138. The Stallion Man Who Got a Sudden Opportunity

"I was the first to see this jade material."

Before Zhang Zifan spoke, Bai Ling had already picked up the stone from the pile of stones. According to the unspoken rules of the gambling stone circle, when Bai Ling checked the gambling value of the stone and decided whether to buy it, other people could not intervene.

Moreover, Bai Ling picked up the stone because he had decided to buy it, so how could he give it to Zhang Zifan?

Old Huo, the old man who introduced Zhang Zifan this time, looked at the other party's reckless behavior and thought that it was the first time for the other party to participate in gambling stones and did not understand the rules. He hurriedly stepped forward to stop him.

"Since this stone is favored by the little girl, Zifan, you can choose other stones you like."

In the eyes of Old Huo, stones that cost two hundred yuan a piece are not gambling at all. The Zhang family is wealthy, and there is no need to snatch a piece of waste stone from a girl who looks like a student.

Those who can come here today are all well-known figures. Although this little girl is dressed in ordinary clothes, who knows which family she is from? If the young one is beaten and the old one comes, it will be troublesome.

"I really like this stone. Let's do this. I will pay 20,000 yuan. Please give this stone to me."

In front of Jiang Qiao, Zhang Zifan behaved politely, but a person's temperament is difficult to change. He doesn't look like him when he wears a dragon robe. This is what the prince said. The affluent life in the past six months has made him more arrogant and arrogant. The arrogance in his eyes can't be concealed.

Old Huo had witnessed Zhang Zifan picking up several leaks before. He admired his ability very much. It is inevitable that he is proud of his young success, so he can tolerate it.

Jiang Qiao couldn't do it. She was not satisfied with the marriage arranged by her ancestors. Seeing Zhang Zifan throwing money at people, she felt disgusted. Her pale face became more and more cold.

"I also like this stone."

Bai Ling's eyes became brighter and brighter. That's right. Last time, this idiot kept bidding, but the jade hairpin turned out to be a treasure. Now it seems that there must be something good in this stone.

For some reason, Bai Ling has such strange confidence.

"Fifty thousand, this price is enough to buy a stone with better appearance."

Zhang Zifan frowned. He was determined to get this stone.

The hero found countless treasures in the novel, but Zhang Zifan remembered the place and the specific things he found, only the priceless jadeite with high ice imperial jade in front of him.

There are several chapters in the novel that describe in detail the scene of the hero finding the imperial jade. It was also because he cut out the jade from the pile of waste stones for two hundred yuan that made the hero famous in the gambling stone circle again after the antique circle.

He remembered that the jadeite that the male protagonist found was the largest one in the pile of stones worth two hundred yuan, and the square material next to the stone that looked most like a watermelon. Don't look at the appearance of that stone. Except for the thin outer layer of leather, it was full of high-quality ice jadeite. The purity and color were top-level. Large jadeite was extremely rare. It was auctioned at a sky-high price of more than 38 million yuan on the spot.

Zhang Zifan is now just a rich young master who is still in college and only has his own shares and pocket money in the family. One or two million may be enough, but tens of millions are stretched.

He picked up some leaks in the past six months, and he has also made money one after another, but he spent more. He originally thought that buying that jadeite today would relieve the financial pressure, but who knew that someone would be one step ahead, so no matter what, Zhang Zifan must grab that jadeite.

"I'm sorry, we chose this stone first. According to the rules, no matter how high the price you offer, this stone is ours."

Yan Chu protected Bai Ling behind him and said to Zhang Zifan.

Although he had not had direct contact with this time-space destroyer in the past six months, he had been silently paying attention to the other party's actions. After all, his second mission was to make the original owner's original harem live in peace. If this time-space destroyer had the idea of ​​replacing the original owner, wouldn't his second mission fail?

Fortunately, the other party didn't seem to be very popular with girls. Several times he had contact with Long Ruofei and others, he returned empty-handed.

"Not enough? I'll give you 100,000."

