Chapter 173: Bet on a stone

Because the task time limit for the Gu Wang Sect ruins given by the system was one month, Ye Mu was not in a hurry and immediately took Yi Kerou to the Gu King Sect to pay tribute to the ancestors of the Gu King Sect.

At the kind invitation of Grandpa Yi, Ye Mu stayed in Yi's house for a few days. During this period, Ye Mu followed Grandpa Yi to see a lot of local customs in Mingkun City.

Since the Yi family is in the jewelry business, in the past few days, Ye Mu has been in contact with Grandpa Yi the most, and it is still an activity called gambling stones.

Gambling stone refers to the jadeite when it is mined, there is a layer of weathered skin wrapped, and it is impossible to know the quality of the jadeite, and the quality can only be known after cutting.

When gambling on stones, gamblers need to judge the quality of the internal jadeite material according to the characteristics of the outer shell of the jadeite rough, the direction of the texture and the "door" opened.

Although Yi's jewelry store has a fixed supply of jadeite, in order to obtain better jadeite resources, Grandpa Yi and Dad Yi have been engaged in the gambling stone industry for a long time.

Because Nanyun Province is adjacent to Miandian country, Miandian country is a big country that produces jadeite wool, and Mingkun City, as the capital city of Nanyun Province, often has a large number of high-grade wool imports.

In Mingkun City, gambling stones is a very popular commercial method, and many jewelry stores, antique shops, and even some roadside stalls on the street provide gambling stones.

Of course, as Grandpa Yi, he naturally would not go to this kind of place to gamble on stones. What he took Ye Mu to was the largest gambling stone market in Mingkun City, and it was also the most prosperous gambling stone venue in Mingkun City.

There are various levels of wool listed here, ranging from large to small, and one of them is a very inconspicuous stone. It is quite possible that a multimillionaire will be created.

However, with windfall profits comes risk. Some stones cost millions of dollars. It's fine if the bet goes up, but if it goes down. It is very likely that there will be a scene of family ruin.

Grandpa Yi has been in the gambling stone market for decades and has seen countless ups and downs.

Therefore, when he first took Ye Mu into the gambling stone market, he taught Ye Mu not to indulge in gambling stones, at most entertainment and entertainment, and not to expect to make a fortune in this way.

"Isn't this Lao Yi? Where have you been going in the past few months, I still think you're dead! ”

I only heard a hearty laughter, and an old man with blue hair and who looked about the same age as Grandpa Yi appeared in Ye Mu's field of vision.

"Your old man is not dead yet. How could I, Lao Yi, go to see Lord Yama first? Grandpa Yi sneered.

Although both of them were cursing each other, Ye Mu could see that they were just joking. In fact, the two are actually a pair of very good old friends.

"Lao Yi, who is this handsome guy? Why do you look so raw! Walking towards him, the old man who was called Old Man Sun by Grandpa Yi cast his eyes on Ye Mu's body.

"My grandson-in-law." Grandpa Yi pulled Ye Mu to his side, and when he introduced him, there was a smug look in his expression.

Old man Sun and Grandpa Yi have been friends for many years. How could you not see that Grandpa Yi was so demeanor, it was all about expressing his love for Ye Mu.

This made Old Man Sun a little curious, what was the reason why his good friend admired such a little guy so much?

Old man Sun's eyes couldn't help but glance at Ye Mu twice, and then he congratulated Grandpa Yi and said, "Congratulations, Old Yi." Now that I have a grandson-in-law, I should have a grandson soon, and don't forget to invite my grandson to drink the full moon wine of the doll! ”

Hear the words. Grandpa Yi suddenly burst out laughing, but he didn't feel anything. It's more pleasant than this: "Haha, I promise your good words." I will never forget you when I look back. ”

Ye Mu heard the conversation between the two old uncultivators on the side, and couldn't help but feel helpless, this is not a pole to the side, so he thought about hugging his grandson.

Although under the deliberate arrangement of Yi's mother, Ye Mu has slept on the same bed with Yi Kerou in the past few days at the Yi family, but Ye Mu can't say that he has suffering.

When Ye Mu thought of the warm fragrance of nephrite on his side, his mouth and feet were exhausted, but no matter what, Yi Kerou just didn't let him cross the last step, Ye Mu suddenly felt a fire in his heart.

