My first encounter with gambling stones was because of my brother.

My dad died young, and my mom raised me and my brother alone.

My brother is fifteen years older than me, my eldest brother is like a father, and I have a very good relationship with my brother.

My brother is very good, he is a national first-class architect, and he had a construction team of nearly 100 people in Kunming at his most glorious time.

My brother has connections and ability, and many bosses poached him, and my brother finally chose Wang Fugui, a local real estate developer.

In the early 2000s, Boss Wang was just a small boss, with nothing but hundreds of thousands of yuan on hand, but with my brother helping him, he rose rapidly, and I heard that my brother earned him 100 million.

The relationship between our family and Boss Wang's family is also very good.

It happened when I was in my first year of junior high school, and once Boss Wang took our family to travel to Ruili on the border.

In those days, our two families had a great time, riding elephants, going to Shwedagon Pagoda in Yangon and seeing the Emerald Pagoda.

It wasn't until I went back that Boss Wang invited my brother to gamble on stones, saying that Ruili was most famous for gambling stones, and it would be a pity not to play once.

My brother didn't want to go, he felt that gambling stones and gambling were the same, all kinds of harm and no benefit, but it was not good to break Boss Wang's face, so he followed.

There is nothing in this place in Ruili, but there are a lot of stones, and there are places where gambling stones are everywhere.

Boss Wang took us to a very stylish shop on Sister Gambling Stone Street.

Boss Wang is very familiar with the owner of the gambling stone shop, so let my brother pick at will, just tell him about it, and then go to choose the stone with great interest.

My brother looked at the strange-shaped stones, and heard a lot of people talking about some of the stones, saying some jargon, and he was very disdainful.

A broken stone, can you still tell the flowers?

And these stones are very expensive, just a ball size of a stone is tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands.

My mother was terrified when she saw it, and asked my brother not to mess around.

At that time, our family's annual income was 300,000 yuan, which was already a petty bourgeois family, but we still couldn't afford the cost of gambling stones.

My brother was also very hesitant, but Boss Wang's side had already played well, and he cut seven or eight stones in a row, spending nearly 500,000 yuan.

It's just burning money!

My brother was even more disdainful.

But Boss Wang didn't blink his eyes, but just told the master to continue cutting.

When I got to the tenth stone, something big happened.

Even the master who cut thousands of stones was amazed, "Mother, I have never seen such a big emerald in my life." ”

Yes, Boss Wang cut out a piece of emerald, the best in jadeite.

Boss Wang's tense face also smiled, and he immediately ordered his subordinates to wrap red envelopes and set off firecrackers for the employees in the store, and a red envelope was 500 yuan, which was quite generous.

Then he sold the stone for three million to a jeweler in the store who looked at the stone.

My brother was stunned, completely subverting his cognition, he put away his disdainful thoughts, and began to seriously consider the feasibility of gambling stones.

After selling the stones, Boss Wang looked back and saw that my brother was not well, so he asked him what was going on, and my brother smiled bitterly and said that he didn't know much and didn't know how to choose.

As a result, Boss Wang said that he could give my brother a stone if he saw it, but it would cost 150,000 yuan.

My brother was red-eyed at the time, and he was carried away by the scene just now, so he just asked for it without thinking about it, and my mother couldn't stop it.

After paying the money, my brother regretted it a little, if there was nothing in the stone, wouldn't the money be wasted?

But the result of the cut surprised everyone, and inside the stone was a flawless piece of ice blue jade.

I remember that the stone was glowing, it was so beautiful.

As soon as the jade came out, someone immediately offered a high price of 1.5 million yuan at the scene, and my brother sold it on the spot, following the example of Boss Wang, and sent red envelopes to set off firecrackers.

If my brother stops here and uses this money to do some business, our family of three will definitely be able to live happily.

But my brother is under the devil of gambling stones.

After going back, my brother quit his job directly, devoted himself to studying gambling stones, often ran to the border, and every time he came back, he locked himself in his room with a pile of stones to study stones, and made records seriously, which was more serious than my exams.

But from that time on, my brother never opened a good stone again, and Lady Luck never favored him again.

My brother has always lost more and won less, but he doesn't believe in evil, but blames the material for being bad, and the material he buys is getting more and more expensive, not only losing the 1.5 million won by gambling stones, but even mortgaged the real estate certificate behind my mother's back.

That's it, my brother hasn't seen a single green in the stone either.

