Chapter 067: Betting on Stones
Chapter 067 Gambling on Stones
Qinglan Middle School, as a first-class middle school in Nancheng, does not require students to make up classes even if they are in their third year of high school.
However, there are also many students who attach great importance to the college entrance examination next year. Maybe if they work harder, they can be admitted to the university of their dreams. To meet the needs of these students, the school has specially set up a cram school. Whether to participate in winter vacation cram school is voluntary.
.
Zhou Jinbai, the monitor of Class 31, also participated in the cram school. According to his grades, it is not difficult to be admitted to an ordinary prestigious university, but he hopes to be admitted to a first-class prestigious university. More importantly, Tian Mengqian also participated in this cram school.
After finishing the tutoring, Tian Mengqian turned on her phone and waited for a long time, but did not wait for the notification sound of the text message. There was a hint of disappointment on her beautiful face.
"Qianqian, I'll take you back." Zhou Jinbai said diligently.
Tian Mengqian ignored Zhou Jinbai, packed her schoolbag and left the classroom.
Zhou Jinbai thought that this was Tian Mengqian's acquiescence to him sending her home, so he hurriedly picked up his schoolbag and followed Tian Mengqian.
"Qianqian..."
"You should call me Tian Mengqian!" Tian Mengqian frowned lightly.
"Haha, the name is just a title, and there is no one else here." Zhou Jinbai adjusted the glasses on the bridge of his nose and said calmly, "Qianqian, I hope you can believe me. My feelings for you are true, and so do you.
You know, there are so many girls who like me, so it would be easy for me to just find someone to be my girlfriend, but none of them are my type."
"I don't want to talk before the college entrance examination." Tian Mengqian looked a little dazed.
According to Tian Mengqian's results, there is no problem in getting admitted to any school in the country. She does not need tutoring at all. It was just because of Lin Feng's incident that she often lost her mind during this period and her academic performance also declined, so she joined the tutoring class.
The agreement between Lin Feng and Tian Guoliang was still fresh in Tian Mengqian's memory. Lin Feng had promised Tian Guoliang that he would be admitted to the same university as Tian Mengqian.
In fact, Tian Mengqian didn't really care whether Lin Feng could be admitted to the same university as Tian Mengqian. What she cared about was Lin Feng.
Even if Lin Feng fails in the college entrance examination, if you don't leave me, you will never give up!
Girls in love are fools, but they are more sensitive than usual.
Lin Feng got full marks in exams one after another, and Lin Feng's performance in the Taekwondo club of the technical school made Tian Mengqian feel that Lin Feng had changed and became mysterious and unpredictable.
The results of the national mathematics competition for senior high school students have also come out. Four students from Qinglan Middle School won the prize, and the only first prize was Lin Feng.
Tian Mengqian felt that Lin Feng got full marks in the exam. There was no reason, it was just an intuition.
This made her feel that Lin Feng was getting farther and farther away from her.
It has been more than three months since Lin Feng left. Except for calling Tian Mengqian to explain some matters on the day he left, he has never called Tian Mengqian or sent any text messages since then. Tian Mengqian was wondering if Lin Feng had abandoned herself.
In the back of my mind.
"Qianqian, although my grades are not particularly good, it is not a problem to get admitted to an ordinary prestigious university. I am used to being lazy. If it were before, I would never come here for tutoring. Don't you understand my feelings?
"??" Zhou Jinbai is already an expert in flowering, and these words are full of romance.
"I want to be alone for a while."
"Okay, I disappear!"
Zhou Jinbai is well versed in the ways of flowers and knows that haste makes waste when dealing with an innocent and traditional little girl like Tian Mengqian. Slow work is the best way to deal with it. Instead of sending Tian Mengqian home, Zhou Jinbai left looking very hurt.
When Tian Mengqian returned home, she happened to see Lin Jingye and Yang Huiru. The couple bought a lot of goods and were very happy.
Tian Mengqian's heart suddenly tightened.
She often met Lin Jingye and his wife on weekdays, but no matter how hard they tried to smile, there was a deep sadness in their eyebrows. But today, Lin Jingye and his wife were really smiling, and Lin Jingye was even humming.
What kind of Peking Opera jokes are there?
Intuition told Tian Mengqian that Lin Jingye and his wife had news about Lin Feng.
"Hello, uncle and aunt." Tian Mengqian greeted obediently.
Lin Jingye nodded and smiled.
Yang Huiru looked behind Tian Mengqian and said: "Qianqian, who is that four-eyed man who often sends you back? I think he has no good intentions!"
"He is a classmate of Brother Xiaofeng and I."
"My classmates may not necessarily be good people!"
Lin Jingye hurriedly poked Yang Huiru with his hand.
Tian Mengqian asked: "Auntie, is Brother Xiaofeng back?"
"No, he called home. He's crazy out there! He should be back in a few days. Didn't he call you??"
"Goodbye, uncle and aunt."
Tian Mengqian did not answer Yang Huiru, but turned around and ran upstairs quickly. As soon as she turned around, two lines of tears burst out of her eyes.
At this moment, she would rather not have any news from Lin Feng.
Tengchong.
Lin Feng put down the phone, feeling a little disappointed. He just called Tian Mengqian, but the prompt showed that the phone was turned off.
As for the four eyes mentioned by his mother, Lin Feng knew it was Zhou Jinbai. He was not worried that Zhou Jinbai could threaten his position in Tian Mengqian's heart. Lin Feng knew what kind of girl Tian Mengqian was and how Tian Mengqian felt about him.
