Chapter Ninety-seventh, Ninety-seventh Eighth Chapter Gambling [Two in One Chapter]
Chapters 977 and 978 Gambling [two chapters in one]
"Li Yang!"
He Shanshan walked quickly to Li Yang's side, her mouth still curled up, looking anxious and angry.
It is now the morning of the next day. After arriving in Pingzhou yesterday, Li Yang was pulled over by several seniors. He Shanshan, who wanted to be liberated and go out to have fun, could only be trapped in the villa and held it in for almost a day.
After a while, she finally couldn't bear it anymore.
"call!"
Li Yang slowly exhaled a long breath. He had just finished practicing his boxing skills this morning. With Chen Wuji's guidance, Li Yang felt much more relaxed when boxing today.
At this time, he felt that he could handle three or four people.
Of course, this is just a pure feeling. His current strength is not enough to deal with so many people. If there are three or four people, he is probably the one who will run away.
"Why did you run out again if you weren't with Jiajia?"
Li Yang raised his head lightly, He Shanshan was slightly startled, and immediately exhaled upwards, blowing some of Liu Hai's hair, which gave him a different style.
However, her face became even more angry, and she shouted loudly: "You guy, did you call me here just to accompany your wife?"
Li Yang raised his palm, shook it gently, and said: "Let me declare first that you are the one who wants to follow me, I did not ask you to come. You must make this clear!"
After being together for such a long time, Li Yang has figured out He Shanshan's temperament. He can't be too serious with her, otherwise he will definitely suffer.
He Shanshan immediately changed her expression and said pitifully: "Okay, I came here myself. Let's go out and have some fun today. Don't stay here all the time. It's boring!"
"We'll talk about it later!"
Li Yang glanced at her lightly, but his tone was still very calm. He Shanshan immediately raised her mouth and glared at him fiercely, then ran to the side and sat down, ignoring Li Yang.
If Li Yang didn't go out, Wang Jiajia would definitely not go out. It was okay for her to go out by herself, but she couldn't bear the result.
Before she came this time, the old man had ordered her to follow Li Yang or Wang Jiajia no matter what. If she dared to violate them, she would be sent back to be imprisoned for half a year.
The old man is usually very kind, but he always keeps his word. He Shanshan doesn't think that she can hide it from him by running away. The old man has a sharp eye, and it won't take long for him to know what happens here.
"Buzz, buzz!"
There was a sudden vibration next to where He Shanshan was sitting. This was Li Yang's mobile phone, the latest model, and it was a gift given to him by Wang Jiajia just after the Chinese New Year.
He Shanshan picked up the phone directly. When Li Yang was boxing, he never had a phone on him.
"Sima Lin, who is Sima Lin?"
He Shanshan grunted dissatisfiedly, and Li Yang hurriedly came over and snatched the phone from his hand.
The call was from Sima Lin, and Li Yang immediately pressed the answer button.
"Brother Li, have you arrived in Pingzhou?"
As soon as the call was connected, Sima Lin's voice came over. This time when they came to Pingzhou, both Sima Lin and Zhang Wei asked about Li Yang. Li Yang wanted to come alone, but they didn't wait for Li Yang.
They all have to drive here, more than a thousand kilometers away, and driving is quite tiring.
"I arrived yesterday, where are you?"
"We just arrived, where are you? How about we go find you?"
Zheng Kaida's voice came from the other side of the phone. It was Zheng Kaida who snatched the phone away. Li Yang seemed to hear Zhang Wei's fighting next to him.
After thinking for a moment, Li Yang said softly: "Don't come looking for me anymore. I'll look for you wherever you are!"
"Okay, we are still in the same hotel as last year. Do you still remember? Just come and find us here!"
This time the voice was Sima Lin's. Several people fought for the phone. It seemed that Sima Lin was the winner in the end. Li Yang shook his head and smiled, said a few words and then hung up the phone.
"Li Yang, do you want to go out?"
Next to him, He Shanshan had been listening with her ears pricked up. As soon as Li Yang hung up the phone, she asked urgently.
