Chapter 265: Gambling Stones

Zhou Fei sighed, he knew who the person who jumped at the back of the immortal jumped, and it didn't matter if he didn't answer. "Boss Chen, I know that you are different from other booksellers, otherwise you wouldn't have told me so much, but please see that I am so sincere, can you reconsider cooperating with us?"

Chen Yan still shook his head, "I can't do anything, of course I also appreciate the coffee you invited me to drink." With that, he took his coat and got up and left.

Zhou Fei leaned back in the soft chair and watched him leave. He sat with his chin in his hands and sat for a while before leaving. returned to his residence, Guo Duo didn't know when he would go home. He was the key to Zhou Fei's house, so when he saw him lock the door, he opened the door directly and came in, he lay on the bed and waited for him to come back, almost falling asleep waiting.

"Xiao Duo'er, Xiao Duo'er......" He gently pushed him, Guo Duo woke up slowly, stretched his waist, rubbed his eyes and said, "Where have you been, why are you only coming back now?"

"I'm busy, why did you come all of a sudden. He asked puzzled, Guo Duo smiled and lay on his back intimately, explaining: "I'm here to tell you that the problem with the red jade bookmark has nothing to do with that Xu Qinghe." ”

The corners of his mouth twitched, and he said, "I know." ”

"Huh, how did you know?" Guo Duo originally thought that he had brought him some useful news, but he didn't expect that he already knew. The original excitement was suddenly snubbed, and this time he was not able to help him much. Zhou Fei held his hand, looked at the ceiling and said melancholy: "It was Brother Qingliu who asked Liu Duchao to tell me, otherwise I am really not sure." ”

"Xu Qingliu?" Guo Duoer read his name again, and his voice was inexplicably a little shy, and Zhou Fei smiled evilly, "Yes, it's the Xu Qingliu you like!"

"You hate itβ€”" Guo Duoer nudged him, telling him not to make fun of him. The youngest daughter's mind should not be guessed. Later, Guo Duoer asked him what he wanted to do next, he lay on the bed weakly, looked at him sideways, and said that he didn't know, probably taking one step at a time. His brows were tightly furrowed, he had been like this for a long time, Guo Duo couldn't bear him like this, but he really didn't have the ability to share it for him.

"By the way, I recently found an interesting place, I'll take you there, okay? Just relax, Guo Duo took his hand excitedly, Zhou Fei was reluctant to go out, after all, it was almost dark outside, and he didn't know when he would be able to go back when he went out to play.

After walking for a while, Guo Duo took him into an alley, and then turned a few more intersections. The surroundings slowly darkened, Zhou Fei pulled his hand, unwilling to continue walking, and asked questioningly, "Where are you going to take me?"

As soon as they came out, they walked a few intersections, but they hadn't arrived yet, and they were getting more and more remote, although they knew that Guo Duo would naturally not harm him, but he had some other worries.

"It's fine. He said confidently, Zhou Fei shook his head, and followed him to the place he said. When he arrived at the destination, it was really an eye-opener for Zhou Fei, this was actually a raw jade sales field!

The people here are dressed plainly, and there are several rough stones of different sizes on each stall, Zhou Fei asked in surprise: "Xiao Duo'er, how did you find this place?" The jade market in Shanghai has not been opened, these people have actually been attracted to Shanghai by a mysterious force recently, and since the jade market here has not been opened, they have opened a small market in this remote place.

However, according to Guo Duoer, the small market here has recently been opened, and it is only for a short time. Zhou Fei was very happy to be able to encounter such an opportunity to purchase the closest rough stones, and his smile slowly bloomed, seeing that he finally stopped frowning, Guo Duo was happy from the bottom of his heart.

As a jade connoisseur, of course, I am happy to see so many raw jade, and now this rough stone market in front of me can also be called the gambling stone market, because the stone purchased here is not allowed to be opened regardless of the size, and only after negotiating the price with the seller can you cut the stone to see what it really looks like. If you cut the rough stone and find that there is no jade in it, or the quality of the jade is very poor, you can only choose to accept your fate, this is a gambling stone.

