Chapter 143: The Gambling Stone Turmoil (I)

Wen Xu took these nude photos of Lu Hang, which was naturally not a spoof, but just a means to prevent Lu Hang from settling accounts with Guo Xingyun and Shen Ling'er.

Wen Xu handed over these photos to Guo Xingyun for safekeeping, and instructed: "You must keep these photos properly, and you can't let Lu Airlines take them, nor can you leak them out at will." Also, although these photos can serve as a deterrent, you should also be careful, I don't think the land aviation will stop there. ”

Guo Xingyun nodded, put away the memory card containing the photos, waved his hand and said to Wen Xu: "Don't worry, I'll pay attention." ”

The next day, Wen Xu wanted to go shopping on the street, but Guo Xingyun didn't go back immediately, and the three of them had breakfast and walked around Jade Street, which specializes in jade.

Last night, Wen Xu saved Shen Ling'er, although Shen Ling'er didn't say anything, but he was very grateful in his heart, and when he heard that Wen Xu was interested in the jade in his hometown, he took the initiative to ask Ying to explain the origin of various stones to Wen Xu.

"Brother Wen, that's the glass seed. Glass jadeite, as the name suggests, is as transparent as glass, the quality is very fine, the crystalline particles are dense, and it is the best in jadeite. A very intuitive feature of glass is that it is intuitively fluorescent to the naked eye, which is what experts call 'fluorescence'. Shen Ling'er pointed to a Guanyin pendant and introduced it to Wen Xu.

Before Wen Xu came to Yunnan, he had read the introduction of jadeite and jade, and knew that glass was the most precious kind of jadeite, and glass of the same quality was more expensive than ice and water. Especially the glass imperial green jadeite, any pendant is more than a few million.

Wen Xu looked at this green Guanyin pendant, crystal clear, lush, Guanyin was also carved very beautifully, and couldn't help but ask Shen Ling'er: "How much is this one?" ”

Shen Ling'er pursed her lips and smiled, and explained to Wen Xu: "This Guanyin is hanging here, it should be the treasure of this store, and it is not for sale." However, if I were to estimate it, the price of this Guanyin jade should be between 3.2 million and 3.5 million. ”

"Girl's eyesight!" An old man with gray hair walked out of it and said to Shen Ling'er with a smile, "This Guanyin jade was bought by me a few years ago, when the price of jadeite had not yet risen, for one million and eight hundred thousand. At current prices, three million is considered cheap. ”

When Wen Xu and Guo Xingyun heard the old man's words, they couldn't help but sigh, one million and eight hundred thousand things will become three million in a few years, and the profits of this jade are really scary!

The old man seemed to see Wen Xu and Guo Xingyun's thoughts, and touched the white goatee and smiled: "Young man, don't look at me, I have made more than one million in one moment, but the risks are also huge." If you buy a fake or something of bad grade, the loss is also very serious. ”

"There are both benefits and risks." Wen Xu smiled slightly, nodded and said.

The old man continued: "There is still a difference between our business and those who gamble on stones. Those who gamble on stones value money more, and in addition to money, our interest in stones is also a big motivation. ”

Wen Xu nodded, pointed to the Guanyin pendant and asked the old man: "Old man, your pendant is so beautiful, I don't know how much it costs to transfer it?" ”

The old man's gaze suddenly became cautious, he looked Wen Xu up and down, and asked loudly, "What, do you want to buy it?" ”

Wen Xu shook his head with a smile and said, "I'm just a poor student, how can I have spare money to buy such a good thing, I just look beautiful and ask casually." ”

When the old man heard Wen Xu's words, he was immediately relieved, looked at the pendant and said: "Little brother, let me tell you the truth, I won't sell this Guanyin for any money, just like what the little girl said just now, my Guanyin jade is a treasure of calm." When you are old in the future, it is better to leave this to your children and grandchildren than to keep millions of dollars, right? ”

Wen Xu smiled and nodded, only to hear the old man say again: "If you really want to have something like this, but you don't want to spend a high price, you can go to the stone shop over there to have a look." There was a whole bunch of fine stones from the Burmese sinkhole last night, and if you're lucky, you might be able to grow a glass of glass. ”

The old man is talking about gambling stones. Since the current technology cannot detect the structure inside the wool, I don't know if there is jadeite in it, and whether the quality of the jadeite is good or not, so there is a huge risk every time the stone is opened. With great risks comes great benefits. Some bold people who want to get rich overnight buy wool at a low price, then ask someone to cut the stone, and finally bet on whether there is a good jadeite inside. Gambling stones are extremely risky, no less than gambling in casinos, but because the state does not explicitly prohibit it, many people are not aware of the harm.

When Shen Ling'er heard the old man's words, her face suddenly darkened, and she looked at Wen Xu uneasily, because her father Shen Funiu was ruined because of gambling stones, so she didn't want Wen Xu to gamble.

