I was a little dizzy, and I didn't know where He Yongqiang was going to take me. But I can't help it, I can only obey him now.

The car drove for about forty minutes, and finally turned into a rather hidden alley.

I looked at a big house in front of me, and a black Bentley was parked not far away.

I was quite puzzled, and I didn't know what was going on in this house.

After the car was parked, He Yongqiang asked me, "Do you know what kind of place this is?" ”

I shook my head and didn't speak.

He Yongqiang smiled and said, "This place is the holy land of gambling stones in Jianye, and most of the goods are directly transported from Myanmar. When your dad first became famous, it was here that he won a stone in a bet. ”

I looked at the smile on his face, and he really seemed to be remembering something.

I still didn't speak, so I waited quietly for him to speak.

He Yongqiang was silent for a moment before speaking again.

He said: "This time you didn't pay back the money immediately, I can not pursue it for the time being." However, you have to help me pay off my debts. ”

In fact, before he said this, I basically guessed what he meant.

I feel very helpless, as the saying goes, it is difficult for a god to cut off the jade, am I not even a god, how can I guarantee that I will win the bet?

I sighed and said to He Yongqiang sincerely: "Brother Qiang, I will definitely pay back the money I owe you." But gambling on stones is risky, and I really can't guarantee that I will win. You say that if I lose, then how can I pay off your debts? ”

He Yongqiang didn't care about what I said, he smiled and said, "If you want to make a lot of money, how can there be no risk?" You just have to play normally and bet on me. If the bet wins, we will split the money in half. ”

I forced a smile, still with a lot of concern.

I said, "What if I lose my bet?" ”

He Yongqiang clasped his ears and said a little unhappily: "If you really lose, hehe, you know the consequences." ”

Grass you threaten me again!

I cursed inwardly, then lowered my head and grabbed my hair hard.

He Yongqiang patted me on the shoulder with a smile and said, "Take it easy, why do you think you want so much?" Isn't it? As long as you bet on me, won't you have nothing? ”

After he finished speaking, he also helped me tidy up my collar a little, and looked like he was hiding a knife in his smile.

I panicked, but I didn't have a choice, I could only try to calm myself down as quickly as possible.

I exhaled deeply, blinked and nodded.

I said, "Okay, Brother Qiang, I know." ”

He Yongqiang smiled with satisfaction and said, "That's right, let's go, get out of the car." ”

I followed him out of the car and walked in through the main entrance of the house.

The people in the van in the back did not get down.

The two horses in front of him have been following He Yongqiang.

The tall and thin man looked at me with unfriendly eyes, always sympathetic, and seemed to have a big opinion of me.

I didn't care about him, so I followed He Yongqiang all the way inside.

The house was a little bigger than I expected, and after passing through the corridor, I continued to walk inside, and I came to a large exhibition hall. The decoration is quite luxurious, there are many shelves inside, and there are a variety of stones on them.

There are not many people in the entire exhibition hall, there are only five or six groups of people in total, and looking at the costumes, they all seem to be quite rich.

After He Yongqiang walked in with me, a middle-aged man wearing metal glasses immediately greeted me.

He smiled at He Yongqiang and said politely: "I haven't seen you for a long time, Boss He, you haven't come to play for so long, I thought you had retired to the rivers and lakes." ”

He Yongqiang laughed, laughing quite loudly, he said: "How is it possible, aren't I recuperating and waiting for today's outbreak, hahahaha." ”

The middle-aged man looked very surprised and said, "Ouch, then I have to take a good look at what stones you can gamble on today." ”

He Yongqiang greeted the middle-aged man with a smile for a while.

I just stood by and listened.

The middle-aged man's surname was Xu and he was the owner of this place. And judging from He Yongqiang's attitude towards him, the origin of this Boss Xu should not be simple.

After He Yongqiang finished chatting with him, he took me along the shelves.

At this time, I noticed two people standing at the end of the shelf in front of me, a man and a woman.

The woman was very beautiful, with a classical court bun, and her skin was as white as snow.

She is also in good shape and wears a tight long black dress.

Looking from the side, the front is convex and backward, the curves are exposed, and the whole body exudes an elegant lady's temperament.

At the moment, she was carefully observing the stones on the shelves.

