Chapter 73: Big Boss in the Stone Gambling World

"Uh, then I'll be disrespectful. Then, I can pay the gambling capital of Brother Mo Yang and others,"

After Liu Qing finished speaking, the big black face was full of smiles, like a black peony, and that smile was invincible.

Li Moyang rubbed his nose. This guy was also a top figure. He was smart, at least he was unmatched in flattery. So Li Moyang smiled and said, "Thank you Mr. Liu. I don't know anything. I just want to find a stone to play with it."

"Mu problem, you can choose whatever you want," Liu Qing smiled even stronger. Li Moyang is a good guy and is very good at speaking according to his meaning.

Du Baogang continued: "Mr. Liu, what else do you need us to do? Even though it is said that there will be no strong enemy to obstruct us,"

Liu Qing was stunned for a moment, and then praised: "There is indeed a strong enemy. My Yanghua Stone Gambling Auction House was a newcomer and offended the largest stone gambling store in Tengchong, called Jinshan Stone Gambling. Before I came, Jinshan Stone Gambling was the boss of Tengchong. His boss Wu Guo was also the president of Tengchong Stone Gambling Guild. One mountain cannot accommodate two tigers. The newcomer must be bullied and must survive this level. This is why I invited you to the market."

"Haha, okay, I'll help you decide this time. Spending money is not a problem, but you must also prepare your ore source. Don't just fill in the numbers, otherwise, it would be a joke," Du Baogang reminded.

"Please rest assured about this. I never fight unprepared battles. This time I brought Laokeng ore from Myanmar and invited experienced masters to test them in advance. The probability of jadeite is absolutely high," Liu Qing swore.

"That's good,"

Land Rover and his team rushed to Tengchong at lightning speed after two hours. There were gambling stones everywhere on the streets, and there were crowds of people everywhere. The stones were placed everywhere. The streets were bustling. This was the gambling stones area in Tengchong.

The Land Rover, who was leading the way, turned into a cold gambling stone stadium. There were several big words hanging on the door: Yanghua Gambling Stones, Li Moyang and others got off the car. Looking at it, there was a very grand gambling stone stadium, with various antique buildings and carved dragon styles, which had a very ancient charm. An octagonal pavilion stood in the center of the gambling stone stadium, and a screen wall was in the middle of the octagonal pavilion. On the screen wall was hung with a sign "One knife is rich, one knife is poor" and a copper gong was hung on the rattan rack. Liu Qing introduced: This means the final result.

There are large and small raw stones on the four rows of long tables, with yellow and black leather colors. Liu Qing led the way to the living room and said, "This is the raw stone. These stones may be jadeite. Whether you can gamble jadeite depends on your luck."

There were also some huge rough stones piled up in the corners next to it. I saw that one piece looked like a few tons. Li Moyang asked: "Are these rough stones too?"

Liu Qing smiled proudly: "Yes, these are all, calculated based on one hundred yuan per kilogram. Guess how much it will cost to buy this stone alone," he said.

"Uh, it's over a million. If you can't gamble on jade, wouldn't it be a compensation?" Hu Shengsong took a deep breath, and Liu Jin'er was also shocked with her mouth covering her little mouth.

"Yes, if you have to be rich with one knife, you will be the fun of gambling," Liu Qing spoke and welcomed everyone into the living room. An old man with a long hair and a young face sat on the chair of the Grand Master. Seeing everyone entering the room, he didn't stand up. His expression was very arrogant, but Liu Qing didn't care.

"Haha, Mr. Ma, my guest is here, I'll introduce you to you," Liu Qing greeted her with a smile. This surprised everyone, including Du Baogang. The so-called Mr. Ma, is quite old.

Mr. Ma still sat upright on the chair of the Grand Master, bowing slightly to say hello. Liu Qing arranged for Du Baogang to sit on the chair of the Grand Master next to Mr. Ma, and he sat on the chair beside him, and Li Moyang and others also sat down.

Du Baogang was calm and uneasy, and he didn't care. Li Moyang had a very good mentality and didn't take it seriously. Hu Shengsong was a little unwilling, and Song Yiming was also very dissatisfied. The so-called Ma Lao was so awesome, and international wealthy people didn't take it seriously.

Liu Qing owed his body and introduced the guests. After a change of topic, he focused on recommending Mr. Ma: "Haha, all the guests from afar, I will grandly introduce the consultant of Yanghua Gambling Stone Stadium, the gambling expert Ma Zhongren, Ma Lao," Mr. Ma was very fed by this, smiling but not speaking, and was so awesome. Hu Shengsong and Song Yiming were very dissatisfied.

Liu Qing continued to introduce: "Before introducing Mr. Ma, I will give you some popular science on gambling stones, or jadeite. It can be said that the prosperity of gambling stones in Yunnan since the reform and opening up has a lot to do with Mr. Ma. Mr. Ma played an important role and made an indelible contribution," he said.