Zhang Zifan looked at the man in front of him who seemed to be more handsome than him with disdain. What are the rules? Only those who have money are qualified to make rules. Looking at what clothes and shoes he wears, he doesn't look like a young master from a rich family.

"Who brought this? Do you still understand the rules?"

Because the group of people were deadlocked, many people gathered here. After understanding the cause and effect of the matter, they all felt disgusted with Zhang Zifan.

If this gambling stone was a famous brand or a secret auction, many people would take a fancy to a piece of material at the same time and bid against each other. This is allowed. Now each piece of material is clearly marked with a price, and this will make people impatient.

Immediately, a jeweler stood up to speak for Bai Ling.

"I don't have much here, but I have a lot of good materials. Why don't you take a look at other stones?"

Zhang Zhi's uncle Hao Dafu was dragged over from the other side by Zhang Zhi, fearing that his friend would be bullied by a rooster in her uncle's territory.

Zhang Zhi could not think of any other familiar animals except roosters, who always stretched their necks, raised their heads high and squinted at people, and looked smug.

Businessmen make money by being harmonious. Although he was also very unhappy that Zhang Zifan made trouble in his territory and embarrassed himself in front of his niece, Hao Dafu still took the first step to reconcile.

"You are the boss here. She hasn't paid for the stone yet, right? I'll offer 200,000 yuan for it. Is that high enough?"

In Zhang Zifan's opinion, there is no businessman who doesn't love money. He gave him a 1,000 times the price of a 200-yuan stone. He must be very happy.

If someone familiar with Hao Dafu was here at this time, he would have seen that although he was smiling, he was already angry.

Hao Dafu has been in the jade business for so many years. He has the final say in the entire jewelry raw material circle, but no one has ever lost his face like this. Who brought this fool here?

"Zifan, Boss Hao doesn't have that rule here. Since all the jade materials are clearly marked, if there is a buyer, no matter how high the price is, it will not be easy to sell."

Old Huo's face was very ugly. He brought Zhang Zifan here, and he actually lost his face.

In the past, I only thought that although this child was arrogant, he also had some talent and could be cultivated as a young and middle-aged force in the antique circle. Now it seems that the other party's temper of not being able to read other people's eyes will sooner or later cause a big disaster, so it is better to make a clear relationship with the other party as soon as possible.

"I offer one or two million. If Miss Wei is also willing to offer such a price, I am willing to give it up."

In his previous life, Zhang Zifan had enough of other people's eyes, the workshop director's, the workers', what qualifications did those people have to despise him. In this life, he became a rich young man and had a golden finger against the sky. Zhang Zifan didn't want to wrong himself even more.

There are always many cannon fodder characters who are looking for death on the road to success of the protagonist. Zhang Zifan thinks that the fat man in front of him and those who point fingers at him are those cannon fodders who don't appear often.

"Sir, I don't welcome you here. Please leave."

Hao Dafu's face was completely pulled down, and he made a gesture to Zhang Zifan to ask him to leave.

If Hao Dafu really compromised for two million today, it would be a blow to his own reputation. Unless he didn't want to be in the gambling stone circle anymore, he would never help Zhang Zifan break the rules of the gambling stone circle.

"Boss Hao, for my sake, please forgive Zifan this time. This is his first time in this circle, and he hasn't figured out many rules. I will talk to him."

Old Huo didn't want to deal with this young man who never changed his ways, but he invited him. If he was really kicked out, he probably wouldn't have the face to appear in this circle again.

All the people present today were the dignitaries in the jewelry circle. Zhang Zifan's behavior offended most of them. He would talk about it after he took over the Zhang family.

Jiang Qiao didn't say a word throughout the whole process, but just watched her fiancé's jokes in a subtle way. She hoped that Hao Dafu could really kick Zhang Zifan out, so that she would have more confidence when she wanted to get rid of this engagement that she didn't accept.

Her eyes passed over Bai Ling and Yan Chu, who was protecting her in an inconspicuous protective posture. It could be seen that they seemed to be an ordinary couple.

Jiang Qiao's eyes flashed with envy and self-mockery. Such sincere feelings were really a luxury for someone like her.

