Chapter 49 – Gambling on Stones
Next to the booths selling rough materials, there were also several large and small cutting and polishing machines that were supposed to be used by customers who wanted to solve the stones on site.
Tang Han approached a middle-aged man squatting on the floor looking at the stones, and after looking at him for a while, the boss, who was sitting at the only square table in this wool booth, called out to him, “Little brother, you are new to the business, right? Come, take a look at the performance of these stones.”
Tang Han walked over and sat down on a chair and asked, “Boss, how can you tell I’m new?”
The jadeite merchant looks no older than Tang Han, smiled and said: “Play this line, pay attention to a first come first served, others are looking at the wool, others are not allowed to intervene, only others look at the end or do not want, another person can go to check.
I can’t tell when you’re squeezing in next to someone else as soon as you arrive.”
Tang Han is a little embarrassed, spoke out to explain: “I’m not in this business, I heard there are jade stones here, specially come to see, if there is any offense, you bear with me.”
The young boss said, “It’s okay, my name is Zhang Peng, you can turn to my stall, it is also considered fate, let’s make friends.”
“Tang Han,” Tang Han shook hands with Zhang Peng, and then the two talked.
Tang Han asked, “Are these wool materials still good or bad? How can I tell if the wool on the shelf is better than the wool on the floor?”
Tang Han will not pretend to understand, rare to meet a boss of about the same age as himself, and more talkative, naturally the heart of the question asked out.
Zhang Peng began to Tang Han the white popular stone general knowledge, he said: “There is no instrument in the world can see through to the inside of the jadeite stone, so a piece of wool inside whether there is jadeite, jadeite grade how, no one dare to pack a ticket.
So the purchase of wool is also called gambling stones, gambling stones are divided into two kinds, there are half gambling and full gambling difference.
Half gambling is to cut a piece of wool, which is called open window, so that the wool inside the green to reveal, as long as the green, it proves that the stone has jade inside, you can judge the stone according to the green revealed jade seed color, so the gambling method, called half gambling.”
Zhang Peng said, while holding over a basketball-sized oval piece of wool, pointing to the side of the cut and said: “I’m not sure if I’m going to be able to do this:
“This is the semi-gambling wool. Look, this cut has come out green, and the water kind is good, general jadeite wool, the closer to the heart of the stone, the better the jadeite seed color.
Of course, there are many exceptions, this piece of wool is not allowed to say that the inside will come out of the glass seed, but also may be a shit ground, but there is jadeite inside this point is certain.
That’s why it’s a semi-gambling, is to bet on the grade seed color and shape size of the jade inside.”
“Brother Zhang, how much is your piece of wool, then, worth?” Tang Han asked.
He opened his celestial eyes, and the original stone that Zhang Peng just said was not permeable to any instrument was completely transparent to his eyes.
He looked through the wool in Zhang Peng’s hand, this piece of wool in addition to the rubbing edge there is about an inch or so of green, all white inside, there is no jadeite at all, not to mention the glass species, not even a shit ground.
Zhang Peng touched the stone and said, “The performance of this piece of material is good, look at the direction of the pine flower, if the jade inside, the worst should also be ice, out of a dozen rings or three or five bracelets no problem, I priced it at five million.”
Han Tang said in his heart that this thing is still five million, five million is not worth, it seems that the gambling of stones is too big, it is really a knife heaven, a knife hell.
Zhang Peng put this piece of semi-gambling wool back on the shelf, pointing to the shelf next to a pile of black stones on the ground, said: “These are the full gambling wool, the price is much lower than the semi-gambling wool, but whether it can produce jade, it all depends on the buyer’s eyesight and luck.
Of course, full gambling wool also depends on the quality, some python pattern pine flower very good performance of full gambling wool, the price is not much lower than half gambling, or even higher. How about it? Do you want to try your hand at it?
Tang Han shook his head, he had already looked at all the stones in Zhang Peng’s stall, and although there were occasionally a few that came out green, none of them were of particularly good quality.
He was just about to leave to check out another stall when he suddenly saw Jin Yang walking over with an appraiser and a team of bodyguards.
Jin Yang was stunned when he saw Tang Han, and then said with a sneer on his face, “Yo, this society is really messed up now, even poor people dare to come to play gambling stones. Is this something you can afford to play? Are you going to sell your waist or your ass? If I sell my ass, I have a few friends who are very rare, so I can help you get in touch with them.”
Tang Han frowned, how can I meet this piece of shit everywhere I go.
Jin Yang saw Tang Han did not pay attention to him, and said to Zhang Peng: “Little boss, some people have no money in their pockets, come here to fool around, you can be careful, do not lose things.”
Zhang Peng saw that Jin Yang had conflicts with Tang Han, laughed: “We are in business, all visitors are guests, peace and prosperity, peace and prosperity.”
Han Tang can’t help but heart fire, last night to find two women to harm themselves, if not Ding Jiuniang now may have been full of sexy photos. Now the ghosts come to disgust themselves, do not let you break some money really sorry for you.
“Who said I can’t afford it, I’m going to buy it for you.” Han Han put on a very angry look and said to Zhang Peng, “Brother Zhang, I’ve got my eye on that stone, sell it to me cheap.”
Tang Han pointed to the semi-gambling stone that he had just seen and said.
Zhang Peng said with difficulty: “Tang, I told you the reserve price because I saw that you did not buy it, this stone at least five million, usually sell six or seven million, really can not be cheaper.”
“Two million, I’ll take it.” Tang Han said.
“Five million, really low can’t be less.” Zhang Peng said.
Tang Han came up to Zhang Peng and whispered, “Brother, give a face, buddy only two million, just sell it to me.”
He kept his voice small and just enough to be heard by Jin Yang.
As expected, Jin Yang heard a burst of unrestrained laughter, “Your two friends are not good, just give you two million ah, too not enough.”
He looked at Tang Han’s extremely ordinary clothes, definitely not rich, so he thought Tang Han’s money was all given by Shen Jinling and Qin Xiufeng.
Tang Han said angrily, “It’s up to you, as if you are generous.”
Jin Yang said: “I Jin Shao is generous, look at you a big man to buy a piece of stone grinding, no money still pretend what to pretend? It’s said that I love to pretend, but I have the strength to pretend. 5 million is nothing in my eyes.”
He also said to Zhang Peng: “Little boss, bring that stone to me to see, you do business to be able to see people, like his kind of poor people, what is the use of giving him to see, pants sold can not afford to buy.”
