Chapter Eighty-Four: The Road to Rivalry is Narrow
In the huge exhibition area, there are a few companies that do rough diamond trading, because rough diamonds have no gambling nature, so basically a few large producers can monopolize this industry.
So most of these rough diamond booths are a few Chinese accompanied by one or two black or white people, and at first glance they are diamond merchants from Africa.
Originally, African rough diamonds were exported to Europe for processing and sales, but in recent years, China's economy has developed rapidly, and the demand for luxury jewelry has increased day by day, so there have been some shrewd African businessmen who have begun to open up new business channels in China.
In addition to these sporadic rough diamond merchants, most of the booths in the E exhibition area are occupied by merchants of jadeite rough wool.
Different from the previous four exhibition areas, the splendor is beautiful, and the sense of science and technology is full.
The shops in the E exhibition area are much more rustic, and most of the rough stone merchants even place the wool directly on the ground and divide an area with a separation belt, which is considered their own booth.
Although these shops do not have the luxury of the front, the daily turnover here is very impressive, often exceeding the sum of the first four booths.
The people of China are accustomed to speculation, which makes the price of jadeite rough soar, and at the same time, it also makes the E exhibition area frequently traded, contributing a lot of tax revenue to the entire jewelry trading market.
These rough stones, the small ones are only the size of a fist, and the large ones even weigh a few tons, and the shapes of a thousand postures make Xiao Ran, a novice who came to the jade rough trading market for the first time, dazzled.
"Little brother, you're new to the industry, right? How about a few pieces of wool that I have here? Xiao Ran's performance immediately attracted the attention of the rough stone merchants, and a fat middle-aged man shouted at Xiao Ran.
Although Xiao Ran's clothes looked ordinary, Xiao Ran, as a martial cultivator in the realm of physical perfection, showed a temperament that seemed to stand out from the crowd, and he stood out in the entire E exhibition area, and the middle-aged man did not despise him in the slightest.
There were still a few guests in this booth who were buying rough stones, and Xiao Ran also walked over with great interest and stood behind to take a few looks.
Just seeing those guests holding magnifying glasses and carefully looking at the rough stones in their hands made Xiao Ran a little confused.
"Boss, how do you sell the stones here?" Xiao Ran couldn't see the doorway, so he asked the jade rough boss directly.
The middle-aged man smiled: "Little brother, what you are asking is a layman, it is really a newcomer who has just entered the industry, you can't ask the price first to buy the rough stone, you have to choose the stone first, and I will give you an estimate." ”
"Oh? And this statement? Xiao Ran was stunned.
The middle-aged man enthusiastically stretched out his hand and introduced himself: "Contemptible Sun Pengju, little brother, you can come to my booth just after you entered the industry, it can be regarded as fate, make a friend!" ”
Seeing that this boss was so enthusiastic, Xiao Ran was also a little embarrassed, I don't know if he regarded himself as the son of a rich family.
But he didn't refuse Sun Pengju's kindness, after all, he was a complete layman for the jadeite rough, and if he wanted to find a good jadeite as Liu Man's birthday gift, he really had to know something about buying the rough.
After exchanging his name with Sun Peng, the two came to the bamboo table in the booth and chatted.
I have to say that this jade rough stone merchant Sun Peng walked from south to north, and had a bit of extraordinary eyesight, and after receiving Xiao Ran, he didn't care about the rest of the guests who were selecting stones, and only chatted with Xiao Ran, obviously believing that Xiao Ran would be a big customer.
"Boss Sun, aren't these jadeite rough stones priced according to their weight? Need to have a separate appraisal for each rough stone? Taking the tea handed over by Sun Pengju, Xiao Ran asked.
In terms of buying jadeite rough, Xiao Ran is completely a layman, and he will not pretend to understand, it is rare to meet a boss who is enthusiastic and talkative, so he naturally asked all kinds of doubts in his heart.
Hearing Xiao Ran's question, Sun Pengju smiled kindly and explained, "Little brother is from Yuncheng, right?" You should have heard of the gambling stone, this jadeite rough stone in the world now no instrument can detect the inside of the stone, so whether there is jadeite in a rough stone wool, what is the grade of jadeite, no one can say accurately, so the purchase of wool, it is also called gambling stone, the so-called a knife rich and a knife poor, said is the uncertainty of this jadeite wool. ”
The so-called half gambling is divided into two kinds, one is to directly cut a piece of wool, called opening the skylight, and the other is to polish off the outer skin of a little wool from the edge, called rubbing the stone. Whether it is to open the skylight or rub the stone, as long as it is green, it proves that there is jadeite in the rough stone, and the person who buys the wool can judge the color of the jadeite in the rough stone according to the greenness exposed, which is called half a gamble. ”
Saying that, Sun Pengju picked up a fist-sized piece of wool from the side of the table leg, pointed to the side and grinded the skin and said: "You see, the skin has been worn off on the edge of this wool, and it is green. ”
As a result, Sun Peng raised the wool in his hand, quietly released the power of shock, sensed the internal mechanism of the original stone, and was pleased to find that where there is green, that is, there is jade, and the frequency of the shock is not easy to transmit, on the contrary, it is much easier to transmit the shock wave in the place where there is no green.
Xiao Ran's heart moved, and he subconsciously asked: "Boss Sun, I don't know how much you are going to ask for this piece of wool?" ”
"This piece of wool is actually a waste product, although this greenery looks good, but you look at this pine flower, it obviously spreads too fast, it can't even get out of a shit ground, it's not worth anything, otherwise I wouldn't throw it at the foot of the table......"
Sun Pengju smiled, but he didn't think about fooling Xiao Ran, but directly told the so-called truth of this piece of wool.
