Chapter 168 Gambling makes your heart beat
Le Xiaoxiao stepped into the stone gambling shop and saw two people wanting to go out. She politely stepped aside and was about to run to the stone dissolving machine. While watching Ren Jie Shi Chang's knowledge, he suddenly heard a shout of surprise and subconsciously turned around and looked behind him.
The store door was open, and no one came in. Behind her was a tall handsome guy wearing sunglasses. Leyun's eyes fell on handsome Yan, what kind of treasure was he talking about? Do you mean handsome guy Yan?
Glancing at the tall, mighty and majestic Yan, her eyes flicked to the two people in front of her. The young man among the two young men and women had a popular face, was delicate and quiet, and looked honest and honest at first glance. A simple, kind-hearted man who is not good at words. The other young woman has short hair that reaches her ears, wears white slacks, and is bright and flamboyant.
The young woman stood with the young man, and was only a few centimeters shorter than the man, which meant that the young woman was over 1.7 meters tall. Moreover, she was not wearing high heels, but flat casual shoes.
The young man was carrying a backpack, and he was helping the young woman carry her handbag. One hand was also supporting the lady's waist. His appearance of protecting flowers could be called a standard filial piety for a good male companion.
?
Her eyes fell on the beautiful woman, and Le Yun's eyes rolled around. The beautiful woman's face was very similar to that of handsome Yan Yan, and the most obvious thing was that she had a pair of dragon eyes.
If a man has a pair of dragon eyes, he must be majestic, upright, and powerful without anger; while if a woman has a pair of eyes, she is usually a fiery, upright and forthright person.
The young woman’s delicate face coupled with her beautiful and upright eyes exudes the natural charm of a woman, her ability and strength, and her standard popularity as a strong woman.
Looking at the young woman, and then at the handsome guy Yan, she suddenly realized that Yan and that person must be related by blood. If there was no blood relationship, she would have taken off her head and used it as a ball. Kick.
Looking at the young woman again, Le Yun blinked her big, watery eyes, pursed her lips and smiled. The beauty was pregnant with a baby. She probably did not use cosmetics or powder for the health of the baby. Wear lipstick, you are a good mother.
When the little girl looked at the two young men and women, the person involved did not pay attention. Her eyes fell on the handsome guy wearing sunglasses, and her eyes were full of surprise.
"Fifth sister, brother Jing, happy Mid-Autumn Festival." Yan Xing looked at the person who was facing each other, quickly took off his sunglasses, and wished them well.
Even though his face is still calm, his voice is slow and gentle, and his bright eyes are filled with warm light, wisps and threads of affection.
The young woman opposite is his grandmother’s third brother, his third uncle’s granddaughter He Panpan.The young man is He Panpan’s fiancé Kong Xijing.
The maiden name of Young Master Yan’s grandmother is He, after the founding hero He. His grandmother’s maiden name is He Ziqiong. There are five brothers and sisters. She ranks fourth, with three brothers, namely Zigong, Zi Rong, Zirui, has a younger brother named Zihua.
There are five He brothers and sisters, the eldest He Zigong, the fourth He Ziqiong, and the fifth He Zihua all passed away one after another. Only the second eldest He Zirong and the third eldest He Zirui are still alive, and they are the only two surviving members of the He family.
The He family’s married women only had one daughter, while their sons each had two or three children, including Sun Rongchang, and the least one had a son and a daughter. , there are many relatives in the family.
He Panpan ranks fifth among his peers in the He family and is one year older than Yan Xing. The He family brothers and sisters are very close to the descendants of the only aunt in the He family. The elder one regards his younger cousin as his own. He is loved by his younger brother, and the younger one regards him as his biological brother. The word "cousin" is never used between cousins, they are all called by rank or nickname.
Yan Xing also treats the relatives and elders of his grandmother's family as close relatives, and is also very close to his old cousins. He loves his family very much, and he always calls his cousin's boyfriend brother. He will only formally call her cousin after they get married. brother-in-law.
