In the days when I was forced to become a Feng Shui master

Yu Ning went to the souvenir shop next door and bought two postcards, one was printed with the words 'Dating without marriage is a hooligan'. After thinking about it, postcards seem to be liked by women more , Put it down again, went to buy a few large bags of pastries, jerky, first-class snacks and stuffed them into the backpack.

Opposite the shop that sells cakes is a shop that sells jade wares. There are a few stones at the door, but this shop is a bit more expensive than the shop in front. The ones at the door cost 200 yuan a piece. After walking around, it was fine to see that there were no stones with special aura, and went directly into the store.

As soon as you enter the door, there is a bright red banner hanging in the most eye-catching position you can see when you enter the door. It reads: "Gambling with stones is risky, please be cautious when buying", and then there are prices for various colored stones.

Half of the store is selling woolen materials, and a few customers gathered around the corner to watch and cut stones, and there was a burst of applause from time to time.Yu Ning was also very curious, and went up to watch.

The one who was cutting the stone was an old man with white hair and beard, but his hands were unusually steady, and he could still see the muscles of the opponent through his undershirt.The piece of wool in his hand was only the size of a palm, and the rapidly spinning blade seemed like an arm to him. When Yu Ning looked at it, a piece of stone that was as thin as paper was just unloaded by him.

The old man sprinkled some water on the wool, took a flashlight to shine a light on it, shook his head and said, "Should I still cut it? It's not good, and it would be risky to cut it any further."

The stone cut out by him can also be said to be jade meat. Anyway, it looks much better than the few pieces that Yuning just cut out. The small piece below is a dull turquoise color. , but can see a little like the color of spring water.

"The crack here may have been eaten in. If you don't cut it, you can take a gamble with this rock and cut it down. If the crack really goes in, you can only make some small pieces for fun."

The owner of the stone wiped his sweat and said hastily, "No more cutting, no more cutting, that's all."

The old man nodded, wiped the lime on the wool with a towel, and handed it back to the owner of the stone. Immediately, someone went up and asked for it. After looking at it for a while, he said, "Is it possible to get 3 yuan?"

The owner of the stone thought for a while, then nodded, and the two immediately took out their mobile phones, one transferred money and the other received money, and the transaction was considered successful.

Yu Ning was curious. Passing by a store just now, he thought that all the stores on this Fengqing Street were scammers——there are more or less jadeites in the stones, but they are all of the kind that even if you take them out, you can’t make much money. Waste of money, the kind that the store can make a profit without losing money... I didn't expect this store to cut out any good things?

The crowd dispersed, and Yu Ning stopped watching, and went to look at the stones in the store seriously.This store is much more professional than the one just now. At least woolen materials are divided into several areas. There are areas that cost 100 yuan no matter how big or small. There are also areas that are calculated by weight. The most expensive piece of stone The price is clearly marked at 1000 yuan per kilogram.

Yuning took a look, and sure enough, most of the stones with the most prominent aura are concentrated in this area.

He was not in a hurry, he just wandered around the shop, watching people buy stones to cut.He was followed by a middle-aged man, wearing a Tang suit, with a big belly and a smile on his face, like a kind person.He rummaged for a long time with a small flashlight in the area of ​​100 yuan per kilogram, and finally made a mark with a marker pen on a stone about the size of a washbasin, and then asked someone to pay the bill.

The waiter pulled a small trolley over, moved the stone up, followed the middle-aged man in different areas and moved several stones onto the trolley, and then went to check out.

Suddenly the middle-aged man turned around and waved to Yu Ning: "Little brother, come here."

Yu Ning pointed at himself, the other party nodded with a smile, Yu Ning stepped forward and said, "What's the matter?"

"Oh, it's not a big deal." The middle-aged man casually pointed to the wool area next to him: "Little brother, I want to buy another piece of wool, please help me choose one!"

"Me?" Yu Ning shook his head, declined and said: "I don't understand this, I just watch the excitement."

"It's good if you don't understand! If you don't understand!" The middle-aged man said with a smile: "You can just help me pick a piece, whichever one is more pleasing to the eye, and it doesn't matter if you cut it well. I'll send you a red envelope if it goes up!"

