Chapter 18 Stone Gambling

The voices of the people around him were not quiet, and Zhou Zichen heard it clearly. However, Zhou Zichen felt very calm now, because his eyes could clearly see that there was something inside, a very green and thick green.

Zhou Zichen rubbed it bit by bit, removing the stones on the side, then changed his position and continued rubbing.

There were a lot of stone chips on the quick material, and it was difficult to see the specific conditions inside. However, when Zhou Zichen changed positions, everyone saw that there was green inside.

See green!

Everyone was shocked. This was just wiping, not many stone chips were wiped away. If the entire piece on Zhou Zichen's hand was made of jade and only had a layer of material wrapped around it, then Zhou Zichen would definitely have made a profit.

, the front is all of ice type, and the back is probably also of ice type.

The owner of the stone dissolving machine came over with a bucket of water: "Little brother, if you see it's green, rinse it."

Zhou Zichen doesn't understand these processes very well, and it doesn't matter whether he flushes or not. Anyway, he relies on the power of his eyes to judge, and he won't wipe off a little more.

But the boss was so enthusiastic that he let go of the cutting machine: "It's troublesome!"

"It's okay!" the boss said, flushing down some water, and the green that was only vaguely visible at first became clear immediately.

"Emperor Green!"

"The price of glass imperial green has increased!"

"Now Zhou Sheng will regret it to death. He was going to trick someone, but he sold a piece of glass-grown imperial green at a cheap price!"

"I will definitely regret it to death. Looking at it like this, it is estimated that it will be a whole piece, at least it will cost upwards of 500,000 yuan!"

"Does anyone know how much Zhou Sheng sold it to this young man?"

"It seems like one hundred thousand!"

"He sold something worth at least 500,000 yuan for 100,000 yuan. He usually deceives others, but now he is probably willing to commit suicide!"

When Zhou Sheng saw the green light, he felt like he was being pricked in his heart. He has been cheating here all year round. Although it is difficult to do it, he can still make three to five yuan a year and earn two to three hundred thousand.

But now that Zhou Zichen bought the materials from him for 100,000 yuan, he was offered jade worth maybe 500,000 yuan, which was nearly his two years' income. He really wanted to die.

Zhou Sheng really thought about getting the original stone back.

But he couldn't find a reason. Could it be that what I sold was fake, and now my conscience has discovered that I won't sell it? Wouldn't that be bullshit?

The more Zhou Zichen wiped, the more green appeared, the more excited people around him became, and the more uncomfortable Zhou Sheng felt. This was originally his, but he had "given" it away in vain.

Looking at Zhou Zichen's steady hand, he wiped out the imperial green bit by bit. Although it was not very big, half a million was already stable.

Before Zhou Zichen finished driving, someone stood up and said, "Little brother, I'll buy this piece of material for you for 300,000 yuan!"

"I'll pay three hundred and fifty thousand!"

"You two still want to trick people. I'll pay you 500,000 yuan for this piece of material. Little brother, think about it. If the back of this material is all imperial green, it only costs more than 500,000 yuan. You can feel at ease buying it now.

, if the back is completely empty, it won’t be worth half a million.”

Zhou Zichen was confident, smiled slightly, and said: "Thank you, I still want to untie them all and have a look. If you still want to buy them after they are all unzipped, you are welcome to bid!"

Seeing Zhou Zichen's determination, everyone stopped raising prices and expressed their understanding. They stood aside and waited for Zhou Zichen to continue unraveling the stone.

Zhou Zichen untied all the stones bit by bit, and a whole oval piece of imperial green glass appeared in front of everyone.

Zhou Sheng felt regretful and wanted to slap himself twice, but he didn't have the nerve to ask for the piece of jade back. He could only watch on the side, secretly regretting it in his heart.

"Bosses, if anyone wants it, you can make a price!" Zhou Zichen said.

"Bang bang bang..."

A series of firecrackers sounded. This is the rule. If someone offers a big rise, firecrackers will be set off. Zhou Zichen's offer of 100,000 for at least 500,000 jade is already a huge rise, at least in this small city.

Already rare.

The sound of firecrackers immediately attracted a large number of spectators. Everyone wanted to see who had won the bet. However, Zhou Zichen was just a new face. After some inquiring, he found out that it was Zhou Sheng who wanted to deceive people and instead gave a piece of emperor money to someone else.

Green is sold cheaply.

"Little brother, I will pay 530,000 yuan."

"Although this jadeite is small, it is of glass type. I will pay 600,000 yuan."

"Six hundred and twenty thousand!"

"Six hundred and fifty thousand!"

After hearing the bids from these people, Zhou Zichen already knew that although this jadeite was good, it was still too small, so everyone only increased the price by 20,000 to 30,000 yuan. It is estimated that the real price is about the same.

"Six hundred and eighty thousand!"

When he heard this number, Zhou Sheng, who was watching on the side, slapped himself hard. It was 680,000 yuan, but he only sold it for 100,000 yuan!

"Seven hundred thousand!" an old man shouted out the price.

The price of 700,000 yuan has not been raised for a long time. Zhou Zichen also saw that everyone was probably hesitant and it would be difficult to bid again. Even if he made another bid, it would probably not be much more.

The old man asked Zhou Zichen: "Little brother, what do you think of the price of 700,000?"

"Okay, just listen to the old gentleman!"

