Chapter 77: My Heart Is Sinking to the End (Nine Watches)
Ye Ling's cold gaze was withdrawn from Zhao Min,
"Where's the entrance to the inner garden?"
"Over there!"
Ding Ling pointed to the intersection ahead and hurriedly answered Ye Ling's question.
Ye Ling raised his feet and left, walking in the direction that Ding Ling was pointing to.
It wasn't until Ye Ling walked out more than ten meters away that Ding Ling and Zhao Min felt lighter, and the cold aura disappeared.
Especially Zhao Min, when she reacted, she suddenly realized that her back was actually soaked.
What the hell is going on, and why is that man so terrible?
"Xiaomin, I'll go first. ”
Ding Ling also reacted at this time, only to find that Ye Ling had already dumped her and left by herself, so she hurriedly said a word to Zhao Min and prepared to catch up.
"Don't go. ”
Zhao Min didn't give up, and grabbed Ding Ling,
"The gambling stone conference in the inner garden has not started yet, I will also participate in it in a while, let's go together, now cut your stone first, although it can almost be concluded that it is a waste stone, but after all, it is bought with money, and it cannot be thrown away. ”
"I don't want to cut it right now. Ding Ling replied that she didn't want to go to the inner garden with Zhao Min either.
"Don't you want to lose it? In the gambling stone conference in the inner garden for a while, you are definitely not allowed to bring this thing in. ”
Zhao Min was speechless when Ding Ling was speechless.
After listening to Zhao Min's words, Ding Ling reacted, yes, in the gambling stone conference in the inner garden, participants are not allowed to bring any rough stones into it, in case some families fish in troubled waters and replace the original stones prepared by the gambling stone conference.
Ding Ling looked up at Zhao Min, and then turned her head to look at the direction where Ye Lin disappeared, although she wanted to catch up, but Zhao Min was right, she couldn't enter the inner garden with such a large piece of rough stone, so she could only find a place to cut it first.
"There's a shop over there that gives you free stone cutting, let's go. ”
Ding Ling said a word, pulled his pocket and walked to the front, while Zhao Min followed behind.
Soon, the two women arrived at their destination, a very small store, and the stones displayed in it could be seen at a glance, and there were dozens of them in total.
The boss is a white-bearded old man, sitting on a small stool at the door, rubbing the machine used to cut stones, there are no customers, this kind of small shop is usually very deserted, generally by the old gamblers, who have played gambling stones all their lives, and will open such a small rough stone shop for the sake of interest and a livelihood.
The owner of this kind of store is, if you make money, you can earn it, and it doesn't matter if you don't make it, and the utilitarianism is not so strong.
"Uncle, will you cut down the stone?"
Ding Ling pushed the bag containing the stone to the stone cutting machine and said politely to the old man.
The white-bearded old man glanced at Ding Ling, "Little girl, you are really lucky, I just finished the knife, you are here, take out the stone, cut it in half or cut it all in?"
"Cut it all. ”
Ding Ling said with a smile, Zhao Min next to him looked at the small shop in front of him, pursed his lips, and seemed to look down on it.
The white-bearded old man squatted down, opened his pocket, and took out the stone ruffian with soil inside, Zhao Min saw this scene and couldn't help but say,
"Uncle, be careful, don't cut the contents into pieces. ”
"Hey, you little girl, how do you talk?"
The white-bearded old man was a little displeased when he heard this, "I cut stones for you for free, but you came to question the old man's stone-cutting skills, don't look at my small shop, but the old man, I have played with stones all my life, and I can still reach my old age, and I can't smash the signboard?"
As the saying goes, if you don't have that diamond diamond, you can't stop the porcelain work, and the old man dares to cut stones for free, and the level must be tough enough.
"Uncle, my friend is also worried that the stone will be broken, don't be angry, cut it quickly. ”
Ding Ling secretly said that Zhao Min couldn't speak, but she couldn't say anything about Zhao Min, so she could only make amends to the old man.
"I'm so old, how can I have a lot of trouble with you two little girls. ”
The old man shook his head, "Look at the stone you bought, it looks like an inferior product, and the probability of producing a treasure is as small as the eye of a needle. ”
"Look, I'll just say this stone won't work. ”
As soon as Zhao Min heard the old man's words, he suddenly had a feeling that his opinion had been recognized by authority, and said to Ding Ling a little proudly.
Ding Ling didn't speak, but after listening to the old man's words, her heart also sank, and she secretly said that she might have really spent this money in vain, and she shouldn't have been impulsive at that time.
Although Ding Ling thinks that Ye Ling's ability to appreciate treasures is very powerful, Ye Ling didn't buy this stone, which proves that Ye Ling is not very optimistic about this stone, she bought it impulsively, and now it seems that she is going to lose money.
"Thorn la la ......"
The old man began to cut stones, the sound of friction made Ding Ling feel like he was about to unveil the mystery, and his heart became more and more nervous, although he knew that the probability of a baby was not large, but he still couldn't help praying in his heart,
"Let's make a piece of jade, even if it's an ordinary jade, just buy a few thousand yuan, don't seek to make money, as long as you don't lose money." ’
"Bang, bang, bang......"
As one stone after another was thrown out of the stone-cutting machine, it fell to the ground and made a collision sound, as if it had smashed on Ding Ling's heart, making her heart more and more nervous.
And the stone, as it was cut, quickly became smaller, smaller and smaller, and in a blink of an eye, it was the size of a palm, but from the incision, there was still no jade color.
Seeing this scene, Zhao Min couldn't help but mutter, "Judging from the current situation, it is estimated that there are not even a few jade pieces." ”
Ding Ling didn't speak, but she was almost hopeless in her heart, and her firm confidence in Ye Ling's ability to appreciate treasures was also seriously shaken.
Yes, Brother Ye's treasure appreciation ability may be outstanding, but as Wen Qingyuan's tour guide, she should know very well that no matter how powerful a treasure connoisseur is, she never misses a hundred shots, and never sees the wrong thing.
Therefore, the stone she bought can't be treasured, and she can't blame Brother Ye for her lack of ability, it can only be said that she is too unlucky.
The stone cutting was still continuing, and even the trace of expectation on the white-haired old man's face was completely gone, and he shook his head while cutting,
"Hey, waste rock, the girl's money is gone. ”
However, this old man is also a man of professional principles, although he has concluded in his heart that this stone is a waste stone, he is still very serious about cutting stones, and there is no sign of carelessness.
"Sting!~"
suddenly
Just when Ding Ling's heart had completely sunk to the bottom, and when he shook his head and withdrew his gaze from the stone, the stone that was already the size of half a palm's palm was left, and the knife that cut the stone cut into it violently, and the old man's hand was light, and a large stone chip flew out.
Everyone was attracted by this sudden movement, and the two women thought that the old man's hand had slipped into something, but when their eyes fell on the stone, the two women's bodies trembled in unison, and their pupils instantly dilated.
