Chapter 121 I think a hundred is too much
"Liu Yuan, don't get angry. You don't know what my brother is capable of. If he said no, then he must be gone!"

Zhou Tao smiled so much that his face was full of meat, and there was only a slit in his eyes. He patted the thin shopkeeper Liu Yuan with his big palm-leaf fan, making him stagger, and then said: "Xiao Yuan, if you don't agree, you can Find other people to come over for appraisal, anyway, betting on stones is based on luck, brother is fine today, so I will gamble with you, brother!"

Liu Yuan sneered in his heart. He knew Zhou Tao well. Seeing that Zhou Tao wanted to bet with himself after hearing what Han Zheng said, he instantly understood that Zhou Tao and the two had come prepared. flooded my mind.

"Since Brother Zhou is interested, I'd rather be respectful than obedient, but this little brother just said that I'm a piece of broken rock. Brother, I'm really tired of listening to you. Why don't you play with us, little brother?" Bundle?"

Liu Yuan squinted his eyes, and the corners of his mouth curled up in an arc, pretending to be friendly to Han Zheng who was watching around Maoshi.

Han Zheng looked up at Liu Yuan, and said with a half-smile: "Then I don't know what kind of bet my brother wants to bet? You just draw the road and come to accompany me, brother!"

Watching Han Zheng's plain expression, Liu Yuan's heart suddenly jumped for no reason. He found that the attitudes of Han Zheng and Zhou Tao seemed casual, but they were faintly full of confidence, which made him cautious.

"Take a break, both of you, I'll ask my teacher to come over and give me long eyes!" Liu Yuan called the clerk to set a table for Han Zheng and make tea, while he went out to invite his master in this line.

"This old boy has many eyes, but the tea is really good, good tea!" Zhou Tao sat on a bamboo chair, crunched the chair, and sipped a sip of strong tea in admiration.

Han Zheng didn't drink tea like Zhou Tao did. He just took a sip and said to Zhou Tao with a smile: "My brother seems to have great knowledge in tea ceremony! Can you help me get some good tea trees, I think Plant some tea in my newly built mansion, keep it for yourself to drink, and also learn the artistic conception life of a literati!"

"It's a small matter. My brother has a friend who grows tea. When I go back, my brother will do it for you!"

Zhou Tao drank the tea, turned his eyes to the piece of wool, grinned at Han Zheng and said with a big smile: "Brother, give brother a solid bottom, there is really no material in this thing?"

Han Zheng glanced in the direction of the store door, turned his face to Zhou Tao and said with a faint smile: "Brother, brother said that there is absolutely no material in it, so there is absolutely no material in it, but well, although there is no material in it, there is something that I am eager to see. What is needed, but this thing is too shabby!"

"It must be a great thing that can make brothers urgently need it, so why do you still say that there is no material in it? Could it be that there is something else in the masonry stone?" Speaking of this, Zhou Tao couldn't help but stare at Han Zheng. , Said: "Brother, you are so capable that my brother knelt down. You can even know what's inside. If you step into the stone gambling business, there will be no way for others to survive. It's terrible!"

Han Zheng pointed at the wool and said, "Brother, you are thinking too much. I judged it based on the surface traces and layered texture of the wool. As for what I want, it is just a seed in this wool!"

Next, Han Zheng murmured a few words in Zhou Tao's ear, and Zhou Tao laughed out loud, and gave Han Zheng a thumbs up, "Brother, this trick is bad enough, but I like it, brother, okay, brother in a while." Help you play your tricks well."

While the two were sipping tea and chatting, Liu Yuan accompanied an old man who was over fifty years old but had a rosy face into the warehouse. When he saw Han Zheng and the two of them, the old man put his eyes on Han Zheng.

"Son, you said, this piece of wool is a broken stone? Old man, I have been in this industry for decades. Although I am not a famous person, I have not made a mistake in my vision. I dare not say that there is something good in this piece of wool. , but there is no doubt about it, Xiao Yuan, you can rest assured to bet with them!"

The old man's words reassured Liu Yuan, who was by his side, and he was about to discuss how to gamble, but Zhou Tao waved his hand to stop him. Fatty Zhou stood up, pointed at the wool and smiled: "Liu Yuan, look at this It’s okay, no matter what is cut out of this piece of wool, I will buy it at four times the price, if there is nothing, then brother, how about willing to gamble and lose?”

Neither Liu Yuan nor the old man expected that Zhou Tao would propose such a proposal to dig a hole for himself, but they glanced at Han Zheng, and they both looked at each other and smiled, "Since Brother Zhou is straightforward, that brother is not hypocritical, let's do it now." Cut stone!"

The old man used a magnifying glass to study and observe the woolen material for a while, then outlined a few positions with a colored pen, and ordered Liu Yuan to cut it!
Liu Yuan was very confident in the strength of the old man, so he carried the stone cutter and put on a dust mask to cut the wool!

Twenty minutes later, the first piece of wool was cut off, but no green was seen. The old man did not show any surprise, and let Liu Yuan continue cutting with confidence, but after an hour, only one piece of wool was cut. When the middle part was left, there was still no green, and both the old man and Liu Yuan had sweat on their foreheads.

Han Zheng and Zhou Tao sat in the grand master's chair, drinking tea and eating cakes leisurely, making noises from time to time to make them not worry, maybe something good is about to be born.

The old man did not ask Liu Yuan to continue cutting the remaining middle part. He and Liu Yuan used the polishing machine to polish the remaining part little by little. After another hour, Han Zheng and Zhou Tao mixed the tea and The pastry was wiped out, and he burped from time to time. Seeing that there was only wool the size of the mouth of a basin, Zhou Tao was looking at Liu Yuan and the two who were sweating profusely. Zhou Tao said with a playful smile on his face: "Two be careful, There may be good news here, Lao Zhou, I want to witness the birth of rare treasures today!"

Forget about Liu Yuan and the old man’s tiredness. In the end, the old man asked Liu Yuan to cut the wool stone in the middle, but after cutting the wool in the middle, there was still nothing, and the two were dumbfounded.

"Ahem, what, brother Liu is making two cuts. That's how I picked up the leak last time, which made Brother Zhou lose his precious treasure. You still have a chance!" Han Zheng leaned on the bamboo chair, squinting his eyes. Smiling and comforting Liu Yuan, who was dripping with sweat and had an ugly face.

Liu Yuan held the stone cutter, "MD, I don't believe it!" He divided the two pieces of wool into four pieces, but after the second piece was cut, before Liu Yuan could see if he could see green, he saw a piece of wool. The khaki stuff rolled out.

When the four of them stepped forward to take a closer look, they found that it was actually an amber with a red fruit the size of a mountain apricot wrapped inside!

"Hehe, Liu Yuan's thing can really be regarded as a rare treasure, because I haven't seen amber with fruit inside yet, but now this thing is really worthless, my brother keeps his word, and put it at three times the price. Buy it!"

Han Zheng took the amber in his hand and observed it carefully, but his heart was full of joy. Zhou Tao beside him took out a hundred yuan bill and put it in Liu Yuan's hand, and comforted him: "Brother, don't be discouraged, people will go wrong. At that time, you can take 100 yuan, according to the wholesale price of the place where the amber is produced, my brother will add a retail price for you, 100 yuan is exactly three times!"

Han Zheng, who was playing with the amber, couldn't help curling his lips after hearing Zhou Tao's words: "I think a hundred is too much!" As soon as he said this, Liu Yuan's face turned purple like an eggplant, while his master's The old man swayed and sat slumped on the chair.
