After the transaction with Su Zhe was completed, Liu Xiong asked the staff to take the 5 ginseng plants and keep them. Li Wenbo is no longer needed here, so Li Wenbo took the initiative to retire, saying that he would go back to take care of Liu's pharmacy, and Liu Xiong asked him to go first.

After Li Wenbo left, Liu Xiong looked at his watch and suddenly asked Su Zhe: "Su Zhe, are you interested in going to see this year's Gambling Stone Cultural Festival with me?" ”

Su Zhe was stunned for a moment and said, "Gambling Stone Cultural Festival, do you want to go now?" ”

When the jadeite is mined, there is a layer of weathered skin wrapped on the outside, and before cutting, it is impossible to know the quality of the inside, and it is necessary to know the quality of the jadeite after cutting. This process is known as the gambling stone.

As for the Gambling Stone Cultural Festival, Su Zhe had already heard about it. Because this is the first time that Yanyun City has obtained the qualification to hold the Gambling Stone Cultural Festival, a lot of money has been invested, and the unprecedented publicity is unprecedented, even Su Zhe, a layman, can know about it. The so-called gambling stone cultural festival is just people from all over the country who are engaged in this industry, or people involved in gambling stones, gather together to trade.

When the jadeite is mined, there is a layer of weathered skin wrapped on the outside, and before cutting, it is impossible to know the quality of the inside, and it is necessary to know the quality of the jadeite after cutting. This process is known as the gambling stone. In recent years, because of the popularity of the gambling stone industry, everyone has more or less heard of the gambling stone.

"Yes, go now."

"Okay, let's go with Brother Liu to see the charm of gambling stones." Su Zhe didn't want to go against Liu Xiong's interest, and he himself was a little interested in this, so he agreed to go to the Gambling Stone Cultural Festival together.

"Alright, we'll go now, and I'll make sure you won't be disappointed." Liu Xiong said heartily, and after speaking, he called the driver and asked the driver to prepare the car and wait for him below.

After Liu Xiong finished the call, he took Su Zhe out of the house.

The location of the Gambling Stone Cultural Festival is in the center of Yanyun City, the flow of people is very strong, and there are countless enthusiasts from all over the country, and the venue of the Gambling Stone Cultural Festival is crowded with people.

The shops on this street are all about gambling stones, and there are processed jade products and unprocessed jade. There are all kinds of variety, and Su Zhe is dazzled. Of course, the most attractive thing is the unprocessed rough stone, which is also the gimmick selling point of this gambling stone cultural festival.

Liu Xiong told Su Zhe all the way about the knowledge and stories about gambling stones, just now on the road, Liu Xiong has told Su Zhe a lot, his deeds of gambling stones, Liu Xiong likes gambling stones very much, but he knows how to control himself, just like he said, just a small fight, nothing is nothing, every time it is just a small bet. Liu Xiong lost a little except when he first participated in gambling stones, but now he has made and lost money gambling stones.

As for how much he lost in the early stage, Liu Xiong did not elaborate, but Su Zhe estimated that Liu Xiong paid a lot of tuition in it.

Liu Xiong and Su Zhe walked into a relatively large gambling stone hall. This gambling stone hall has two floors, the first floor of the gambling stone hall, the glass counter is placed with some jade warm and full, beautiful jade jewelry, which has pendants, ring faces, bracelets, bead chains, ornaments, etc., the first floor is mainly for the sale of all kinds of jade jade finished products.

Su Zhe and Liu Xiong were not very interested in these finished jadeite, and the two of them just hurriedly browsed and went directly to the second floor.

On the second floor of the Gambling Stone Museum, there are rows of unprocessed jadeite rough stones lying on the shelves, large and small in size, and most of these rough stones have not been cut on the surface and are wrapped in leather shells.

Some of the rough stones that sell better seem to have a greater chance of producing jade, and the staff of the gambling stone hall will introduce the entrance of the rough stone to the customers who are interested in buying, which appraiser has identified it, as well as the surface of the rough stone and the internal comments, of course, the price of this kind of rough stone is naturally expensive.

On the second floor, there are already many people here to select rough stones, and there are even people who have solved stones on site. Generally, in order to attract customers, the gambling stone hall will solve the stone for customers for free, and this gambling stone hall of Su Zhelai is no exception.

When Su Zhe and the others came here, someone happened to have selected the rough stone and was calcing the stone on the spot, which attracted the attention of many people. Liu Xiong and Su Zhe were not in a hurry at this time, and also went up to watch the process of calculating the stone.

The buyer of this rough stone is a man in his early 50s, not very tall, but he has a rich face.

According to the onlookers, the rough stone that is ready to be unraveled now cost the buyer 150,000 yuan. Su Zhe was not a little surprised, no matter how he looked horizontally and vertically, it was just a very ordinary stone. But judging from the tone of the onlookers, this rough stone sells very well, and the probability of green is not small.

After the buyer discussed with the calcite master for a while, the rough stone worth 150,000 yuan was moved to the machine.

