Chapter 3 Stone Gambling

"Sister Yu'er, you are very beautiful." You Yang looked at her for a while and felt that it was not good to stare at others like this all the time. In order to avoid making the atmosphere awkward, she praised her from the bottom of her heart.

Wang Yu, who was cherishing the feelings of his little girl, felt a sense of sweetness in his heart when he heard You Yang's praise. However, the road was too short, and the two of them would go their separate ways in a while. I don't know if they want to meet again next time.

When, maybe we will never see it again in our lifetime...

"By the way, where are you going soon?"

Standing on the roadside, the two asked in unison, and then looked at each other in a tacit understanding.

After hearing each other's question, You Yang and Wang Yu were stunned for a moment, and then chuckled at the same time. At this time, a faint feeling filled the air between them.

Looking at the pink-faced Wang Yu, a faint smile appeared on You Yang's lips. He didn't want to talk about his own affairs to a stranger, but just smiled and replied, "I have nothing to do, so I just came out for a walk.

And you?"

Wang Yu said "Oh," although it was a little strange, but he did not continue to ask. After hearing You Yang's question, he seemed to have thought of something, "By the way, I almost forgot about the business."

After patting his little head, Wang Yu quickly opened his bag and took out a fist-sized stone, wrapped in a thick layer of stone skin.

Seeing the stone in Wang Yu's hand, You Yang's pupils emitted a strange light, and then asked, "Sister Yu'er, is this black thing jade, right?"

"Ah, how do you know?" Wang Yu glanced at You Yang in surprise and asked, "Do you know how to play stone betting?"

"I don't play, but I know a little bit about it." You Yang said with a smile. In fact, he had seen many treasures in the mountains with his master. He knew that such stones were jade at a glance.

"Well... that's just right. You Yang, if you have nothing to do, accompany me to Stone Gambling Street. When I choose a few good stones, I'll treat you to dinner. How about it!" Wang Yu blinked his big eyes and asked, although he was asking,

But his tone left no room for refutation.

You Yang wiped his forehead. Although there was no cold sweat flowing down, he was still very scared. He thought to himself, this is not a question. His tone was clearly forcing me to go... After thinking for a moment, he agreed, "Okay."

Well, I have nothing to do anyway, so I will accompany you to take a look."

Wang Yu smiled, and without being polite to You Yang, took his hand and left.

In fact, Wang Yu also has selfish motives. After all, a woman carries precious jade on her body, and people in Beishi Street are very discerning. If a few thieves appear, she will not be able to deal with it as a girl. So she ropes in You Yang and asks him to

Have a meal, be a bodyguard for yourself, and by the way, get along with him for a while. I have to say, Wang Yu is quite smart.

Half an hour later, the two went to the largest multi-jewel jade city in Donghai City, which has the most complete variety of raw stones in Donghai City.

All kinds of stone betting enthusiasts look for valuable rough stones everywhere, auction them off, and take them to the cutting shop for window cleaning and appraisal. If successful, a good jade stone can be sold for hundreds of thousands or millions. It is not a problem. The bad thing is

A piece of rotten stone is worthless.

After arriving at the place, the two found a cutting shop. Wang Yu took out the raw jade in his backpack and shouted to the owner of the shop: "Master, are you free? Help me take a look at this stone."

"When you are free, you are free."

The owner of the shop was a middle-aged man in his forties. When he saw the jade in Wang Yu's hand, he took it over, looked at it and said, "Girl, gambling on jade means that one knife will make you poor, one knife will make you rich, and one knife will pierce linen.

It’s hard even for an immortal to cut through an inch of jade. Let’s see what kind of jade material you can cut out of this rough stone today.”

Wang Yu nodded and looked at his original stone, his eyes full of expectation.

She bought this rough stone from a friend and spent more than a thousand yuan. She came here today to test whether the rough stone she bought contained jade.

Seeing Wang Yu's nervous look, You Yang pondered for a moment, turned his head, locked his eyes on the jade stone, and felt it carefully. The entire inside of the stone was actually red and full of aura.

Looking away, You Yang smiled at Wang Yu and said, "Sister Yu'er, you made a profit. If I guess this rough stone is correct, it should be chicken blood jade. It's all red inside, so it should be worth a lot of money."

"How do you know?" Wang Yu asked, looking at You Yang, his eyes full of suspicion.

"That's right, young man. I have been cutting jade here for more than 20 years, and I also know a bit about jade gambling. The rough stone this girl gave me has a rough skin and thick flesh, and it is difficult to see clearly what's inside even if I shine it with a strong light.

The situation. Moreover, this rough stone is only the size of a fist, and it is difficult to predict what kind of jade it can be cut into. It is too early for you to draw conclusions now." The master explained while holding a cigarette in his mouth.

No wonder, he has been in the jade cutting business for more than 20 years, and he still knows some basic common sense. It can be said that there are not many people in the country who can judge rough stones just by their eyes like You Yang.

