Lin Momo was extremely excited now. Not only had she truly become a cultivator, but she had also solved such a big problem for the Lin family.
She hugged Qin Haodong and was about to express her excitement in her own way when there was another knock on the door.
"Mama, I'm back!"
Hearing the little guy's voice, the two of them were in no other mood. They jumped up from the bed and quickly put on their clothes.
Lin Momo immediately felt the benefits of her improved cultivation. Her hands were much more agile than before, and she could even put on clothes incredibly quickly.
She lowered her head and checked her clothes. After making sure there was nothing wrong with her clothes, she reached out and opened the door.
"Tang Tang, why are you back so soon?"
Lin Momo asked subconsciously.
"Mama, we have been out for a long time, Tangtang is hungry!"
After the little guy finished speaking, Lin Momo realized her speech error. Seeing that it was already noon, she and Qin Haodong had been tired of being together for a long time, and her face suddenly felt hot and embarrassed.
Fortunately, the little guy didn't pay attention to her and called to Qin Haodong: "Daddy, let's go eat quickly."
"Okay! Let's go eat."
Qin Haodong held the little guy in his arms, and the four of them walked to the hotel restaurant together.
Lin Momo and Hu Xiaoxian were walking behind, and she whispered: "Xiaoxian, thank you!"
Hu Xiaoxian was very smart and immediately understood what Lin Momo meant. She smiled and said, "Sister Lin, you're welcome. This is what I should do."
Lin Momo took Hu Xiaoxian's hand and said, "You're right, this man is really worrying. You have to help me take care of him in the future."
After hearing this, Hu Xiaoxian's body trembled slightly, and she understood that Lin Momo had completely accepted her.
She knew how much Qin Haodong valued Lin Momo's mother and daughter. She was worried that Lin Momo would reject her before, but now she could finally feel relieved.
After lunch, the four of them toured the city of Pagan together. That evening, Hu Xiaoxian returned to the imperial capital first.
The next day was the day of the rough stone exhibition. Mao Wenlong sent a car early to wait in front of the hotel and took Qin Haodong and his party to the rough stone exhibition area.
The location of the rough stone exhibition is very unique. On the left is an endless river, on the right is a towering mountain, and in the middle is an open space of about 100 acres.
I heard that this was once a mine for jadeite rough. After it was developed, it was backfilled and turned into the current rough stone exhibition area.
Qin Haodong looked around. Although the exhibition had just started, the place was already crowded with businessmen and tourists who came to purchase rough stones.
The format of the exhibition is basically the same as that held by the Lin Group. The large and small rough stones are divided into several areas and then marked with numbers. Customers can purchase them directly after selecting them.
But in terms of scale, the rough stone exhibition here is much larger than the one in China. There are countless rough stones as far as the eye can see. There are also huge crowds of customers buying rough stones from all over the world.
He glanced at Mao Wenlong, who was following him respectfully, and said, "Brother Mao, go and do your business. Let's take a look for ourselves."
As the person in charge of the exhibition, Mao Wenlong did have a lot to do. He said: "Okay, Mr. Qin, just write down the number of which stone you like, and I will arrange for someone to transport it back to China for you."
Then he left his phone number with Qin Haodong, then turned and left.
Qin Haodong held the little guy in his arms and wandered around the exhibition site with a game mentality.
Lin Momo followed with a small notebook and from time to time wrote down the number of the rough stone exposed by Qin Haodong in the notebook.
For this rough stone exhibition, the Lin Group sent a special purchasing group. Liu Yage led a professional jewelry appraiser to purchase in other areas of the venue.
Under such circumstances, Qin Haodong had no regard for ordinary rough stones at all. He chose high-quality products with a premium rate of more than 20 times, and some even reached a hundred times.
Under this situation, the frequency of his attacks was naturally much lower. In addition, in order not to attract attention, he deliberately slowed down and took the little guy beside him from time to time to watch the excitement.
Gambling is human nature. Every time we go to a rough stone exhibition, the most interesting thing is gambling on stones. Many people like to choose a stone and solve it on the spot. In this case, it often attracts a large number of people to watch.
But as long as you gamble, you will lose and you will win. In the stone gambling business, there is a saying that one will be poor and the other will be rich, and one will be in heaven and another in hell. Some people may choose a stone and become a multi-millionaire in the blink of an eye, and some people may become millionaires in an instant.
In a short time, everything went bankrupt.
The three people were wandering around when suddenly there was a noise in front of them, "Jumping into the river! Someone is jumping into the river!"
Not far in front of them, a figure jumped into the large river nearby. The current of the river was very fast. After the man entered, he was swept away by the waves and disappeared in an instant.
Seeing a life disappear like this, people around him began to talk about it.
"What happened? Why did you jump into the river?"
"Do I need to say it? I must have lost the bet. I bought a stone for 2 million, but it was completely ruined. I didn't get a penny back. No one can bear it."
"Then it's not like jumping into the river, right?"
"I heard someone said that the 2 million was borrowed from loan sharks. If you don't jump into the river, you will be beaten to death..."
Lin Momo shook her head and said, "What a pity. Just for a stone?"
