After seeing clearly the cutting lines drawn by Mr. Wu, Chen Ran was stunned. The lines drawn by Mr. Wu on the stone could not be said to be cutting lines, because several of the lines were semi-arc shapes. It was obvious that along these lines
Uncuttable.
Others couldn't understand the purpose of these irregular white lines drawn by Mr. Wu on the stone, but Chen Ran knew it all too well, because the lines drawn by Mr. Wu were nothing but descriptions of the appearance of jadeite inside the stone.
Approximate range.
In other words, Mr. Wu described the places where jade may appear inside the stone.
This really surprised Chen Ran.
When he saw Long Jiuye looking at the stone, he was impressed by how Long Jiuye could accurately estimate the condition of the ice material based on his stone gambling experience. Now, although he, Uncle Wu, is not as good as Long Jiu,
Although I have rich experience in gambling on stones, I relied on my knowledge of geology to deduce the internal situation of this giant stone. Not only did I infer it, but I could also describe its approximate location, which made people even more puzzled.
He was surprised. If it weren't for the special nature of this piece of Biaowang wool, he might have wondered whether his uncle Wu also had the same special ability to detect the internal conditions of the stone.
However, the result is obviously not.
I have always heard about Mr. Ma Chongren, another jadeite king in the industry. He can estimate the price of any piece of wool that has not been "opened" in front of him, and he is 100% sure about it. Before this, this
Chen Ran has always been dubious about this statement. It's not that he doesn't believe it. He just feels that this statement is a bit exaggerated. Now, he believes it a little bit.
There is never a shortage of geniuses in this world, and Long Jiuye and Mr. Wu are undoubtedly the geniuses among geniuses. They can no longer be called geniuses. Perhaps it is more specific to call them strange people. Their current achievements and status are obviously not accidental.
, or rather good luck.
When thinking of this, Chen Ran couldn't help but lament his luck. In the eyes of outsiders, he might be considered a strange person, but he knew his background well...
"Hey, Brother Yuan, are you back?"
Chen Rang just sighed a few times when the phone rang. He looked back at the old man and Wu who were still pondering, and then went out to answer the phone. The caller was none other than Ma Zhiyuan.
"I rushed back overnight last night. Are you back too?"
Ma Zhiyuan had something to do with Chen Ran, so he didn't pay too much courtesy to Chen Ran. After answering Chen Ran's question, he asked Chen Ran if two people from the National Security Bureau were looking for him this afternoon.
In fact, when he received the call from Ma Zhiyuan, Chen Ran guessed that Ma Zhiyuan was looking for him for this matter. This shows that the two National Security Bureau people went to the Municipal National Security Bureau or the Municipal Bureau for help after being angry with him.
Went. Since Ma Zhiyuan called him and asked him, it means that this matter has been suppressed by Ma Zhiyuan. This also reassures him. As long as Ma Zhiyuan can withstand the pressure of the national security and support him, then he is safe.
Yes, at least it is safe in Tianzhong City.
So he didn't hide it from Ma Zhiyuan, and told Ma Zhiyuan the details of his encounter with the two people from the National Security Bureau in the afternoon. In fact, until now, he was still a little confused about how the people from the National Security Bureau suddenly came to him, and he didn't know what Ma Zhiyuan had done.
Have you asked those two people from the National Security Bureau?
In the end, Ma Zhiyuan didn't know anything about it. He called Chen Ran to ask what was going on. From this point, we can see his attitude towards Chen Ran.
Ma Zhiyuan, the mayor of a city, is not afraid of people from the National Security Bureau. First, he does not do anything wrong and is not afraid of ghosts knocking on his door. Second, even if someone wants to harm him, he will not let the National Security Bureau do it because it will have a bad influence.
, even if it is kept secret, if he is taken away by the National Security Bureau, the news will be leaked sooner or later. If he, the leader of a city, is taken away by the National Security Bureau, the impact will be very bad.
He is not afraid of people from the National Security Bureau, but he has a headache. What he is afraid of is that the National Security Bureau arrests people within his jurisdiction. Once the National Security Bureau takes action personally, he will basically arrest either a spy or a traitor. And if this spy
Or if a traitor has never done anything, generally speaking, he will not be caught. Once he is caught, it means that he has taken certain actions, whether successful or unsuccessful. Since he has done something, he will inevitably be implicated in a lot of things.
, if it is a little more serious, it may implicate himself.
This is also the reason why people from the National Security Bureau went to handle the case below, and the people below were so cooperative. It was mainly to show that it had nothing to do with them, and it was not because they were afraid of the National Security Bureau.
