God of Gamblers reborn in action
Chapter 55 Not a Perfect Ending
When the two returned to the venue, Jie Shi had already reached the last batch. According to Cupid's calculations, there should be no possibility of threatening Si Tu's ranking.
"It's a pity that the first two rough stones dragged down too much, and the energy value of No. 49 was even deducted. If it weren't for this, you would be more than No. 2." Cupid said dissatisfiedly: "You are only short of No. 1 sea sand." The energy value of five kilograms of hibiscus jade."
Situ shrugged: "I'm already very satisfied with No.2."
Neither disqualified nor as conspicuous as No.1.
"I checked Du Haisha's records. This time, she performed exceptionally well. Two pieces of glass, one piece of high ice, and two pieces of hibiscus. Just this time, the points should be enough to earn her the title of Emerald Lover." Keep it for another year."
Si Tu suddenly had an idea, if he had won such a shameful title, he might deliberately bet on poor rough stones to lower his points.
Chu Hao suddenly said: "Speaking of which, I was thinking about whether to contact you with the youth training class of the Stone Gambler Association, but now it seems that it is unnecessary."
"You mean the one that Haisha, Chuyan and the others attended?" Si Tu felt extremely uncomfortable when he thought that he would have to attend class with this group of little kids: "Don't contact me for me, even if I don't become Master Yuan student, I am also planning to take the Stone Gambler exam directly."
Chu Hao smiled and said, "Okay, okay, I promise you, I won't make arrangements for you."
"Beep", a message came from the optical brain.
Si Tu glanced at it, got up and said, "All the participants are required to gather, I'll go first."
"Okay, good luck."
After a few minutes, most of the participants arrived at the backstage, and some knew that they had no hope, so they gave up and didn't show up.
A staff member announced everyone's grades and rankings, and in the end only three names were called to be interviewed by Master Yuan.
Hai Sha and Si Tu were naturally included, but the third place was actually Chu Yan who was ranked seventh.
While everyone was astonished, Chu Yan herself had a look of disbelief, and the original No.3 immediately jumped out unconvinced: "Why? Didn't we agree to see the energy value?"
The staff said: "This is Master Yuan's decision. If you have any doubts, you can question Master Yuan yourself."
That person's arrogance was instantly extinguished. No one wanted to offend a master stone gambler, because the price would be too high for ordinary people to bear.
In a different world, it can be said that the more advanced the technology, the more advanced jade is needed, and the only ones who can provide these are the stone gamblers. In order to avoid being squeezed by research institutes or businessmen, the stone gamblers are very united, The association is the greatest guarantee. If the interests of any of the stone gamblers are harmed, the stone gamblers of the entire association will avenge them. Although they can't carry it on their shoulders, as long as the supply of jadeite is interrupted, there will be a large number of stone gamblers. people lend a helping hand.
The staff brought the three of Si Tu to the lounge and arranged for them: "Miss Chu Yan, please come with me to see Master Yuan first, and the other two please wait here for a while."
After Chu Yan left, Si Tu and Hai Sha stared at each other for a long time.
"What's the situation? Why do I feel like this posture isn't over yet?" Haisha broke his ground first, and his tone was full of dissatisfaction: "I've been waiting here for so long, and it's not over yet."
Si Tu very much agrees with this point, and it will be dark in a while, I really don't know how long Master Yuan, who doesn't play cards according to common sense, will be tossing around.
But he went out twice halfway, so now he doesn't feel too uncomfortable.
So Si Tu just replied perfunctorily: "It shouldn't take long."
Suddenly fell into a quiet atmosphere.
Time passed minute by minute.
Haisha suddenly said: "I heard."
"...What?" Si Tu was half a beat behind to react.
"I heard from Xiao Yan about the matter of rough stone No. 53."
Si Tu reckoned that Chu Yan would not tell the truth, and it was very possible to shift the responsibility to him, so he said sarcastically, "So you also think I should have told her earlier that the rough stone was a fake?"
"That's not what I meant." Haisha became anxious: "I didn't say anything wrong with you. The Stone Gambling Club is based on its own ability, but Xiao Yan is really not very good..."
"not too good?"
"She said, seeing you looking at that piece of rough stone, she thought it was Master Yuan who told you in advance that he was interested in this piece, so she bought it first. I know she must have misunderstood, although she has also been taught a lesson. But she did make a mistake, so I apologize on her behalf, I'm sorry."
Si Tu was silent for a while before saying: "She is not wrong, I did know in advance the rough stone that Master Yuan is looking for."
Haisha was shocked: "Then you deliberately lied to Xiaoyan..."
"I didn't lie to her. What Master Yuan told me is number 53."
Mistrust was revealed in Hai Sha's eyes, and it was no wonder that the No. 51 and No. 52 rough stones that Si Tu bought produced top-quality jadeite, but the No. 53 rough stone collapsed. According to common sense, it would not be such a coincidence.
