Chapter 403: Doubao (Supplement 4.25)

"This gentleman, looking at your appearance, you should be a newcomer to the jewelry and jade industry. Xu was a little anxious when he saw Ah San's appearance, or it was the actions of Jia Rudao and Ah San at the birthday banquet, which really seemed a little abrupt, and the young man who was accosted by Ah San was a little funny and greeted Ah San.

It was only at this time that Jia Nidao got rid of the appearance of all beings watching everyone at the birthday banquet, and turned to look at the man next to Ah San, a young man in his twenties and nearly thirty years old.

Jia Rudao couldn't help but blush. I don't know what Ah San and the other party are talking about, it seems that the other party can see Ah San's strangeness at a glance, but Ah San is very indifferent, and responded with a smile: "Hehe, my brother is really good eyesight, I can see at a glance that I am a novice in the jewelry and jade industry!"

"So, brother, are you really right?" the other party seemed to be very happy that he could say it right, and said with a smile, "Actually, I don't like banquets or anything like that, but this time I came here to see it for a long time." ”

"Well, buddy, you're a little unkind. Ah San hurriedly became more familiar with the tone and title of his speech, and said: "It turned out that we were fooling, but we came here from other places, are you a little discriminatory against us like this?"

"How can you. The other party replied. "I did look at the two of you a little bit. It's just that I don't really participate in this kind of banquet myself, and I don't usually see many people......" At the end, the young man on the other side laughed a little heartlessly.

Perhaps, in his mind, as long as he is a young person, he should be a novice in the jewelry and jade industry, right?

Just as Jia Yidao was thinking about this, the other party explained: "My father is a member of the jewelry council here, so I have seen most of the more famous people in the industry, even if it is some young people around them, I can be regarded as very familiar, but I haven't seen the two of them much." ”

"It's all said, we are from other places, is Zhejiang so big, can you know all the young people in the industry?" Ah San said a little angrily.

"Aren't we now acquainted?" the other party stretched out his hand and said, "My surname is Yang, and my single name is a sail word, the sail of a sailboat." Speaking of which, it has something to do with today's birthday star, both of whom are surnamed Yang. I don't know what the names of the two gentlemen are?"

The words were very simple, but they invisibly narrowed the distance with Ah San and Jia Nidao. Ah San was also stunned, and seemed to be a little unconvinced, just like he could meet the "Yang" family by casually accosting him. After introducing each other, Yang Fan looked at Jia Yidao with some curiosity.

"What, is there something wrong with what I'm wearing?" Jia Rudao wondered.

"Hehe, that's not true. Yang Fan said with a smile, "In the past two days, I just heard that there is a 'green, fat, red and thin' jade shop on the side of the sea, and the standard of the things in it is very high." Also, I heard that the owner of the shop had a very strange name. It's actually called 'Jia Rudao', could it be you, brother?"

Jia Nidao and Ah San glanced at each other, Jia Nidao touched his nose and said, "It's really me." ”

"That's a big congratulations. The smile on Yang Fan's face was very natural, as if it was from the heart, "The reputation of this store is very good, I have heard the wind here in Lin'an." If it weren't for the recent birthday banquet of Old Man Yang, I wouldn't have been able to say it, so I would have gone to Linhai by myself to have a look. ”

"Oh, Brother Yang is also a person who likes jade?" Jia Nidao asked. For young people, especially young people like Yang Fan who can appear at Old Man Yang's birthday banquet, those who like jade, Jia Rudao has a lot of good feelings. I can't say, this is Jia Rudao's love house and Wu who like jade.

"It's okay. Yang Fan pondered for a moment and said, "Specifically, in fact, I am also interested in gambling stones, whether it is gambling on jadeite, or gambling on bloodstone or the like, it is a bit of a doorway." However, compared to Brother Jia's achievements, I am a little dwarfed. ”

"That's not good either. Jia Rudao said, "In terms of Brother Yang's conversation, it will not be easy to come to the attainments of gambling stones." ”

"Hehe, don't talk about this...... Yang Fan changed the topic and said: "I haven't opened my own store yet, and I don't have any real net worth, most of them are gambling on one piece after another, followed by one after another gambling collapse, anyway, I just don't have the life to gamble all the time." It's not like it's the same as Brother Jia, after a few months of gambling, it's a jade shop above the standard......" After such a compliment, Yang Fan changed his words, "However, when I just came in just now, I saw several friends who participated in the 'Doubao' on the register at the door with great interest, some of them are familiar and some are unfamiliar, but there is a relatively unfamiliar surname on it that is the word 'Jia', is it Brother Jia?"

"That's right, it's Xiao Jia. Jia Rudao hadn't answered yet, and Ah San said, "Then I wrote it, I think, since it's all here, you should also join in the fun, right?"

