Chapter 146: Gambling Stones

As you move deeper into the jade market, the small stalls around you are becoming more and more sparse and replaced by some huge jade trading shops. In the front is the jade trade, and in the back there is a special machine to cut and process the rough stone.

The number of tourists is gradually becoming scarcer, and only the workers with bare arms are busy back and forth, constantly unloading stones, transporting them, and polishing them......

"Boss, is there a better rough stone?" Lin Jiaxuan suddenly walked into a luxurious jade shop, looked at some wool on the counter, and asked with interest.

"Absolutely!" The boss was a bald middle-aged man, and when he saw that Lin Jiaxuan's clothes were very extravagant, he obviously knew that he had caught a big family, so he immediately took out a "wool" with a diameter of about ten centimeters from under the counter and placed it in front of the counter.

He knocked on the edge of the wool, took out a professional spotlight to shine into it, handed it to Lin Jiaxuan and said: "This is the treasure of the town store in our store, the net weight is three kilograms, and there should be more than two kilograms after peeling. ”

The stone was cut through a standard "window" with a tool to reveal the contents inside, which was thick green and emerald, with a bit of jade.

Lin Jiaxuan glanced at it, cut it disdainfully, pushed the stone aside, and said, "Boss, this is just an ordinary material, don't take it out......"

Li Weidong probed slightly, and felt that there was no soul in this piece of jade, but it was just an ordinary product......

The boss didn't expect that Lin Jiaxuan, a beautiful woman who looked delicate, actually knew a lot about jade, so he immediately laughed, quietly put the stone back, solemnly opened a safe behind the counter, and said with words in his mouth: "I didn't think that the girl was an expert, since this is the case, then I have to take out my real treasure to open your eyes......"

"This is what I bought from Mr. Li Zedong, a well-known gambling stone master, when I was gambling abroad seven or eight years ago. At that time, the selling price was millions, but now it may have risen to nearly five million. ”

As he spoke, he took out a small piece of wool with a diameter of no more than five or six centimeters and the size of an adult's fist from the safe. The skin of the wool is old and wrinkled, and it looks inconspicuous.

"Full of head pigment, full of pine flowers?"

Seeing this unsightly rough stone, Lin Jiaxuan's eyes widened suddenly, and her eyes lit up.

"This rough stone is not big, but the things inside are indeed rare pine flowers!" The boss stretched out his thumb and praised: "The girl is really an insider, although this piece is not big, but it is peeled and polished to make a big golden toad or pixiu, suppressing the mansion, and improving feng shui!" ”

"When I was filming a film, there was a teacher in the crew who liked to ponder stone jadeite, and he mentioned to me that this kind of pine flower is very rare and extremely precious. I didn't expect to see the real face here today. Lin Jiaxuan looked at the stone cautiously, hit it with a special spotlight, and saw that a large piece of verdant and rich in the middle of the stone was different from the spiritually green just now, but in the verdant green, as if there was a vitality brewing in the stone, about to be reborn.

Li Weidong also felt the spirituality in the stone, and nodded, it is indeed a good material, with abundant spiritual energy, suitable for cultivation.

"Boss, how much does your stone cost?" Li Weidong asked tentatively.

"Hehe, since both of you are knowledgeable people, then I won't talk all over the place. Fixed price: 5 million, don't sell a penny less! The boss didn't talk nonsense, he directly raised five fingers and said loudly.

"Five million?" Li Weidong frowned...... If it was five hundred yuan, he would not hesitate to take it, but at the figure of five million, he could only shake his head with a wry smile and give up his thoughts on it.

Unexpectedly, Lin Jiaxuan on the side nodded nonchalantly: "Five million is not expensive, I bought it!" ”

What?

Li Weidong looked sideways, and saw Lin Jiaxuan take out a black card from her bag nonchalantly, and swiped the card to buy the small rough stone.

"Rich man!" Li Weidong gave a thumbs up.

After getting the rough stone, Lin Jiaxuan immediately couldn't wait to ask the boss to help peel off the skin and carry out simple grinding and polishing. Taking advantage of this gap, Li Weidong walked to a pile of stones placed in a corner of the store, scooped up a stone and asked, "Boss, how much is this pile of stones?" ”

"These are the leftovers that come with me every time the person who delivers the material, and there may be high-end goods in them, but you need to gamble. How? This gentleman is interested in gambling stones? ”

The boss was helping to remove the skin of the rough stone, and when he saw Li Weidong's interest, he paused and said.

"How to bet?"

Li Weidong pinched a stone in his hand, felt the spirituality inside and asked.

"This pile of small scraps, whether there is green in it or not, is 2,000 yuan a piece!" The boss said with a smile.

