Chapter 31 Why not fight iron roosters
Tie Chengjin's shot interrupted He Bufan's plan and made him a little angry!
Qin Fang, who had been silent beside him, smiled slightly, of course he was happy, the more these people competed, the happier he was, because the higher the benefits he could get, the original price of these dozen stones was half of the price clearly marked, that is to say, he doubled the original price of the stones, if it was just for sale, the price was okay, but this was a "gambling stone"!
In the game of gambling stones, as long as someone fancies the popular stones, the final transaction price is almost several times higher than the original price, and some even rise dozens of times and hundreds of times, which is only because of "competition"!
In this competition, Qin Fang is the fisherman and the ultimate profiteer, so his mood is the best, on the one hand, he also wants Xu Dong to "enjoy" such madness, what can make people can't help but be tempted is the madness of money!
Who doesn't want to get rich? And is it to make a fortune?
He Bufan originally wanted to raise a large sum of money the second time, he knows the character of Lao Huang and Lao Zheng very well, if you fight with them for 120,000, they will be entangled and slowly add the price code, but if the price code added by others is too fierce, such as from 500,000 to 1 million at once, or higher, then they hesitate and dare not add more, because they will feel pain when they increase the price so high all of a sudden!
Another reason why they dare not raise the price again is that they are afraid that the opponent will increase the price like this, if they add another 120,000 yuan to the high price, the opponent suddenly does not increase the price, then they feel that they have suffered a big loss, and they have to grit their teeth and buy things at a high price!
It's just that this strategy is effective for Lao Huang and Lao Zheng, but it is ineffective for Tie Chengjin, but He Bufan was a little dizzy by Tie Chengjin's "joining the battle", and his brain did not have the usual light, so he gritted his teeth and increased the price again: "One million!" ”
Lao Huang and Lao Zheng were really stunned, and they were shocked by He Bufan's sudden price increase, and they all closed their mouths and hesitated, should they raise the price again?
He Bufan felt a little better when he saw that Lao Huang was "shocked", but he was worried about the old "iron rooster" next to him, and couldn't help but glance at him.
Lao Huang and Lao Zheng stopped squeaking, Tie Chengjin was unmoved, and even expressionless, and slowly spoke again in He Bufan's worry: "One million and one thousand!" ”
He Bufan was so angry that he almost vomited blood!
Even if he takes a fancy to this stone and wants to fight him, please increase the price a little higher, okay? The price has been mentioned to him for one million, but he still adds no more and no less to a thousand, which is purely disgusting to him!
He Bufan was originally very jealous of iron into gold, but he was confused by the disgusting increase in iron into gold, and people are reckless of any consequences when they are angry.
"One and a half million!" He Bufan screamed with a hot face and a thick neck, and increased the price "violently".
Lao Huang Lao Zheng and a few people simply did not join this battle, in their opinion, the psychological limit price of this stone is less than one million, more than this number is not worth it, why not fan gritted his teeth and the appearance of fighting is fighting with iron into gold, the last thing they want to see is actually this kind of scene, because everyone is angry, will only increase the price of money crazy, and in the end almost all of them are the end of killing a thousand enemies and losing eight hundred, gambling on stones are losers, and the real winner is only the "banker"!
But as long as they don't join the battle, if they are on the sidelines, the more lively the better, as the saying goes, in the gambling house, the arms are not afraid of big bets, anyway, winning or losing has nothing to do with them, they just watch a lively!
He Bufan was completely carried away by his anger and blood at this time, and the price soared by 500,000 yuan, and he stared at Tie Chengjin defiantly.
Tie Chengjin touched the goatee on his chin, and still said unhurriedly: "One hundred and a half thousand and one thousand!" ”
He Bufan's eyes were red, and his voice became louder: "Iron Rooster, why don't I fight you to the death today, two million!" ”
Tie Chengjin frowned, spread his hands, and seemed to be "helpless" and said: "If you want to resist to the death, resist to the death, I can't resist it, it's up to you, I can't afford this price!" ”
He Bufan was stunned, turned his head and looked at Qin Fang, Qin Fang smiled and arched his hand: "Brother He, this stone belongs to you!" ”
He Bufan was stunned, his face suddenly became extremely difficult to look at, and in his heart, he greeted the eight generations of the ancestors who turned iron into gold!
This old dog, dug a trap for him to drill, right? At the beginning, he made a posture of fighting to the end, but after the price rose to a high point, he suddenly stopped, and the reserve price of 680,000 rose to 2 million, almost tripled, which can be regarded as making him miserable!
Adding the price of these two 500,000 yuan, He Bufan didn't think much about it at the time, he was angry for a while, he just wanted to fight with Tie Chengjin to the death, who would have expected him to retreat after raising the price twice!
In this circle, He Bufan is very clear, whether it is gambling stones, or competing for collectibles, it is true to the word, and if you open the price code to win, you must pay for it, if you want to regret it, then I am afraid that I will not be able to gain a foothold in this line in the future!
The number of two million, why is he not unaffordable, nor can he afford to lose, but the behavior of gambling stones is "gambling", since it is gambling, how can it be guaranteed that it will definitely "win"?
