Chapter 47 : Win the game, share the money.
Chi chi...
The roar of the stone disintegrator continued to stimulate everyone's eardrums. The burly man took twice as long as the others to successfully take out the first fist-sized piece of high-ice, sun-green jade. However, this guy played a trick and covered the jade with red velvet, preparing to save it for the last show. This fellow wiped his sweat and fixed the raw material marked No. 2. This time, the line was drawn in the center, so it was clear whether there was jade in the two halves. This kind of raw material was also the easiest to solve.
The saw blade fell and cut straight to the bottom. With a snap, the two pieces of wool separated, and two evenly distributed green leaves jumped into view.
" What a huge piece of golden thread seed. Judging from this head, I'm afraid it weighs dozens of kilograms..." Someone below the stage started to comment on the jade.
" This gold seed has a good head. In terms of value, it's not bad compared to the ice seed material that No. 18 just solved."
"We'll just wait for the auction to end. When the time comes, we'll be able to win a few good water-growing materials."
There were many opinions below the stage. Unknowingly, No. 18 and No. 56 were regarded as the favorites to win this time. In comparison, No. 18, who had a high-grade ice jade as the bottom, had a higher chance of winning. This was all because the strong man who cut the stone deliberately covered a high-grade ice jade.
The burly man seemed to enjoy the feeling of being noticed. After taking out the two Gold Thread Seeds, he took a few gulps of mineral water. At this time, the stone disintegrator on the table stopped one after another. There was still a raw stone beside the burly man that had not been touched.
After drinking the water, the burly man took a deep breath and quickly fixed the last piece of raw material. He cut it along the line.
Pa! A thick piece of stone separated from the raw material, revealing a layer of crystalline white fog. The burly man watered the cut surface and slowly replaced it with a grinding wheel to wipe the stone.
Everyone's eyes were focused on the last piece of jade. Even Bai Shengjun was no exception. He had been nervous when he took out a large piece of golden thread jade. Fortunately, he didn't pay attention to the first piece of jade. When he saw the burly man rubbing the stone, his heart was in his throat. He only hoped that he would take out a middle-grade jade this time...
Meng Shicheng also secretly sweated. His eyes stared at the joint between the grinding wheel and the raw material without blinking. When a hint of intoxicating green entered his eyes, he finally smiled.
" Glass Emperor Green..." A surprised voice rang out, completely destroying Bai Shengjun's hope. His body swayed, and his white face lost all color. His lips trembled as he muttered," Impossible, how can a glass seed appear? Impossible..."
"Good stuff! This is the true Emerald Emperor, tsk tsk..."
All sorts of exclamations and sighs came and went. Everyone was mesmerized by the extraordinary elegance of the Jade Emperor. It was a gratifying thing to see a piece of top-grade jade emerge from the hard stone. Many jewelers had already started to secretly estimate the price and plan to win this piece of top-grade jade in the next auction.
As soon as the emperor green of the glass species appeared, the strong man who was breaking the stone felt that covering the first piece of jade had become redundant, so he simply took advantage of the watering to remove the red velvet. The jade color suddenly appeared, and four pieces of jade of different sizes reflected each other.
The high ice seed, bright sun green, two bright gold seeds, and the embryonic glass seed, emperor green, rose three times in three bets. This was a super luxurious lineup that had never appeared in previous stone gambling competitions. No matter what materials were offered in the remaining fifty stalls, there was no doubt that No. 56 would win.
"Ha ha!" Nice stone I picked out, huh? Much better than those bullsh * t experts!" Tang Guobin laughed and gave Meng Shicheng a bear hug.
Meng Shicheng was held out of breath, rolled his eyes and said,"You cow, what experts are not as good as you?" Let go, my old bones are about to be strangled by you..."
Tang Guobin let go of his hand and said," Your words are too forced. It's boring."
Xu Qing smiled faintly and glanced at the two of them. He touched his belly and said," I'm hungry. Which one of you is in charge of food?"
Tang and Meng looked at each other and gave a tacit middle finger to someone. Even Fang Piaopiao couldn't help but laugh. She turned around and covered her mouth with her hands.
" Piao Piao, let's go..." Bai Shengjun shouted with a dark face and turned around to leave. He knew that it would be embarrassing to stay here since he had already lost. Moreover, he had to pay the money he lost to the owner of the lottery as soon as possible, otherwise there would be endless trouble.
Bai Shengjun left with his men dejectedly. Meng Shicheng stared blankly at his ex-wife's departing figure. He did not know why he did not feel the slightest joy of victory at this moment. There was only endless sadness.
The quality of the jade that came out of the last fifty stalls was very good. No. 109 also came out with two pieces of high-grade ice full green jade, but it could not surpass No. 56. After a brief discussion among the judges, the winner of the stone gambling competition was decided.
