Chapter 204: Gambling Stone Genius—Jiang Cheng

As the name suggests, gambling stone is wrapped in a layer of weathered skin when the jadeite is mined, and it is impossible to know the quality of the jadeite, and the quality of the jadeite can only be known after cutting.

In addition to normal cutting, there are also many raw jadeite raw materials, the so-called "wool", that are privately acquired, let people buy them, and then cut them on the spot to see their quality.

Therefore, gambling stones also have the saying of "one knife is poor, one knife is rich", some people get rich overnight, and some people go bankrupt overnight.

Instantly, I remembered these words that I had seen on TV.

And the moment the stone appeared, the atmosphere in the hall suddenly became lively, and many people's eyes never left the stone.

I'm the same, I didn't expect to see the real gambling stone on the spot one day, and my heart suddenly became excited.

After the first stone came up, many stones were brought up one after another, but none of them were as big as the first one.

Soon, the stage was filled with stones, about a few hundred.

The smallest stone was about the size of a fist, while the largest was the one half a man tall.

The price of wool is divided by size, and the smaller the stone, the lower the price, ranging from a few hundred pieces to tens of millions.

Because the smaller the stone, the lower the probability of expelling jadeite, the worse the quality, the more likely the large stone, and the better the quality.

Of course, it is not excluded that hundreds of stones will produce high-quality jadeite, and millions of stones will eventually shrink into tens of thousands.

In addition to having eyesight and experience, luck is also very important.

I looked at the fist-sized stone in the corner, thinking about buying a piece to play with and see if I was lucky.

As I was thinking about it, the gambling stone had already begun, and many people had set their sights on the biggest stone.

The man on the stage saw everyone's gaze, pointed to the largest stone and said, "This piece has just been mined, and there are many old pit glass species mined in that mine." ”

Hearing this, the eyes of the people looking at the stone became even hotter.

"Mr. Liu, what you said made me feel like something, just say how much it is." One person is impatient.

"Yes, Mr. Liu, let's talk about it." One person said in a hurry.

The man smiled slightly and stretched out two fingers, "From two million, the price increase will not be less than one hundred thousand each time." ”

I was dumbfounded, I had known for a long time that gambling stones were expensive, but I didn't expect them to be so expensive as soon as I opened my mouth.

I thought so, but the people here didn't.

As soon as the man's words fell, someone immediately shouted: "Two and a half million." ”

A simple sentence directly raised the price by 500,000.

Even so, in the face of such a high price, the people present not only did not retreat, but became excited one by one.

"Three million."

"Three and a half million."

……

"Eight million."

In just a few minutes, the price has soared to eight million.

At this moment, many people have stopped raising the price, and only three people are still competing, and everyone has a plan written on their faces that they will win.

My heart also hangs in my throat, wanting to see who will end up with the flowers.

Suddenly, I remembered that Jiang Cheng did not participate in the auction, and I couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "Don't you want it?" ”

"It's just a common commodity."

I didn't have time to think about the meaning of Jiang Cheng's words, and the auction began again.

"Nine million!"

After one of the old men in Tang clothes said this, the man in the suit among the remaining two shook his head slightly, it seemed that he had withdrawn from this auction, so only the old man in Tang costume and the nouveau riche who had urged him to start quickly were left.

The nouveau riche waved his hand and shouted, "Ten million." ”

The old man didn't blink his eyes, and said unexpectedly: "Eleven million." ”

If it weren't for the fact that there was a 10,000-word character at the back, seeing the old man so breezy and calm, I would have thought he was just saying a thousand and one.

The nouveau riche frowned, "Twelve million." ”

"Thirteen million." The old man followed.

"Fourteen million." At this moment, a lot of sweat faintly appeared on the forehead of the rich man.

The atmosphere suddenly became tense, and many people couldn't help swallowing their saliva, looking at the old man intently, wondering if he was following.

The old man glanced at the stone lightly, then withdrew his gaze and turned to walk back.

In doing so, he gave up the bid.

Seeing this, the man on the stage asked twice in a row if there was a higher price, and when he saw that no one answered, the man said conclusively: "Congratulations to this gentleman, this stone is yours." ”

Hearing this, the atmosphere now reached its highest point, and the nouveau riche also breathed a sigh of relief, and his face was full of joy.

"Sir, would you like to cut it now or take it back?" The man asked with a smile.

"Cut now." The nouveau riche said proudly.

After a while, a cutting machine was brought up, and everyone gathered in a circle, watching the movements of the cutting master without blinking.

With such a big stone, the jadeite that blooms should be good, I thought to myself.

In the nervous and excited anticipation of everyone, the sound of the cutter sounded, and in a few breaths, the inside of the stone appeared in everyone's eyes.

Just when they saw what was opened, everyone was dumbfounded.

The exposed part of the stone is white, it should be a white jade, but there are many black spots in the white, which greatly reduces the price of this jade.

Even if I don't understand jade, I know that the 14 million yuan of the nouveau riche is a waste, and the overall price of this jade may be less than a fraction.

Suddenly, there was a "bang" in my ears.

