The three of them were not familiar with the Gambling Stone Street in Shan City, so Ming Wuxiang looked around at the Gambling Stone shops, picked a few people, and pushed Gu Tang in.
I chose this shop because there were no stairs or threshold at the entrance of the shop, otherwise it would be very inconvenient for Gu Tang, who was in a wheelchair, to get in and out.
When the shop owner saw a customer coming to his door, he didn't approach him enthusiastically like other shop owners and employees, but asked Ming Wuxiang to pick them casually. The shop owner was sitting very leisurely. Drinking Kung Fu tea on the pear blossom chair.
Don't say Wuxiang is such a buddhist shopkeeper, even Gu Tang met him for the first time.
Ming Wuxiang and Gu Tang looked at each other, shrugged, since the owner of the shop seemed to let the customers do whatever they wanted, they had no choice but to see what was going on by themselves first.
Li Jiahua, who was following behind, rolled his eyes, instead of following Ming Wuxiang and the others to look at the stone, he went to the shopkeeper.
How could Li Jiahua not feel the approach of the owner, just raised his eyebrows at him, but when he was about to speak, Li Jiahua interrupted first, "Suck, boss, your tea fragrance is Phoenix, right?"
Don't look at Li Jiahua's questioning tone, but judging by his demeanor, he is absolutely sure that he has guessed correctly.
Li Jiahua did not guess wrong. The shop owner, who was enjoying Kung Fu tea leisurely, gave Li Jiahua a thumbs up after hearing this, "Boy, you are a dog's nose. Yes, what I drink is Phoenix."
"Congratulations." Li Jiahua chuckled, and the owner picked out a new teacup with tweezers, poured a cup of light brown tea, and pushed it in front of Li Jiahua, the meaning was self-evident.
Li Jiahua was not polite to the shopkeeper, and he didn't hesitate at all. He sat directly on a chair made of pear blossom wood, picked up the teacup on the coffee table, looked at the color of the tea, put it under the tip of his nose to smell the tea, and finally Take a sip of tea.
On the other side, he was looking at Shi Mingwuxiang, turned his head and looked in Li Jiahua's direction, and saw that this kid was chatting with the store owner, he didn't know what to say for a while.
Gu Tang looked over with Ming Wuxiang's eyes, and also noticed Li Jiahua's condition, he couldn't help but chuckled, "Xiao Li's ability is quite good." As for what ability, judging by his current appearance, do you still need to ask
"Of course it's good, especially some pretentious skills are even more powerful." In front of Gu Tang, it was rare for Ming Wuxiang to complain about Li Jiahua like this.
Hearing that Ming Wuxiang commented that it was a pretentious skill, Gu Tang smiled. But Ming Wuxiang is not wrong, when the identity reaches a certain level, it will definitely be arty, isn't it pretending to be down-to-earth
As for the so-called pretentiousness, if you succeed, you are awesome, and if you fail, of course, you are stupid.
Judging by Li Jiahua's appearance at this time, he should have succeeded, otherwise the shopkeeper's attitude towards him would not have changed so quickly. Within a few minutes, the smile on the shopkeeper's face became even brighter.
Ming Wuxiang just glanced at Li Jiahua who was chatting with the store owner, and turned his attention back to the stone in front of him. The stones placed in this shop are really not too many, and the storefront is quite big, so it is not inconvenient for Ming Wuxiang to push Gu Tang to walk among the stones.
When he walked into the store, Ming Wuxiang had already secretly scanned it with his spiritual sense, and found that he didn't feel anything, but he was not discouraged, and was going to touch the stones with his hands later to see if his spiritual sense could react.
Gu Tang, who was sitting in a wheelchair, didn't know that Ming Wuxiang was planning to use his spiritual sense to cheat. When he entered the store, he was actually a little surprised. Seeing so few customers in the store outside, he thought it was because the stones in the store were not in good condition, but when he entered the store, he found that it was not what he thought at all.
The stones randomly placed on the ground in the store are all in good condition, and those who know the goods will definitely not miss it. Gu Tang glanced at the situation in the store again, and there were only a few customers alone, compared to the store next door, it was not a little bit worse.
"What's wrong?"
Looking at the stones in front of me, I don't understand the obviousness of gambling stones, and I feel that they are no different from the stones on the side of the road. He couldn't understand Shitou, and when he was about to ask Gu Tang's opinion, he saw Gu Tang's expression was a bit strange.
Seeing that no one was paying attention to them, Ming Wuxiang lowered his head to Gu Tang's ear and asked in a low voice, "Is there something wrong with the stones here?" There were so few customers in the store, and he thought of all kinds of frauds that have been exposed in the past few years. Incident, Ming Wuxiang suddenly a handful of conspiracy theories.
Gu Tang turned his head and saw Ming Wuxiang's cautious look as if he had discovered some secret, he couldn't help chuckling. I sigh in my heart, if I don't know that Ming Wuxiang is not an ordinary person, but a monk, just by looking at his usual appearance, he is actually just a child.
Suppressing the smile on the corner of his mouth, Gu Tang shook his head, "No, the stone here is doing very well."
