After Shen Wanjun spit out this number, Zhang Jun, who had just joked about his low reserves, suddenly stopped talking and became completely mute.
Ning Xuanxuan asked with great interest: "Wow, Xue Chen, how many shares do you hold?"
"Thirty-five percent."
"There are quite a few."
"Let me go, it turns out that what you gained the most during your outing this time was not these antiques, but this jade mine." Wang Dong glared and said with surprise.
Yan Ruxing said suspiciously: "Xue Chen, you seemed to have talked about cooperating with other mining companies for mining, but why did they give you 35% of the shares?" The meaning of the words is very clear. You are alone. Is it possible that you are alone? When I opened my mouth, more than one-third of the shares came, which could be worth several hundred million.
"Why?" Xue Chen poured himself a cup of tea, "It's very simple. First of all, I discovered this jade mine alone. Secondly..."
"Wait, Xue Chen, please explain first how you discovered this jade mine. Aren't you in the capital? How did you discover the jade mine in a barren mountain far in the northwest?" Ning Xuanxuan's beautiful eyes were filled with tears. He was confused, interrupted Xue Chen, and started to inquire more curiously.
"It's a long story..." Xue Chen took a sip of tea and briefly told the story of his participation in the charity auction. He also talked about the pictures he drew on a wooden box from the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China. Discover the secret process.
Everyone looked at each other in shock and felt a little incredible.
Qi Hu was also slightly stunned. After a long time, he suddenly smiled, gave Xue Chen a thumbs up, and then said to Zhang Qiao beside him: "How about it, I told you that brother Xue is not simple, isn't it?"
Zhang Qiao also nodded, and gradually realized that the young man praised by everyone in Qi Hu was indeed a bit extraordinary, and could even be said to be eye-catching.
Zhang Jun also became silent.
"I also went to the northwest a few years ago, just to look for some better pieces of Hetian jade, but I saw the chaos of mining Hetian jade, which seemed to be divided among the heroes. Almost all Hetian jade products produced were of good quality. The jade producing areas have all been occupied, and there will usually be violent fights over territory. You and your friends are both outsiders, so it won't be easy for you to gain a foothold anywhere." Yan Ruxing said.
Xue Chen narrowed his eyes: "Uncle Yan is right, he encountered some troubles. When the jade mine was just started to be excavated, there was..."
When Xue Chen said that three mining companies had united and gathered more than fifty people to go up the mountain in the middle of the night to destroy the newly established mine, although they knew that they would survive safely, everyone present could not help but feel slightly sad. His expression changed.
"Fifty people...these people are simply lawless!" Ning Xuanxuan said angrily.
"In the face of huge interests, legal constraints will become dispensable." Shen Wanjun said lightly.
Wang Dong put his arms around Xue Chen's neck, smiled and said: "Hey, it doesn't matter. With Lao Xue here, not to mention fifty people, even five hundred people will definitely not take advantage, and they may still suffer a loss."
"Xue Chen, did you organize a lot of workers to protect the mine? Did you start fighting with those people? Tell me quickly." Ning Xuanxuan asked eagerly.
Xue Chen shook his head and briefly explained the next thing in a few sentences.
It was learned that Xue Chen actually obtained a twenty-man army from the local military region to protect the mine through connections, and those who made trouble had to be arrested. Everyone was surprised by this result, and they all wanted to know who Xue Chen used through
Because of the relationship, there was so much energy to mobilize the army, but Xue Chen did not go into details.
Near noon, Wang Dong hosted and invited everyone.
At the table, Xue Chen looked at Qi Hu and Zhang Qiao sitting together. He was about to ask when they would hold a wedding, but suddenly he remembered that it would be the beginning of the month in a few days, and Andrew had informed him that they would go to the United States to attend the wedding together.
For Carol and Connie's wedding, they will be on a plane again in two or three days.
Just as he thought, on the way back, he received a call from Andrew.
"Hey, Xue Chen, you haven't forgotten Connie and Carol's wedding, right? The two of them called me several times and mentioned that they must invite you. Even I didn't get this treatment." Andrew complained.
.
"Of course I haven't forgotten it," Xue Chen said with a smile.
"That's great. I've already booked the date. The flight will be in three days. If you have no problem, I will let Amanda book the flight."
Xue Chen said he had no objection.
Andrew also smiled and continued: "Xue, we have known each other for a while, but I have not been to your home as a guest."
"Welcome at any time." Xue Chen said.
"That's great, let's do it tomorrow." Andrew hung up the phone happily.
The next day, Andrew and Amanda came to Xue Chen's home as guests. They both expressed their love for Gray Ball. When they saw the little golden eagle, they were both very surprised.
