Song Tingran was afraid that some people didn't know what stone gambling was, so he asked Sang Cheng to explain the rules of stone gambling.

Chang Yuqiao came over carrying a plate covered with a red cloth.

"Everyone, please see."

Song Tingran opened the red cloth as he spoke, and a crystal clear green and white Hetian jade appeared, lying in the center of a small leather box.

"This is the good product I bet the stone shop sold yesterday. The price of the stone is only fifty taels of silver, but how much is this green and white Hetian jade worth? You should have heard about it on weekdays."

This was cut with a stone cutter yesterday. It can be used for publicity today and placed in the store. If someone likes it, they can buy it at the market price.

The onlookers had different expressions. There had never been a Gambling Stone Shop in this town before. This was unusual. It felt quite interesting, but the investment of fifty taels of silver was not small.

If you win, you will naturally make a profit, but if you miss, you will lose money directly.

There was no particularly big response. Song Tingran also thought in advance that these ordinary people were not the target customers of Gambling Stone Square.

Song Tingran wasted no time and immediately set off all the firecrackers and tore off the red cloth on the Stone Gambling Signboard in the excitement.

At this moment, this is Ping'an Town, the busiest place.

Although the onlookers were hesitant, they still applauded to celebrate the opening.

The front door of Gambling Stone Square is covered with red shredded paper after firecrackers, making it look even more festive.

Zhao Yu rushed over. Seeing that no one was buying anything, he asked directly: "I want to try one."

Song Tingran pretended that he didn't know him and said: "One tael of silver, you can choose whatever you want on this table, and you can cut it for free. You are a good boy."

"Okay, feel free."

Zhao Yu paid the money immediately. She was actually bleeding in her heart. It was not that she couldn't afford it, but that it was not worth buying a stone for one tael of silver, but for Song Tingran, it was worth it.

She didn't understand these things at first, so she picked one up, looked at it, put it down again, and pretended to choose.

In the end, under everyone's attention, I chose a medium-sized stone. It was a bit bumpy on the outside and not very smooth. Overall, it was quite satisfactory.

"Just this one."

“Customers have made their selections and cannot change them once they have been selected.”

"Well, that's it."

Song Tingran made way for Zhao Yu and allowed Sang Cheng to take her in to cut stones. The onlookers looked curiously inside, wanting to know what they bought with these two taels of silver.

The sound of stone cutting soon sounded inside. It was the first time that Zhao Yu saw this stone cutting tool. He stood here and watched intently.

The stone was not large and was cut quickly.

Sang Cheng picked it up, carefully patted off the stone powder on the surface, and handed it to Zhao Yu with both hands, a look of surprise on his face.

When Zhao Yu saw the white color inside, she knew something had been cut out. She was lucky, at least it helped rather than harmed her.

She quickly took it out because she wanted to show the people outside that the Song Family Betting Stone Shop had good products.

These days, Sang Cheng also worked in private day and night, acquiring a lot of knowledge about stones.

"Congratulations to this distinguished guest, the precious stone has cut the white jade in the Hotan jade!" Sang Cheng stood next to Zhao Yu and said loudly.

And Zhao Yu also raised it up for the onlookers to look at without hesitation.

"The quality of this white jade is good, but there are a few impurities on the edges, but it can be bought for one tael of silver, so it is already very suitable."

The speaker was the owner of a jewelry shop in Ping'an Town, and she always spoke with authority.

She moved closer to Zhao Yu, wanting to see the white jade up close.

Zhao Yuhao handed it to her.

What everyone didn't expect was that the owner of the jewelry shop actually wanted to buy this uncarved white jade and offered three taels of silver.

If Zhao Yu agrees, he can make twenty taels of silver by changing hands, just for a cup of tea.

Zhao Yu didn't understand this and was a little hesitant. He wanted to ask Song Tingran, but he was afraid that everyone would know that the two knew each other.

The owner of the jewelry shop thought that Zhao Yu was dissatisfied with the poor price. After all, in her understanding, those who could come to play stone gambling were experienced people.

"If this white jade has no impurities, the price will definitely be higher. You will also earn three taels of silver, how about it?" The owner of the jewelry shop continued to persuade.

Song Tingran knew that the owner of the jewelry shop was suppressing the price, but she only sold stones and could not interfere in the business between customers. She immediately asked Sang Cheng and Shi Xiaoer to continue selling here, and she entered the stone betting shop.

Zhao Yu took back the white jade and said that she wanted to think about it again. While the onlookers were asking questions, she also slipped into the stone betting shop.

In the backyard of Beishifang, Song Tingran had already poured tea and was waiting.

"Sister Zhao, you came quite quickly. You are very lucky today."

Zhao Yu sat down and took a sip. He felt that there was a hint of sweetness in the slight greenness, so he took another sip.

"Your stones are good. I can probably pick them no matter what I choose. Tell me, how much is this thing worth? The owner of the jewelry shop actually spent three taels of silver to buy it."

"The price she offered is not high. Although there are impurities on the edge of the white jade, it is on the edge and is easy to handle. Although such a piece is not big, it has a good shape. If sold, it should be worth eight taels of silver. Or so, if she polishes the decorations and sells them several times in the store, there will be no problem."

Zhao Yu was shocked that this thing was so violent after entering the store, "It's useless for me to ask for this thing. At that time, I followed the idea you said and asked her for eight taels of silver."

After saying that, Zhao Yu felt that something was not right.

"Sister Song, if I don't buy it, I can make it into jewelry. Wouldn't it be more valuable?"

"Yes, sister, have you realized the charm of gambling on stones? Either those who make money quickly will be dazzled, but again, or lose money and lose everything. This is just a tael of silver to test the water. The other stones in the store are not cheap. Woolen cloth."

Zhao Yu nodded and had an idea in her mind. To be honest, she was really tempted just now, but she was awakened by Song Tingran's words. Otherwise, she would definitely still have to spend money today.

Song Tingran heard that it seemed to be open outside, and quickly asked Zhao Yu to go out through the back door to avoid being seen. He was half-hearted at first, but if he really bumped into him, he would really be misunderstood as Shi Tuo.

When I went out, I discovered that it was the owner of the jewelry shop who also bought a stone. However, she was not very lucky. It was a dead stone. It didn't matter if she held it in her hand and kept it, or threw it away.

Compared with the other three passers-by, these three people did not seem to be locals from Ping'an Town. From the accents, they were distinguished guests from other places.

The three people didn't know each other, and two of them had drawn the color. The ratio of the draws was really high.
