It was Nian Gen who had been dealing with the relationship for the past few days. Rarely, Chen Taizhong felt relaxed and wanted to collect some materials to redo the Sumeru Precepts.
Last time, after refining his Sumeru Ring with a few screwdrivers, he made a silver ring to put on his hand, which was consistent with his status as a high school student, but this time it couldn't be that simple.
Now the quality of this screwdriver is really inferior. Chen Taizhong was just thinking about what material to use. Brother Biao came to his door with half a million yuan in his bag. He knew that the village chief was back, and he didn't want to wait for this man to find the screwdriver.
Come to the door.
Now, he had money to buy some good things. Chen Taizhong was very happy, but he immediately realized something: "By the way, I seem to have made a request to you?"
Brother Biao's face suddenly wrinkled in pain, "This, that photo... the new year is over, the ladies have all gone home, I haven't succeeded yet, Brother Chen, let Xiaobiao take my time, can it be done?"
Chen Taizhong glanced sideways at Brother Biao for a long time without saying a word, but his sharp eyes made Brother Biao feel hairy all over.
After a long while, he spoke in a deep voice, "Okay, I will give you two more months. By then, if you can't find the lady anymore, then you will send your troops out. Do you understand?"
"Understood," Brother Biao said nothing, turned and walked away. What kind of state cadre is this? He does things worse than me.
Chen Taizhong didn't want to pay attention to him. He had an extra five hundred thousand yuan on hand. It seemed that he could buy some good jade to make a ring. This material was suitable for his current status and was not as tacky as a gold ring or a platinum ring.
With this in mind, he found a strong black plastic bag and carried the 550,000 yuan out. Near Xiguan in Fenghuang City, there was a large jade trading market with many jade shops and raw jade stones for sale.
.
According to legend, jade can ward off evil spirits. Although it is almost the end of the year, there are still many people wandering around here, just to take some small jade ornaments home and give them to their children during the Spring Festival.
Chen Taizhong is good at identifying jade. In fact, there is no immortal who is not good at this. The good jade in their eyes may not be the best in the eyes of ordinary people, but there is no doubt that it is definitely not bad.
Just like the hype about Clivia, stamp sheetlets, and Tibetan Mastiffs and Pu'er tea in later years, there is also speculation in jade, and those jade worth millions of dollars that rely on speculation will naturally not be able to enter Chen Taizhong's discernment.
His luck was not very good today. He visited seven or eight stores in a row before he saw a jade sculpture of Maitreya in one. The lean boss seemed to have noticed his affection and said, "88,000."
, without any bargaining.
Chen Taizhong is not good at counteroffering, but he is very happy to try this now. However, after half an hour of foaming at the mouth, he still had to leave sadly, "This jade is just like this, why does this guy think I am
Do you have to buy it? I won’t buy it yet, you can regret it.”
He didn't know if the boss regretted it. However, in the next half hour, he got nothing, and he actually regretted it. Well, should we look back?
It seems that learning how to turn around is also a skill. Chen Taizhong encouraged himself and was about to turn around.
Huh? Here? What's going on here?
Not far ahead, at the entrance of a jade shop, there were more than a dozen large and small stones, circled with ropes, and guarded by two men.
Here is a place for gambling on jade. Gambling on jade, also known as "gambling on stones", is an ancient way of trading jade materials. People can sell raw jade stones, which were called "Pu" in ancient times, so they are also called "gambling on stones".
It is difficult for ordinary people to see the amount of jade contained in it. When betting on raw stones, buyers are not allowed to cut the raw jade stone for inspection before purchasing. As for whether you can buy good jade or not, it all depends on luck. Of course, a little
The vision is also indispensable.
"How do you sell these stones?" Chen Taizhong asked. After a few glances, he understood the contents of these stones. "How much does one cost?"
A man who was sitting idle stretched out two fingers and said, "Two thousand for one piece, whichever piece you like."
"Two thousand?" Chen Taizhong pondered for a moment. He knew in his heart that there was something valuable in the two stones. However, now he has become a habit of setting prices. "It's so expensive. Can it be cheaper?"
"It's not cheap, these are all raw jade stones from Myanmar," the man shook his head, "Are you a jade player? Burmese raw stones! Do you understand?"
Chen Taizhong scanned it carefully with his heavenly eye. Yes, there was indeed some jadeite in those two stones, which was more suitable for refining the Sumeru Ring than the nephrite Maitreya he saw just now.
However, there is no jade core in these stones, they are all miscellaneous small bits and pieces. Although the two pieces bought back are enough, the quality will definitely not be much better.
"Burmese jade, the two thousand is a bit short," Chen Taizhong nodded, then shook his head, "But look at the jade veins and color on the stone... forget it, are there any good ones left?"
The idle man looked him up and down, glanced at the black plastic bag in his hand, and nodded understandingly, "Well, I really want it. There are good products in the house, and these outside are just for ordinary people."
There are seven or eight stones in the house, which are larger than those outside. However, the jade veins are much denser and the color is much better. In other words, the chance of finding good jade is much greater than the stones outside.
.
A tall and lanky guy in the room, who looked like the boss, was explaining to the woman with a grimace, "Sister, if you bet on jade, you are willing to win or suffer. If you bet wrong on jade, you can't blame me."
?”
"Did I blame you? I can afford to pay this little money." ** is very tall, almost 1.7 meters tall. She is as gorgeous as a peach blossom and has a perfect figure, especially those slender legs.
, almost as long as Chen Taizhong’s legs.
This woman is well-dressed, the mature type, and she looks very elegant. "I just want you to lower the price to 20,000 yuan, okay?"
"There's no need to discuss it," the boss shook his head desperately. He knew that this woman was rich, "I don't have to ask for money to buy goods? Even if you round up these eight yuan, it's 38,240,000 yuan, and you can't miss a penny."
"
"Xiao Pan, you stinky boy, you have a bad temper recently." The woman was a little unhappy, but even if she cursed like this, it could not affect her graceful and noble temperament. "Just for gambling, I will give it to you."
You’ve paid more than 200,000, right? What, now you’ve learned not to give in a penny?”
No matter how you look at "Xiao Pan", he is also the master of Ben Wu Zhang. He was called that by a woman in her mid-twenties and fourteen years old. She dared to get angry and dare not say anything. She had no choice but to turn to Chen Taizhong and asked, "What do you want?
"
"I want jade," Chen Taizhong said, feeling a little unhappy after being exposed to the sun for a long time. "Maybe you still sell tofu here?"
