Chen Ran just heard the old man say that his uncle Wu came from Nanjing for him and was still surprised. Now that he heard what the old man said, he understood what was going on. He did not expect that he, who is known as the "national treasure" in the antique world,
Uncle Wu is also a master of stone gambling. He cannot be called a master of stone gambling. It would be a bit tacky to call a person like Mr. Wu a master of stone gambling. He should be called a great geologist. Of course, this does not mean that he is a master of stone gambling.
A great geologist must be good at betting on stones. It depends on the situation. If he has a very deep study of the geology of Myanmar, which also produces jade stones in Yunnan, then he must have two brushes in terms of betting on stones.
Yes, because if you study the geology of Yunnan and Myanmar, you must study the geological conditions of the veins that produce jadeite stones.
Although Chen Ran still didn't know whether his uncle Wu's estimate was accurate, he could roughly guess it from the old man's expression. It was obvious that his uncle Wu came from Nanjing because the old man heard that he had brought back a piece like this.
The valuable stone was specially invited to Mr. Wu to show him. After all, although he had brought the stone back, he could still resell it if he didn't want to gamble.
The old man's intentions are good. If it were anyone else, he would naturally be wishing for it. After all, Mr. Wu's identity is here, but it would be different if it were Chen Ran. Chen Ran was not happy at all. Of course,
He wasn't unhappy at all, he just didn't care. In the end, no matter what Uncle Wu said, he would cut the stone by himself.
Mr. Wu's attitude and way of observing stones are obviously different from those of professional stone bettors. Professional stone bettors use magnifying glasses and flashlights to observe, and most of what they observe are green belts and pythons on the surface of stones, while Wu
Old but different. Of course, Mr. Wu also observed these things, but from a different angle. In addition to observing, Mr. Wu also touched various surfaces and parts of the stone from time to time. After touching it, he also
Put your fingers to your mouth, stick out your tongue, and lick it gently as if to taste it. After tasting the taste, you will extend your fingers from time to time and bend them into a V shape, tapping on various parts of the stone as if to taste it.
Listening to the sound, Mr. Wu's way of judging stone materials gave Chen Ran a lot of insight.
"Junior Brother Chen, I heard that you spent 300 million to buy this stone. Are you planning to hoard it, have you thought about it, or are you planning to cut it yourself?" Chen Ran was looking at it with great interest.
, but a soft voice of inquiry suddenly sounded next to him.
The title "Junior Brother Chen" is a bit unfamiliar to Chen Ran. When he first heard it, he didn't realize that this sentence was addressed to him. It wasn't until the sound came that he couldn't help but look over and saw the man who was supporting Zhang Shuchun just now.
Mr. Wu didn't know when the middle-aged man who got off the bus stood next to him and looked at him with a smile on his face. Only then did he realize that these words were meant for him.
"This is your Senior Brother Fan."
The old man was standing with Chen Ran. He naturally heard the middle-aged man talking to Chen Ran. When he saw that Chen Ran didn't seem to recognize the middle-aged man, the old man reminded Chen Ran.
"Senior Brother Fan."
This Senior Brother Fan is about forty years old. He wears a pair of glasses and has a gentle appearance. He looks like he is working as a secretary to the leader. Not to mention, Chen Ran just thought that this Senior Brother Fan was his Senior Uncle Wu.
He was a secretary, but he didn't expect that he was not a secretary, but a disciple. Since the old man introduced him, Chen Ran couldn't help but say hello.
"Haha, Junior Brother Chen, although we are meeting for the first time, Senior Brother, I have admired you for a long time." Even though this Senior Brother Fan looks gentle and gentle, his words are not ambiguous at all.
In just a few words, Chen Ran and I seemed to have been old friends for more than ten years.
