Chapter 22: Pulling the Tiger's Skin

As soon as they heard that the two masters, Deng and Meng, were also going to participate in the appraisal, the minds of many stone masters began to come alive.

The estimate given by Master Deng of the Duobao Mine is 850 million, and the estimate given by Master Meng of the Hongtoushan Mine is 930 million.

Does that mean that if the actual value of the stone is less than 850 million, then as long as the bid is 849 million, you can safely hold the two resident bids behind you?

If the actual value of this stone is higher than 930 million, then as long as you bid 931 million, you can also guarantee that you will not lose to these two masters?

Even if the actual value of the stone is between 850 million and 930 million, it is completely possible to find a price close to that of a certain master, so as to have an advantage in the competition.

Unless one of these two masters gave the slightest valuation, the more than twenty stone masters present, as long as they had a little tacit understanding, could basically guarantee that the two stone masters who were resident in the Duobao Sect would not win the final victory.

The truth is indeed the truth, but these stone tasters have unconsciously taken the appraisals of the two residents as a reference, and they have undoubtedly fallen behind.

To say that the level of these stone masters is definitely not bad, and those who can get the top ten in the exchange meeting will not be fundamentally different from the resident stone masters in terms of skills alone.

However, people can become resident, but they can't, so I have to say that there are still some deep-seated reasons here.

Cui Yun gave each stone taster a huge whiteboard and a pen, and told everyone to write their own estimates on the board.

The stone masters secretly exchanged with their eyes, and soon they had their own ideas, turned around one after another, found a place to carry people, and wrote their answers on the question board.

Qian Yang's face was relaxed, he picked up a pen and wrote a number on the board, and then quietly stood in an inconspicuous corner.

Cui Yun scratched his head vigorously and forcibly sobered himself up. Today's press conference was a complete failure, and the only way to save some face was to auction the rough for a good price.

The idea of losing money and making money has long passed, and now Cui Yun wants to auction this stone for a sky-high price, a sky-high price much higher than the actual value of the original stone. For this reason, he even did not hesitate to fabricate the appraisals of the two masters, Deng and Meng.

Qian Yang silently looked at Cui Yun's expression, and kept guessing the mentality of this Cui Hall Master in his heart. In fact, when he heard Cui Yun say that the two masters of Deng and Meng were valued at eight or nine hundred million, he had an urge to laugh.

For this red giant, he couldn't be more familiar. As a stone taster who had been unraveling stones in Mining Area No. 6 for several years, how could he not study this dazzling rough stone in detail?

With the opportunity to be close to the water, Qian Yang happened to be studying the red skin stone with Wu Qingshui at that time, but the spiritual power of the place where the red skin stone was located was blocked, and he couldn't use the array disk to analyze and record at all.

Therefore, Qian Yang had spent countless hours studying every detail of this red stone, and after returning to his residence, he had to manually compare it with Wu Qingshui to find similar number strings from the database.

Not to mention the results of the comparison, let's just say that from the perspective of Qian Yang, a stone taster, it is impossible to give an estimate of eight or nine billion yuan for this rough stone no matter what.

Of course, you can say one billion, two billion, or even 10 billion when you are propagating, but if you have to put this kind of irresponsible guessing on the heads of some or two experts, then you are very suspicious of fraud.

The smile on Cui Yun's face was slightly

Stiff, he said, "Okay, the prices of all the masters should have been written, so let's reveal the answer now!"

There was also a look of anticipation on the faces of the audience, and they also wanted to know what these professional stone tasters thought about this rough stone.

"Then let's start with Master Liu?" Cui Yun's gaze locked on a rickety old man.

Master Liu nodded with a smile and slowly turned the question board in his hand.

As soon as I looked at the price above, there was a burst of boos below.

Cui Yun also smiled: "Master Liu's price is not kind!"

Master Liu was a little surprised, looked down at the nine hundred and thirty-one million written on his board, and said, "My estimate coincides with Master Meng's secret agreement, and after thinking about it, I added an extra million." ”

"Okay! I wish Master Liu success. Cui Yun moved to the next person: "Master Zhang will show you your estimate?"

Master Zhang's face was a little red, and he opened his question board that read 929 million.

Cui Yun smiled: "Okay, now I can basically conclude that Master Meng has missed the first place in this competition." ”

There was a burst of laughter below.

"Next, Master Song!" Cui Yun looked at the next person.

Master Song opened the question board and saw that it was written 849 million.

Cui Yun gasped: "Why am I starting to worry a little about Master Deng? The next Master Guo should write 851 million, right?"

Master Guo hurriedly shook his head and flipped over his question board, which was impressively written 848 million!

"Uh...... Master Song go all the way!" Cui Yun made a joke at Master Song just now.

Master Song, on the other hand, looked at Master Guo with his eyes wide open and looked at him with an angry face, and Master Guo turned his head away from him.

