Originally, invitations were required to participate in the jade auction. There are generally three channels. One is invited by the governments at all levels in Bagan, the other is invited by the Myanmar Jewelry Association at all levels, and the third is invited by the Myanmar Jewelry Trading Company. () If there is no invitation letter, in addition to paying a deposit, the Myanmar Jewelry Company also needs to be a guarantee, otherwise you will not be able to get in even if you have money. But this is naturally not a problem for Mr. Zhu Da. His collaborators are all veterans, and naturally they will not let Mr. Zhu Da worry about these things. Any one of them can easily get a few invitations, let alone all of them together. So after checking his fingerprints and going through the security check, Zhu Da was surrounded by more than a dozen people and walked in. They even paid the 50,000 euro deposit. "So this is the so-called jade auction?" Mr. Zhu Da entered the exhibition hall to take a look and said with some disappointment, "It seems there are a lot of people, but it is completely different from what I imagined! The layout here looks like It's just like a large domestic vegetable market. "Originally, Zhu Runfa thought that the so-called public exhibition hall was located indoors, but in fact the so-called exhibition hall had nothing to do with the "hall", it was just a few long rows of colored steel. Just a shed built. The shed was separated from the outside world by a wire mesh, and the rough stones were piled neatly on the cement floor. Some of these rough stones were in one piece, and some were broken into several large pieces. The broken stones were placed in a box counts as one serving. "It's not much like the vegetable market," Hu Beihao said with a smile. "The jadeite you usually see is polished. Of course, you have to find a good place to display it to make it look high-end. But this jadeite It's just a pile of rocks. "Yes!" Zhu Runfa nodded with a smile. Then he said, "Right! What should we do next? I have only heard of explicit labeling and hidden labeling before? When will it start?" "Yes!" Hu Beihao explained, "Explicit labeling is actually equivalent to In public auctions, hidden bidding is a secret bidding. In the past, when there was a lot of material, the open bidding and hidden bidding were usually held interspersed, that is, the open bidding was used to boost the atmosphere, and then the hidden bidding was used to raise the price of the hidden bid. In recent years, the price of jade has been increasing rapidly, and the number of materials has been decreasing year by year, so now the open bidding has become the final event. Basically, those who have no ability will go home after participating in the secret bidding. Those who can participate in the open bidding are all capable. It is said that there are only 7,500 pieces of wool this year, and there are only 294 pieces of marked wool. It will be held in the last three days. I don¡¯t know how high the transaction price of this year¡¯s bidding will be. " " That's it!" Zhu Runfa nodded when he heard this, and his face lit up. In fact, this is the best thing for him. For him, it means nothing at all except to waste more time and money. For him, it is actually better to start as late as possible. Only in this way can he take out more money from the pockets of those who have never participated in the public sale. If the bidding had started early, the money in the pockets of those wealthy businessmen would have been drained by the Bagan government due to the bidding. Then sell his artificial jade to ghosts? "I think this year should be pretty good!" At this time, a shareholder observed the crowd in the exhibition hall, and then smiled, "It seems that there are a lot less people this year, I guess it will be better." "Well! Sure enough, there are a lot less people. !" Another shareholder heard this and observed it carefully, with a happy smile on his face. But when Hu Beihao heard this, he shook his head and said, "Don't be too happy yet. Although there are fewer people, there are also fewer materials. I'm afraid the final result won't be any better than in previous years." "Uh!" The smiles on everyone's faces stagnated for a moment, and then became serious. "This I don't understand!" Zhu Runfa glanced at the bustling crowd and said puzzledly, "You said there are very few people, but why don't I think so. There seem to be at least tens of thousands of people here, and it is said that there were the most in previous years. There are only seven or eight thousand people, why do you still say there are few people?" "Hehehe!" Everyone laughed when they heard this. "Hahaha! Mr. Zhu Da, you don't know something!" Hu Beihao said with a smile, "They said there are fewer people, but actually they are saying that there are fewer local tycoons. In recent years, a large number of ignorant local tycoons have entered with huge amounts of capital. market, the price of the jade market has skyrocketed. But they don't know that this industry is not just about money. Just like stock trading, you can accidentally turn yourself into a shareholder. Playing with jade can also easily turn yourself into a shareholder. Completed 'Collector'." "Collector?" Zhu Runfa laughed suddenly when he heard this, "You mean that after they spent a lot of money to buy a bunch of jade, all they bought were fake. "All in their hands?" "That's pretty much what it means," Hu Beihao said with a smile, "These