Happy Shennong

Chapter 387 Breaking the Myth
Thor is actually a liar.

After Liu Ruqing left, the store returned to its original state.Gu Weixiong dismissed the buddy, and said to Linley with a smile, "I'm sorry, little brother, it's all because of our ineffective supervision, and let the idlers wait in, disturbing your elegant mood."

"Boss Gu is being polite. It's just a small episode and it won't affect my mood." Linley waved his hand in response.

"Then do you have the rough stone you are looking for? No matter which rough stone you like, I can give you a [-]% discount, and the discount I give you is not limited to today." Gu Weixiong took out a shiny piece of paper from his pocket. card, "This is the highest level diamond membership card in our store. I will give you one as a gift. You can enjoy a [-]% discount on consumption with the card. I admit that compared with other industries, our member discounts are not very strong. But the diamond membership card in our store Card members, who spend less than [-] yuan in a single transaction, can record it once. Just one thing to note is that you cannot spend again before the account is settled. Of course, you should not use this function, little brother. "

"Thank you." Linley took the membership card without being pretentious.

"You're welcome, this card is what you deserve. It was prepared to give you a long time ago, but you haven't come here. Well, since the episode is over, I won't bother you, you can continue to study the rough stone, I Also go around. By the way, if you have time, go to the cashier to register, otherwise the membership card will not be activated."

"Ok."

Linley nodded, and Xiong Da came over and went to register with his membership card.

Half an hour passed quickly, and Ma Kui's 3-minute enthusiasm had long since become a thing of the past. He was no longer in the mood to follow Linley around. There is a lot of profit margin, but this line, I definitely can’t do it.”

"You're so impatient, it's weird if you do it." Xiong Da shrugged, "Speaking of character, I admire Lei Ge more and more. Sometimes, his personality is very hot, just like you. But now, he can study the rough stone quietly again, as if he can stay there no matter how long."

"Brother Lei is a weird person, it seems that he has been like this since he was a child... No, although his behavior was a little different from ordinary people when he was young, it is understandable, because his brain is smarter than ordinary people. The reason why I feel that he is weird , It started when I returned from demobilization."

"Hiss... Kuizi, what do you mean, Brother Lei wasn't as... monstrous as he is now?"

"That's what it means. I don't know what he went through during my time as a soldier. Anyway, I feel like he has changed. It doesn't mean that he has become someone else, he is still him, or he has become stronger than before There are too many. No matter what aspect it is, it is so awesome that people have to admire it."

"..."

Ma Kui and Xiong Da started a discussion on Linley's character and abilities.

At some point, Linley appeared behind them, and said quietly, "You're so happy to speak ill of me?"

"Uh... no, you are our boss, how dare we speak ill of you?" Ma Kui replied with a smile.

"Then how did I hear 'weird' and 'monster' and all that?"

"That's because we were yelling at each other. I said Xiong Da was a weirdo, and he said I was a monster. Ahem..." Ma Kui laughed, and quickly changed the subject, "Brother Lei, have you picked out the rough stone?"

Linley nodded, "I chose two pieces."

"Brother Lei, help me choose one too."

"Okay, but the rough stones that suit you are all on the first floor."

"Then let's go down quickly."

Ma Kui picked up a rough stone that Linley had chosen, and impatiently entered the corridor.Xiong Da picked up another piece and followed it.

Linley came to the first floor, chose a rough stone for Ma Kui, took one for himself, and piled them all up on the cash register.The cashier calculated that the total was a little over 8.Because there is a diamond membership card, you can get a discount of more than 1, which is very cost-effective.

This amount of money is nothing to Linley, but Ma Kui was a little uneasy, and said with emotion: "More than 6 yuan, that's almost a year's salary for an ordinary white-collar worker! , It’s simply not something anyone can afford to play.”

Xiong laughed and said, "It's not a division of people. Most people come in and buy rough stones that cost a few hundred yuan a piece. At most, they can be worth a thousand yuan. But Lei Ge is rich, and cheap rough stones are not fun to play with. "

"It's true. Poor people play poor people's games, and rich people play rich people's games."

Linley frowned, and said to Ma Kui, "Are you going to continue expressing your feelings here, or go and cut the rough stone?"

"Oh, it's important to do business." Ma Kui reacted, and quickly carried the rough stone to the cutting place.

Linley was not in a hurry and let Ma Kui come first.As a result, a small piece of emerald was cut out of Ma Kui's rough stone.After expert appraisal, it was said that the store was willing to recycle it at a price of [-].

Upon hearing the quotation from the expert, Ma Kui jumped a few times excitedly.No counter-offer, just a deal.He was still envious of Xiong Da just now, but now he finally has a balance in his heart.Amid the excitement, he couldn't help but think of what Linley said before he came to the stone betting market: Betting on stones is a delicate job, but it doesn't necessarily require a lot of time.

