Qin Shuran frowned. She didn't expect that Chen Fan was still joking with her at this time.
Although this stone gambling relies on luck, everyone knows that the experience of this stone gambling is more important than luck.
This is Chen Fan's second time entering the jade market. The last time he bought it was a piece of scrap. He didn't even know what a rough stone would be, so how could he have any experience?
If Chen Fan and Xu Yao were gambling on stones now, Chen Fan would definitely lose.
"It's been a long time since I've met a kid like you who doesn't overestimate his capabilities. However, someone wanted to pay for me, so I reluctantly accepted it." Xu Yaolin's mouth curled up with a smile on his face.
Chen Fan was too lazy to say anything and asked, "Tell me, how to bet?"
Hearing Chen Fan's words, Xu Yaolin and others suddenly laughed again: "Boy, you don't even know the rules of stone gambling, do you?"
Chen Fan frowned slightly. This was his second time at the jade market. How could he know the rules of stone gambling?
Qin Shuran explained to Chen Fan in a low voice: "What he calls stone gambling, also called gambling, is that one person picks a rough stone and cuts it to see who has a higher value. Whoever wins, the loser has to pay not only the winner's price for buying the rough stone, but also the winner."
The fee will be paid to the winner, and the amount equivalent to the value of the jade cut will be paid to the winner.”
"Boy, it seems you don't know as much as a woman." Xu Yaolin joked.
Then he said: "Since both of us are interested in the same rough stone from this stall, we will bet on stones at this stall and add an additional bet. Whoever wins will get the rough stone."
Chen Fan had no objection: "Okay, I agree."
Seeing Chen Fan agreeing, the corner of Xu Yaolin's mouth curled up: "Boy, you go first, lest others say that I, a jade master, bully a primary school student."
Chen Fan came to the stall and glanced at the rough stones placed on the stall in front of him.
"This kid didn't even bring a flashlight to light up, but he went to pick rocks. It made me laugh to death!"
"It seems that this kid already knew he was going to lose, so he just gave up resisting. Now he's just showing off."
"Why do you think he is bothering? Isn't he seeking death by betting against the Jade Master?"
"This is a rough stone that can get stuck. If Master Xu cuts out a piece of imperial green later, I'm afraid that kid's pants will have to be wiped out."
The crowd of onlookers kept whispering, and no one at the scene thought Chen Fan could win.
Chen Fan held his breath and observed the stones on the stall, frowning slightly. Except for the good piece of jade he just took a fancy to, most of them didn't even have a piece of jade in them. Even if there were jade, the inside was just like what Qin Shuran said.
Almost all are cracks.
"Boy, hurry up, don't waste our time, we are waiting to see Master Xu perform!" the middle-aged boss urged with disdain.
Chen Fan glanced at the other party, but just when Chen Fan withdrew his gaze and planned to look for the most valuable rough stone on the stall, he was attracted by the square piece of two basketball-sized rough stones that the middle-aged boss sat under his butt.
caught Chen Fan's gaze.
"Is this stone yours too?" Chen Fan asked, pointing to the original stone next to the middle-aged boss.
"It's mine, what's wrong?" the middle-aged boss asked.
"I want this stone." Chen Fan responded.
"Pfft!" The middle-aged boss couldn't hold it back and burst out laughing.
Everyone else also looked at the rough stone that Chen Fan pointed to, and suddenly there was a burst of laughter.
"That boy actually wanted to buy that stone. It almost made me laugh."
"I don't think he understands what gambling on stones is. If this kind of stone can be cut into pieces worth more than five thousand yuan, I will give him one hundred thousand!"
"The stone that gets stuck has a thin shell, and some rough stones have natural window openings, but the jadeite exposed on this rough stone is black. This kind of black jadeite is not valuable at all in the market. If the inside is broken, then
I'm afraid this rough stone will be passed on to others and they won't want it."
Many people around him sarcastically said that they felt that Chen Fan's rough stone would not be able to cut any good jadeite.
"Boy, if you are sure you want this rough stone, you can't regret it if you are sure." The middle-aged boss confirmed again, with a sarcastic look on his face.
The reason why this rough stone has been kept here as a chair is because it cannot be sold. He wanted to give it to a customer before, but the other party returned it directly and didn't even want to give it away. But what he didn't expect was
, Chen Fan unexpectedly took a fancy to his rough stone during the bet.
"How much?" Chen Fan did not explain. Although he looked very calm on the outside, he was extremely excited inside.
"I'll give you two thousand." The boss held out two fingers.
"Two thousand? This guy's boss is quite shady. He actually sells this kind of rough stone that no one wants to give away for two thousand."
The people around were talking quietly.
After the boss heard this, his face turned red and he was about to change his mind and say one thousand would be fine, but Chen Fan bought it directly: "Okay, two thousand is two thousand."
At the same time, he took out two thousand yuan from his wallet and handed it to the boss.
"Is there really something wrong with this kid's brain? He doesn't even know how to bargain?"
"I sold him something worth two thousand yuan for something that wasn't even worth five hundred yuan. Alas, he was still too young."
"This kind of kid must be allowed to suffer losses and gain knowledge. I'm afraid that after today, he will never bet on stones again in his life."
"Needless to say? This kid will definitely lose."
Seeing that Chen Fan really bought this black rough stone, everyone burst into ridicule.
"Boy, it seems that you have already given up, but don't think that I will let you go if you do this." Xu Yaolin took two steps forward to the stall and glanced at Chen Fan teasingly.
"Master Xu, please show us your skills quickly. We haven't seen you gambling on stones for a long time!"
"That's right, ignore this kid, he will definitely lose. Please choose the stone quickly."
Many people began to urge Xu Yaolin and couldn't wait to see how Xu Yaolin chose the stone. This was a valuable experience for them.
Xu Yaolin opened the folding fan, fanned it twice and said: "This rough stone that can get stuck has three characteristics. First, the skin is thin, and you can usually see the flesh color inside if you turn on the light; second, there are many cracks, and the cracks that can get stuck are the world's
It is famous, of course, which also increases his gambling nature; the third is that the skin color is mixed, just like the black stone he bought, although the skin color is different, they are all rough stones that can get stuck."
“Choose rough stones that can get stuck, and don’t buy rough stones with windows, because the chance of getting stuck is low, the skin is thin, and there are many cracks, so there is no difference between opening and closing windows, and rough stones with windows are easy to cause people to
Misjudgment, just like these types of rough stones, can be passed directly. If you want to choose, just choose these types, and you must combine the water and the cracks in the shell. The fewer cracks, the smaller the chance of internal cracks. "
Almost everyone around him looked educated and looked at Xu Yaolin gratefully, feeling that today's trip was really worth it.
Having said this, Xu Yaolin stopped in front of a rough stone, closed his folding fan confidently, and knocked on the rough stone: "Boss, I choose this rough stone."
