Chapter four hundred and seventy second gambling jade
The next day, Wan Yichen sent someone to send an invitation letter, with the title "Chairman of Titanium Star Group" written on it, and the end signed "Wan Junli". It seems that it was done by Sir Wan again. I wonder if there has been any progress in the matter they were following. Liu Jinpeng didn't bother to think about this matter. After Kong Shan signed it, he sent it over. He looked at the Rising Period and it turned out that it was held at 2 pm in the banquet hall of Shangri-La Hotel.
The Shangri-La Hotel in Jiangbei is located in Jiangbei, which is very far from Titanium Star headquarters, but it is a little closer to the place where you are gambling stones. After handling a little business, Liu Jinpeng remembers that he still has to go to the gambling stones market and is ready to go out early. This time he may need several followers to go to Los Angeles. Liu Jinpeng plans to choose one of the remaining two secretaries. Xiao Xue and Xiao Qiao have both gone out, so he naturally has to go back.
When asked, Kong Shan couldn't come to a conclusion. Kong Shan would never make decisions for the boss now. If you do too many things to do, it would be a taboo. So Liu Jinpeng chose Xiaobai casually. Secretary Bai was about twenty-six years old, and was the older person second only to Xiao Xue. Secretary Bai had a fair and beautiful face, and his hair was slightly curly short with earrings. He originally liked to wear earrings, but when she found out that no one was wearing jewelry here, she also took them.
Kong Shan felt that this woman was more careful and thought a lot, and she didn't have much contact with others. However, Secretary Bai worked very hard to complete the tasks assigned by Kong Shan. It was different to say whether she did it well. Her attitude was the most sufficient. Since Kong Shan did not object, Liu Jinpeng was too lazy to make trouble. As for Secretary Cai, she could only feel wronged and wait for the next time.
After leaving Titanium Star headquarters, Liu Jinpeng directly directed Eva to drive to Jiangbei Gambling Stone Market. When crossing the bridge, there was another traffic jam, which made him look forward to the tunnel crossing the river to be repaired quickly. Jiangcheng Gambling Stone Market was originally an old flower and bird market, but later the city opened a new area in Jiangtan Park on the south bank of the Yangtze River to build a new flower and bird market, so the old market was occupied by the antique market next to it.
The antique market cannot require such a large land. After occupying one-third of the original area of the flower and bird market, the remaining area is contracted to those who play in jade business in pieces. This group of people who play in jade business don’t make much money here, but if they are poor, they want to change. They are connected with the path of southern Yunnan, so they start gambling on stones.
The stone gambling business was not very good at the beginning. Jiangcheng was still a little behind the south in this regard. The main reason was that it could not accept it in terms of ideas. Betting on stones is very risky. No matter how good the veterans are, they still have times when they are slapping their eyes. Things that are optimistic that the wool cannot be cut out of the water head often happen. In addition to eyesight and experience, they also have to rely on a little luck.
After a long time, some people were lucky enough to buy 20,000 yuan for wool, and even cut out jade green jade worth more than 800,000 yuan. Newspapers reported it repeatedly, and since then, the gambling stone market has become popular. However, no one knows who the person who bought stones for 20,000 yuan is. From this point of view, this guy may be the entrusted by the gambling stone merchant.
There are 59 stalls in the gambling stone market today, the largest one covers an area of hundreds or thousands of square meters, and the smallest one is more than 200 square meters. This place is basically the front store and back warehouse. There are piles of stone wool materials piled up on the open space outside. The wool materials here are relatively poor, it is difficult to get out of water, and the price is also very cheap. You can buy one for hundreds or thousands of yuan to play.
The rooms in the shop are relatively good wool stones, and they are piled up in piles in separate places. There are different prices according to the probability of water outlets, but this is like a guide to buying a lottery, and it doesn't make much sense at all. The warehouse behind is the store's inventory, and some stones with better quality or jade quality have been exposed. These prices are even more expensive, and regular customers will not allow them to enter.
Liu Jinpeng is a rookie and doesn't understand the rules here at all. Of course, it doesn't matter if he doesn't understand, so naturally someone will give him some advice. In the old flower and bird market, such people are called tour guides, but now the flower and bird market has moved away, and their names have not been changed.
Liu Jinpeng was stopped by a group of tour guides when he entered the door, bragging about how familiar he was here. He just didn't understand, so he casually ordered a man who seemed to be in his forties. The man was timid behind him and didn't seem to dare to compete with others for guests. When everyone saw that the guest had chosen this person, they stopped talking and continued to stop other guests.
Liu Jinpeng asked, "Is your surname? How do you know that it is my first time here?"
The man smiled and said, "Your surname is not allowed to be free. As soon as you enter the door, you will look around. If the old customers go straight to the shop of an acquaintance, they will not look around."
Liu Jinpeng laughed and remembered the joke "Are you happy?". After laughing, he said, "I want to buy some wool and cut it yourself. Tell me what rules are there."
Lao Fu grinned and said, "There are not so many rules. If you choose them, you have to brag for you for a few hours. In fact, if you have money here, you are the master. As long as you pay for the stones, you will bear the good or bad. It's that simple. Winning is your ability, and you don't cheat if you lose." No wonder he is not popular here. He tells the truth and is bad at everything.
Liu Jinpeng asked curiously: "Then how much do you need to take the guests?"