If Zhang Zifan was useful, she might be willing to pretend to be nice to him and increase her voice in the Jiang family. But this man has become more and more stupid in recent days. He has ignored the great foundation of the Zhang family and indulged in the so-called antiques. He has not seen him do anything big. He only buys two or three antiques a month, and the total price is only the pocket money for them to be born for one or two months.

Moreover, according to the report of the people Jiang Qiao sent to keep an eye on Zhang Zifan, he frequently went in and out of certain "entertainment venues" in the past six months. Seeing him being affectionate in front of her and performing with her, Jiang Qiao felt like vomiting.

The eldest lady of the Qinglong Gang has already come to warn her that if she doesn't like her fiancé and lets him harass her again, she will break his third leg.

Jiang Qiao hoped that this day would come soon, so that her family would reconsider whether letting her, a daughter of the Jiang family, marry a son of the Zhang family who was destined to be infertile, could bring enough benefits to the Jiang family.

Zhang Zifan had never thought that Hao Dafu would directly ask him to leave. Did he know who he was?

"Since Mr. Huo has pleaded for him, I will forgive him this time. But if he breaks the rules of my gambling stone business again, don't blame me, Hao Dafu, for being ruthless."

Mr. Huo's reputation in the gambling stone industry is average, but he is still well-known in the antique circle. Since the other party asked for mercy, Hao Dafu couldn't do anything too extreme.

That was more than 30 million. Zhang Zifan wanted to ask again, but Mr. Huo quickly pulled him aside and didn't give him the chance to speak again.

"Enough, there are so many stones here, why do you insist on a stone that the girl has already chosen? There are so many people here, do you want to give people the impression that you are bullying others and don't know the rules?"

Old Huo said to Zhang Zifan with a pained look, and seeing his resentful look, he lost his patience and appreciation for him.

After being told this by the other party, Zhang Zifan also realized that he was too obvious. Once the stone turned green, it might also arouse suspicion from others. Although he was still unwilling, he still endured it.

But this time, he remembered the two faces of Yan Chu and Bai Ling completely. Before, the 180,000 yuan, the suddenly rich Mr. Zhang didn't care much, but this time it was more than 30 million yuan, how could Zhang Zifan not feel heartbroken.

"Xiao Ling, you must have been scared just now. Don't worry. If nothing else, I still have the final say in this territory. As long as it doesn't violate the rules of the stone circle, you can play with confidence."

Hao Dafu felt quite embarrassed. The niece's friend met such a fool when he came over to play for the first time. Don't think that those who play stone gambling are just that kind of rubbish.

"Uncle Hao, we can't take this stone for nothing. You also said that there are rules for betting on stone circles. If we don't pay, I'm afraid something will happen again."

The selected gambling stones were all paid on the spot, and cash could be swiped by card at will. Yan Chu directly took out two hundred yuan and handed it over to the accountant next to Hao Dafu.

Hao Dafu followed Yan Chu's gaze and saw Zhang Zifan, who was still staring at the stone in Bai Ling's hand. He suddenly became more disgusted with that piece of garbage. Who had raised such a worthless thing? .

"Well, Uncle Hao won't be polite to you anymore."

He also knew that it would be more appropriate to collect the two hundred yuan now. If no jade was produced, he would ask his niece to pay the money back.

"Uncle, I also gave you money."

Zhang Zhi also joined in the fun. She chose the gourd-shaped stone that Bai Ling had just struggled with, and handed the two hundred yuan to her uncle's hand while jumping.

"This little girl."

Hao Dafu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and handed the money to the accountant. Anyway, he would just give her a little more pocket money when the time comes.

"Uncle, please take us to cut this stone quickly. I have a hunch that there will be green inside."

Zhang Zhike was excited. Hao Dafu couldn't beat him. He had asked his master to examine this piece of jade carefully. It was all scraps cut from jade and some materials of very poor quality. Even if it could turn green, then It is also the worst kind of glutinous seeds or bean seeds, which are mostly stones.