The man standing next to her was dressed in a black suit, about the same height as me, but noticeably stronger than me. It seems that he should be the woman's bodyguard, and he seems to be very capable of fighting.

I thought we were just passing by that woman and didn't think much of it.

As a result, when he arrived in front of the woman, He Yongqiang actually stopped.

He looked at the woman and called out politely, "Mrs. L." ”

I frowned slightly, and stood beside me confused.

The woman nodded, turned to look at He Yongqiang, and then fixed her gaze on me.

She looked at me a little strangely, as if she was slightly interested in me as a person.

"Is this what you told me about the master?"

Mrs. L's voice is very good, and it is very recognizable, it belongs to the kind of very soft royal sister voice, and it has a little cool feeling.

He Yongqiang smiled and said, "That's right, it's him." Don't look at him, he seems to be quite ordinary, but he is actually a very powerful connoisseur and knows how to gamble on stones. And so far, he has never lost a bet. ”

Mrs. L's eyebrows raised slightly, and she seemed to look at me with a little more interest.

"Really? Let's get started, and I hope you don't let me down. ”

He Yongqiang nodded again and again and assured: "It must be certain, you can rest assured." ”

As I listened to the conversation between these two people, I felt a lot of pain.

He Yongqiang didn't even choose a stone yet, and He Yongqiang's pen was blown with others. What if I lose the bet? What the hell, if you don't know He Yongqiang, you can kill me on the spot.

I turned the river and the sea in my heart, but on the surface, I still had to pretend to be calm.

That Mrs. L didn't pay attention to He Yongqiang anymore.

She gave me a faint look, then turned her head to look at the stones on the shelves.

He Yongqiang pulled me to the other shelf and said to me, "Okay, you go and choose a stone, choose well, don't be nervous." ”

I said in my heart that you and the hell are about to put a knife on my neck, and I was embarrassed to tell me not to be nervous, I am really convinced. I blinked and nodded sullenly, and without speaking, I stubbornly began to choose stones.

To be honest, I'm panicking right now, because this time I'm not the same as I've gambled on in the past. Before, I was purely trying to win money, but this time, I'm gambling with my life.

I propped my hands on the shelves, slowly adjusting my breathing, and then I was engrossed in my search for good ingredients.

I know very well that only by finding a way to win this stone can I avoid the trouble in the future.

So I have to be more focused, more focused!

I slowly circled around the shelves twice.

Maybe it was because I was so nervous that I didn't even choose a stone I liked.

At this time, the tall and thin man whose fingers I had broken came over with a cigarette in his mouth, and said with disdain: "Are you okay?" I went around a few times and didn't pick a single stone. If you can't do it, you can quickly tell Brother Qiang, don't waste our time here, understand? ”

After hearing the movement, the other inch head hurriedly walked over and pulled him, saying, "Ah Chang, what are you doing?" Didn't Brother Qiang say let's not disturb him? ”

Ah Chang shook off his hand hard, and he said very unhappily: "This kid is a waste, do you really think he can help Brother Qiang make money?" Funny. ”

He glared at me maliciously, then turned around and walked away. The man looked at me, didn't say anything, turned and followed.

I didn't pay attention to those two people the whole time.

I felt quite irritable, so I took out a cigarette and lit it for myself, and I continued to choose the ingredients.

Before I knew it, I was going around the shelves again, and this time, I finally found a stone that I was more satisfied with.

This is about three kilograms of moxisand material, the skin shell is white salt sand, and the sand is very coarse, and there is a manifestation of desanding.

I looked so good that I wanted to take out a flashlight and turn it on.

That's when I remembered that I was in a hurry to go out, and I didn't bring the flashlight that my dad left me.

I lowered my head and pressed my neck, thinking about going to my boss to borrow a flashlight.

As a result, as soon as I looked up, I saw the Mrs. L and her bodyguard walking over just now.

She had a small, flashlight in her hand, and when she got next to me, she stopped to look at the rock I was looking at.

"Selected?"

I hesitated and said, "No." ”

Mrs. L didn't say anything more, just looked at the stone quietly, not knowing what she was thinking.

