Chapter 135 135. One Cut, One Cut, One Cut, One Cut, One Cut
Seeing a large group of people gathered in front, Jinjiu and Fu Hong were both a little curious.
It's just that there were too many people around that they couldn't see what was going on inside.
However, at this time, Lin Qian could take advantage of the fact that she was not a human and float to the front to take a look.
Soon, Lin Qian came back with an excited look on her face.
"Someone is cutting a rough stone ahead. I heard it's worth five million!"
Five million worth of stones is not a low value. You have to know that Jinjiu doesn’t even have three million on her. Although she can have a lot of money if she wants, she doesn’t like to carry too much money on her.
Two or three million would be enough.
"I asked, and it seems like someone bought a piece of material for making a window, spent 5.3 million, and is now cutting the raw stone." Fu Hong walked over from the side.
"Let's go and take a look." Jin Jiu asked Fu Hong to follow him, and then the two of them shuttled quickly through the crowd like fish, and then slowly walked to the front.
During this time, no one around noticed anything wrong.
At this point the raw stone has been cut in half, and judging from the condition of the jade that is revealed, the worst quality is ice type.
There were three people in the center of the encirclement, including a fat man with an excited look on his face. He was the owner of the raw stone.
A tall and thin man is the seller of the raw stone. Although the jade is no longer his, he is very happy. After all, this stone was sold from him. If the price really goes up, it will prove that the materials in his store are good, and then more people will definitely come to buy it.
As for the third person, he is the master who is responsible for cutting the stone.
"Still cutting?" The master wiped the sweat from his forehead and asked the fat man for his opinion.
The fat man nodded without hesitation.
"Tsk! Cut directly from here!" As soon as the words fell, a discordant voice rang out.
"Old Pan, stop cutting. What if it collapses? How about I pay you six million and you give me the stone?" The speaker was a man at the front of the crowd with a somewhat obscene smile.
The owner of the raw stone, who was called Lao Pan, snorted.
"Shut up, skinny monkey! This is definitely a large piece of icy material. Don't be a bad mouth to me. If anything goes wrong, I will be the first one to not let you go!"
Old Pan glared at the skinny monkey with disgust.
The skinny monkey looked unhappy, snorted and said nothing.
Whether it is jade or antiques, it is important to see through it but not speak it out. Some things really cannot be said too much, otherwise it is easy to get into trouble.
Although whether the stone rises or falls has nothing to do with him.
But if he said too much and there was a problem with the jade, the cost would not be just a few thousand or tens of thousands, but a full five million!
When the time comes, no one will sympathize with you when you are put in a sack and beaten.
But even though he didn't say anything, he had already started cursing in his heart.
Old Pan didn't care about these and just continued to urge the chef to cut faster.
The master responded, then cut it directly with a knife as he requested, and splashed water, causing an uproar in the audience.
"Wow! What is this? Marble?"
"Tsk tsk, I think it would have been better to just sell it for six million. That way I could still make a few hundred thousand. Now, if I cut out a piece of marble, five million will become five hundred."
"If you ask me, you really shouldn't buy window material. Nine out of ten windows are scams, and the remaining one is a big scam!"
"That's not true. Some time ago, someone bought window material in the next door market, and it turned out to be a glass-type piece. The value of the piece increased by more than ten times."
The discussions of the people around him made Old Pan, who was already feeling as if he was falling into an icy cave, turn pale in an instant.
But at this moment, someone else wanted to make up for it. "Hahahaha... Old Pan, I told you that you are just a piece of junk. Fortunately, I didn't buy it." The skinny monkey sneered with gloating.
"Shut up!" Old Pan's eyes were red. He couldn't believe what he saw at this moment. He roared at the skinny monkey.
The skinny guy seemed to be frightened by his behavior, fearing that the other party would really chop him with a knife, so he decisively shut up.
But this did not affect his inner mockery.
Old Pan didn't believe it. He looked at the stone cutter and said, "Cut! Keep cutting!"
Although the stone cutter did not know much about gambling on stones, he also understood that the situation was not good at the moment, and his forehead was covered with more cold sweat.
He exhaled, then whispered, "How do I cut it?"
"Here, cut it in half!" At this moment, Lao Pan didn't care whether this cut would affect the jade inside. His only thought now was that the value of this stone must increase! It must increase!
This is five million!
He sold the house secretly without his wife's knowledge to get the money. If he really loses the money, what will happen to his whole family?
Are you going to sleep on the overpass and starve to death?
No!
Absolutely not!
But some things cannot be done just because he says yes or no.
The stone-cutting master opened his mouth, but in the end, fearing that he would get into trouble, he said nothing and just obediently cut the stone according to Lao Pan's request.
The knife was cut quickly, and the result appeared quickly, but Old Pan fainted even faster.
When Lao Pan almost fainted, the shop owner rushed forward to help him.
Old Pan's eyes were red and bloodshot, like a wild beast that wanted to swallow someone. He stared at the gray stone intently. Although he was very reluctant to admit it, he had already sentenced himself to death in his heart...
"Hahahaha...wuwuwuwu..."
“Hahahaha!!! Five million!!! My five million!! Aaaaaah——”
Because of the stimulation, Lao Pan cried and laughed like a madman, and people around him couldn't help but feel some sympathy for him.
Even the skinny monkey, who seemed to be at odds with Lao Pan at the beginning, did not dare to mock him at this time. He even felt a little sorry for Lao Pan.
But despite his sympathy, Skinny Monkey still felt that he deserved it.
He had not forgotten that this guy had secretly bought the raw stone he had ordered while he was away.
The original price of the raw stone was five hundred thousand, but Old Pan spent fifty thousand to buy it from him.
It would have been fine if the material was just ordinary, but in the end a good piece of jade, a glutinous type close to ice type, was produced, which was eventually sold for 1.15 million.
Even though he later came to the door and made a scene, the boss who sold the raw stone knew he was in the wrong and was afraid of affecting his reputation, so he gave him the 50,000 yuan that Lao Panduo had given him, but he was still very angry.
If it wasn’t Lao Pan, the person who could have earned six hundred thousand for free would have been me!
That’s six hundred thousand!
Compared with 600,000, what is 50,000?
But by then things had come to this point, Lao Pan had already sold the stone, and there was nothing he could do.
But now that he saw that Lao Pan had lost a full five million, he was almost laughing to death.
Live it!
If you steal something from others, you will have to return it eventually!
Fu Hong was also a little sad when he saw this scene.
"Sure enough, gambling on stones is like this. As long as the word 'gambling' is involved, it can easily cost someone's life."
The saying "One knife makes you poor, one knife makes you rich, one knife makes you wear sackcloth, and one knife makes you a villa" is very reasonable.
But there are only a few people who can really get rich by gambling on stones. Instead, many people who don’t understand think they can get rich overnight by doing this.