Hearing Sun Pengju's words, Xiao Ran gasped, this is really gambling, seeing that Sun Pengju picked up the rough stone from the foot of the table, it was obviously not a word to deceive himself, and even Sun Pengju, the owner of the jade rough stone, actually looked away.
Because Xiao Ran had already discovered that in this fist-sized rough stone, in addition to the green of the grinding place, there was actually a big green inside, although Xiao Ran couldn't tell the difference between the glass species and the shock of the shit ground at this time, but there was definitely jade inside.
In the process of Xiao Ran's eyelids jumping, Sun Pengju put a piece of worthless half-gambling wool in his mouth back to the foot of the table, pointed to a pile of black stones on the ground of the booth and said: "Those are the wool materials of the full gamble, the price is much lower than the wool of the half gamble, but, whether there is jadeite in it, what kind of jadeite can be produced, it depends on the eyesight and luck of the full-screen buyer, how about it, do you want to buy a few little brothers?" ”
This Sun Pengju really had a bit of patience, and he also saw that Xiao Ran didn't know anything about jadeite wool, so he simply explained the basic knowledge of gambling stones, and only then did he reveal the idea of selling rough stones to Xiao Ran.
"The gambling nature of the whole gamble is too big, I'd better consider the second half of the bet......" Xiao Ran knew that there must be jade in the fist-sized wool just now, so he didn't have the rest of the mind to hang around, thinking about how to ask this Boss Sun to sell the half-gambling wool just now to himself.
"Haha, little brother, you are a novice, the investment from the beginning of half gambling is too high, or let me introduce you to some relatively good quality of the whole gambling wool to you......" Xiao Ran's refusal, Sun Pengju did not care, this gambling stone is a kind of gambling, as long as you enter the industry, see someone rich and rich, and the value has increased dozens or even hundreds of times overnight, it is impossible to quit the gambling stone industry.
So as long as Xiao Ran can enter the industry here, he will not worry that Xiao Ran will not take care of his business in the future.
However, Sun Pengju's words are also true, the price of wool is low, and the cost is indeed much smaller to start with the full gamble.
Xiao Ran wanted to buy the fist-sized half-gambling wool and cut it to see the color, so as to determine what color the different shockwave transmission represents.
As a result, he couldn't resist Sun Pengju's enthusiasm, and was pulled by him to the outside of the booth.
Sun Pengju pointed to the all-gambling wool on the ground and introduced it to Xiao Ran, and also let Xiao Ran know that this enthusiastic jade merchant was worth a lot of money.
Look at the full gambling wool on the shelves outside, from thousands to tens of thousands, and even hundreds of thousands, millions of full gambling wool, not counting those half-gambling wool, that is, these full gambling wool on the ground are added together, and the net worth of this Boss Sun is also tens of millions.
"Okay, I'll try my hand at you, Boss Sun, you can introduce me to a few to try your luck......" With 100 million funds in hand, Xiao Ran didn't bother with the fist-sized half-gambling wool anymore, and was ready to buy a few here to see the different corresponding results of the shock wave transmission.
Just when Sun Pengju enthusiastically introduced Xiao Ran, a group of people came over and took a look at Xiao Ran.
One of the people on the other side immediately recognized Xiao Ran, and shouted in his mouth: "Yo, isn't this the little white face from yesterday?" ”
Xiao Ran looked up and found that it was the bewitching girl Tanya and her followers yesterday, but today Tanya changed into yesterday's red dress and red leather shoes, and changed into a black leather coat.
Her body was framed by a close-fitting leather jacket and leather pants, black leather shoes with a few black rivets on her feet, a silver metal belt tied around her waist, and black smoky makeup painted on her face.
At this time, Tanya, who had transformed from a demon into a gothic ghost, was staring at Xiao Ran with an indignant face.
Xiao Ran couldn't help laughing, it was really a narrow road, and she actually met this girl who was-for-tat with Liu Man everywhere in this jewelry trading market the next day.
When he was eating in the morning, Xiao Ran had already heard Liu Man say that this Tan Ya, who was full of foul language, turned out to be the daughter of Tan Qianshan, the governor of Jiangnan Province, which made Xiao Ran shake his head secretly, feeling a headache for the second chief of Jiangnan Province, having such a daughter is destined to break Tan Qianshan's heart.
"It turned out to be Miss Tan, why are you also interested in gambling stones?" The corners of Xiao Ran's mouth flashed a playful smile, and he greeted him neither humbly nor arrogantly.
Knowing that Tanya and Liu Man grew up together, Xiao Ran didn't have much malice towards this little girl who cursed Liu Man with foul words, maybe she and Liu Man were that special way of getting along.
Xiao Ran's words made Tanya on the other side raise her eyebrows, feeling that Liu Man's little ** little white face was a little difficult, just yesterday he slapped his companion Ruan Zhibin and stunned him, so that the kid is still lying in the hospital, and now they meet like a close friend to greet each other, what does this mean?
"Miss? Who do you say is Miss? You're the young lady! Tanya's mouth was really unforgiving, Xiao Ran's title, she grabbed the handle, and immediately began to curse again.
Xiao Ran frowned, no longer paid attention to this vicious little girl, turned her head to Sun Pengju and said with a smile: "Boss Sun, please introduce me to a few pieces of wool first, I will cut it and take a look......"
Seeing that Xiao Ran ignored her curses, Tanya suddenly became angry, opened her long legs, shook her graceful body wrapped in leather clothes and leather pants, and directly entered Sun Pengju's booth, shouting viciously: "Boss! Don't sell it to anyone else, I've got all the rough here! ”