"That's right, I'm going out. You can follow me if you want, but you must follow the arrangements of Jiajia and me. Otherwise, I will keep you here and won't let you go out!"
Li Yang smiled and nodded. Before going out, the old man told her that he must keep an eye on her. Before He Jie arrived, Li Yang had to do all these things, otherwise he might find something wrong. Li Yang couldn't bear this responsibility.
.
"Okay, I will listen to your arrangements and use chicken feathers as arrows!"
He Shanshan turned up her little nose vigorously and said dissatisfiedly that she was very satisfied to be able to go out. It was very uncomfortable to stay here. At this moment, she did not argue with Li Yang at all.
After saying hello to Chen Wuji, Li Yang and the others drove out.
The car was still the same commercial vehicle. Chen Lei didn't follow, and Liu Gang came to drive. The safety of these people when they went out was quite reassuring.
At least Chen Wuji knew that Liu Gang, Zhao Kui and Haidong were all special forces. Zhao Yong was hiding in secret and Chen Wuji didn't notice it, but he vaguely felt it. With such a protective force, there would definitely be no problems in Pingzhou.
The hotel Li Yang and the others stayed in last year was one of the best hotels in Pingzhou. Every year during the grand sale, the hotel was always overcrowded.
Zhang Wei has a good relationship with the hotel owner. They have known each other for a long time, and they have booked a room in advance. They stay here every year. Ordinary people have no chance of staying here at this time.
The business car drove directly to the parking lot. As soon as he parked the car, Li Yang saw Sima Lin and others standing at the door of the hotel.
There were quite a few people, seven or eight of them. Sima Lin, Zheng Kaida, Zhang Wei, Wang Haomin, and Mr. Gu were all there. Besides them, there were three slightly younger people.
Li Yang still has some impression of these three people. They are all newly recruited members of the Mingyang Jade Association. Those who can follow them to participate in the Pingzhou Public Sale are all people with certain financial resources.
Li Yang knew very well about this that Zhang Wei would never let anyone come with him if they came to the public market and did not buy more than 100,000 yuan of wool.
"Li, brother Li!"
As soon as Li Yang got out of the car, the sharp-eyed Zheng Kaida spotted him first. He raised his hands excitedly and shouted. Fortunately, he didn't call out Li Yang's name, otherwise he would definitely attract other people.
The owner of this hotel is very good at business. Before the public sale started this year, he spread the news that Jade Saint Li Yang stayed here last year and made a promotional poster. Many people crowded into this hotel for this reason.
"Brother Zheng!"
Li Yang also waved his hand, and Zheng Kaida and Sima Lin immediately ran over. Several people were extremely excited to see Li Yang, especially the three newcomers who had come to participate in the Pingzhou Grand Fair with Zhang Wei for the first time.
"Li, ***, hello!"
A man who was slightly older than Li Yang, probably in his thirties, stood up and greeted Li Yang. He seemed a little shy, and Li Yang had some impression of him. He was a man who joined the Jade Association very early.
This is very early, definitely later than Li Yang.
Li Yang still remembers that one time when he went home, he went to Cuiyuxuan. Someone rubbed a stone there, but the performance inside was not good. Li Yang's persuasion failed, and he was finally relieved.
The man who solved the stone was called Lao Gao, and he kept bragging that he knew him that day. The man who greeted him was a friend of Lao Gao, and he kept asking for information about him.
"Hello!"
Li Yang smiled and nodded. In any case, they are acquaintances and fellow villagers. Now that they are both in another place, they feel a bit familiar.
"Li Yang, let me introduce to you, this is Xiaoma, Ma Kun, he works at Mingyang Police Bureau!"
Zhang Wei came over and first pointed at the person who greeted Li Yang just now and introduced him. Ma Kun worked in the police station, but his father was a famous rich man in Mingyang. He was also a rich second generation. He never
Short of money.
"This is Si Hui, who opened a slate factory in Mingyang!"