Now that the people from the National Security Bureau are coming to arrest people, Ma Zhiyuan's most beneficial approach is undoubtedly to either ask the people below to cooperate well, or to ignore it and stay out of the matter. Even if the person he wants to arrest is one of his own, then
After resisting the pressure and not letting people from the National Security Bureau arrest people, generally speaking, he will not take the initiative to inquire about the inside story. He just doesn't let the National Security Bureau arrest people. Then when something happens, he can say that he is unaware of it.
Although he has to take responsibility for the situation, he leaves himself a leeway. After all, once the national security personnel handle the case, it will involve national security, and the circumstances are very serious.
But Ma Zhiyuan did not follow the above attitudes. Instead, he directly asked Chen Ran what was going on. After he inquired, if Chen Ran really had a problem, he would not be able to escape.
From this point we can see the extent to which he trusts Chen Ran.
"By the way, Xiaoran, you haven't joined the party yet, have you?"
Ma Zhiyuan didn't mention it after hearing Chen Ran say that he had no idea about it. He pondered for a moment and asked Chen Ran as if he suddenly became interested.
When Chen Ran heard this, he became confused: "Join the party? Why should I join the party if I don't engage in politics?"
Hearing Chen Ran's words, Ma Zhiyuan chuckled: "Can't you join the party if you don't join politics? Who can say what will happen in the future. Maybe you will take the road of politics in a few years. Joining the party is better than joining the party."
The earlier the better. The earlier you join the party, the higher your party experience. This is qualifications. After all, you can now be regarded as the representative of outstanding young people in our Tianzhong City. I also want to establish your image as an outstanding young man at the next Municipal People’s Congress.
Come on, even if you don’t want to be in politics, you can still join the CPPCC and the National People’s Congress.”
In fact, he only came up with this idea after he left the Cao family last night. With the resources of the Cao family, it would be a pity if Chen Ran did not join politics. Moreover, officialdom generally pays attention to successors, and he did not have a successor in the officialdom.
, if Chen Ran enters politics, not only can he be regarded as his successor, but it will undoubtedly be great if the two of them can fight side by side.
"Well, Brother Yuan, let's forget it. I'm so busy that I don't have the time."
Chen Ran said with a wry smile, he was traveling all over the world now, and he was really not used to it when he was suddenly asked to sit in an office.
And in the past, let alone having backers such as Ma Zhiyuan, Cao Guoxiong, and even He Zhenhua in the officialdom, even if he had no backers, it would be a high-profile matter for him to enter the government and become a civil servant. But now,
But it's different. Of course, it's not that Chen Ran has never thought about entering politics. It's just that he knows very well where his advantages lie. Although his memory is good now, his advantage lies more in energy.
Regarding the special ability of the aperture, he joined politics. The energy aperture did not help him much. At present, the energy aperture mainly helps him to make money. Since the main purpose is to make money, to put it bluntly,
In fact, it can be said that the advantage lies in time. The more time he is given, the more wealth he can accumulate. And if he joins politics, his time will undoubtedly be wasted. After all, even if he has many backers, he still wants to
If you are promoted, you must follow the official rules step by step.
Moreover, there are many rules in the officialdom, and there are many natural enemies. No matter how powerful you are, if you touch someone else's things, they will fight for you, and you may get trapped. He makes a lot of money, and there is no problem in using money to hit people.
, but if he joins politics, he obviously cannot throw money at people. Fighting with people every day is not only not his strong point, but also not what he wants.
"You kid...where are you now? Let's have dinner together tonight."
Hearing Chen Ran's refusal so simply, Ma Zhiyuan couldn't help but feel happy. He, the head of a city, would have been very excited if he had invited someone to be an official. But Chen Ran was not very happy.
However, he didn't force Chen Ran. He just said that he wanted to have a meal with Chen Ran. The purpose of the meal was naturally to talk.
Before he came out of Cao's house last night, he had been holding back a lot of things to say to Chen Ran. He mainly wanted to ask what the relationship between Chen Ran and Cao's family was. Although he didn't get what he wanted during the trip to Cao's house.
The result, but in fact the result was better than he imagined. Needless to say, Minister Cao's attitude towards him last night, and this morning, Minister Cao's secretary specially called him to tell him that he should
When he has time, he should call Minister Cao to report on his work. As the head of a city, it is expected that he should report to Minister Cao. But if Minister Cao’s secretary said this, it would undoubtedly be different. For
For him, this was a signal. Without thinking, he could guess that after he and Yang Dongsheng left, Minister Cao asked about the relationship between Chen Ran and him, which led to the phone call this morning.
