Chapter 173 One blade in heaven, one blade in hell
Although Zhou Jianyun couldn't wait, he wasn't too excited. He took a deep breath and calmed down before using the grinding wheel to continue grinding down on the green color he had just polished.
With the sound of friction between the grinding wheel and the stone, two to three millimeters of jade flesh were soon ground out. Although it was only a little bit, Zhou Jianyun and Lu Tianming were overjoyed, and their expressions became more and more excited...
"Wait a moment."
Just when Zhou Jianyun was about to grind out the jade flesh on this side in one go, Old Feng standing next to him suddenly stopped him with a frown on his face.
Zhou Jianyun was grinding a stone when he was suddenly called out by Old Feng. He was startled and almost dropped the grinding wheel in his hand. He couldn't help but glared at Old Feng angrily.
"What's the matter, Lao Feng?"
Old Feng's sudden shout made Lu Tianming's heart skip a beat. You must know that Old Feng was a guest-level figure in his Lu family. He had rich experience in stone gambling and was well-known in the industry.
Originally, Lao Feng accompanied his grandfather to Huadu to gamble on stones, but because of the jade carving competition, his grandfather was too busy and had no time for the time being. He had to wait until after the jade carving competition. Zhou Jianyun had never bet on stones, so he wanted to take a gamble.
I simply borrowed Lao Feng.
"I'll take a look first and then talk."
Old Feng stretched out his hand and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. Without saying anything, he squatted on the ground, took out a magnifying glass and looked at Zhou Jianyun's jade flesh. After observing for a moment, he stood up and waved with a sigh of relief.
He waved his hand.
"There are stone marks, it's not a big problem, just go ahead and wipe it off."
"That's it. I thought something was going on. It scared me."
After hearing what Lao Feng said, Lu Tianming felt relieved. It was normal for the jadeite in the original stone to have stone patterns. Although the stone patterns looked like cracks, they were not cracks. The stone patterns were innate.
Caused by this, as the saying goes, nine jade patterns out of ten are like this. Generally speaking, it has little impact on the entire jadeite.
The people around watching the excitement couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief. They had dug to this extent. If there were cracks on the jade, it would undoubtedly make people vomit blood. Fortunately, it wasn't. Of course, some people said it was a pity and hugged them.
Naturally, Guo Hai and Yang Long are the ones who have such a mentality.
"What a fuss!"
When Zhou Jianyun heard Old Feng say it was okay, although he was in a good mood for a while, he still couldn't help complaining dissatisfiedly to Old Feng. How could Old Feng not know Zhou Jianyun's temper and not have the same experience as him.
After complaining to Lao Feng, Zhou Jianyun continued to wipe the stones. As the green area that appeared became longer and longer, the expression on his face became more and more excited, and his heart became more and more excited. But at this moment, he was struck by
The jade flesh that was wiped out suddenly appeared a gap in the middle. That is to say, the jade flesh in front of me was suddenly divided into two parts from the middle. The green on both sides continued to extend forward, and in the middle
But it is a crack, and the most important thing is that the crack is still expanding...
Seeing this scene, Lu Tianming and Master Zhou were shocked into a cold sweat almost at the same time, and their expressions became ugly at this moment.
The huge hall fell into a deathly silence at this moment. No one spoke. They all stared at Zhou Jianyun who was polishing the stone with their eyes wide open. Even Guo Hai and Yang Long were watching closely.
He closed his mouth tightly.
For a moment, the atmosphere in the whole place was a bit strange.
Zhou Jianyun naturally discovered this. His emotions were a little out of control at the moment, and he eagerly took the grinding wheel and continued grinding it without mercy.
After more than ten minutes, as stone chips fell to the ground one after another, the crack that appeared in the middle of the jadeite flesh became wider and wider. Under the eyes of everyone in disbelief, the crack looked like a bloody mouth.
It's the same, all the jade meat is eaten, and in the end there is a complete crack, and there is no green anymore.
Bang!
At this moment, Zhou Jianyun could be said to have fallen directly from heaven to hell. The huge psychological gap made him almost go crazy. However, although he was not crazy, he was not far behind. At a glance, his face became extremely pale.
, the grinding wheel in his hand also fell to the ground with a clang.
"Brother Yun, this..." Lu Tianming panicked and shouted in panic.
"Don't bother me!"
Zhou Jianyun's eyes turned red, he yelled at him, got out of the way, and yelled at Master Zhou in a hoarse voice: "Old Feng, keep wiping!"
"this……"
Old Feng's face was a little ugly. At this time, Zhou Jianyun asked him to continue wiping it off. He refused, and his face became even more ugly. Old Feng's hesitation made Zhou Jianyun lower his face on the spot, and stared at Old Feng.
.