Kong Xijing smiled kindly when he saw his fiancée’s cousin. He was two years older than He Panpan and was born in an ordinary working-class family. From an outsider’s perspective, he and He Panpan were in love. , it was his sparrow that flew onto the branch and turned into a golden rooster. After all, the He family is a family of revolutionary heroes.
"Xiao Longbao, where are you celebrating the festival this year?" He Panpan beamed with joy, stepped in front of his handsome cousin in two steps, and punched his cousin on the shoulder to vent her frustration. She is considered very tall at home, but compared to her little cousin who is a head taller than her, she is still a dwarf.
Comparing people to each other is irritating. When she competed with her sisters at home, she won completely. But when she compared with her cousin, she lost all her advantages and was completely beaten.
Height cannot be changed. He Panpan cannot change his height. Every time he sees his cousin surprised, he feels depressed at the same time. He has to secretly give him something to give him something to vent his anger on.
"Fifth sister, you hit me every time. My sister bullies my younger brother. Next time I go back, I must ask my third uncle to make the decision." After being hit by a punch, Yan Xing's shoulder collapsed to one side. This cousin is a female man and has a lot of strength. She will hurt anyone she hits.
"You fool! You are so tough, but you are still afraid of me slapping you? My slapping is lighter than a tickle, and you have the nerve to accuse me of it. Isn't it embarrassing?" He Panpan laughed and scolded angrily. Among all the elders, this younger brother was the most powerful. Even if they attacked in groups, they could not defeat him. They were the ones who were beaten to pieces every time, okay?
The corners of Yan Xing’s eyes raised and he smiled lightly: “Oh, then I won’t announce the complaint to my third uncle. I will tell youGreat-grandma, how are you doing? Fifth sister, how are your great-grandma and uncles and aunts? ”
The handsome young man has a picturesque face, that smile, and the warmth flowing from the depths of his affectionate eyes. There is a hint of affection and nostalgia in his voice when he asks about his elders.
That The elegance of the moment stunned the eyes of others who heard the sound and looked at it.
After observing Le Yun for a while, she heard Yan handsome guy calling the young elder sister. She was aware of current affairs, so she quickly stepped out She went to a corner out of the way and looked at the people and stones in the store. When she heard the handsome guy call out the word "grandma", she was stunned.
The mother in the south calls her mother grandma, and in the north she calls her mother grandma. Mom’s mother is grandma, so grandma’s mother is great-grandma, and grandma’s mother is great-grandma, officially called great-grandma.
Handsome guy Yan is twenty-seven years old. According to his age, his mother If you get married just after turning 20, you should be around forty-seven at least. If a woman gets married at twenty, and so on, his grandmother must be at least sixty-seven, and by extrapolation, his great-grandmother must be over eighty-seven.
Great grandma...
Thinking that Handsome Yan still has a great grandma, Le Yun is jealous. He has lost his mother, grandma, and great grandma. She has lost her mother and grandma. Grandma didn’t even know who she was, but she was even more pitiful than Yan.
She felt sour and looked down at her toes.
“My grandparents are very nice, but my ancestors haven’t spoken much lately. Okay, I’m a little thinner. Don’t worry. My mother and aunts take care of my ancestors. Just take care of yourself. Xiao Longbao, you haven’t answered me yet about where I will go to celebrate the festival this year. If you don’t go back to accompany my great-grandma, I will. Should you go back to the Yan family or the Zhao family? "He Panpan clung to his cousin's shoulders, almost putting his weight on him.
His fiancée was used to being fickle, and Kong Xijing was used to it. He moved aside and secretly took care of her to prevent her from getting too excited. Don't pay attention to wrestling.
Yan Xing quickly looked at the little Lolita and saw her standing in a corner not knowing what she was thinking. He lowered his voice and whispered to his cousin: "I have a mission this year and I won't go back anywhere. I will call my great-grandmother and uncles again in the evening. "
"Originally I wanted to take you home to celebrate the holidays together. Since you have a job, I won't embarrass you. When we brothers and sisters meet again on National Day, please take care of your health. I'm leaving. "He Panpan didn't ask about the mission or why he came to Panjiayuan. This younger brother has a mysterious job and we can't inquire about him.
