Upon hearing this, Chen An turned to look at him. "Mr. Martin, is there something you want to say?"

"Mr. Chen, those two are easy to talk to, but I'm different." Martin said, waving his hand behind him. Immediately, a man walked over quickly and handed over three pieces of jadeite rough.

Martin took it and placed it on the table, then looked up at Chen An.

"Mr. Chen, here are three jadeite rough stones. If you can select the one with the highest value, I will agree to cooperate with you."

"I don't need a partner who doesn't know anything. You need to show me your skills."

Seeing this, Chen An smiled noncommittally, "No problem, I do know a bit about raw stones."

As he spoke, he picked up each of the jadeite rough stones, activated his Eye of Exploration ability, and the three jadeite rough stones began to exude their unique value.

The leftmost and middlemost stones are only blue, while only the rightmost rough stone emits a purple light.

Seeing this, Chen An picked up the rough stone without any hesitation and said calmly, "This one."

Martin frowned after hearing this. "Mr. Chen, are you sure? You can take a closer look, or you can use the tools."

The other party examined it for less than a minute, yet they were able to so decisively determine that this rough stone was the most valuable. Was it just bluffing, or did they truly possess extraordinary abilities?

"No need, this one is fine, and it's worth no less than $100,000," Chen An said.

After hearing this, Shen Qingshan and the others were also curious about whether what the other party said was true or not.

"Alright." Martin nodded, picked up the rough stone and handed it to his subordinate beside him, "Take it and cut it open to see if it's really as accurate as Mr. Chen said."

"OK!"

The subordinate took the raw stone and quickly ran outside.

A few minutes later, the man strode over again, his eyes filled with indescribable shock.

"What kind of ice crystal is it?" Martin asked.

"Boss, it's...it's an extremely rare ice-type violet!"

Upon hearing this, Martin was startled and quickly took the rough stone handed to him by his subordinate. He looked at the cut-off corner and saw a hint of purple peeking out from there.

He quickly grabbed a flashlight and shone it on. "The skin is delicate, it doesn't bleed in light, and the color is rich and even—this is top-grade Imperial Purple!"

"This could make at least three bracelets, worth approximately half a million US dollars!"

Upon hearing this, Shen Qingshan, Lovsky, and Sudan all looked at Chen An with surprise, not expecting that he would pick out such a jadeite as Imperial Purple on his first try!

Was it just good luck, or did they really figure it out?

"Mr. Chen, how did you figure that out?" Martin asked curiously.

Chen An smiled slightly, "I'm sorry I can't say, after all, it's my specialty."

Martin nodded. "I understand, but could you assess the value of the remaining two rough stones? I'd like to see them."

Upon hearing this, Chen An knew that the other party thought it was just luck and wanted to verify it again, so he said, "These two rough stones are worth about ten thousand to one hundred thousand US dollars, not too good."

"Take it and cut it up to see," Martin said.

Soon his men returned, and their conclusion was that one piece was worth $20,000 and the other was worth $40,000, which was pretty much what Chen An had said!

"Mr. Chen, your skills are amazing. I'm willing to cooperate with you. I trust you with the jewelry I have." Martin was completely convinced.

"Then let's talk about the upcoming profits," Shen Qingshan said, and the surroundings fell silent for a moment. "Without the tariffs, our profits can double, and we can make about one hundred million to one billion US dollars a year."

"Wow! What a fascinating number!" Lovesky exclaimed.

"After deducting some expenses, we can expect to have around 80 million to 800 million US dollars left, depending on your shipping speed and my sales capabilities, Chen An," Shen Qingshan said, looking at Chen An.

Chen An laughed and said, "I can bring as many as you have."

"Really, my friend!" Sultan asked.

"Yes, that's right." Chen An nodded. With long-distance transportation capabilities, wouldn't they be able to transport as much as they wanted? It was just for show.

After hearing this, Shen Qingshan said, "That's great. Since you've contributed a lot, Chen An, the profits will be split equally among the four of you, 70% each, and I'll take 30%. Is that alright?"

"Of course, if your transportation capacity can't keep up, the profit-sharing ratio will have to change," Shen Qingshan added.

"That's natural," Chen An nodded.

"I'm OK."

"I have no problem with that either, it's perfectly reasonable."

"Can."

Lovsky, Sudan, and Martin nodded in agreement. They immediately calculated that even if Chen An received more than 10%, he would still earn more than before, so why not?

"Haha, then it's a pleasure to cooperate." Chen An smiled faintly, and the four of them clinked glasses to signify their formal cooperation.

Chen An also obtained the contact information of the three people for future communication.

The three were responsible for providing the goods; he was responsible for transporting them into the United States, and Shen Qingshan used the distribution channels to sell them, thus completing the entire industrial chain!

"Now that things have been settled, we'll take our leave and go back to prepare," Martin said, slowly rising to his feet.

"Okay, take care."

Soon the three left the living room, leaving only Shen Qingshan and Chen An.

"You really impress me; you even have the ability to identify raw stones," Shen Qingshan said.

"I learned this skill out of interest before, and I never thought it would come in handy," Chen An said, raising his wrist to check the time.

"It's getting late, I should go now."

"Okay, I hope our collaboration goes smoothly. Are you sure your route is okay?"

Chen An waved his hand, "No problem, you can keep an eye on things from here on out."

He then led Emily outside to the helipad, boarded the helicopter, and waved to Shen Tao in the distance, saying, "Let's go!"

"Okay, Brother Chen An, I'll come visit you sometime," Shen Tao said.

Then he watched as the helicopter slowly rose into the sky and flew away into the distance until it became a black dot.

at the same time.

Inside a private room of a bar in Los Angeles, a dozen or so figures were gathered. They were all dark-skinned, with sunken eyes, and exuded a fierce aura.

"Green, what's the situation here? How's the wording going about our group's planned drug sale?"

Green, who was the middleman left in Los Angeles for drug lord Matteo Coca, hesitated after hearing this. "Voltre, the Fandi family now dominates all the bars and other gray and black businesses in Los Angeles. Nobody dares to sell drugs on their turf."

"Furthermore, Hydra has close ties with them, so no one dares to approach us, saying they don't want to end up like the Kree family."

"Without these big buyers and fixed locations, searching for buyers everywhere is inefficient and could also lead to being caught by the police."
