This East China Sea Stone Gambling Festival is jointly organized by more than a dozen well-known jewelry companies across the country. Its scale is unprecedented in the country.
Tianji Jewelry City is a 28-story building, and the Stone Gambling Festival is held on the first to fourth floors of the building.
Arriving at the Tianji Building by car, Zhang Jun saw a lot of people at the entrance of the building, constantly going back and forth. It seemed that there were not a few people participating in the Stone Gambling Festival, which was also a sign of the organizer's successful publicity.
Entering the first floor of the building, Lin Xian asked Zhang Jun to walk alone because she had some business to attend to. She took the elevator to the upper floor alone.
Zhang Jun then entered Area D, ready to buy some rocks to play with.
The entire Stone Gambling Festival is divided into four trading areas, namely Area A, Area B, Area C, and Area D. Among them, the jadeite rough stones in Area A are the most valuable, with prices exceeding one million yuan; the stones in Area B are the lowest.
The price is 100,000 yuan; the price of stones in area C is generally more than 10,000 yuan.
As for area D, you can buy it for hundreds or thousands of yuan, which is the cheapest among the four areas. At the same time, this area is also the place with the largest flow of people.
Zhang Jun is now in Area D. He is close to the sales desk, walking slowly, secretly staring at these stones, hoping to find valuable jade.
In the casino, he won two million, which was enough for him to buy many rough stones of his choice.
The stones sold here are divided into three categories. The first type is for gambling. Even the seller cannot tell whether they contain jade or which kind of jade they have. This type is the most gambling and basically depends entirely on luck.
The second category is clear goods. The exposed goods are cut open, and the internal situation is clear at a glance. Basically, the value of the stone can be judged. Of course, there are risks in clear goods. It is possible that the jadeite exposed by the cut section is of good quality, but the actual quality is not good.
The upper interior simply cannot reach this level.
The third category is half-bright materials. This kind of material only opens a window on the stone so that you can partially see the internal situation. This kind of stone also has a greater risk, so it is called half-bright.
Half-bucket and half-bright materials and clear goods, generally of good quality, are very expensive. Even if the jadeite is cut out, the money earned is limited, so Zhang Jun is not very interested in them. His focus is on maximizing the gambling potential.
gambling goods.
Although he had looked through Lin Xian's jade samples before, Zhang Jun was still uneasy. He simply looked through the exposed materials here first to further understand the internal structure of the stone, so that his judgment could be more accurate.
The four areas are all equipped with stone cutting machines. After customers buy the stones, they can cut them open on the spot. The process of cutting the stones is very exciting, and many buyers stare at the stones they bought with their eyes wide open.
And when the stone was untied, some of them smiled, while others had sad faces. The former naturally made money by betting on the upside, while the latter lost money by betting on the downside.
Along the way, Zhang Jun found that most people were losing money, and only a few people were making money. Among them was an old man who cut out Laokengnuo jadeite worth hundreds of thousands at a cost of 3,000 yuan. He
Holding the cut stone, I was so happy that my teeth were exposed.
After Zhang Jun looked through a large number of stones, he had a clear idea and began to check the gambling goods, looking for stones worth selling.
This process is very boring. He has to look through thousands of stones one by one, and then select the one he wants. He walks slowly, and whenever he sees a stone he is satisfied with, he asks the nearby service staff to pick it up and place it in a specific place.
s position.
The service staff in the lobby were very sufficient. When the manager saw that Zhang Jun had already taken three rough stones, he knew that he was a big customer, so he sent a person to push the cart and follow behind to help him pick up the stones.
After Zhang Jun gained the power of clairvoyance, he set a principle for himself to keep a low profile, so he was not prepared to buy too much. Since the number to choose was not large, it was natural to choose some high-quality jadeite rough.
When he passed a stone the size of a small watermelon, he was shocked. The stone was not small, and the outer shell looked ordinary, but inside it hid a piece of jade the size of an apple.
According to his experience in seeing through the samples, this piece of jadeite belongs to ice-type purple jadeite and is of high quality. He cannot yet determine the value of this piece of jadeite, but it must be above one million.
His heart beat hard, and he thought to himself: "Stone gambling is really a profitable business. This stone is only worth 80 million, but it can change hands for hundreds or tens of millions! With this money, you can buy a stone in a prime location in Donghai City.
Got a house!”
After almost visiting the entire D area, Zhang Jun bought ten rough stones at a cost of more than 60,000 yuan. The largest of these rough stones were the size of a watermelon, while the smaller ones were only as big as a fist, but they all contained high-quality jadeite inside.
When Zhang Jun came to the counter and was about to check out, Lin Xian came back. Behind her, followed a man in a suit in his thirties, about 1.7 meters tall. His left hand was resting on Lin Xian's slender and soft breasts.
On the waist. Moreover, his eyes stayed on Lin Xian most of the time, and there was unconcealable greed and possessiveness in his eyes.
Zhang Jun was unhappy and wondered what the origin of this guy was. He seemed to be playing tricks on his senior sister. While thinking about it, he waved to Lin Xian and said loudly: "Senior sister, I'm here."
The young man in a suit also heard Zhang Jun's shout, and couldn't help but frown slightly. As he followed Lin Xian over, he asked: "Lin ###, this guy called you senior, is he your classmate?"
Lin Xian said: "Yes, his name is Zhang Jun, and he is an alumnus of mine at Tunghai University." After saying that, the two of them walked over.
Before Lin Xian could say anything, the young man's eyes had already fallen on Zhang Jun's shopping cart. When he saw the ten rough stones of average quality, he couldn't help showing a hint of ridicule and said: "These stones of yours don't look very good.
, it is estimated that it will be difficult to maintain capital.”
Perhaps because the man in front of him deliberately approached Lin Xian, Zhang Jun was extremely disgusted with him. At this time, he heard him criticize the stone he bought, and he couldn't help but said coldly: "Nonsense, the key to gambling on stones is the word 'gambling'.
Of course there are risks."
Zhang Jun's attitude made the young man dissatisfied. His face changed slightly and he said: "I am Xu Bo, the department manager of Donghai Qianfu Jewelry. I am one of the organizers of this stone gambling festival. I have been involved in the stone gambling industry for many years and look at stones.
I still have some good eyesight, ### don’t be unconvinced.”
Lin Xian didn't quite understand. Why did Zhang Jun, who had always been very humble and polite, speak so harshly at this time? But she didn't want to offend the young man in front of her, because the family wanted to buy jade and would most likely have to deal with this person.
She quickly smoothed things over and said with a smile: "Yes, Zhang Jun, Manager Xu's ancestors are experts in stone gambling. You need to learn more."
Zhang Jun raised his eyebrows: "Really?" He turned around and picked up a fist-sized stone from the shopping cart, and said to Xu Bo calmly, "Manager Xu, do you dare to take a gamble with me?"
