Entering the backyard, Chen Ran was unexpectedly startled. Unexpectedly, he thought he had entered a bandit's den. In front of him was a courtyard with an area of tens of thousands of square meters. Surrounding the courtyard were low rough houses.
Each greenhouse has a brand number, and there are two black pots hanging on the left and right sides of each greenhouse. A raging fire is burning in the black pots, just like torches, and in the middle of the courtyard, there is a stone monument.
, there is an incense burner in front of the stone tablet, and the incense burner is also burning with fire, as if attending a temple fair, and from time to time someone throws incense into it.
Only then did Chen Ran understand why there were so many incense vendors outside. There were quite a few people who dared to burn incense and worship gods.
Chen Ran stretched out his head and looked at Guo Hai and the others. After a quick glance, he saw Zhu Feng talking to Wu Laosan not far away. Guo Hai and Zhang Shuchun also ran away to nowhere.
When Chen Ran looked at Zhu Feng, although Zhu Feng and Wu Laosan were talking, they were obviously paying attention to the door. When Chen Ran looked over, Wu Laosan smiled playfully at Chen Ran, and
Zhu Feng and Chen Ran pointed to the direction to his left.
Chen Ran looked back in the direction Zhu Feng was pointing, and then discovered that there was a huge electronic screen here. Some numbers were displayed on the electronic screen, and a few people stood scattered under the electronic screen with their hands stretched out.
Pointing at the big screen.
"Brother Chen, you can register now. Let me take you to register first." Knowing that it was Chen Ran's first time to play, Master Zhao ran over to guide Chen Ran. In fact, Master Zhao was also a little puzzled.
However, if the stone gambler has such a good eye, then how come he has never come into contact with the Jade Association's big gambling market before? You must know that there is more than one chamber of commerce in the country, the Jade Association. In addition to the Jade Association, there is also a treasure house in Zhejiang.
There is also a Tianbao Pavilion in Guangdong. Both of these are imitations of the Jade Club's betting market. Even if you have not participated in the Jade Club's betting market, you should have heard of it, but Chen Ran has never even heard of it.
As he said, this really puzzled him. If he couldn't figure it out, he could only attribute Chen Ran's good eye for stone betting to his talent.
"Well, okay, Master Zhao, please excuse me."
Chen Ran was not polite to Master Zhao, and followed Master Zhao into the crowd. Only then did he realize that this place was the place for registration and betting. The numbers displayed on the big screen were all brand names and wool grades, which were not displayed here.
Each participant’s real name has his own brand number. When Chen Ran came in just now, he was also given a brand number. The brand number is actually the number on the membership card. In addition to the fact that all participants have a brand number,
Each piece of wool involved also has a code name.
"Brother, come on, sit down."
Under the leadership of Master Zhao, Chen Ran first voted for the piece of black sand-skin wool containing golden threads. After signing in, he came to Zhu Feng's side. There were some benches here, but they were obviously
There were too many monks and too little rice. When he saw Chen Ran coming, Zhu Feng moved his body with great difficulty to make room for him, and asked Chen Ran to sit down.
"Xiao Chen, do you still dare to bet with me? My piece of ice wool is ready to participate in the auction with a deposit of 10 million." Chen Rang just sat down and hadn't taken a breath when a familiar voice came,
The one who said this was naturally Wu Laosan.
"Third brother, if you don't tell me, I still have to tell you. The piece of wool I brought to bet with you will also be part of the 10 million deposit bet."
Chen Ran looked at Wu Laosan's self-satisfied look but was not angry at all. He said in his heart that it would be unkind to not avenge a grudge. I wish I could participate in the 10 million deposit sale with you.
"Then let's make an agreement." Wu Laosan showed the piece of ice wool to Master Jiu when he went to visit him. Master Jiu gave it a very high evaluation and said it could produce high-quality Cui, so Wu Laosan
He was very confident now, but he wanted to see if Chen Ran could still be so calm after losing.
Chen Ran smiled noncommittally and didn't bother to talk to him.
"Hey, I said you two are still finished. How come you get so angry after just two sentences when you meet?" When Chen Ran and Wu Laosan were talking just now, Zhu Feng didn't interrupt, but just stood aside calmly.
Watching with interest, because he found that although the two people met each other sarcastically, they would not lose their temper. This was what puzzled him the most. Although he was not very familiar with Wu Laosan, he had heard of it.
I have talked about Wu Laosan, and I know that this person is also a smiling character and is not very easy to get along with.
"Brother Feng, how did you invest those three pieces of wool?" Chen Ran asked casually after hearing Zhu Feng's words.
"I only invested the full bet, and I haven't invested the remaining two dollars yet..."
The piece that Zhu Feng was talking about was the piece containing hibiscus seeds that Chen Ran selected for him. Before Zhu Feng could finish speaking, he was suddenly interrupted by a commotion.
"Master Jiu is here!"
"Hello Master Jiu..."
Looking up, I saw a group of people walking in from the door. As this group of people walked in, the crowd in the yard suddenly became commotion. No matter what they were doing, sitting, standing, or talking, everyone
They all came up to greet him, and even Wu Laosan stood up and led his bodyguards to greet him.
Needless to say, the one who has such power here is the so-called Long Jiuye.
"Brother, look at how powerful this person is." When Zhu Feng saw Chen Ran staring over there, he leaned his head over and said to Chen Ran with an envious face. He was very envious, but his tone was obviously not full of envy.