"Well, see you on National Day. "Yan Xing doesn't keep his sister. His fifth sister is pregnant with the baby and shouldn't be too tired. Judging from the looks of them, they probably ran around early in the morning. It's time to rest at this time to avoid tiring the baby.
< br />Kong Xijing always listened to his fiancée. When she said it was time to leave, he took a step forward, put his arm around her waist, smiled at Young Master Yan, and walked away with his fiancée through the door.
Yan Xing watched his cousin and future cousin-in-law walk out of the store, walked quickly to Little Lolita, and found that her fair and sweet oval face was wrinkled, and asked in a low voice: "Little Lolita, why are you unhappy? ?"
"You still have a great-grandmother." He has a great-grandmother, but she doesn't even have a grandmother. She is jealous.
Yan Xing was slightly stunned and lowered his eyes: "Well, my great-grandma is still alive and loves me very much, but I don't dare to spend the holidays with my great-grandma. Every time I go, my great-grandma sees me. She will think of my grandmother and my mother who died young, and she will be sad."
There are many sufferings in the world, and one of the most miserable is to have white hair and black hair. The younger generation dies before the elders. For For elders, the pain is heartbreaking.
"Okay, then I won't be jealous of you." Le Yun, who was full of jealousy, thought that his mother died early and he only had his great-grandmother. In order not to make the old man sad, he did not dare to act coquettishly and get close to her. , it’s also quite bitter.
"Are you jealous of me because I have a grandma?" Yan Xing smiled. He thought he had made her wait too long, so he was sulking.
“Yeah, I don’t even know if I have a grandma, shouldn’t I be jealous of you?”
“Then I’m jealous of you too, you have a very good wife. Grandparents, and a great and good father." Regarding his grandparents and father, he could only laugh.
"Yes, that's even. You have a grandma who loves you, and I'm your father. No one is worse than the other."
"If it's not even, then What will you do?"
"The portion of dinner will be deducted, and all vegetables and meats will be deducted. I will only treat you to dry noodles." Le Yun announced her decision boldly with her nostrils turned upward.
"...Then, shall we learn more now?" Yan Xing's whole body was in a bad state. He was just a little bit short of losing his delicious food. It was so thrilling. ! The little loli threatens to eat whenever she disagrees. This is not good, very bad.
"Okay, let's go and gain knowledge." Le Yun's little emotion disappeared, and she was in a good mood. She let go and ran to the stone dissolving machine to gain knowledge.
The store is very wide, about more than 200 square meters, and is separated from other stores by thick boards like mobile board houses. There are wooden shelves next to the board walls, and small jade stones are placed there. Wool or semi-wool materials, large pieces of materials are stacked on the ground, and some medium-sized materials are placed on wooden shelves.
The stone-breaking machine is placed in a corner. If you buy stones in our store, we will provide free stone-breaking services. If you bring stones from other places, there will be a handling fee.
There were many people in the store. Mr. Yan put on his sunglasses again and ran with little Lolita to see other people’s stones. There were more than a dozen people gathered there, and a young man in his thirties was holding a fist.A stone with a large head is cut on a grinder.
Several of the onlookers were holding stones waiting to be cut, and some were just looking to see if others could find good materials.
The litholytic machine was roaring, the stones were rubbing against the machine and making a grinding sound. Lime powder and sparks were flying everywhere, but the onlookers looked excited and expectant.
It is the customer who cuts the stone. The clerk stands aside and puts some cut stones in the corner. These are scraps from gambling and useless scraps cut from large pieces.
Le Yun opened her beautiful almond-shaped eyes and eagerly waited for the result. She analyzed it and found that the stone in the uncle's hand had a green halo. The color was not very bright, but it was representative. The soft light of Reiki.
She is now waiting to see how much it will be worth after it is cut out, and then secretly compares it to see which type of stone is more profitable.
The young man cut it, wiped the surface with a wet cloth, ground it again, wiped it with a wet cloth several times, made another cut, wiped off the dust, and laughed in surprise: “It’s gone up!”
“It’s green!”
“It’s gone up, it’s really gone up.”