The clothes on Lin Feng were ordered by Tong Xiongtao. Although they fit well, they were not the style that Lin Feng liked.
Taking out the little money he had left, Lin Feng bought a set of clothes and stayed in a hotel.
After resting for a day, Lin Feng wanted to go looking for antique markets.
He didn't have much money left. If he didn't get some money, he would have to live in the open. Besides knowing how to identify antiques and cultural relics, Lin Feng had no other money-making skills. Therefore, he wanted to try his luck in the antique market to see if he could make money.
Able to find bargains.
However, after walking around the streets, Lin Feng didn't see a decent antique market, but there were quite a few selling jade jewelry.
Lin Feng can also identify the authenticity of jadeite, but the difficulty of identifying the authenticity of jadeite is not too high, and it is impossible to find a bargain.
Sighing, Lin Feng could only return to the hotel dejectedly.
"Two million, you take this stone away."
"This boss, I believe this stone is not worth 2 million at all, not even 200..."
"Fuck, you poor bitch, you don't just want to make a fuss, are you deliberately causing trouble?"
Not far away was a large stone market. Although it was about a hundred meters away from Lin Feng, Lin Feng was already in the late stage of the realm and his senses were much stronger. He could hear the conversations of several people very clearly.
Judging from the conversations between several people, the boss asked for 2 million yuan for a stone. A young man said that even 200 yuan was not worth it. An old man was hesitating whether to sell it. This made Lin Feng a little curious about what it was and the price difference was so huge.
big??
When he stepped forward to take a look, Lin Feng smiled.
It turns out that this is a raw jadeite market.
Lin Feng can identify the authenticity of any cultural relics and antiques, including jadeite and raw jadeite. In fact, jadeite is mined from raw jadeite.
The fat boss is the owner of the rough stone market.
A middle-aged man in rich clothes, with a thick gold chain around his neck and his hair meticulously parted in the middle, was looking at the stone.
There was also a young man in his twenties, shabbily dressed, with delicate features, and his face looked a little sallow at this moment. He was the one who advised the old man not to take action.
This rough stone is a big piece, and many onlookers are commenting on it. Most people think it is valuable, but they just talk about it and don't dare to take action.
Bet Shi Linfeng also knew it.
Unprocessed raw jadeite is called wool. In the jade trading market, wool is also called stone. The raw jadeite is wrapped in a layer of weathered skin. Generally, its true appearance cannot be seen at a glance just from the appearance. Even in the era of scientific advancement,
Today, there is no instrument that can quickly determine whether it is gemstone or waste material through this outer shell. Therefore, the risk of buying and selling is very high, and it is also very exciting.
The most profitable and tempting thing in jade trading, but also the riskiest, is gambling on stones. There is a jargon in the jewelry industry: Gambling on stones is like gambling on life. If you win the bet, you will earn ten times or a hundred times, and you will become a rich man overnight.
; If the bet fails, everything is lost.
Compared with gambling on stones, risky transactions such as stocks and real estate are all warm-hearted and pale in comparison.
The square stone the boss mentioned is about one meter in diameter, and its surface looks red and green, with many white stripes.
The man with the necklace walked around the big stone.
The down-and-out young man became anxious and said hurriedly: "Believe me, this is just a piece of rotten stone."
When the fat boss heard this, his face immediately darkened, and he said angrily: "You have to deal with it, right?? If you were an expert, you wouldn't bet your pants off."
The downcast young man's face suddenly turned pale and blue, and he was speechless.
Lin Feng looked at the young man with surprised eyes. Lin Feng didn't know how much this stone was worth, but he could tell that it was not a good thing.
There are stones everywhere in the big yard. These stones are relatively cheap. They are not very big and are sold by the ton.
The necklace man wore such a thick necklace and looked like he was very rich. Lin Feng didn't care whether he lived or died, but started looking for wool containing high-quality jadeite.
"I will open it immediately for 1.6 million!" The man with the necklace was still shouting.
Lin Feng was still a high school student, and he didn't look like a rich second generation. Although he wanted to rummage through a pile of stones, he estimated that his boss would have objections, so he could only do the next best thing and look among the woolen materials piled on the surface.
Can anything be discovered?
In a corner, Lin Feng really discovered something.
An inconspicuous piece of wool the size of a fist, but inside it is 100% high-quality jadeite. Although I don’t know how much it is worth, it is definitely valuable.
"Boss, how do you sell this?" Lin Feng picked up a stone and asked.
When the fat boss saw that Lin Feng didn't look like a rich man, he was a little impatient, but he still casually replied: "Two thousand yuan a ton."
“Can I pick a few pieces?”
"I won't sell it for a few yuan."
"I can pick out a few small stones at random, and they cost 100 yuan each. Is that okay??"
"Then hurry up." The fat boss of a small business with a few hundred yuan didn't take it seriously at all, but profit-seeking is the true nature of a businessman.
Lin Feng picked up four ordinary stones, then took away the stone with the fine jade inside, paid and left immediately.
Lin Feng is not a businessman, what he wants is to turn the stone into cash.
Not far away was a jade processing factory. After Lin Feng entered, he said he wanted to cut a few stones for processing.
"Where are the people? Come here and open it for me! If it's really good, there will be a lot of rewards." I don't know how much it cost, but the man with the necklace really bought the stone, and he also entered the store.
The processing plant looks awesome.