Yu Ning was a little puzzled, what is the reason for this?

When the person who was paying the bill heard this, he turned around and said, "Old Kang, you are so unkind!"

"Go, go, what's so unkind! I just asked someone to do me a favor!" The middle-aged man laughed and scolded: "Don't make trouble for me!"

"Is there any explanation for this?" Yu Ning asked curiously.

"Hi! That's it!" Lao Kang explained: "There is a saying in our industry that the luck is better when playing with stones for the first time, so I want to take advantage of your luck to gamble!"

Yuning suddenly realized: "So it's like this... It's a pity that it's not the first time I bought it. I just bought a few yuan for fun at the store in front."

When the two heard it, they became energetic: "Little brother, have you already bought it? Did you cut it out?"

Yuning took out the piece of bean-seed jade that he had just cut out from his bag: "This... 200% off for [-] yuan, the other two pieces are not very good, so this one cost me [-] yuan."

Lao Kang stretched out his hand, and Yu Ning handed him the emerald in his hand like a gracious hand. He looked at it and said, "Did someone tell you that your cut price has skyrocketed, and this stone can be sold for two or three thousand?"

"That's right." Yu Ning nodded: "It looks pretty good to me."

Yu Ning knows that the value of bean-seed jadeite is not high, but he has no idea how much it is worth - after all, at Mr. Mei's end, even the best imperial green jadeite bracelets are only worth a thousand pieces Silver, ice species will not exceed a hundred taels, and it is not as valuable as waiting for big gold. Considering inflation and non-renewable jadeite resources, even if silver taels are converted, there is no reference value.

So the young man who cut the stone just now believed that the bean seed could be worth two or three thousand.

"Hey, listen to their nonsense. Bean seeds are easy to produce. Although this one is quite big and there is no crack, but the base is black and gray, and the color is blue-black. If it is dead, it will only cost 300 yuan—— Someone has to be willing to accept it, and even if you get this kind of material, it can be used to sell beads or something, and you can’t sell it for much money.” Lao Kang pointed to the outermost glass cabinet of this shop: “Do you see that there is no , it’s all bean seeds, you’ll know the price when you go over there.”

When Lao Kang said this, he simply took Yu Ning and asked him to look at it. Yu Ning followed and walked over to see that there were about thirty or forty bracelets in the outermost glass cabinet, as well as pendants, bracelets and so on. , the most expensive is a bracelet, although it is not transparent at all, but the color is very good, there is a touch of rich emerald green on the top of the bracelet, the price of such a bracelet is more than 1.

Further down are turquoise bracelets. There are six or seven thousand bracelets everywhere. The worst is the bracelet in a small box. There are all kinds of colors. There is a sign on the outside, one hundred and one string.

Yuning looked at the bracelet in the box, and had to admit that such a bead could beat the bean seed he opened in terms of color, and immediately understood the value of the bean seed, and said, "So that's how it is. ..."

When he looked at the bean seed again, he felt like throwing him away. After all, it was a rock, and it was quite heavy to carry it all the time.

Lao Kang returned the bean seeds to him, waved his hand and said, "Tuition fees, everyone in this industry has paid them before, don't be discouraged, just buy less and watch more, and you can understand a little more after paying tuition fees a few more times... A party is not as easy as the rumors outside."

"Thank you." Yu Ning thanked him sincerely, not because of this stone, but if someone is willing to remind him, it is already very good.

Lao Kang smiled and said, "If you want to thank me, just pick a piece for me?"

"It's not the first time I bought it, so luck should be gone, right? Is this okay?" Yu Ning thought for a while, then asked in a low voice: "Can this kind of store really produce good things?"

"I know the owner of this shop, and he's also a stone gambling enthusiast. Let's not talk about it... At least be honest and don't do anything pretentious. If you're lucky, you can still gamble." Lao Kang said: "I Just looking at you, kid, I think you are destined for me, and you don't have much money, so choose!"