"Anyway, this is Xiaoyan's own fault." Haisha turned her eyes away, hesitated for a while before saying: "The Xiaoyan in my impression is not like she is now, I..."
The door of the room was opened, and the previous staff member said at the door: "Miss Du Haisha, please follow me."
Hai Sha got up, bowed to Si Tu and walked towards the door.
Si Tu looked at the time, about 10 minutes had passed since Chu Yan left the house.
After about 15 minutes, the staff came back again.
This is the third time that Si Tu has met Master Yuan, and only this time the other party is the image of a real mustache.
"Oh, here it is, not bad." Master Yuan said, "Sit down, we have met several times."
Si Tu sat down opposite Master Yuan, and the two of them were separated by a long table, not far away. Since Master Yuan didn't have that aggressive aura at all, Si Tu also chose a relaxed sitting posture.
Unexpectedly, what the other party said next had nothing to do with ease.
"I saw the rough stone you chose, and to be honest, there is nothing special about it." Master Yuan said: "If it was according to my standards, I would not accept you. Your rough stone will either rise or collapse. Compared with such an exciting situation, I prefer balanced students."
Si Tu yelled in his heart, he had never thought that Master Yuan was such a type, and he had previously said that Master Yuan paid more attention to gambling and risks, but it seems that this is not necessarily the case.
"However, what I'm most curious about is," Master Yuan said, "Why didn't you buy the No. 53 rough stone?"
Si Tu was about to say something, but Master Yuan stretched out his hand to signal him, so he had to shut his mouth.
"I've seen the surveillance video. You don't seem to want to buy this rough stone. Although the little girl violated the rules, she seems to be luckier than you."
Si Tu's heart was full of shit, Master Yuan had already said what he said, so what else could he quibble about?
Master Yuan looked at Si Tu with great interest: "I think it's very strange, do you think the vision of a tenth-level stone gambling master is not trustworthy, or do you think I'm just lying to you kids?"
In view of the master's previous behavior, it is not impossible to play them purely.
But having said all this, Si Tu didn't dare to tell too much of a lie now, so he could only half-truth and half-truth said: "To be honest, there are two reasons why I didn't buy the No. 53 rough stone. , I found that there are traces of fraud on this rough stone."
Si Tu took a sneak look at Master Yuan's face, there was nothing unusual, and then continued: "I have a little understanding of the forgery, and I can probably see that the good performance of this rough stone is through some means... "
Si Tu mentioned all his relevant knowledge, and finally he did not forget to conclude: "I learned all this when I was living in Area F. After all, the environment dictates it. .”
Master Yuan hummed without expressing anything, but asked, "Is there another reason?"
"The second reason is that at that time...the money was too small."
This is entirely true. At that time, Si Tu only had more than 1 million funds, and a piece of rough stone cost 5000 million, which was really too much for him.
"Oh? You can choose to let the merchant pay for it."
"I don't have a contract with the merchant yet, and I just married the young master of the Chu family. The daily expenses are really too high, so..."
Master Yuan laughed loudly when he heard the words: "My boy, you can figure this out."
This matter is indeed seen by the benevolent and the wise. Most people would think that a poor boy from the F district would marry the young master of the Chu family, that would be to fly on a branch and become a phoenix. But only the authorities know what the truth is. up.
Si Tu returned a shy smile.
"Okay, even if this matter is exposed, I will ask you one last question. If you were given another choice now, would you buy the No. 53 rough stone?"
Master Yuan stood up and pushed the chair aside, revealing the rough stone No. 53 that was blocked by the chair before.
To be precise, it is the part in the middle after the solution is finished.
Master Yuan caressed this rough stone, as if looking at his lover: "Do you know why I told you about this rough stone?"
Looking at this pitch-black rough stone, Si Tufu felt in his heart for a moment.
"It's because you—"
because of him--
"I gambled on the edge stone."
I can see the edge stone.
Situ took a deep breath.
Master Yuan stared at Si Tu's every move, and asked again: "Answer me now, kid, if you had another chance, would you buy this rough stone?"
Yes, or not?
"I'm sorry, Master Yuan." Si Tu said without a word, "If it's now, it depends on Master Yuan's asking price."
Master Yuan's mustache twitched: "Oh? What if it's still 5000 million?"
"Then I think, I will buy it." Si Tu said with a smile: "After all, I have sufficient funds now."
Master Yuan's expression changed: "Why? You also think the rest are still worth betting on?"
Noticing the word "also", Si Tu's eyes flickered: "It's nothing, my intuition."
"It's a pity that the first two rough stones dragged down too much, and the energy value of No. 49 was even deducted. If it weren't for this, you would be more than No. 2." Cupid said dissatisfiedly: "You are only short of No. 1 sea sand." The energy value of five kilograms of hibiscus jade."
