Chapter 71: The Ghost Market (I)

Hou Lao saw Boss Meng on the side, his eyes were staring at the piece of wool, and he hurriedly asked, "Xiao Chu, what are you going to do next?" ”

Chu Chen looked around and said with a smile: "Old Hou, it's not very convenient to talk about things here, why don't we change places?" ”

"Haha, look at me, let's go, let's go to the reception room in my store." Hou Lao hurriedly said apologetically.

After Chu Chen and the others left, the onlookers immediately started to discuss.

The old man before sighed: "I didn't expect it, the glass emerald and the ice apple green are all the only ones I have seen in my life. ”

"That's true, but that little brother can actually rise twice in a row, I have to say that he is the head of fortune!" The middle-aged man sighed enviously.

However, his companion sang a duet with him again: "Hey, if you want me to say, this is because that little brother has good eyesight, and he has no strength just by luck, how can he rise twice in a row?" And that little brother is full of courage and good heart, this kind of person will definitely not be a thing in the pool in the future! ”

"Let's Jean! Let's Jean! You guys, if you have time to sigh, it's better to learn from me, find a few pieces of material to solve it, maybe you can get a little luck and have a small rise! ”

A man in his thirties, holding three pieces of wool, rushed to the stone dissolving machine as he spoke, and said hurriedly: "This master, hurry up and help me solve it, maybe the God of Wealth hasn't gone far yet!" ”

When everyone saw this scene, they could only shake their heads speechlessly.

In the reception room, everyone admired the two pieces of jadeite raw materials on the table, and they were amazed, this kind of high-grade jadeite is really rare. Especially the two girls, with confusion in their eyes, who makes jewelry a woman's most haode friend?

"Uh-huh"

Hou Lao coughed lightly, turned everyone's attention, and then said with a smile:

"Xiao Chu, let's talk about this piece of apple green material, you know, I urgently need this high-grade jade in my store. Anyway, I won't say more, just ask you to help, set a suitable price, let's leave it, what do you think? ”

Chu Chen scratched his head and said with a smile: "Old Hou, this price is more suitable for you to open, I opened it high, let's also hurt our feelings, don't you say?" ”

After hearing this, Hou Lao lowered his head and pondered for a while, then turned around and whispered to Boss Meng on the side.

If this piece of material Hou Lao did not buy the piece of emerald may still be eaten, now a single party can no longer eat, since one person can not eat, then simply buy it in partnership, and then divide it, which is currently the most beneficial choice for both parties.

After a while, the two of them were almost communicating, and Hou Lao said sincerely: "Xiao Chu, you should also know some of the market situation in our western region, this piece of material, we will pay 10.8 million, what do you think?" ”

Chu Chen thought about it for a while, and then smiled: "Old Hou, you are so simple, of course I won't hold back, okay, then this price." ”

10.8 million, if you want to say more, it's definitely not much, if you go to the capital or the southern market, the price will definitely be higher, but in terms of the western market, it is already very good, and this price is also in line with Chu Chen's expectations.

Besides, this piece of wool was bought from someone else after all, Chu Chen eats meat, he always wants to let others drink soup, do business, or make money in harmony, maybe one day, he may even trouble others.

Hou Lao and Boss Meng looked at Chu Chen nervously, and when they heard him agree to the offer, they both breathed a sigh of relief, and then a smile appeared on their faces. And Zhou Wenping and the others, when they heard this price, they also showed envious expressions, but they didn't expect that in the blink of an eye, Chu Chen would become a multimillionaire.

"By the way, Xiao Chu, what do you want us to do about this emerald?" Seeing that the deal had been reached, Hou Lao hurriedly asked about another piece of jadeite.

"That's the case, Mr. Hou, you also know that such glass emeralds are rare, so I want to keep them and appreciate them, let's wait for tomorrow to trade, do you see it?" Chu Chen said with some embarrassment.

In fact, if he hadn't used up all of his abilities today, he wouldn't have made this request, knowing that this was nearly three million jade psionic powers, and it would be a pity if he didn't absorb them.

Others didn't find it strange when they heard it, and if it were themselves, it would be the same.

When Hou Lao heard that it was such a trivial matter, he was also relieved, and said with a smile:

"Of course it's okay, but tomorrow the bank won't be open, let's sign the contract together today, and then transfer it directly, as for the jade, you can give it to me tomorrow." (Some bank branches seem to be open on Saturdays, so if you feel that there is a problem, please bear with us.)

Chu Chen didn't expect Elder Hou to say this, which made him a little entangled, this signing of the contract, will it have an impact on the absorption of the ability? But Hou Lao said this, if he refuses again, he will show some coquettishness, at this time he regrets a little, he knew this, this raw material might as well not be sold!