Yuning nodded, scanned the venue, and directly picked the stone with the best aura in the Qianyuan District: "That one."

This stone is not too big, it weighs about five or six catties by visual inspection. Lao Kang didn't feel sorry for the 3000 yuan, so he went up to pick it up, ran to pay the bill, turned around and went to the place where he knew the stone, and greeted the master Come to explain the stone.

The old master waved his hand: "I'm smoking, Axi, you go get it."

"Don't!" Lao Kang shouted at the old master: "Don't, you just smoke, I just wait!"

"I'll take a break, Axi, you go."

The young man next to the master responded, took a cigarette and walked in: "Master Kang, my master has finally been free for a while, and I will be busy soon! Just let me do it, and I promise not to cut it badly for you."

Lao Kang curled his lips: "It's okay."

The young man responded, took the stone and shook it, and asked, "Would you like to open a line?"

Lao Kang held the pen and drew a line in the middle: "Just open it like this!"

When Yu Ning saw this line, he shook his head in his heart, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop him: "Don't drive here, move a little to the side..."

Lao Kang looked at Yuning and said, "Success, little brother, are you here?"

Yuning stepped forward to touch a handful of wool, estimated the range of the aura, and then drew a line in a corner: "Here, just cut from here."

The aura inside the stone is probably on the right side of the middle, and the best place for the aura is in the center. If he cut it in the middle, he wouldn't know for sure, but obviously the aura would be cut in two.

The young man looked at the line drawn by Yu Ning. Although it was in the corner, a big window could be opened with the knife, so he didn't object. The young man nodded when he saw Lao Kang, and went to solve it with a stone.

Not long after, this piece of stone was unloaded. Lao Kang hurriedly stepped forward to see that there was an atomized zone inside the unloaded stone, and it looked a little moist and delicate. Looking at the other half, Lao Kang Holding the stone, Kang laughed three times, and quickly shouted to the old man who was smoking outside the door: "Master Liu! Come and see, Master Liu! It's gone up! It's a big price!"

The old master outside the door was smoking a second cigarette, and he didn't step on the cigarette when he heard the words, so he walked over, biting his cigarette and holding a flashlight to look at it, and a gleam of joy flashed in his cloudy eyes: "Big rise. "

Yuning also leaned over to look, and saw that the watered stone showed a blue-gray bottom, very clear, and when the flashlight was turned on, it looked like a pool of clear water, Lao Kang laughed Said: "Sure enough, if you just entered the industry, you are lucky! I must give you a thick red envelope! Young people, look! This is a standard ice species! It is still blue! As long as it does not crack, it is Big rise! Lao Kang, I have been in the stone gambling circle for so many years, and this is the first time I cut out such a material by myself!"

The young man also looked happy, rubbed his hands together and asked, "Do you still want to cut it?"

Master Liu motioned for him to get up: "Cut! Of course you have to cut, Ah Xi, get out of the way, I'll do it!"

"Oh, Cheng, master!" The young man stepped aside, and Master Liu looked at Lao Kang with his pen in his hand: "Master Kang, do you still want to cut it?"

"You always said to cut it, how can I not cut it?! Cut it—! Dig it out!" Lao Kang said excitedly.

Master Liu nodded, drew a few strokes on the wool material, and started to untie it without asking him. After about ten minutes, a complete piece of jade meat was pulled out from the stone material.This piece of jade meat weighs about three to four catties, but with just a little water, it can be fully illuminated by the sunlight coming in from outside the store, just like a piece of blue-gray ice. The color base is not eaten, and it gradually becomes white at the other end of the wool.

Lao Kang grabbed Yuning's arm, his face was flushed with excitement, and he was sweating: "It's rising—it's rising! There's no crack at all!"

The old master lit another cigarette and took a deep puff: "Good stuff, Lao Kang, you missed it... I didn't expect such a material to be cut out in the shop."

To know what material is what price.Before purchasing, the source of goods will screen the wool dozens of times, and what kind of performance corresponds to what price. If the source of goods is not sure, they would rather cut it themselves than sell it in low-end materials like this.When you arrive at the second store, the store will also classify it again, cut the wool that performs well or put it in a higher price range and inform relatives and friends to buy it. It is almost impossible for ordinary customers to miss it.