rich people don't understand jade at all, so they just found a few so-called consultants.Just dare to go into the water. But they also don¡¯t think about it. If those so-called experts were really reliable, they would have made a fortune long ago. Why would they become other people¡¯s consultants? Of course, it doesn't matter if it's just that. After all, although the so-called consultants are not very reliable, since they can be invited, they must be veterans who have been in this industry for many years and bought it under their guidance. Things will always go up. But the problem is that these guys are rich, and they will mark a high price casually. The result is that the pay and the reward are completely in proportion. Doing jade business and jade auction are completely different concepts. Selling jade is a very difficult and tiring job. If you want to sell 100 million jade, you need at least 2 billion stock to choose from. These rich people have a bunch of jadeite bought at high prices. Good-quality jadeite can be sold at auction to recover the cost, but who wants the poor-quality jadeite? People like us in the industry can always sell the failed jade even if the bet fails, but who will help these rich people sell it for them? If you don't want to vomit blood and sell it at a low price, you have to collect it yourself. Therefore, there were many local tycoons in the past few years, but after suffering a loss, there are far fewer people. " "That's right! "Zhu Runfa frowned when he heard this. The lack of rich people is good news for these jewelers, which means there will be less competition, but it is the worst news for him, Mr. Zhu Da. Good news for him, Mr. Zhu Da. I wish there were more rich people here. The more rich people he has, the more he can earn. He was thinking about something when he suddenly looked up. When he left, he saw Zhang Yiyi and Xiaoyun standing on either side of him, then each grabbed one of his hands and looked at him with gritted teeth. "Hmph! A sign of big breasts! "Zhang Yiyi gritted her teeth fiercely, then bit down on his right hand, "You damn gangster, how dare you tease me, I'll bite you to death! I bite! I bite! Ahhhhhh! " "You actually said I have no breasts" Xiaoyun looked at him with a look of sorrow and anger, then picked up his left hand and bit it. "I'll bite it too!" Ahhhhhh! "The two girls each grabbed one of his hands, like two angry kittens, biting each other fiercely, while purring in their mouths like protecting food. "Hiss! "Brother Batian's face twitched when he saw it. He first glanced at Zhu Runfa sympathetically, and then laughed with a look of schadenfreude. Hu Beihao and others looked at it and pretended not to have seen it. They talked and laughed as if nothing had happened, and blended into the crowd without stopping. Gone. ¡°Hey! Let go! Zhu Runfa looked at the two little girls with a dumbfounded look on his face, and shouted loudly, "Are you all born in the year of the dog?" How can you bite someone? Let go! I was just kidding you! " "You are the one born in the Year of the Dog! "Zhang Yiyi raised her head and said angrily. "I will bite anyone who dares to tease me! Ahhhhhh! " "You actually said I have no breasts. Hum! Xiaoyun looked angrily, "I'll bite you too!" Ahhhhhh! " "Well! Zhu Runfa rolled his eyes helplessly, "Okay!" It doesn¡¯t hurt me anyway, so just bite it! But don¡¯t blame me for not reminding you! Don¡¯t regret it later! " "It doesn't hurt?" Zhang Yiyi said angrily, "I told you not to feel any pain, so Xiaoyun bit hard!" Bite him to death! regret! Hum! I will regret it if I don¡¯t bite you! Ahhhhhh! " "Drink to death! Drink to death! "Xiao Yun nodded vaguely, "Ah wu wu wu! " "All right! Zhu Runfa sighed and said, "Since you must bite me, I have no choice but to tell you some news. I just hope you won't regret it after hearing it." I said, why don't you two just let go! Lest the time comes Sigh~" "Hmph! "The two girls snorted at the same time, biting harder. "Okay! In this case, I have no choice but to say it," Zhu Runfa glanced at them, and then said with a sad face, "Actually, I really want to tell you that I just went to the toilet" At this point, he deliberately stopped. , looking at the two little girls with a wicked smile, "Huh?" "The two girls froze and paused there, a drop of cold sweat dripping from their heads. "Then," Zhu Runfa smiled faintly, "I didn't wash my hands! " "ah! "The two girls screamed at the same time, letting go of Zhu Runfa's hand as if they were burned, and jumped several steps away. "You, you, you so disgusting! vomit! "The two girls pointed at Zhu Run and shivered with anger. They were so disgusted that they couldn't speak. "Hehe! "Zhu Runfa laughed mischievously, rubbed his hands on his clothes, and wiped the saliva on his hands. With the level 9 protective clothing, it was impossible for him to be bitten by two people, but this action made the two The little girl became even more disgusted, and the two of them retched again. "Oh~ I told you not to bite me earlier," Zhu Runfa sighed, "You haven't.If you are willing to listen, you will regret it now! " "Zhu ugh you've gone too far! Zhang Yiyi pointed at him and said, "You wait for me ugh!" " "Do not worry! Zhu Runfa laughed and said, "Actually, you don't have to be so disgusted. I just went to the toilet, but I didn't go to the bathroom, so it doesn't matter if I don't wash my hands!" " "Well! You didn't go to the big size? "The two of them were stunned, and the feeling