After Li taught Ouyang Jing a lesson, he finally had a good sleep. The next morning, when He Xiaonan called, Li finally woke up.
"Brother Qiang, I have a lot of classes today. I'll go to class first and then I'll have dinner with you at noon."
"No, Xiao Nan, you can go to class in peace. I have to go to Mount Paektu and won't be back until tonight, so you don't have to wait for me at noon. Let's have dinner together in the evening."
Li Xiangqian hung up the phone, put on the newly bought clothes, held the gift he bought in the supermarket yesterday, wrapped the half of the bracelet his mother gave him in a box and put it in his pocket, and left the Tianmen Hotel directly.
He hailed a taxi and went directly to the Paektu Mountain Residence.
Baitoushan Mansion is located at the foothills of Baitoushan Mountain in the south of Tianzhou City. It is surrounded by mountains and lakes and is a place where many local rich and famous people in Tianzhou gather.
Because there are a large number of wealthy people gathered there, security is very tight.
It is impossible to enter without a pass or without passing by the wealthy owner inside to say hello.
Li Xiangqian carried his things and arrived in front of the Paektusan Residence covered in dust. Before he could explain the situation, he was expelled by the security guard standing guard at the door.
Why.
Because Li Xiangqian was not the owner, he did not have a pass, and no owner had explained it in advance, so a young man named Li Xiangqian came over.
If he fails to meet both requirements, he will be expelled ruthlessly by the security guards.
As a security guard at the Paektusan Residence, my monthly salary alone reaches eight to nine thousand in one month, not including other small-scale benefits.
So in order to ensure that this job is not lost, the security guards here really go to great lengths to protect themselves.
Generally speaking, as long as people approach without reason, they will be expelled immediately.
Li Xiangxiang was dressed in ordinary clothes, did not have a pass, and the person he wanted to see was the gambling king Huang Wenjin, so he was driven away by the security guards without saying a word.
Li Xiangqian really didn't expect that when he first arrived in Tianzhou, before he could get a firm foothold, he would be chased away, and he really felt inexplicably unhappy in his heart.
But there is nothing we can do, the situation is serious.
He couldn't break into the Paektusan Mansion with just a pair of fists. After all, he was here to represent the entire Li family.
Although the Li family was in decline, Huang Wenjin was his father's subordinate brother and Shibo lived here, so it was hard for him to make things so embarrassing.
So Li Xiangqian didn't delay any more. He took the gift he bought for the Huang family, packed up the half bracelet, and left directly, planning to find a way to come in tomorrow.
When going down the mountain, he turned around silently and looked from a distance. Bailong Mountain, shaded by the scorching sun, was majestic. It was surrounded by trees and surrounded by mountains and rivers. It was really a place where tigers and dragons were entrenched.
However, the people in this place are too cold, and he really doesn't feel comfortable. He can't find any warm feeling here now.
Majiatun is still more comfortable.
Once the things assigned by his mother are solved, he will never come to this place again.
Li Xiangqian quickly walked out of Paektu Mountain. Because he was holding the gift box he bought for the Huang family in his hand and the half of the jade bracelet in his pocket, Li Xiangqian had some difficulty in moving.
Seeing that there was still some time before noon, he took the bus back to the hotel first.
I put my things away, sat on the sofa in the room and rested for a while, then came out alone.
He originally wanted to go find He Xiaonan, but he was afraid of delaying He Xiaonan's studies, so he didn't bother her, and instead walked aimlessly on the street alone.
He had to think of a way to successfully meet Huang Wenjin.
As he was thinking about it and walking, Li Xiangqian suddenly felt a little hungry. He looked at his watch and saw that it was almost noon.
He was going to have some food first, then fill his stomach before rushing back to the hotel.
Today Tianzhou can be regarded as the first city in the entire south of China, and it is also a gathering place where various cultures blend.
The men and women, old and young, all wore more fashionable clothes, especially the beautiful women in all kinds of beautiful clothes, with their white thighs exposed, which really made Li Xiangqian blush a little shyly.
He immediately found a restaurant, went in, ordered a bowl of fried rice, and ate it.
As a result, while eating, I heard two middle-aged people at the next table discussing with each other, saying that they spent 800 yuan on a good piece of material at the Jade Stone City on Baocui Street. The shop owner said it was from Laochangkou.
Li looked forward and saw that this man had been deceived. It was not material from Laochangkou at all, but waste material from Xinchang with no distinction between skin and flesh.
Thinking of the raw jade stone, Li Xiangqian suddenly remembered that Yao Xuewei seemed to have said yesterday that Tianzhou seemed to be holding some kind of jade exchange meeting in the past two days.
At that time, Yao Xuewei also said that she would pay him 100,000 yuan and wanted to take up two days of his time to come to Tianzhou to visit him.
But he didn't agree.
Now he happened to be in Tianzhou, and he had nothing to do in the afternoon, so he wanted to go and have a look at the quality of the jadeite stones in Tianzhou.
After quickly finishing a plate of egg-fried rice, he rested in the store for a while. Then, while he was resting in the store, he used his mobile phone to search for the specific location of the Jadeite Market on Baocui Street, and Li Xiangqian set off alone.
After taking two buses, at around two o'clock in the afternoon, Li Xiangqian arrived at the Baocui Street Jade Raw Stone Trading Market that he had just heard about.
Without further ado, seeing that the time was right and there were already many people in the market, Li Xiangqian followed him directly.
There are so many people selling jadeite materials here. Some of them are in large-scale stores, and some are sold under sheds with awnings. Some even put a piece of cloth directly on the ground, put stones on them and started selling.
Li Xiangqian followed the flow of people and quickly saw that a lot of people seemed to have gathered not far ahead. Needless to say, someone must be betting on stones.
Li Qianqian walked directly over and saw a young man squatting on the ground, holding a strong flashlight and a kettle, concentrating on observing a piece of jade material in a formal manner.
Judging from the young man's appearance, he must be a knowledgeable expert!
As a result, Li Qianqian stood and listened for a while before realizing that this guy had lost three pieces of material in a row.
This is the fourth piece.
And the three consecutive pieces of money he lost in gambling had already cost him nearly one million.
But this young man didn't even blink.
Hearing this, Li Xiangqian couldn't help but frowned.
Small gambling is pleasant, but big gambling is harmful to the body.
This kid is not very young, but I didn't expect that he is quite addicted to gambling.
Li looked forward at the man in front of him, and then immediately shifted his gaze to the piece of material that the boy in front of him was about to bet on.
This is a piece of moxisha yellow sand leather material, about six kilograms, with a pine-flower color all over. It looks good under the light, and the window has been opened.
It's just that this material doesn't have large windows, but rogue windows that look like fish scales.
