Chapter 657: Water Lotus
Li Guangjun's reassurance was still very effective. Although Zhao Yun'er was unwilling, she was not as excited as she was at first.
It's just that there are two more fires in his eyes, and he can't wait to burn that man with bad intentions now to reveal his true face.
After the news was sent out, Ye Wanxi's expression darkened and she was not very happy.
Feng Tianyu immediately guessed what she was thinking: "Worried about that Miss Zhao?"
"People who are in love are easily overwhelmed by emotions and affect judgment."
This is also the reason why some people know that their relatives and friends have entrusted them with injustice, but they dare not say it out loud.
It’s fine to say that the other party is willing to listen and believe. If they don’t want to listen or believe, I’m afraid they will blame you for sowing discord.
In the end, their kindness was wrongly paid, and they were nothing but villains in vain.
Zhao Yun'er is innocent and impulsive, and Ye Wanxi is worried that she will run to her sister for a showdown when she sees her reply, which will cause the sisters to turn against each other.
"Don't worry, her boyfriend is not some stupid young man, and he won't let her suffer."
Ye Wanxi blinked, thinking of Li Guangjun's attitude, she felt a little relieved.
After the shooting of the variety show, the two didn't go back immediately, but planned to take this opportunity to go to the boutique that Mr. Du mentioned before to check out the reality.
Ye Wanxi and the two of them haven't figured out the reality of this store yet, and they can't be sure whether it will be dangerous to go there this time, so it's not easy to take Qiu Yuerong with them.
Qiu Yuerong didn't think much about it, she just thought that it was rare for the two of them to come out, and wanted to go out and enjoy the world of the two of them more, and it was inconvenient to bring her light bulb.
Immediately booked a ticket, and got out of bed.
The boutique that Mr. Du mentioned was on a commercial street not too far from the place where Ye Wanxi and the others filmed the show.
Considering Ye Wanxi's current popularity, the two made some disguises before going to ensure that they would not be recognized.
When they arrived, the two of them were thankful for their foresight, because there was a scenic spot two or three kilometers away from this commercial street. This commercial street was much more lively than expected, and it was considered crowded and noisy.
There are rows of shops on the street, some selling special snacks, and some selling souvenirs and local specialties.
It took Ye Wanxi and the two of them some time to find the boutique. It wasn’t particularly accurate to say that it was a boutique. They really sold exquisite gadgets, but most of them were beautiful ornaments carved from jade. , everything from bracelets, chains, jade pendants, and pendants.
However, it was not these exquisite objects that attracted Ye Wanxi and the two of them as soon as they met each other, but the noisy crowd next door.
Next door to the jade shop is a rough stone shop. The so-called rough stone is unprocessed natural ore.
These ores were dug out from the mine and had not been processed. Most of them were dusty, and they were no different from ordinary stones if you didn't look carefully.
At that time, at the gate next door, a large group of people gathered together, and they could still be heard shouting loudly from time to time.
Ye Wanxi was curious, she and Feng Tianyu looked at each other tacitly, and walked forward together.
Finally squeezed to the side, only to find that everyone is competing for bids around a master chef and a red-faced middle-aged man.
"Three hundred thousand."
"Three hundred and fifty thousand."
"400,000, I will pay 400,000."
Ye Wanxi looked bewildered, almost thinking that she had stumbled into some auction house by mistake.
"What is this doing?"
Standing beside Ye Wanxi was a tall and strong elder brother in his early thirties. Hearing her question, he turned his head and glanced at her and Feng Tianyu, and said loudly, "What else can you do? Jieshi!"
"Analysis?"
This eldest brother is obviously acquainted, seeing that Ye Wanxi really doesn't understand, he immediately talked to her enthusiastically: "Hey, this is our largest rough stone shop, and the ones placed in it are all rough stones. The stones picked up randomly on the roadside are similar in size, and if you are lucky, you can get emeralds from them."
"The elder brother over there came here from another province to gamble on stones.
Do you know what it means to bet on stones? "
Ye Wanxi shook her head honestly.
The tall elder brother shook his head more and more proudly: "The meaning of betting on stones is to pick a stone from that store and buy it. Then have someone untangle the stone to see if there is anything in it. If there is, it is a rare one." If you see something good, your bet is up. If you don’t have anything, it’s just an ordinary broken stone, and your bet is over.”
Ye Wanxi was silent for a moment, pointed to the uncle in the middle of the crowd, and asked curiously: "Then this uncle is like this, is the bet going up?"
"That's right, the stone that the old master unraveled now belongs to him. He just cut it and it turned green. It means that the bet has gone up, and there is something in it."
"So they all want to photograph this rock?"
"right."
"But it's just a small cut, who knows how big the stuff is? Is it too early to start bidding now?"
"It's because I don't know that I have to hurry up and call. Otherwise, when all the contents inside are unraveled, if it is a treasure, then it will not be able to buy it at this price."
"But how do they know that the inside must be full of treasures, what if the green is only the surface layer?"
"So, they're also betting."
Ye Wanxi suddenly realized that, to put it bluntly, it was a transfer of risk.
These bidders took a fancy to the value of this green stone and thought it could produce a treasure with high value, so they wanted to grab it before others.
Just as Buyer No. 1 bet that the rock had treasure in it, so these people are betting.
If the No. 1 buyer agrees to their bidding, the stone will belong to the No. 2 buyer, and the opportunity will be seized, and the risk will be transferred at the same time.
The uncle who bought the stone blushed with excitement when he heard the higher quotations from the crowd.
In the end, he did not agree to any offer from either party, but chose to continue cutting down.
The uncle discussed with the master for a long time before deciding to cut from the side of the edge of the first knife a little bit up and down.
When the knife went down, everyone was disappointed, because the bottom did not turn green as everyone expected, but a large piece of loose sand was cut out.
The uncle's originally rosy face suddenly turned pale, and the excited onlookers fell silent as if a basin of cold water had been poured on them.
"Cut and cut again, this time cut this way!" The uncle pointed to the two-thirds that had not been cut, and gestured for the master to continue cutting down.
The master chef didn't say anything, and cut another knife according to his request.
With this knife, the stone fell more severely than the previous half, and the whole stone fell apart completely before it was cut to the bottom.
Flying debris rustled and fell, as if the uncle had broken his heart piece by piece.