of nausea disappeared immediately. "That's right! Zhu Runfa chuckled, and then made obscene gestures with his hands on his lower body, "But I didn't get the large size, I got the small size." " "Trumpet? "The two women were stunned when they heard the words, and glanced at his gestures subconsciously. Their faces immediately turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye. "You, you, you" Xiaoyun's whole body turned red like a human lobster, I was so embarrassed that I couldn¡¯t even speak. ¡°Bah! Damn gangster! "Zhang Yiyi blushed and rolled her eyes at him, stepped forward and kicked him hard, then dragged Xiaoyun and seemed to run away. "Hehe! "Zhu Runfa looked at the backs of the two and chuckled, "The little girl is a little girl after all, and you don't need to be teased! " "Bah! Damn gangster! "Brother Batian on the side held his voice and imitated Zhang Yiyi. Then he said angrily. "Brother Fa! The little girls are still underage. You can't be too hungry and be selective about food, right? Is it okay that the person is not yet an adult? " "Well! Zhu Runfa's face darkened, "I seem to have heard this somewhere" "Beast!" "Brother Ba Tian said with contempt, "To actually attack such a Loli girl is simply too beastly. What's even more beastly is that you you actually left your brothers to eat alone! You are not willing to leave any of these two delicious girls to me. You are simply a beast among beasts. " "Your sister eats alone! Zhu Runfa looked at him with a dark look on his face, "Do you really want to attack two little girls?" Brother Batian, where is your moral integrity? " "snort! If you have a girl, you have moral integrity! "Brother Batian said confidently. "If you don't have a girl, how much does your integrity cost per pound? " "¡¡never mind! I'm too lazy to complain to you," Zhu Runfa rolled his eyes, and then said seriously, "Okay! The joke is over! Brother Batian, it¡¯s time for us to get down to business. I just looked at the schedule. Almost every day in the first six days was 1,200 rough stones, but that doesn¡¯t matter. I am sure that I will win enough rough stones. But the important thing is our performance later, which is related to whether we can make money. " "Um! "Brother Batian's face changed when he heard this, and he said solemnly. "Don't worry! I am ready. " "That's good! Zhu Runfa nodded to him and said with the same solemn expression, "Then get ready to start!" " "Wait, wait a minute! "Brother Batian suddenly lost his expression and said pitifully, "Brother Fa, is this really necessary? I always feel like it's like playing monkey, otherwiseit's so interesting. " "Brother Ba Tian! Zhu Runfa patted him on the shoulder and said seriously, "You have to know that stone gambling relies on luck, jade playing is also more traditional, and Bagan believes in Buddhism, so it is necessary to engage in some superstitious activities." Engaging in some superstitious activities will not only make it relatively reasonable for us to take out the jade later, but also get acquainted with some wealthy locals and lay a solid foundation for future jade sales, so" "I understand! Fa Ge! "Brother Batian nodded, "I will definitely perform this play well. " "Good brother, be loyal! Zhu Runfa patted him on the shoulder and said, "I've wronged you." " "nothing! Fa Ge! Brother Batian smiled and said, "As long as you let me know when you meet a girl in the future, or just send me a clone girl." " "Well! Send a cloned girl" Zhu Runfa's face twitched and he laughed dryly, "The cloned girls are also thoughtful. " "Thinking? Brother Batian said happily, "That's better. It's good to have thoughts. If you don't have thoughts, is it still a human being?" " "Ahem! Zhu Runfa laughed dryly and said, "I'm afraid that the cloned girl will look down on you if she has ideas." " "roll! "" Looking at Brother Batian walking towards a piece of jade with an unlucky look on his face, Zhu Runfa straightened his face and shouted in his mind: "Xiaoshan!" That¡¯s it. Scan everyone¡¯s bid amount. The bid amount on the first day should be the lowest. I hope to win at least one-tenth of today¡¯s 1,200 rough stones. " "yes! Scanning and recording have begun," Xiaoshan replied, "If you are willing, you can win all the bids. " "One-tenth is enough! "Zhu Runfa said, "Actually, if we really want to turn all these 120 rough stones into top-quality jadeite, we will probably spend everyone's money. Unfortunately, we can't do this. It's better to keep a low profile. By the way, are you ready for money?" "Yes! Already prepared! "The customer service girl said, "I have selected several bank accounts. I will first transfer a sum of money from them to buy the rough stones. Then, after your jade is sold, I will return it without anyone noticing, and finally transfer everything. Traces erased. Don't worry, no one will find out. " "very good! Then let¡¯s get started! "Zhu Runfa nodded, and then walked to a rough jade stone without saying a word. He first pretended to be a scholar and observed the rough jade stone, then took out a bell from his pocket, and then prepared But at this moment, I heard a loud roar from the side: "Qinglong on the left, White Tiger on the right, Lao Niu in the middle, please invite the God of Wealth, Zhao Gongming!" Upper body! Upper body! Upper body! " "Your sister! Steal my lines! Zhu Runfa's eyes darkened, and he almost fell down in anger, "I'm a Taoist, okay? You, a monk, invited Zhao Gongming to get on you!" "(To be continued)
