Power and Wealth

At 9: 20 in the morning, Dong Xuebin flipped out a shoulder backpack from the drawer under the wardrobe and packed 110,000 yuan of the last time he could have sold ancient books into the bag, and went downstairs to the Industrial and Commercial Bank on the east side of the road to collect money. However, this branch office was relatively small, and the transaction of more than 50,000 cash had to be booked one day in advance. If he wanted to collect 100,000 yuan, Dong Xuebin would have been lazy enough to run to the branch north of the bridge. 50,000 yuan would have been enough. A total of 160,000 yuan would have been enough. He took the money into the schoolbag. He took a jacket collar and took a taxi to the ancient road, came to the old goods market of Pan Home in South Sanhuan, and searched for a place to sell hair along the wall end of the family.

“Boss, do you have any jade wool? ”

“No, we'll sell the finished product here. Ask somewhere else. ”

“Boss, can you gamble here? ”

“Yo, no this. ”

“Boss, do you know where we can gamble? ”

“Gambling stone, Pan Jiayuan doesn't seem to have much, if you really want to play, you better go to Haidian Chaoyang side, there is a special auction every week for the fur, the price is right, the quality of the materials is also high.” Dong Xuebin also knew that there was an auction place in the ancient playtown on Haidian's end, but the process there was to look at the materials first and then pay the auction price, the last step was to open the materials, the middle time was wasted a lot, short six minutes was not even enough time to hold the card auction, so Dong Xuebin looked at the ordinary bulk account transaction from the beginning.

Go, go, look, ask.

Suddenly, the chipper squeaked from afar.

As soon as Dong Xuebin's eyes lit up, he had seen others gambling stones at work before, so the sound was perfectly clear. He looked up and immediately walked over. But when he stood in front of and behind the store door, what made Dong Xuebin slightly smile was that the material he was bending over and cutting with the cutter was not jade wool. Look at the color and shape, it seemed to be crystal stone, natural crystal stone. Betting crystals? This is really unusual, Dong Xuebin hesitated and looked curiously. Gambling crystals, gambling onions, gambling turquoise, gambling seeds, gambling jade, these can all be collectively called gambling stones, so Dong Xuebin doesn't necessarily have to choose jade wool or tamarind seeds, gambling crystals can also play small beats.

The sound of the cutting machine stopped and a large window was opened on the side of the purple crystal stone.

The seller was a young couple, and the girl asked, "Is this good? How much can you sell? ”

“The colors are average inside.” Some slightly fat bosses put down their cutting machines and take a look at the stones, "worth $1,800. ”

“Five grand for a thousand dollars?” The girl slapped her boyfriend in the face, "I told you not to buy it. Don't buy it. Look, you lost the bet, right?” It is said that gambling stones are ten to nine losses. Although gambling crystals are not as risky as gambling emeralds, they are not much different. It is normal to fall and collapse. If you can really spend 5,000 yuan to open a tens of thousands of yuan of raw stones, that would be a little unusual. Plus, Beijing is not a professional gambling stone place. Most raw stones are shipped from the origin and main raw stone sales locations to pick up the remaining "residue rice”, so the chances of rising are even smaller.

Over there, the boy had a little face, heard his girlfriend complaining, and suddenly bit his teeth, "This and that! Two more! ”

Girl's airway: “Don't buy it! I can't do anything with that money! ”

Boys don't listen, they have to pay fat bosses to cut stones.

“Well, it was just cut.” The fat boss grips the cutting machine, turns the switch on to make the gear squeak, then holds the stone steady and rubs the surface of the stone with the gear a little bit. Crystals are harder than emeralds, so crystal stones are cut relatively faster than emerald wool.

One knife...

Five knives...

Ten knives...

Squeaky, after a while, a big, small and two colorless crystal stones opened up, the big one with bubbles, basically wiped off, not worth a few bucks, the small one is not a big problem, just flat colored, and not worth the price he bought.

In the quarrel, the couple left with a raw stone in their arms.

Shortly afterwards, an elderly little old man arrived and spent 10,000 yuan buying a rather large yellow crystal. As a result, there was a small nail cap size impurity inside, and this 10,000 yuan counted as water drifting. At eleven o'clock, another call looked like a tourist had bought four or five natural crystal stones. The best one was flat, that is, the price was equal to the selling price, but the other three or four pieces lost all.

This is the gambling stone. Losers are always far more than winners. Success or failure depends on one luck.

Dong Xuebin looked a little faint. After looking at it for so long, I haven't seen anyone make money. Can I really do it myself?

“Little brother, you want to try it?” The fat boss looked at him with a towel and wiped his hands.

Dong Xuebin, who stood at the door, was not ready to do it. He shook his head. He first stepped into the store and looked at the crystal ornaments in the glass stand, pointing to some of them and listening to the market. "How much is this pink crystal necklace? What about Purple Crystal Guanyin? Twenty grand? 130,000?" They range from a dozen pieces to a hundred thousand pieces. They vary in color, size, vibrancy, purity, and price.

“Finished goods are expensive.” Fat boss seduces: “Want to play gambling stone? It's ready to be rich overnight! ”

Dong Xuebin smiled without saying a word. If he doesn't speak in his heart, he can still give up his family!

After lunch, Dong Xuebin went back to the crystal store, spent an hour watching and learning, gradually gaining a general understanding of the value of gambling crystals and crystals. Simply put, natural purple crystals are more expensive than natural yellow crystals, natural yellow crystals are more expensive than natural colorless crystals, colors are more expensive than light colors, colors are more expensive than complex colors, purity is less expensive than purity, weight is less expensive than weight, the original stones that can make crystal balls are more expensive than crystal stones of the same color and weight. Inside, hair is more expensive than hair without hair, hair smooth and hair messy.

Knowing these, Dong Xuebin probably had a contour in his heart, and began to pinch the watch to calculate the time needed to solve a crystal stone. A little rubbing from the edge would take a long time, 10 minutes would be it, 15 minutes would be it, but if the raw stone was cut off a large side without taking into account the loss of material and other circumstances, the time would still be relatively fast, that is, a few dozen seconds, after all, harder than emerald wool.

Ten minutes later, everything is calculated.

Dong Xuebin took a deep breath, OK! Let's do it!
