Chapter 165

Mo Liming glanced at it, and saw that the number on the check was 100 million, and his expression changed drastically. Although 100 million is not a lot to him now, it was just given to him by someone else to play with. Yes, it's like a red envelope given by an elder to his junior, the weight is so big.

What Uncle Biao said was right. Before coming here, Mo Liming only had tens of thousands of dollars with him, and he didn’t have a bank card at hand. If he wanted to go to Tengchong Jade Market to gamble on stones by himself, then such a small amount of money would be worth tens of millions. not enough.

"Uncle Biao, thank you. Just treat it as a temporary loan from you, and I will definitely pay you back in full!" Mo Liming thanked excitedly.

"Brother Mo, you are too polite." Uncle Biao shook his head and smiled, "You don't have to pay it back. What I intend to give you is for you, never return it!"

His tone was firm, and Mo Liming could tell that the other party was a man of his word. Since he had made up his mind, the water that was spilled on this matter could not be recovered.

Mo Liming didn't say anything more to make fun of himself. He stuffed the 100 million check into his pocket, and waited to go shopping on Emerald Street tomorrow.

For this meal, a large table was set up with delicious food and wine. It seemed that the cost was not small. A group of people drank and toasted. During the meal, Mo Liming also enjoyed the conversation and laughter. At the end of the drink, his face was hot and his mind was slightly weak. Halo, seems to be drunk.

After eating and drinking, Mo Liming returned to his room. That night he had a good sleep while drunk. When he got up the next day and asked Tang Yan to have breakfast, he found that there were only the two of them. I was alone, but Uncle Biao and the others didn't come to have breakfast for some reason.

"Miss Tang, where are Uncle Biao and the others?" Mo Liming couldn't help asking.

Tang Yan said with a smile, "They have other things to do today. Mo Liming, let's go out and play later. Apart from Yushi Street, there are many other interesting places in Tengchong."

"Okay." Mo Liming nodded cheerfully.

He also didn't ask why Uncle Biao went out, those things seemed to have nothing to do with him, and he didn't want to interfere too much.

After eating the high-quality breakfast, Mo Liming and Tang Yan walked out of the hotel together, ready to catch a car and rush to the lively place in the county town to play.

"Miss Tang, you should have been here before, right?"

On the way, Mo Liming asked suddenly.

Tang Yan nodded and said, "I've been here several times. I have acquaintances here. Mo Liming, where should we go first?"

"I don't know anything about the environment in Tengchong, and I don't know which side to go." Mo Liming smiled and said, "Miss Tang, you can introduce me. You have to be the tour guide today."

"OK, I know you like to gamble on jade, so let's go to the jade market." Tang Yan said with a smile on her face, "I don't guarantee that you can see good wool, but I can be sure that the jade market here is definitely better than ours. The one in T City is much bigger, with rich varieties and everything you need.”

"Oh, really?" Mo Liming looked excited, "Then let's go for a stroll and talk about it."

"Well, okay, let's go!" Tang Yan also said with great interest.

Then the two of them hailed a taxi on the side of the street and drove straight to the nearby jade market.

It didn't take long to hear Tang Yan's greeting and talk about the place, Mo Liming immediately reacted thoughtfully, and immediately followed Tang Yan out of the car.

"Miss Tang, which street is this?" Mo Liming asked.

Tang Yan told him: "There are several jadeite trading markets in Tengchong. The one I'll take you here first is 'Tengyue Emerald City'. You can tell by the signboard hanging high at the entrance."

"'Pengyue Emerald City'?" Mo Liming followed Tang Yan's direction and stared at the past. As expected, he saw the five dazzling golden characters on the majestic pillar stand.

Tang Yan said: "This place is the most concentrated place for jadeite trading in Tengchong. Mo Liming, it happens to be its morning market, and it is the busiest time of the day. Let's go in and have a look."

"Okay!" Mo Liming happily agreed.

After that, he and Tang Yan walked into the arch side by side.

Tengchong "Tengyue Emerald City" is a large-scale jadeite trading market displayed by the local government as the "No. [-] Emerald City".

Although it is not as prosperous as the jewelry markets in developed areas such as BJ, Shanghai, and Guangdong, it still has a constant flow of customers all day long, and its reputation is far-reaching.

