The three of them sat down, and Miaomiaodan promptly brought a pot of fragrant tea. Sanden waved his hand to Miaomiaodan and said, "Go and get the two boxes of Cuban cigars under my desk. "
Xu Qing smiled and said: "I happened to be out of food and was about to buy two boxes of cigarettes!"
He has never tasted cigars, but he smokes cigarettes often. However, these cigars are only known for their reputation and have never tasted them. The cigars here in Sandon must be of the highest quality, and it is just a good time to try them out.
Miao Miaodan took two flat pine boxes and placed them on the coffee table. He opened one of them and found ten brown cigars placed side by side, as well as a metal finger buckle for cigarette butts and a box of red matches.
Sandon put the finger scissors on his thumb and index finger, picked up a cigar and turned it over, put the cigarette butt into the bite of the finger scissors, gently closed the two fingers, and click, a small section of the cigarette butt was cut off.
The best Cuban cigars are all rolled by hand. The tobacco leaves are fermented for at least five years. After rolling, the inside is quite dense, even the cigarette butts. If a small section is not cut off to leave a mouthful, the cigarette will be extremely difficult to pull out, which is even more difficult.
Not to mention enjoying the pleasure of smoking.
After doing all this, Sanden handed the first cigar to Xu Qing: "I am used to lighting cigars with matches, you can try it too."
Xu Qing took the cigar and held it in his mouth, picked up a match and lit it, took a puff, and then exhaled the smoke from his nostrils. The cigar was rich and mellow, without any spicy taste in the mouth, but with a hint of sweetness.
The changing aroma makes people feel a little drifting, and only those who have smoked real Cuban cigars can understand the meaning of cigarettes.
"How is it? It tastes good!" Sandon smiled and took a puff of the cigar. He held the smoke in his mouth and slowly exhaled it. The smoke rose gradually and formed a spiral smoke ring.
Xu Qing smiled and said: "Smoking is good. Uncle Sanden called me here just to invite me to smoke, right?"
The smile on Sanden's face faded and he said sternly: "Qingzi, you can also unlock treasures like the Jade Dzi Bead. It can be seen that you are extremely talented in stone gambling. You must know that the most important thing in this stone gambling industry is
Luck, experience alone cannot do much, the purpose of inviting you here this time is to use your luck."
Xu Qing smiled and touched his nose and said, "I've always had good luck. I don't know what you mean by borrowing luck. Can you be more specific?"
Sanden raised the corner of his mouth and said: "Don't be busy, let's see how your hidden mark is unlocked first." After saying that, he took out a similar remote control from his pocket and pressed it against a jade wall.
Chacha——
A piece of wall five feet above the ground flipped up amidst the squeaking sounds of the machine, revealing a huge LCD screen, which turned out to be a built-in closed-circuit television.
The screen flashed, and a picture appeared on it. Several people wearing blue cloth work clothes were holding electric cutters to decompose the huge hidden mark king. The picture was so clear that even the sounds coming from the surroundings could be heard.
Hear it completely clearly.
Meng Shicheng and his wife stood less than one meter away from the stone dissection area, watching the staff dismantling the stone with all their attention. They would also shout from time to time and arrange for them to cut as far as possible to the center line. Such a large piece of wool would be cut in the middle.
There won't be much loss if it is opened, and besides, this was arranged by Xu Qing in advance.
There were people all around Maomao, which could be said to be three floors inside and three outside. Fortunately, there were more than ten military police armed with steel guns maintaining order, and a cordon was set up. Except for Meng Shicheng, his wife and Jiang Shengnan, there were no other people.
No one is allowed to enter and interfere with the solution of the stone. This battle is really grand.
Xu Qing smoked a cigar, sipped fragrant tea, and watched the live broadcast with his legs crossed. He seemed to be strategizing. Compared to Meng Shicheng, who had blue veins popping out from shouting, he was quite leisurely.
Chi chi chi——
The cutter slowly sank into the stone and then lifted up, repeating this process over and over again. This was just because the size of the piece was so large that it really took a lot of effort to untie it. If the previous stone cutting was compared to killing a chicken, then untying it would be difficult.
This piece of Biao Wang is no different from slaughtering a cow.
In the absence of the cook, the unloading of the oxen was naturally much slower. After a while, the several stone unloaders were sweating profusely from exhaustion, but they succeeded in attracting the attention of everyone in the exhibition hall to this place. Under the spotlight, even
The faces of the military police who maintained order had a proud expression on their faces.
"Qingzi, will this big bid win?" Thinking of the price used by Xu Qing in the bid, Guo Sangkun couldn't help but feel nervous and couldn't help but ask aloud.
Xu Qing took a sip of tea, his face as calm as ever, and said calmly: "Yes, I had a feeling when I first saw this piece of gold, it will definitely make me the biggest winner in this public sale.
"
Sandon smiled and said: "You are so confident. No wonder you will use 25.18 million to win this winning bid. If you really bet on a big increase, I am afraid someone will hit his head against the wall."
Xu Qing pretended to be surprised and said: "Hit the wall? Why?"
Sanden smiled and said: "You may not know that there is a bid with an amount of exactly 25 million. Your kid won it with an extra 180,000. It would be strange if he didn't regret the huge increase and hit the wall.
Already."
In fact, Sanden said this somewhat against his will, because he knew the origin of this big bid better than anyone else, but he just didn't want to throw cold water on it when he saw Xu Qing's confident look.
Peng!
The big mark king was divided into two along the center line. There was a burst of sighs at the scene. Because the cut surfaces of the two pieces of material did not show green, the staff specially connected a water pipe and cleaned the cut surfaces. Everyone saw
The two pieces were completely white, with not even a speck of scattered emeralds on them.
The onlookers began to talk about it. Judging from the cross-section, it was indeed a piece of raw jadeite, but the performance was a little too bad. The material was priced at more than 20 million yuan, and there was no sign of greenness at all with this cut. It was probably
Hanging.
Meng Shicheng saw the smooth and clean cut surface first, and his heart skipped a beat, but then he remembered what Xu Qing said when he left, raised his head, took a breath, and started shouting again.
"Be careful, walk slowly along the cut surface, hey! Take your time, don't cut too much..."
Xu Qing saw all this, and even Meng Shicheng's words were clearly understood, and he couldn't help but laugh secretly.
Seeing that this guy was still laughing, Guo Sangkun said puzzledly: "You are still laughing, and half of the knife has collapsed."
Xu Qing smiled and said: "Not necessarily, I think this knife is just right."
Sanden squinted at Xu Qing, then turned his eyes to the display screen. Under Meng Shicheng's repeated instructions, the staff had to carefully cut in along the cutting surface, and then cut across the cut after about ten centimeters.
Get a thin slice, and you can quickly tell whether there will be green in the wool.
Sure enough, after cutting off the second piece of skin, a stone analyzer closest to Meng Shicheng suddenly shouted with joy: "It's foggy and there's green!"