Several people onlookers said: Look, the stone in the young man's hand has a face cut out, revealing two green spots as big as fingernails. If the jadeite is green, your status will rise. If it is green, no matter what, the chance of losing money is very small.
“It’s gone up a lot.”
“Young man, do you want to take action? I’ll give you ten thousand.”
“Twelve thousand.”
"...Fifteen thousand."
The onlookers screamed, someone wanted to buy it immediately. Anyone who knows the goods knows that it can be judged by the green color, like dark green or dark green, dark green The ingredients are larger.
Yan Xing glanced at the stone, withdrew his gaze and looked at the little Lolita. Her eyes were shining brightly. She looked at others as if she had found a treasure herself, and a smile bloomed on her round face. Beautiful flowers.
Uh!
That discovery made him particularly speechless. It belonged to someone else. Why was little Loli so happy? Even if she wanted to be with Yourong Xiang, it should be someone she knew. For example, if his bet went up, it would make sense for her to be happy for him.
The young man took the stone and negotiated the price with the person who was interested in buying it. He bought it for 20,000 yuan. He started with 1,000 yuan and sold it for 20,000 yuan, which was an increase of only twenty times.
The young man took off the stone and went to pick wool happily. When the machine was empty, the onlookers went up to unpick the stone, and they were full of expectations to find something green.
Seeing that the transaction was successful, Le Yun turned around and ran towards the pile of stones. The green part of the young uncle’s stone was about the size of an egg., so a small piece is worth 20,000, then how much is it worth if it is bigger?
That stone has a very weak aura and a dim green halo. If the stone has a stronger aura and a brighter light, its value will definitely be doubled.
Money, stones with beautiful auras are money!
Now, in Le Yun's eyes, those stones are banknotes. With lots of banknotes, she must quickly grab the stones with the strongest aura.
The little Loli ran away excitedly. Yan Xing raised the corners of his lips slightly and followed quickly. The little Loli's hands were probably itchy. Her smile was very sweet, and she knew both men and women were killing each other. Is her luck as invincible as her smile?
Mr. Le Xiaoxiao stepped on a skateboard with wheels and ran to the stone area where the wooden shelf was placed. He pulled out a piece of wool from the pile of stones, held it aside, and took a flashlight to shine. Look, he looks a bit like an expert.
When Young Master Yan arrived, the stone that little Loli held out was clearly marked, weighing three pounds, sixty-seven pounds, and the stones on the wooden shelf were all clearly marked with prices, 5,000 yuan per pound.
Three kilograms sixty-seven pounds, five thousand one kilogram, that’s 18,350 yuan.
It’s so expensive!
Yan Xing, who was admiring the little lolita's appreciation, the first thought that came to his mind was that it was too expensive. The stone cost five thousand one kilogram, so why not rob a bank.
Turning over and over, turning over and over, taking photos of the stone again and again, Le Yun picked up the stone and put it in her arms, like a pony, running away again with high morale.
Little Loli won’t decide to buy it, right?
The little loli grabbed the stone and ran away. Yan Xing was a little dumbfounded. Don’t tell him that the little loli really wanted to buy that kind of stone. The first time she tried it, she smashed nearly 20,000 yuan. She She doesn't feel bad, he helps her feel bad about money.
The little girl looked here, touched there, wandered around, like a monkey descending a mountain, seeing everything strange.
Mr. Yan, who was accompanying her, followed her silently. When she finally stopped in one place, he followed the little loli's gaze and looked over, almost kneeling. The price was 10,000 yuan. catty!
Just now it was 5,000 yuan per catty, and now it is 11,000 yuan per catty. That is what the old proverb says: "A dwarf goes up the stairs - he rises higher and higher step by step."
Yan Xing, whose heart couldn't bear it, tried hard to resist the urge to take her away, and waited to see if she had the guts to really buy the 11,000-kilogram stone.
Le Yun stared at the long row of stones, her brows almost knotted, so expensive! Ten thousand per catty is simply too scary, isn't it? It's not said that Panjiayuan's wool is very cheap, why is it so expensive? She suspected that the news she checked was all fake.
Looking at the stone you like again, oh, it weighs fourteen pounds and five liang, so that’s 145,400 yuan.