Surrounding the Tengyue Emerald City, there are dozens of emerald jewelry shops, but those shopkeepers often take down the baffles at the door and open their doors to welcome customers after ten o'clock in the morning.

Every day, when the first ray of sunshine spreads in the courtyard of Emerald City, the first group of vendors, the first group of customers, the first bargaining, and the first transaction always start in the open space in the courtyard.

And Mo Liming and Tang Yan just happened to catch up with such a grand event. When they walked into the Emerald City, the huge venue was full of people, and there were two lines of stalls on both sides of the aisle. Mo Liming inserted into the crowd with the fast and active Tang Yan. middle.

Immediately Mo Liming discovered that among the goods peddled by retail investors who set up street stalls were all kinds of jadeite articles, new and old, which also contained some jade materials, but most of them were leftovers, the kind with a very low price .

Of course Mo Liming was most interested in woolen materials. Nine out of ten of the finished jadeite displayed at the stalls would not be good products, otherwise they wouldn't be able to wait until today's morning market.

The result was far from what Mo Liming wanted. When he used the "seven-eyed Buddha spirit" on his left eye to see through the jade stones that had not been unlocked, he basically swept them over without any trace of jadeite. If you think about it, those retail investors who set up street stalls are only doing small businesses, and they can't afford to bet on good-quality jade, otherwise they wouldn't be greedy to make such petty profits.

"Mo Liming, are we here early?" Tang Yan whispered in Mo Liming's ear, "Those big jadeite stores won't open until after ten o'clock."

"Oh, no." Mo Liming squinted his eyes, shook his head and said with a smile, "Let's just take a look at it casually. In fact, I don't want to buy jade, I only buy wool."

"Hey, then this place is not suitable for you. There is no large-scale wool supply point at all. I'm afraid you have to contact the relevant jade merchants." Tang Yan sighed with a look of disappointment.

Mo Liming comforted her and said: "Miss Tang, don't worry, take your time, these gambling stones can be met but not sought."

"That's true." With Mo Liming's words, Tang Yan turned to laugh and said, "Mo Liming, I have an idea. If you really want to take a big gamble, I have a very good one." I will introduce you to the place."

"Oh, what's that place?" Seeing Tang Yan's serious remarks, Mo Liming's interest immediately increased, and he couldn't wait to ask.

Tang Yan replied happily: "It's in Yangon, the old capital of Myanmar. It is said that the jadeite fair held there every year is an unprecedented event in jadeite gambling! Now that we have arrived at the extreme city of Tengchong, we have also come to Myanmar." The border, if you want to go to Yangon, it’s actually not far away.”

"Miss Tang, is it time for the jadeite auction?" Mo Liming asked back.

Tang Yan nodded quickly, and said, "That's right, now in May, it's just in time for their hottest period of public offerings in several seasons of the year!"

"But it's not easy for us to go, right? I haven't applied for a passport." Mo Liming frowned and said.

"Oh, really, what are you worried about about those little things?" Tang Yan giggled and said, "We can handle it for you. Mo Liming, I'll tell Uncle Biao later that we'll go to Yangzhou after finishing Meng Gong's business." Just participate in the jade fairs all over the world."

"Okay, thank you very much!" Hearing Tang Yan's serious assurance, Mo Liming was excited in his heart. If it is in Myanmar's largest local jadeite trading market, and it is during the public offering period, good jade materials will be sold. Under the special circumstances of all the nests coming out, then, if you can't bet on the green or glass-like transparent and colorless jadeite, then it is really a ghost.

"Why are you being polite? Since you're here, let's have fun!" Tang Yan said generously.

Then the two casually wandered around in the Emerald City. After those emerald jewelry stores opened, they also took the opportunity to visit various jewelry stores.

There are many signboards here, and the shops are connected; the emerald jewelry on the counter is crystal clear and dazzling. Being here, the feeling of the title of "China's No. [-] Emerald City" is more real, and it is natural to come to the conclusion that the reputation is well-deserved.

In these magnificent jade shops, all kinds of jade jewelry, bracelets, ear pieces, ring faces, jade hairpins, jade pendants, and jade pendants exude charm, and you can enjoy viewing and purchasing.

In a store, Tang Yan spent money to buy a pair of emerald jade Buddhas, and she gave one of the Guanyin Buddha pendants to Mo Liming, saying that wearing them would keep her safe.

