Chapter 112 The Treasure of the Town Hall
As the sun rises higher and higher in the sky, the Pingchuan jadeite trading market becomes more and more lively.

In a shop not far from the entrance of the market, Fang Yufan held a piece of rough jadeite about the size of his fist in his hand and tilted his head slightly to look at the shop owner.

"How can this be!" The shop owner said with a smile, "If this piece of rough stone was the treasure of the store, I wouldn't just put it there! Okay, if the little brother chooses, um, this one is also For the rough emerald stone in Laokeng, let me give you 2."

"2?" Liao Kai went up to the boss and glanced at the unattractive rough jadeite, then turned his head and shouted contemptuously at the shop owner, "Boss, you must be honest in doing business! This piece is not so much a rough jadeite as it is You said it was a rotten stone that fell on the ground and no one picked it up! How dare you charge 6? I really thought the two of us were clubs! Besides, if you said it was the old jadeite rough, it was from the old pit? "

Damn, rotten stone?Is my vision that bad?Fang Yufan couldn't help rolling his eyes when he heard what Liao Kai said.However, he also knew that the little fat man was just lowering the price, so he stood aside and did not speak with the intention of watching the excitement.

"This fat brother, you can't say that!" The shop owner became anxious, "I have always been innocent in my business! This rough stone is indeed from the old pit. If I deceive you, Just let me let me go out and get hit by a car! But the price can still be negotiated!" The reason why the shop owner compromised a little at the end was because he really couldn't remember when this rough stone was. It was put in the store, and looking at the appearance, it really does not give people confidence!
When Liao Kai heard the words, he calculated with his mouth up and down: "5 plus 8, the total is 2, right? Boss, you just said that you would give us a 6% discount, that is 8. Boss, We don’t want to bargain with you anymore, the whole number is 4, if you agree, we’ll make a price immediately, if you don’t agree, hmph, the most indispensable thing in this trading market is rough jadeite! Let’s put down the rough stone and turn around and leave immediately!”

"Little brother is really good." The shop owner looked at Liao Kai with a embarrassed expression and said half a sentence.After a while, he gritted his teeth and said bluntly: "I have eyes with the two little brothers, and the deal is done! 7 is 7!"

The little fat man said with a displeased expression: "Boss, just have fun! I'm afraid you have to earn this amount for these two rough stones?" It shook a few times.

"Hehe, you can't earn that much in a small business!" The shop owner said with a slightly changed face.However, he also murmured in his heart: what is the origin of this little fat man?How come he also knows about my profit?Could it be that other shops came to test the water?But it's not like it!
While the store owner was full of doubts, both parties swiped their cards to check out and took the stones to leave, but it was over soon.

"Two little brothers, go slowly!" The shop owner stood in the middle of the shop and called out politely.

"Boss, what do you think of my rough emerald stone?" Liao Kai took out the rough stone he selected from the small bag in his hand while walking and handed it to Fang Yufan and asked.

After receiving the original stone, Fang Yufan looked up at it. From the corner of his eye, he saw a pair of small eyes of the little fat man looking at him with incomparable eagerness. His heart moved slightly, and then he rolled out a bundle of true knowledge and poked it into the original stone. internal.

After a while, "You have a good eye! This rough stone is very good! Hey, why is it like this?" Fang Yufan first praised sincerely.Liao Kai immediately beamed with joy when he heard this.Then Fang Yufan muttered something again in a low voice, but the little fat man, who was immersed in the joy that his vision was really good, didn't hear it.

"Hey, boss, I have always had a good eye! As soon as I saw the scar on the surface of this rough stone, I fell in love with it!" He happily took the rough jadeite handed over by Fang Yufan, and the fat man pointed at it A scar with a strange shape on it raised his eyebrows and said, "Boss, do you think this scar looks like a tiger howling up to the sky?"

Fang Yufan turned his head and looked at Liao Kai with a strange face when he heard the words, and asked, "You bought this rough jadeite just because this lump of tinea looks like a tiger?" Liao Kai Hao Ran replied: "Those The rough stones all look similar, so I can only choose this slightly different rough stone!"

After a moment of silence, Fang Yufan said: "Now I finally understand why your parents don't want to bring you to the jade and jade trading market!" Eyebrow.

"Put away your expression for me!" Fang Yufan shouted in a deep voice, shrugging his eyebrows.After a while, he looked up again at the crowded scene in front of him and asked, "Should we go and untie these two stones first, or go to the exhibition hall to have a look?"

With a bitter face, he stood on tiptoe and looked around the turbulent flow of people, Liao Kaiping replied, "Let's go to the exhibition hall first! This is the time when there are the most tourists, so if you don't get all of them, you want to try your luck." Some people bought a rough stone and went to the stone breaker.”