He clearly remembered that the rough stones that Linley chose for Xiong Dahe were all taken at random, and the selection process only took a few seconds.Even counting from entering the store, it has been less than three hours.It takes three hours to earn more than 3 yuan, with an average of more than 1 yuan per hour.What's more, Linley had selected a total of three rough stones before and after, and he hadn't started cutting them yet, so there might be something to gain.

Where can I find such a good thing?They happened to meet today.

He originally thought that betting on stones meant spending years and years in the rough stone shop.Only now do I know that gambling stones can be the same as going to work, just bring them in the store for a few hours a day.The work is easy and the income is high.The only problem is that there are very few people who can afford to bet on stones, and the vast majority of people don't have the ability.

At the same time, he also realized a problem.The rough stones that Linley gave them could cut out [-] yuan worth of jadeite, and the rate of return was more than ten times that. Then, what kind of jadeite could he cut out from the rough stones that Linley had spent several hours carefully selecting?

Thinking of this, Ma Kui's curiosity was completely aroused, and he fixed his eyes on the cutting master.In the end, he was greatly disappointed. The piece of rough stone worth 1000 yuan that Linley had chosen didn't cut out anything, which was a waste of 1000 yuan.

"What's the situation?" Ma Kui couldn't help frowning, leaned in front of Xiong Da, and said softly, "Xiong Da, do you think Lei Ge gave us all the good rough stones, and he chose a bad one himself? ?”

"I feel that this result should be within Linley's expectations." Xiong Da maintained a slight smile, "Because he took the one thousand rough stone casually."

"He also picked up the rough stone for my family!"

"No, there is a difference between the two. The rough stone he chose for us was deliberately pretended to be 'taken by hand'. The one thousand rough stone he chose was really taken by hand. "

"Uh...is there a difference?"

"It must be. If you don't believe me, just keep reading. Lei Ge still has two rough stones to cut."

Ma Kui didn't understand very well, touched his forehead, and continued to look at the cutting master.

As for Linley, he still looked relaxed.While waiting for the result, he also received a call from Captain Shi.Captain Shi said that he had completed the release procedures for Hou Yongqiang.The current Hou Yongqiang has only become a free man in the true sense. At this moment, he has brought Hou Yongqiang back to the city.

Hearing that Linley was in the gambling stone market, Hou Yongqiang seemed very excited and said that he would come over too.Captain Shi knew that Hou Yongqiang's home was just across from the entrance of the Gambling Stone Market, so he didn't say much, and directly drove Hou Yongqiang to the Gambling Stone Market, meeting with Lin Lei and the others...

Soon, Linley's second fastest rough stone was cut.Living up to expectations, the jadeite was cut out, but it was not big.After tasting by several experts, they unanimously gave a quotation of 2 yuan.He didn't bargain and sold it directly.

Ma Kui nodded and said: "Fortunately, Lei Ge didn't miss. Even if the remaining piece can't cut anything, it's not a big loss today. It cost more than 6 yuan, but the three of us cut out three pieces in total. The total value of emeralds is [-]. A loss of less than [-] is still acceptable in the stone gambling business."

Xiong Da also nodded and said: "I knew that Lei Ge is very sure about betting on stones. He loses nine out of ten bets, but he wins nine out of ten bets."

It can be seen that Ma Kui and Xiong Da are quite satisfied with the current results.

But in the crowd of onlookers, the pot exploded.The people who were attracted today all came because of Linley's fame, and they all knew something about Linley's previous experience of betting on stones.According to the usual practice, Linley would choose three rough stones of different value each time, but the result was always the same, that is, two pieces were scrapped, and one piece was cut out of emerald.

Now two pieces have been cut, one is useless, and one is cut out of a small jadeite, so there should be no hope for the remaining piece.Although Linley didn't lose much, he still lost a little after all, which was inconsistent with his previous situation of making money every time.

Could it be that the myth of Linley's betting on rocks that he won't lose any money is about to be shattered today?

Some impatient onlookers have already begun to express their opinions: "Let me just say, how can anyone in the stone gambling world be able to make a steady profit without losing money? Even Confucius can't reach that level, let alone a young man who has not been in the industry for long?"

"That's right. He should have missed once, otherwise, he picked up all the good things, and we are still playing with a bird's egg? I am wondering, after today, will his reputation gradually decline?"

"..."

Relying on his excellent hearing ability, Linley could clearly hear the whispers of the onlookers.He also had no business, and still maintained a faint smile, pushing the last piece of rough stone in front of the cutter: "It's troublesome."

"Good to say."

The cutting master had known Linley for a long time, and he knew that this person was not simple, so he had a surprisingly good attitude.He took the original stone with a smile, and started planning seriously...
