The strongest door-to-door son-in-law

Chapter 35 Bad luck comes home
"Look, the area just wiped out is also made of glutinous rice. I feel like this stone will swell a lot."

"I don't think so. If the jade meat only has this part on the surface, it wouldn't be a huge loss."

At this time, someone from the crowd came up and asked politely: "Boss, you don't have to cut it down. I saw you bought this material for 180 million yuan. Let me pay you 200 million yuan." Give it to me and I will bear the next risk."

"I offer 210 million!" Someone in the crowd raised their hands and shouted.

Lao Zhao smiled: "Sorry, I don't sell this material."

In Lao Zhao's view, he had just cut off a full-bet rough stone, and his bad luck had been used by him. As of now, there is a high possibility that the half-bet rough stone will rise. If it really rises sharply, his store will lose money this year. Even if the supply of goods is available.

Lao Zhao wiped the sweat from his forehead, turned on the stone cleaning machine, and continued wiping.

With the movement of Lao Zhao's hand, more and more jade flesh was revealed on the surface of the half-sized original stone.

The woman surnamed Xue poured a ladle of water on it at the right time, and the luster of the jadeite flesh became even brighter and more attractive.

"You see, the traces of the jade flesh are not broken. In my opinion, it must have risen sharply."

"No need to wipe it down. I'll pay you 250 million. Brother, sell it to me." Someone asked for the price again.

"I'll pay 260 million!"

"..."

As people started bidding, Lao Zhao's face became a little excited, and his depressed mood just now disappeared.

Generally speaking, the longer you play stone gambling, the better your feeling will be. Lao Zhao has been immersed in stone gambling for so many years, and his experience is naturally rich. His feeling is getting stronger and stronger now. The stone in his hand must be big. rise.

The woman surnamed Xue who was standing aside to help also had her eyes shining. If after wiping, it was all blue and green material made from glutinous rice, then the value of this gambling stone would be at least ten times higher, which is about 800 million to 2000 million. .

She felt a little envious, but also a little regretful. If she had known, she would have grabbed the half-bet rough stone before Lao Zhao at the stall.

Polishing stones is much more tiring than cutting stones, and it takes more time, but Lao Zhao is so motivated now that he doesn't even bother to take a sip of water.

Soon, two-fifths of the surface of the half-bet rough stone was rubbed out by Lao Zhao.

As everyone guessed, two-fifths of the surface is covered with attractive jade flesh of the same kind.

Lao Zhao suppressed his excitement, turned off the stone cleaning machine, wiped the sweat from his forehead, took off his protective gloves, and took a sip of water.

"Brother, I'll raise the price. I'll give you 600 million. Sell it to me."

"I'll pay 650 million!"

"Brother, if the jade flesh on the surface breaks next, you will suffer a huge loss. Let me bear this risk for you, 660 million!"

Lao Zhao smiled and was too lazy to respond to them. He put on protective gloves and continued to rub stones.

A few minutes later, the woman named Xue on the side poured a ladle of water on him.

"Hey, look, it seems like the jade flesh is broken, and there are also small cracks." The same sharp-eyed man said loudly.

"No, let me take a look..."

The crowd gathered even more, and they all looked at the half-cut rough stone on the stone cutting machine.

Lao Zhao's originally excited expression immediately changed, and he said in a low voice: "Bring water."

The woman surnamed Xue handed over a ladle of water.

Lao Zhao slowly poured water on the area he had just wiped. As the water flowed down, the wiped surface gradually became clearer.

The person at the front finally saw it clearly.

"There are actually small cracks. This is an ominous sign."

"Fortunately, this old man didn't agree just now, otherwise..." The person who had just bid the highest was still frightened.Although the cracks are very small, once they appear, it will undoubtedly be a heavy blow to the stone gambler.

In addition, there is no jade flesh exposed in the small cracks, which is an even worse sign.

"Old Zhao, don't be discouraged, maybe it's just such a small place." The woman surnamed Xue comforted her.

Old Zhao calmed down, held the stone cleaning machine, and continued to wipe.

This time, Lao Zhao wiped the stone very quickly. After 3 minutes, the entire side of the gambling stone was wiped out.

The woman named Xue poured a ladle of water on it.

After the water took away the stone fragments, the internal situation was revealed again.

"Ah, look, there are more and more cracks."

"Yes, and there was no jade flesh in the place where I just wiped it. Could it be that the entire gambling stone has that small part of jade flesh just now?"

"What a fine stone. Could it just collapse like this?"

The people's comments stung Lao Zhao's nerves.

"It shouldn't be like this!" Old Zhao cried out in pain, his face a little dull.

The woman surnamed Xue, who had been a little envious before, now felt sorry for Lao Zhao. She sighed and said, "Old Zhao, let's cut it open and take a look."

Old Zhao took two deep breaths, suppressed the storm in his heart, and moved the half-bet rough stone on the table under the blade of the stone cutter.

When the power is pressed, the cutting blade rotates at high speed.

Lao Zhao held the handle and pressed down, and the cutting blade cut into the gambling stone, making a harsh and unpleasant sound.

Soon, the half-bet rough stone was divided into two parts under the stone cutter.

The woman surnamed Xue quickly took a ladle of water and poured it on it.

After the water rinsed the cut surface, there was no trace of jade inside.

"Oh, it's really broken."

"Only the window opening and part of the outer surface have jade. This stone is really deceiving."

"A stone of this quality can be ruined by gambling. This old man is very unlucky."

The crowd's discussion turned into a "buzzing" sound after entering Lao Zhao's ears. He could no longer hear other sounds. Only his own voice echoed in his mind: This is impossible, this is impossible...

The full bet on the rough stone just now was 40, and the current half bet on the rough stone was 180 million. The two together added up to 220 million. It was all in vain.

This feeling is really like riding a roller coaster.

"Old Zhao..." The woman named Xue on the side reached out and patted his shoulder, wanting to comfort him, but she couldn't find the right words for a while.

She now sympathizes more with Lao Zhao. After all, the great sadness after great joy is not easy for anyone.

"It's okay, I just cut off two stones." Old Zhao breathed a long sigh of relief and calmed down.

Although he lost more than 200 million yuan in vain, for Lao Zhao, this small amount of money could not break his muscles and bones, it was just psychologically uncomfortable.

Most people who play stone betting believe in luck.

Lao Zhao's luck was really ugly, so everyone onlookers subconsciously stepped back and stayed as far away from him as possible to avoid being contaminated by bad luck.