Lao Fu smiled and said, "We don't take money from your customers. The Gambling Stone Market Management Office collects management fees, venue fees, and guidance fees from merchants. This guidance fee is given to us. It is calculated based on the customers we receive every month. The more you work, the more you get." Lao Fu really said anything, and never plays with Huatou. No wonder people here don't like him. They all say it so clearly, how can you show off?
Liu Jinpeng smiled. He felt that Lao Fu was quite satisfied with his appetite. He smiled and said, "Take me to bet on stones. I bet on good jade and give you a tip."
The place that Lao Fu is annoying came. He shook his head and smiled, "Every guest here says this. Every month, you can meet several people who have been gambled all over. Sometimes I have to pay for the tickets for them to go home. You are not going to make you angry, but you can enjoy your love and make a big bet and lose your family. Remember to stop at the right time."
Liu Jinpeng didn't care about his bad words and made a gesture, asking Lao Fu to lead the way. No matter how much nonsense is, it is useless. Let's take a look. Lao Fu is not pleased with his words, and there are also cooked shops in the market. Their industry is backed by the backers. There are also taps to take to take customers into the store for consumption. The more customers consume, the more they get.
When I arrived at the store that Lao Fu mentioned, the storefront looked 30 meters wide, and it was obviously a big shop with two piles of wool materials piled up at the door. After seeing Liu Jinpeng, Lao Fu quietly came over and said, "There are all leftovers here, just for people who don't know how to play with it. There is no hope of jade."
Liu Jinpeng looked at Lin Lin and Eva, and Lin Lin nodded. He said that there was at least one good one here. Liu Jinpeng looked at the stall watching man standing next to him. The man ignored him and said, "Follow the money by the texture and size of the material. You can choose it first, and I will give it my offer." This man's expression was very worthy of beating, as if he was a joke. He didn't think that the person who paid for it was your God. He was fucking with this expression.
Lao Fu wanted to persuade him again. The stallman stared at him and didn't dare to speak. Lin Lin took a piece of wool from the smaller pile, and the people watching shook their heads. Someone whispered and laughed: "The little pile has been picked twice, and this girl is really a waste of money."
No matter what others say, Lin Lin threw the wool on the table next to him. He could tell at a glance that the wool was sentenced to death by several experts. He whispered: "Nine hundred yuan, a transaction for cash."
There was no need to pay Liu Jinpeng. Eva took out a piece of money from her bag and took nine to the man. Lin Lin held the stone in one hand, not at all, and did not look very important. Old Fu shook his head repeatedly but did not dare to say anything. After entering the door, there was more wool inside. After entering the door, he had to hand over the stones he bought outside to the store for storage. When he went out, he would come back. He was afraid that the customers would have a fish-me-filled bead.
Lin Lin walked around it casually and nodded again when he came back. Liu Jinpeng was a little surprised. There were at least a pile of stones in this big house. There were at least thousands or tens of thousands of pieces of wool, but only two pieces could be seen by Lin Lin. This was simply a big wave of scrubbing sand. No wonder these merchants made a lot of money.
After asking the guy who was in charge of the scale next to him, Liu Jinpeng learned that the wool here is calculated by weight, and no matter what the appearance is, it can be seen that the things here are all so-called hope of making jade. Lao Fu dared to say a few words at this time: "It depends on the appearance, and it is not possible to measure it with instruments, so if you want to bet on stones, it is best to bring an expert, and if you don't bring anything, you will give money."
Liu Jinpeng smiled and pointed at Lin Lin and said, "This is an expert. I spent a lot of money to invite him. Don't worry, tips are indispensable."
Old Fu shook his head and said nothing. He didn't believe that Lin Lin, who had a beautiful face, was an expert. It was obvious that the rich man made a woman smile. Lin Lin got the instructions and went to pick a few pieces of wool. According to Liu Jinpeng's words, he could not pick out all the jades. It was obviously equivalent to telling others that I had cheated, and he had to carry a few poor quality and find a few pure stones with no water head.
After picking the stones, the guests will be allowed to cut them by themselves. However, usually the guests do not have any tools at home, so they cut them here. After Lin Lin finished picking, there were nine pieces of wool, which were of different sizes, and it cost a total of 260,000 yuan. A young and beautiful woman like Lin Lin also picked stones here, which attracted the attention of many people. At this moment, someone started to urge them to wipe the stones just to see the money made a fool of themselves.
Lin Lin looked at Liu Jinpeng. She didn't know if she wanted to wipe the stones here. Liu Jinpeng had no intention of showing off, but many people around him made fun of him, so he just made fun of them. He wiped the first piece first, wiped one-third of it but didn't have anything. The onlookers burst into laughter. Lao Fu suggested a knife in the middle, but there was still nothing after the knife was cut. Now there were more people watching, and they were all gloating.
The first piece was scrapped, and it was thrown aside to pile up waste. The second piece was wiped by one-third but it was still not. The crowd of people who were gloating laughed. Lao Fu couldn't bear to look at it anymore, and didn't even mention the suggestions. Liu Jinpeng saw that the setback was almost done, so he made a look. Lin Lin cut three-quarters of the place, and it turned green after one slash.
At this moment, the people watching the fun were like ducks strangled, and the laughter was cut in half, and the scene was silent. Then someone shouted: "It's green! What a water head, it's the bottom of the ice!" Someone muttered: "Made, luck." Fortunately, this jade looks too small, worth about 200,000 yuan, which is not too exciting.
The excitement came soon, and the third part was directly scrapped, but no one laughed this time, and the second part was made back. It was much better than the onlookers who lost money, so just laugh. (To be continued...)
