Earth Cultivator

Chapter 126
Although the Pingchuan Jade and Jade Trading Market is nominally owned by the Pingchuan City Government, it is actually managed by the owners of major mines and wealthy jewelry merchants from all over the country. payment only.

Every year, a large number of rough jadeite stones are bought by jewelers from all over the trading market, but these rough jadeite stones only account for one-third of the rough stones mined in the Pingchuan Mountains every year.The remaining two-thirds of the quantity have long been reserved by various powerful jewelry merchants.

However, in order to maximize their own interests, those mine owners who are worth billions of dollars will hoard a batch of good-performing rough stones in advance every year when mining jadeite rough stones, and then wait until the emerald stones held every three years. Take it out for auction again at the auction, and the proceeds are much more than selling it on the market!

In this regard, those wealthy jewelry merchants had no choice but to spend a lot of money to compete for those precious rough jadeite.After all, the entire jadeite market is so big, if you don't fight, your market share will of course be robbed.

The Liao family can be regarded as one of the best jewelry families in the southeast region, so their seats are indispensable in the Pingchuan Jade Auction held every three years.

But this year, with the batch of emerald materials provided by Fang Yufan, the Liao family was able to laugh at the lively scene of those competitors getting red-faced and even rolling up their sleeves to stage a full-scale martial arts with an attitude of watching the fire from the other side.

"Second uncle, take us to see it!" Liao Kai blinked his small eyes and begged Liao Xinghong.

"If I bring the two of you with me." Liao Xinghong looked at Zhang Keji ponderingly.The latter shook his head and said, "Lao Yuan and I won't go this year. Anyway, with the materials provided by Fang Shao, the supply of goods in the store can fully guarantee the supply for the next three years."

Liao Xinghong heard the words and explained to Fang Yufan: "This jadeite auction is held every three years. Due to the requirements of the organizer, each merchant participating in the auction can only have three people at most. In the past, in Yuxuanzhai, I and Lao Zhang There was another master who went there. Hehe, but with this batch of materials this year, we don’t have to rush to send money to those black-hearted mine owners!”

Fang Yufan curled his lips secretly when he heard the words.A piece of ordinary low-grade jadeite material can be sold for several times or even dozens of times the price after careful processing. Who is the most unscrupulous?

"Second Uncle, when will this auction be held?" Liao Kai patted his round stomach and said with a bitter face, "Don't be now! My stomach has already started to rebel!"

"Don't worry, the auction will be held at seven o'clock in the evening. Let's go eat something first! I'm hungry too!" Liao Xinghong also patted his round stomach and said.

Seeing the almost identical movements of the two uncles and nephews, Fang Yufan had black lines all over his head.This is the reason why the daring little fat man patted his stomach!But when it came to eating, Fang Yufan felt his stomach twitch.

Damn, it stands to reason that I am a cultivator at the early stage of heart-beating, and the bigu period has passed. I should be able to swallow the aura of heaven and earth on my own without eating whole grains!How can there be a feeling of being hungry?Fang Yufan wondered secretly.

Instead, when I think of the current earth, where does the aura of heaven and earth come from for myself to absorb?Fang Yufan immediately recognized the reality.But like those secular foods that have no aura at all, he would not eat them to death!

But when he thinks that there are still a small amount of spirit stones and a lot of jade crystals in the storage space for him to absorb spirit energy.Fang Yufan then calmed down again.

After declining Liao Xinghong's kind invitation, Fang Yufan walked alone on the spacious street outside Yuxuanzhai.

Fang Yufan had seen the layout of the entire trading market on the stone sign at the entrance of the trading market before, and found that the trading market was like an oval egg.Area 1 where he and Liao Kai conducted a frenzied sweep yesterday can be regarded as the white area of ​​the egg in the trading market, area 2 is the yolk area, and area 3 is the center of the egg yolk.

The place where Fang Yufan is standing now is the second area of ​​the egg yolk area.

The number of shops on both sides of the street is obviously much less than that in District 1, but the quality of the rough jadeite inside is much higher.In the few shops that Fang Yufan passed just now, he found several rough emerald stones with a very good emerald color. After a few glances, he turned and left.

On both sides of the neatly paved street, people with rough emerald stones walked in and out from time to time.However, compared to the tourists who bought and gambled in District 1, the people who bought rough stones in District 2 were rich people with a lot of money in their families, and some small and medium-sized jewelry merchants.

The high sky is densely covered with a layer of gray-white thick clouds. While blocking the sun, it still can't lower the temperature in the hearts of those who come here with the purpose of making a fortune in the trading market.

After casually looking at the rough emerald stones in the shops on both sides of the street for a long time, Fang Yufan suddenly stopped at a crossroad.This is the intersection between District 1 and District 2, and the flow of people is even more crowded.

In the aisle on the corner of the street near the intersection, there is a small stall selling rough jadeite. A half-year-old boy who looks no more than thirteen or fourteen years old is sitting on a ponytail and staring blankly at the passing people. pedestrian.

