Chapter 95: The Crazy Stone (1)
After coming to the hotel, because of the fatigue of the journey along the way, everyone was not interested in going out to play, but after a hasty dinner, they went back to their respective rooms to rest, and Chu Chen also reminded the two girls to be vigilant.
There was nothing to do all night, probably because of his good physical fitness, coupled with the excitement, Chu Chen didn't sleep much all night, and he was always worried that he would be able to gamble on stones soon, so most of the night, he was tossing and turning.
Since he couldn't sleep, Chu Chen got up early, and after washing up, he punched a few times to calm his mind. Finally calmed down, he couldn't help but sigh, he was still too young to hold his breath.
Getting up too early, there was nothing else to do, Chu Chen turned on the TV, and randomly switched a few stations to watch, but although his eyes were fixed on the screen, his mind was sorting out the information related to the gambling stone, which was no way, who let the ability only be used five times a day?
People have something to do, time tends to pass quickly, only then did he feel that a few points had been sorted out, Chu Chen found that the sky was already dawn, and when he heard Liu Zhiqing's footsteps, Chu Chen also went out with him.
While eating breakfast, Liu Zhiqing asked Chu Chen, "Xiao Chu, I didn't sleep yesterday." ”
Seeing that Chu Chen had a na, he smiled and said: "What's so embarrassing about this, wasn't it the same when I came here for the first time, I didn't sleep all night, and I went to gamble on stones with panda eyes, and I lost miserably!" So I also want to remind you that you are too excited, so you must be cautious when you start. ”
Chu Chen's good physique, although he slept for a while, his spirit was already full, but for ordinary people, Liu Yuqing's reminder was undoubtedly a golden and jade good word, so after listening to it, he expressed his gratitude again and again.
When everyone gathered, take a look, and besides Hou Yuanming, the other three Xinding were all full of interest and gearing up, but the three of them were all wearing panda eyes without exception.
After everyone finished breakfast, Hou Yuanming waved his hand: "Let's go, let's go to Jade Street to have a look." ”
After receiving this order, everyone immediately rushed to get into a van and rushed straight to Jade Street.
When it comes to China's jadeite industry, we have to talk about Tengchong this place. The large-scale jadeite industry began in the middle of the Ming Dynasty and flourished in the Qing Dynasty. Before the fifties of the twentieth century, Tengchong has always been the largest distribution center, trading center and processing base of Myanmar jade, with the reputation of "Emerald City", and it is also the only import channel in the country.
However, due to well-known reasons, it was not until the seventies of the last century that the country introduced a policy of developing foreign trade, and Tengchong's jadeite wool business began to prosper again for a while, and in the next two or three decades, Tengchong began to play an important role in the distribution center of jadeite trading again.
However, in the late 90s, when the Burmese government announced that it would not allow private traders to trade in jadeite rough, it undoubtedly blocked the smuggling routes of most Myanmar merchants across the border. Tengchong's jadeite trade began to gradually return to Myanmar, so Tengchong's jadeite market also began to enter a cold winter period.
It wasn't very far from the inn to Jade Street, and after a while, a street that looked rather old came into view.
Although it is called a street, there are not shops on both sides of the road, but places with plastic roofs everywhere, just like ordinary vegetable markets. Under the roof, there are piles of large and small wool materials everywhere, and the way of trading is similar to that of the vegetable market, and the whole scene makes Chu Chen feel like he is rushing to the market.
Although a few people came early, there were already a lot of people on the street, and a few stone dissolving machines were already working there, and it seemed to be quite lively.
Walking on the road of Jade Street, Hou Yuanming sighed and said: "In the early nineties, when I first came here, it was really full of people, and wool was cutting everywhere. ”
Although Hou Yuanming said this, for Chu Chen, the four newcomers, the scene in front of them had already opened their eyes and amazed them. If it was really as lively as Hou Yuanming said before, the four of them really couldn't imagine that kind of scene.
However, seeing that there are so many wool materials, it also makes Chu Chen a little stupid, these jade wool materials, in terms of quality alone, are not inferior to the Juyuan Pavilion in the capital. In other words, there was a lot of wool that could contain jadeite, but his ability could only be used five times a day, which made him a little overwhelmed.
In fact, the reason for the quality of the wool here is also simple, in Myanmar, the real performance of the haode wool is first picked up by the Myanmar government, or ore merchants to hide it, either stored and waited for the price to rise or put on the Myanmar public market with fierce price competition for sale.
The wool material with poor performance is selected by the larger jeweler, so that the wool that comes down layer by layer and finally goes to the buyer's hand, to put it mildly, is all leftovers, and the Tengchong wool that is closer to the source of goods is undoubtedly selected less often.