I turned my head to look and saw that the nouveau riche had fainted, and it seemed that I couldn't stand the blow.

I sighed in my heart, from heaven to hell all at once, no one can stand this gap.

Suddenly, I remembered that I had just asked Jiang Cheng why he didn't bid, and he said it was just an ordinary item.

Could it be that Jiang Cheng knew that this stone was not worthy of its name?

I looked at Jiang Cheng and saw that his face was calm, as if he had known that this would be the case.

The nouveau riche and the stones he photographed were carried down, and the atmosphere returned to its original state, and the enthusiasm of the crowd remained undiminished.

However, this time, instead of choosing a particularly large stone, everyone chose a medium one, which was cut immediately after swiping the card.

The results of the cutting are different, some of them produce the best ice species, some of them are ordinary goods, and the most unlucky one is the kind that has nothing but an ordinary stone.

After sweeping around, I once again focused my gaze on the stone in the corner.

Jiang Cheng noticed my gaze and asked, "Like that piece?" ”

I nodded and said, "I want to try." ”

"Good vision."

After Jiang Cheng said this sentence that made me scratch my head, he summoned a person and asked him to take out the stone I said, and then he himself selected several small stones.

After swiping the card together, someone soon came over to help cut it.

I regard death as home, and let people cut my piece first, so as not to be disappointed in the end.

The cutter put the stone on the cutting machine, and when he was about to cut it, Jiang Cheng said loudly: "Cut vertically." ”

Many people like to cut according to their own ideas, so the cutter did not hesitate, turned around, and cut it with a knife.

In the stone, a touch of green appeared.

Seeing this green color, my heart beat violently, and I said in disbelief: "There is jade? ”

The answer to me was the cutter's words, "Yes, miss, do you still need to cut it?" ”

"Cut!" I excitedly said.

After a few cuts, the green grew bigger and bigger.

In the end, the jadeite cut out of the original fist-sized stone was only about half the size of an egg.

I can't see the quality of the jadeite, but it doesn't hinder the excitement in my heart.

I put the jade in the palm of my hand and showed it to Jiang Cheng like a treasure.

"Ah Cheng, look, I've opened the jade."

Jiang Cheng rubbed my hair and praised, "My Yao'er is so amazing." ”

I glanced at him triumphantly and said happily, "Of course, don't look at who I am." By the way, yours, cut it too, I'll take a look. ”

"Okay." Jiang Cheng smiled indulgently, and then said to the cutting master: "These are all cut on the ground." ”

Under Jiang Cheng's command, the first stone was cut out, and when I saw the flawless white, I only felt that my breathing was tight.

"What is this?"

"This is the best mutton fat jade." The cutter became excited.

I was amazed, it turned out to be mutton fat jade! It's still superb!

In an instant, I felt that the piece of jade in my hand was not enough to see.

Compared with me, Jiang Cheng was much calmer, and directly put the freshly opened, egg-sized mutton fat jade in my hand, and then commanded to cut the rest.

Waiting for the second piece to come out, I was suddenly not calm.

The first piece is the best mutton fat jade, and the second piece is a rare imperial green.

Is Jiang Cheng so rebellious? Two pieces of jade in a row?

Xu was too much movement on our side, and many people surrounded him, and when they saw the three pieces of jade in my hand, everyone changed color.

"All three of them just opened?" Someone couldn't help but ask.

"Yes, it's all this gentleman and young lady." The cutting master said excitedly, looking at Jiang Cheng's eyes very hot.

Some people buy a bunch of them, and it's good to be able to prescribe a superb one.

Now we have two superb products except for the ones I picked myself, so everyone else is not calm.

In the stunned effort, the third stone was also cut, this time it was an ice jade, which was also top-notch.

In an instant, I heard the sound of gasping all around me.

And I was hit one after another, and my heart was surprisingly calm.

Now, I wouldn't be surprised if all the stones on the ground were jade.

That's true, but when all the jade is opened, I can't help but gasp, and there is only one sentence left in my mind.

Jiang Cheng is a gambling genius!

The five stones selected by Jiang Cheng, without exception, were all jade, and they were all top-notch.

The only piece that is the worst is the ice glutinous jadeite, but it is also better than the one in my hand, I don't know how many times.

"Do you have X-rays in your eyes? How to choose which piece to choose, which one has jade? I asked excitedly.

When the people around me heard my words, they all looked at Jiang Cheng, and their fiery eyes were even scared when I looked at them.

Jiang Chengmei is the same, with indescribable confidence and arrogance, "You can treat me as a genius." ”

I was struck by this sentence, but I also have to say that Jiang Cheng is really a genius.

If he wants, he doesn't need to open a company, just gambling on stones can make him rich.

But fortunately, although Jiang Cheng gambled, he was not addicted, otherwise I would really become a gambler, and I wouldn't even find a place to cry.

Suddenly, I saw that many people around me looked at Jiang Cheng hesitantly, looking like they wanted to come up but didn't dare to come up.

When someone finally mustered up the courage to walk towards us, a person who looked like a bodyguard quickly walked from the side and said respectfully to Jiang Cheng: "Mr. Jiang, our husband is invited." ”
