    "This is a little uncomfortable," Zhou Wenping said hesitantly.  And Lao Wu also rubbed his hands and said: "This is really embarrassing." "Okay, it's settled, everyone must come then, otherwise they won't give me face." The two met Chu Chen.  Having said that, I had no choice but to nod in agreement.  Then the three of them chatted about some anecdotes about the antique street, such as who paid the tuition fee, who missed it, who was mined, etc. All kinds of big and small things are happening every day in the antique street.  How many Hollywood blockbusters have been filmed?  After seeing that the time was almost up, Chu Chen said goodbye to the two of them. After all, he had to go to Cuiyuanzhai to do business later.  After leaving the antique stall, Chu Chen couldn't help but feel a little emotional, thinking that before, he, like Zhou Wenping and Lao Wu, lived a windy life as a hawker.  In just a few days, earth-shaking changes have taken place because of a piece of Tang Sancai. These days can be said to be a mixture of sorrow and joy. It is so unpredictable and everything is unpredictable.  When Chu Chen came to Cuiyuanzhai, he saw many people gathered around a stall, choosing something there. He thought to himself, no need to guess, it must be Zhao Guosheng's new rough stone. Everyone took advantage of this moment to  Then choose wool with better performance.  When jadeite is mined, it is wrapped in a layer of weathered skin. There is no way to know the internal conditions. Only by cutting the stone can we know whether there is jadeite inside and the quality of the jadeite. At this time, the jadeite is also commonly known as jadeite.  woolen material.  In the past, the name of stone gambling was not actually called gambling, but called gambling shop. Stone gambling masters must possess the three conditions of great challenge ability, adventurous spirit, and rich experience. From these three points, we can see that gambling  stone difficulty.  As the saying goes, "It's hard for an immortal to cut through an inch of jade." Even with today's advanced technology, there's still no way to detect what's going on inside the wool.  People mainly infer the quality of the internal jade based on the surface characteristics of the original jade stone.  This requires stone bettors to have rich jade knowledge and experience, such as analyzing sample materials and understanding the origin of jade.  And because the profit of woolen materials is very high, it is inevitable that some people will try their best to use it, and there are endless cheating methods such as "sticking on fake leather", which also requires people to pay more attention.  But since there is a word "gamble" in stone gambling, it means that no one is sure of winning. Even experienced experts will inevitably make mistakes sometimes, and there is also a considerable element of luck.  Precisely because there is such uncertainty in stone gambling, it is not uncommon for people to become rich overnight or lose everything overnight in the stone gambling market.  To sum up, "Stone Gambling" is actually an expert-level jade buying and selling behavior. Participating in "Stone Gambling" depends on luck and tests your eyesight, and it also requires a reserve of professional knowledge.  If he hadn¡¯t had a stone gambling career for nearly four years, even if he could sense emerald after testing out his powers, Chu Chen wouldn¡¯t dare to use it too frequently in stone gambling.  If a new stone gambler can get good jadeite several times, it may be due to luck. If this happens all the time, then people have to be suspicious. Maybe they are caught and used as a guinea pig, or they are simply arrested.  Helping him bet stones, Chu Chen couldn't help but shudder when thinking of the miserable situation.  "Hey, Xiao Chen is here. How are you? What are you going to buy today?" Zhang Guosheng's sharp eyes saw Chu Chen from a distance and said hello. After Chu Chen walked to the door, he pointed to the small pile of wool on one side.  , said: "There is a promotion today. I can pick up four yuan for a hundred yuan over there. There is no such land after passing this village!" "Hey, I said Brother Zhang, didn't Aunt Zhang say you asked me to come yesterday?  I didn't see you coming here with a cup of tea." Chu Chen joked to Zhang Guosheng.  Zhang Guosheng completely inherited Aunt Zhang's shamelessness and was not embarrassed after hearing this. He said: "Hey, I'm really busy today. Look, someone called me over there again. Let's see for yourself first. Is there anything you need?"  Just come to me, we are old acquaintances, and I will never let you suffer." After saying that, he apologized to Chu Chen and went to greet others.  Basically every time at this time, Zhang Guosheng would always find some excuse to evade. Chu Chen was used to it, so he shook his head and walked towards the pile of woolen materials that Zhang Guosheng pointed to just now.  The situation of the newly imported woolen materials here and on the other side is very different. There is only one young man picking and choosing there, and this man Chu Chen also knows, his name is Li Guodong.  Li Guodong is two years older than Chu Chen, and he is quite energetic. He is a senior student at a university in Beijing. He came into the stone gambling business a year later than Chu Chen. Like Chu Chen, he likes to buy things that are cheaper in stores.  stone, but his reason was different from Chu Chen's, it was entirely due to lack of money.  They are both about the same age, have the same interest in stone gambling, and are both newcomers.?It was easier to communicate, and we became friends in no time.  ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????: Li Guodong¡¯s classmate¡¯s reunion.  