Chapter 75: Booth King

Ye Bufan said, "Of course, it all depends on what Guan Ge thinks."

"I don't take payment for doing nothing. Even if I could make it work, I couldn't possibly take your 20% share, after all, the property has already been sold." Guan Dongping said, "So, let's just say that I'm working for you as your elder brother."

If things work out, you give me $1 million a year, if not, consider it helping you.

Ye Bufan still admired Guandongping's character very much, and said: "That's settled. I'll give you a salary of 10 million yuan a year."

Guan Dongping also didn't beat around the bush and said very straightforwardly: "Salary is easy to talk about, I'll go back and assemble workers, just wait for your call."

After he finished speaking, he left the Paradise Club and Ye Bufan walked towards the original stone venue.

The original stone exhibition was held on an open-air square of several thousand square meters at the Paradise Club. At this moment, the exhibition had already begun, and the venue was piled with various kinds of original stones. There was a staff member in front of each pile of original stones.

Legend has it that these rough stones were brought by the Luo family from the old pits of Myanmar, and each one could potentially yield a sky-high price jade.

Before the rough stones, people thronged. Jewel merchants from all corners of China and those interested in gambling on jade gathered around these stones, examining them carefully and discussing their potential value.

Some people can't hold back their excitement and directly buy a stone to open it on the spot.

There's a saying in the jade gambling industry: one cut can lead to poverty, one cut can bring riches, and one cut can leave you with nowhere to go.

As stone by stone was uncovered, some wept with joy, some beat their chests in despair, some laughed out loud, and some sighed deeply.

This is precisely the charm of gambling on jade. To this day, no method can see through the outer layer of a raw stone. No one knows whether it holds dog feces or imperial green inside.

Ye Bufan walked forward with the crowd. He found that these so-called impenetrable stones offered no resistance to his divine sense.

Along the way, which stone contains jade, whether jade is red or green, big or small, everything is clear and transparent.

This thrilled him, and at this moment the stone market was like an ATM to him. There was no difficulty in gambling on stones for him.

If he were willing, he could easily sweep away all the ore here that is worth double its value.

But he also didn't want to make it too obvious. If people knew he could see through stones, things would get complicated later on.

So he decided to find Qin Chuchu first and follow the Qin Group for procurement. He would wait until after they returned before secretly unsealing the stone.

He was walking forward when he came across an area where some stones were encircled by ropes, and beside them stood a sign that read, "Luo's Group Private Stone, Not For Sale."

Although jadeite rough cannot be seen through, experienced jade appraisers can still see some clues from the skin of the stone. Based on the color of the rough stone, whether there are blemishes, cracks, etc., they can estimate the probability of the rough stone producing jadeite.

The Luo family are the organizers of this jade exhibition, so they had stockpiled some high-quality rough stones beforehand for use in their own jade shop or as gifts.

Since the ore here is not for sale, the few staff members guarding it have a relatively easy time and gather together to chat.

Ye Bufan walked past, suddenly he stopped in his tracks, his eyes burning with heat as he looked at the large stone under the seat of a staff member.

This rock is about half a meter tall, black all over, and smooth overall. That's why the worker mistook it for a stool to sit on.

From its outward appearance, this stone was unremarkable. However, in Ye Bufan's eyes, it was undoubtedly a rare treasure.

A flash of excitement crossed his eyes, he suppressed the excitement in his heart, and stepped forward to say to the staff member: "Excuse me, how can I buy the stones here"

The staff member was polite and said, "I'm sorry, but the stones here are reserved for Luo's family and are not for sale to the public."

Since he had his eye on this stone, Ye Bufan naturally wasn't willing to give up. He asked again, "Young man, can you tell me how to choose a good stone from here I think all the stones here look pretty good."

Ye Bufan frowned. He knew very well Luo Wentao's attitude towards him, wishing he were dead, how could he possibly give him raw stones

But this stone was too important to him, he had to get it no matter what.

At that moment, a throng of people flowed towards them, with Luo Wentuo accompanying Qin Chuchu as they approached.

Although the Qin Group sent their own jade expert, Luo Wentao still volunteered and actively applied to help Qin Chuchu choose stones.

Qin Chuchu disliked this person, but she still highly respected his ability to identify jade.

The Luo family has been in the jade business for many years, accumulating rich experience. In addition, Luo Wentou's teacher is Chen Bainian, one of the top ten jade appraisers in Myanmar.

Over the years, I have indeed learned a lot. My ability to identify gemstones far surpasses that of ordinary appraisers.

Just like that, she didn't refuse either. She wrote down all the stone numbers that Luo Wentao recommended and promised to consult with her company's appraisers later for reference.

A group of people stopped a short distance from Ye Bufan. Luo Wentao pointed to a stone that was over two meters high and weighed more than 1,000 jin, and said: "Chu Chu, do you see this stone This is the king of this exhibition."

Although it's listed at 30 million, it would be an absolute steal if you get it. I have high hopes for it, and my teacher raves about it too, which is why it was chosen as the highlight of this exhibition.

Qin ChuChu looked at the stone. Generally speaking, rough stones are divided into two forms: full gamble and half gamble. Full gamble means there are no windows, and it all depends on your luck.

And semi-gambling rough stones are opened on the stone to create windows of varying sizes. The size of these windows is used to estimate the probability of finding jade inside, providing a more accurate gauge.

Here lies a rough jade stone, with a basketball-sized window cut on the left side, revealing a tempting hint of green.

Qin ChuChu also knew a thing or two about gambling on stones, and she was quite moved by this piece.

According to the opening of the window, the jade's texture is at least glass type.

Such a large stone, if even one-tenth of its material was glass jadeite, it would be worth at least over 100 million Chinese yuan. It could immediately alleviate the current shortage of raw materials for Qin's jewelry company.

Lu WenTao saw Qin ChuChu's thoughts, and said again: "ChuChu, just believe me, this stone will definitely be a sure profit if you take it down."

To be honest, I saved this stone for you. Otherwise, I would have taken it back to the Luo family and used it myself.

What he said was the truth, this stone was favored by many people, including his teacher Chen Bainian.

That's precisely why he specifically reserved this one as the king piece, intending to curry favor with Qin Chuchu when the Qin Corporation came to purchase rough stones.

Hearing the host of the exhibition so optimistic about this stone, many people gathered around, admiring this top-grade product.

"Not bad, it's a good stone indeed. A jadeite crystal with this kind of python pattern will definitely yield jade..."

"Isn't that obvious The person has already wiped out the window, so there must be jade inside. The current suspense is how much jade there is and what its quality is..."

I believe in Lord Luo's vision, it's a pity I don't have the money, otherwise buying it would definitely be a sure profit…n the middle of the warehouse.A divine sense swept over the area, revealing a plethora of goods.
