Chapter 608 There are many traps in the stone betting circle
Shen Yu listened quietly to the old butler's description, with a calm expression on his face. Even though the old butler bluntly said that the material was rubbish, he could not see any emotional fluctuations.
He just stood there quietly, with a trace of calmness rare for young people in his eyes.
When the old housekeeper saw this, he couldn't help but asked strangely: "Young man, I said your material is terrible, why aren't you angry?"
Shen Yu shrugged his shoulders and replied calmly and indifferently: "Why are you angry, senior? What you said is the truth, senior. If this piece of material of mine is not put into those piles of old pits, it will be the fate of a brick.
"Even if you give it to an expert in stone gambling, others may not be willing to take it. After all, you have to spend time and money to solve the stone."
The old housekeeper became interested and said, "My little friend, you do have something interesting. Even if it is true, don't you, a young man, have a competitive spirit? Even if it is not a sarcastic comment on Mai Mang, I am ignorant, but you still have to refute me a few words. Bar?"
Shen Yu thought to himself that this old man really had a childlike innocence, so he simply turned against the customer and said, "Senior, you always said that you have bet twice on the glass imperial green. What do you think of my brick material? Do you think it can produce green, or do you think it can produce green? Will it definitely collapse?"
After saying that, there was a trace of inquiry in his eyes, and he stared at the old butler closely, obviously wanting to test the other person's opinions on stone gambling.
The old housekeeper obviously noticed the deep meaning of Shen Yu's words. He stared at the oval wool on the stone table for dozens of seconds, and then slowly said word by word: "The piece of material you chose will definitely not be green, but it has many The big ones may be red or purple."
When Shen Yu heard this, his head suddenly buzzed!
How could this old man predict the jade flesh inside the stone?
How great is this?
You must know that the other party does not have clairvoyance and relies entirely on his rich experience and extraordinary eyesight to make his judgment.
There is a sky outside the sky!
Absolutely heavenly!
At the same time, Shen Yu's doubts became more intense.
How could such a person fail in gambling?
Even if the bet fails, you won't go bankrupt.
He thought for a moment, and suddenly an idea flashed in his mind, "Is it possible?"
Taking a long breath, Shen Yu expressed his speculation, "Senior, when you bet on those two pieces of material, did you sign any other agreement or contract with additional terms? For example, you couldn't bet on some high-end Jade, will it be deemed that the contract has not been completed, and how many times the deposit loss needs to be compensated to the other party?"
"Huh?" The old butler's eyes were fixed, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, "How do you know? Have you heard my story elsewhere?"
Shen Yu rolled his eyes and said helplessly: "Old man, I'm not stupid. You have such a good eye when it comes to betting on stones. According to common sense, you must have a lot of savings. Even if you buy two pieces, it is equivalent to the king of jade auction. A high-level semi-gambling jade material, if it hits the sky, you will lose all your savings.
"Even if you borrow some money, but the residual value of the wool is still there, you won't end up in a situation where you are almost dead on the street due to debt collection. So I surmise that you must have signed a paper document that is beyond your ability, and you have the necessary qualifications." Legal effect!"
The old housekeeper sighed, "You're right. I was too conceited back then. After unlocking two pieces of glass, I vaguely regarded myself as the Half-Step Emerald King. However, because of this conceitedness, I fell into the trap of others and was killed. Someone framed me.
"They came up with an extremely attractive contract, saying that as long as I can unlock the high-grade jade they specified, they will take it all.
“At that time, I was so blinded by the benefits that I signed the contract without carefully reading the contents.
"The next thing you can guess is that not only did I fail to unlock the jade required in the contract, but I also fell into a crisis of huge compensation.
"At this time, they were just showing their fangs and using all kinds of means to collect debts. After I lost all my money, I still couldn't afford it, so I had no choice but to flee.
"If Mr. Gu hadn't come to his aid, his life would have been lost long ago.
"You see I have gray hair, but in fact I am only 55 years old. This white hair turned gray overnight after gambling on stones!"
When Shen Yu listened to the old housekeeper's story, he felt a sigh of relief in his heart.
The traps in the stone gambling world are really difficult to guard against, and if you are not careful, you will fall into a place of no return.
When facing temptation, you must keep a clear mind and not be blinded by greed.
Thinking of this, Shen Yu's eyes were filled with sincerity, "Senior, can you explain the process in detail? Juniors can learn lessons from this."
A trace of remorse appeared on the old housekeeper's face, "It's actually a well-designed chain of events. First of all, the owner of a jewelry company who had purchased jade from me many times came to me. He said that a big man from the mainland came to his store. The customer is in urgent need of a high-ice Zhengyang green bracelet material of no less than five kilograms, no cotton and no cracks.
"Then, he also offered to pay me a deposit of 3 million yuan in advance. As for me, because we have cooperated with him many times and we have a certain amount of trust, I didn't ask for a deposit. I just agreed to help him look for it."
"A few days later, I was invited to go to a big woolen merchant's shop. There, I happened to see two pieces of high-ice Zhengyang green semi-finished wool. Each piece was no smaller than a 21-inch old-fashioned color TV. .
"Hey, this is like a rain after a long drought, meeting an old friend in a foreign land! At that time, I felt like God was helping me!"
Shen Yu frowned slightly and couldn't help but interject: "Senior, for such a coincidence, didn't you think carefully about the possible problems?"
The old housekeeper smiled awkwardly and said helplessly: "Normally, I would have noticed something was wrong. But this time, the person who asked me to go was a woman I have liked very much since I was young.
"Besides, with her help, I bought more than a dozen pieces of material from that wool merchant, and the jadeite they got was pretty good. Coupled with the greed in my heart, I fell into it in a confused way."
After saying that, the old butler shook his head regretfully, as if he had returned to that desperate moment. The hand that twisted the thermos cup was trembling slightly. He calmed down after taking a few sips of hot tea, and then told: "After a while After some haggling, the price of two and a half yuan of gambling material was set at 11 million.
"The 11 million in the early 1990s is almost equal to 400 million today. I took stock of my assets. In addition to the real estate, I could take out about 800 in cash, which was exactly 3 million short. So I called the jeweler over. Ask him to pay a deposit.
"But who would have thought that he said he had found another client and signed a contract. I was annoyed at the time. Wasn't this kidding me?
“After some arguing, the jeweler finally agreed to pay a deposit and was willing to buy it at the previously negotiated price.
"But he put forward a condition.
"If I can't bet on five kilograms of high-ice Zhengyang green jade meat with no cotton or cracks, I will have to pay him three times the deposit, which is 9 million.
“I was also dazzled by the benefits at that time. Thinking about my eyesight and the quality of the gambling material, I agreed, signed my name in black and white, and pressed my fingerprints.
"But after I cut it open, I was dumbfounded. One piece was an imperial crack, and the cracks were as densely packed as a spider web.
"The other one has green skin, and the jade meat inside is very poor."
Shen Yuqi said: "Senior, this can only be said to be a conspiracy, but it is not a series of tricks, right? If you really offer jade meat, the other party will definitely buy it according to the agreement. Let me see, this Or you're just out of luck."
The old housekeeper shook his head, "If I didn't have enough eyesight, I would be willing to admit defeat, but those two pieces of material have already been tampered with by them."