"The two of you are really good Yaxing. Yang Fan looked at Jia Yidao and Ah San's eyes, and suddenly became a little expectant, and asked in a low voice. "Could it be that Brother Jia brought the best jade rough stone with him?"

"What do you say?" Jia Rudao's heart moved, and he said secretly, finally getting to the point. Ah San and Yang Fan's accosting, isn't it just for such news. Of course, Jia Rudao is very appreciative of Ah San's accosting at the birthday banquet and choosing a person who can clearly know the doorway of "Doubao" in it. While asking, he also handed a good look to Ah San,

Ah San also smiled understandingly, and looked at Yang Fan with some expectation.

However, Yang Fan's reaction made Jia Yidao and Ah San suddenly feel a burst of bitterness. "Haven't Brother Jia heard of 'Doubao'?" that tone, that expression, seemed to have seen something strange.

"Not really. Ah San hurriedly explained, "We just don't understand the rules on Lin'an's side." After speaking, he still looked like an old god was there, Jia Rudao pondered, it was a pity that Ah San didn't go to be a god stick at this time.

"I see. Hearing this, Yang Fan nodded, as if he was thinking deeply, and then asked, "So, Brother Jia also brought the jade rough stone here?"

When Jia Rudao heard this, he shook his head: Not to mention the jade rough, it is the general bloodstone and other "gambling stones" and other things, Jia Rudao didn't bring anything, if there was really anything, it was the piece of mud inkstone that Ah San had just received when he was close to noon.

If it is an ordinary thing, Jia Rudao and Ah San will naturally choose to store it directly in the hotel here in Lin'an, but Ah San is very fond of the two pieces of porcelain that he just received, and he can't put it down for almost a moment.

Therefore, Jia Rudao and Ah San also took their respective things with them.

"Jadeite rough, I didn't bring it with me. Jia Rudao explained, feeling that Yang Fan has been emphasizing the need to bring "jade rough" over, Jia Rudao pondered, this "Doubao" should be similar to the jewelry and jade competition he usually sees, at least, literally, that's what it means. So, subconsciously, Jia Rudao couldn't help but add, "However, I brought some other things here." It's just that Ah San mentioned my name just now and suggested that I participate in the 'Doubao', which was also a temporary decision, and until now, I still don't understand how the 'Doubao' is carried out, and how the winner is decided?"

"Yes. Ah San said. "Originally, I thought that this 'Doubao' was the same as the rules on our side, so I didn't pay much attention to it, and I thought that I was here to celebrate my birthday anyway, so I naturally wanted to have a good time. However, now that we hear Brother Yang say this, we feel that there seems to be something else in this. If you win or lose, what will happen to you?"

Speaking of this, Ah San also sighed deliberately and said, "It seems that what I did just now was a little too reckless! I don't know if there will be an embarrassing scene between the two of us later......"

"Hehe, not really. Yang Fan said with a smile, "Similar 'Doubao' is mainly popular in Guangdong, and we will only hold it a few times when we encounter some lively events in Lin'an." I still remember the last time 'Doubao' appeared more than a year ago, after the jewelry exhibition in the provincial capital. The people on our side have produced some treasures in the bloodstone, so they held a folk treasure fight, and the specifications are not very high. However, it is better than the excitement. Moreover, all the people who came to participate in the 'Doubao' were self-sufficient. The whole scene is judged by several well-known and authoritative experts, and the winner is finally determined by the actual auction price, and the winner can also get all the participation fees paid by the participants in advance. ”

"Isn't this similar to an underground gambling stone?" Jia Rudao listened, listened, but a little understood. When you dare to participate in 'Doubao', you also need to pay a certain entry fee. Moreover, all the entry fees will also be taken by the final winner.

"The same cannot be said. Yang Fan obviously also knew about the underground gambling stone, so he couldn't help but say, "Let's just say that it was the 'Doubao' last time." First in the type, not necessarily, some are porcelain, some are calligraphy and painting, of course, this has a certain relationship with the fact that the treasure is folk, but the most mainstream is still based on bloodstone. Among them, there is a Tibetan friend who won because of bloodstone and finally won a prize of 200,000 yuan! Secondly, unlike the underground gambling stone, in the end, almost all the entries will also be taken away by the winner, but there is no such rule in the 'fighting treasure' here. ”

"Hehe, that's a good rule. Jia Rudao muttered to himself. If it is really the same as the underground gambling stone, it is really not suitable to hold a "treasure fight" in a place like a birthday banquet.

