The reborn peasant girl has space for farming

Chapter 909 Fish and Dragons Mixed in the Jade Field

The jade market in HT City is extremely lively. It not only sells jade, but also sells various sundries, fruits and vegetables. Various small stalls are mixed together, giving you a feeling of shopping for goods.

Bai Meixi liked this kind of market the most. She took out two camels from the space, took some vegetables and tomatoes and piled them in the basket, pretending to be a woman who came to the market.

The jade here includes full-stone, half-stone, unblocked jade raw materials, and various carved finished products. The sizes of the stalls are also different. The small stalls only have three or five items, while the larger ones have more than a dozen items. Baskets, various stones and scraps were piled together, as if what they bought was not jade, but stones for building houses.

However, the prices of these jade stones are not cheap, which makes Bai Meixi feel that in modern society, all money is as worthless as pieces of paper. The number she casually mentioned was just a few hundred yuan.

Several businessmen from other places were also visiting the market. After seeing the rough jade stones, they were also asking for prices, but every time after asking, the two of them would murmur that they didn't have enough money.

"Why is this stone so expensive? I think it's average. You can make it cheaper. We bought more."

The few foreign businessmen were unwilling to give in and wanted to bargain in the usual way of buying things.

The result was not ideal. Not only did they fail to buy anything, they were also ridiculed by the people around them.

"This is a raw jade stone. It is full of serious jade materials. Take this inconspicuous stone as an example. If it turns out to be mutton-fat jade, it will be worth thousands of times. If it is made into an ornament, it will at least be as good as that stone. It’s almost like jade cabbage.”

The stall owner picked up an oval jade stone, waved it in front of the foreign merchants, and pointed to the jade cabbage on the stall next to it.

The foreign businessmen hesitated as expected. They kept their eyes fixed on the jade cabbage, wishing they had such good luck and could gamble on such a large piece of mutton-fat jade.

Bai Meixi knew that these people were just outsiders. Even if it was a raw jade stone, it would not be full of jade material. What's more, the jade cabbage was of average quality and was not mutton-fat jade at all. Even if it was big, it would not be full of jade material. Not worth much.

"100 yuan a piece is the best price. You have to think about it. If you win the bet, it will be a family heirloom. It may not be worth thousands of yuan in the future. You just spent 100 yuan to buy it now. You are really making a lot of money."

The stall owner lobbied in front of these two people again, and Bai Meixi saw that the two people really paid for it and spent 100 yuan to buy a stone of average quality.

Bai Meixi felt that these two people had some financial strength, and they might be able to introduce a good business to her in other matters. Taking advantage of lunch, Bai Meixi also walked to a paralyzed table and sat with these two foreign businessmen. on the adjacent table.

The two men already had two pieces of raw jade in their hands. They held flashlights and kept shining their light on the two rough stones, analyzing the textures on them from time to time.

"Brother, look at this place, there is a yellow mist floating out, maybe it is a piece of yellow jade. We will make a lot of money this time."

One of the middle-aged men was very excited. Various nouns came out of his mouth from time to time, and he seemed to be very professional.

In fact, the yellow luster was just reflected by the flashlight, not the color of the jade itself at all, and the two stones looked ordinary.

Bai Meixi carefully studied the book given by Professor Wang before coming to HT City. She knew that the best quality of real Hetian jade is the sub-material, which is formed by long-term erosion of water. The shape is like pebbles. The place where the little boy usually picks up stones is very It is possible to find out the material.The worst thing is the mountain material. The mountain material is large in size, but the possibility of producing good jade is extremely small. The fat white man is holding a piece of mountain material now.

"I don't dare to ask for so much. As long as I can make some money and pay back the money I owe, it will be fine. If the superiors don't find out, they will definitely fire me."

Another middle-aged man, who is fairer and fatter, has a worried face. He came out to bet on stones this time to repay long-overdue public funds. No wonder he was so generous when he made the move. He took out 200 yuan as soon as he was told. It turned out that I want to make a comeback by gambling on stone.

After hearing this for a while, Bai Meixi felt bad. Paying off debts through gambling was the most taboo. Even if the chance of winning the bet was very slim, what's more, that professional-looking man looked like a stooge and might turn around. You have to split it [-]-[-] with the stall owner.

"Actually, whether there is jade or not, the best way to see if there is jade is to decode the stone. I think there are people over there who can decode the jade. There are also a few merchants waiting nearby. If there is indeed jade inside, you can exchange money now."

Bai Meixi has just noticed that there are craftsmen here who are responsible for unraveling the stone. Once the rough stone is in their hands, they can see it clearly within a few minutes.

This also makes people nearby who like to sell jade wait at the place where the jade is being dissected, and take pictures of the good stuff as soon as they see it, which has become the fastest way to make money.

When the fat white man heard that it could be realized immediately, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes. His body had left the chair and tilted towards Bai Meixi's position, obviously wanting to come over to find out about Jie Shi.

But before he could take a step forward, the professional man pushed him back to his seat.

"What do you know? What's the point of dissecting the stone here? The selling price is also low. It's better to take it to the city and dissect the stone and sell it for two or three times the price."

When the professional man heard Bai Meixi's proposal to unwrap the stone, he immediately stopped him. He was deceiving and abducting him here. Once he sent the fat and white man away, he could share the money directly with the stall owner. But if he unwound the stone in public, there would be nothing inside. , there will inevitably be conflicts, and it will be difficult for him to escape intact.

"Pu Hai is under strict investigation now. Which big city do you want to sell it to? If you want to make money from the jade purchased here, you have to hold it in your hands for several years. Only people with spare money play it. He is so anxious. Even if the person who repays the debt really fires Yushi, he won’t make any money at all.”

Bai Meixi wanted to ask this fat man to remove the stone if things got into trouble now, and maybe he could recover some of the losses.

"Of course people like you who have no connections say so. Do you know what we are playing? It's collecting. People like us naturally have our own connections. How can you compare?"

The professional man pulled out a lot of nouns. Looking at Bai Meixi's clothes, he thought she was just a rural woman who married nearby and had nothing to be afraid of. In order to prevent Bai Meixi from getting into trouble again and ruining his business. , he immediately pulled the fat man away.

"Brother, don't let her disturb our interest. Let's go back to the city and find a good place to continue eating."

The professional man was about to succeed, but the fat and white man looked at the stone in his hand, suddenly turned around and walked to Bai Meixi's side.

"I want to unlock the stone."