After being stared at so viciously by Zhou Jianyun for a while, Lao Feng couldn't stand it anymore. He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, sighed softly, took a step forward, and stood where Zhou Jianyun had stood before.
Seeing Old Feng taking his place and continuing to wipe the stone, Zhou Jianyun withdrew his gaze, but he stared at the wool being rubbed by Old Feng. As for Lu Tianming, he was completely confused at this moment.
The area Zhou Jianyun wiped before was the right side that was cut green by Master Zhou. The right side was wiped green by Zhou Jianyun, so Lao Feng could only wipe the left side that was cut green.
Empty!
Yes, the left side that was cut green by Master Zhou is completely empty, with nothing inside.
Collapse!
Completely collapsed!
Everyone present took a breath when they saw this scene. No one expected that such a thing would happen.
This side was considered collapsed. Old Feng then went on to wipe the other side. This side was also cut green by Master Zhou, and green was also rubbed out on both sides. Although that side was collapsed, if this side could dig out some jade flesh,
If so, it's not a complete collapse, at least it makes people feel better.
Everyone present here has placed their hope on this side.
But the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.
Old Feng continued to wipe along the green color wiped out by Master Zhou. At first, a little green was indeed wiped out. This little green made Zhou Jianyun and Lu Tianming excited again, but before they could get happy, the green color in front of them suddenly
Gone again.
"Oh, everything collapsed!"
A huge sigh came out from the crowd gathered at the front. The people behind did not need to ask, but they knew that this side had also collapsed, so it was completely collapsed now. It was almost certain that the stains on the wool surface were
The green color is just a trace on the skin.
"How is it possible? It's impossible. It's obviously green, how could it become like this!"
With a hoarse roar, Zhou Jianyun seemed to have gone crazy. He pushed away Old Feng who was almost paralyzed on the ground, snatched the remaining wool and put it under the stone cutter. He looked at it and put the blade of the knife against it.
The rest of the stone was cut off with one stroke, regardless of whether the green color on it was cut or not.
Although he did not fix the wool on the stone cutter, the piece of wool was cut open with a knife. After being cut, he saw that both halves of the wool were gray and white, and the green part turned out to be just a patch on the surface.
It's just a wisp, and when it goes inside, there's no trace at all, as if it's just a layer of green on the surface.
Seeing this scene, everyone onlookers were dumbfounded. It was a knife to heaven and a knife to hell. Eighteen million dollars were wasted in this way. It was really crazy.
Old Feng collapsed to the ground almost immediately, while Lu Tianming's hands and feet were cold and he squatted on the ground. Although Zhou Jianyun did not squat on the ground, he was still struggling in his heart and wanted to vomit blood.
Looking at them, Chen Ran also had an unbearable thought in his heart, but he was relieved when he thought that this was entirely a consensual act. If it were for other business matters, it might be a bit unethical to do so, but in this case
In terms of antiques and stone gambling, as long as he doesn't cheat on his own, there will be no problem.
You can only blame yourself for your failure in gambling, because there is actually no difference between betting on stones and gambling. Just think about it. If you go to a casino to gamble and lose everything, how can you blame others? Others may not sympathize with you, and they will only know it.
Say it deserves it.
Of course, if you win the bet, it is another matter. Betting on stones is the same as gambling in a casino.
After thinking about it, Chen Ran no longer felt any guilt. Of course, if it were someone else, he might still feel a little guilty, but now that it was Zhou Jianyun, it would be different.
Think of it as settling the previous grudges and giving a sigh of relief for Brother Qiang's comrade's sister. Chen Ran thought, when bidding farewell to Gao Qiang, Gao Qiang got drunk and said that facing the enemy of his comrade's sister,
In the end he chose to compromise.
Gao Qiang was crying when he said this sentence. It can be seen that he himself did not feel comfortable at all. I am afraid that this will become a knot in his heart for the rest of his life. When Chen Ran saw Gao Qiang's appearance, he immediately
I thought that if he had the ability in the future, he would vent his anger on Gao Qiang's behalf.
Now he is feeling quite angry.
The result was decided, and there was no point in reading any more. Chen Ran patted Guo Hai and others who were stunned, greeted them, turned around and walked towards the door.
When Zhou Jianyun was not cut down, Guo Hai and Yang Long cursed him to cut him down, but when Zhou Jianyun really cut him down, there was no sound. Chen Ran slapped them, and they woke up, but they were still a little dazed.
, but when they saw Chen Ran leaving, they quickly followed him.
Along the way, no one spoke, and the atmosphere seemed a bit silent. However, after walking out of the Cultural Expo City, they all cast their eyes on Chen Ran one after another.
For a moment, the eyes looked a little strange!
[It’s great to see you all. Last night in Zhengzhou there were thunder and lightning, storms, rainstorms, power outages, and water outages. I almost thought it was the end of the world. Fortunately, it wasn’t...luckily! ^_