The appraisals of the stone masters were unveiled one by one at Cui Yun's urging, and the price of 851 million also lived up to expectations, announcing that the bids of the two masters of the Duobao Sect were completely sandwiched.

Watching the masters show their prices, Cui Yun was still very satisfied. These prices are basically between 800 million and 1 billion, and occasionally there is not much difference between those exceeding this range, and it seems that the price hints of the two masters of Deng Meng are still very effective.

From this point of view, everyone's positioning of this super rough should be around this price, and the auction result must not be too far from this number.

Cui Yun's face showed joy, his steps became brisk, and when he walked in front of Qian Yang, he said as usual: "Now it's Master Qian's turn." ”

Qian Yang didn't rush to show the question board, but asked with surprise, "Does Hall Master Cui know me?"

Cui Yun frowned, he knew that this person was in league with Yang Gong Wu Qingshui, but Qian Yang had always had a low sense of existence, and he didn't take it to heart, as for the name Qian Yang, it was still provided to him by the Stone Master Association before.

Cui Yun didn't want to say more, but said lightly: "I have here a list of all the Master Pinshi who came to attend the press conference, so I have heard of Master Qian." ”

"Oh! That's right!" Qian Yang nodded, and asked again, "Then do you know what I did before?"

Cui Yun shook his head blankly, feeling a little panicked inexplicably.

Qian Yang sighed: "Hall Master Cui may not know that in order to study the rough stone in the past few years, I have gone deep into the mining area to collect first-hand information. For the sake of convenience, I hid my identity and worked as a stone-solving worker for three years. ”

Cui Yun didn't know what Qian Yang was going to say, but he guessed that it was definitely not a good thing, so he hurriedly interrupted: "Master Qian has something to say back and speak slowly, let's light up the question board first!"

Where could Qian Yang fulfill his wish so easily, holding the board firmly in his arms like a treasure, and then said: "Does Hall Master Cui know where I have been working as a stone solver in the past few years?"

Cui Yun didn't answer: "Master Qian, please light up the question board!"

Qian Yang smiled: "Don't panic, Master Cui, are you afraid that my lies will be exposed?"

Cui Yun's face turned a little pale: "I don't know what you're talking about, if you don't show the question board again, then you can only abstain." ”

Qian Yang was frightened by him, and said to himself: "I used to be a calcite worker in the No. 6 mine area of Hongtoushan Mine, and this rough stone was carried out of the mine with my fellow workers. Would you like to hear a few words about this rough stone?"

Cui Yun was stunned: "You dug out this rough stone?"

Qian Yang shook his head: "I didn't dig the stone, I just helped carry it, and the one who really dug up this stone was the Yang Palace Taoist who came with me." ”

As soon as they heard this, the eyes of the whole room turned to Yang Gong, and Yang Gong also stood up at the right time, and made a circle with a calm expression.

Cui Yun glared at Yang Gong fiercely, then turned back and stared at Qian Yang: "What do you want?"

Qian Yang made an innocent expression: "I don't want to do anything! It's just that since everyone wants to buy this rough stone, then I will tell you what I know about this rough stone, but you have never let me say it." ”

Cui Yun's face was hideous: "You ......"

"Let him continue!" it was Second Elder Chen who spoke.

"Let him speak!"

"Let him speak!"

"Why don't you let people talk if you don't have a ghost in your heart?"

There was a lot of heckling.

Don't look at when Cui Yun said that he wanted to introduce the original stone just now, everyone was too lazy to listen, but now there is a person who wants to talk about the original stone, and everyone is interested.

Cui Yun trembled all over, but couldn't say another half a word.

Qian Yang's face was calm, and he said with a smile: "This rough stone, known as the red giant star by the miners, is the highest quality rough stone excavated since the beginning of mining in Hongtoushan Mine. ”

"Red giant?" said three words in everyone's mouths, and their eyes involuntarily moved to the rough stone. Sure enough!

After waiting for a while, Qian Yang continued: "I have been in the No. 6 mining area for three years, and as a stone taster, I have spent countless days and nights by the side of the red superstar. ”

Everyone nodded, and the stone masters on the stage could clearly understand Qian Yang's feelings, if they stayed with such a rough stone, they would definitely study this rough stone without sleep.

Qian Yang continued: "Actually, I'm still relatively lazy, I haven't really studied stones for a long time, and my master was also with me at that time, and he often stayed with the red superstar. If I remember correctly, when the Duobao Sect attacked Hongtou Mountain and chased the miners all over the mountains, my master and his old man lay quietly on the red giant. ”

"Oh?" Many people made puzzled voices, because Qian Yang's words were a bit informative.

"Who is your master?" asked Chen Er.

As soon as Qian Yang heard this, he immediately lowered his hands and stood solemnly, showing a look of respectful worship: "My master's surname is Ding, and I don't dare to mention his name, but I heard that everyone calls him Ding Shen!"
