I don’t know if they were stimulated by Ouyang Jun’s heavy bet of 100 million. Each of the bosses seemed to be on steroids, and their handiwork was huge. After the final statistics, excluding Ouyang Jun’s 100 million, there were also
More than 130 million.
Not counting Ouyang Jun's 100 million RMB bet, the largest bet amount was 20 million, and the smallest was as much as 2 million. Putting together the thirty or forty people present, it was also a huge amount. Such a big amount
The amount of bets made Mr. Wang and the other two bookmakers look a bit ugly.
You know, the rough stones that most people bet on are the ones that perform very well, and they are all betting at a loss of 5 for 1, and they are basically concentrated on the No. 8 rough stone. Mr. Wang’s approximate statistics
After a while, nearly 100 million RMB was bet on just that piece of rough stone.
If this is really bought by everyone, then the three of them will lose everything. Ouyang Jun's 100 million will be passed on, and he will lose another 400 million. Just imagine how good the faces of the three bankers will be?
After seeing Mr. Wang and others counting the data, someone in the crowd shouted: "Mr. Wang, this betting is over. Can you announce Mr. Ouyang's betting slip?"
This single bet of 100 million, even if placed in the world's major gambling cities, is a huge bet. Everyone present felt very lucky to be able to participate in such a gambling game. Although the money was not theirs, it was something they could use in the future.
Bragging rights.
There was nothing to hide at this time. When Mr. Wang heard someone ask a question, he said: "Mr. Ouyang bet on the No. 7 rough stone. A single bet pays 1 to 5..."
"What? No. 7 rough stone, invest 100 million?"
"Is that correct? That stone can come out on top?"
"This...is this not a joke? There's no telling whether there's jade in that stone. How dare you invest 100 million in it?"
As soon as Mr. Wang finished speaking, the hall of the club suddenly became noisy as if a pot had exploded. Everyone was puzzled as to why Mr. Ouyang did not invest in these jadeite stones that performed well, but chose an inconspicuous one.
Stone?
"You are so blind that you cast that stone. It seems that having a strong background does not mean that a person is smart..."
If Qi Zi's attitude towards Ouyang Jun hadn't been noticed by everyone, he would have said this strange thing long ago, but everyone was still secretly speculating, and in their hearts they devalued the fourth brother Ouyang as worthless.
"Ahem, everyone, be quiet. We will mark out the bet amount for each rough stone soon, and then we will start to analyze the stone..."
Seeing that the scene was a bit chaotic, Mr. Wang coughed a few times and changed the topic. He was afraid that these bosses didn't know the heights of the world and would say something unpleasant that would reach Ouyang Jun's ears. You know, the bosses here
They all rushed to curry favor with Ouyang Jun, who was not someone they could afford to offend.
"Um...are Director Yu and Director Qin from the Jade Association here? Mr. Wang, please give me another call..."
Mr. Tang is getting older, and he is inevitably a little unable to analyze the stone, so Mr. Wang invited two experts from the Jade Association to be responsible for today's stone analysis and evaluation work. In other words, after the stone is solved, who wins and who loses?
Two experts and Mr. Tang made the assessment together.
"Coming, coming, you two, let us wait..."
Mr. Wang nodded and just took out his phone. He looked up and saw two people walking in from the door. He quickly greeted them with a smile. These two were typical academic experts and were not in the jade business, so they were more arrogant than others.
Mr. Tang is much older.
"Mr. Wang, I'm really sorry, I'm a little late..."
The tall and thin man walking in front smiled at Mr. Wang, and immediately turned his attention to Mr. Tang beside him. He stepped forward, stretched out his hands, held Mr. Tang's hand, and said, "Mr. Tang, are you here?"
After tidying up, why do you still need us to show off your ugliness?"
Director Yu who spoke was in his early 40s. He was a geologist. He had done extensive research on Myanmar’s topography and the formation of jadeite. He was also an expert on jadeite appreciation in China and was often invited by some wealthy private individuals and various TV program groups.
, carry out some identification activities.
"Haha, Yu Xiao, you can't talk so much. You and Xiao Qin are still unique in the appreciation of jade. I will still trouble you later. The old man doesn't have the energy to unravel the stone..."
Mr. Tang smiled and glanced in the direction where Zhuang Rui was sitting, but found that Zhuang Rui had no intention of standing up. He shook his head, and Mr. Tang didn't say much.
"Mr. Tang, you are a senior, but please don't say that. If you spread the word, you will be laughed at..."
When Director Yu heard Mr. Tang's evaluation of him, he already smiled like a chrysanthemum. In the domestic jade industry, there are only a handful of people who can deserve Mr. Tang's praise. Others
Not to mention, as long as Mr. Tang's words spread, the red envelopes Director Yu will receive next time he goes out to help people appreciate jadeite will become much richer.
