"Old turtle, how much do you think this stone is worth at most?"

After hurriedly walking out of Wang Cripple's jade shop, Zhang Yilong asked.

The old turtle replied solemnly: "Xiaolong, you have made a lot of money!" Although I don't know how much your stone is worth, but it is definitely more than five million, just now the lame king asked you to sell him one million, isn't this fooling a layman? ”

"Five million?!" Hearing the old turtle's answer, Zhang Yilong was naturally surprised and delighted, five million is already a lot, after all, his stone just spent about 1,000 yuan, because a total of seven or eight stones only came out of 6,000, I don't know how many times it has multiplied.

The old turtle nodded vigorously and said, "Yes! That's just my most conservative estimate, the prospect of your stone is very good, but I advise you not to move, don't cut it anymore, gambling on the stone is risky, and you need to be cautious in cutting! ”

Zhang Yilong nodded in agreement: "Well, I know." Let's see the situation first. ”

He knew what the old turtle meant, the gambling stone was very hanging, before cutting it, no one could judge the internal condition of the stone, after all, the jade jade in his hand had only been cut a little bit, only revealing a hole, but the situation under the cut surface could not be determined by the naked eye.

But that's just the opinion of ordinary people such as the old turtle, and for him Zhang Yilong, it is no longer a suspense, because he can see the situation inside the stone with a little movement.

After a period of careful observation just now, Zhang Yilong found that there was an intact jadeite inside the stone, so he could completely unravel the stone without taking the slightest risk.

"Didi, Didi, Didi......"

Before Zhang Yilong took a few steps, the mobile phone in his pocket suddenly rang, and he took out his mobile phone to answer the call without thinking.

"Hey, Brother Zhang, it's me, Liu Wenjun!" I only heard an excited shout from the other end of the phone, "Hehe, congratulations first, I have been watching when you gambled on the stone just now, it is so exciting, I have never seen such a wonderful gambling stone!" I just want to ask, do you want to transfer that stone? Boss Wang's bid is indeed a bit low, and it's a bit pit, but as long as you are willing to talk to me, I promise to give you a satisfactory price, how about it?! ”

Liu ...... Boss Liu? Zhang Yilong was stunned and said, "I'm sorry, I haven't thought about it." ”

The other party reported his name and said what "Liu Wenjun" was, Zhang Yilong couldn't remember it for a while, he didn't know how the other party knew his phone number, but he knew that he had been mixed up in the antique street for a while, and there were quite a few people who had been in contact, and after entering the auction company, he also distributed business cards everywhere, so it was not surprising that strangers knew their contact information.

"Brother Zhang, you won't remember me, will you?" Liu Wenjun said with a smile, "That time you accompanied a friend to visit me, and you also fell in love with a thing in my store at that time, but unfortunately it didn't work out in the end." But I'm still keeping that thing there, or else, you and I can talk to me about trading that piece of jade, and I'll give it to you for free!" ”

"Oh, you mean the snuffbox, right?" Zhang Yilong asked rhetorically.

"Yes, yes, that's it, that's the thing, Qianlong's inner painting snuff bottle, a very beautiful thing, the original price I asked for seventy or eighty thousand, and now I give it to you, as long as you are willing to transfer that half-gambling stone to me." Liu Wenjun said busily.

"Half-gambling stones?" Zhang Yilong was confused for a moment, but he quickly realized that the "half-gambling stone" that the other party was talking about was the piece of jade and jade that he hadn't fully unraveled.

"Boss Liu, I'm sorry, although I like that snuffbox very much, but I can't ask for your things for nothing, if I want it, then I have to buy it from you." Zhang Yilong then replied solemnly.

About a month ago, he accompanied a friend to Liu Wenjun's antique shop to discuss business, during which he fell in love with a snuff bottle in the other party's hand, and after bargaining, the other party wanted 60,000 yuan, and at that time he was shy in his pocket, even if he borrowed money, he couldn't make up so much, so he had to give up.

Zhang Yilong only thought it was very strange, Liu Wenjun was the kind of snobbish and very arrogant, who knew that the other party took the initiative to call him today, he seemed enthusiastic, and said that he would give him the snuffbox for nothing.

In the final analysis, the other party wants to hit the idea of that piece of glass jadeite!

Zhang Yilong is not a fool, he will not compromise with the other party because he is greedy for a little cheapness.

So he didn't bother to argue with Liu Wenjun, and immediately said goodbye and hung up the phone.

But who knew that as soon as he hung up the phone, the mobile phone rang again, but this time it was not Liu Wenjun calling, but another unfamiliar phone number.

Zhang Yilong thought about it and then answered, sure enough, the other party also came for the piece of jade, Zhang Yilong unceremoniously rejected the other party's request without saying a few words, and hung up the phone, in order for someone not to disturb him at this time, he simply turned off the phone to deal with it.