Uncle Wu was still observing the stones, so Chen Ran chatted with Senior Brother Fan for a while. After talking for a while, he also understood the purpose of Senior Brother Fan's conversation with him. It seemed that
I also fell in love with his king stone, and wanted to ask if he had any intention of selling it. Although the other party didn't give him a price, he also said that his brothers would never let him suffer. Of course,
The fact that they are all brothers also has another meaning, that is, the bid should not be too outrageous. It is still okay to let him make a small change. According to Chen Ran's understanding, the small change the other party said should be 10 million.
It was purchased for 310 million and 500 million, and after just two or three days of transfer, 10 million was credited. It looks really good. Of course, this is to outsiders, but to Chen Ran.
, Needless to say, Chen Ran would not transfer it anyway, so he just talked to the other party, but did not mention how to deal with this piece of stone. As for Senior Brother Fan, he didn't seem to be too anxious.
.
In fact, what Chen Ran didn't know was that his senior brother Fan was not in a hurry, but was waiting, waiting for something, naturally waiting for Mr. Wu to speak.
Chen Ran, the full name of Brother Fan is Fan Zhicheng. Fan Zhicheng is named after Zhicheng, but in fact he doesn’t know Zhicheng at all. He is a good person. He still understands his mentor’s ability to identify jade stones. As long as his mentor speaks.
, then it’s basically not wrong.
There are two things that Fan Zhicheng feels most regretful about in his life. The first is that his own national treasure mentor donated all the national treasures and cultural relics he obtained to the country without leaving them to him. The second thing is that he himself
Although this mentor of mine has a very deep research on Burmese jade stones, he only treats them as academic research. He has never thought about gambling on stones, and he never even helps others to look at the stones, even he is no exception.
Speaking of which, Chen Ran is an exception. This is also because Chen Ran's situation is a bit special this time. First of all, it is because Mr. Wu and the old man have a deep relationship. The old man spoke for Chen Ran, and secondly, it is because of the stone.
The price is really too high. If it's worth 300 million yuan, it will make people bankrupt. Mr. Wu knows how much the old man values Chen Ran, and he can't bear to sit back and watch.
When he came with Mr. Wu, Fan Zhicheng had nothing to think about, but when he saw this piece of King Stone, he was so moved that he even thought about eating it.
of.
Of course, there is a premise for this, and the premise is that his mentor has spoken and is optimistic about this stone.
At this time, Fan Zhicheng told Chen Ran in a very subtle way that he intended to eat this stone just to give Chen Ran a vaccination. Otherwise, if he waited until his mentor spoke, he would undoubtedly be in trouble in front of the two elders.
He is a bit suspected of taking advantage of Chen Ran, his junior brother, and now he and Chen Ran are vaguely mentioning it. After his mentor speaks, it will be logical for him to mention it again. Whether he can eat it depends on how much price he adds.
Of course, if his mentor is not optimistic about this stone, then just pretend that he said nothing.
"Brother, how do you feel?"
When Chen Ran and Fan Zhicheng were chatting, when they saw Wang Liang bringing in two chairs, they stepped forward to take them, and gave one to the old man to prepare for Mr. Wu. However, the old man's buttocks were not warmed up just after he sat down.
Then I saw Mr. Wu standing up as if he had finished reading, and he quickly stood up too.
Chen Ran, Fan Zhicheng and Zhang Shuchun also came up, and other people in the warehouse also looked at Mr. Wu. Although they didn't know who Mr. Wu was, they could guess from the situation that Mr. Wu was an expert in this field.
For example, Master Zhao has even imagined whether Mr. Wu is Chen Ran's teacher. Otherwise, what else can Chen Ran do with his ability in stone gambling? It can also be seen that everyone present knows Wu.
Elderly people, including Chen Ran, have special respect for Mr. Wu.
This made him extremely excited. He didn't expect to meet Chen Ran's mentor as soon as he arrived. Chen Ran was so good at gambling on stones, so wouldn't the person who taught Chen Ran the method of gambling on stones be even more powerful?