As long as he took it out, Yu Ning would be able to understand whether this piece of jade is a good one or not, just by looking at its performance against the sunlight just now, he knew it was a good thing.He smiled slightly, and his expression was a little satisfied.

Lao Kang took out his mobile phone with one hand, took Yuning with the other and said, "Come on, take out your mobile phone, and I will send you a red envelope! The big one!"

Yu Ning didn't refuse, so he took out his mobile phone and turned on the payment code. After a ding dong, it reminded him that he had received a transfer of 5000 yuan.Just as Yu Ning wanted to thank him, more than a dozen text messages popped up on his phone one after another, all of which were transfers of 5000 yuan.Lao Kang reminded: "Hurry up and accept it! You're welcome!"

"Is this a bit too much?" Yu Ning asked, 20, even if this stone can be sold for 500 million, that's 4%.

Lao Kang waved his hand: "Okay, take it quickly, I'm afraid of being ashamed if I give this!"

The teacher asked: "How much did I give you? According to the rules, 10% is given. Master Kang, don't bully people who don't understand the rules."

"Hey, I haven't sold it yet! I remember the payment code! I'll make up for it when it's sold!" Master Kang said with a smile on his face: "Besides, I won't sell it. Be a family heirloom! More face!"

"It's okay if you don't sell it." The old master nodded, and asked him with squinted eyes: "Shall I take advantage of my luck and solve everything else?"

"Forget it, I'll go back and get it done slowly."

Yuning tilted her head and thought for a while, so this stone can be sold for at least 200 million?It's not bad either.

Now Yuning probably knows that he can get to know the inner nature of jadeite wool through the aura field, not to mention other things, it is a good way to make money, he is short of money now, but he can get two yuan to change hands - Zhou Zhou Huang's master, Master Luo, and Boss Wang can resell these, so they are not bad for sale.

Yuning originally wanted to leave, because he had already selected the best woolen materials for Lao Kang in this store, and there were no more good things in the future. Unexpectedly, Master Liu, who explained the stone, suddenly said: "There are still a batch of good materials in the future. Take it out, Master Kang, do you and this kid want to go and have a look?"

Master Kang showed a look of struggle, and said with a bitter face: "You see that I have developed, and I will not give up until I empty it out!"

"Are you going to go or not?"

"Go, go!" Lao Kang turned his head and asked Yuning: "Little brother, do you want to go and see together?"

When Yu Ning heard it, he fell in love with it, nodded and said, "Okay."

"Success, then you come with me." The old master stood up and led them to the back of the store. Lao Kang reminded Yu Ning: "Little brother, you can take a look in a while. It’s luck that makes the bet go up, if the boss buys it indiscriminately, I’m afraid you won’t be able to keep much of the 20 I just gave you.”

"I know, don't worry." Yu Ning replied.

The old master took them to a small room behind the shop. The light was not turned on in the room, and the old master didn't intend to turn on the light, and there was a smell similar to rotten pickles.The old master said to them: "Look for yourself, [-] yuan per kilogram."

Lao Kang was stunned: "Are you taking out your savings for many years?"

Yuning looked at the darkness and asked, "Aren't you going to turn on the light?"

"Don't turn it on." Lao Kang touched a flashlight to Yuning: "There are rules, good materials just don't turn on the light, you can only look at it slowly."

Yu Ning really doesn't understand the reason for this rule, but to be honest, it doesn't make much difference to him whether to turn on the light or not, so it doesn't matter.On the other hand, Lao Kang, exclaiming and screaming for a while, his excitement was beyond words, he took a flashlight here, looked here and there, touched it, and it seemed that every piece was fine.

The same is true in Yuning's eyes.

The aura performance of each piece here is better than that of the previous ones in the shop—but no matter how good it is, he thought that the piece he picked for Old Kang in the front belonged to the tall ones among the short ones, but when it arrived Looking at it here, only two or three yuan is better than the one he saw before. There are many Taoist priests of the same level, and the worst thing is that the aura is almost zero.