After this back and forth, the two became good friends.  Chu Chen and Li Guodong said hello: "Brother Li, have you received any goods today?" Li Guodong pointed to the woolen material on the ground and said: "Look at the quality, how can there be any goods received?" Chu Chen  I lowered my head and took a cursory look at the wool on the ground, and I was speechless for a moment!  How can this be called wool?  The woolen material doesn't even have some basic features of jadeite, it's just brick material, and it's useless to use it as a stepping stone.  So Chu Chen said: "I asked why it is so cheap today. When I used to deal with the accumulation of goods, it cost one hundred yuan and two yuan, but today I can get four yuan. Just like this, I don't even want to give it to me. From now on, let's call him  Zhang Gongji got it." Li Guodong nodded in agreement and continued to pick and choose, while saying: "That's good, it saves me money. Anyway, the quality of the wool was not better than this time at this time.  How much? Maybe such a stone will turn out to be jadeite." Chu Chen looked at him with disdain and said, "Have a great dream of yours. I think it's very unlikely that jadeite will turn out with this kind of performance.  There is no chance." "Hey, don't worry about his fraction, you can't say it's impossible, maybe it will be my turn to get lucky today," Li Guodong said proudly.  "Okay, I think you are crazy. If you have such luck, why not buy lottery tickets? I think you are short of money to make a girlfriend?" Seeing his squeaking look, Chu Chen said, "No.  Yes, you really have a girlfriend? Is it possible that the thousand-year-old iron tree will bloom? " "Fuck you, the thousand-year iron tree, is it possible that I can't find a girlfriend?" Li Guodong said angrily.  Li Guodong is pretty tall, about 1.7 meters tall, and looks like a young bourgeois artist. He doesn't look bad, but since he went to college, either the person he likes has a boyfriend, or someone else likes him.  But he looks down on others, so much so that he is still single.  When Chu Chen heard that he had a girlfriend, he was also very curious and said: "Hey, tell me, what does his girlfriend look like, and let me get to know him sometime." Li Guodong said a little embarrassed: "We  The relationship was only confirmed yesterday. Besides, she has a low reputation, so we should wait until some time later." Chu Chen patted him on the shoulder and said, "Okay, brother Li, your spring is here, but you won't be a little embarrassed because of this matter.  Is this a wild idea, or does your girlfriend have petty bourgeois tendencies? " "Don't talk nonsense, my girlfriend never asks about my family background, and she is quite frugal, but her father is still a minor official in the Beijing department, I  Isn¡¯t this because I want to make some money and be able to live in a good family?¡± Li Guodong¡¯s family situation is not bad. Both his parents are teachers at key high schools in the capital city of the western province. The family has everything, but of course it is impossible to be rich.  So Chu Chen asked: "What do her parents think? Do they put any pressure on you?" Li Guodong waved his hand and said: "We just officially dated yesterday, and her parents don't know yet, but thinking about her family's situation,  I have a headache. I think if our relationship is good, I will be ready to work in Beijing, but you also know my family¡¯s situation. It¡¯s still hard to buy a house in Beijing. ¡°The key depends on the attitude of her parents.  , if her parents think you are satisfied, then everything will go smoothly. On the contrary, I think it is quite difficult, but if you want to buy a house, buy it as soon as possible. Now the house prices are changing every day. If you don¡¯t have enough money, just ask me.  Borrow it, you're welcome." After saying that, Chu Chen patted his chest.  Li Guodong smiled and said, "Okay, I'll be polite then, but before that I have to ask my parents for their opinions." Chu Chen nodded, and then accompanied Li Guodong to pick up wool.  Originally, he wanted to go to the other side to choose woolen fabrics, but there were too many people gathered there and it was really crowded. Coupled with the hot weather, it was a bit unbearable for him. He planned to go there later when there would be fewer people.  The performance of the wool here was really bad, and there was no characteristic of jade wool at all. So Chu Chen simply didn¡¯t even use a flashlight or anything and just picked randomly. If he found something pleasing to his eyes, he would take a look and compare it with his past experience.  Verify it.  But to be honest, this kind of brick material cannot be used for verification. ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? out out of the 100 pieces of wool, there was no response to the power of his left hand. Chu Chen didn't care at all. It was really strange that there was jade in a stone like this.  ? ?At this time, the area where the newly arrived woolen materials were was already a little empty. Some people watched the excitement for a while and then left. Others had already selected satisfactory woolen materials and were preparing to take them to the backyard to cut stones. Seeing this, Chu Chen was ready to  Go there to select wool. After all, those wools that perform well are more likely to contain jade.  Suddenly, a look of astonishment flashed across Chu Chen's face. Just before he left, he picked up another piece of wool. Unexpectedly, as soon as he got hold of this piece of wool, the power of his left hand began to move. At that moment, he was a little surprised.  Not overwhelmed.
