C142 Great Xi Men Feng
"Phone transfer will do." The middle-aged businessman said.
The waiter smiled and walked over with a 2D code.
After paying, two stone-cutters with white gloves came over with special cutting machines. They asked the middle-aged merchant what angle he wanted to cut from. The middle-aged merchant seemed to know something about this. He took a stone pen and drew a mark on it, then handed it to the stone-cutters.
Buzz. Zi... Zi... "
With a piercing sound, the alloy saw began to spin rapidly, causing white fog to fly everywhere. But very quickly, the white fog suddenly turned into a green fog.
"There it is! There it is!"
Many of the onlookers were familiar with this area. When they saw this scene, they could not help but shout out loud.
"Tsk tsk tsk, so it's the Hibiscus Seed."
He took the stone-cutting master and took out the stone. Immediately, someone said with slight disappointment.
"Hibiscus seed? What does that mean?"
Qin Chuan knew nothing about this. He turned his head and looked at the elder who spoke just now.
The old man's eyebrows were all white. He was wearing a Tang suit, and he stood there straight. He gave people a sense of grandeur.
"Little brother, you don't understand, right? Jade is divided into three types and 27 types. Its value is also ranked according to the degree of transparent jade and the water type. " The jade that this brother opened is a Hibiscus type. It can only be considered a middle-grade jade. Judging from its size, it should be worth about 100,000 yuan. "
The old man was exaggerating. It seemed that he had quite a good understanding of this area.
"100,000 yuan is not bad. After all, he only spent 10,000 yuan. In less than a minute, the value has increased by tenfold. It's considered a huge profit!"
"Yeah, I think these stones are not bad. I'll take one. What if there's a Hibiscus Glass Seed too?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the surrounding people rushed up with a huala sound and crazily grabbed the stones. The old man who spoke just now was in the middle of the crowd. It was unknown who pushed him, but he looked like he was about to fall into a stall full of raw stones.
"Be careful!"
Qin Chuan just happened to see this scene. He didn't have time to think about it, so he hurried forward to support the old man. Only then did he avoid the old man's bleeding.
"Little brother, thank you so much."
The old man wiped the cold sweat off his forehead. If not for Qin Chuan's quick reaction to support him, given his age, this fall would have taken half of his life.
"No need to thank me. I see that old mister seems to know a lot about jade. I wonder if you can give me some pointers?"
Qin Chuan said respectfully. This old man gave him a very cultured feeling, and he did not seem like an ordinary person. He could not help but have the idea of befriending him.
"Hahaha, these are all small matters. You just have to follow me in a while."
The old man laughed heartily and acknowledged Qin Chuan.
"I wonder how I should address you, old mister?"
"My surname is Wu, just call me Elder Wu."
The two of them talked and laughed, then walked to a raw stone.
This raw stone was of excellent quality. Its outer skin was dark brown, and lines of stone patterns were scattered on the surface. If one looked closely, one could see a dark green light in it. Even though Qin Chuan did not understand these things, he still felt that this stone was not an ordinary stone.
Because of its outstanding quality, this stone was already occupied by many businessmen. Even Ximen Feng, who did not appear in the afternoon, brought an old man to surround the stone and carefully examine it.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk. I haven't seen the quality of this raw stone in a long time. There must be something inside, and it is very expensive."
"Of course. The starting price of this stone is as high as five million. "But the second most expensive stone in this raw gemstone assembly, of course it's not bad."
"The starting price is five million. I estimate that it will be at least tens of millions for these wealthy businessmen to fight for it. We don't have that much money."
The onlookers discussed among themselves. Many of them also came forward with special strong flashlights and shone them on the raw stone. They wanted to see if the raw stone was worth bidding for.
"Elder Liu, I'll have to trouble you for the auction this time."
Ximen Feng turned to the old man beside him and said with respect.
"Young master, please rest assured. I am here to participate in this ore auction to find a few suitable pieces of jade for my family. Naturally, I will do my best."
The old man nodded proudly. His tone was quite confident.
"Alright, then let Elder Liu take a look."