Zhang Zhi didn't care. This was her first time betting on stones, so she was looking forward to it.

The people who had just watched the fight for the stone gathered around Bai Ling curiously when they saw Bai Ling trying to remove the piece of jade in her hand. Although it was a piece of jade that was not very gambleable, there was a fool who was willing to spend two million. Coming to grab this piece of blocking material is enough to make this jade material have an attraction that other jade materials do not have.

They all wanted to see what kind of jade could be obtained from the jade material that Zhang Zifan had just requested.

"How do you plan to cut this piece of jade?"

The jade material the size of a football is not too small, so the master who cut the stone asked Bai Ling to draw a cutting line.

"Can you do what the gentleman did when he solved the stone just now?"

Bai Ling thought that the person who removed the stone before her used another tool to rub it, which seemed to cause less damage to the jade. It was also her first time to play this, so she was unsure.

Wiping is very time-consuming, and it is completely unnecessary for two hundred yuan worth of scrap material. However, Bai Ling was brought by the boss Hao Dafu. The stone-cutting master didn’t say anything. He took the tools and started to cut the stone. There was a scratch on it.

"It's green, but the water head is still high for ice species."

In just a few minutes, the tool scratched a small hole in the stone shell. The stone-cutting master's eyes were very sharp. He stopped when he saw the greenery almost at the same time, poured water on that side, and picked up the stone. A flashlight shines inside.

The green light suddenly flashed in the hearts of all the onlookers.

Among so many people, Zhang Zifan was the only one with a clear look of pain on his face. Jiang Qiao happened to notice this scene inadvertently and hid suspicion in his heart.

Zhang Zifan's behavior seemed to be that he already knew what was in the jade material. Something was wrong, right?

Jiang Qiao wondered if she was overthinking it, but this question was still buried deep in her heart.

"The high-ice imperial green, I haven't seen the water head so good in many years. Even if it's only as big as a fingernail, little girl, you've made a lot of money."

All the jewelry merchants were excited. In addition to gambling on stones, they also came here to purchase high-quality jade stones that others had solved to provide supplies for their own jewelry stores.

In recent years, there are fewer and fewer high-end jade materials, and there is almost no piece of jade material with high ice type and high ice type. You and I are competing for it.

"I'll pay you one million. Little girl, you've already made a lot of money. If you cut it further and it breaks, you won't be able to sell it for this price."

It was just a skylight, and the possibility of uncertainty was high. Someone immediately made a bid to lobby Bai Ling.

"You are too cowardly. The young man over there just now wanted to spend two million to buy this piece of jade. I will give you three million to take a gamble."

A group of jade dealers competed to open the door and pushed the price to 4.5 million, which is already a good price for jade that is now made of semi-finished materials.

"Yan Chu."

Bai Ling has never been such a big boss. If he doesn't cut it down, he will get 4.5 million. If he cuts it down, if it collapses, I'm afraid it will only cost him a hundred thousand.

She couldn't make up her mind and looked at Yan Chu nervously.

"If you want to sell it, you can sell it. If you don't want to sell it, let's continue cutting it down. If it collapses, the piece of jade exposed now will be big enough for a pair of rings. It can be used as an engagement ring."

Yan Chu held Bai Ling's hand and asked her to relax: "Think about it, we bought this for two hundred yuan. Even if it collapsed, we still made a pair of rings. This is also a good thing." What a joy.”

His open-minded attitude made many onlookers raise their eyebrows. In the stone gambling circle, there are many people who lose their fortune due to gambling. There are really not many people who downplay a multi-million jade material like this person. .

Could it be that the other party was born rich and doesn't care about four or five million?

But looking at the other party's dress and his girlfriend's behavior just now, he doesn't look like a rich man.

Among them, the one who knows Yan Chu best is Hao Dafu. He heard from his niece that she is dating a friend whose parents have a gold medal for death exemption. He also knows the situation of the other party's family.

Thinking about his mentality at the same age as the other party, Hao Dafu felt that Yan Chu was a promising talent. At least in terms of mentality, there are things worth learning from him.