By the time I went to college, my family was destitute, and my living expenses and tuition fees were all covered by my own part-time job and scholarship.

Later, my mom and my brother had a big fight, and my brother felt guilty and vowed never to gamble on stones again.

I'm very happy, I can earn it again when the money is gone, as long as my brother changes his ways, and the family is safe.

But things didn't work out as expected.

One day my brother told me and my mother that he wanted to return to his old business and work in the construction team, and he needed a sum of money, and my mother and I were very happy, and with my brother's level, it would definitely not be a problem to make a comeback.

The three of us borrowed money everywhere, I borrowed from classmates and friends, my mother borrowed from relatives, and my brother borrowed from those big bosses, and we borrowed a total of 500,000 yuan.

But the next day, my brother was gone.

My mother and I had a sense of foreboding, and sure enough, we received a call from Ruili that afternoon, and my brother had been arrested for murder.

The course of the case is very clear, my brother got into an argument with someone because of a stone, and stabbed someone to death in the process of pushing.

A few days later, the court sentenced my brother to death.

It all happened so suddenly, and the good person was gone.

My mother and I were devastated, and my brother left us with nothing but half a million in debt.

On the seventh day of my brother's first day, I heard that the stone that my brother had taken a fancy to was worth 500,000 yuan, and after cutting it out, it was sold for 10 million......

I began to try to understand what my brother was thinking at the time.

First of all, he must have decided that the stone would be shipped, otherwise it would not be stabbed, and he might have thought that after the gamble, he would wash his hands of money and pay off his debts, so that my mother and I could live a good life and start a small business......

It is undeniable that I was so naïve at that time, and countless examples later told me that everyone who paid for their lives because of gambling stones only had two words in their heads.

Greedy.

The matter is far from over.

My brother borrowed money from many people at that time, including Boss Wang, who threw my brother's IOU in my face, 50,000 yuan.

To be honest, when I knew that Boss Wang only borrowed 50,000 yuan from my brother, my first reaction was to get angry.

My brother earned him 100 million! He borrowed 50,000 yuan from my brother?

Now it's even more excessive, just a month after my brother died, he came to ask for money?

It is natural to repay debts, I know, I will definitely pay back the money, I am angry that Boss Wang is ungrateful, crossing the river and demolishing the bridge.

I was so angry that I quarreled with him on the spot, and even said very scoundrelly that I didn't have a chance to ask for money, or I would give me a few months of grace, and I would pay it back slowly.

But Boss Wang didn't give me a chance at all, and directly told me that he had evidence that my brother had cut corners when he was working before, and although my brother died, he could get me in!

Only give me a three-day deadline.

After finishing speaking, he didn't give me a chance to talk back, and left in a Mercedes Benz.

I was stunned, I didn't expect Boss Wang to have such a hand.

I doubt the authenticity of Boss Wang's words, how can this thing be so simple?

But I don't dare to bet, if Boss Wang really has it, he will get me into the bureau and leave a criminal record, and my life will be ruined!

I suddenly hated my brother very much, if it wasn't for his obsession, if it wasn't for his disregard for me and my mother's life and death, and even as long as he didn't borrow money to gamble that last time, my mother and I would be safe now.

But I didn't despair, and I still had the last glimmer of hope.

Boss Wang has a daughter named Wang Xiyan, it can be said that I grew up with my childhood sweetheart, I think I have always played well with her, and Boss Wang loves her very much, as long as she speaks, Boss Wang will not disobey.

Wang Xiyan was not good-looking and chubby when she was a child, but she has changed in eighteen years in the female college, and now she has grown into a girl at the level of a school flower.

When I found Wang Xiyan, she was smoking on the rooftop of the school with a group of friends, and I knew a lot of these people, all of whom were rich people in the school.

This may be the gathering of likes.

I greeted her, Wang Xiyan was a little surprised to see me, but quickly reacted, I explained to her my intention, that is, I hope her brother can give me some days, I will make money to pay back.

Wang Xiyan agreed, saying that this was a trivial matter, and angrily counted how her father could be like this, comforting me not to be sad, mourning and changing, and encouraging me.

I am very happy, not only because Wang Xiyan agreed to help me, but also because I think Wang Xiyan really regards me as a friend and respects me in front of so many people.

But I knew that she and I had never been all the way, so I said things and left quickly.

But when I walked halfway to the point, I patted my head and found that there was still something I hadn't told Wang Xiyan, so I hurried back, but when I walked to the staircase, I heard Wang Xiyan and others talking.