Ximen Feng's face was filled with joy. With Elder Liu's help this time, he would definitely seize the good jade. Perhaps he would even be able to earn back the money he lost during the auction in the morning.
Thinking of this, Ximen Feng couldn't help but snort coldly. Qin Chuan's detestable face appeared in front of his eyes.
"I don't know if that kid will come down or not. I'm still waiting for him to make a fool of himself in front of others!"
The old man called Elder Liu immediately took out a special flashlight from his pocket. With a serious face, he walked forward and put the flashlight on the surface of the raw stone to carefully look at it.
"Elder Liu, how is this raw stone? Is it worth us to do it? " Ximen Feng asked impatiently.
"That's right." Elder Liu nodded and said after checking carefully for a while.
"The price of this raw stone is five million, but I can see that it is full of water. There is a faint light reflecting it. There will definitely be green in it, and its value will at least increase by ten times!"
Ximen Feng's eyes lit up when he heard this. Such a large raw stone, the green it would give out would definitely not be small. If he carved it carefully, he would definitely earn a lot.
More and more people gathered around. When the auctioneer saw that it was about time, he immediately began to announce the auction of the raw stone.
"The bidding for this raw stone starts now. The starting price is five million. Each bid must be increased by at least five hundred thousand."
As soon as he finished speaking, someone immediately shouted.
"I bid five million five hundred thousand!"
"Six million!"
"Seven million..."
As the crowd chased after it, the price of the raw stone kept rising. In a short while, it had already broken the ten million mark, and there was still a trend of rising.
"Elder Wu, what do you think about this raw stone?" Qin Chuan glanced at Ximen Feng, who was in the crowd, with a red face and a thick neck. He turned around and asked Elder Wu.
"You mean this stone?" Elder Wu pointed at the stone with disdain.
"I have studied it just now. Although this raw stone looks like that on the surface and has an extraordinary quality, except for that little bit of green on the surface, almost all of it is made of stone!"
Qin Chuan couldn't help but reveal a surprised expression and asked in doubt. "I wonder how Elder Wu saw it?"
"This is more complicated. One is to observe the direction of the veins on its skin, and the second is to accumulate experience over the years..."
Elder Wu said while shaking his head. He only gave Qin Chuan a vague feeling and did not understand what was going on.
"Little Fellow Qin, if you are willing to learn, I can teach you." Elder Wu finally finished his long speech and patted Qin Chuan's shoulder.0
"Uh... I think I should just forget about it. I'll just watch the show." Qin Chuan smiled bitterly. This stone gambling culture was extensive and profound. He did not have the patience to learn how to play around with it.
"I'll pay 20 million!"
The auction over there had already reached a boiling point. Following Ximen Feng's shout, the entire venue could not help but quieten down.
Everyone couldn't help but exclaim. This young master of Ximen family was really generous. He had raised the price to 20 million. This time, no one would dare to raise the price anymore, right?
Ximen Feng raised his head with a proud expression on his face.
He had basically raised the price to the maximum. He was determined to get this raw stone!
"I bid 25 million!"
At this time, a vigorous business suddenly came from the crowd.
Ximen Feng's face darkened when he heard the voice. He turned his head to see who was so ignorant and dared to compete with Young Master Ximen for business.
This man was none other than Wang Dachuan.
Wang Dachuan separated the crowd and walked over. He pretended to be surprised as he looked at Ximen Feng and said.
"Oh, so it's Young Master Ximen. I thought that you would return home after the auction ended. I didn't expect that you would still dare to stay here."
"Why? Do I still need to report to you, Wang Dachuan, where I am?"
Ximen Feng harrumphed coldly. He knew that Wang Dachuan was mocking him about the auction.
"Of course not, but the highest bidder will get the raw gemstone. I wonder if Young Master Ximen has enough funds?" Wang Dachuan said as if he was implying something.
"You don't have to worry about that. My Ximen family has plenty of money." Ximen Feng gave him a fierce glare. The family had asked him to participate in this ore auction, so he naturally didn't need to pay for it.
"I bid thirty million!"
Ximen Feng gritted his teeth and glared at Wang Dachuan. A matter that could be solved with twenty million, but this damn fatty had raised it to thirty million. How detestable.