The most stable winner is actually Qin Fang, why not look at him, Qin Fang smiled at this time, how could he be unhappy?
Qin Fang smiled and pointed to a few machines in front of the stone and said: "Brother He, I have done all the work in this activity, when I came back from Tengchong to transport stones, I simply invited two masters who cut stones and rubbed jade with high salaries in Tengchong, do you want to cut this stone on the spot?" ”
He Bufan gasped a few times with a dark face, and then glanced at Qin Fang, here in Qin Fang, he really didn't dare to go wild, and naturally he didn't dare to rely on his account, thinking that he spent two million to buy a lesson at that time, and blamed the old bastard who killed the god of iron!
There was no way, He Bufan took out the check and pen, reluctantly wrote a check for two million amounts, handed it to Qin Fangcai and said with a wry smile: "Mr. Qin, cut it, since the bet has been made, who doesn't want to see the result?" ”
Qin Fang smiled and nodded, then clapped his palms, and the two people behind him walked over.
"This is Master Ma Dongsheng and his son Ma Chao from Tengchong!" Qin Fang immediately introduced these two people.
Xu Dong felt familiar and interesting when he heard the word "Ma Chao", Xiliang Ma Chao in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms is the famous "Five Tiger Generals", one of the five tiger generals of Guan Zhang, Zhao Ma and Huang, and one of his favorite two people, the other one is Zhao Yun.
However, the "Ma Chao" in front of him must be far different from the Ma Chao described in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Ma Dongsheng is in his fifties, with a bronzed face, looking weathered, Ma Chao is thirty years old, his figure is a little thin, his hands are very long, and his finger joints are very long, like bamboo branches.
After Ma Dongsheng and his son Ma Chao were introduced by Qin Fang, the rivers and lakes arched their hands in a general manner: "Hello bosses!" ”
Qin Fang waved his hand and ordered: "Master Ma, look at how Boss He's piece of material is going to be opened!" ”
Ma Dongsheng nodded, he had already seen the dozen or so stones that Qin Fang had photographed countless times, and he didn't need to look at them anymore, but he just said to He Bufan: "Boss He, we generally have two rules for opening stones, one is that the stone master draws the tangent line by himself, we just draw the line, and the other is that our stone cutter decides the line of the cutter according to experience and skills, I don't know how Boss He wants to cut it?" ”
He Bufan pondered for a moment before replying: "Then let Master Ma cut it!" ”
He Bufan still has some eyesight for himself in the skills of looking at stones, but if he talks about the manual work of cutting stones, he is definitely not as good as a master like Ma Dongsheng who has decades of skills!
"Good!" Ma Dongsheng nodded, and then said: "Boss He, our rules are that no matter how good the stone is cut or bad, we stone cutters are not responsible for the loss, of course, I also use my reputation to guarantee that I will never cut indiscriminately!" ”
He Bufan nodded and said, "I understand this, Master Ma will open the material!" ”
In the stone industry, the master of cutting stone is also based on reputation, the more famous the precious jadeite is opened, the higher the salary, and the stone cutter is absolutely careful and careful about cutting stone materials, if a piece of high-quality jadeite is cut bad, it is equivalent to terminating his work in this industry, because no one will ask anyone to cut bad jadeite jade to open the stone again.
Regarding this point, He Bufan still believes what Ma Dongsheng said, since Qin Fang invited him back from Tengchong with a high salary, if he didn't have a little fame, Qin Fang wouldn't have invited him!
Ma Dongsheng didn't say much, and waved his hand to his son: "Bring the stone over to fix the position." ”
Ma Chao prepared the tools in advance, used a semi-automatic small forklift to transport the stones to the steel frame of the stone cutter, and then placed the direction of the seat little by little according to the guidance of his old son Ma Dongsheng.
A stone cutter with good technology and good eyesight also has a lot of exquisiteness, for example, the stone should be cut from which direction, how much thickness the first knife should be cut, these are extremely experienced skills, if you accidentally cut the jade in the stone, it is ruined a lifetime of reputation!
Of course, after cutting jade wool for decades, Ma Dongsheng also understands better that there are thousands of jade wool, and there is only a chance of a few tenths of a percent chance of cutting out jade, and to cut out high-quality jade, it is even more unique.
And this qiē is also based on the fact that the raw stone wool is the material of the authentic old pit, otherwise you can just get some stones, and you will not be able to open a jade with a needle tip for a lifetime!
Ma Dongsheng started as an apprentice at the age of 16 and is now 54 years old, and has been working for 38 years of stone, and he has only opened a piece of excellent Laokeng glass jadeite, which was made into a jade plate watermelon by the jade carver Hu Delai, and finally sold abroad for 27 million US dollars, and has not been heard from since.
The rest of the jadeite of one grade again, Ma Dongsheng has opened a lot, like ice jadeite and other high-grade has also been opened six or seven times, but in recent years it is becoming more and more rare and more difficult to open, jadeite is almost a non-renewable gem, like oil, it has to be formed by the movement of the earth for millions of years, and one less is one less to excavate, until the resources are exhausted.
And because today's stone cutting is also the first job of Ma Dongsheng's father and son after coming to Tongcheng, he only asked his son to do the hard work and assist, and the real operation was carried out by him personally!