Qin Haodong said: "He did not die on a stone, but because of his own greed. He blindly wanted to get something for nothing and get rich overnight. His final destination could only be death."
He has no sympathy for this kind of gambler. Whether it is the world of cultivation or the earth, there are such people everywhere. For those who are addicted to gambling, the final result will be extremely miserable.
The man's death did not cause too many waves at the rough stone exhibition. People soon forgot about him and continued to turn their attention to the stone.
The little guy didn't even understand this. Her big eyes were fixed on the stone gambling site next to her, as if she was very interested in the fact that jadeite could be cut out of the stone.
"Daddy, gambling on stones is fun, Tangtang should also choose a stone and cut it!"
Qin Haodong said: "Okay, how about dad help you choose a stone?"
The little guy shouted: "No, no, Tang Tang has to be chosen by himself."
Lin Momo said: "Haodong, let Tang Tang choose."
She knew Qin Haodong's ability very well, and knew that the stones Qin Haodong selected would cost at least ten times or even dozens of times.
However, after being stimulated by what happened just now, she didn't want her daughter to develop the awareness that gambling is easy, so she let Tang Tang choose on his own, preferably a stone that couldn't solve anything, so that he could have a correct understanding of gambling.
Qin Haodong also understood what Lin Momo meant and said, "Okay, let's choose Tangtang yourself. Which piece are you going to choose?"
The little one looked around. Although Qin Haodong was holding her, there were too many people around and the small stone was still invisible.
She stretched out her white and tender fingers, pointed at a huge rough stone next to her and shouted: "The big one, daddy, Tangtang wants the biggest one!"
Qin Haodong and the other two looked along her little finger and saw that the stone was two meters high and more than one meter wide. Judging from the weight, it should weigh two or three tons. It was the largest rough stone within sight.
He was secretly amused that his daughter's luck in choosing stones was a bit too bad.
Although this stone is large and looks good, with python patterns and cracks, it has no aura at all. After looking at the price, it turned out to be as much as 500,000, and the prices at the exhibition here are all in US dollars.
of.
Half a million US dollars is three to four million Chinese coins, which is enough to buy a sports car. Qin Haodong still felt a little pain after all, and tentatively said to the little guy: "Tang Tang, how about we change it?"
The little guy shook his head and said, "No! No! I want the biggest one."
The black line on Qin Haodong's end, the child's logic is really simple. He chose this stone just because it was the biggest.
What else did he want to say, Lin Momo said: "Forget it, since it was my daughter who chose it, then respect her opinion!"
Looking at Qin Haodong's expression, she knew that this stone would definitely ruin her gambling, but in order to give her daughter a correct understanding of gambling, she decided to buy this stone.
Qin Haodong nodded and said nothing more. Lin Momo waved, called a staff member over, pointed at the big stone and said, "We want this."
The staff said: "Okay, would you like to have the stone dissected here, or should I check it in for you?"
"It will be solved on the spot." After Lin Momo finished speaking, she took out a bank card. Before she could hand it over to the staff, a man and a woman came over from the other side.
The man was about 40 or 50 years old, short and fat, and he probably couldn't see his penis when he peeed. The woman holding his arm was only about 20 years old, tall and very voluptuous.
In this way, when two people are together, it is easy for people to see clearly the relationship between them.
When they walked nearby, the woman pointed to the big stone that the little guy had chosen and said, "Honey, this stone is pretty good. I want to bet on it."
"Why is it so good? You can't tell anything except that it's bigger? Could it be that you also like big rocks when you choose them?"
The man laughed as he spoke, with a dirty look on his face, and anyone could understand the meaning behind his words.
"It's annoying. People just like big ones. What's wrong? Buy them quickly!"
The woman's voice is so coquettish that it can make people's skin crawl.
"Okay, since my baby likes big ones, let's get big ones!" After the short and fat man finished speaking, he waved his hand to the staff next to him, "Did you hear that, my baby wants this stone? Give it to me quickly.
Bring it here, I want to analyze the stone on the spot and see how lucky my baby is!"
After speaking, he also took out a bank card and handed it to the staff.
Although the little guy didn't understand what the two men meant, he roughly understood that they were going to steal his stone, and immediately shouted: "No, no, that stone belongs to Tangtang!"
The staff member looked embarrassed and said to the pudgy man: "I'm sorry, sir, this stone has been chosen by this lady."
Because there were too many people at the scene, after the staff finished speaking, the short and fat man saw Lin Momo. A look of surprise appeared on his face, and then his eyes revealed uncontrollable greed and desire.
Although the woman next to him was somewhat pretty, compared to Lin Momo, she was just careless and not worth mentioning.
Wiping the saliva from the corner of his mouth, he shook off the woman next to him, took two steps forward and said to Lin Momo: "Miss, please introduce yourself. I am Li Wangcai. I have companies in Myanmar and China, and my family has a lot of assets."
100 million.
As long as the young lady is willing, you can have a meal and drink with me tonight, and how about this stone as a meeting gift from me?"
Lin Momo glanced at him and said with disgust: "No need!"
After saying that, she handed the bank card to the staff again, "I want this stone, please pay!"