However, Wen Xu immediately disappointed Shen Ling'er, because Wen Xu took the initiative to ask the old man for directions, and was going to go over to have a look, and he wanted to gamble.

In fact, Wen Xu wanted to go to the gambling stone not to look for the excitement of gambling at all, but to test how well he had learned about jade. As a part of killer learning, how to gamble on stones and identify jadeite is also an ability that top killers must have. You don't have to be proficient, but you must.

Since the stone shop just brought a batch of good materials from Myanmar yesterday, the business is very good now. The lively scene of the crowd formed a contrasting picture with Shen Ling'er's restless face.

Wen Xu knew Shen Ling'er's worries, and couldn't help patting her on the shoulder and said, "Ling'er, I'm just going to gamble on the stone to try it superficially, and I won't take a lot of money to play with my life, you can rest assured." ”

For some reason, as soon as Shen Ling'er saw Wen Xu's smile, her uneasy heart calmed down, and then a shallow flush floated on her face, like a bright rose after the rain.

Although she still felt that it was inappropriate in her heart, Shen Ling'er nodded lightly at Wen Xu, and instructed Wen Xu like a wife: "Brother Wen, look carefully. ”

"I know." Wen Xu nodded with a smile.

Guo Xingyun, who was on the side, looked at the two of them depressedly, couldn't help but shake his head, and sighed in his heart: "What a good little flower, but it fell into the quagmire without regrets."

Wen Xu had about 60,000 yuan in cash on his body, half of which he took from Kunming and half from the scammer's pocket, he first divided the 60,000 yuan in cash into two, leaving 50,000 yuan for backup, and then took out one yuan to buy stones.

The stall outside the stone shop was full of all kinds of wool stones, and several people were there to watch to prevent anyone from fishing in troubled waters, one person was responsible for weighing next to the big scale, one person was responsible for collecting money, and the boss stood by the stall shouting whether to explain to the buyer.

Wen Xu looked at the scattered wool, and suddenly had a feeling in his heart, pulling towards one of the wool materials that was not favored. Compared to other wool materials, this wool does not seem to look very good from both the size and the leather surface, but Wen Xu feels that this wool contains a special energy.

"How do you sell this piece of wool?" Wen Xu asked the stall owner.

The stall owner glanced at Wen Xu, and saw that the wool in his hand belonged to the inferior wool that almost no one wanted, and he didn't let him pass the scale, so he said directly to Wen Xu: "If you give a thousand, take it!" ”

"How about eight hundred, it's auspicious!" Wen Xu didn't bargain with the stall owner for the two hundred yuan, but he just didn't want to agree.

The stall owner didn't seem to value the two hundred yuan very much, waved his hand, and said impatiently: "Eight hundred is eight hundred, but I want cash." ”

The stall owner's proposal fell into Wen Xu's heart, and Wen Xu didn't bother to transfer money for the 800 yuan, so he directly took out eight red tickets from his pocket and gave them to the stall owner, who took the money and took it in the sun, and then received the money in his pocket with satisfaction.

Guo Xingyun was waiting for Wen Xu on the side, and when he saw him come back with such a bad wool, he couldn't help but shake his head, and said regretfully: "Old Wen, if you want to gamble, buy a better wool!" This kind of wool material can't produce good quality jadeite at all. ”

Shen Ling'er looked at it, and nodded thoughtfully: "Brother Wen, Second Brother Guo is right, this kind of wool can hardly see valuable jadeite, if you choose wool, you should choose some wool that is larger and more beautiful, so that there is hope for good jadeite." ”

Wen Xu wasn't ready to explain to them, so he put the wool directly into his travel bag, and said to them with a smile: "Anyway, this piece of wool only cost eight hundred yuan, so let's buy a lesson when I gamble on stones for the first time!" By the way, you should know better than I am, so why don't you help me choose two or three? ”

Shen Ling'er shook her head hesitantly, but Guo Xingyun patted her chest and said, "Then look at me!" ”

Wen Xu smiled, turned his head to Shen Ling'er and said, "Ling'er, you can also choose one, open it, we are half of us, and if you can't come out, it will be mine." ”

Shen Ling'er was still a little hesitant, but when she heard Wen Xu say this, she bit her lip and agreed.

Wen Xu and the three of them squeezed into the crowd again, picking stones. In the end, after repeated selection, the three of them each chose a stone, which cost Wen Xu a total of 13,000. For people who gamble on stones, that's not much.

"Are the three of you going to open here? We just have a spare master here. Seeing that Guo Xingyun and Shen Ling'er had a good eye, the stall owner couldn't help but ask them.

Wen Xu glanced at Guo Xingyun and Shen Ling'er, and when he saw the two of them nodding their heads, he said to the stall owner: "Since this is the case, then we will open here." ”

"Good Ratcha!" The stall owner shouted excitedly.
