Chapter 14: The Story
Although Meng Zitao didn't care too much about whether the ability could gamble on the stone, it was difficult for him to accept the uncontrolled influx of aura into the dantian, and he might not be able to retreat when he encountered half of the gambling wool in the future.
Moreover, in the antique industry, not only jade is considered jade, what if you come into contact with other jade raw materials?
So, he had to figure it out.
Seeing Meng Zitao walking in with a piece of jadeite material, Wang Menghan asked strangely: "Brother Meng, where did you get a piece of jadeite material, I think it seems to be a hibiscus seed, such a large piece, at least about 100,000, do you go to gamble on stones?"
Meng Zitao smiled and said, "I really guessed it right for you, this is indeed what I got from gambling on stones just now." ”
"Xiao Meng, have you gone to gamble on stones?"
As soon as Meng Zitao's words fell, he saw Wang Zhixuan walking in from outside the door with a slight smell of alcohol.
Seeing that Wang Zhixuan's expression was a little uncertain, Meng Zitao remembered that Cheng Qiheng seemed to have mentioned it before, Wang Zhixuan didn't like the gambling industry, and felt that the smell of copper in this industry was too strong. Especially for gambling stones, there seems to be a great prejudice.
To be honest, Meng Zitao also felt that the gambling stone industry was indeed a bit crazy, isn't there an old saying that madmen buy, madmen sell, and madmen are waiting.
Especially in recent years, after the jadeite market has risen sharply, this phenomenon is particularly serious. There are many people who enter this industry with the idea of getting rich overnight, which makes the chaos in the gambling industry even more serious.
Although the gambling stone industry is very deep, Meng Zitao has no prejudice against it, and feels that it is nothing more than a tool to make money.
However, since Wang Zhixuan doesn't like gambling stones, and he has no idea of stepping into this industry now, of course he has to explain things in his favor, so he processed the matter a little and repeated it again.
In the end, he scratched his head and said: "Actually, if Zhu Junda wasn't there at that time, I really wouldn't have bought that piece of wool, fortunately, I was lucky, otherwise I would definitely feel sorry for my money." ”
Wang Zhixuan's face returned to normal, and he snorted coldly: "You are just too young, even if you don't agree, what if you don't agree, can you still have a piece of meat?"
When Wang Menghan heard this, he retorted: "Dad, what you said is not right, others have bullied Brother Meng's head, how can you retreat at this time!"
Wang Zhixuan said: "So, you are still too young, the money is your own, and if you lose it, can he still have less hair?" Besides, I don't mean that you have to retreat at any time, but it is unwise to fight with others in areas that you are not good at!"
Meng Zitao took over and said: "Uncle Wang is right, I was really too impulsive just now, and I must pay more attention to this aspect in the future." ”
Wang Zhixuan nodded, and looked at the jade material in Meng Zitao's hand, Meng Zitao hurriedly put the jade on the table and asked Wang Zhixuan to appreciate it.
After Wang Zhixuan took a closer look, Meng Zitao spoke: "Didn't you want to find a piece of jadeite to carve the statue of Guanyin, do you think this piece of jadeite is suitable?"
Wang Zhixuan smiled and said, "This piece of jadeite is indeed very suitable, and it doesn't need to change much at all in terms of shape." ”
Speaking of this, he pondered for a moment and said, "In this way, I will give you 130,000." ”
Meng Zitao waved his hand again and again: "Uncle Wang, you have given too much......
"Do you think I have too much money?"
Wang Zhixuan interrupted him with a smile and said: "You must know that it is not easy to find a suitable material for something like a statue, and in the process of production, some parts are generally removed for the sake of artistic image. Like yours, this piece of jadeite material, the part removed is relatively small, which will undoubtedly save me money, if you really want to calculate it, in fact, I still earned. ”
Seeing that Meng Zitao still wanted to say more, Wang Zhixuan waved his hand and set the price. Immediately, he transferred money to Meng Zitao's bank card. Meng Zitao could only smile bitterly at this.
Wang Zhixuan drank a lot of wine at noon, and after a while, there was sleepiness on his face, so Meng Zitao offered his farewell.
Before leaving, Wang Zhixuan reminded again: "Xiao Meng, you must be careful in the gambling industry!"
Wang Zhixuan did not say that Meng Zitao was forbidden to gamble on stones, because he knew that it was useless for him to prohibit this kind of thing, and the key was to see Meng Zitao's own intentions. And what if you have to gamble?
Meng Zitao nodded again and again: "Uncle Wang, don't worry, I really have no intention of studying gambling stones." ”
"Don't blame me for being verbose, a friend of mine from the past is a lesson from the past......"
Wang Zhixuan told his friend's story with some sadness.
Wang Zhixuan's friend is named Ning Xingxue, five years ago, he was a big boss at the level of 10 million, he likes antiques, it is the kind of pure like. By chance, he and Wang Zhixuan met, and because they had a common hobby, they slowly became friends.
