The rough stone was unraveled, revealing its true appearance. It was a large piece of fine jade. It was roughly estimated that the value was much higher than the selling price. I dare not say how much, but I could definitely earn a fortune from ten thousand kilograms of spiritual rice.
Many onlookers thought this result was normal. On the other hand, the buyer, the boss, did not look cheerful and seemed a little dissatisfied.
He invested 80,000 kilograms of spiritual rice and only earned 10,000 kilograms. It looked like a lot of money, but for the high-risk industry of stone gambling, it was just average. If he could earn more than half, it would be considered a successful stone gambling.
But no matter what, at least I'm making money, so let's leave it at that. Get ready to pick the next batch of rough stones.
"Boss Gu, how do you sell these cut stones?"
Among the crowd, suddenly a man with a somewhat wretched appearance and a pockmarked face came out and asked with an apologetic smile on his face.
Boss Gu glanced at the pieces of stones scattered on the ground and said casually: "Wumazi, please give me a price."
There are dozens of stones cut from the original rocks, ranging from the size of a human head to the size of a palm.
From the perspective of stone gambling, the cut stones are waste materials. However, the waste materials actually also contain a lot of jade materials, but they are relatively loosely distributed and belong to the periphery of the original stones. The fineness of the jade materials is greatly reduced, and the value is naturally relatively high.
low.
But even if it is cheap, it can still be sold for money.
There is a special type of people in the market who wait for the big players to crack the stone, then bid to buy the scraps, and then break them down a second time to make a profit.
Since recycling prices are generally relatively low, you can still make some money. If you are lucky and pick up a small leak, you will make a fortune.
Wu Mazi is such a person, he is very active in the market and many people know him.
He chuckled: "Boss Gu, how about one thousand kilograms of spiritual rice?"
Boss Gu didn't care at all and was about to nod in agreement when a voice suddenly came:
"Boss Gu, I will pay you 1,200 kilograms of spiritual rice."
Then a tall and tall man wearing a bamboo hat walked out. Judging from his voice, he must be young.
It is normal for someone to bid for waste recycling. Wu Mazi cursed in his heart: "I will pay 1,500 kilograms of spiritual rice."
"One thousand six hundred pounds."
The bidder quickly quoted a higher price.
This time, there was a lot of excitement. The crowd that was about to disperse stopped one after another.
Boss Gu crossed his arms and watched the two bids with interest. He smiled and said, "Wumazi, if you don't have a higher price, then these stones will belong to this friend."
In fact, one or two thousand kilograms of spiritual rice is just a drop in the bucket to him, and it is not enough to make a fraction of the money he loses from gambling on stones every day. But he enjoys this process and can also have fun.
Wu Mazi's expression changed, he cupped his fists and said to the mysterious person who made the bid: "I'm Wu Mazi, I'm lucky enough to have gained some respect in this market. I see you're very cool, can you make a name for yourself?"
That person is Liang Qiufeng.
He watched Boss Gu unravel the stone and get out the jade, and suddenly felt something was wrong there. After thinking about it carefully, he immediately understood: If Liu Er temporarily changed his planned plan just for such a piece of jade, he would not hesitate to use his clairvoyant powers to ask Liang Qiu
Feng would be extremely stupid to buy a piece of rough stone that is obviously beyond his financial capacity and difficult to obtain.
Before coming to the market, Liang Qiufeng had already told him that if he didn't make a profit, he would make a fortune. If he did, he would make a fortune.
What is windfall?
Investing 80,000 yuan and earning 10,000 yuan is definitely not a windfall.
Although the little guy is not very familiar with the market, with his intelligence, he would not have thought of this. Otherwise, he would not have walked around and inspected the market so carefully. According to this investment-profit ratio, the result will be
Among thousands of rough stones, you can find one at any time.
In this case, we can conclude that what Liu Er saw and what Liang Qiufeng wanted to buy was definitely not the piece of jade.
If it's not jade, where is it?
Either in the jade package; or in the cut waste.
The first possibility is relatively low, because all types of jade are repellent, and it is relatively rare for a piece of jade to contain other things.
Or in other words, even if it was really necessary to be inside, Liang Qiufeng couldn't afford it, so he could only stare.
So we can only place our hope on the second possibility.
One or two thousand kilograms of rice was not a problem for Liang Qiufeng, so he dared to bid with Wu Mazi.
At that moment, he said vaguely: "This is my first time in Yulin Town. I have never bet on stones before. Since I am short of money, I had to buy some scraps to open it."
This answer is watertight and no one will think too much about it.
Wu Mazi snorted and raised the price again: "One thousand eight hundred kilograms of spiritual rice."
Liang Qiufeng deliberately hesitated for a while, and then slowly quoted the new price: "Two thousand catties."
"you!"
Wu Mazi was so angry that she was itching her teeth with hatred, but she couldn't help it. She glanced at the waste on the ground a few times and made a quick calculation in her mind.
Boss Gu's piece of rough stone is large and heavy, and there are a lot of scraps cut from it. Some of the jade contained in it is clearly exposed. From this, it can be concluded that the jade contained in all the scraps should be worth between two thousand and two thousand.
About two thousand five kilograms of spiritual rice.
However, the cost of dissolving the stone and separating the jade fragments for the second time has to be factored in. If you calculate it this way, the price is two thousand kilograms of spiritual rice, and the profit is already very low.
Wu Mazi rolled his eyes, feeling that the other party was bidding against him and was clearly trying to lose face for him, so he had to be careful before he could express his anger, so he immediately shouted: "Two thousand three hundred catties."
He could see that Liang Qiufeng didn't understand the depth, so he showed the cost price. As long as Liang Qiufeng added more, he would definitely lose money. If he didn't add more, he didn't care. At worst, it would be a waste of money. The key is to keep it.
Save face.
Sure enough, after hesitating for a moment, Liang Qiufeng increased the weight to 2,500 kilograms.
Wu Mazi flicked his sleeves and sneered: "Idiot, I gave it to you, I won't let you die."
Some onlookers have also noticed that Liang Qiufeng is interested. He must have lost money by buying these scraps for two thousand and five thousand meters. However, in Yulin Town, there are countless novices pouring into the market all year round, and countless people have lost their money for it. They have already lost their money.
Habit.
Boss Gu laughed and said: "Deliver the spiritual rice, and the scrap will be yours."
Liang Qiufeng cupped his fists and said, "Thank you so much."
This sentence made many people laugh - a novice is a novice, and to say thank you after being cheated is so cute and silly.
Soon, Liang Qiufeng paid the spirit rice to Boss Gu and began to collect the stones, but did not inspect them on the spot. He was more cautious and kept a low profile, so he put the stones into a treasure bag and returned to the inn to start again.
deal with.
Stones were put into the bag one after another, but there were too many and it would be difficult to pack them all in a short while. Moreover, the stones were heavy and occupied a large space. If there were more stones, the treasure bag would not be able to contain them all.
When I got a stone the size of a washbasin, an accident happened.
This stone was damaged by concussion when it was cut by Boss Gu, and spider web-like cracks appeared in its structure.
Liang Qiufeng stretched out his hand and grabbed it with a little more force. The whole stone immediately fell apart, and the broken stones fell down.
Suddenly a flash of bright red appeared. Its color was so dazzling that it dazzled everyone's eyes.