I looked at her with a frown and I realized that this woman was really beautiful. She is the type that the more you look at it, the more flavorful she becomes, especially the kind of noble lady temperament that she invisibly exudes, which I have never seen in real life.

I looked at her like this for a few seconds, and finally said to her, "Can you lend me that flashlight?" ”

Mrs. L turned her head to look at me, as if she was slightly expectant.

She didn't say anything, just pursed the corners of her lips and let out a very soft nasal sound, and then handed me the small, bright flashlight.

"Thank you."

I answered, took the flashlight and started lighting on the stones.

This piece of material is similar to what I expected, the place where the light is lit looks very transparent, and the color is sky blue, which is very beautiful. I'm sure this stone has a high chance of cutting out high ice seeds, and maybe even glass seeds, and if you add that the material is full and there are no cracks, then it can skyrocket 100%.

But the key question is whether the stone will crack or not, and whether it will mutate.

I was very entangled in my heart, so I could only take the flashlight and look at it carefully over and over again.

Before I knew it, sweat was oozing from my forehead, but I was still not sure.

I raised my hand to wipe my sweat and stared at the stone with wide eyes.

For me, it's already my best bet right now. I can only bet on the water and color of this material, and as for the crack and variant, I really have to resign myself to fate.

I exhaled slowly and returned the flashlight to Mrs. L.

She asked me again, "Chosen now?" ”

I said, "It's chosen." ”

She nodded playfully and said no more.

At this time, He Yongqiang walked over with two horses and the boss Xu.

I asked Boss Xu how much this stone was.

Boss Xu looked at me playfully, then looked at He Yongqiang and asked him, "Boss He, is he gambling on this stone or are you gambling on it?" ”

He Yongqiang smiled and said, "Lao Xu, you are really, why do you know so well?" Can't we gamble together? Besides, he's my brother, don't mess with me. ”

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say."

Boss Xu looked like I knew everything, and said to me with a smile: "Since you are Boss He's brother, then you are also my brother Xu Wanshan." I won't play with you, let's order directly, at a fixed price, you can take this stone for 100,000 yuan. ”

Obviously, this stone is not too expensive to sell for this price, and I guess this may be the case.

So I said to He Yongqiang: "Brother Qiang, we can bet on this stone." ”

He Yongqiang looked at me and smiled, he said, "Then you can buy it, what do you tell me?" ”

I was stunned when I heard this.

I'm just thinking about it. After a long time, it turned out that He Yongqiang, a dog mongrel, wanted me to gamble with my own money. And then I won the bet and had to score half a point with him, what he thought was so beautiful, grass his uncle!

He Yongqiang saw that I was stunned and didn't speak, so he urged me and said, "Brother, why are you stunned?" Didn't you just win more than 100,000 yuan in a bet a few days ago? If you like it, you can just start it. ”

I had a heartbreak.

I can barely scrape together 90,000 yuan now with all my body full, and I can't help it even if I want to.

He Yongqiang saw that I was frowning and didn't say anything for a long time, so he asked me in a low voice, "What's wrong?" Are you too expensive to buy? Or are you going to gamble on another stone? Whatever it means, you should give me a sentence first? ”

I pressed my neck helplessly, and said to He Yongqiang very sincerely: "Brother Qiang, this stone is indeed very good, but I really only have 50,000 yuan on me now, and I can't afford it." ”

He Yongqiang raised his eyebrows, looked at my eyes, obviously a little disbelieving, and said, "Then where did all the money you won back from gambling on stones go?" ”

I said it was spent.

He sneered and asked me again where I spent it?

I stubbornly talked nonsense with him, I said: "It cost nearly 40,000 yuan to buy a bag for my wife, more than 50,000 yuan to find someone to do errands, and less than 10,000 yuan to entertain the leader." ”

He Yongqiang patted me on the shoulder a few times, and then said meaningfully: "It's okay, brother, I didn't see that you can spend!" ”

I knew he was blaming me for not giving him the money back.

I could only say to him in a good voice: "Brother Qiang, I am also forced by life, there is really no way, really, I didn't lie to you." ”

He Yongqiang looked at me suspiciously, and finally smiled sinisterly, and said, "Okay, you have a good look at this stone, right?" ”

I nodded and said, "Yes." ”

"Then I'll sponsor you 50,000, you give me a good bet, don't lose for me, you know?"