Mr. Ma was very satisfied. He stroked his white beard, picked up a teacup and drank a sip of mellow Pu'er. Liu Qing waited for Mr. Ma to finish his tea before continuing: "Gambling stones is a unique high-end jadeite raw stone trading method that is popular in the Yunnan-Burma border area. It attracts jade merchants from all directions to participate in the chopsticks with its rich gambling color and strong stimulation, which is very risky. It can be said that it will last for a long time. If the seller understands the guild, he will be good at gambling eyes and good luck. If he buys the best, he will become a nouveau riche in an instant, and he will lose all his money. On the contrary, if he misses the goods, he will lose all his money and lose everything. In the early 20th century, a group of stone gambling experts appeared in Tengchong to become famous. Mao Yingde became rich because he bet on the "Mao Family Jade". In order to show off his wealth, he tied thousands of pairs of high-end jade bracelets into coffin covers as burial objects after his death."

When everyone heard this, they took a breath and it was really awesome.

Liu Qing continued: "Gambling on stones, everyone must be curious about this thing. As the name suggests, gambling on stones, usually the jade we see is wrapped in stone before processing. Therefore, from the appearance, if the surface of the stone is not damaged and exposed, it is no different from ordinary broken stones, but the density of jade is much greater than that of stones. If the stone wrapped with jade inside will be significantly heavier than ordinary stones.

The jade wool materials I saw in Yunnan are basically from Myanmar. The gambling stones are big and small. Generally, sellers of these stones will weigh them in advance and mark the weight on the stone. People with poor feel can directly judge the weight by the numbers above. Some gambling stones have been cut, and even the jade inside is exposed. In order to judge the quality of the jade inside, a small flashlight is usually used to stick to the surface of the stone to see how the color is.

The gambling stones are as small as hundreds or tens of thousands, and they all depend on personal abilities. It is not necessarily that there is jade or jade in the stone that is expensive. It is not necessarily that there is no good jade in the small stone. A stone, no one knows whether there is jade or waste stone in the stomach. After buying the stone, you can take it home in the whole piece, or you can cut it at that time. After cutting it, you can directly make handicrafts, jewelry, etc. according to the size and shape of the jade. Generally speaking, the processing fee for making a bracelet is 30 to 40 yuan."

At this point, everyone finally had some idea about gambling stones. Liu Qing coughed and glanced at Ma Lao and said, "Again, I want to mention someone who came from a jade family and was conquered in the jade gambling stone market for more than 20 years. He has made many jade families, and the pattern of China's jade market has changed because of him. He advocates jade virtue and is an active advocate of Chinese jade culture. After years of research and research, he proposed that China's Heshi Bi is jade. In this way, jade as a cultural commodity should have flowed into China 2,600 years ago. His statement was relatively unanimously recognized by industry experts. His life in jade is full of mystery. This is Ma Lao Ma Zhongren and Ma Lao Ma,"

Du Baogang raised his glass to pay tribute, Li Moyang and Hu Shengsong, and Song Yiming looked at the awesome old man with some admiration. Mr. Ma spoke for the first time: "A mere trivial matter is not worth mentioning, it is all the past, haha," said a sentence, it was so awesome, and the good impression of Li Moyang and others disappeared again.

Liu Qing continued: "Recently, Mr. Ma, who is 65 years old, has another amazing move: he took a huge "gambling stone" for 10 million yuan at the Yangon public fair in Myanmar (trade fair). After cutting, a buyer immediately offered 50 million yuan, becoming the biggest winner in the gambling stone market of the season. This spring, a special car moved part of this jade into the Xidan Minrenfu Jade Store in Beijing, which really made people's eyes open.

Throughout history, jadeite wool materials trading has always been the gambling battlefield for adventurers. Jadeite wool materials are calculated in grams, and the largest is magnitude of weight. Most of the people who are picked into the "gambling stone" are called "montou stone" by the industry, referring to stones wrapped in a shell of varying thickness or small skylights opened. Many jade buyers engage in gambling games under this shell, including many people who bet all their assets on a stone. People with no experience and courage have to be discouraged. Even for jade that is "half-clear, half-gamble", traders are very cautious. Everyone in the industry knows that if a stone is cut open, it is possible to get a crystal clear and green top-quality product, and the buyer is immediately worth a hundred times the value; some stones may be ground dry and waterless, and the buyer will lose everything.

Ma Zhongren, who was originally a geologist, was born in Tengchong, an ancient city in western Yunnan in 1940. It is not far from the origin of Myanmar jade. About thousands of years ago, the people of Tengchong discovered a wonderful stone in the north of Myanmar. They took it back to their hometown to cut and grind it, and obtained a beautiful stone. This is jade. Since then, jade craftsmen and jewelers have begun to gather in Tengchong. Ma Zhongren's father was also an expert in jade. After liberation, Ma Zhongren studied geology in college and then conducted geological research for more than 20 years. After the reform and opening up, he became one of the earliest scholars of his generation to go to sea.