A little bit of envy, I'm afraid it's mostly a joke.
Chen Ran was a little amused when he heard this, and thought to himself that Zhu Feng is so powerful in the sky. While thinking like this, if he didn't have any ideas in his heart, it would be a lie.
Everyone in the yard came to greet him. Zhu Feng and Chen Ran couldn't help but just sit here, so they wandered over. Chen Ran had admired this Master Long Jiu for a long time, so he was curious about it.
Soon, when he walked to the crowd, he looked at Master Long Jiu.
I saw Master Long Jiu, who was surrounded by people. He was not very tall and a little thin, but he had black hair and bright eyes. If you didn't look closely at the wrinkles on his face, at first glance, he looked like he was only in his forties or fifty.
He looked 60 years old, but as far as Chen Ran knew, this Long Jiuye was at least sixty years old.
From the name Long Jiuye, and the fact that although he had never met but was manipulated by his powerful methods, Long Jiuye gave Chen Ran the impression of a scheming and dignified old man, but in fact Long Jiuye not only dressed very
He was as simple as a farmer working in the fields, and he made people feel very close to him. When the jade merchant present greeted him, he responded cordially, and his words and tone sounded like those in the countryside.
Neighbors greeted each other as if they were meeting each other, and the words they spoke were commonplace, just like when he greeted a few jade merchants, he asked them how their business was this year, just like asking how the harvest was in the fields.
However, it is such a person. No matter whether they are worth billions or millions, when they see this person, their faces are full of respect. Even Wu Laosan, a wealthy young man in the capital, has to stand up.
Welcome.
In the past few days in Tengchong, although Chen Ran had never met Long Jiuye, he had heard a lot about his deeds. Almost anything he encountered here could be related to Long Jiuye. It is said that
Long Jiuye is the grandson of Wang Longyun of Yunnan.
Chen Ran naturally knew about such a famous figure as Long Yun. Long Yun was born in a feudal landlord family in a small village in Yunnan. At first, he supported General Chiang Kai-shek. After unifying Yunnan, he ruled Yunnan for eighteen years.
During his administration, he proposed the goal of building a "New Yunnan". At the cusp of the times, he always used tenacity and perseverance to govern and work hard, resulting in Yunnan's construction in all aspects being full of vitality and prosperity, presenting a great situation.
Therefore, Long Yun was also called the "King of Yunnan" and had great influence in Yunnan. After the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, the contradiction between Long Yun and Lao Chiang Kai-shek became more and more serious on the anti-Japanese issue. Long Yun was a famous anti-Japanese general in our country.
It was he who won the famous Taierzhuang victory. His national righteousness brought him together with the Kuomintang and the Communist Party. Later, after the Anti-Japanese War ended, he was put under house arrest by Chiang Kai-shek. He did not escape to Hong Kong until three years later. After escaping to Hong Kong, he joined the Kuomintang and the Communist Party.
, but was later classified as a rightist, and the label of a rightist was removed only the day after his death.
After the decline of the Long family, at that time, Long Jiuye was not from a good family background, but from a bad family background. He was regarded as an educated youth who went to the countryside. At first, he farmed in the countryside, and later became a jade miner, and finally gradually became a new generation of
Jade King, it is said that Long Jiuye not only has soldiers in Myanmar, but also has seven or eight jade veins. The value of one jade mine is immeasurable. Needless to say seven or eight, the wealth will never be greater than that in China.
It is not an exaggeration to say that those rich and poor are the big guys.
After Long Jiuye arrived, he and everyone had some family affairs for a while, and then presided over the ceremony to start the big gambling board in Jade Hall. The ceremony included everyone lighting incense and bowing, which was quite formal.
After the ceremony, Long Jiuye said a few words until the time reached eight o'clock on time. He shouted a gunfire, and with a burst of crackling firecrackers, the gambling started, and the crowd also cheered.
Then everyone ran to the big screen to find the area code they had been assigned. Chen Ran, Zhu Feng, Guo Hai, Zhang Shuchun and the others were no exception.
Chen Ran's number plate appeared first, it was No. 11. After seeing it, he said hello to Zhu Feng and the others, and then he led Bawang and Yang Shijie to squeeze out of the crowd and look for No. 11. This area code
They were all lined up, so it was easy to find them. After seeing No. 11, he walked over.
Chen Ran walked into District 11 and saw an acquaintance. This acquaintance was none other than Fatty Chang.
"Brother Chen, you are here. I looked for you just now but couldn't find you. I thought you hadn't arrived yet." Fatty Chang was startled when he saw Chen Ran walking in, and then he greeted him enthusiastically.
"Brother Chang, have you also been assigned to Area 11?"
While eating, Chen Ran knew that Fatty Chang would also come, so he wasn't too surprised when Fatty Chang appeared here. What surprised him was that Fatty Chang was also assigned to Area 11. What a coincidence.
Already.
"Haha, brother, it seems that the two of us are going to have a gamble." Fatty Chang said with a wry smile. It is quite troublesome to encounter this kind of thing. Although this little money is nothing to them,
But if you lose, you will inevitably lose face.
Chen Ran didn't pay much attention, not that he didn't care, mainly because he really couldn't afford to lose now. He casually said a few words to Fatty Chang, and when everyone arrived, the betting began.