"This time tonight, it was held because of the initiative of several friends of Mr. Yang. Overall, it can be regarded as a private event. As long as you think that the treasures in your hands are worth more than one million and are limited to jewelry and jade, you can participate. In addition, once you participate, even if you agree to start the auction at the reserve price of 1 million, if someone bids on the spot, and it is 1 million, then you can sell the transaction. This is also the link before 'Doubao', which is called 'Offering Treasure'. Yang Fan explained. Afterwards, he took a sip of red wine. It seems that he is reminiscing about the taste of red wine in the wine glass, or he is just lamenting what he just said.

"Unfortunately, I don't have anything on hand that will be ready for time. If not, you can really participate in such an event. Yang Fan said, "If your thing gets a higher price at the auction, then, after the auction is over, the three treasures that are sold at the highest price will be selected on the spot, namely gold, silver, and bronze awards, and additional bonuses, which are also 300,000, 200,000, and 100,000 respectively." ”

"There is still a bonus to be won?" Ah San said curiously.

"That's!" Yang Fan nodded, "These bonuses were all raised in advance by a few of Old Man Yang's friends, and they can be regarded as adding excitement to the birthday celebration of old friends." ”

"The bonus of 600,000 yuan is really generous. Ah San said with a smile. If it's in other industries, maybe 600,000, which is really good. However, for the antique industry, if you really want to talk about those who collect everyone, hundreds of thousands of funds, it is also in line with the reason that everyone celebrates the birthday of Mr. Yang.

Moreover, the price of a treasure is more than one million, and you can receive a bonus from several old experts of the organizer, so as to make your own things out of the limelight, whether it is for this thing, or your own fame, it is also a good publicity, right?

"I heard Brother Yang just said that there are really a lot of people who come to participate in the 'Doubao', if it is, just for the 600,000 bonus, I'm afraid it won't be so attractive, right?" Jia Rudao is more than Ah San thought, although Yang Fan did say some basic information about "Doubao", but in the specific details, there are still many inappropriateness.

Just like these people who participate in the "Doubao", they will definitely not just for such a bonus, but on the "Doubao", will there be a certain number of people who come to celebrate their birthdays to participate in the auction of each item, or is it that these things participating in the "Doubao" are not the forces of all parties to show their collection in Lin'an?

"This is natural, if it's just such a gold award of 300,000 yuan, with your brother Jia's family background, will you care?" Yang Fan also looked at Jia Nidao with some condescension, and then, he deliberately looked back and forth on Jia Nidao's body, as if he was looking for something.

"Could it be that this 'Doubao' has anything to do with Xiao Jia's appearance?" Ah San couldn't help teasing on the side, "I said Brother Yang, don't tell me that you have that special preference." ”

"Ah San, you laughed. Yang Fan smiled wryly and said, "However, what you said earlier is really not wrong." Not to mention that it has something to do with Brother Jia's appearance, but it is also related to someone's appearance. ”

"Oh?" At this time, even Jia Yidao became curious.

"Don't you two really know this reason?" Yang Fan looked at Jia Yidao and Ah San, and seemed to be really stunned when he spoke, and couldn't help but be surprised, "If you don't know, then why are you involved in the 'Doubao' link, ah...... You two, you guys are really going for the bonus, right?"

It seems that it is for the bonus of 300,000 yuan, and at the birthday banquet of an old man, the competition makes Yang Fan in front of him look very disdainful. Especially Yang Fan knows how much Jia Yidao's "green, fat, red and thin" is worth.

If it is said that it is a down-and-out young man, with such a collection worth more than one million in hand, there is no other way to find it, and if you want to attach the connections of "Shi Zhixuan" to the birthday banquet of Old Man Yang, it is quite reasonable. However, for Jia Yidao's identity, it is a little surprising.

If someone present, such as Jia Yidao, who has the best jade jewelry, and comes to participate in the "Doubao" with a bracelet like glass imperial green, it will not be here to join in the fun, but to show off here.

Therefore, Yang Fan's exaggerated and weird eyes made Jia Yidao feel as if he was a little uncomfortable, so he could only smile bitterly and said: "I really don't know, if I had known, I wouldn't have come to ask you Brother Yang at this time." ”

Saying that, Jia Rudao also glanced at Ah San with annoyance. If it weren't for Ah San's limelight when he entered the door over there, how could there be such a thing as now?

"Hehe, don't blame me for this. Ah San pushed himself aside and said, "Isn't this also for Xiao Jia's sake." Saying that, Ah San looked at Yang Fan with some amusement, and suddenly asked, "Brother Yang, are the people who came to participate in the 'Doubao' this time very young?"

"yes. Yang Fan nodded very naturally.

"That's it. Ah San's eyes suddenly lit up, and he patted Jia Yidao's shoulder instead, and said, "Xiao Jia, don't say that I don't help you as a brother, this time, I helped you 'ruthlessly' once." ”

"What are you talking about, how can you help me?" Although the word "ruthless", Ah San accentuated his voice, Jia Rudao didn't care, at least judging from Ah San's expression, he was still very optimistic. In Jia Rudao's thoughts, I'm afraid Ah San understands a little why many people come to participate in the purpose of "Doubao".