Of course, this fire is not anger, but evil fire and desire. Fire.

Grandpa Yi and Old Man Sun were walking and chatting in the gambling stone market, and Ye Mu, as a junior, naturally had to stand quietly and follow them.

From their conversation, Ye Mu learned that this old man Sun's real name is Sun Buyi, and he runs a medium-sized gambling stone shop in this gambling stone market, and he himself is also a skilled stone solving master.

Injustice stone shop, this is the name of Sun Buyidian pΓΉ. Sun Buyi introduced Grandpa Yi and Ye Mu into the store, and immediately ordered the guys in the store to deliver fragrant tea.

When Ye Mu sat down in the stone shop hall and tasted the tea slowly, there were just a few guests in the stone shop.

At the beckoning of the men, the men stopped in front of a huge pile of wool that had not yet been mined, and then began to select the wool they were satisfied with.

However, it is clear that these people are not professional gambling personnel. Whether they observe the movement of the wool or determine whether the stone contains green, they are all so amateurish.

Grandpa Yi just glanced at the wool in one of the hands, and said softly firmly, "There is nothing in this wool." ”

Hearing this, Ye Mu immediately asked curiously, "How did Grandpa see it?" ”

"Generally, gambling stones should have three major elements: one is to send flowers, that is, green spots like the size of needle tips are exposed on the leather shell, the clearer the distribution, the lighter the better.

The second is to look at ringworm, that is, there should be distinct ringworm spots on the skin shell, with a dark concave and convex lumpy structure as the top.

The third is to look at the python belt, that is, there should be different color strips on the fur case, just like a python wrapped around it.

And you look at his piece of wool, no matter which of the above conditions it has. Even the three most basic elements do not meet, which is obviously a waste rock. ”

Grandpa Yi didn't reserve any reservations about the skills of gambling stones with Ye Mu, while Ye Mu looked humble and listened carefully.

The customer who was judged by Grandpa Yi to have bought the waste stone, after buying the wool, immediately asked the stone master in the store to help him solve the stone.

The final result naturally confirmed Grandpa Yi's words, and that piece of wool was indeed a waste stone.

Ye Mu saw with his own eyes that the original piece of wool the size of a grapefruit was cut horizontally and vertically by Master Kaishi, and it was constantly polished until it was cut less than the size of an egg, and he didn't see a little green.

Seeing that a few guests who came on a whim, but all of them returned disappointed, all of them left the stone shop in frustration, Ye Mu couldn't help but sigh in his heart: This gambling stone is really not something that ordinary people can play, and the risk is too great.

"Is Xiao Mu interested in trying his hand too?" At this time, Sun Buyi on the side suddenly spoke, with a smile in his eyes.

"Me?" Hearing Sun Buyi's words, Ye Mu was slightly stunned at first, and then shook his head: "Thank you Grandpa Sun for your kindness, but I'll forget it!" I don't know anything about this gambling stone. ”

"It's okay, if you lose the bet, it's Grandpa Sun's mine, and it will be regarded as a meeting gift from Grandpa Sun, and some people in the province will say I'm stingy in the future." Sun Buyi warmly invited Ye Mu, and at the same time, he did not forget to mock his old friend.

Grandpa Yi didn't bother to pay attention to Sun Buyi's lifting of his bar, waved his hand at Ye Mu and said, "Xiao Mu, since your grandfather Sun has spoken, then you can go and have fun!" ”

"This ...... All right! Seeing that the two of them had spoken, Ye Mu was embarrassed to refuse anymore at this time.

In the stone shop, there are not only piles of wool, but several piles, and the quality of each pile of wool is different, the pile closest to the door of the store, is the worst quality of them, but also the cheapest wool.

Although Sun Buyi said that he didn't want Ye Mu's money, Ye Mu was not a person who didn't know what to do, he got up from his seat and went straight to the pile of wool with the worst quality.

Seeing this, Sun Buyi, who was sitting on the Taishi chair behind him and holding a fragrant tea, couldn't help but turn his head and praise Grandpa Yi: "Your grandson-in-law has chosen well!" ”

Although Grandpa Yi didn't speak, the flying colors between his eyebrows showed how happy he was at the moment.

Sun Buyi's words were speaking into his heart. (To be continued......)
