"Hey, I'm competing with my buddies. I have so much money that I have no place to throw it away. I want it. Three thousand is three thousand..."
Liu Chuan was angered by Xu Wei's words. At this moment, he didn't care whether Lei Lei would punish him by kneeling on the support or pulling his ears. Without saying a word, he counted three thousand yuan from his pocket and threw it to Yang Hao. He was looking at Zhuang Hao.
Rui laughed in his heart. The saying that fools are blessed by fools refers to Liu Chuan.
When Lei Lei saw that Liu Chuan was acting stupid, she didn't want to refute him in public, so she kept silent at the moment. She was just thinking about how to torment Liu Chuan, and outsiders would not know.
"Boss Yang, what's the price of these two pieces? Don't kill me, brother. I just want to have the pleasure of cutting stones. I don't want it if it's expensive." Zhuang Rui pointed to the two pieces of wool he picked out and said to
Yang Hao said.
"Boss Zhuang, these two pieces of wool are all gambling stones. They are all pulled out of the old pits in Myanmar. Although the performance on the outside is not very good, no one can tell inside. Let's put it this way, two pieces added up, three
Ten thousand yuan, what do you think?"
Yang Hao knew that whether the wool he brought this time was half or full wool, it was not very good. He came to participate in this fair because his family asked him to open up the world by himself. To be honest,
, there is only one good piece of wool in it, the half-bet piece of wool that Xu Wei has already bought.
After listening to Yang Hao's quotation, Mr. Gu also took a closer look at the wool material Zhuang Rui selected and shook his head noncommittally.
"What can you buy with 30,000 yuan now? Boss Zhuang sold a manuscript for 3.8 million yuan. This small amount of money is not enough for Boss Zhuang." Xu Wei said something strange again.
, he is now done with Qin Xuanbing and is no longer afraid of what Qin Xuanbing thinks of him.
"Eight thousand, if Boss Yang agrees, I will cut it open in a moment. If you don't agree, I will put it back..."
Zhuang Rui looked at Yang Hao and said with a firm look on his face. With the old man's shaking of his head, he was not afraid that Yang Hao would not sell.
"Eight thousand is too little. My shipping costs are more than enough..."
"Okay, Brother Yang, what you said is not kind. The cost of renting a car from Guangdong is only RMB 8,000 for a round trip. Do you think that one stone counts as one shipping fee?"
Liu Chuan interrupted Yang Hao before he could finish. He ran around all day long and knew these market conditions very clearly.
"Okay, just eight thousand, let's sell it cheaply on the first day today."
Yang Hao nodded and agreed. The main purpose of his visit this time has been achieved. After selling the three and a half million yuan of gambling materials, he will have an explanation when he returns home. As for the other things, they are matched and the price
More or less, he can make up his mind.
"Boss Yang, please click and see if the number is correct."
Zhuang Rui took out a stack of money from his body, counted out two thousand, and handed the rest to Yang Hao. When he returned to Zhonghai this time, he wanted to pay back the rent money that his boss had advanced for him, as well as some other expenses.
I had 30,000 yuan in cash with me, so I just needed it now.
Yang Hao put the money into the banknote detector. After counting it, he saw that the amount was correct. He collected the money and said to Zhuang Rui and others: "Yes, it is exactly eight thousand yuan. How many people do you think it is?"
Boss, are these wool materials going to be cut now, or are you taking them back and cutting them yourself? I also brought tools for understanding stones here, which is quite convenient."
"I'm confused about this. I wonder if the two pieces bought by Boss Zhuang and Boss Liu can be solved now?"
Xu Wei replied that although he was sure that the piece of wool he bought could produce jadeite, he didn't know much about stone cutting and was afraid that he would damage the jadeite inside. You know, the knowledge of stone cutting is
It's very big, and the price of jadeite after it's cut out is often very different.
"Cut it, why don't you cut it? We just want to have fun. Look at your stingy look, it's not fun."
Xu Wei was so angry at Liu Chuan's words that he rolled his eyes. Can this be compared? A piece worth 3,000 yuan and a piece worth 3 million yuan. If Xu Wei bought a piece worth 3,000 yuan, he would dare to cut it.
"Wood, you should cut it first, and I'll take a look first."
After Yang Hao turned on the stone cutting machine, Liu Chuan backed down. What he said before was too full. If there was nothing in the stone, Liu Chuan felt that he could not afford to embarrass that person.
Seeing someone here wanting to break the stone, the jade merchants who came to buy raw materials gathered around. The excitement was interesting to watch. Besides, if the cut price increased and the jade inside was of good quality, they would also buy it.
As you know, since Myanmar and other places have restricted the export of raw jadeite, raw jadeite raw materials are very tight now.
"Uncle, how about you do the cutting?"
Zhuang Rui looked at Gu Gu and said politely. In fact, he didn't take it seriously at all. He had already seen clearly what was inside the stone.
"No, just cut it in the middle."
Gu Gu waved his hand and said, are you kidding? Such broken rocks are worthy of him.