"Two thousand?" Li Weidong smiled: "This kind of leftovers, even if there are good goods in the cut, it is not worth too much money." Besides, most of you must be worthless ordinary stones, and 2,000 is too expensive! ”

"Is it expensive?" The boss shook his head: "You definitely don't know that the famous gambling stone master Mr. Li Zedong once took 2,000 yuan and cut out a piece of priceless treasure jade from a pile of scraps." Didn't he be appreciated by no one back then, and finally came out to shock the world? In my pile of materials, maybe there is He's Bi! ”

Li Weidong shook his head helplessly, took out the bank card on his body, chose three stones and said, "Then I'll bet on these three stones!" ”

"Good!" The boss took the card and swiped the money and handed the stone to Li Weidong.

Lin Jiaxuan watched quietly from the side, and waited until Li Weidong took the stone in his hand before he burst out laughing, and said gloatingly: "Do you know what stone you chose?" ”

"If I'm not mistaken, these three pieces are ordinary scraps. There must be black lines in the green places inside, there are too many cracks, too little water, and it is basically worthless! ”

She looks like an expert, as if any stone can see through it.

"This young lady has a good eye!" The boss raised his thumb: "Young man, you are still too young, Too young, too simple Tucson." The stones you chose, you can clearly see from the outside that there are black lines mixed in, the water color is not very good, obviously not good jade, how did you choose these pieces? ”

"Really?"

Li Weidong's expression was calm and unmoved: "That's only six thousand yuan, it's not a big deal." ”

Seeing that Li Weidong seemed to be indifferent, the boss didn't say anything more, buried himself in cutting the wool in his hand carefully, faded the outer package, and completely showed the contents inside.

With the final cut completed, green and spirited, a whole piece of pine flowers that are moist and gentle completely presents its perfect appearance. This is the first time Li Weidong has seen such a complete and flawless jade.

The aura inside is vertical and horizontal, lush, as if there are so many aura that they want to turn into water.

"Great! This condition is even better than I estimated! After cutting, the boss looked at his baby with a surprise in his eyes.

"It's not a loss to buy a treasure from the master, the appearance is plain, and the inside shocks the world!" The boss reluctantly handed the stone to Lin Jiaxuan, and the corners of his mouth were praised.

But he didn't lose money, he bought something for one million and sold it for five million, which was already a big profit...... At most, it's a little less.

"Well, I still have a vision." Lin Jiaxuan proudly showed off her treasure to Li Weidong: "I'm afraid you've never seen such a positive color jade in your life, right?" Looking at your eye for picking stones, you know that you don't know anything about this industry, and you have never seen real jade. ”

"I really don't have much research on jade." Li Weidong nodded, he would only look at the aura, not the quality of the jade.

"Young man, this time he only spent 6,000 yuan, and he should pay the tuition. When you get more knowledge, you may be able to become a master like Mr. Li Zedong. When the time comes, it will be easy to turn stones into gold. The boss patted Li Weidong on the shoulder and said in the tone of a passerby: "When I first gambled on stones, I lost hundreds of thousands. ”

"Hehe, then I'm lucky, and I only lost 6,000 yuan." Li Weidong didn't explain, put the three small stones into a bag he carried, carefully collected them, and only absorbed the aura inside when he needed them.

"What? I know it's a garbage stone, why do you put it in? Lin Jiaxuan patted the stone in the bag and said casually: "Throw it away?" Are you reluctant? ”

"After all, it was bought with money, and it was kept as a souvenir." Li Weidong smiled at the corner of his mouth.

"That's good, for the sake of the six thousand yuan you spent, I'll give you a small jade Buddha as a souvenir." The boss pointed to the stone in Li Weidong's bag: "The stone in this, you can just throw it away." Even if you go to the mountains and find two pieces, they are better than what you have in your bag! ”

"I'd better keep them." Li Weidong didn't want to explain too much to them.

Lin Jiaxuan looked at Li Weidong pressing the bag tightly and looked like she cherished herself, and smiled disdainfully at the corner of her mouth: "Do you still have illusions, thinking that there must be treasures in it, as long as you cut it, it must be worth a fortune?" Then I advise you not to think too much, most of the leftovers piled up in the corners of the store are tricks to deceive the layman. If you don't believe me, cut the stone right away! ”

"Cut?" Li Weidong shook his head: "No need."

Although he didn't know what was in the stone, Li Weidong knew that judging from the aura in the stone, at least it was not inferior to the so-called Man Songhua! In order to keep a low profile, it is better not to cut it.

"Hmph, you just want to be an ostrich. I thought I could fool myself if I didn't cut it, and there was a treasure in it, right? Lin Jiaxuan said loudly: "Do you dare to make a bet with me?" ”

"Bet on what?" Li Weidong asked curiously.