"Then continue to cut down. I want to cut out all of it."

With Yan Chu's comfort, Bai Ling felt much more relaxed. Although it would be hard to face the gap between millions and hundreds of thousands when the time comes, as Yan Chu said, thinking that this piece of jade was bought for two hundred yuan, it seems not so sad.

Besides, with Zhang Zifan's previous performance, Bai Ling is very confident about this piece of jade.

She thinks Zhang Zifan may be the lucky star who sends her money.

Many jewelers who were still waiting and watching thought that Bai Ling's idea of ​​full cutting was also good. The profit from clear material was not as much as that from gambling material, but at least there was no risk. The profit was the difference between the processing fee and the resale price. As the saying goes, gold has a price, but jade is priceless. If a buyer likes the high ice-type imperial jade, it is possible to multiply it several times.

"It's incredible."

As the outer coat of the jade material was wiped off bit by bit, everyone's mouths grew bigger and bigger, and they were stunned by this jadeite with only a layer of stone coat on the surface and full of jade inside.

The jade, which was a circle smaller than the original, exuded a warm and translucent luster without any flaws. It was green and glittering like a pool of clear spring water, and it could turn into water at any time. Such a good jade material has not been seen in more than ten years, and it was hidden in a pile of jade materials worth two hundred yuan.

No one knew whether Hao Dafu regretted it or not, but he was still very stable on the surface.

"Twenty million."

"Twenty-two million."

Jewelers bid one after another, and many even picked up their phones to call the company's real boss or the finance department to see how much liquid funds the company could withdraw. They were all greedy for this piece of jade.

"Twenty-eight million."

"Thirty million."

The bids were called out one by one, and Bai Ling felt that his heart, which had just been tense as the stone was being cut, was about to jump out of his throat.

Thirty million, how many zeros are there after it? His mind was in a mess.

"Thirty-five million."

"Thirty-six million."

"Thirty-six and a half million."

The higher the amount, the fewer people bid. Each time the price was called out, the more cautious it became. In the end, only two internationally renowned jewelry companies were bidding.

"Thirty-seven million."

This was the highest price that Company L could offer. The company had imported a batch of jade from Myanmar some time ago, and there was not much cash left for this purchase. For this rare jade, they were afraid that they would return empty-handed.

"38 million."

Sure enough, when the budget was almost exhausted, another company also shouted out its additional bid, ending the auction.

Since Yan Chu took on the responsibility of preparing lunch for the two, Jin Xiujuan asked her son to apply for a bank card. The money for his and Bai Ling's meals was deposited into the card, which was convenient for withdrawal at any time. Therefore, the more than 30 million was immediately transferred to Yan Chu's account.

Afterwards, Zhang Zhi's small gourd also produced jade material, but it was not as good as Bai Ling's. It was between ice and bean. The jade material was not big, but it was also sold for 20,000 yuan.

Ten million jade stones were produced from the waste material worth two hundred yuan. Everyone present was crazy. They wanted to buy all the jade materials in the factory and look forward to producing better jade materials.

Hao Dafu felt a little distressed about the emperor jade that ran away from under his nose, but he was also happy that his jade material was recognized. One plus one minus, it was not so sad.

The factory suddenly became lively, the sound of cutting jade materials was endless, and people were walking around everywhere, afraid that it would be too late and the good stones would be picked up by others.

Zhang Zifan had been standing there in a daze, thinking hard, and suddenly, an inexplicable fear flashed in his eyes.

He remembered the familiar name Yan Chu. Isn't this the hero in the novel? The other party's supernatural powers were taken away by him, why would he appear here and take away the jade that made him famous.

Zhang Zifan's eyes were fixed on Yan Chu, and his body couldn't help shaking a little.

Could it be that the male protagonist's aura is so powerful, and he has a golden finger that he doesn't know about? No, he has to go back and investigate this man.

He didn't care about his fiancée who was pursuing him. Zhang Zifan ran away and threw Jiang Qiao at the gambling venue.