What does this mean? It shows that Chen Ran can even influence Cao Guoxiong's attitude to a certain extent.
"What's wrong, Brother Yuan, do you want to treat me to dinner?" Hearing Ma Zhiyuan's words, Chen Ran also became happy. He could naturally guess why Ma Zhiyuan wanted to have dinner with him, but this time he
Where is the time?
"The old man is also here with me, how about we eat together tonight?"
"Well, why did the old man go to your place? Let's forget it. We will meet again another day, so let's talk like this for now. By the way, you'd better be careful in the recent period. People from Guoan are all
They will not give up easily until the servants are stung by the hornet's nest."
Ma Zhiyuan came from a standard education with sticks. He was beaten a lot when he was a child. When he saw the old man, it was like a mouse meeting a cat. The old man is still the one he fears the most. Even though he is already so old, he is still a member of the market.
Long, but the old man didn't realize this, he still scolded him when it was time to reprimand him. He and Chen Ran had dinner together to ask about Chen Ran's Cao family affairs. If the old man was present, he would probably scold him directly if he mentioned this matter.
It rolled far away.
"Okay, I understand."
Chen Ran thought about it and he didn't plan to leave Tianzhong City during this period anyway. As long as he didn't leave Tianzhong City, it should be safe.
"Mr. Tang? Tang Dachao? Just say I'm not at home. That's it. Forget it, just bring them in."
Chen Ran hung up Ma Zhiyuan's call, but the phone rang again. The number was called by the guard of the Villa. After he answered the call, the guard told him that a Mr. Tang named Tang came to visit him.
.
When he first heard about it, Chen Ran thought it was Tang Jianzhong who came to look for him. He also wondered why Tang Jianzhong didn't call him when he came over. However, he suddenly heard the doorman say that the other party's name was Tang Dachao.
Chen Ran frowned when he heard the other party's name was Tang Dachao. He still remembered the name, but what made him wonder was how this damn Japanese came to Tianzhong City and even came to his house.
Let's not say that Chen Ran doesn't have a good impression of this Japanese devil. He just wants to say that the people from the National Security Bureau are still keeping an eye on him, so he is unwilling to deal with this Japanese devil.
, he had just offended the people from the National Security Bureau. If the National Security People wanted to punish him, they would undoubtedly have an excuse to investigate this Japanese devil.
Originally, he had no intention of meeting the Japanese, but he heard from the guard that he seemed to have already inquired about him clearly. Not only did he clearly know that he was at home, but he also knew that he had just returned with a truckload of goods.
As soon as Chen Ran heard this, he knew that the other party might have bribed people from the freight company as early as Tengchong. It cannot be said to be bribery. After all, such things can be found out by just asking.
The other party said so. After thinking about it, he simply let the other party in. If he didn't let the other party in under such circumstances, it would seem that he had something shady. Anyway, he only knew
The other party's name is Tang Dachao, he is Taiwanese, I don't know anything else, and he wants to see what this Japanese devil wants to do. If he wants to get something from him or take advantage of him, then
Don't even think about it.
"Mr. Chen, please forgive me for intruding. Your house is really big, hehe..."
Not long after hanging up the phone from the doorman, two Japanese soldiers, Tang Dachao and Guo Tiandao, drove over in a Honda car. Tang Dachao's attitude was nothing to say. After meeting Chen Ran, he was not only enthusiastic but also extremely sincere.
.
Of course, since Chen Ran knew their identities, his attitude towards them was naturally non-committal.
Chen Ran exchanged greetings with the other party and then took the two of them to the warehouse. Let's call this little Japanese devil Tang Dachao Tang Dachao. Tang Dachao also bluntly said that he heard that the piece of Wangwang wool that Chen Ran had photographed had been shipped back.
He just thought of coming over to take a look, but he didn't say anything about hoping Chen Ran would give up and transfer her love.
Chen Ran brought Tang Dachao and Guo Tiandao to the warehouse and waved to Yang Shijie to accompany them. When Yang Shijie came over, he winked at Yang Shijie and asked Yang Shijie to keep an eye on them. When Chen Ran was in Tengchong, he
He had told Guo Hai and Yang Shijie about their identities, so Yang Shijie knew their identities. After seeing Chen Ran's wink, he secretly nodded to Chen Ran, and then took the two of them to visit Biaowang Stone.
.
After Chen Ran arranged for the two Japanese devils, before he could say a word to the old man, he was pulled aside by the old man and said to him seriously: "Xiao Ran, you'd better transfer this stone out..."
