Road to Urban Heroes

Chapter 232
There were many people around the booth that Tang Ya pointed out, and Lin Xiao could vaguely see the scene above the booth.

The booth is huge, and the floor is covered with a thick rain cloth.

There are big stones one after another on it, which looks bland.

But there is a price tag in front of each stone.

The price of each stone is clearly marked on it.

Lin Xiao has sharp eyes, and he can clearly see the prices on these price tags from a long distance. The minimum is tens of thousands of yuan.

"These big stones don't look very good, and they are not much different from the stones we usually see, but one can sell for tens of thousands of dollars, or even 10,000+, which is too expensive!" Lin Xiao couldn't help it Tucao up.

Listening to Lin Xiao's words, Tang Ya couldn't help laughing.

"This kind of situation is very common in Gambling Stone Square. If you look at the cheapest stones on these stalls, it costs thousands of dollars."

"But although these stones look ugly, they all come from jade mines in various places."

"It cannot be guaranteed that jade can be cut out of every stone, but compared with ordinary stones, there is still a chance of cutting out jade."

"It's just that whether you can cut the jade or not depends on the buyer's luck, and no one can guarantee it."

Tang Ya explained to Lin Xiao.

Lin Xiao nodded slightly and said, "Then let's not go to the bigger booth, just find a place and spend thousands of dollars to buy a small stone, let's try the water first."

Listening to Lin Xiao's words, Tang Ya couldn't help shaking her head slightly, and stretched out her hand to hold Lin Xiao's hand.

"You bastard, there are tens of thousands of fakes, and you are going to buy them all without blinking an eye. Why do you just pick and search like this?" Tang Ya asked with blinking eyes.

Lin Xiao suddenly felt very speechless. At the beginning, he didn't know that the blue and white porcelain vase was a fake, and betting on stones was completely different from antiques.

No matter whether you are facing a fake or not, there is a real object in front of you. You have to judge whether the antique is real or not according to your experience and eyesight.

But stone gambling is in a completely different state. What is placed in front of you is a big rock, and no one knows what is inside the rock until it is cut open.

Some people can scrutinize based on the surface texture of the stone and its various states.

But it remains to be seen whether such deliberations will lead to the conclusions they need.

In the final analysis, it still depends on the element of luck. If the luck is not good, no matter how much deliberation is done, it will not help.

"It's not the same thing at all, okay? I don't want to spend tens of thousands of dollars to buy some broken stones to go back. If I do that, I will really feel bad." Lin Xiao said with a helpless smile.

Tang Ya stopped joking and said, "Okay then, let's go to another place to have a look. If we find something we like, we'll buy a piece and cut stones."

After Tang Ya spoke, she took Lin Xiao's arm and was about to walk towards other stalls.

And at this moment, there was a sudden exclamation from that big booth.

It completely attracted the attention of Lin Xiao and Tang Ya.

"Boss Chen spent 50 yuan to buy the No. [-] rough stone and now he is going to cut the stone, everyone, go and see the excitement!" Some people are already discussing.

Among the crowd, a middle-aged man with a big belly and a Mediterranean hairstyle walked in the middle of it with a high air. Behind him were two staff members who were carrying a stone weighing about [-] to [-] kilograms.

Everyone surrounded him and walked towards the stone-cutting machine.

"Lin Xiao Lin Xiao, let's go to see the fun too, shall we?" Tang Ya suddenly became interested.

Lin Xiao naturally didn't have any opinions. Anyway, he didn't need to spend money, and it was also a very good thing to be able to watch other people's stone-cutting activities.

Lin Xiao agreed to come down and follow these people with Tang Ya. There were a lot of people watching the excitement around, and it was a little crowded. Tang Ya threw herself into Lin Xiao's arms.

Tang Ya snuggled up to Lin Xiao, and the two of them were close together, like a couple of young lovers.

Lin Xiao could smell the faint sweet fragrance emanating from Tang Ya's body.

The nephrite jade was warm and fragrant in his arms, which distracted him a lot.

In front of the stone cutting machine in front of him, Boss Chen has already handed over the big stone to a professional stone cutter.

Lin Xiao was interested in cutting stones, and he didn't want to be distracted by Tang Ya's small movements, so he concentrated his energy.

But at this moment, Lin Xiao's eyes fell on the big rock, and suddenly he felt something was wrong.

There seemed to be a voice in his heart telling him that there was nothing in this big rock.

Lin Xiao couldn't help but smiled, and shook his head thinking it was his fantasy.

Seeing Boss Chen's happy face, Lin Xiao didn't know why he had such a strange thought all of a sudden.

Whether this Boss Chen can cut out jade has nothing to do with him. How could he have such an idea?

Lin Xiao suppressed the thoughts in his heart, and then watched Master Jieshi cut Boss Chen's big rock.

With the roar of the machine, within a few minutes, Boss Chen's big rock was cut in half.

After washing, everyone's eyes were focused on it, and some people made regretful voices.

After cutting open the big stone, there is a piece of white flowers inside, all of which are asbestos, not even a little jade silk can be seen.

Boss Chen's face was still full of joy, but when he saw such a situation, his face darkened instantly.

But he was not reconciled at all, still urging Master Jieshi to cut it a few more times.

Master Jie Shi didn't say much, and cut Boss Chen's big rock to pieces several times in a row.

But there is no jade in each stone, and it is completely rubbish.

Seeing such a situation, Boss Chen also completely gave up, knowing that his 50 yuan just now was in vain, and it was useless for him to keep the remaining pile of rotten stones.

The crowd who watched the excitement dispersed one after another, and Tang Ya also felt very regretful and said: "50 is gone like this, it's such a pity to leave a pile of big rocks."

"But this is the charm of betting on stones. If you can cut out jade, you can still make a lot of money."

Lin Xiao just nodded slightly and didn't speak, because he remembered the thought that suddenly appeared in his mind just now.

Seeing Lin Xiao's silence, Tang Ya thought he was shocked.

"Don't worry, we won't spend so much money to buy stones. What I said just now was just a joke, just spend thousands of dollars to buy some small stones and enjoy yourself!" Tang Ya said with a smile .

She didn't want Lin Xiao to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on a stone and get nothing in the end.

After finishing speaking, Tang Ya wanted to drag Lin Xiao away.

Lin Xiao shook his head slightly, "Let's wait here and see if anyone else comes to cut stones!"