The jade cost a total of [-] yuan. The emerald color is relatively good, and it belongs to the B-grade of water jadeite. Although it is very ordinary, it is still good as a souvenir.

Mo Liming didn't expect Tang Yan to do this. She suddenly gave him a peace talisman, which made him feel relieved.

The two of them were going to head home when they were shopping in the Jewelry City until almost noon. When they walked out of a jade shop and came to the courtyard, suddenly, a person rushed towards him. Both Li Ming and Tang Yan instinctively hid aside.

Mo Liming deftly dodged the charge of that headless man, but at this moment, Tang Yan only heard a pained "Ah".

Feeling that she had been hurt, Mo Liming hurried over to check on her situation.

"Miss Tang, what's the matter with you?" Mo Liming asked eagerly.

Tang Yan said angrily: "Fuck that guy, why are you running around in public?!"

She stood on tiptoe, her heel seemed to be brushed by something, and she was enduring the pain with her crescent eyebrows tightly frowned.

"Are you okay? Can you still go?" Mo Liming asked worriedly.

Tang Yan nodded and said, "It's okay. But it hurts a bit, I didn't notice it at all just now, so someone put a broken stone here, it's so disgusting!"

When she spoke loudly and recklessly, it undoubtedly attracted a lot of inhuman crowds of unknown people.

"Stone?" Mo Liming stared at it, and he really saw a rock with uneven surface lying quietly under Tang Yan's feet. The stone was relatively big, about the size of a child's arms, and showed a spherical shape with irregular boundaries.

"Why is this stone so bright?!" Mo Liming's expression suddenly changed when his eyes touched the stone inadvertently, and he was obviously surprised.

It should be a stone used to press the wire rope of the tent pole. I don’t know how many times it has rolled on the ground, and I don’t know how much wind and rain it has suffered. I can only see that the case is already black. It’s not in shape. It’s a miracle that it’s survived until now. It’s not thrown into the garbage station. It’s conceivable that the manager of the market or the owner of the corresponding shop is relatively lazy and has never paid attention to the stone. Although it is so ugly.

At first glance, Mo Liming thought it was dazzling because it was extremely black, almost like charcoal.

The stone didn't attract the attention of any other passers-by, and it caught Mo Liming's eyeballs all at once, but that's right, if it wasn't for Tang Yan who accidentally tripped over it, then he would never have noticed it, and would definitely wipe it. over the shoulder.

Naturally, Mo Liming knew that among the jadeite wool materials, there are those whose skin color is very black and inconspicuous, and often the jade green that is extracted from such materials is amazing.

When those thoughts unconsciously floated in his mind, Mo Liming couldn't help secretly driving the "Seven-eyed Buddha Spirit" to see through the smelly abandoned stone.

But in fact, just when he drove the see-through light into the inside of the stone, at that moment, he stared suddenly, which was completely involuntary.

"Isn't this too fake?!" Mo Liming was secretly taken aback.

"Mo Liming, what are you looking at? Let's go, go back." Tang Yan shouted, his right heel was scratched a little by that stubborn rock, and she was still furious.

"Oh, nothing!"

Hearing Tang Yan's greeting, Mo Liming hurried away, but instead of walking away with Tang Yan immediately, he pointed to the "ugly" stone on the ground and said directly to Tang Yan: "I want to buy this stone !"

He straightened his expression, it didn't look like he was joking.

"What?! That stone?!" Tang Yan was very surprised, "Mo Liming, he is not gambling with stones, what's the use of it?!"

But Mo Liming replied in a serious manner: "Miss Tang, didn't you tell me before you came here that you can see emerald stones everywhere on Tengchong's side, and some people use those stones to lay foundations, so that stone may not be It’s not a rough jadeite. I want to take a gamble, because it kicked your foot just now, and I want to break it open to see if there is any mystery in it.”

"Hehe, what's the mystery?" Tang Yan said, "I accidentally bumped into the stone in a hurry. Mo Liming, if you want it, just move it away. No one will want this stone." , just a piece of ordinary waste rock.”

After finishing speaking, she took out a handkerchief from her bosom, handed it to Mo Liming and said, "Come and get it. No one will tell you. It will be a free gift."

Mo Liming took it, he knelt down and was about to lift the stone and leave the scene quickly, but who knew he was still discovered.

"Hey, what do you want to do?!"

At this moment, only a rough voice was heard scolding.
