    Hou Yuanming's jade jewelry store is not far from Baxian Temple.  Hou's father was also very courageous at the time. During the reform and opening up, he decided to start a jade business in the south when he was in his forties. Later, after gaining some experience and channels, he returned to Xijing in the early 1990s and opened this jade business.  Jade jewelry store.  Hou Yuanming served as a soldier for several years, and then returned home. After working as a civil servant for a few years, he found it boring. At that time, Hou's father wanted to come back and open a store, so the father and son worked together to open the store.  With Hou¡¯s father¡¯s experience and channels, as well as Hou Yuanming¡¯s shrewd mind, the two complement each other. Over the past few years, their business has grown bigger and bigger. At the beginning of this year, they opened a branch in the city center.  Hou Yuanming¡¯s jewelry store is called Cuiyu Zhai. The exterior and interior decoration of the store adhere to the same style of Baxian Temple, and it looks very simple and elegant.  This store has been around for nearly ten years. Although the space in the store seemed quite large back then, from today's perspective, it is only average.  Walking into the store, in the middle circle, there are simple glass cabinets, most of which are jade jewelry, and some are white jade.  On the left and right sides and the front side are exquisite ancient wall cabinets, which contain various exquisite jade or white jade statues and ornaments.  Cuiyuzhai should be quite famous in Xijing. Even at noon, there are still several customers choosing jewelry or ornaments there.  After Chu Chen and others came in, Hou Yuanming exchanged a few words with the waiter, and then led everyone directly to the backyard, where Cuiyuzhai gambled.  The backyard of Cuiyu Zhai is about two-fifths smaller than that of Juyuan Pavilion, and the wool material is smaller than that of Juyuan Pavilion.  According to Hou Yuanming, the lowest price for wool here is one hundred yuan, and the highest price is more than one million. No matter how good it is, there are not many people betting on stones in Xijing now. If you buy wool that is too expensive,  If it cannot be sold, it will take up a lot of funds and is not cost-effective.  There are three stone dissolving machines in the courtyard, one each for large, medium and small. Although there were not many people dissecting stones at noon, there were three people standing next to the medium-sized stone dissolving machine, and one of them was only twenty.  A young man wearing glasses is cutting wool there.  But don't underestimate this man's young age, but he is extremely skillful in removing stones.  "It's up!" This voice immediately attracted the attention of Chu Chen and others, and Wen Yuting pulled Chu Yulan and ran there quickly.  When Chu Chen and others walked to the stone dissecting machine, they happened to see the window where the wool was cut.  Looking at it, Chu Chen didn't look so excited anymore.  Although there is green on the cut surface, the green should be regarded as pea green, and it looks almost waxy. The value depends on how much jadeite can be found, but the chance of a big increase is really slim.  Sure enough, with the next cut, the value of the jadeite was almost revealed.  Chu Chen estimated that the jadeite he bought could be used to make a few pairs of bracelets at most, along with some rings and ornaments, but the total value was only fifteen or sixteen.  It is definitely incomparable to the glass type that Chu Chen offered for more than one thousand yuan for more than one thousand yuan before.  Although this was nothing to Chu Chen, for the owner of the woolen material, a middle-aged man among the three people before, it was already very happy.  After learning the result, the man looked very excited. When Chu Chen asked about it, he found out that he had bought the wool for 18,000 yuan. Being able to sell jadeite for 150,000 yuan was already a good gain.  Next, the young man who cut the stone discussed with the people who were standing before and asked them how they wanted to cut it. After discussion, the last few people decided to remove some of the edges first, and then wipe them for comparison.  Insurance, which can also ensure the integrity of the jadeite.  And the final result was not what Chu Chen expected. The jadeite extracted was worth about 150,000 yuan.  Seeing this, the old man in his sixties standing nearby smiled and said: "Boss Song, this time you have fulfilled your dream. You sold this piece of material to me for only 150,000 yuan. What do you think?"  ?¡± Boss Song said nonchalantly with a somewhat excited look: ¡°Boss Hou, it¡¯s totally fine. Young man, please take a rest first. I¡¯ll bother you later to untie the remaining piece of wool.¡± ¡°Listen.  Hou Yuanming introduced that Boss Song was also a boss with at least tens of millions of dollars. He only played stone gambling to feel the fun of gambling and was not addicted to it, so he pretended not to care.  And that old man is Hou Yuanming's father.  During the break, Hou Yuanming introduced Chu Chen and the others to each other.  "Dad, despite his young age, Xiao Chu is not only good at appraising antiques, but he is also an expert at betting on stones." Hou Yuanming said with a smile.?.  Father Hou nodded with a smile and said: "That's good. The waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead. Today, Xiao Chu is going to show off his skills." Chu Chen quickly waved his hands and said: "Don't dare, Mr. Hou, I'm just lucky, but I can't compare to you.  