Fang Yufan was very surprised, how could the market management allow a child to set up a stall here.

After looking up and scanning the crowded streets, Fang Yufan walked towards the boy's stall.

"Big brother, do you want to buy rough stones?" Seeing someone standing in front of him, the boy raised his head and asked timidly.

Kneeling down and seeing the young man looking at him with great expectation on his face, Fang Yufan smiled, and after looking down at the rough jadeite stones placed on a black felt cloth, he stretched out his right hand and touched them. The boy's head opened his mouth and asked, "How do you sell these rough stones?"

Hearing the words, the young man replied with vigor: "Big brother, my father bought these directly from the mine before. These three dark brown rough stones cost 6 thousand each, and these two gray-brown rough stones cost 4 yuan each. [-], big brother, buy one piece!"

"Where is your lord? Why are you allowed to set up a stall here alone?" Fang Yufan asked in harmony as he withdrew his right hand and inserted a bunch of true knowledge into the five rough emerald stones one by one.

The boy replied sullenly with a slightly melancholy expression: "Dad is sick, and Mom has left me and Dad. In order to raise money for Dad to see a doctor, I begged Uncle Lan for several days before he agreed to let me set up a stall here Make money!"

Looking at the faint sadness flashing in the young man's eyes, Fang Yufan quickly judged that this was not a fabricated story intended to deceive others by gaining sympathy from others.

After sighing softly in his heart, Fang Yufan pointed to the five rough stones and said, "I bought all these rough stones, the total is 2, right. Do you want cash or transfer?"

Unexpectedly, when the young man heard Fang Yufan say that he would buy all five rough stones, even though his eyes showed that he was very willing to sell them, he still shook his head firmly and said, "Big brother, if you like which one Just buy which one! Dad said, business is business, and you can’t mix it with other things.”

"Oh, that's what your father said?" Hearing the words from the boy's mouth, although Fang Yufan didn't quite agree with him, he still respected his meaning. He chose a rough stone with dark brown skin and pretended to take it out of his pocket. A stack of red notes came out.

"Take the money away!" Fang Yufan instructed as he stretched out his hand and patted the young man's shoulder.The young man smiled and nodded: "Big brother, don't worry, I grew up here since I was a child, and I know all the shop owners here. Goodbye, big brother!"

After leaving the boy, Fang Yufan turned and walked away.Seeing that it was still early, with the intention of killing time, he walked into a shop that seemed to be in good business.

Perhaps because of the naturalness of habit, Fang Yufan released his real knowledge as soon as he entered the store, and then he walked to a row of shelves and took out a rough emerald stone that was half the size of a fist.

"How much is this, boss?" He raised his head and asked the shop owner who was busy greeting other customers. Fang Yufan frowned slightly when he saw Gu Bo talking to the shop owner with a piece of rough jadeite in his hand. I frowned.

Damn, why did I meet this guy again!In his heart, Fang Yufan was secretly unlucky.

As soon as Gu Bo saw Fang Yufan, his eyes opened slightly angrily.Immediately, after glancing at the beautiful companion beside him, he rolled his eyes and followed the shop owner.

"Little brother has a good eye. This rough stone is an authentic old pit species. You can take 76 yuan." The shop owner is a middle-aged man with a big beard. After he glanced at the rough stone in Fang Yufan's hand, , simply put.

"76?" Fang Yufan was quite surprised when he heard this.Although there is a piece of green jade the size of a goose egg inside, it costs more than 70 yuan per mouth. If ordinary people would dare to buy it?
"Cut, think it's expensive?" Gu Bo raised his head slightly, glanced sideways at Fang Yufan and said with a cold snort, "You should go to District 1 and continue shopping, the rough stones there are still very cheap."

After coldly looking at Gu Bo who pretended to be superior, Fang Yufan suppressed the sudden urge to slap this guy away.

"Then how much is this one?" Fang Yufan continued to ask as he put down the rough stone in his hand and picked up another one.

"This one, 38 yuan." Probably seeing that Fang Yufan didn't particularly want to buy rough stones, the shop owner casually glanced at them and replied.

Khan, why are the prices of rough stones in District 2 so high!Fang Yufan sighed secretly.However, the chance of getting green is several percent higher than that of District 1!

Putting down the rough stone in his hand, Fang Yufan planned to leave.Although there are a few pieces of emeralds in this store, it is quite good, but he just unraveled a lot of emerald materials, and he does not want to buy rough stones for the time being.

"Some people are like this. They don't have much money in their bags, but they still put on a show." Gu Bo looked at Fang Yufan with a proud face, and turned towards a hot and light makeup beauty beside him Said.

Fang Yufan stopped when he heard the words and was about to walk out of the shop.

You messed with me!A wave of scorching flames quickly burned in Fang Yufan's pupils.Don't forget, he is now a cultivator in the heart-beating stage, not the mid-spiritual stage cultivator who was similar to having no desires and desires.
