Nora Wilson had previously heard Sean Knight say that trading could yield eight to ten times the profit, and she had already found it quite exaggerating.
But now, looking at a piece of raw lapis lazuli that could sell for a five-digit figure domestically, yet was exchanged for only a few hundred yuan worth of various cheap clothes, at most a thousand, Nora's entire worldview was on the verge of collapsing.
It was evident that the local resident who traded the raw stone for clothes was very happy, thanking the security guard who made the exchange profusely while holding the clothes.
What kind of world is this!
As a researcher at the Geological Research Institute and very familiar with various gemstones and ores, they were naturally clear about the value of the raw lapis lazuli.
So it wasn't just Nora who was astonished—Caleb Stevens and Daniel Ward were equally shocked.
