Chapter 211: Gambling Stones
Yan Tao didn't know that he had been hated by someone, he took a taxi to Hezhou City, and did not go straight to the train station after getting off, but began to wander around in Hezhou City, although Hezhou is adjacent to Los Angeles, but Yan Tao's understanding of Hezhou is very limited, a total of less than 20 times before and after coming to Hezhou, half of which still regard Hezhou as a transit place, but go to other places.

Yan Tao now wants to expand his career, Hezhou as the capital city, its scale and population are several times that of Los Angeles, and into the transportation hub, there is an airport, in the future to develop externally, Hezhou's geographical advantages and character advantages are much stronger than Los Angeles, so Yan Tao feels that Hezhou will become the center of his career in the future, if the industry is expanded, Yan Tao intends to set up the headquarters in Hezhou.
So this time after returning from the southwest, Yan Tao planned to spend a day in Hezhou, the purpose was to observe and understand the business atmosphere and character style of Hezhou.
Yan Tao first walked a few more famous commercial streets, and then took the bus to enjoy the scenery along the road at will, after three or four stops, Yan Tao got off again, walked aimlessly on the street, and occasionally admired the beautiful women passing by.
As he was walking, he found that the building in front of him had some ancient features, so Yan Tao walked to the building very casually, took a closer look, and found that this was originally an antique market, and the whole street was full of all kinds of antiques, calligraphy and paintings, jade jewelry, and various handicrafts.
Yan Tao knows very little about antiques and is not very interested. This may have something to do with his age and experience, he used to be busy playing games, reading novels, and after getting the ring, he was busy making money and practicing. Antiques were a whole world away from him to him.
But walking into this antique market today, Yan Tao was attracted by the lively atmosphere here and all kinds of strange antique utensils.
However, Yan Tao also knows that he doesn't know anything about this industry, and he can't tell the truth of these things in front of him, he only feels that some of them are simple and atmospheric, and some are small and exquisite, which is very ornamental. However, some antique dealers who set up small stalls on the outskirts of the city began to boast to Yan Tao about how old their things were, telling a bizarre and vivid story to attract Yan Tao to buy them.
Although he doesn't know how to appreciate antiques, he understands the complexity of people's hearts. His mind was no less than that of a middle-aged man, and one look at these stall vendors knew that they were fooling themselves as if they were a newcomer.
Yan Tao continued to walk and walked to a building in front of him, which was also in the antique market, which was also in the shape of an ancient building, but as soon as Yan Tao walked, he found that it looked like a high-end department store, which turned out to be a place dedicated to selling jade.
There are no less than 100 counters here, large and small, with all kinds of jade and jade.
Yan Tao wanted to buy a jade bracelet for his mother, but after looking at it, he found that the jade bracelets here were thousands of dollars at random, not that he didn't have the financial resources, but his parents didn't know that he had so much money in his hands. If you buy it back, you will definitely be asked where you got so much money, so you have to give up thinking about it.
Yan Tao walked around for a while, and was about to leave, but saw a lot of people around the counter in front of him, Yan Tao was also curious, so he leaned in to see what was going on.
Taking a closer look, Yan Tao found several middle-aged men talking around an oval stone the size of a watermelon, as if they were bargaining.
A middle-aged man wearing glasses said to another middle-aged man with old-looking and thinning hair: "Boss Sun, although the quality of this half-gambling rough stone is good, but I offer a price of one million, which is already the limit, even if there is really something in it, the possibility of exceeding my price is very small." I've been in this business for so many years, and you have to pay two million, which is too dark. ”
"Boss Zhou, you can't say that, this batch of rough stones are all I got from the Myanmar jade mine at a high price, the probability of discharging is very large, the day before yesterday there was a person in my place to open a piece of ice imperial green jade, a big piece, worth nearly 10 million. This is obvious to all, and these peers around have seen it, so you can ask them if you don't believe it. The old man touched the stone on the table with his hand and said very complacently.
"I know this, otherwise I wouldn't have come to you. Although this stone has been green, the color is not the best, and now I have seen such a little green, it is difficult to say how much material can be produced in the end, and one million is already the sky-high price. You see, if it works, if it doesn't, I'll leave. Looking at the fingernail-sized touch of green on the stone, the man surnamed Zhou said.
Hearing what the other party said, the old man thought for a while, in fact, what the other party said is also the truth, with his many years of selling rough stones and his understanding of jade jade, although this rough stone has been green, but the color can only be regarded as a commercial-grade ice jadeite, there is no higher possibility. The other party offered one million, which is indeed extremely high, originally he asked for two million, because he wanted to test the following other party's eyesight, you must know that many people who come to gamble on stones have a little money in their hands, but they seem to understand jade and jade, but they want to make a lot of money with it. But the person in front of him is obviously very level, and he can see at a glance the fineness of the jadeite in his half-gambling stone, and judge the maximum possible output in this stone, he should be an expert. It is unlikely that you want to fool people.
"Well, a million is a million. Boss Zhou will open the stone now, or take it back and open it himself. ”
"Let's drive it right here, so I don't have to worry about it on the road. The boss surnamed Zhou said very boldly.
"Okay, then you pay the bill, and I'll give you a stone. Boss Sun said.
Boss Zhou agreed, then took out the checkbook from his body and prepared to sign and pay.
"Wait, this gentleman, you bought a million stones, in case there is nothing in it, isn't it a big loss?" Yan Tao, who was watching the excitement on the side, just now he listened to the conversation between the two, and couldn't help but feel very curious about the so-called gambling stone in their mouths, he had the ability to see, just looked at the stone very casually, and Yan Tao saw that this stone was only a little green in the part that was opened, and the size was less than two pinballs. The rest was empty, nothing. Seeing that Boss Zhou talked extraordinarily and was quite bold, Yan Tao wanted to remind him kindly.
However, Yan Sha's words attracted everyone's laughter.
"Little young, you know a fart. This is called a gambling stone, you know? The gambling is whether there is a good jade in it, and the stone has seen green, which is already half of the gambling win. Even if there is no good material in the end, it is willing to gamble and lose. If you don't understand, don't talk nonsense here. Boss Sun scolded with a displeased face, as if he was quite angry that a layman like Yan Tao disrupted his business. (To be continued.) )