The old man is rich in experience." Father Hou smiled and said: "Luck is also a kind of strength, and I think the most important thing in our industry is luck. As the old saying goes, it's hard to judge an immortal, so good luck.  It's also your capital. Okay, Xiao Chu, you go see the raw material first, I won't waste your time." Seeing that it was time to go see the raw material, Wen Yuting acted like she was running wild because of the atmosphere of betting on gains.  Like a wild horse, she was very excited. She pulled Chu Yulan and rushed towards the jade wool. Chu Chen and others looked at them shaking their heads and laughing.  "Brother Li, why don't you go and look at your girlfriend? Don't buy blindly and cry when you lose the bet." Chu Chen said with a smile.  Seeing this, Li Guodong could only shake his head, sighed, and followed her. He had no choice but to end up with such a girlfriend.  Zhou Wenping also smiled and said: "Xiao Chen, I'll go over and take a look. Guodong probably doesn't have the ability to fix the sea needle." Chu Chen thought about it. Li Guodong always looked like he was holding back in front of Wen Yuting.  Zhou Wenping might as well go over and take a look.  Seeing that Zhou Wenping and the others had gone to look at the wool materials, Hou Yuanming said: "Xiao Chu, I won't bother you looking at the wool materials. Call me when something happens." "Wait a minute, Brother Hou, the wool materials you have here are big.  Some of them are new materials. To be honest, I'm really not interested in this kind of material." Seeing Hou Yuanming was about to leave, Chu Chen called out to him.  When he came in just now, Chu Chen did a rough scan and found that many of the woolen materials piled in the open air were from Xinchangkou. This kind of woolen material was okay for newcomers, but what he said was a bit uninteresting.  .  After hearing this, Hou Yuanming slapped his forehead and said: "Hey, I thought you would be a little interested in the new venue information. I forgot that you are a master of stone gambling. Let's go, I will take you there now." Although Hou Yuanming had heard from Li Guodong before  Others said that Chu Chen is a master of stone gambling, but after all, Chu Chen is a bit young, and the experience of stone gambling depends on the accumulation of time, so it is impossible for him to completely believe it, so he did not bring Chu Chen with him from the beginning.  Chen went to see the woolen materials in Laochangkou.  Hou Yuanming took Chu Chen to a room with better security measures. This room was almost more than forty square meters. Most of the materials in the room were from the old market. Of course, there were also some new ones that were particularly conspicuous.  Mouth material.  The wool materials here are divided into three piles, one for the old market and one for the new ones. There is also a pile of wool for the windows. However, there are not many wool materials for the windows, but this is also true. Hou Yuanming¡¯s family originally  I am in the jade business, and if I perform well in opening the window, I will probably be able to untie it on my own.  Hou Yuanming said with some complacency: "Xiao Chu, the woolen materials here should be enough for you to choose from. I believe that even in the whole of Xijing, there are few companies that perform as well as mine." Chu Chen arrived at this point.  Some also agree that the woolen fabrics here are indeed very good, and the woolen fabrics at the same price are not inferior to the Juyuan Pavilion in Lu Changshun.  So he nodded and said: "Brother Hou, your wool is really good. It seems that I need to take some time to carefully select it, otherwise I will be sorry for the opportunity you gave me, Brother Hou." "Okay, you can choose, but here is  There is a piece of wool that you can only look at, but not buy." Hou Yuanming pointed to a piece of wool that weighed more than fifty kilograms with a hint of apology, and said: "This piece of wool was bought in southern Yunnan for more than two million yuan.  , is my father's favorite piece of wool, but he has never made up his mind to untie it. " Chu Chen took a cursory look at the piece of wool, and it was indeed good, but since the owner said he couldn't sell it, he didn't care.  So he smiled and said, "Brother Hou, I can definitely understand this, but since Mr. Hou likes it so much, I must study it carefully." After signaling to Hou Yuanming, Chu Chen began to carefully select raw materials.  But it was Bao Jue who surprised him first.  It turned out that he didn't expect that after the super power was upgraded, Baojue could actually affect the jade wool. Although the distance was shorter than the antique, and he had to be thirty centimeters away from the wool to sense it, it was already a very big deal to him.  surprise.  It can save him a lot of time when choosing jade.  The first thing Chu Chen looked at was the piece of wool that Hou Yuanming had instructed before.  After carefully looking at this piece of wool, he secretly praised it in his heart. Not only did this piece of wool have a python, but there were also relatively rare spring pine flowers on the python.  You must know that spring pine flowers are very rare violets. Adding this kind of pine flowers to the boa is really rare.??Stone gambling performance.  To be honest, Chu Chen was indeed very moved when he saw such a performance, but it was a pity that the owner did not sell it, so there was nothing he could do. However, after he used the superpower, he did not expect that the result made him feel a little disappointed.
