Chapter 59: Turning Stone into Jade Duan Yurui
"Xiaoxi, think again."
Mu Li didn't say much, but looked at Mu Xi seriously, and when she saw that she was mature and thoughtful, he guessed that she had this confidence.
But it happened to be his behavior that made Duan Yurui more confident, thinking that Mu Xi didn't understand these things at all, so Mu Li would stop him again and again.
So he said happily: "Of course, it is according to the rules of gambling stones." β
"Tell me about the rules."
Mu Xi gambled in his previous life, but he didn't have it in this life, and he didn't know if the rules here were the same as in his previous life.
Duan Yurui thought that Mu Xi was gambling for the first time, so she became more and more confident.
"We choose the same number of rough stones, whoever produces the jade material is good, and the jade material of the other party is all given to the other party."
"Yes."
Mu Xi nodded, and asked suspiciously, "Are there any other regulations?" How much are you going to bet? β
"For the sake of seeing that you are a novice, I won't bully you, just bet five yuan, but if you lose, you have to kneel and apologize to my wild brother."
Duan Yurui was still worried about Cao Ye's previous incident of being beaten by Jun Tong when he saw Mu Xi's appearance, so he specially added this request.
"Okay, then five."
Mu Xi frowned and smiled, Duan Yurui's physiognomy had changed, and the signs of wealth destruction were very obvious, it seemed that she could pick up some good things for nothing.
"However, if you lose, you have to make Cao Ye kneel down and apologize to me."
"This ......"
Duan Yurui and Cao Ye are just fiancΓ©s, she is not sure whether the other party believes her or not, so she can only look at Cao Ye next to her.
"Brother Ye, do you believe me?"
"Of course I believe you!" Although Cao Ye didn't particularly like Duan Yurui, he believed in Duan Yurui's ability.
After all, Duan Yurui has the reputation of "turning stones into jade" here, so he looked at Mu Xi and gritted his teeth and said:
"Lest you repent, we should make a contract."
The beating yesterday made him angry, because he wanted to see Mu Xi being slapped in the face, and it was best to kneel in front of him and beg to let her go!
Seeing this, Mu Li picked out and said worriedly, "Xiaoxi, why don't you forget it, it seems that the silver taels we brought are not enough." β
Mu Xi thought about it, and it was indeed possible that the silver taels were not enough, so she looked at Jun Tong, who was standing on the side, thoughtfully, and said:
"Mr. Jun, can you lend me some silver taels?"
"Okay."
Jun Tong raised his lips and smiled, and then whispered in Mu Xi's ear: "Otherwise, you can also choose a few rough stones for me, if you make a good jade, you can also make some jewelry for my mother and grandmother." β
"You believe me?"
Mu Xi raised his eyes and looked at the young man in front of him, he was not very old, but some things were very mature, similar to her mature soul.
But sometimes there is the ruffian of this young man, and in modern times, he must be a very popular boy.
"Believe in you."
Jun Tong has been slapped in the face several times, and he has fully realized the benefits of believing in Mu Xi outside.
"yes, okay."
Realizing that her thoughts were drifting away, Mu Xi immediately retracted those chaotic thoughts, and she looked at Duan Yurui and Cao Ye who were waiting for answers.
"Then sign a contract, no matter who wins or loses, the other party must not renege, if it is reversed, then the government will see you!"
"It's a deal! Red flower, go get the contract. β
Seeing that Mu Xi had to borrow silver to buy a rough stone, Duan Yurui readily instructed the maid to go to the management office to prepare the contract and seal clay.
Cao Ye looked at Mu Xi presumptuously, when they lost, he must recover yesterday's debt!
"Brother, don't worry, I'm measured."
Mu Xi comforted Mu Li, who was a little anxious, she had the eyes of the sky, and it was easy to win Duan Yurui.
But this time she wants to rely on herself more, she can feel it.
Although Mu Li was worried, he couldn't do anything, he fully supported his sister, "Xiaoxi, my brother believes in you!" β
It doesn't make sense that Brother Jun believes Xiaoxi, but he doesn't believe it when he is a brother.
"Girl, the contract is here."
Honghua quickly brought the contract, and there were not many people who came here to gamble on stones, because the management office had already set the contract, and before they signed it, they also stamped the official seal of the management office.
If someone does not fulfill the gambling contract, the management office will assist the government to help solve the problem.
Duan Yurui neatly signed his name and printed his handprint, and then handed the two contracts to Mu Xi.
"It's your turn!"
Mu Xi also signed happily, printed his handprint, and then returned one of them to Duan Yurui.
"Let's get started!"
"If you admit defeat now, won't you lose so ugly?"
The goal was achieved, and Duan Yurui returned to his arrogant and domineering appearance, "After all, with your poor and sour appearance, it is estimated that you can't afford to buy some rough stones, and it won't be interesting for me to win." β
"If I win, don't cry."
Mu Xi unceremoniously slammed back, "After all..., I won't show mercy!" β
"Heh...... do I need your mercy?"
Duan Yurui's expression was disdainful, "This girl grew up in the original stone pile when she was a child, this thing is just fun for this girl, you just wait to lose the money!"
Don't forget, kneel and apologize to my wild brother when you lose! β
She really loves Cao Ye.
Cao Ye stared at Mu Xi proudly, "It's too late for you to beg for mercy now, I'll let Yurui cancel your contract." β
"Brother, Jun Gongzi, let's go and have a look."
Mu Xi directly turned his head and ignored Cao Ye's words, and walked into the shop next door with them.
Listening to her unfamiliar call to herself, Jun Tong frowned slightly, and finally couldn't help but speak.
"You can call me by my name, or my brother can do it, you don't have to call me so unfamiliar."
He is a good friend of Brother Mu, and it is not impossible to call him brother.
"Jun Zhi."
Mu Xi is as good as a stream, and the relationship between men and women in ancient times was more harsh, so she still doesn't want to challenge the limits of others.
Seeing that they completely ignored themselves, Cao Ye was angry, and Duan Yurui gently comforted him.
"Brother Ye, don't be angry, when I pick the original stone, I will definitely be angry with them, and then let that little cheap hoof kneel in front of you and admit defeat before relieving his anger."
"You're right, Yurui, you're so good, my mother is right, only a talented woman like you is worthy of me."
A smile appeared on Cao Ye's face, and the embarrassed Duan Yurui blushed and heartbeat, and the two went to choose the original stone together.
The eldest lady is different from Mu Xi, she directly picks the most expensive shop, and the probability of opening jade in it is much greater.
And Mu Xi is a shopkeeper and a shop, she gently put her hand on the original stone, feeling the aura on it.
Seeing that she chose such a casual method, the shopkeeper in the shop blossomed, "Guest officer, there are still good rough stones here, do you want to have some?" β
Obviously, Mu Xi was wronged.
"I'll pick it myself."
Mu Xi made a mark of his picking, and then walked into other shops, very fast, not at all like a serious selection.
It was Duan Yurui, who was holding a piece of rough stone and studying it carefully, and even took a magnifying glass to look at it.
