Chapter 1245: Five dollars for a young man’s hat
"Okay, I forgot that you are a semi-monk, not a gambler."
Wang Qiang shook his head and said: "Betting on Qingpi is actually a way of playing that has emerged in response to the booming cultural toy market.
The so-called green peel is the Wenwan walnut just picked from the tree. Because the skin is green, it is called green skin.
The so-called bet on green leather is to select a pair of similar sizes among countless green leathers. After cutting them, if the texture is clear and the appearance is good, then you will make a profit. "
Fang Yang shook his head: "Isn't it just a few walnuts? Twenty or thirty-one pounds, how much more can I make?"
Wang Qiang was so angry that he jumped on his feet: "Are you really stupid or are you pretending to be stupid? Can playing with green skin be the same as eating walnuts? Of course, the cheapest one only costs a few yuan.
But for big size and good quality, it can cost tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands! Isn’t this a big benefit? "
Fang Yang was shocked: "I'll go and get tens of thousands of times the profit?! It's really cruel..."
The two of them chatted while the car slowly drove into downtown Songjiang, and the sky turned a fishy white.
After eating something casually on the street, Wang Qiang asked: "Come over now and have a look? We agreed to meet tomorrow."
Fang Yang wiped his mouth: "So what? The appointment is for tomorrow. If we go over today, won't you let us play?"
Wang Qiang knew that Fang Yang wanted to understand the process of betting on Qingpi first: "Your boss Fang is here, who dares not to let you play? Let's go."
After settling the bill, the two of them arrived at Songjiang Stone Gambling City.
Although it is open 24 hours a day, this is the time of day when there are the fewest people. Apart from a few staff and cleaning staff, there were almost no customers.
The two of them stood in the lobby on the first floor and looked around. Wang Qiang pulled Fang Yang and pointed to a corner on the left: "There is a gambling house there, go and have a look."
The two of them walked over and saw that the boss was lying on the camp bed soundly asleep while there were few people around. Fang Yang said funny: "You are so big-hearted, aren't you afraid that others will take away all his things?"
Wang Qiang pointed to the surveillance camera above: "Although the stall fees here are a bit expensive, they are still quite secure.
If someone is dishonest here, if found out, the punishment will be very severe. If no one can be found, Stone Gambling City will be responsible for the store's losses. "
"It's quite humane." Fang Yang didn't ask again, but looked at the price on the stall.
The innermost layer of green skin looks big and fresh, and the standard is three thousand. The one below is a little smaller, a little off in color, and priced at one thousand five hundred and fifty.
On the lower floors, the number varies from hundreds to hundreds. The most speechless thing is that in the corner next to it, there is a large basket made of bamboo, with a basket of black-colored green leather piled inside.
A sign in front of the basket reads: "Five dollars a pair!"
Fang Yang picked one up casually and looked at it: "Is this also a green-skinned one? I think it's better to call it a black-skinned one."
Wang Qiang said: "Those are old goods, or they were squeezed during transportation. As long as they turn black, the walnuts inside may be damaged and the quality will be affected, so they are not valuable."
Fang Yang picked a few that looked bigger: "Isn't it said that bigger is better? These ones should be considered big, right?"
"What's the use of Everbright?"
Wang Qiang took one over and took a look: "The pedicle inside the navel at the bottom has shrunk and become empty, resulting in a hollow under the walnut and a leaky navel. The color inside must be wrong."
Fang Yang couldn't help but clicked his tongue: "There are so many Taoists! It's no less learned than gambling on stones."
"Of course!" Wang Qiang said with a masterful look: "If you don't have more than ten years of vision, you will basically be deceived.
Let me give you a solid foundation. The green skins brought out for gambling here are all leftovers from others. The really good stuff has been taken away long ago.
Of course, that’s not to say there aren’t good ones here, but the production rate is too low, and I’m afraid it’s no better than buying lottery tickets. "
The two of them were talking about Qingpi's various ways. The boss who was sleeping there suddenly jumped up and said angrily:
"Please, you two are here chattering so early in the morning, why don't you let me sleep?"
Wang Qiang's eyes widened: "What's your attitude? I haven't been here for just a few days, and someone dares to yell at me?"
It seems that after seeing the conflict here, security guards came over immediately. Seeing Wang Qiang, he immediately nodded and bowed in flattery and said:
"Hey, Brother Qiang, what kind of fragrant wind brought you here? Come on, please come upstairs!"
Wang Qiang snorted coldly: "Humph, upstairs? I'm afraid I don't have the qualifications! I was coaxed out even when I was walking around outside, how dare I go upstairs?"
The security guard said quickly: "Misunderstanding! It's definitely a misunderstanding! Lao Ma only took over the store this year. I have never seen Brother Qiang. You have a lot, so you are arrogant."
When Lao Ma saw this posture, he didn't understand that he had hit the iron plate. No sleepiness at all, he smiled cautiously:
"Two gentlemen, I am too blind to recognize the truth. Please don't blame me for neglecting you. If you take your fancy, just take it and consider it as my apology to you two."
Wang Qiang was given enough face by others, so Wang Qiang was not so angry: "As long as you have the heart, doing business is not easy. I want this pair. Here are three thousand, cut them for me."
Wang Qiang pointed to a pair of green leather ones and handed over three thousand yuan. Lao Ma declined for a few times, but when he saw that he insisted on giving it, he accepted it.
Quickly cutting open the pair of green skins Wang Qiang selected, Lao Ma immediately handed them to Wang Qiang:
"Congratulations to Brother Qiang, you really have a good eye! One is forty-one-three, and the other is forty-one-nine. The best chicken hearts, at least five."
Wang Qiang couldn't help but show a hint of amusement in his eyes, and took a pair of chicken hearts: "Just for fun, Fang Yang, don't you choose a pair?"
Fang Yang shook a pair of green leathers in his hands: "I have chosen, this is the right one."
Wang Qiang screamed: "Are you kidding? You obviously picked them off before they were ripe. Although they are not small, look at them, they are all shrunk!"
Lao Ma also said: "Mr. Fang, we are all one of our own. I can't cheat anyone but you! This kind of green skin that is beaten off before it is ripe is not only easy to shrink, but also easy to crack, making it difficult to keep."
Fang Yang weighed a pair of green leather ones in his hand: "It's just for fun anyway. It only costs five yuan a pair. I don't feel bad about it. I want this pair. Give me the money."
Wang Qiang handed over five dollars: "It doesn't matter if it's money or not. I'm just curious about what you can get out of this pair."
Seeing Wang Qiang hand over five yuan, Lao Ma didn't refuse. After all, there is no need for someone with his status.
Fang Yang handed a pair of green leathers in his hand to Lao Ma: "Since he wants to see it, then please ask Boss Ma to open it again."
"It should, it should."
After Lao Ma took it, he cut the green leather open quickly and safely exposed the true body inside. He was stunned: "It's actually a pair of boy hats?!"
The walnuts cut out by the old horse have a full and round belly, wide ears and thick sides, low piles and dignified bottoms, and the shoulders are in the shape of an isosceles triangle. The valve is diamond-shaped and the cortex is very dense.
"Young man's hat? It does look a bit like it." Fang Yang took the walnut in his hand and crossed it a few times: "Then do I make a profit?"
Wang Qiang said with emotion: "Not only did I make a profit, I made a lot of money... Your pair must be four in size, at least 20,000 yuan."
Lao Ma was also filled with admiration: "I didn't expect Mr. Fang to be such an expert. I've been running a stall for so long, and this is the first time someone has offered me a young man's hat for five yuan."