Zhang Wei pointed to another man in his thirties, and Li Yang nodded slightly. He had also seen Si Hui. It must have been the last time he went back, when someone from Yunnan happened to provoke him. Li Yang only had an impression.
, but can’t remember their names.
"This is Jin Ming, the owner of the Triumph Hotel!"
The last one was a man about thirty-five years old, not too old. Li Yang knew that the Triumph Hotel was a medium-sized hotel in Mingyang with assets of tens of millions, but he didn't expect the owner to be so young.
"***, please take good care of me in the future!"
Jin Ming immediately stepped forward and held Li Yang's hand, and said with a smile. There was an excitement in his eyes that could not be concealed. He was the latest to join the Jade Association. Although he had met Li Yang last time, he didn't do much.
I had contact with Li Yang.
This time, he took the initiative to ask for the Pingzhou Grand Opening, and was finally brought by Zhang Wei, and finally met Li Yang as he wished.
Li Yang chuckled and nodded. As soon as Zhang Wei finished the introduction, Sima Lin came over.
"Brother Li, do you have time? Let's go to the warehouse and have a look together?"
It has always been their tradition to go to the warehouse to select woolen materials and try their luck by trying their luck at the auction. Li Yang is here today, and they are even more excited. With Li Yang following him, it is impossible to lose money.
Who is Li Yang? He defeated the Jade King and is recognized as the number one person in the stone gambling world. Such a good opportunity is rare.
"That's right, Brother Li, let's go to the warehouse and have a look!"
Zheng Kaida also said something, with a little desire in his eyes. Li Yang hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded.
"Warehouse, what warehouse?"
He Shanshan suddenly jumped out from behind and asked loudly, and Wang Jiajia hurriedly pulled her.
Zhang Wei glanced at her and explained softly: "It's a gambling stone warehouse. Many woolen materials participating in the public sale will be stored in the warehouse before. Go and pick them first. Maybe you can choose a better one before the public sale starts.
Wool!”
Zhang Wei didn't know who she was, but no one who followed Li Yang could be underestimated. Li Yang didn't explain, so he could only explain.
He Shanshan's eyes suddenly lit up and she asked again: "Is that so? Is it the kind of gambling stone where you can make a lot of money with jade after cutting it open?"
She didn't understand stone gambling, but Li Yang was a master of stone gambling and had heard of it. As soon as they mentioned it, she remembered what she had heard before and couldn't help but ask.
"Yes, that's it!"
Zhang Wei nodded lightly, with a little helplessness on his face. After hearing what she said, he knew that He Shanshan must be a person who doesn't understand stone gambling. If someone who doesn't understand follows, there will definitely be a lot of questions. No wonder
Li Yang stopped answering just now.
He Shanshan's eyes suddenly became extremely bright, and she nodded vigorously.
"Li Yang, why don't we go to this warehouse and have a look!"
There were still little stars in her eyes when she spoke. She had heard about Li Yang's gambling on stones too many times at home. In her impression, she could make money by betting on stones, and what she needed most now was
money.
If you have money, you can buy a good car and fulfill her wishes.
Speaking of money, He Shanshan felt a lot of helplessness in her heart. Everyone in her family was rich, her father was rich, her aunt was rich, He Jie was rich, and even Li Yang was rich.
With so many people, anyone can give her a favorite sports car.
It's a pity that the old man just doesn't agree and doesn't say anything. None of these people dare to buy her a car. She relies on her own scholarship to buy a good car that she likes. She doesn't know that it will be in the year of the ox and the month of the horse.
"Jiajia, let's go together!"
Seeing that Li Yang ignored her, He Shanshan pulled Wang Jiajia again, with pleading in her eyes. Wang Jiajia also looked back at Li Yang.
"Okay, let's go to the warehouse and take a look!" Li Yang nodded helplessly, and He Shanshan immediately jumped up excitedly.
It doesn't matter to Li Yang to go to the gambling stone warehouse. If there is wool that he likes, he might as well buy some as it can be stored. If he wants to learn jade carving in the future, he will definitely need a lot of raw materials.