"Xiaolong, you have not only become rich, but also famous! If I'm correct, a lot of people will be coming in the next few days. The old turtle smiled and said, "You used to be unknown, but now you have suddenly become a celebrity on this street, which is a good thing, and it will help your future business, but the tree is a big wind, you have to be careful, one is not to trust others, fall into the hands of others, and the other is that the world is sinister, especially in the past two days, you have to be careful before the stone is not sold, there is an old saying that is good,' Millions or even tens of millions of precious jade on the body, it is indeed very eye-catching, if it is aimed at people with bad intentions, it will not be good! ”

Zhang Yilong said calmly: "Old turtle, I know this, I'm not a horse, I'll be careful." ”

"Well, that's good, I'm more relieved." The old turtle was relieved, "Xiaolong, where are you going now?" Why don't you go to my house? Let's go have a drink, and talk about your stone, after all, I know better than you, and I also know a little bit of the market, and I know a few friends, they are playing jade, and they are big bosses, if you like your piece of jade, it will only give you a more fair price. ”

"Okay." Zhang Yilong nodded without hesitation.

At this moment, he didn't know where to go, renting a house was not his home after all, and he didn't have that sense of security, and he used to go to the old turtle's home often, and he was very familiar with it, and he was more at ease than anyone else about the loyal and honest man of the old turtle.

So under the leadership of the old turtle, Zhang Yilong soon came to a house, the community where the old turtle is located is very ordinary, the buildings are a little old, and his house is also an ordinary unit, it is more crowded, stuffed with things everywhere, and most of those things are the old turtle from the antique market, the old turtle is undoubtedly an antique fan, although he is outside the stall to sell things, but he himself likes things that are reluctant to sell, good things only go in and out, so his life is relatively poor.

"Xiaolong, come on, let's have a few drinks first. This is a bottle of good wine that my daughter sent me when I was born, and to tell you the truth, I usually don't want to drink it, at most I take a small sip. ”

After sitting down, it didn't take long for the old turtle to take out a bottle of wine from the back room, it was a bottle of red wine imported from abroad, looking at the dense English letters on the bottle, Zhang Yi's head hurt, but it should be a good bottle of wine, otherwise the old turtle would not have been kept until now.

"Old turtle, how can you be embarrassed? Just drink whatever you want, you don't have to take such a good wine. Zhang Yilong said.

The old turtle shook his head and said, "Hey, how can you do that?!" Now it's time to celebrate! Xiaolong, after drinking this bottle of wine, your identity is very different! ”

"What's the difference?" Zhang Yilong said with a smile, "I'm not me?" Running errands at an auction company! It's hard all day! ”

The old turtle said: "The past is the past, and the present is the present!" You've become a multi-millionaire! If your stone can take out a relatively complete glass jadeite, it would be strange if it was not sold for tens of millions of dollars! Xiaolong, with this funding, what are you going to do? Because you've got a new starting point! ”

As he spoke, he poured Zhang Yilong full of wine, and then the two of them gently clinked glasses and drank the wine.

I only heard Zhang Yilong say with a smile: "I have a lot to do!" First buy a house for my parents, settle them, and then help my brother and my sister, as for myself, I have to plan slowly, my ideal state is to open a super large and super influential antique shop, but also open a private museum, the good things to show everyone, so that everyone can share the joy of collecting! Old turtle, is my ideal a little too big? You don't think I'm dreaming, do you? ”

"Only with ideals can there be motivation!" The old turtle took a sip of wine and said, "No matter what, you have the capital to let your family live a happy life!" I envy you, I envy your parents! I know you have a drill in terms of collecting, but it's just a lack of conditions, think about your and Xiaobin's actions before, I think you're stupid, but very cute! Do you plan to support Xiaobin and help him open an antique shop, opening an antique shop is his biggest dream, but unfortunately it has not been realized, and I don't know how he is doing now, I haven't been in touch for a long time. Xiaolong, Xiaobin shouldn't be doing this now, right? ”

"I just talked to him on the phone the day before yesterday, he is now in Xi'an, I heard that he is preparing to come to Haizhou, no, he has been doing this kind of thing, but he has something to hide, I don't know what he is doing, but the road is his own, I don't want to manage it!" Zhang Yilong replied truthfully, Lao Jiao, him and Zhang Zhibin, the three of them are good friends who treat each other with all sincerity, they were and are now, if they can, of course Zhang Yilong is willing to help Zhang Zhibin, this is no need to ask.

"Hehe, his boy's dream of making a fortune has finally come true in you, and he has got his wish! Little Dragon, come, go again! I'm so happy today! The old turtle said happily, and after that, he continued to toast with Zhang Yilong.

The two of them were talking and laughing while drinking, the atmosphere was very harmonious, and I don't know how long it was, but suddenly, only a loud "bang" was heard, and someone pushed the door open.

At that moment, Zhang Yilong was startled, and thought that someone had broken into the door, but fortunately, it was none other than Aunt Lu, the wife of the old turtle, who rushed in.

Aunt Lu was angry, as if something very unpleasant had happened.
