Shen Yuxuan's face darkened and she looked at Liu Xiangnan and his group with an unpleasant expression.
"Is that the person mentioned in Shen Yuxuan's information?" Yang Qi's eyes fell on the young man next to Liu Xiangnan. Shen Yuxuan knew before that there was a stranger following Liu Xiangnan, but she knew nothing about this person's origin.
Now that Yang Qi saw this person, he was certain that the other party was a practitioner of internal martial arts, because he felt the same aura from the other party as that from Luo Bing and others.
"Liu Xiangnan, you didn't go to the Myanmar public auction to pick out the raw materials, but you are here instead. Do you want what happened in eastern Guangdong to happen again?" Shen Yuxuan said coldly.
As soon as these words were spoken, Liu Xiangnan and Wu Shan's faces suddenly darkened. Winning the bid at the Guangdong East Exhibition could be said to be an indelible shame for Liu Jewelry. Now that Shen Yuxuan had brought up the past, it made the two of them feel even more embarrassed.
"You don't have to worry about me, Yuxuan." Liu Xiangnan said calmly, "I came here this time because I heard that there are fake raw materials in the public auction. I want to remind you not to be deceived."
While Liu Xiangnan was speaking, he looked in the direction of Yang Qi, as if to remind Shen Yuxuan that Yang Qi could not be trusted.
Just seeing this scene, Shen Yuxuan and Xie Guangyao laughed in their hearts. Even Xue Qingyan himself might not have thought that the fake wool material he made had already been discovered by Yang Qi.
"Liu Xiangnan, you'd better take care of your own business." Shen Yuxuan smiled coldly.
"This must be the newly-crowned master of gambling on stones, Master Yang Qiyang, right?" At this moment, a deep voice was heard, and then a middle-aged man walked up to Liu Xiangnan.
Originally, this middle-aged man was standing with the bodyguard, and no one paid much attention to him. But when he suddenly stepped forward, everyone immediately realized that this man was not a bodyguard.
"You are..." Yang Qi frowned slightly. He knew a lot about the jade world, but in his impression, there was no middle-aged man in front of him.
"It doesn't matter who I am. It's you who are so young, but you have already reached the master level in gambling on stones. It's really rare." The middle-aged man smiled slightly, but didn't seem to explain at all.
After hearing this, Yang Qi couldn't help but frown. Although he was not an arrogant person, not everyone could lecture him in front of him as a senior.
"Huangshi, I didn't expect that we would meet again." The middle-aged man looked at Huangshi not far away and said slowly, looking as if they were old friends who had not seen each other for many years.
"Who are you?" Huang Shi frowned when he heard this.
The middle-aged man gave him a familiar feeling from the moment he appeared, but he could not remember where he had seen him. Although Huang Shi was not a person with a photographic memory, if he had seen such a strange person, he would definitely remember it.
"You are really old." Hearing this, the middle-aged man shook his head with disappointment, "You will remember it soon."
As soon as he finished speaking, the middle-aged man turned and left, and Liu Xiangnan beside him quickly followed him.
"Why do I feel that this middle-aged man is the center of this group?" Xie Guangyao said softly as he watched this scene.
After this was said, Shen Yuxuan nodded. Although she didn't know the middle-aged man, she could see with her eyesight that the middle-aged man was the center of the group. Even Liu Xiangnan stood carefully behind the middle-aged man when he spoke, which clearly showed that he was the main person.
"This person is not simple." Yang Qi said.
He felt an aura from the middle-aged man that was no less powerful than Luo Yuanshan's. It was obvious that the other party was also a practitioner of internal martial arts, and his strength was probably not inferior to Luo Yuanshan's.
With the strength at the peak of Dark Energy, under the premise that there are no powerful warriors at the level of Transformation Energy nowadays, he is already a figure standing at the top of martial artists. You should know that Luo Yuanshan is one of the official directors of the Chinese Martial Arts Alliance.
"Mr. Huang, do you recognize him?" Shen Yuxuan's face changed when she heard this, and she quickly asked Huang Shi who was standing beside her.
Huang Shi couldn't help but smile bitterly and shook his head when he heard this, saying, "I just feel that he is very familiar, but unfortunately I can't remember where I have seen him. Maybe it is really like what he said, I am really old."
Huang Shi is already quite old and has long stopped working as a gambling stone consultant for major jewelers. In addition to wanting to devote himself to teaching his disciples, his own age and health reasons also account for the majority. In fact, there are almost no gambling stone consultants over 70 years old, and even those over 60 years old are rare. Most gambling stone consultants are between 40 and 50 years old. At this age, their experience and health can be guaranteed, which is the peak period for gambling stone.
Because of the issue of fake raw materials, more people are paying attention to the open and hidden bids. After all, these raw materials are more reliable than those outside.
"Yang Qi, is this how you look at the raw materials? Don't you look at every piece?" Seeing that Yang Qi almost separated several pieces before examining them carefully, Xie Guangyao was a little surprised.
Xie Guangyao himself is a jade lover, although he has no skills, but he has seen pigs run even if he has eaten pork. Following Liu Yang, he has naturally seen how Mr. Wei observes the rough materials. Compared with Mr. Wei's meticulous observation, Yang Qi is just a cursory look, just a casual look, and no longer makes detailed observations.
"The total amount of raw materials, both openly and secretly bid, exceeds several thousand pieces. With so many raw materials and only ten days to collect them all, even if all the domestic gambling stone masters were gathered together to observe them, they might not be able to see them all. So, of course, you have to be selective in choosing the raw materials." Before Yang Qi could speak, Shen Yuxuan beside him explained with a smile.
"So that's how it is. I thought I had to look at every gambling stone." Xie Guangyao shrugged.
Although Xie Guangyao just said it casually, Yang Qi was stunned. It's no wonder that other people didn't observe each gambling stone carefully, but relying on the sensing of the vital energy of heaven and earth, he did not miss any gambling stone.
Although he would recommend these raw materials to Shen Yuxuan, if Shen Yuxuan herself did not intend to bid, he would naturally try to bid, as these were all fake Yuan crystals.
No matter whether it is a fully gambled rough material or a half gambled rough material, Yang Qi will sense it carefully, especially those jadeite containing the essence of heaven and earth.
In a blink of an eye, the morning passed. In the afternoon, Yang Qi and Shen Yuxuan separated. Shen Yuxuan took Huang Shi to observe the rough materials, while Yang Qi and Xie Guangyao went to the rough material shop to select rough materials.
"You're so unlucky that Shen Yuxuan asked you to be a gambling stone consultant. With such a big public auction, you actually have to rest for an entire afternoon." Xie Guangyao chuckled as he looked at Yang Qi beside him.
Zhou Hai, who was standing by, looked away immediately after hearing this. He had heard Shen Yuxuan mention the identity of Xie Guangyao. He could only pretend he didn't hear what Xie Guangyao said. Otherwise, even if he told Shen Yuxuan, she wouldn't care.
"It's a good combination of work and rest. I've been observing the raw materials all morning, which is quite boring." Yang Qi said calmly. In fact, he could sense the raw materials more quickly, but if the speed was too fast, it would definitely arouse other people's suspicion. So when Yang Qi sensed the raw materials, he would also pretend to observe the raw materials carefully. (To be continued)