Keep these ingredients for yourself to practice.
Seeing that Li Yang agreed, Zheng Kaida and Sima Lin also seemed very excited. There were eight of them in total, and they drove three cars. Li Yang also drove a car, and the four cars immediately drove towards Jade Street.
Jade Street is still the same as before. It is very noisy here as it is approaching the Pingzhou Grand Prix. There are many people at the street entrance.
After getting out of the car, Li Yang first brought his big sunglasses on. This is Pingzhou. Maybe someone has seen him or knows him. If he is recognized by someone, it will definitely cause a sensation.
With Li Yang's current reputation in the stone gambling world, this kind of thing is very likely to happen.
More than a dozen people walked inside together, and everyone seemed very excited. When the bosses of some nearby shops saw them, they all smiled and shook their heads. Before the public sale, there were many people like them.
Many people regard the Pingzhou Grand Opening period as a paradise for stone gambling. When those stone gambling enthusiasts first arrive here, they will be full of excitement and anticipation, but it will be different when they leave.
Some people will continue to be excited and can leave laughing, but most people will only be left frustrated.
After all, gambling on stones has the word "gamble" in it. There are many people who make money by gambling on stones, but seven times out of ten they will lose, so there are still only a few people who can really make money.
The Betting Stone Warehouse was not far away, and it was just a short walk across the street. As soon as they walked past, everyone heard a noise coming from the Jieshi District.
Li Yang was still deeply impressed by that stone-cutting area. Last year, the continuous gold-threaded jadeite was found there, setting a record.
The noise was very loud and slowly subsided. Everyone stood there, looking at me and you.
The noise of so many people in Jieshi District can only mean one thing: there are people there who are betting on a rise, or a good rise, otherwise they would not have attracted so many people.
"Old Zheng, Brother Li, do you want to go take a look first?"
Sima Lin turned around and asked in a low voice. You can go to choose wool at any time, but if you miss this kind of big rise, you will lose it. Everyone who likes to gamble on stones likes to watch the process of unraveling this kind of big rise.
.
Zheng Kaida said nothing and looked directly at Li Yang.
"Okay, let's go take a look first!"
Li Yang nodded lightly, not to mention them. Even Li Yang himself had a curiosity in his heart. There are two different concepts between solving the problem yourself and watching others solve it.
"Okay, let's go take a look first and pick out the wool later!"
Sima Lin shouted, they all agreed, and the other people had no objections. It was useless for He Shanshan to raise any objections. If she didn't follow them, she wouldn't even be able to enter the Stone Betting Warehouse.
The stone solution area is still the same as before. There are a lot of people there now, more people than the last time Li Yang and others were here to solve the stone.
So many people were mainly concentrated around the two stone dissolving machines. At least three to four hundred people gathered there. Many people stood tall and cocked their necks to look inside.
Seeing this scene, Sima Lin and the others couldn't bear it anymore and walked over quickly.
"I've crossed it, I've crossed it!"
Before they could reach them, the crowd erupted into a cry of regret. Sima Lin was stunned for a moment and walked faster.
From the shouts of these people, you can tell that there is someone inside. However, why was there such a loud noise just now? This made everyone more curious and wanted to know what happened inside.
"Give way, inside, what's going on inside?"
Standing on the outside, unable to see inside, Sima Lin yelled anxiously, grabbing a man outside and asking loudly.
Zheng Kaida was smarter and more rational, so he immediately took Ma Kun and the others to a distant place to move chairs, so that he could stand higher to see what was going on inside.
The corners of Li Yang's mouth slightly raised, his special ability was activated, and everything inside was immediately revealed.
Next to him, the man captured by Sima Lin also began to tell them about the situation inside.
This person didn't squeeze in, but he has been here all the time. Everything inside has been spread by others. He is very clear about what happened just now, and his storytelling ability is very good, and he can tell it vividly.
Inside, there are two groups of people betting against each other.
A group of people came from Zhejiang, and they were all young. The youngest was only in his twenties, and he was the one who solved the stone.