"I took a look, here is mainly jadeite rough, their appearance is wrapped in a layer of weathered stone, the difficulty of gambling on the stone is that there is jadeite under the first knife, maybe there is nothing in the second knife. "That's why it's a gambling stone, no matter how experienced a veteran is, he can't be 100% confident.

"Ah, it's so difficult?" Guo Duo covered his mouth and looked at him in surprise, Zhou Fei squatted down in a stall, holding a stone and looking left and right.

The owner of the stall was an old man who looked like he was in his fifties and sixties, and he still had mud stuck to his trouser legs, and he looked like a farmer, who worked on the farm during the day and came here to sell stones at night. Seeing that Zhou Fei looked very interested, the old man said with a smile: "The little girl is really discerning, this one in your hand must be a good jade." ”

Zhou Fei smiled brightly, put the stone in his palm and threw it twice, and said with a questioning weight: "I think this stone is also quite light, what good jade will it be?"

"You don't understand this!" said the old man said that if you put this rough stone under the light, the jade inside can be seen at a glance, and it is definitely a good stone. Guo Duo squatted down curiously and checked the stone, but in the place where the light was obvious, there was an emerald green color in the gray stone.

"How about Xiao Duo'er, which stone do you fancie?" Zhou Fei tilted his head, dragged his chin with his palm, and looked at him gently. Guo Duo was slightly stunned, waved his hand, and said with some worry: "I don't understand this, it's better for you to choose!"

Zhou Fei smiled and held his wrist, letting his hand close to the stone, feeling the power contained in the stone, he flinched a little, "Ah Li, I really can't do it." ”

He really has no experience, and his family is all engaged in noodle trading, so he doesn't know anything about jade. Zhou Fei got up and looked at the stalls elsewhere, and said, "It's not early, I'm very happy that you brought me here in order to relax me, you chose a stone and gave it to me." ”

His eyes lost the excitement of knowing that this was the rough stone market at the beginning, but he was still grateful to Guo Duo for his kindness. Under his persuasion, Guo Duoer was moved to choose a stone, which was the stone strongly recommended by the old man just now.

When he came back, he kept excitedly holding the rough stone as if he was holding a baby. "If cutting this stone is not as good as you imagined, will you be disappointed?" Zhou Fei asked tentatively, Guo Duo shook his head and said no, after all, he also said, where is the rough stone so easy to buy. A true jadeite is worth a fortune, and the price of a rough stone can vary dramatically.

The two of them went to a nearby shop that cut the rough stone, and they were about to close at this point, but when they closed the door, they happened to meet a new customer, and the boss saw that the stone was not big and did not take much time, so he readily opened it for them.

A knife down, it seems that he is about to see the verdant jade inside, Guo Duo excitedly stretched his neck and looked expectantly, and Zhou Fei looked unusually calm, a knife down, the part that has the jade is the appearance of this wool a little bit, in an instant, the expectation of the mind is disappointed, the light in Guo Duo's eyes dimmed, although it has been prepared that it can not produce any good jade, but when there is really no good jade in this rough stone, it is inevitable to be disappointed.

For this result, Zhou Fei seemed to have expected it a long time ago, looked at his lost appearance, and stepped forward to comfort him: "It's okay, after walking around that pile of stones, what I can summarize is that those rough stones are stones that have been chosen to be excluded again and again, so there are scratches on the surface of those rough stones." ”

It turned out that he was looking forward to this rough market, but when he realized that these stones were leftover stones that had been picked up by others, he lost interest. There are few people who want to come to Shanghai to learn jade, so these traders take the opportunity to make a profit, anyway, gambling on stones is their own choice.

"Since it was picked by someone, what are you asking me to pick it for?" Guo Duo asked puzzled when he hugged the mutilation, these useless stones were as worthless as waste. Zhou Fei patted him on the shoulder and said, "This is a heart, this stone was given to me, you have been worried a lot about my affairs during this time, even if it is not a precious stone, I naturally like it very much." ”