Fang Yufan was quite surprised when he heard what Liao Kai said.He originally thought that Liao Kaihui would yell and dance to explain the stone first. After all, who doesn't want to know as soon as possible whether there is precious jadeite worth tens of millions in the rough stone he bought.If I didn't already know what's going on inside the rough stone, I'm afraid I'd go to untie it first to have a look!
But after thinking about what Liao Kai's family does, Fang Yufan's heart is clear again.A rich man who wears blood jade that is worth over a million dollars, would he care what is in one or two rough jadeites that he just bought in a shop?Besides, in the little fat man's heart, he also decided that the rough jadeite he chose might not be very promising, right?
It seems that the environment really determines the mentality!After secretly sighing in his heart, Fang Yufan strode towards the exhibition hall.

Following the guidance of the street signs, Fang Yufan and Liao Kai walked through a circular arc-shaped square covered with large and small cyan jade slabs, and then a 18-meter-high, dark gray, Looking at the artificial building that looked like a super huge emerald rough stone, they immediately jumped into the eyes of the two of them.

This is the Pingchuan Jade and Jade Exhibition Hall, a landmark building in the ancient city of Pingchuan!It has three floors and covers an area of ​​1300 square meters. There are countless exquisite jewelry carved from precious jade and jade worth hundreds of millions.

A ray of golden sunlight suddenly shone down from the sky, and then a hazy and charming luster immediately spread on the surface of the building of unknown material outside the exhibition hall!
The golden shining stone is another great beauty of the ancient city of Pingchuan.

"Boss, if this is really a piece of rough emerald, then the value is probably tens of billions!" Liao Kaiwei, whose eyes were shining brightly, opened his mouth slightly and looked at the huge building in front of him and sighed.

Fang Yufan cast an angry look at Liao Kai: "If it is true, someone must buy it! Well, stop daydreaming here, and go in and see what those precious works of art look like! "

After depositing the two rough stones at the entrance of the exhibition hall, Fang Yufan and Liao Kai walked into the exhibition hall with empty hands.

As soon as they stepped into the hall, the eyes of the two were caught by the dark brown boulder standing in the center of the hall.This is a rough emerald stone as big as a small hill with a height of 2.4 meters, a length of 5.1 meters, and a width of 6.3 meters. According to records, it has stood here since the day when the Pingchuan Jade and Jade Exhibition Hall was built.

There is no doubt that it is this huge jadeite rough that has witnessed the gradual development of Pingchuan from an obscure town to a nationally famous cultural ancient city!

"Is this the treasure of the exhibition hall?" Liao Kai approached the rough jadeite with two fat short legs and raised his head.An old man with gray beard and hair at the side turned his head to look at him a few times when he heard the words, and an inexplicable light flashed in his cloudy eyes.

In the wide hall, in addition to the huge jadeite stone standing in the center, there are also locked glass display cases randomly placed around, and dozens of men and women in tourist costumes are lingering in it one after another. In front of the showcases of exquisite works of art carved from emerald and jade, from time to time, the mouth whispered the sincere admiration from the heart.

Turning around and looking at the huge rough jadeite in front of him, which was no different from the fist-sized rough jadeite in the shops outside, Fang Yufan twitched his lips.And when he put a bundle of true knowledge into this rough jadeite, only to see lumps of jade flesh that was much lighter in color than the jadeite in the rough jade he bought just now, Fang Yufan turned his head and looked at Liao Kai said: "Let's go, there's nothing to see, it's just bigger."

"Boss, you can't say that!" Liao Kai expressed his disagreement, "An ordinary rough jadeite can be called a giant if it weighs four or five tons! But look at this piece, which is a full 26 tons. Hey! It can be called the Super Supreme Jumbo in the rough jadeite! No wonder it is regarded as the treasure of the exhibition hall!"

"This little chubby brother is only half right!" The white-haired old man who had glanced at Liao Kai walked up to the two of them with trembling steps and looked up at the low-pitched treasure of the town hall. Said, "This rough stone is not only placed here because of its huge size! Do you know that in the Pingchuan Mountains, there are not a few rough jadeite stones that are much larger than it."

"Grandpa, can you tell me why it became the treasure of the exhibition hall?" Liao Kai looked at the old man who was about the same age as his grandfather and asked respectfully.

"Hehe" the old man stroked his white beard under his jaw and said with a light smile, "Most of the reasons are because it was the largest rough jadeite that could be found when this exhibition hall was established! The large jadeite rough stones have only been excavated in recent years. Another part of the reason is that the quality of the jadeite flesh contained in this rough stone, although not as good as Yanglu, is not much worse!"

Blinking his small eyes, Liao Kai murmured: "Because it was the largest jadeite rough at that time, it was regarded as the treasure of the town hall? This is true"

"It's unexpected, isn't it?" the old man looked at Liao Kai with a smile on his face and said.

It was so unexpected.Looking at the little fat man's fat face with an expression of "How embarrassing is this!", Fang Yufan muttered to himself.