The calcite master adjusted the angle, asked the buyer what he meant, and after the buyer's consent, he cut it down.

As the knife went down, the incision of the wool appeared a strip of turquoise, about the thickness of a thumb.

"It's green, and the bet is up."

"This first knife is green, what a good sign."

The onlookers were talking a lot, more excited than the buyers, as if they were the ones who came out of the green rough stone.

"If this stone is sold now, it can be sold for at least 200,000 yuan." Liu Xiong whispered.

This can earn 50,000 yuan in a blink of an eye, which makes Su Zhe even more surprised.

Liu Xiong's vision was really accurate, and as soon as he finished speaking, a middle-aged man dressed as a businessman offered 200,000 yuan to buy this rough stone.

Unfortunately, the buyer seems to be very confident in his rough and says that he will only consider selling it when he wants to cut it out.

According to the buyer's wishes, the calcite master made another cut in the other direction of the rough stone.

Luckily, this knife went down and came out green again. And the range of green is twice as large as the previous incision, and the value of this piece of rough stone has risen to 300,000 in an instant.

The buyer still doesn't want to sell, and has made up his mind to cut it all before selling. Continue to make persistent efforts in the rough stone continue to cut a few times, but unfortunately it seems that the potential of this rough stone has been used up before, and it has never been green. Finally, after grinding with a fine grinding wheel, after all the jadeite inside is unraveled, when the true face is revealed, it is a big disappointment.

Although the color of this jadeite is good, it is too small.

The high-spirited buyer's face just now suddenly fell, and in the end, the jadeite was still sold to the merchant who had just bid, but the current price was only 30,000, a difference of 270,000 from the previous one.

It is no wonder that people who gamble on stones often say that gambling stones are poor and rich, with ups and downs, and the gods and ghosts are unpredictable. made Su Zhe sigh, and the price difference was 10 times in a short period of time. And Liu Xiong doesn't seem to be surprised, as if he has seen too many such incidents.

When the results came out, the onlookers dispersed to see the next calcite or pick the rough stone.

Liu Xiong and Su Zhe also went to the rough stone area, and at first the two of them chose the original stone in the same way. But it wasn't long before they separated, each picking wool.

Because their goals are different, Liu Xiong came here to gamble on stones, and Liu Xiong would stay for a long time for every piece of rough stone he was interested in, carefully observing, and tasting whether there was value in purchasing. But Su Zhe never wanted to come over to gamble on stones, but only came here with Liu Xiong. So he looked at each piece, but for a short time.

Su Zhe doesn't like to gamble, because gambling is too uncertain, and gambling stones are even crazier than other gambling. Su Zhe will bet on bettas, and he will bet because he is confident in his bettas.

Although he didn't want to gamble on stones, he was very interested in these rough stones, which looked ordinary on the outside, no different from ordinary stones, but could be sold for such a high price. So Su Zhe walked around the rough stone area, and he would go over each rough stone, take a look, and touch it.

But those who sell well and have high prices, he rarely goes to look at them. Because every time he walked by, there was always a staff member who came to introduce him. Su Zhe had no intention of buying it at all, and the staff's introduction made him very uncomfortable.

Therefore, the rough stones that Su Zhe looked at were all piled up on the ground at random, unlike other rough stones that were specially displayed on display shelves for people to see. The rough stone here is rarely cared for, because the difference in sales is also after many screenings, basically it has been judged that there will be no jadeite wool, so the price is very cheap.

Despite its low price, very few people come to buy it. Counting on this wool to produce jadeite, it is better to buy the odds of winning the lottery ticket.

But Su Zhe didn't know, and even if he knew, he wouldn't care. For him, the rough stones are all the same, and he can't understand them. It's better if no one is here to take care of it, and no one will bother him.

For each rough stone, Su Zhe would squat down, take a look, and then reach out and touch it. Compare each rough stone to see how they differ from each other.

In the end, Su Zhe came to the conclusion that the biggest difference between the rough stones here is that the volume is different, large and small. As for the other differences, Su Zhe has not yet studied them.

Su Zhe looked at dozens of gambling stones in a row, but he couldn't distinguish any other differences between them. Su Zhe, who was already tired, was about to end his research, and he reached out to the rough stone in front of him, intending to stand up with his strength.

But when his hand touched the stone, he froze. Su Zhe felt a longing for him from the depths of the stone, as if he wanted to absorb Su Zhe's divine power. This feeling surprised Su Zhe very much, because this feeling, Su Zhe only felt it from plants or animals, but he had never tried to feel this kind of feeling from dead things.

This piece of rough stone looks no different from other rough stones, the volume is the same size as a basketball, and the appearance is extremely poor, and it is thrown in the corner at will and no one cares.

In order to confirm that his feeling was not wrong, Su Zhe touched his hand to the rough stone next to him, but there was no such feeling. He didn't feel this way when he touched several rough stones, but once he put his hand on the basketball-sized rough stone, he could feel it immediately.
