Chapter 14
With something in mind, Su Mu was no longer so excited, and even the delicious breakfast in the past was no longer so delicious.
After finishing breakfast listlessly, Su Mu got up and was about to go back to the room to pick up his luggage. It was getting late, and it was time to set off.
Seeing that his words seemed to hit Su Mu hard, Yan Hao immediately felt guilty, thought for a while, and finally said: "Don't worry, I used to earn a lot of wages from part-time jobs, and I can lend you some money then."
Looking around, he made sure that Mr. Su was not nearby, so he boldly leaned into Su Mu's ear and said, "Or you can go to the medicine garden to dig some ginseng. I think the ginseng in your family is quite old. , that thing is quite valuable."
Su Mu lowered his head, as if he was thinking about the feasibility of Yan Hao's proposal, "Go to the city first to see how much money grandpa prepared for me, and then we can talk about it. The herbs in the medicine garden are not yet ready for picking. Pick them now." I’ll lose a lot, and it’s not worth it.” Besides, to sell medicinal materials, the ones in the medicine garden are not enough, so it’s better to use the ones in his space to exchange for money.
Yan Hao thought it was the same, so he stopped talking, at worst, he would just lend the money to Su Mu.
Not long after, Su Mu came down with a bag on his back, and said to Yan Hao who was standing aside, "Okay, let's go." He walked out without looking back.
Yan Hao followed Su Mu out the door with a smile on his face.
They first arrived at Baishui City, which is located in the southeast coast of the hometown of overseas Chinese. The economy is very developed domestically, and because it is close to Yuezhou Province, many businessmen introduced emeralds for gambling in the early years. Although the jade industry It's not as good as Pingzhou in southern Yunnan, but there are quite a few people who know about it.
From the Baishui City Center Station, there are several ATMs opposite the ticket window at the station, which are used for the convenience of passengers to buy tickets.After Su Mu made such a check, he was immediately dazzled by the zeroes running around.
One, two, three, four... Su Mu counted the row of zeros carefully, and there were nine of them!He took a deep breath, unexpectedly, grandpa is actually a rich man!Quickly exit the interface, look left and right, and find that Yan Hao is guarding there with his back facing him, most people really dare not approach him.
Seeing his appearance, Yan Hao thought that there was not much money in the card, so he became more determined to lend the money to Su Mu.Pulling Su Mu into a taxi, he took Su Mu to a jade shop called "Yu Shi Xuan" familiarly.
When he was in Xiadu, because of his good temper, although the people around him were either rich or noble, Yan Hao didn't feel inferior and arrogant, and he made good friends with several roommates.
In their dormitory, there happened to be a family member who owned a jewelry company. His usual hobby was gambling stones. Based on the principle of sharing blessings, he would often invite roommates to gamble.After coming down a few times, Yan Hao also knew a lot about betting on stones.
Ever since he made up his mind to go gambling with Su Mu yesterday, Yan Hao found this roommate, and talked about the matter in this way. In the end, he not only got information about the stone gambling shops in Yizhou that are more suitable for them to go The detailed information, and from the hands of the roommate, I got an object that can be called the artifact of the empire's stone gambling.
The "Yushixuan" in front of me is the one strongly recommended by Yan Hao's roommate. According to him, the price of this store is fair, and the owner of the store just bought a batch of new ones from the jade market in country M yesterday. Woolen.If it wasn't for the fact that Yan Hao's roommate was too special, there were not many people who knew the inside story.
It was the first time for Su Mu to enter such a store. Although he had learned a lot about jade products and jade wool before coming, Su Mu still didn't make a sound. Anyway, Yan Xiaohao was there anyway?No need for nothing!
"Sir, may I help you?" A waiter wearing a modified Hanfu stepped forward and asked with a smile.
Yan Hao nodded, took out a card from his pocket and handed it over.The waiter took the card curiously, only to find that it was a membership card issued by the Imperial Jade Association.
Su Mu keenly noticed that after seeing Yan Hao's card, the waiter's attitude changed obviously. Although the smile was the same, there was a kindness on the beautiful face, which gave people a different feeling. .
"Hello, this card of yours can be used for [-]% discount in our store. I don't know if you want to buy finished products or bet on stones, sir? Our boss just imported a batch of raw materials from country M yesterday, all of which are on the public market this year. It’s here,” said the waiter.
Yan Hao has not answered. A rich man with a famous brand next to him and a very beautiful middle -aged man with a very beautiful young woman who are very beautiful. "Well, do I say you are a shop bullying? Just now I asked you if there is any place to gamble with stones, but you told me no, and now you are telling two boys with no hair that you can gamble with stones? I want to sue you!"
"Excuse me, sir, our store does not sell jade wool. Apart from regular customers in the store, only members of the Imperial Jade Association and Jewelry Association can participate. I'm really sorry. You three It's not relevant, so I will tell you no. You can see if you come to our counter to see what kind of jade products you like. Wait for a while, and I will ask you to give you the best price. You see How is it?" The store manager saw the dispute here, and immediately came over, and after understanding what happened, he comforted the customer.