What an astronomical figure!
Calculating the price, Le Yun was heartbroken because she had no money! The total money she has in total is only around 100,000 yuan, which is not enough at all. Besides, she can't put all her belongings on it at once. She always has to leave some money for emergencies, not to mention the distance, the nearest one, the military training class The boys were very kind to her, and she would always treat them to a meal to show her affection.
No money, poor people, so miserable!
Being tormented by poverty to the point of bursting into tears, Mr. Le Xiao’s student felt cold both physically and mentally. He gave up and was reluctant to part with it. That stone has such a strong aura. The place with the strongest aura in the entire Jade District is this store. In this store The stone with the strongest aura is the one that weighs fourteen pounds.
The halo of the piece of wool itself is still green, many times brighter than the halo of the previous stone worth 20,000 yuan. The color is bright and sunny, watery, and full of vitality.
That stone had stronger aura and more beautiful color than the one she held in her hand. If she missed it, she would not be happy in her dreams.
While he was struggling, several people came over, and the flashlight was pointed at the pile of stones. In order to avoid the day when she would not regret it, Le Yun quickly stretched out her jade arms, picked up the stones, and took advantage of them first. own.
There are unwritten rules in antique jade trading. You cannot take something from other people’s hands or something that others are appreciating. Therefore, as long as she is still appreciating it, others who want to observe it have to wait until she lets go. Take action.
Seizing the stone, Le Yun blinked her watery eyes, arched her eyebrows, put on the sweetest smile, and smiled at the handsome guy next to her: "Handsome guy, can you lend me some money to help me with emergencies? ”
!
Is this little loli really planning to buy that kind of sky-high price stone?
Yan Xing wanted to persuade her not to waste money, but when he looked at the smiling little Lolita, facing that sweet smile and those sparkling beautiful eyes, he was stunned. Be careful, if he refuses, the little loli will definitely feel sad.
He didn’t want to see her sad face. Just like when he was talking to his cousin before, he looked back and saw the little loli’s little face twisting into a ball. Her sullen look made people feel distressed. The little loli was most pleasing to the eye when she smiled. .
Reluctant to let the little Loli lose her smile, he asked for confirmation: "Do you want to buy that stone?" Water drifts.
"Yeah." Le Yun nodded affirmatively: "Handsome guy, you lend me money for an emergency. If it goes up, I'll treat you to dinner. If you lose, I'll ask Brother Chao to help me pay you back first. Or use food to pay debts."
Using food to pay debts?
Yan Xing's eyes lit up and he couldn't hide his joy: "If you don't make money, you agree to pay off the debt with food, and I will lend you money, and you can get it immediately within one million."
He has no shortage of money.
He doesn’t spend money randomly, which doesn’t mean he has no money. He lacks the love of his father and his mother, and lacks a happy home with parents. The only thing he lacks most is money. If the little Lolita is willing to pay off her debt with food and lend hundreds of thousands, then it can at least cover her food expenses for a year. This business is a good deal.
Mr. Yan’s heart was filled with flowers and his eyes were full of colors. He didn’t want the little Lolita to pay back the money, but wanted to pay off the debt with rice.
"Okay, if you pay, you can use food to pay off the debt, or use medicinal materials to pay off the debt." Le Yun grinned. Others would pay, but she would definitely not pay. At least she could keep her capital.
"It's a deal. I'll help you hold one. Is there anyone else you don't like?" Yan Xing was so happy that he helped hold the heaviest stone with quick eyesight and quick hands.
If you are willing to pay your debt with rice, you can buy it, little lolita! No matter how much he buys, he will help her pay for it in advance. It is best to buy a few million, and he can eat and drink from the little Loli openly and rely on her for ten or eight years.
Thinking of being able to live a life of good food and drink at Little Lolita’s house, Young Master Yan was very excited. Buy it, buy it, buy more stones, slowly cut them and play with them, just think of it as a long-term experience. alright.
"Well, I'll take another look." Le Yun was so happy that her eyebrows turned into crescents, she picked up the light stone, like a rooster after a successful fight, and took a majestic step. Sliding around in all directions.