The old man did not hesitate: "Okay, little brother, you give me an account and I will have someone transfer money to you!"

Zhou Zichen gave his account number to the old man, and the old man called him. In less than two minutes, Zhou Zichen received a message of 700,000 yuan: "Mr., the money has been received, and the jade is for you!"

The old man took the jade, said a few polite words, and quickly left the antique market without stopping any longer.

Zhou Zichen made a profit of 600,000 yuan at once, paid him 100 yuan for the stone-breaking fee, exchanged a few polite words with the boss, and continued to visit the stone gambling industry.

The gambling here has just increased, and the gambling on the stones bought from Zhou Sheng has also increased. Many people came here with stones to break stones, hoping to get some luck. Suddenly, the business of this store was booming, and everyone lined up to wait.

Solution stone.

Zhou Zichen did not look at the solution stones, but looked around, looking at the rough stones and asking about prices, but there was no suitable one.

When we walked to the other end, there were many people gathered around the door of a stone shop. Everyone was silent, as if they were listening to something. There was no sound of machines inside, and it didn't look like someone was cutting stones.

Zhou Zichen also walked over curiously, wanting to see what was going on inside.

It only happened when I got closer, it turned out that this old man was leading a few young people to look at the rough stones.

The old man kept explaining these rough stones to the young people.

After inquiring, I found out that this old man's name was Wang Changlin. He was quite famous for gambling on stone circles in this city, and those young men were also his students.

Everyone takes this opportunity to listen more to the master.

Zhou Zichen also squeezed to the front curiously and listened carefully to Wang Changlin's explanation.

Wang Changlin took a piece of raw material and said: "This kind is called potato skin. The potato skin is thin and the surface is slightly yellow. Most of this raw material is produced in Damokan."

"Look, this kind of material has little chance of going up, because merchants charge high prices."

After seeing the raw materials of potato skins, Wang Changlin became angry again: "This is called ringworm. Generally speaking, raw stones with ringworm tend to be colored and easy to produce jadeite, but they are also very risky."

"Look, there are gray marks here. Generally, ringworm comes in three colors: gray, light gray, and black."

“If ringworm is divided by shape, there are lumpy ringworm, dead ringworm, plaster ringworm, pulse-shaped bristle ringworm, sclero ringworm, etc., and black ringworm, white ringworm, blue ringworm, and gray ringworm that are divided by color.

wait."

"The one I have is called bristle ringworm. Normally, this kind of ringworm will pierce into the flesh of jadeite, and the jadeite inside will be riddled with holes. Nine and a half out of ten will lose the bet, of course.

, in this business of betting on stones, there is no absolute, even if it performs very well, it is still possible to bet on odds, and even if it does not perform well, it can also rise sharply."

"But for bristle ringworm, it's better to have less exposure to it. It's almost impossible for it to spread."

Zhou Zichen looked curiously at the piece of material in the old man's hand. It probably weighed ten to twenty kilograms. There were many spots on the outside, it didn't look very flat, and there were also gray particles on the surface.

But through the supernatural eyes, one can see that there is a layer of green inside, which is a whole piece of green.

The inside has not been damaged by the ringworm outside.

After Wang Changlin read it, he picked out two inexpensive items from this store, and then continued to the next store.

Zhou Zichen did not follow him to the next store. Instead, he walked to the store that Wang Changlin had just visited. He picked up the piece of material that Wang Changlin was not optimistic about. After looking at it for a long time, he was absolutely sure that there was definitely something good in this piece.

Jadeite, and not damaged at all.

Seeing Zhou Zichen looking at this piece of material for a long time, the store owner asked tentatively: "Little brother, do you like it?"

The store owner is also a little worried. This piece of material has just been reviewed by Master Wang Changlin and is almost at a loss. The store owner is still thinking of keeping it in the warehouse for a few months and then buying it out after a few months.

Zhou Zichen asked casually: "How much does this piece of material cost?"

The shopkeeper thought about it for a while, and originally wanted to sell this material for 80,000 yuan, but now he just wants to sell it: "Little brother, I will give you 10,000 yuan at a loss."

This price is not a loss at all, it happens to be the purchase price of the store.

Zhou Zichen looked at it for a while and said, "Okay, I'll buy it then. Boss, please transfer the money!"

The boss took out a QR code: "Brother, just transfer ten thousand, it's not a big account."

Zhou Zichen thought about it and paid 10,000 with Alipay. When he saw that the boss had a stone dissolving machine, he asked: "Boss, can you use the stone dissolving machine?"

The stones and calcite purchased in the store are free, and they can also increase the popularity of the store.

The store owner said: "No problem, use it!"

"Let me go, he really bought that piece!"

"Someone bought the bristle ringworm that Wu Laogang said!"

"I'll go take a look!"

A small number of the people who originally followed Wang Changlin immediately gathered around. Everyone wanted to see if Master Wang Changlin was right.

Zhou Zichen first made a cut and cut off a small piece of stone skin, only to see a white, mist-like layer appearing.

"Baiwu, it's possible that the bet will go up!"

"The fog may not be able to rise, so let's wait and see!"

Wang Changlin, who had left, seemed to have heard the news and came back, watching Zhou Zichen unravel the stone.

As soon as Wang Changlin came back, everyone else followed, and a large group of people suddenly surrounded him.
