Chapter 33 Water Agarwood
"Mr. Zhong, it's you."
After Chen Jiajun saw the old man, he immediately restrained himself a lot.
This old man, who is over seventy years old, has an extraordinary identity. He owns at least five jewelry stores in Jiangdu and is worth one billion.
The purpose of Chen Jiajun's visit today is not only to show his strength in front of Lin Yi, but also to make friends with some local snakes in Jiangdu.
When he opens a company in Jiangdu, he will inevitably have to deal with these people. Although relying on his status as a grandfather, he can easily do many things, he relies on his own ability to avoid being criticized by others. After all, the Chen family does not
He's not the only boy.
"Yeah, I just saw you guys chatting happily, so I didn't have the nerve to come over and disturb you."
The old man's voice is very calm. After decades of experience, he has long been able to express his emotions and anger without expressing emotion.
"How could it be? You are the oldest person here today. I was just thinking that we juniors would collectively come to you for advice later."
There are a few old people here today, but they are still incomparable to Mr. Zhong’s qualifications.
"You're welcome. Xiao Chen, if you have anything to do in Jiang from now on, just go to me, this old man. By the way, show me the bracelet in your hand."
"Mr. Zhong, what are you..."
Chen Jiajun was a little confused. What was this old man going to do?
"Nothing, I just thought it was interesting, so I just took a look."
"Okay, take a look."
Chen Jiajun handed over the bracelet.
Mr. Zhong himself was actually not very sure, and seemed very casual when he took it.
But as soon as he got it, his expression changed instantly.
Mr. Zhong's expression became serious, and his face even twitched slightly. Not only that, he carefully held the bracelet in both hands and gently rubbed it with his fingers, as if he was looking at the skin of a girl.
, so carefully.
Mr. Zhong's sudden change attracted everyone's attention. Even Chen Jiajun's face changed slightly without knowing it.
Mr. Zhong's reaction can only explain one problem. The bracelet that everyone judged to be a stone seems not simple.
However, no one knows the exact value yet.
"Mr. Lin, I would like to ask, do you have any plans to sell this bracelet of yours?"
Suddenly, Mr. Zhong reacted and came directly to Lin Yi and said.
In fact, this is very rude. After all, no one here is short of money. Selling things in person would be such a loss of face.
But Mr. Zhong was obviously a little uneasy at this time, and he was trembling a little when he spoke.
Lin Yi was still dazed just now, but she suddenly came to her senses after being asked this question by Mr. Zhong.
At this time, she finally realized a problem. The thing Li Tian gave her was worth a lot of money. It was so expensive that even Mr. Zhong, who was worth a billion dollars, would buy it at the expense of his dignity.
You said this thing is only worth a few hundred thousand? Are you kidding me, isn’t Mr. Zhong’s face worth this money?
"Mr. Zhong, this... was actually given to me by my husband. I really have no right to make the decision."
Lin Yi couldn't just say not to sell it, so he pushed the matter to Li Tian in one sentence.
"Ah? Mr. Zhong, right? I gave this thing to my wife. It's the first one. Of course it's not for sale."
Li Tian immediately understood what Lin Yi meant, but just after he finished speaking, Lin Yi rolled his eyes at him.
Huh? What's going on? Is that right? She wants to sell it?
Just as Li Tian was about to change his words, Lin Yi said again: "Mr. Zhong, I'm really sorry. This gift means a lot to me, so..."
It's so big, you didn't even take a second look when I gave it to you, okay?
When Mr. Zhong heard what Lin Yi said, he looked extremely disappointed in his eyes, but he quickly adjusted.
"Mr. Lin, this is a good thing. I originally wanted to buy it as a treasure for the store, but I didn't expect that Mr. Lin had no idea of taking action. It seems that I can only pass this treasure by."
What! The treasure of the store?
Everyone was a little dumbfounded when they heard this. Who is Mr. Zhong? His store has items worth tens of millions, and he actually wants to buy this bracelet as a treasure for the store. Doesn't that mean...
Chen Jiajun's face had become very ugly. He didn't expect that an ordinary stone bracelet would receive such a high evaluation.
He didn't believe it. Could it be that Lin Yi deliberately colluded with Mr. Zhong to act in the drama?
"Mr. Zhong, forgive our ignorance, isn't this just an ordinary stone? How could it be so valuable?"
Chen Jiajun asked, if Mr. Zhong can't give a reason to convince everyone, then this is definitely acting.
"Haha, it's normal for you not to recognize it, Xiao Chen. Even I almost didn't recognize it myself. Since you want to know, let me talk about this thing. Agarwood, have you heard of it?"
"I've heard of it, and I still have a few pieces at home. My grandfather said that a piece of top-grade agarwood is equivalent to fifty grams of gold of the same quality."
Chen Jiajun immediately answered.
"Yes, the best agarwood is indeed priced at that price."
"Could this be agarwood? No, doesn't agarwood exude fragrance? Especially after it is lit, the fragrance will be very strong, and the hardness is not that great."
"This can be said to be agarwood, or it can be said that it is not. This piece is called water agarwood, which is a fossilized state formed after agarwood has been soaked in water for thousands of years. It looks similar to stone on the surface, but
The value is immeasurable, even the best agarwood is not worth mentioning in front of water agarwood."
"Water agarwood?"
Chen Jiajun thought he was not short-sighted, but this was the first time he had heard of this name.
"Mr. Zhong, how come this junior has never heard of this water agarwood? And it is no different from ordinary stones. How do you know it is water agarwood?"
Although Chen Jiajun spoke respectfully, what he meant in his tone was that you must have read it wrong, right? You can make us believe it with just one sentence of yours?
Mr. Zhong is also a good man, so he doesn't understand the meaning behind his words.
"Why, Xiao Chen means that I saw it wrong?"
Mr. Zhong responded coldly.
For a junior to question himself like this, he felt very embarrassed.
"This... is not the case. I don't dare, this junior."
"Okay, since you want to prove it, let me tell you how to identify agarwood. First, look at the texture. The obvious tree rings are also the most obvious sign of agarwood. But this
This method is not very practical. After all, some stones do form such tree rings, or other wood fossils also exist. Water agarwood has another characteristic, please take a look."