So even the wool on the ordinary stalls on this jade street is no worse than that from Juyuan Pavilion, that's the reason. As for Zhang Guosheng's Cuiyuanzhai wool, it is completely picked off leftovers, which are generally used as garbage here, and they are not worth a few dollars at all.
"Let's go, we're at the place, let's go and have a look." Liu Zhiqing patted Chu Chen's shoulder and said.
got this order, the happiest person is Wen Yuting, she is a typical person to go crazy, and there is the excitement of gambling before, when she sees these wool, her eyes are shining, regardless of thirty-seven twenty-one, she chose a stall and picked it up.
The boss here, who is not a human spirit, as soon as he saw Wen Yuting's movements, he knew that she was a new novice who could not be newer, and immediately encouraged his three-inch incorruptible tongue, and said with a smile:
"This girl, let me tell you, the wool I have here is directly pulled from the mine, all of them are the materials of the old pit, which is cheap and easy to produce high cui, I don't believe you ask others, the day before yesterday someone else gambled on glass in my place, you choose a few pieces to bet on, I guarantee that I can't lose you."
"Really?" When Wen Yuting heard that the glass seed was opened, blue light was emitted from both eyes, and the boss who saw it shivered.
Just when Wen Yuting believed it and was about to choose wool, Li Guodong, who was favored by Chu Chen, hurriedly pulled her up.
"What are you doing, I've seen a few pieces of wool." Wen Yuting threw Li Guodong's hand and said with some indignation.
Chu Chen hurriedly explained: "Xiaowen, don't blame Brother Li, I asked him to pull you over." ”
"What? Could it be that the boss lied? He shouldn't be panicked about opening the glass seed, just ask around, right? Wen Yuting asked a little strangely.
"Hehe, said panicked, but your state is not suitable for the selection of wool, you must know that gambling stone is a ten gambling nine lose industry, he said that before the glass species, is there must be a lot of glass in the remaining stones? If that's the case, then what's the glass worth? Chu Chen said earnestly.
After Chu Chen's reminder, Wen Yuting also reacted a little, and said strangely: "Brother Chu, isn't this you?" As long as you zuihou help me check the gates, then it's no problem! ”
Before Chu Chen could say anything, Chu Yulan smiled and said: "Yuting, your attitude is not right, do you want Brother Chu to keep an eye on you, think about it, how can Brother Chu have so much time and obligation to help you do these things." ”
After Wen Yuting heard this, she also reacted, Chu Chen was not her person, she didn't have so much time and obligation to help her, and her previous thoughts were too difficult to avoid.
Look at Li Guodong next to him, for his own sake, obviously he himself has a lot of research on gambling stones, but in order to help himself, he missed the opportunity to gamble on stones in Xijing last time. Thinking of this, she suddenly reflected on her behavior, was her previous self a little too selfish?
Seeing this, Chu Chen hurriedly said: "Xiaowen, I heard that you have made up some knowledge of gambling stones before, so you will pick and choose according to what you have learned, and I will also help you check when you go to Zuihou." ”
"Brother Chu, then Xiexie you."
After Wen Yuting thanked Chu Chen, she said to Li Guodong: "Guodong, let's compare and see who is more powerful in the end." ”
"Okay, no problem, don't cry if you lose in a while."
"Hehe, I'll take a look, do you dare to make my aunt and grandmother cry."
Wen Yuting's words immediately made Li Guodong silent.
When Chu Chen saw this, he was speechless for a while, if Brother Li was really with Wen Yuting, tracheitis would be decided.
Next, Chu Chen considered that it was not easy for Liu Zhiqing and Hou Yuanming to recharge at one time, if the two of them followed the four of them, it would undoubtedly be a little inconvenient to move, and with him following Chu Yulan and them, there was no need to worry about safety, and now that they have mobile phones, it is more convenient to contact, so he suggested:
"Brother Liu, Brother Hou, then you act on your own, I'll take the three of them around first, and we'll contact us on our phones later."
Liu Zhiqing originally had something to do when he came to Jade Street, and although Hou Yuanming made a temporary decision this time, he also had business matters to do, so the two of them readily agreed to Chu Chen's proposal, and reminded them to pay attention to safety before leaving.
In the next time, Chu Chen took Li Guodong and the three of them to wander around in front of various stalls, listening to some old players commenting on wool, and they also grew a lot of knowledge, and Wen Yuting compared her previous knowledge from time to time, and the learning effect was undoubtedly much better than reading books by herself.