He Yongqiang pressed his left hand on my shoulder and squeezed it hard.

I know what he means, if I lose the bet on this stone, I guess he will just pinch me to death.

I have no choice at all, and now whether I bet or not, he may be killed by He Yongqiang, so I can only accept his proposal.

I said, "Thank you, Brother Qiang, I'll give it a try." ”

As soon as I finished saying this, Ah Chang, who was standing next to me, yelled at me: "Try you!" You don't understand what Brother Qiang said, do you? Let me tell you Shen Zhaoyang, if you lose the money you gave Brother Qiang today, I will chop you directly when I go out. ”

To be honest, I really want to blow this pen's head out with one punch right now. But I couldn't do that, I just held back and chose to ignore him.

After paying, I took the stone to the cutting room.

He Yongqiang and his group all followed.

There was no queue here, so I walked over and handed over the material directly to the master who cut the stone.

He asked me, "How do you cut it?" ”

I hesitated for a moment and said, "Let's open the window first." ”

The master looked at me with a little surprise, but he didn't say anything more to me, he said yes, and then began to open the window with a drill.

I habitually lit a cigarette and smoked it slowly.

I don't know why, but I'm not as nervous and panicked as I used to be.

I guess I'm a little numb.

The lady L, who was standing not far from me, had a lady's cigarette in her hand, and gently held the elbow of her right hand with her left hand, and took a puff very gracefully.

I looked at the faint smoke she spit out, and the sexy lips with red lipstick, and I suddenly realized that a woman can smoke so beautifully.

I sighed inwardly, then shook my head and didn't think much more.

At this time, the window of the stone was polished open little by little, and the master took the stone and washed it in the water, and then he was very surprised and said, "Ouch, high ice and blue sky, you are lucky!" ”

As soon as I heard this, my eyes instantly widened.

I looked at the color in that window, it was really sky blue, and it was very clear and transparent.

I was a little excited for a while, and I didn't care about Mrs. L's identity, so I took the bright flashlight directly from her left hand.

I said, "Lend me one." ”

Then I picked up the stone and lit it and looked at it carefully.

The color of this window is really beautiful, although there is no glass species, but the high ice species is already very good. Moreover, the water of this stone is very old, and it is very transparent at a glance.

I knew very well in my heart that the stone had already risen, but it was only how many times it could rise.

Because this material is currently only open a window, if it is really completely cut, there may be variables.

If you sell this stone now, it should be able to sell for about 300,000 yuan. But if it is still full after cutting, it will be at least more than 600,000. It's just that there is a risk in cutting, so some people will choose to shoot the stone right now.

When Boss Xu saw this situation, he came over to me and said, "Brother, you have a good vision, now this window is two or three hundred thousand, if you don't dare to cut it, I will collect two hundred thousand." ”

He Yongqiang obviously doesn't know much about gambling stones, and it is estimated that he usually comes here to have fun casually.

At this time, when he heard Boss Xu's words, he seemed a little surprised, after all, 100,000 became 200,000 in a blink of an eye, and it was impossible to say that he didn't feel it.

He asked me, "What is the situation now?" ”

I told the truth: "Even if this stone can be sold for about 300,000 now, you can continue to cut a knife, this knife may turn this stone into 600,000, or it may be a variant and crack, let alone 300,000 yuan, 30,000 may not be earned." ”

He Yongqiang frowned tightly and did not speak immediately.

I said, "Brother Qiang, it's up to you to decide whether this stone is cut or not." ”

He Yongqiang immediately shook his head, and he said, "This stone is yours, you decide for yourself." ”

Well, as soon as I heard this, I knew that this dog must be trying to do it, but he insisted that I make this decision.

I cursed a few words in my heart, and then I began to wonder whether to cut or not.

That's when I suddenly saw Mrs. L looking at me.

There was a little surprise in her eyes, and a little anticipation, as if she wanted to know what decision I would make next.

I don't know why, but at that moment, I really wanted to prove myself in front of her.

In fact, the probability of this stone winning is more than 50%, and I believe I can win.

So I looked up and exhaled a cloud of smoke, and said very calmly, "I don't sell, I cut." ”