But now that it's like this, I can only relax, but think about it, three million is not much, I didn't see that 10 million was earned so easily! Thinking like this, Chu Chen was relieved, so he nodded and agreed.

When the two parties signed the contract, Chu Chen included the piece of black and white jade that Hou Yuanming asked for before, and he didn't ask for money, it was given to Hou Yuanming, which also made Hou Yuan obviously a little embarrassed.

The next transfer was also very smooth, after the transaction was completed, Hou Lao and Boss Meng left to discuss the follow-up of the jadeite, and Hou Yuanming gave Chu Chen a portable safe, so that the security aspect can also be reassuring.

Everything was done, and it was already past four o'clock in the afternoon. After such a thrilling gambling process, everyone's body and mind were tired, so Hou Yuanming proposed that everyone go to drink tea and rest together, and then he made the east and invited them to the famous Xijing Hotel to taste the delicious food there.

Everyone had no opinion on this proposal, so Hou Yuanming took them to a teahouse with a lot of charm.

As soon as Chu Chen sat down, his mobile phone rang, and when he saw the number, it was actually Zhao Qirui's number, so he immediately picked it up.

"Hey, Brother Zhao, I'm Chu Chen, what are you looking for me?"

"Hehe, Xiao Chu, I just want to ask, is there any news about the painting I asked you to find before? If not, you don't need to look for it, my friend has already helped me find a work by Wu Changshuo. ”

"Brother Zhao, I really want to congratulate you, but I also want to apologize to you, before, I got a work by Zheng Banqiao, but I want to collect it myself, so I ......"

Chu didn't want to mention this matter, but after thinking about it, he decided to tell the truth, after all, the antique market is really not big, rather than Zhao Qirui listening to others mention it in the future, it is better to say it himself, so as to avoid Zhao Qirui misunderstanding.

"Good guy, you have all the works of Zheng Banqiao, you have to give me a good appreciation one day." On the phone, Zhao Qirui's voice was not angry.

Chu Chen immediately said: "Of course this is no problem, but I am still in the field, and the painting is still with Liu Zhi and Liu Lao, and after a while, I will show it to you." ”

"Oh, that's no problem, but I'm curious, Liu Lao didn't ask you to buy such a work?"

"At that time, he also wanted it, but didn't I want to collect it myself, so I didn't agree." Speaking of this, Chu Chen thought to himself, he didn't even sell Liu Lao, so you won't be angry if you think about it.

"Hehe, then you go and get busy, we'll contact you when you have time."

After Chu Chen hung up the phone, he was also relieved in his heart, listening to Zhao Qirui's tone, it should be fine. But when he looked up at the others, he saw that everyone was staring at him motionlessly.

"What's wrong?"

Seeing this, Chu Chen asked a little strangely.

Li Guodong said angrily: "Xiaochen, why haven't we heard that you have Zheng Banqiao's works, you are hiding such things, you are too uninteresting." ”

"That's it!"

The others also nodded again and again, and they all put on a look of appealing to Chu Chen.

"I'm too embarrassed to say it."

Seeing this, Chu Chen hurriedly told him how he got the painting, and then said, "You say, what do I say about this?" Wouldn't it be a show if I said it myself? ”

"Hmph, even if it's shown, it's better than hiding it, Yulan, do you say?"

Seeing Chu Yulan nodding in agreement, Wen Yuting continued: "Brother Chu, weishenme, you are so lucky, picking up leaks has become commonplace, are you lucky every day?" No, we have to see that Zheng Banqiao's work too! ”

"Good, good! Am I still not satisfied? "Chu Chen was really a little crying and laughing when he saw this, didn't he just pick up a leak, and he didn't have to treat me as a class enemy.

Hou Yuanming also smiled: "Xiao Chu, you really can't say how lucky you are, I just can't be jealous if I want to, but since you are so lucky, then you must go to the ghost market tomorrow." ”

The so-called "ghost market" is, simply put, an underground market in the antique world.

In fact, the ghost market has existed for a long time, but it has become a special antique trading place since the Qing Dynasty.

When the Qing soldiers entered the customs and became the rulers of course, but with the continuation of time, the war gradually subsided, and many descendants of the nobles walked every day and became the children of the gentlemen.

Later, those gentlemen had no money to live, and they also took the treasures left by the elders in the family to exchange for money and flowers, went to the pawnshop for fear of losing face, and also took the treasures to the "ghost market" to sell for money. There are also those who collect rags, receive things from large families, or receive stolen things, and also rush to the "ghost market" to make money.
