Chapter 87
The owner of the stone gambling shop was too eager, and the more he behaved like this, the more suspicious Li Xiao became.
Although he hasn't read many books, he still has the ability to read people. He has studied physiognomy with his grandfather for many years, and his time is not wasted.
Now he is convinced that the owner of this stone gambling shop is definitely not a good person, and the 150,000 he offered must have lowered the price, and it was very low.
It was precisely because of this that Li Xiao picked up the emerald, ignored the boss, pushed away the crowd, and left directly.
Seeing Li Xiao's gradually disappearing figure, the owner of the stone gambling shop kept changing his expression, and finally heaved a helpless sigh.
After leaving the stone gambling shop, Li Xiao saw that the bald middle-aged man followed him.
Li Xiao quickly went up to meet him and said, "Brother, thank you so much just now, otherwise, I would have been deceived by that bastard."
The middle-aged man quickly shook his head and said with a smile: "It's because of your vigilance, otherwise, this time you will be out of luck."
From the narration of the middle-aged man just now, Li Xiao guessed that this person might not be a simple person. In a place like Baoshan Town, how could there be a person who knows so much about gambling stones? This made Li Xiao a little curious about this middle-aged man.
He looked up at the hot sun staring at the sky, and said to the middle-aged man: "Brother, let's find a restaurant, I treat you to dinner, how about you tell me about the stone gambling?"
Seeing that Li Xiao is so interested, the middle-aged man is not easy to refuse, not to mention, he is also quite interested in Li Xiao.
In the previous observation, the middle-aged man thought that it was impossible for jadeite to appear in the stone gambling stall, but in the end, Li Xiao was stunned to find a piece of jadeite that was not bad in quality, which was a bit unexpected. Young people's expectations.
The two found a restaurant at random, and Li Xiao casually ordered a few cold dish platters and some cooked food, and finally asked the waiter to bring over a few bottles of cold beer. After these things were served, the two began to chat.
Li Xiao looked at the middle-aged man and said, "Brother, aren't you from Baoshan Town?"
The middle-aged man looked at him and said with a smile, "Why do you say that?"
"It doesn't feel like it. Most of the people here don't even know what stone gambling is, and you, who know so much about stone gambling, are too incompatible with these people."
Hearing Li Xiao's words, the middle-aged man showed a faint smile.
He said: "My father is from Baoshan Town, and I grew up here as a child. After I went to university, I went to Kyoto and spent seven or eight years there. Finally, I opened an antique shop and did some gambling. Shi's business, that's why I know about it. I went back to my hometown this time to see my parents. Originally, I wanted to pick up the old man to live in Kyoto, but unfortunately they are too stubborn to leave here, alas!" said Here, the middle-aged man sighed helplessly, picked up the beer in his hand, and took a sip.
Although the middle-aged man is very light, it is not an easy thing to open an antique shop in the capital. Li Xiao probably never dreamed that the middle-aged man in front of him was already worth tens of millions.
"Brother, although our life here is a bit difficult, the environment is good! Look at the capital city, where smog is reported all day long. I think it is better for the elderly to live here. You didn't realize that we have a long life here. Are there many people?"
Hearing what Li Xiao said, the middle-aged man froze for a moment, and then showed a smile of relief.
"I didn't expect that the little brother would point out the key point. I always thought that life in Kyoto was convenient, but I ignored the environmental factors. If the old man went to Kyoto with me, I'm afraid I would suffer. Thank you, little brother A reminder. By the way, my name is Jia Jun, you can call me Big Brother Jia, or Brother Jun.”
The two chatted quite speculatively, and soon became good friends.
"By the way, Brother Jia, can you tell me how much this emerald is worth?"
Jia Jun looked at the jadeite in Li Xiao's hand, and said with a smile: "Your jade is not bad, and its texture can be considered mid-range, but the color is a bit wrong. But it can't stand this piece of jade. It's not small. If you directly If you sell it to a jewelry store, it is estimated to sell for more than 600,000 yuan. The owner of the antique store just now wanted to buy your jade with 150,000 yuan, which is obviously cheating you."
Hearing what Jia Jun said, Li Xiao couldn't help feeling a little scared.
If he really sold this jadeite for 150,000 yuan, then he might regret it too late.
This also made Li Xiao discover one of his weaknesses. Although he has top-level abilities such as clairvoyance, he is definitely unique in betting on stones, but he knows too little about jade, even if he solves it. , it is also easy to be deceived, just like today.
If it wasn't for Jia Jun's stop, even if he was tricked, he might still be complacent!
At this time, Li Xiao was eager to learn some knowledge related to jade, only in this way, he would not be deceived by others when gambling on stones.
Unfortunately, the time he had been in contact with Jia Jun was too short, and it was impossible for Jia Jun to tell him all the knowledge.
But just the content of these few hours of chatting has also benefited him a lot.
In the end, Jia Jun told Li Xiao that if he wants to systematically learn some common sense related to jadeite, it is best to find a teacher to learn from. If not, he can also find some professional books to read, although the effect may not be very good Well, one more thing is to browse some special websites frequently to check the latest price of jade and so on.
Jia Jun had something to leave. Before leaving, he gave Li Xiao his phone number and told him to contact him if he got to the capital.
Jia Jun's words reminded Li Xiao that besides money, what he needs most now is some information, and the Internet is the best way to obtain this information.
It's a pity that the road conditions in Ningxiang Village are too complicated, and it is almost impossible to pull a network cable across.
The only thing he can do now is use the wireless Internet.
After Li Xiao found a Unicom store in the town, he bought a wireless network card directly, and then endured the heartache, bought a laptop, and at the same time replaced the mobile phone, and activated the Internet function. This set actually cost Li Xiao 10,000 yuan. Five, this made him feel a little heartbroken.
When Li Xiao saw his savings, he was also taken aback.
He never dreamed that in a short period of time, his assets had reached millions.
After doing this, the sky has gradually darkened, and the temperature has also become cooler.
Li Xiao took the things he bought and set foot on the way home.
