What a blast!Boss, she is slapping her face like crazy again
Chapter 230 Betting on the Stone Market
"Home is very nice." Mr. Zhong said, "You have fun outside. But remember to turn on your phone! Otherwise we will be very worried if we can't find you."
"Grandpa, don't worry, I'm fine." Zhong Nianyao quickly assured, "I will keep my phone open 24 hours a day and I will never miss any calls."
"That's good."
Then Mr. Zhong asked, "By the way, Yaoyao, which friend are you going abroad with this time?"
He suddenly remembered that before Zhong Nianyao went out, they did not ask carefully for information about the friends who went out with her. It's a good time to ask now, so that if Zhong Nianyao can't be contacted by then, it's better to know who to contact.
After hearing Mr. Zhong's question, Zhong Nianyao stiffened for a moment, and then said naturally, "Grandpa, they are some of my good friends that you don't know."
Seemingly realizing what Mr. Zhong wanted to ask, Zhong Nianyao immediately changed the subject, "By the way, is grandma here? I want to talk to her so that she won't worry."
"Your grandma! She just went out to chat with her old sisters, and she hasn't come back yet!" Mr. Zhong's attention was successfully diverted, "Wait for her to come back later, and I'll ask her to call you back!"
"Okay." Zhong Nianyao said immediately, "Grandpa, I just came back from outside! I'm going to take a rest and go to eat."
"Then you should rest quickly!" Mr. Zhong said quickly, "Also, don't play too late!"
"Okay, grandpa, bye!"
After saying that, Zhong Nianyao quickly hung up the phone and let out a long sigh of relief.
Just now, she was really afraid that the old man would continue to ask her which friend she went out with. By then, she really didn't know how to answer.
After breakfast the next day, Lu Yichen took Zhong Nianyao to the largest rough stone market in Mandalay.
This time, only the two of them went together, and Uncle Li and the others did not go with them.
Too many things have happened in the past few days, and there is nothing going on at the jade vein, and preparations are now being made for mining. So Uncle Li has been keeping an eye on the mine, and everyone else has also helped there.
As soon as he entered, Zhong Nianyao saw large and small stone gambling shops, with large and small rough stones placed outside and inside the door. Those rough stones don't look much different from ordinary stones.
One knife makes you poor and the other makes you rich. This is something more risky than gambling, but it is always irresistible.
Here, people become rich every day because of a stone, and there are also people who become paupers because of a stone.
Zhong Nianyao looked at the various people inside and couldn't help but sigh, "Although the risk of stone gambling is very high, there are still people who are obsessed with it!"
"Betting on stones is much more exciting than gambling." Lu Yichen smiled lightly and said, "This place can realize people's dream of getting rich overnight. Naturally, many people who want to get something for nothing want to try their luck here."
"Luck is something that is both destined and can be changed the day after tomorrow." Zhong Nianyao raised her eyebrows and said, "Everyone's destiny is determined when they are born. But there is a saying that goes well, man can conquer nature. As long as you work hard, everything will be possible. Everything can still be changed." "However, the luck in gambling is innate and cannot be changed. It is the biggest joke to try to change your destiny by gambling on stones."
"You see clearly!" Lu Yichen joked with a smile, "But everyone knows the truth. But everyone must be lucky in their hearts, thinking that if they are the lucky ones!"
Zhong Nianyao smiled and shook her head, but said nothing more.
The two of them walked casually, not stopping at any store in particular, but just looking around. It didn't look like he was here to gamble on stones, but more like he was here for an outing.
Zhong Nianyao can sense the existence of spiritual energy, and she also has the eye of the sky, which is equivalent to a cheating device that allows her to see whether there is jade in the original stone.
However, since she was here to gamble on stones, she had no intention of cheating. Therefore, she did not open her eyes and feel the aura, but just looked at them casually to see if there was any connection between them.
While walking, Zhong Nianyao suddenly saw a lot of large and small stones scattered around the door of a shop, which looked a bit disorganized. She immediately spotted one of the stones that looked like an apple.
Now that she had taken a fancy to it, she naturally walked forward without any hesitation, picked up the stone, looked at Lu Yichen, then smiled and asked, "Lu Yichen, look, does this look like an apple? It looks really good.”
Lu Yichen felt a little funny about Zhong Nianyao's way of selecting rough stones, but he still cooperated, "It's very beautiful. If you like it, buy it!"
Zhong Nianyao walked directly into the shop and said, "Boss, how much does this rough stone cost?"
The boss glanced outside the door, then at the rough stone in Zhong Nianyao's hand, and said in a cold tone, "Those outside are all waste stones, no matter how big or small, they cost two thousand pieces each."
When he saw Lu Yichen and Zhong Nianyao staying outside just now, he was a little happy that an employer came to visit. He was still very discerning and could tell that both the man and the woman came from wealthy families. Therefore, he felt that big business should be coming this time.
Unexpectedly, this man actually fell in love with those waste rocks.
Those waste rocks are mainly some stones that look very bad, or some stones from the corners that have been cut off from other original stones.
These stones are almost all waste stones and cannot be used to produce jadeite. Of course, some people are lucky and can pick up a half-stone jadeite from these waste rocks. However, the probability of this is too small
Therefore, even if it is waste rock, it can be reused and make some money.
Zhong Nianyao didn't care too much about the boss's attitude. She immediately bought the strange-shaped stone she was holding.
After the money was transferred, Zhong Nianyao looked at Lu Yichen, weighed the stone in his hand, and then said, "Lu Yichen, why don't we find a place to unblock the stone first! I'm a little anxious to see if this can solve the problem. What kind of jade can you get?"
She did not cheat, but when she saw the stone, she felt very fond of it. Therefore, she felt that there should be something good in this stone.