The other group of people were a little older, but not much older. They were all in their early thirties. The two groups were young and energetic. They bumped into each other and were dissatisfied with each other, which led to this gambling.
The two groups agreed on a best-of-three game, with the loser losing one million and losing the emeralds to the other party.
They took out all the one million and found a notary to hold it there. The notary was a very famous boss here and he could convince the public.
They had already had a round of bets against each other just now, and the bets on both sides were all up. The young man in his twenties found a very good golden jadeite, which was also a high-quality golden clock, and its value was not low.
, at least more than two million, and directly won the first round.
Now in the second round, this young man actually wiped out the ice-type window again. The color was still very pure sun green. The noise just now was caused by this piece of ice-type jade.
The other group's gambling stone was broken, and they had just broken it. When Li Yang and others arrived, everyone was feeling sorry for them.
After figuring out what was going on, Sima Lin seemed even more anxious.
Bet, ever since Li Yang and Jade King openly bet in Myanmar, bets between two people have happened frequently in the stone gambling world.
The conditions for many people's bets are similar to the one between Li Yang and the Jade King. Whoever loses, the jade he solved will belong to the winner.
Some people will also add some bonuses. Like the two groups in front of me, they added a million dollars in lottery bonuses. They dared to gamble with one million dollars, which proves that these two groups are the masters who are not short of money.
Betting is more exciting.
Otherwise, it would not be able to attract so many people.
Zheng Kaida ran back and brought several benches with him. Sima Lin immediately ran over.
Li Yang shook his head slightly. He had completely seen everything inside just now.
After the special ability evolved, this distance was nothing. Li Yang could clearly see the situation of the two stone dissolving machines inside. One of the stone dissolving machines was wiping the window, and there was indeed ice on the window.
Sun green jadeite.
The person who was polishing the stone was a young man in his twenties or seventies, and his face was full of excitement at this time.
There were three people on the other side, and what they were cutting was a piece of semi-machined wool weighing about ten kilograms. The wool had a layer of white mist that had been wiped off. They were cutting the shell along the mist layer. Unfortunately, after cutting it, it was full of broken jade.
This knife indeed cut across.
There are three people in front of this stone-breaking machine, and all three of them have helpless and desolate expressions on their faces. If they lose this piece of wool again, they will lose this round of gambling in advance.
Zheng Kaida and Sima Lin both stood on the bench and finally saw what was going on inside.
The young man who was wiping the stone had stopped wiping the stone and directly set up the cutting machine. His performance in erasing the wool was very good. Now that the leather shell had been wiped out by him, it was completely ready for cutting.
"Li Yang, why are you in no hurry? How can we go in and take a look?"
He Shanshan suddenly pulled Li Yang hard. She had been wanting to get inside just now, but unfortunately so many people couldn't give her this chance. She couldn't see the excitement, so He Shanshan was anxious now.
Li Yang was stunned for a moment and then laughed again.
He can see the situation inside, so he will naturally not be anxious. The people who use these two stone-breaking machines to break stones are very interesting. If this bet is calculated according to the value of jade, then it is really hard to say who will lose.
win.
"why are you laughing?"
He Shanshan rolled her eyes fiercely. Li Yang was actually thinking about the situation inside, but unfortunately he thought he was laughing at her, which made He Shanshan even more depressed and angry.
Li Yang immediately turned around and asked softly: "Do you really want to go in and take a look?"
"Nonsense, what's the point of standing outside? Don't you want to go in and take a look?" He Shanshan pouted her lips in annoyance.
"Okay, I have a way to let you in, but you have to cooperate with me!"
The corners of Li Yang's mouth rose a little more, and Wang Jiajia turned around and looked at him in surprise.
"Do you really have a way? Tell me quickly, how can I cooperate with you?" He Shanshan was stunned for a moment, and then she shouted excitedly again.
Li Yang got to know her, and she also got to know a lot about Li Yang. At least she knew that Li Yang never spoke big words and could usually do what he said.