Andrew even said that it was stronger and incredible than the bald eagle, the national bird of the United States. He admired Xue Chen for being able to raise such a majestic eagle.
After resting at home for two days, Xue Chen once again had to leave Haicheng for a while and boarded a plane flying to the United States. There were three people traveling with him, Andrew and Amanda.
This was his first time going abroad, so he naturally couldn't help but research the destination online before setting off. Andrew, Carol and Connie were all from California, the United States.
California is located on the west coast and is the most developed state in the United States. The world-famous Hollywood and Silicon Valley are both located in this state, and its total economic volume even exceeds that of France.
"Xue Chen, have you never been to the United States?" Andrew, who was sitting on the left, asked.
"First time." Xue Chen said.
"Then you must play for a short while and let Amanda be your tour guide. I think you will have an unforgettable time." Andrew said with a wink.
Xue Chen smiled helplessly, and glanced at Amanda, who was sitting quietly on the right, and saw that she was resting on a comfortable chair with her eyes closed. This posture made her bulging breasts even more spectacular. She almost wanted to open her coat and bounce.
Comes out the same.
The seats in the first-class cabin of this aircraft are arranged in a circle. Every four large leather seats surround a round table with some pastries and drinks placed on the round table.
Andrew sat on Xue Chen's right, Amanda on the left, and opposite Xue Chen sat a thin man who looked to be in his early twenties, wearing a sweater that concealed a skull, which looked very fashionable.
At this time, he said to Andrew and Xue Chen very familiarly: "Hey, two friends, it is really fate that we can sit on the same plane."
Xue Chen simply nodded, but Andrew seemed to be very happy to socialize with strangers and replied enthusiastically: "Hello."
The young man in the sweatshirt was very happy that Andrew was so enthusiastic and said with a smile: "This is really a long journey. Why don't we play some games to pass the time, such as playing poker?"
While he was talking, the young man in the sweatshirt flipped his hands, and a brand new deck of playing cards appeared in his palm. After opening the package, he played with the playing cards flexibly with ten fingers, making a crisp and sweet clattering sound.
Putting away the cakes and drinks on the round table, the young man in the sweatshirt flicked his hand, and three cards flew out from the poker in his hand. The cards were face up, and they were three Aces of different suits.
"See? These are three Aces of different suits. Now I turn it over and move it. Can you still guess which one is the Ace of Hearts?"
The young man in the sweatshirt moved the three cards back and forth with his hands very sensitively, but not very fast. Xue Chen glanced at them and stopped looking at them, but Andrew nailed them with great interest.
When the young man in the sweatshirt stopped moving, Andrew immediately reached out and opened the middle card: "This is it." When the card was turned over, it turned out to be the Ace of Hearts. Andrew smiled and said it was not difficult.
The young man in the sweatshirt moved the three cards again, a little faster.
The two of them went back and forth and played more than a dozen games in a row. Andrew's choices were both right and wrong.
"Hey, let's play something exciting. How about a hundred dollars a handful? If you guessed it right, I'll give you a hundred dollars. If you guessed wrong, give me a hundred dollars." The young man in a sweatshirt suggested.
Andrew barely thought before he said no problem, just a hundred dollars.
Before Xue Chen left, he brought the "History of the Sui and Tang Dynasties" that he had not finished yet, just to kill the boring time on the plane, so he started reading it.
After spending half an hour and flipping through more than a dozen pages, he glanced at Andrew, who was playing cards with the young man in a sweatshirt. He saw that a pile of one hundred dollars was already placed in front of the young man in a sweatshirt. At a glance, he could see that
It's like four to five thousand dollars.
Andrew shrugged his shoulders towards Xue Chen and said with some embarrassment: "It seems that my eyes and luck are not very good today."
The young man in the sweatshirt was obviously very happy when he won the money. He once again moved the three cards on the table very quickly, which was very fast and easily dazzling.
"It must be this one!" Andrew revealed a card, but it was not the Ace of Hearts, and he lost another hundred dollars.
After Xue Chen took a look, his eyes darkened slightly, and he said at the same time: "Andrew, I think your eyes are blurry, let me play for a while."
"That's fine." Andrew asked the flight attendant for a glass of orange while watching Xue Chen play with the young man in a sweatshirt.
"A hundred dollars a time is too little. It's boring. I think it's a thousand dollars a time." Xue Chen suggested.
The young man in the sweatshirt glanced at Xue Chen and agreed without thinking much. The slightly upturned corners of his mouth and the sparkle in his eyes showed that he was very happy with Xue Chen's proposal.
How could he be unhappy? Because he is a professional gambler! Despite his young age, he already has five years of experience in professional competitions and has participated in hundreds of official games. (To be continued)
