

Even the highest quality jade was just raw material for making jewelry and ornaments.

The most important part was the processing - different craftsmanship would yield considerably high profits.

However, compared to the jade, Ningguang was more interested in Nathan. ( Need someone like ningguang in my life, please pray for me readers)

This confident strike, as if certain of success,

added another layer of mystery to Nathan in Ningguang's heart.

Was this luck, or something else? Her beautiful face was almost completely covered with an intoxicated expression.

As Nathan turned around again, he just missed Ningguang's captivated gaze.

"Boss... since this is stone gambling, when such jade appears, I can exchange it for money right here, right?"

"Of course... of course you can!"

The vendor nodded stiffly. Since they offered stone gambling activities, naturally they could exchange findings for money there.

But thinking about how he sold this to Nathan for 100 Mora, only to pay out a hundredfold in return, felt worse than eating dirt.

He could only console himself that this was just the other party's lucky find.

"It's not possible for every single one to yield jade, right? If that happens, I'll eat all these stones!"

Mind Reading talent activated, and hearing the vendor's thoughts that seemed like raising a death flag, Nathan just smiled knowingly.

He was absolutely certain about these stones today.

This was the power of the Golden Rule - guaranteed returns.

As for why the tenfold return became a hundredfold, that was because Nathan exploited a loophole.

He actively bargained the jade ore price down from 1,000 Mora to 100 Mora.

But each Jade Ore's inherent value remained at 1,000 Mora.

Using this loophole, Nathan's returns were actually calculated based on the 1,000 Mora baseline.

Therefore, each Jade Ore was destined to yield the highest quality jade.

Just as he concluded, Nathan proceeded to crack open ten Jade Ore in succession, all revealing jade with emerald luster.

"My, my, the drop rate today is really high!"

Nathan exclaimed with feeling, enjoying this 100% success rate.

If he had such luck playing gacha games in his previous life, he wouldn't have needed to resort to whale tactics.

"Ah..."

One's joy is another's sorrow. Seeing this scene, Ningguang was overflowing with delight.

But her nemesis, the noble lady, and the vendor,

were completely stunned, thoroughly shocked.

"Impossible, absolutely impossible, you must be cheating!"

The noble lady angrily walked over.

This was clearly meant to be a trap, how could it repeatedly yield successful results?

Stone gambling activities normally had minimal chances of finding jade.

Add to that all being highest quality, it was practically impossible.

If it were this easy to succeed, stone gambling, an activity with long historical roots, would have died out long ago.

After all, if success was this easy, wouldn't vendors lose everything down to their pants?

The only explanation must be that Nathan was cheating.

"Cheating? How am I cheating? Rather, isn't someone else being shameless with their cheating?"

Since she was Ningguang's nemesis, Nathan wouldn't be polite, coldly retorting back.

"You... you wild man, who are you calling names?"

The noble lady trembled with anger.

"Well, whoever admits to it... that's who I'm talking about!!!"

Nathan responded casually, not naming names yet clearly directing it all at the noble lady.

"However, if you think I'm cheating, you can help me break open the rest!"

"Hehe, you said it yourself!"

Faced with Nathan's confidence, the noble lady laughed coldly in anger.

With over eighty Jade Ore remaining, unless he cheated, how could the previous miracle repeat itself?

"Then hurry up, I'm waiting to exchange these for Mora at the boss's place!"

Nathan handed the hammer to the noble lady, speaking impatiently.

She was still gloating, unaware that after Nathan purchased these Jade Ore, they were all under the Golden Rule's influence - it didn't matter who broke them open.

The reason for provoking her was simply that he had grown tired of hammering and wanted to use her as free labor.

Watching the noble lady walk towards the pile of Jade Ore, Nathan smiled and returned to Ningguang's side.

Compared to the noble lady, he preferred standing with Ningguang.

That perfect figure, and that subtle fragrance, were things only Ningguang possessed.

"We're in for a good show!"

Nathan whispered in Ningguang's ear.

Unaware that his breath had completely conquered her ear.

Where his breath touched her earlobe, Ningguang's while skin gradually turned pink.
