Chapter 046 : Unlucky stoner.
In the center of the trading hall was a temporary platform that was more than one meter high. Fifty stone disintegrators were arranged in three rows on the platform. There was also a long table wrapped in red velvet at the southernmost part. Behind it sat six judges, five men and one woman. A middle-aged man in a white shirt stood in front of the long table with a microphone. His back was straight and his face had a professional smile.
The male voice from the loudspeaker resounded throughout the entire venue."Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Tengchong Stone Gambling Fair. Today, we will present you with a wonderful stone gambling competition. First, let\'s introduce the judges of this competition..." The middle-aged man briefly introduced the rules of the competition and began to enter the main theme, announcing the official start of the stone gambling competition.
There weren\'t many people qualified to enter the trade fair. A few rows of plastic benches had already been placed in front of the stage. Xu Qing and the others had specially found a good position to watch. The fly in the ointment was that they didn\'t bring melon seeds to pass the time.
Stalls 01 to 50 were the first to begin to dissect the stones. The fifty stone disintegrators started working together. Because they were so close, the noise was extremely ear-piercing. Even the judges on the high platform urged the stone disintegrators to water the stones.
All the raw materials were drawn with cutting lines before they were handed over, so the speed of stone cutting was also much faster. Even if there was any damage, it could only be blamed on the stall owners for making mistakes in drawing lines, and there was no worry for others.
Along the way, they sliced the stone and saw the fog. The stone disintegrator worked meticulously. His movements were skillful and steady as he cut open pieces of all the raw materials. The first batch of raw materials took less than an hour to be untied. Only the three stone disintegrators were still rotating. The grayish-white liquid mixed with the stone chips and clear water flowed down.
The last three stalls all contained jadeite. No. 26 and No. 18 were obviously high-quality ice type yellow-yang green jadeite, while the other was also a piece of gold type jadeite, but the color was not bright enough, and the water head was much worse than the previous two.
The reason why the stone gambling competition asked all participating stalls to hand in three all-gambling raw materials was to comprehensively evaluate the three items of water head, volume and value, so as to select the biggest winner. Number 18\'s high-ice yellow sun green jade was the size of two fists, and its volume was more than double that of Number 26.
A fingernail-sized glass jade was definitely not worth as much as a fist-sized high-grade ice jade. The final evaluation result was naturally that the high-grade ice jade won. The judges present were all experts in the jewelry and jade industry, and the evaluation was completely fair and just.
The probability of jade being extracted from this batch of raw materials was more than 50%. It was obvious that the stall owners were all taking out their best materials to compete, but there was only one champion. The winner could get all the jade for free, which was also an amazing fortune.
The Stone Gambling Competition was indeed a grand event that brought gambling to its peak.
"50 million. That\'s a generous sum. Looks like I really have to thank Boss Meng this time." A sinister male voice came from behind Xu Qing and the others. Even in such a hot day, it could give people goosebumps. Without looking, one would know that Bai had arrived.
Meng Shicheng was staring at the polishing stone on the stage. He watched the jade coming out of stall No. 18 one after another. He was nervous. Three bets and three rises. In addition to a high-ice yellow and green jade, there were two green jade with very good water heads. He was far ahead of the first batch of stone-breaking stalls. Even No. 26, who also participated in the invitation, was killed to pieces. It seemed that the stakes were really high this time.
His mind was in a mess. Bai Shengjun\'s sarcastic words behind him were blocked out. All he could hear was the grinding sound of grinding wheels grinding against stones.
Tang Guobin, who had goosebumps all over his body from being disgusted, was unhappy. He turned his head and glanced at Bai Shengjun. He scolded,"F * ck, are you an idiot or an idiot?" Open two pieces of garbage and don\'t be cocky. Keep your eyes wide open. You\'ll cry later."
Bai Shengjun didn\'t expect Meng Shicheng to ignore him and even encounter such a dirty meat. He cursed at him, but he still had to pay attention to his manners. Fang Piaopiao was standing beside him. His white face began to change color slowly, and in the end, it actually matched the color of the green jade on the stage.
"Sir, how can you curse so casually!" Fang Piaopiao frowned as she spoke. She seemed to be defending her boss.
Tang Guobin smiled coldly and said,"Sister-in-law, this Bai guy isn\'t a good bird to begin with. If I\'m willing to waste my saliva scolding him, he should thank the Virgin Mary. Otherwise, based on my previous temper, I\'ll definitely stomp him to death."
Fang Piaopiao couldn\'t do anything about this unreasonable character. She angrily walked up to Meng Shicheng and said,"Old Meng, I didn\'t expect to hang out with such an uneducated person all these years. It\'s really disappointing."
Meng Shicheng, who had recovered from his dilemma, was also furious. He suppressed his excitement and said,"Just like Bai is your boss, Young Master Tang is also my business partner, good friend, and good brother. It seems that no one has the right to tell me who to mix with, ex-wife!"
The last two words came out from between his teeth with a slight tremulo.
Fang Piaopiao\'s expression changed, and her eyes became moist. She bit her lip and didn\'t say anything. She knew that Meng Shicheng had bet fifty million against Bai Shengjun. She also felt an indescribable disgust towards Bai. She was still leaning towards Meng Shicheng in terms of their relationship. At least she knew that her ex-husband had participated in this gamble for her own sake.
At this time, the first batch of raw materials had already been solved. All the jadeites were marked and sent to the six judges \'tables. After a brief discussion, the judges reached a consensus. The emcee picked up the microphone and announced the winner. Stall 18 was temporarily ranked first without any suspense.
The second group of raw materials from stalls 51 to 100 was sent to the high platform. Xu Qing was surprised to find that the person responsible for untying the raw materials from stall 56 was actually the strong man who untied the chicken oil yellow material yesterday. It seemed that these fifty stone untillers were temporarily transferred from various stalls. It was a good win-win solution.
The stone disintegrator was activated again. Xu Qing walked closer to see the stone disintegrator clearly. The burly man indeed began to cut the stone according to the number marked on the stone. With a click, the first stone was immediately covered in white fog.
The burly man\'s expression changed. He grumbled in a low voice,"The first slash is already foggy. Isn\'t this torturing people?"
Rubbing a stone was a meticulous job, and the time and energy consumed was definitely not comparable to cutting a stone. The burly man had just solved the raw material from stall No. 26. He had gambled three times and two times, so he had to work half an hour longer than the others. This time, he had cut out fog on his first cut, so it was obvious that he was depressed.
After wiping away a layer of mist, a dazzling green light was revealed. The corner of the man\'s mouth lifted, and he deliberately moved his body to block the audience\'s view. However, two sharp-eyed judges on stage had already noticed the bright green light, and their eyes suddenly lit up.