"Oh?" It's really rare to get Gu Tang, Mr. Gu, to say that it's very good, but if the stones here are not bad, why are there so few people in the store? Could it be that the price is too expensive
It has to be said that Ming Wuxiang's nonsensical guess really turned out to be the truth.
At this moment, Li Jiahua, who had been chatting with the owner of the shop, finally came back. Seeing this guy's unfinished face, he thought he was doing something just now.
Li Jiahua, who came back, didn't wait for Ming Wuxiang to open his mouth, like pouring beans, he clattered out the news he had inquired from the shopkeeper.
"There are so many people on Stone Gambling Street today because there is a stone gambling competition here. On Stone Gambling Street, as long as there is a store with a red strap hanging in front of the store, customers can buy stones at the lowest purchase price, and then participate in the stone gambling competition to win the prize." The winner seems to have a bonus of 500,000 yuan."
Five hundred thousand is considered a lot of money for ordinary families at this time, and the lowest purchase price is still used to buy stones. If there are jadeite in the stones, they can make another fortune.
No wonder there are so many people betting on Stone Street today, and most of them are people who don't play stone at all. No need to ask, these people are here to join in the fun and see their luck.
"I remember that there is no red tie at the door of this store."
"right."
After Gu Tang and Ming Wuxiang finished talking, Li Jiahua shrugged and said, "Representatives of shops without red straps will not participate in this stone betting competition, so it's not surprising that there are so few customers here."
For those customers who come here purely to try their luck, the normal price of stones is too expensive to afford, and the stones in this store perform so well, so the price is definitely not low.
He nodded clearly, no wonder, the shop next to him was full of shopping scenes like supermarket specials, and the customers in this shop were all holding flashlights, magnifying glasses and other special tools, very Guests who carefully observe the surface condition of the stone.
Comparing the hatchback, it is easy to see which side is professional and which side is soy sauce.
Li Jiahua couldn't understand the stone gambling competition held on Stone Street, "Does stone gambling still need to use this method to stimulate consumption?" In his mind, stone gambling should be tall and mysterious at the same time, what he saw today is very shocking People's illusions are destroyed.
"Who knows what the people who hold the stone betting competition think, but such a competition seems to have a lot of tricks in the operability."
For example, take out some stones that are not in good condition or are simply waste stones, and then mark a super low price to coax those who don't know how to buy them. Anyway, it is all waste utilization, and if it can be sold, it is considered a profit.
Of course, if someone is lucky enough to cut out emeralds from those stones, the store will not be jealous, but will only be excited, so there is no need to worry about the sales of those rubbish stones.
Well, Li Jiahua also understood Ming Wuxiang's explanation.
"We didn't come here today for the stone betting competition. Don't you want to buy one to try your luck? Brother Gu said that the stones here are very good. If you like it, you can buy it." After Brother Gu, Ming Wuxiang thought about it, and outside, he also called Gu Tang as Brother Gu just like Li Jiahua.
This is to prevent some uncontrollable accidents.
"Okay." With Ming Wuxiang's words, Li Jiahua didn't have the time to think about other gossip, and quickly took out the magnifying glass and the flashlight from the satchel, with a look of great interest.
"You actually prepared these?" Ming Wuxiang couldn't help being stunned when he saw the equipment Li Jiahua took out.
Li Jiahua raised his chin proudly, "Of course, I went online last night to check what I need to prepare. Fortunately, I have a flashlight and a magnifying glass at home. If it's not too late at night, I don't know where to buy it."
"Pfft, you young man is really interesting." Before Ming Wuxiang complained, a strange voice suddenly broke in, and the one who spoke was the shopkeeper who came over at some time.
"Don't worry if you don't have the tools. If the customer doesn't prepare them, I will provide them in my store." The owner couldn't help but smile. Generally, stone gambling shops will have these tools in case some customers forget to bring them, and they can provide them on the spot.
Li Jiahua smiled at the owner, said hello, and went to see the stone, although in Ming Wuxiang's eyes, this guy didn't seem to be looking at the stone at all, but was playing with the stone.
Fortunately, even though Li Jiahua didn't know how to bet on stones, he did some temporary hugging. At least he knew that there were people looking at the stones, so he didn't go to join in the fun.
The shop owner glanced at Li Jiahua who was playing with the rocks and stopped paying attention to him, but turned his attention to Ming Wuxiang and Gu Tang, especially Gu Tang.
It has to be said that even though Mr. Gu is sitting in a wheelchair, the aura he exudes is still like that big light bulb that blinds people in the dark. Anyone with insight will definitely not ignore him.
"Hehe, do you two need any help?" Could it be that a Buddhist shopkeeper took the initiative to ask for help, Ming Wuxiang raised his eyebrows, well, another person who was suppressed by Mr. Gu.
"The boss is polite."
Ming Wuxiang took the initiative to take up the topic. He had some questions to ask the shopkeeper, such as the price of the stones. He did not forget that today he only has 1.5 million capital. I can't even afford it.
But before Ming Wuxiang asked, a greasy, impetuous voice came from the door of the shop.
"Boss Chen, how do you think about the opinions put forward by this young master?"