Director Qin, who had been silent all this time, smiled when he heard Mr. Tang's words. In front of Mr. Tang, whether it was reputation in the industry or real talent and knowledge, they knew that they were still far from being able to get an authoritative evaluation from the Jade Industry.
, which will be of great benefit to their future development.
"Mr. Wang, let's start unraveling the stone, right? It's just the ten pieces of material placed here, right?"
On the contrary, the two directors are not so enthusiastic about Mr. Wang and others. The two brothers still have a bit of literati character. Although they are paid to help people interpret stones and identify them, it is like ancient literati helping people paint.
Composing poems is like making a lot of money.
"Yes, yes, let's start now..."
Mr. Wang nodded. The stone-breaking machine and other equipment were already prepared. It was in the backyard. For today's "stone gambling event", Mr. Wang spent nearly a million to book this club.
For one day, even if they fired a salute here, no one would care.
"Okay, let's move these materials over..."
Director Yu nodded and walked towards the backyard under the leadership of Mr. Wang. However, just when he reached the sofa where Zhuang Rui was sitting, his footsteps suddenly stopped.
"Hmm? Director Yu, do you also know Mr. Ouyang?"
Mr. Wang stopped when he saw Director Yu, thinking that he and Ouyang Jun were acquaintances. These people all hung out in the capital, and Bao Buqi knew each other.
"Ah? I don't know Mr. Ouyang..."
Director Yu was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then asked Zhuang Rui hesitantly: "Excuse me, are you Zhuang Rui... Teacher Zhuang?"
In the Jade Association, there are a total of forty or fifty directors, but there are only seven or eight permanent directors. In other words, Director Yu and Zhuang Rui are both directors, but there is no comparison between the two, not to mention Zhuang Rui's role in Jade and Jade.
His reputation in the industry is far beyond what the two people in front of him can compare with.
It's just that Zhuang Rui's appearance in the Jade Association was too few, so although Director Yu looked familiar to Zhuang Rui, he didn't dare to recognize him rashly. After asking this question, he looked at Zhuang Rui with doubtful eyes.
Mr. Tang.
"Haha, I am Zhuang Rui. I don't dare to be called teacher. Director Yu and Director Qin, we have met before..."
Zhuang Rui stood up and smiled and shook hands with the two of them. The Jade Association is Zhuang Rui's only title in a semi-official organization besides his title of researcher at Beijing University. These two can also be regarded as his peers and colleagues.
.
"Teacher Zhuang, what are you talking about? As the saying goes, he who learns first is the teacher. Your knowledge is something we admire very much..."
Hearing Zhuang Rui admit his identity, the attitude of the two directors Yu Qin became more and more respectful. They are both from Beijing. They knew that Zhuang Rui not only made great achievements in the jade shop, but was also famous in the antique world, and his background was even more...
Unfathomable.
If we want to say that the two of them respect Mr. Tang, their attitude towards Zhuang Rui can be described as awe. In front of Zhuang Rui, how can the two of them act like experts? It's like they are asking for advice from a teacher.
Academic students are average.
After chatting with Zhuang Rui for a few words, Director Yu looked at Mr. Wang dissatisfied and said: "Mr. Wang, you are too unkind. First you invited Mr. Tang, and then you invited Mr. Zhuang. With these two teachers here
, the two of us can only play tricks..."
It’s no wonder that Director Yu is angry. In front of Zhuang Rui and Mr. Tang, these two are simply inferior experts. Director Yu thinks about it, with the existence of the “North and South Jade King”, what kind of jade can’t be identified? Let them again
Come to identify it, this is a bit of a trick.
"Ahem, Director Yu, Teacher Zhuang and Mr. Tang are all special guests this time. Since I don't know if the two teachers have time to come, I didn't inform you two. I'm sorry, I'm sorry...
Xiao Li, be careful not to drop the original stone. Well, move them all over. Director Yu, Teacher Zhuang, let’s go there now..."
Mr. Wang dealt with such a scene very well. After coughing, he casually changed the topic. However, he suddenly felt a little anxious and panicked, but he couldn't think of the reason.
"Teacher Zhuang, Mr. Tang, you two please come first..."
In front of Zhuang Rui and Mr. Tang, Yu and Qin did not dare to make excuses. They made a gesture to ask Zhuang Rui and Mr. Tang to take a step forward, and then followed closely behind them.
"Oops? Could it be that this young man named Zhuang is really a master of stone gambling as rumored?"
Looking at Zhuang Rui's back, Mr. Wang's mind suddenly lit up. He finally understood the reason why he was panicking just now. If Zhuang Rui really had the ability as rumored, then the 100 million bet placed by the fourth brother Ouyang would also be worth it.
It will most likely be honored.
That's an odds of 5 to 1. Thinking of this, Mr. Wang couldn't help but break out in cold sweat. If this money was lost, it would really be a pain for Mr. Wang.
"Old Wang, this thing is a bit evil..."
Not only did Mr. Wang have this idea, the other two dealers also thought about it, and at the same time they slowed down and looked at each other.