Almost none, that is to say, there is almost no emerald in this stone.

After looking at it for a while, Yuning could feel it clearly, and didn't bother to look any further. There were no stools in the room, so he found a slightly flat stone and sat down on it, waiting for Lao Kang to finish picking.

Because it was too boring, Yuning also counted all the stones here, and classified them according to the performance of the aura. There was a piece with a particularly good aura—the one under his buttocks, about one meter square, according to this size It can be seen that the value of this piece is very considerable, and it is close to 5000 million.The second best has three pieces, one is very small and about the size of a palm, the other two are as big as a washbasin, and the rest is a sudden increase in quantity, the third best is 72 yuan, and the fourth best is 120 yuan. No, there are six yuan.

About an hour later, Lao Kang finished his selection, walked up to Yuning and asked, "Have you taken a fancy to it?"

Yuning nodded, stood up and used a red pen to draw a five-pointed star on the rock under his butt, and then drew a five-pointed star on another palm-sized one, waved his hand and said, "How do you settle this? "

"Let's go out first, Master Liu will get it for us."

"En." Yu Ning responded, and followed Lao Kang out of the small black room.Once out of the house, Yuning was touched by the fresh air, then took out her mobile phone and said to Lao Kang, "Let me tell my family, the one I'm looking at is a bit expensive."

Lao Kang looked Yu Ning up and down, frowned and said: "You are a newcomer, just buy a small one for fun... I think the one you picked is too big, and you can't take it down if it is less than 5000 million... …This amount of money is not small, so we must do what we can.”

It's no wonder that Lao Kang felt that Yu Ning's family couldn't afford the money, and many small and medium-sized entrepreneurs might not be able to come up with 5000 million working capital.Yu Ning has no other accessories on her body. There are 51 sweatshirts from Taobao, 60 yuan pair of trousers, and a pair of 30 yuan sandals.

"It's okay, I still have this little money." Yuning smiled, and handed over all his money to Lan Xiao, but he never thought about asking Lan Xiao for money, instead he called Boss Wang Ask him to borrow the money.

Boss Wang didn't ask any more questions, knowing that Yu Ning wanted money, even though the money belonged to most of his current liquidity, he would transfer it to him without a second thought.Yu Ning thanked him, but he didn't panic at all and still didn't pay the money.

At worst, he would have the money if he went back and searched for a few magical artifacts to sell. Boss Wang didn't lack anything, except the magical artifacts.

About ten minutes later, the notice of the transfer arrived. Generally speaking, such huge transfers require advance notice to the bank. I don’t know how Boss Wang managed to transfer the money to him within ten minutes. It should be Have your own way.

The old master also came out here, followed by a few guys who used two carts to pull out the stones belonging to Lao Kang and Yu Ning respectively, and brought a scale over. He first asked Yuning: "Little friend, We have to pay after the scale here, the stone you picked is a bit expensive, 5 yuan per kilogram, and at least 5000 million here, you can’t mess around.”

Yuning took out her bank card: "Then I should pay a deposit first?"

The old master took out the POS machine, entered a number and handed it to Yu Ning, who swiped the card, and the amount prompt was 500 million.Seeing that Yu Ning's expression remained unchanged and he didn't care about it at all, Lao Kang shook his head and said, "It's really hidden."

Yuning blinked, pointing to the pile of stones that Lao Kang selected: "Aren't you too?"

The old master waved his hand, and signaled the guys to weigh the stones on both sides. The palm-sized stone was less than one kilogram, so the old master gave Yuning a waiver, and the total was 800 million.As for Lao Kang, the total is 300 million.

Both parties settled the accounts smoothly, and the master asked, "Do you want to settle?"

Lao Kang pointed to the big rock and said, "Why don't you untangle that big rock to open my eyes?"

"No." Yu Ning shook his head: "Can it be mailed? I'm from S City, so I can send it back and find someone to do it myself."

The old master didn't object, and said bluntly that there was no problem, Yu Ning picked up the small stone and said, "Let's solve this one."