Yan Xing: "..." The little loli's childish nature has emerged again. This little girl is even better than a peacock. Who did she learn it from?
The little girl is obviously a soft and cute child. She is imitating adults. She walks steadily, like a professional, and studies here and there for a while, then touches a corner. There was a stone as big as a fist of a three- or four-year-old child, and then he missed the target and went to check out together.
The shop owner collects the money himself. He looks to be about fifty or sixty years old, slightly bald, with a beer belly and a big smile. He is as friendly and polite to everyone as he is to a wealthy man.
In the past, only cash was used for jade transactions, but now you can use cash, bank transfer, or mobile banking transfer. Even the elderly can understand the new checkout methods as long as they have the money.
Mr. Yan’s mobile banking transfer costs 18,350 yuan per stone and 145,400 yuan per stone, totaling 163,750 yuan.
That stone, which was as big as a child’s palm, was priced at five hundred yuan, regardless of weight or piece. When the boss saw that the two men had chosen two stones with a total price of more than hundreds of thousands, he couldn’t resist the price. The sweet and lovely smiling face of the little girl, bigWith a wave of his hand, he thought he was holding the head, giving it to the little girl to play with.
After paying the bill, the boss took a big seal and stamped a big blue seal on the stone mark to prove that the payment has been made. You can cut it and play with it, or you can take it away. Or you can go shopping and pick a stone and then pay the bill without getting confused. The purpose of marking is to avoid repeated payment.
"Do you want to cut it?" The boss was also very interested. The little girl looked like a junior high school student, and her smile was so bright that he couldn't help but want to join in the fun.
"Yes. Cut this into smaller pieces." Le Yun nodded with a smile and asked the boss for two big bags to pack the larger piece of wool.
“Why not cut into big ones?”
“If I cut out the big ones, if I lose money, I’m afraid I’ll be desperate. I’ll cut into small pieces, even if I lose money, I still have reasons to comfort myself and say that the big ones will definitely go up."
"Oh, it's okay, it's a small gamble." The boss wiped his sweat. If the little girl really cried bitterly on the spot, she would probably be frightened. There are a lot of people, so, uh, just cut it into small pieces and take a look.
Yan Xing helped the little Loli pack the stone, stuffed it into his backpack without saying a word, and helped her keep it. Even though the little Loli had strange powers, he still felt that such a heavy thing should not be Let the girl carry it.
The boss hired a clerk and asked him to guard the cashier. If someone came to pay the bill, he would collect the cash. He helped the little girl hold the stone to be cut, and happily went straight to the stone. machine.
People came and went, and the machine for dissolving stones was rarely idle. When the shop owner arrived with people, there were still a few people watching the process of dissolving stones. Although there was green light before, there were still people behind. Didn't solve the big rising stone.
There were two stone cutting machines. The bald boss carried the stone to the big machine and asked the little girl where to cut it. Based on his experience, he knew where to cut it, but it was the customer's. , he had to ask.
Le Yun ran to the stone, took the marker from the clerk, and drew a line on the stone with a big stroke.
The boss took a look and said, oh, the little girl is really willing to cut it off from the line she drew, which is equivalent to cutting off a corner. If the material has greatly increased, a small piece of the edge will be lost. .
The customer is God, what God says is right, God’s decision is right, the boss decides to listen to the customer God, and he will cut where the little girl said.
The shop owner brought a large stone to be cut. The lady who originally asked the shop assistant to cut the stone also stopped and allowed her to observe other people's stones first to gain some confidence. After all, she cut two stones. All the money was lost.
After the stone is stuck, the shopkeeper controls the machine. The blade gnashes the meat of the stone, and cuts along the line. Cut a few centimeters, pause, splash water to cool down, wash away the powder, and then cut again. Cut a few centimeters. centimeters and then the temperature drops continuously.After warming it four times, there was a click and a corner of the stone fell.
Several people looked at the cut surface. The surface of the dropped corner was close to the ground. There was no color visible. There was a faint glow of beautiful gemstones on the cut surface of the main stone.
People who looked down and watched shouted:
"Look, there seems to be color!"
"It feels like it has risen."