"Hmph! Are we missing your idea discount? My dear just wants to show me what gambling is. Who knows that your shabby store is big, and you don't make money. You are really stupid!" Mr. Futai The girl next to her choked with disdain.
"That's right, and you don't want to fool us. As far as I know, how can a member of the Imperial Jade Association award it to a boy who has no hair yet? Don't lie to us!" Mr. Futai widened his eyes, A look of disbelief.
The store manager and the clerk looked at each other helplessly. Because of the good environment, Baishui City has a very high cultural background and a lot of cultural backgrounds since ancient times. Celebrities, some families in the literary world also like to live here.Although not as good as Xiadu and Yuncheng, they have formed their own circle.And "Jade Stone Pavilion" is the usual gathering place for members of the Jade Stone Association. How could it be possible for people to enter such a place casually?
From the beginning to the end, Su Mu and Yan Hao didn't say a word, they just pretended to watch from the sidelines, and Su Mu observed the Yushixuan from time to time between watching the play.
Although he doesn't know jade, who gave him golden fingers?There shouldn't be too much aura of various colors in this eye.It can be said that each of the jade on the counter here contains a good aura.It's a pity that each one has already been carved, the hand-carved ones are okay, those made in batches by machines are even worse, the aura of aura has long been destroyed.Su Mu shook his head secretly, did he still have to look for it from wool?
"Let's go! Waste of time." After watching for a while, Yan Hao got impatient, took Su Mu's hand, and walked to the backyard.
Su Mu has no objection, anyway, Yan Hao is the uncle today, just follow along, "Why do you have the membership of the Jade Association?" Su Mu, who crammed a lot of jade knowledge into his head last night, couldn't hide his curiosity.
"Cough! I don't have any hobbies. I just like to collect some jade stones to play with. I don't care about anything. This membership card of the Imperial Jade Association was obtained for me by a roommate of mine. He has some connections in his family. This is very simple, so I am not polite to him." Yan Hao explained with a smile.
"I see."
The two soon came to the backyard, and as soon as they opened the backyard door, a "squeak, squeak" sound of stone cutting entered the ears of the two of them. Yan Hao was fine, and Su Mu frowned immediately.
"It's so noisy!" Su Mu commented.
"Just get used to it!" Yan Hao comforted.
Su Mu pursed his lips and stopped talking. He walked to the woolen cloth aside, stretched out his hand, concentrated on feeling the feeling under his hand, and frowned.The aura of this piece of wool is very scarce, and there is not much jade in it, but the aura field in the wool has not been destroyed, which reassures Su Mu a lot.
Change a piece and draw a gourd in the same way again.After changing a few pieces of wool, Su Mu finally confirmed which wool he wanted to bet on.
Among these woolen materials, there is a piece of woolen material that contains a bit mixed aura. According to Su Mu's experience, there is not only aura of wood attribute, but also aura of two attributes of gold and water. It should be a piece of three colors. Jade, they also have a very nice name called "Fu Lu Shou" three-color jade.
It's just that it doesn't contain much aura. Judging from the jadeite he has come into contact with in the past few days, it should be lower than the ice-type jadeite.However, since it is a three-color jadeite, it must be worth a lot of money.Thinking of his modest wallet, Su Mu suddenly had an idea.
"It's green, it's green!" the exclamation of the onlookers came from the stone cutter.
"Old Wang is lucky today, and he actually cut the price."
"It looks like this jade meat seed water is not very good, but it looks like it has been eaten, and the color looks good, this time it shouldn't be a loss!" The person next to him with a bright flashlight looked like a professional. Said in a tone.
Subconsciously, Su Mu looked up and found that many people were gathered around the stone cutter.
"What's wrong? Is there something wrong with that piece of wool?" Yan Hao asked.
"It's so far away, how can I know the condition of that piece of wool? It's not that I have clairvoyant eyes. But do these people have nothing to do? Surround the place tightly." Su Mu's voice was very low, if it wasn't for Yan Hao recently My five senses have improved, but I may not be able to hear it.
"Where are so many people coming to gamble on stones every day? More people come to watch the excitement. This is human nature. However, many of these people are purchasing personnel from some jewelry companies." Yan Hao chuckled , Just as the two of them were talking in low voices, there was already a bid over there.
"Old Wang, I'll offer [-]. Give this piece of wool to our Mengyuan Jewelry! If you cut it any further, it might collapse." An elite in a suit and leather shoes among the onlookers said.
"Our Guofu Jewelry offers 15 yuan, Mr. Wang, please pass it on to us!" Another elite young man in similar attire immediately interjected.
"16, our Dream Jewelry is about to be ordered!" The elite man raised the price.
"18!" Another person also joined the ranks of bidding.