The change happened three years ago, once, Ning Xingxue went to Yunnan Tengchong for a trip and came into contact with gambling stones. Originally, he didn't have the concept of gambling on stones at all, but his friends told him that it was rare to come here, and if he didn't gamble on stones, wouldn't it be a trip in vain?
Ning Xingxue thought about it, so he casually found a piece of wool for 30,000 yuan to play with at a stall, but he didn't expect to open a piece of old pit glass worth 6 million.
Ning Xingxue was very excited, he said to his friend, don't look at his net worth of tens of millions, but it is really not easy to make money, and he is an entity, at most only twenty or thirty percent of the profit, but he didn't expect that today, all of a sudden, there will be two hundred times the profit.
Ning Xingxue saw that the money of jade gambling stones was so easy to make, so he wanted to continue in the jade gambling stone industry, and then bought a lot of wool through his friend's introduction.
There is an old saying about gambling stones, called ten bets and nine losses, not to mention that Ning Xingxue, a person who gambles on stones by luck, although there are ups and downs, but there are many collapses and few rises. After a while, he not only lost the six million he had gambled on, but also lost about two or three million.
Ning Xingxue's friend saw that there was something wrong with this posture, so he persuaded him to stop gambling and go back to his hometown. But by this time he was already deeply involved, and he just didn't listen. His friend knew that if this continued, he would definitely lose all his money, and felt that this matter had something to do with him, so he took advantage of the favor and asked those people before not to sell him wool.
However, Ning Xingxue was determined to gamble on stones, and the people introduced by his friends couldn't buy wool, so they went to buy them elsewhere. But when others saw that he was a living person, how could they sell him wool cheaply, all because he was wronged, and the wool sold to him was extremely rubbish. It is not difficult to guess what results can be solved with wool like this.
So, within a few months, Ning Xingxue lost all the money in his family, sold his car, sold his house, borrowed money, and then borrowed usury to gamble on stones. During this period, his family did not listen to his persuasion, and finally his parents broke off relations with him, and his wife divorced him and left with the children.
"What happened to him in the end?" Meng Zitao asked.
It is said that he was penniless and therefore lived on the streets. Hey......"
Wang Zhixuan sighed and said, "He is a good face, if you give me a call, what's the matter, I will also help!"
Hearing this, Meng Zitao understood that Wang Zhixuan had prejudices against gambling stones, and it was probably because of this incident.
At this time, Wang Menghan opened his mouth and said: "Forget it, Dad, it's not me who says, just like him, even if you help, he may not be able to get rid of the gambling stone." ”
Wang Zhixuan opened his mouth and swallowed back the words that came to his mouth, because he had indeed heard that Ning Xingxue had a few friends who gave him tens of thousands of yuan, but the final result was useless wool.
After being silent for a moment, Wang Zhixuan said to Meng Zitao earnestly: "Xiao Meng, I'm not saying that you must not touch this industry, but before that, you must think about whether you have enough control to resist the temptation of money." ”
Meng Zitao solemnly said that he understood. Speaking of which, if he hadn't gotten the ability before, he suddenly had such a surge as today, he really might have behaved like Wang Zhixuan's friend, after all, he was an ordinary person with the dream of making a fortune in his heart, and in the face of such an easy opportunity to make money, it was still very likely that he would fall into it.
After coming out of Wang Zhixuan, Meng Zitao went straight to the hospital, ready to tell his parents the good news.
In fact, he was originally going to delay for some time, and after he resigned from the company and made a difference in the antique industry, he would explain the truth to his parents.
It's just that his family still owes foreign debts, so it's a bit inappropriate to do so, otherwise it's too bad to spread out.
When he arrived at the hospital, Meng Zitao secretly told his parents about the matter.
Meng Shuliang and his wife were shocked when they heard it, as if it was a fantasy, and they repeatedly confirmed that they still didn't believe it, and rushed to the bank outside the hospital to check the balance on the bank card, and they believed it.
On the way back to the hospital, Meng Shuliang asked with a serious face, what the hell is going on.
Because he knew that his father didn't like anything related to gambling the most in his life, Meng Zitao hurriedly copied what he had told Wang Zhixuan before.
Hearing that this was the case, Meng Shuliang said: "Xiaotao, you are an adult, I don't want to say more, just to remind you, things related to gambling, money is really fast, but losing money is also fast, do you know?"
Meng Zitao said that he would definitely pay attention, and then said: "Dad, when you are discharged from the hospital, stay at home, don't worry about money." ”
Meng Shuliang shook his head and said with a smile: "How much money do you have, you still have to pay off your debts, and you will have to get married and have children in the future, do you think you have to spend this money?"
Meng Zitao said, "Won't I make money?"
Meng Shuliang sneered: "You can make a few dollars a year in the company, and you still think you can often pick up leaks!"
"I just can pick up leaks a lot!"
Meng Zitao muttered in his heart, thinking, let's wait until I make a lot of money in the future......