Zhuang Rui didn't say much, and first put the fist-sized piece of wool under the stone cutter. This was a domestic stone cutter, which was very easy to operate. Zhuang Rui did not hesitate and directly cut the saw teeth into the stone.
Following an unpleasant "tearing...clicking..." sound, the fist-sized piece of wool had been cut open from the middle.
Everyone gathered around and sighed at the same time. No need to ask, there was nothing inside.
However, Gu Gu looked at Zhuang Rui's actions and nodded, secretly praising Ruzi for being teachable. Cutting stones is like gambling on stones. When it's time to take action, you must be decisive and not worry about gains and losses. Zhuang Rui's actions just now are in line with this.
a little.
"How about it? Boss Zhuang still wants to continue cutting?"
Yang Hao separated from the crowded crowd and asked Zhuang Rui inside, sometimes the cutting of stones is quite superstitious. If the first piece does not turn green, the chance of the subsequent pieces turning green will be very small. Although these are all rumors, but everyone agrees.
The more popular it is, the more people will believe it.
"cut……"
Zhuang Rui behaved a bit like a gambler who lost his bet. Xu Wei, who was watching on the sidelines, was so happy that he almost sang a comeback song.
"Xiaozhuang, please wipe off the stone first."
Zhuang Rui's performance deceived the old man. This kind of gambler's mentality is not suitable for the stone gambling business. If you use this mentality to gamble on stones, you will lose everything sooner or later. The old man couldn't help but remind Zhuang Rui.
Steady your emotions.
"OK."
Zhuang Rui agreed, fixed the football-sized piece of wool that Yang Hao carried over to the machine, and started polishing one side of the wool with the "sizzling" sound of the grinding wheel rotating.
The jadeite in this piece of wool is all in the center, and there are white mist crystals on the surface of the stone. Even the python pattern does not appear. The old man is standing next to the machine now, carefully watching the polished jadeite.
of stone surface.
"Stop for a moment..."
Following Zhuang Rui's movements, broken stone chips flew, and dust was everywhere for a while. Gu Gu suddenly shouted "stop", Zhuang Rui quickly let go of the grinder, and only heard the idling sound of the grinding wheel.
Gu Gu took the plate of water brought by Yang Hao, cleaned the polished stone surface, then squatted down and looked at it carefully for a while, shook his head, and said to Zhuang Rui: "Cut it, the possibility of it turning green is not very good."
It's big, but if there is jade, it should be close to the center of the stone, so you can cut it a little off."
After Zhuang Rui heard the old man's words, he secretly admired him in his heart. Sure enough, ginger was still hot as he was old. He could see the jade in the wool with the power of his eyes. The old man could conclude just by observing the appearance.
If it comes out green, it must be at the center of the stone.
"Cut, cut it quickly, don't leave any ink marks." Those who said this were just tourists passing by to watch the fun.
"Little brother, cut it quickly. I'll buy it when it comes out green." The person who said this should be the jade merchant who purchased the raw materials.
Since stone gambling is not common in the mainland, after hearing the news, other exhibition halls gathered around to watch the excitement. The jadeite raw materials here are all placed on the ground to ensure that these materials are not easily stolen.
, the exhibition also sent a large number of security guards to maintain order. For a while, the originally deserted D exhibition hall became noisy.
"Uncle, please let me cut from here, okay?"
Zhuang Rui took chalk and drew a line on the piece of wool. The line was slightly deviated from the center of the stone. This was exactly what Gu just explained.
"Well, come on, there is no one in this business who doesn't pay tuition, and a salary of ten thousand or eight thousand is nothing."
The old man really didn't think much of this piece of wool, so he gave Zhuang Rui some words to pave the way, fearing that he would feel disappointed after cutting it.
Zhuang Rui nodded when he heard this and started the machine. He had already used a drill to drill rough stones, and he had no psychological concerns about cutting stones. He held the machine firmly with both hands and pressed hard against the white line he drew.
Cut it off.
Wearing the specially equipped pair of plain glasses, Zhuang Rui was not afraid of stone chips hitting his eyes, but his face still hurt when the flying stone chips hit him. When the saw teeth of the stone cutter split the whole piece of wool into two halves
Afterwards, Zhuang Rui took off his glasses and looked towards Mao Material.
"It's gone up, the bet has gone up!!!"
I don’t know who among the people present shouted. Everyone who had been watching Zhuang Rui cutting the stone with bated breath became excited. Most of these people had never seen the stone cutting with their own eyes. At this time, those standing at the back squeezed forward with all their strength.
I want to go and see the real situation of the emergence of jadeite from the stone.
Now the security guards surrounding the stone cutter became busy, forming a circle and blocking those people outside. Inside, the old man was washing the green half of the stone with water, his eyes full of surprise.
"The water head is quite good, it can reach the level of egg white. Although the green color is relatively light, the color is very good. It's good, very good. It's perfect for a bracelet. It's a mid-to-high-grade jadeite."
The old man commented while looking at his mouth. He was not only surprised that this piece of wool turned out to be jadeite, but he was even more surprised that Zhuang Rui's line was drawn so accurately that it cut right through the edge of the green.