He didn't know that Chen Ran's respect for Mr. Wu was not because of gambling on stones, but because firstly, Mr. Wu was Chen Ran's elder, and secondly, people like Mr. Wu who knew his identity really understood his character.
There is no one who is not in awe, and strange people like Mr. Wu are indeed worthy of respect.
Mr. Wu didn't say anything. He just frowned, looked down at the whole stone, and pondered. After pondering for a long time, he finally responded. However, he did not answer the old man's question, but asked while frowning and pondering.
: "Is there a stone pen?"
"Yes." Hearing Mr. Wu's request, Chen Ran didn't understand what it meant, but he also looked at Zhang Shuchun. Everything he had here was brought by Zhang Shuchun. If Zhang Shuchun knew more about him than him, Zhang Shuchun didn't need him.
Reminder, after hearing Mr. Wu's words, he no longer smiled playfully. He was just startled, then nodded and took out a pack of stone pens from a drawer on the side of the table where a small grinding wheel for carving jade was placed.
Mr. Wu still didn't say anything, as if he was still deep in thought. He took out a stone pen and pondered for a while, then circled the stone in a circle. While going around, he also drew twelve lines on the ground next to the stone to mark the outside of the stone.
Divided into twelve parts.
After dividing it into twelve parts, Mr. Wu chose one of the parts and started writing and calculating on the ground. The old man, Chen Ran and Fan Zhicheng, stood behind Mr. Wu and watched. It was just that everyone present except
Except for the old man, no one really saw what Mr. Wu wrote. They could only see that Mr. Wu wrote a lot of formula-like things.
"What is he writing?" The security guards and Master Qin and Master Zhao also stood on both sides and watched. One of the lively security guards couldn't hold it in anymore and couldn't help but asked in a low voice. It was just the man's words.
As he exited the door, he was slapped by the person next to him and gave him a lesson: "Can't you see... don't say anything." In fact, what this person wanted to say was, if you don't understand, then don't say anything. But as he said it, he suddenly remembered that this was a bit wrong.
If it's not right, I take it back.
In fact, not to mention that they couldn't understand it, even Chen Ran couldn't understand it. Although he learned some knowledge about mineral veins from the old man, he only learned about the factors and conditions for the formation of mineral veins.
After Mr. Wu calculated several lines of formulas on the part of the ground where he was standing, he moved two steps to the next position and continued to calculate while looking at the stones in front of him. After calculating this part, he moved again
When it comes to the next part, just move it part by part.
However, when we moved to the seventh part, it was obvious that Mr. Wu's physical strength could no longer support him and the calculation speed slowed down. Seeing this, Chen Ran quietly released several energy apertures on Mr. Wu's body.
Mr. Wu was still immersed in calculations and didn't pay attention, but it was obvious that not only was he more energetic, but his calculation speed was also a little faster. Seeing Mr. Wu's appearance, Chen Ran simply released it again
Several energy apertures passed.
After releasing the energy aperture for Mr. Wu, Chen Ran discovered that Cao Huiyao was standing beside him at some point and looking at Mr. Wu's calculations. When he looked, he didn't see the little Ruoruo.
Cao Huiyao turned around and saw Chen Ran's appearance. As if she knew what Chen Ran was thinking, she whispered to Chen Ran that the little guy was watching TV in the room.
Chen Ran nodded and looked at Mr. Wu again. Mr. Wu had already finished calculating all the twelve spaces he had divided and was now drawing lines on the stone with a stone pen.
Seeing this scene, Chen Ran thought that Mr. Wu was drawing the lines on how to cut the stone. From this, he wondered whether Mr. Wu was also optimistic about this stone.
It didn't take long to work on the stone. When Mr. Wu finished drawing the line, the old man was still immersed in Mr. Wu's calculation formula. Chen Ran was curious about how Mr. Wu planned to cut the stone, so he stepped forward to take a look.
Look, before he even took a second look, he was stunned and stunned.