You Yang did not refute, but smiled and said, "Master, we are not going to argue. You can take a look at it first, and you will make your own conclusion later!"

The boss hummed, without saying much, put the stone on the cutting machine, turned on the power, and the gears made a "Z" sound and started rolling rapidly.

Wang Yu stared at the jade with her eyes wide open, holding her bag tightly with both hands. It could be seen that she was still very nervous inside.

Watching the cutting machine slowly cut, and when the gears rubbed against the raw stone, they made a harsh sound, "Zi, Zi", and Wang Yu's heart jumped.

One minute later.

When the original stone was wiped out of a window, everyone watching was silent for a moment...

"Oh my god, it's really chicken blood jade!"

When the jade material inside the original stone was revealed, Wang Yu couldn't help but exclaimed.

You Yang smiled. There was no surprise at all. According to the market price, it would not be a problem to buy this piece of jade for hundreds of thousands.

After being surprised, Wang Yu jumped up excitedly, not hiding his inner joy at all. He grabbed You Yang's arm and said excitedly, "You Yang, you really guessed it right. It's absolutely right. I love you so much, haha."

…It’s been saved…”

After the master wiped the jade out of a window, he also looked shocked. He glanced at You Yang strangely, "Young man, I really made you guess, but you can guess one, but you may not be able to guess two. I'll tell you

You bet, if you have the ability, you can buy a piece of rough stone and then cut it here. If you get it right, I won’t give up the crafting fee and ask someone to carve this piece of chicken blood jade for you."

"Is this true?" You Yang asked.

"Seriously!" The boss patted his chest. "I, Wang Laoba, have been living on Stone Street for twenty years, and all the neighbors know who I am. Now go pick a stone, and I will give you a thousand yuan, and then take my

Come and cut it. If you win, I will give it to you. If you don’t win, you can pay me back a thousand yuan. How about it? Do you dare to bet?"

In fact, the boss’ original intention was to see if You Yang could guess at jade.

There are high and low levels of rough stone. A good rough stone costs hundreds of thousands or even millions to buy. Spending a thousand yuan like this to pick out a rough stone that is almost impossible to contain jade is like looking for a needle in a haystack. The cheaper it is.

The original jade has no jade inside it. Of course, everything is subject to exception.

"It's a bet." You Yang had already peeked into the boss's heart and said with an imperceptible smile on his lips.

But Wang Yu beside him didn't think so. He gently pulled You Yang's sleeve and whispered, "You Yang, stop gambling. How about I treat you to dinner?"

"Don't worry, I'm sure." A confident smile appeared on You Yang's lips, he turned to look at the boss and said, "Uncle, bring the money, I'll be back in ten minutes."

The boss was stunned for a moment. He originally thought that You Yang would not agree. After all, even gods, let alone human beings, cannot do this with their naked eyes.

Of course, this is just a metaphor. Anyone in China who can judge rough stones with the naked eye is not a long-standing professional in this industry.

But even for such professionals, they are only less than 30% sure. For someone like You Yang, who dares to say such things even though he is young, he is obviously regarded as a fool by Wang Laoba, but since he agreed, he

Naturally, I will not break my promise.

After lighting a cigarette, Wang Laoba took out a thousand yuan bill from his pocket and handed it over, "Young man, take this money first. I'll wait for you here. Your girlfriend will stay here. If you run away, I will

There is no place to look for."

"Girlfriend?" You Yang was speechless for a while, and did not explain to the boss. He smiled, "Uncle, let's do this. I'm not going anywhere. There are several stone shops next door to you, so I'll take a look from next door.

If you choose, I will come."

The boss nodded and agreed. You Yang didn't talk nonsense. He took Wang Yu to the next door, walked to the counter, and looked at the raw jade stones placed inside. You Yang's eyes emitted a strange red light, and they flashed a little.

When you see something bad, you just shake your head and walk away.

Wang Yu looked at him with curiosity, his previous worry turned into curiosity now.

When You Yang saw a rough stone the size of a cantaloupe, he was shocked. The stone was not small, and the outer shell looked ordinary, but it contained an orange-sized jadeite inside.

Immediately, You Yang concluded that this was a piece of ice jade, the inside of which was like ice, and it should be worth a lot of money. Although he did not understand the market, based on the current market, this was indeed a good piece of jade.

Just when You Yang stopped to look at the rough stone, Wang Yu also saw it. She followed his gaze and observed it intently, but no matter how she saw it, it was just an ordinary rough stone, and it had no characteristics at all.

"You Yang." Wang Yu gently pulled his sleeves and asked with his big eyes blinking, "How do you like this piece of raw jade? Do you see what it's like?"

Hearing the sound, You Yang curled up his lips, glanced at the customers in the store, and whispered to Wang Yu, "This is a piece of ice-type imperial jade. Remove the skin and it's about the size of an orange. Do you know how much it can sell for?"

?”

consternation!

Wang Yu was stunned for a moment. It’s an ice-type imperial jade! It’s the size of an orange! If it’s processed into jewelry, it’s worth one million!
