The King of Hpakant had a small warehouse in Huika, which stored some stones.
Although the warehouse was small, because of the mining in the field, every inch of land was worth its weight in gold. The living area was mostly on backfilled pits, and the miners' houses were also on such pits.
This warehouse was not. It was on the edge of the living area, and below it was a mining area that had not been excavated. To be able to preserve a building in such a place was enough to prove the owner's ability.
Li Du knew that this must be one of the legacies left by the King of Old Hpakant. With the King's character, it would be strange if he could afford such a warehouse.
Tulsi and his men moved the stones inside to a corner, and then put the newly marked stones into the open space of the warehouse. Soon, there was a pile of stones.
They had spent hundreds of millions of dollars. As long as they did not buy the star stones, the price was enough to buy a lot of stones.
Back at the market, Li Du found a place to sit down. Soon, a businessman with a stone came to him. "My friend, what do you think of my stone …"
Li Du threw out a lot of money, and the stones either took a look or refused, so the money was spent very quickly. The stones flowed into the warehouse like water.
In the distance, the King of Hpakant's face was gloomy. His heart was bleeding. This was his money!
No matter what, Li Du's actions did not make people think that he was gambling on stones. This was just a foolish person spending money recklessly, especially when some businessmen took out some raw stones of poor quality that could not be cut to raise the price. However, Li Du still bought them.
After looking at the stones in the market, Li Du gradually became idle. At this point, he had spent more than two hundred million dollars.
Da Mao's face was red with excitement. He whispered, "Damn, boss, you really are a boss. Do you know how much money we spent today?"
Li Du waved his hand and said, "Quiet, quiet."
Seeing that he had no intention of speaking, Da Mao changed the topic. He was in a state of excitement and wanted to speak urgently. Pretending to be mute was too uncomfortable for a talkative person like him.
"Huika is the most comfortable to buy stones. Just sit here and someone will bring them up for you to see. Ruili is too tired. Walking around the market makes me breathless. Even then, I can't see any good stones. Damn! "
As he said this, he looked at Li Du, waiting for him to continue.
Li Du understood what he was thinking. He rolled his eyes and asked, "Why can't I see any good material?"
Sure enough, as soon as he opened his mouth, Da Mao perked up. "What else could it be? They're just putting on airs. The usual situation in Ruili is that those who set up stalls are all high and mighty. They don't even offer a price after looking at the goods and even give you a wink. Just sit here and don't move, and you can keep looking at the goods and negotiating the price. How cool is that! "
Li Du had never been to the local jade market, but he would get involved sooner or later. After all, he already had a lot of jade on him. Hence, after listening to Da Mao's words, he gradually became interested.
"How big is the price difference between Ruili and here?"
Da Mao pointed to the sky with his left hand and pointed to the ground with his right. He said exaggeratedly, "It's just this big. The difference between heaven and earth, the difference between the clouds and the earth! As long as we can see the green in the water, they will dare to ask for a sky-high price! "
As the two of them chatted, the King of Hpakant became impatient. He came over and said, "Hey, Mr. Mao, aren't you mute?"
Da Mao shrank back and continued to pretend to be mute.
Li Du tried to smooth things over for him and said seriously, "Do you know that there is a condition called psychologically uncontrollable vocal cord damage epilepsy? Mr. Mao has this condition. "
The King took off his sunglasses and asked, "What?"
Li Du repeated, "Psychologically uncontrollable vocal cord damage epilepsy is a kind of epilepsy caused by psychological tension. Do you know what epilepsy is? People who suffer from this condition will get sick when they are nervous, and the symptom of the condition is that they can't control their vocal cords and can't speak. "
Da Mao nodded vigorously and gestured, "Ah ba ba ba!"
Li Du continued, "In the end, this is a kind of psychological mute disease, which is rare in the world. Alas, the reason why Mr. Mao didn't come here before, even though he had the ability to identify stones."
The King waved his hand and said, "I don't care about that. You can say whatever you want. I just want to make money! What are you doing here now? Why aren't you working? "
Li Du spread out his hands and said, "There's no money."
The King stared angrily and roared, "No money? F * ck! Didn't I pay another 50 million? "
Li Du said, "Yes, but don't you know what you bought with the money? Go and see how many stones there are in the warehouse. "
Tulsi came up and said, "There are a lot of stones, but how much is the value of the stones in there …"
"Oh, you want us to continue working and selecting stones, don't you? No problem, give us the money, give us another 50 million, "Li Du interrupted Tulsi.
Hearing this, the King was so angry that he almost spat blood. He said fiercely, "There's no money, go cut the stones first! You'd better pray, boy, that the stones will rise, or I'll make you regret being born in this world! "
After that, he turned and walked to the warehouse aggressively.
Da Mao looked at Li Du worriedly. Li Du shrugged and said, "Let's go, it's time to reveal the mystery."
There were nearly 200 million worth of stones in the warehouse, which was a considerable amount. The raw materials were placed in the warehouse, and the outside was the black material that had not been cleaned, so they had to start from the black material.
The King did have some connections here. He made a phone call and the field sent a sharpener and a sharpener to cut the stones for them.
That day, Li Du's party was the star of the field, and many people were paying attention to them. When they saw them cutting the stones, they gathered around to watch.
"Hey, there are enough stones. Did the field provide a special service?"
"This is the King of Hpakant, old man. Interesting, the King of Hpakant and Dumb Pao are partners in stone gambling, haha."
"What are you laughing at? What's so funny? "
"Are you a rookie or an outsider? Haven't you heard of these two famous people? Wait and see, both of them are very unlucky. I'd like to see what they can buy together … "
Starting from a long strip of black material, the sharpener first opened the skylight and then sharpened the skin, and everything fell apart.
The faces of the King and Tulsi suddenly became gloomy again.
Picking up another piece of black material, the sharpener continued to cut, and it fell apart again!
Several pieces of black material were cut apart in succession, and the King's face was so gloomy that it could drip water.
There were more than two hundred pieces of black material there. The price of the black material was low, and Li Du bought a lot, so they piled up like a hill.
The sharpener was so busy that he was sweating profusely. One by one, the black material was quickly cut open and thrown away. He had cut hundreds of pieces in a row, but not a single one had risen!
The King was furious, but Li Du calmly waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, there are still so many stones. Just wait and see."
At this time, the King was sure that he had been tricked. He was so angry that he laughed. He pointed at Li Du and said, "Good, good, haha, I'll wait and see."