"I said I helped you, and I helped you, and I didn't believe it. Ah San was a little scoundrel, he knew it, but he didn't say it, as if he just wanted to see Jia Yidao in a hurry.

"Hehe, you don't say yes, right?" Jia Yidao suddenly glanced at Ah San strangely, and said a little lightly, "Since you don't tell me, then when the 'Doubao' starts, it's up to you to go." Anyway, I didn't bring anything with me. After speaking, he also put on a look that nothing was about me, and Ah San stared straight into the eyes.

And Yang Fan on the side, after seeing the conversation between Ah San and Jia Yidao, also believed it in his heart that the two people in front of him really didn't know the biggest purpose of tonight's "Doubao" in advance. Following Jia Rudao's words, Yang Fan said: "Brother Jia, if you really don't want to participate, it's not impossible." ”

"Oh, really?" Jia Rudao was surprised, "I'll just say, how can a self-formed 'Doubao' club stipulate that people who have signed up must participate?"

"Hehe, this one might be. At this time, Ah San said on the side, "If I am not mistaken, if you don't want to participate in 'Doubao' temporarily, as long as you think that your things are less than a million in price when you call your name, it is nothing more than a blank eye and some jokes from everyone." ”

After saying this, Jia Rudao's face darkened a little in an instant.

"I said Ah San, you all know 'Doubao', did you mean it just now?" Jia Rudao couldn't help but raise his voice a little.

"That's right. Ah San also nodded and said, "At the beginning, I wasn't sure about it." However, at this point, after Brother Yang's explanation, I was wondering, how should you thank me at that time?...... Do you say, Brother Yang?"

When he said this, Ah San winked at Yang Fan, and Yang Fan also looked at Jia Yidao again. While watching, he nodded: "Yes, it's pretty good." ”

It made Jia seem to be confused.

However, just when Jia Yidao felt that he didn't want to care about Ah San and Yang Fan, Yang Fan explained directly: "Most of the people who participated in 'Doubao' tonight are young people, in fact, there is one most important reason, that is, the daughter of Old Man Yang, Yang Siyi." ”

"Miss Yang?" Jia Yidao's mind involuntarily conjured up the image of a woman with wheat-colored skin but full of the temptation of red lips.

"However, this is private news, and it's not good for the two of you to put it directly on the table. Yang Fan said, "As Ah San guessed, many people are coming for Miss Yang." People are waiting to be married, and they are also the meat of Old Man Yang's heart and treasure. With the Yang family's property, status and Miss Yang's own outstanding beauty, there have been many young heroes in Lin'an in the past few years. What do you think, at this old man Yang's birthday banquet, how can these guys with excessive hormone secretion let go?"

"That's a bit of a thing. Jia Rudao muttered.

"Hey, Xiao Jia. You should be thanking me now, right?" said Ah San with a grin.

"Thank you for being a big head. Jia Rudao glared at Ah San speechlessly, and said, "You should get me a collection worth more than one million first, so that I can participate." ”

"Uh, two, listen to me......" Yang Fan looked at Jia Yidao and Ah San helplessly, and said, "Could it be that the two of you really didn't prepare anything at all, so you directly signed the name of the 'Doubao' on the roster?"

"yes. Jia Rudao nodded.

"yes. Ah San also nodded, but what was slightly better than Jia Rudao was that Ah San also deliberately explained, "It's just, it's not necessarily like that." We brought a few things with us, but at the time, we didn't expect that only 'jewelry and jade' collectibles could come to Doubao, so we had to blame ourselves for not figuring out the rules. ”

Of course, Ah San said so, as for believing it or not, that's Yang Fan's own business. You must know that before Yang Fan's explanation, Ah San and Jia Yidao didn't know what this "Doubao" was......

Looking at Yang Fan's silence, he looked very speechless for Jia Nidao and Ah San, and then looked at Ah San and shrugged his shoulders directly, indicating that he couldn't do anything about it, Jia Nidao's mind began to ponder, should it be time to say that his things are not enough million, and give up directly?

In this way, not to mention the shame, what Jia Rudao wants to show favor to Mr. Yang at the birthday banquet is not only to repay Yang Siyi's favor, but also to strive for the purpose of cooperation between "Green, Fat, Red and Thin" and "Shi Zhixuan", which is completely no chance.

Suddenly, it seemed that he felt the existence of the mud inkstone in his backpack and Ah San's place, and Jia Rudao's face was still a little worried, but in an instant, it became a lot more relaxed!