Stall No. 56 won first place, and stall No. 109 was second. He watched helplessly as two pieces of high-grade ice jade fell into the hands of others. All the jadeites from this competition were auctioned by the organizer on the spot, and the proceeds, excluding the 10% handling fee, belonged to the champion.
The live auction was far more popular than ever before, but surprisingly, the biggest winner of the stone gambling contest left early and is now sitting with two forgotten friends in a small hotel not far from the trading venue.
The restaurant is not big, the taste of the dishes is quite good, authentic Tengchong flavor, big rescue, black three chop, sour bamboo shoots fried beef, spicy ribs, pot, border city grilled fish, plus a few soft glutinous pineapple rice, drink some bamboo rice wine, that is a pleasure.
After a few days in Yunnan, this meal was much more authentic than any five-star hotel, and the price was cheaper. It cost less than 300 yuan for five people to eat and drink. When leaving, the enthusiastic shop owner also brought a can of home-brewed rice wine for each person, saying only to drink on the way.
Everyone rushed back to the trading venue and realized that it was only 5 pm, neither too early nor too late, just in time for the auction to end. After the host announced the successful conclusion of the stone gambling competition, he shouted," Please stand up and accept the award from stall owner No. 56 Meng Shicheng..."
Meng Shicheng smiled calmly and walked up to the stage. The host immediately handed over a microphone and said," As the champion of this stone gambling competition, what do you think, Mr. Meng?"
Meng Shicheng smiled as he brought the microphone to his mouth. Unexpectedly, a gust of alcohol rose to his throat and he belched loudly. His voice echoed through the entire audience under the amplification of the microphone.
The host reacted quickly. He picked up the microphone and frowned." Mr. Meng, we don't understand your dialect. Please speak Mandarin."
Hahaha...
Everyone on stage burst into laughter. Tang Guobin squatted down with his hands on his stomach. Xu Qing spat out the rice wine he had just drunk. Fortunately, there was no one on the other side.
Meng Shicheng smiled disapprovingly and said," Just now, I took advantage of the time when everyone was auctioning jade to go out for a meal. As a friend of mine said, no matter how good jade is, it is still a stone. No matter how beautiful a stone is, it cannot be used as food, right? Stone gambling is exciting, but it's not good to indulge in it. There are 150 stalls to solve the stone problem together, and I'm the only one who makes money. When I have money, I'll naturally solve the problem of water in my stomach first!"
These words cleverly revealed the nature of stone gambling, but also tactfully pointed out the huge risks, 150 stalls, only one to make a lot of money, stone gambling is so cruel.
There was silence for two seconds before intermittent applause began to ring out.
The emcee handed Meng Shicheng an exquisite jade box with a cash check in it. He smiled and said a few words before announcing the successful conclusion of the stone gambling competition.
Meng Shicheng took the box and walked down the platform in high spirits. Huang Bowen, who had a bitter smile on his face, had been waiting for a long time.
"Old Meng, you're not kind!" Huang Bowen took out a cash check from his pocket and stuffed it into Meng Shicheng's pocket. He revealed a meaningful smile and whispered," Fortunately, I bought some of Bai Shengjun's invitations. Otherwise, I would have lost my money this time!"
Meng Shicheng asked curiously,"How many did you buy?"
Huang Bowen smiled and shook his three fingers." A little bit. It's two thousand less than you, old fox. It's just enough to make up for the loss."
Meng Shicheng knew that there was a ten thousand word missing from the number that this guy was talking about. If he bet thirty million, it meant that Bai would have to accompany ninety million. Adding the one and a half hundred million he won, Bai would lose at least two hundred million in this stone gambling competition, not including the jade material he lost.
No matter how rich Bai Shengjun was, losing 200 million yuan in one go was enough for him to suffer for a while. No wonder some people said that there were few people who gave him charcoal in the snow these days, and many who hit him when he was down. Of course, Huang Bowen's vision and courage also convinced Meng Shicheng deeply.
When everyone returned to stall No. 56, the raw materials inside were once again robbed by others. Moreover, the price was more than three times higher than the scheduled price. All of this was due to the outstanding performance of the raw materials in the stone gambling competition.
The prize money alone for this competition was 310 million yuan. In addition to the 250 million yuan won in the private lottery, Meng Shicheng made a net profit of 540 million yuan after deducting the handling fee. Meng Shicheng transferred 180 million yuan to Xu Tang and immediately ordered two Rolls-Royce Phantoms. He also announced that the employees at the stalls would each receive 10,000 yuan bonus. Today, the files were closed early and the boss treated them to dinner.
