After the model took the stone and went
on the stage, an old man over 60 years old
also went on the stage and shouted, "Dear
guests, the surface of this stone is already
black. There is a saying in the stone field
that black goes with the green, and green
depends on the black. The green may not
be black on the surface, but if the surface
is black, then it almost confirmes that there
will be green inside. As for what can be cut
out, it depends on your fate. The starting
price of this stone is three thousand yuan,
and each next bid should no less than five
hundred yuan."
As soon as the old man's voice fell, people
under the stage immediately shouted for a
price.
"5,000!"
"8,000!"
"9,000!"
There were continuous calls for price. This
kind of stone, which could be seen to be
black, would usually be sold at a price of
more than 20,000 yuan. A few thousand
yuan was too cheap. This kind of stone
that could contain jade would be coveted
by many people. After all, the most
important part of stone gambling was
gambling itself. There was already a
guarantee that there was something green
inside which had already eliminated great
risks. The rest depended on one's luck,
whether it was worth it or not.
This bidding did not stop until it reached
32,000 yuan.
Henry nodded. Jenny's price for this stone
was between eighteen thousand and
twenty-one thousand. This price was
already very good. If it was placed in the
store, it would not be sold at a price of
thirty-two thousand yuan. Sure enough,
the auction was the place that could
arouse people's desire to buy it.
If you managed to buy the raw stones, you
could choose to ask the staff to open them
on spot or take them to your seat and open
yourself.
In the process of the auction, everything
was getting better and better. After the
first piece of stone, every piece of stone
that was auctioned afterwards was worth
more than 32,000 yuan.
When the atmosphere was too high, Amy's
fiancé, Karl, also couldn't help but bid
several times.
"Brother-in-law, do you know how to
gamble on stones?" Amy looked at her
father and asked Henry cautiously. After
asking, she immediately turned her head
and looked at her father's reaction.
"A little bit. What, do you want to buy it?"
Henry asked curiously.
Amy's eyes flashed a trace of struggle, and
she nodded vigorously. "I want to gamble
once, but I can only buy one piece. ButI
don't know anything about stones. Can you
help me?"
Henry looked at Amy and then looked at
Karl. "Did you encounter any difficulties?"
"No." Amy squeezed out a smile. "I just
want to play gambling on stones. How can
I encounter difficulties?"
Henry saw that Amy did not want to say
anything, so he did not continue to ask. He
nodded and said, "Okay, I'll help you."
"Thank you, brother-in-law."
Henry looked at Amy who was so nervous
that her body was shaking. He sighed.
Whether it was because of Daisy or Amy
calling him brother-in-law, Henry couldn't
help but help her.
The auction was gradually going on.
"Gentlemen, this stone." The old man on
the stand picked up a stone that was 25
centimetres long from the tray. "We can
see that there is a whole piece of green
under the surface. That is to say, there is a
jade at the bottom of the stone. But before
it is cut out, the colour of this jade could
not be estimated. This stone is sold at a
price of fifty thousand, and every raise
should be at least one thousand yuan."
"51,000 yuan!" As soon as the old man
finished his words, Karl spoke first. He had
already taken a fancy to this stone. Before
the start of all the auction, all the guests
would be issued an auction booklet, which
contained the basic introduction of the
goods of this auction.
"52,000!"
"55,000!"
"60,000!"
The price of this stone soared all the way.
The green colour inside that the old man
showed was ten centimetres long and
three centimetres wide. If the colour was
slightly good, it could be sold for more
than 100,000.
Even if it was not too valuable, it could be
sold for 20,000 yuan. Therefore, buying
this jade with 60,000 yuan was equivalent
to gambling with 40,000 yuan. Many
people saw through this point, so they did
not feel guilty at all when raising the price.
"65,000 yuan!" Karl gritted his teeth and
shouted out a price.
Amy looked at the stone on the stage and
couldn't help asking, "Brother-in-law, what
do you think?"
Henry shook his head. "Don't buy it. It's too
risky."
"A big risk?" Hearing this, Karl sneered on
the spot. "Do you mean that this raw stone
is very risky? Do you know anything about
stones? Can't you see that there is such a
large piece of green at the bottom? Don't
you know how to pretend to understand?"
Looking at the arrogant look of Karl, Henry
shook his head and said nothing.
Amy heard that Henry said no to buying it,
so she didn't ask more. Amy still trusted
Henry very much.
The price of the stone on the stage rose all
the way. In the end, it rose to 130,000
yuan and was taken by someone. The
person who bought this stone was exactly
Karl.
Henry looked at the stone that was bought
by Karl. It was probably a loss. There was a
big crack in this stone. The price of the
jade would be greatly reduced, but the big
crack was not the most fatal. The most
fatal thing was that there was a crack in
the crack.
The crack caused great harm to the jade,
which directly affected the beauty and
price. Even the raw stones with the crack
could not be carved. It might be a palm-
sized jade. Because of the crack, only one-
third of the jade could be taken out, or
even lessS.
In the stone-gambling field, there was a
saying that people would rather gamble on
stone's appearance than gamble on it's
crack. It could be seen how important this
Crack was.
After Karl bought this raw stone, he didn't
cut it open for a long time. It seemed that
he was going to leave this expectation at
the end.
Another few raw stones were auctioned,
and the whole auction had fallen into a
very hot stage.
"Everyone, today's King Stones have been
auctioned, and there are a few pieces of
Emperor Stones to be auctioned.
Everyone, you should know that the jade
from Emperor stones is good, but the cost
is higher."
The old man said.
When they heard the words "Emperor
Stone", all the people under the stage
looked at the stage with keen eyes.
The old man took out a fist-sized stone. It
was grey-brown and had no luster on its
surface
"Is this an Emperor Stone?" As soon as the
old man took out the stone, someone
under the stage couldn't help asking.
"As far as I know, an Emperor Stone
doesn't look like this, does it? Although I
seldom gamble on stones, l've seen
Emperor Stones several times."
"That's right. Even if the best jade in this
stone, how much can it be worth?"
The doubts under the stage continued to
ring
ut.
The old man on the stage smiled and said,
"Everyone, please listen to me. Everyone
knows that the best jade stone in the
country is from the South Province. This
stone was in the centre surrounded by a
couple of Emperor stones. It is described
by the local Feng Shui master as the moon
being surrounded by the stars. As for what
is inside, no one has dared to cut it. This
stone is to be auctioned for before
Emperor stones, and the starting price
is...
At this point, the old man extended a finger
and said, "One yuan."
Henry looked at the stone on the stand
with a smile. The reason why the stone
Would appear here was that it was
specially brought for him to see it.
