In fact, when Xia Ruofei learned that there was a large-scale jadeite stone trading public bid in Rui Zhou, his heart had already moved slightly.
Although there was no equipment that could see through the stone and detect the jadeite content inside the stone, Xia Ruofei had a way to determine whether there was jadeite in a stone and how much jadeite it contained. He could even roughly determine the quality of the jadeite.
This method was naturally to use the Spiritual Map Scroll.
Xia Ruofei had used this trick when he was in the Three Mountains. As long as he touched the jadeite stone with his hand, if the stone contained the jadeite that the Spiritual Map Scroll needed, the Spiritual Map Scroll would tremble slightly. The more jadeite there was and the higher the quality, the more intense the reaction of the Spiritual Map Scroll would be.
In fact, at that time, Xia Ruofei had accidentally obtained the Boundary Stone, which was also the most intense reaction of the Spiritual Map Scroll. He didn't even need to touch the Boundary Stone, and the Spiritual Map Scroll trembled on its own. It seemed to be very urgent.
As the saying went, "Even an immortal can't judge an inch of jade." Even an experienced stone gambling consultant like He Ping could at most make an estimate based on his experience by looking at the appearance, color, cracks, or the "window" of the raw stone. At most, he would have a slightly higher probability of hitting the jackpot than ordinary people.
Even the best stone gambling consultant wouldn't dare to pat his chest and guarantee that he would hit the jackpot 100% of the time. If it was really so magical, who would be a consultant for others? Wouldn't you be rich if you bought it yourself?
And Xia Ruofei had the Spiritual Map Scroll, which was like a cheat. Even if he knew nothing about stone gambling, he could still hit the jackpot 100% of the time. Those stone gambling experts and consultants couldn't be compared to him.
Take a good gamble!
This thought became even stronger after Xia Ruofei entered the public bid site.
Buying jadeite was the same as buying raw stones. In comparison, the raw stones that had already been opened were much more expensive.
And it was very likely that one would get a good deal when gambling on raw stones.
Perhaps with a small amount of money, she would be able to obtain enough jade materials to upgrade the Spiritual Map Dimension. Xia Ruofei's mind was still filled with thoughts of upgrading the Dimension. After all, Song Wei was still unconscious.
There were still more than two hours before the bidding deadline. Although there were countless raw stones on the site, Xia Ruofei didn't need to think about it repeatedly. As long as he touched the raw stones with his hand, he could get the answer immediately. A raw stone didn't even need a second to be appraised, so there was still enough time.
As for using their hands to touch the raw stones, naturally, no one would care. Those stone gambling experts had spray bottles, wet cloths, and strong flashlights. They all wanted to lie on top of the raw stones. In order to appraise a piece of raw stone, it was inevitable that they had to touch the raw stones.
These raw stones were not expensive antiques. As long as they were not taken away secretly, the security personnel at the scene would never interfere.
The only problem now was that these raw stones were not auctioned. Instead, everyone wrote their own prices and put them in the bidding box. There was a lot of chance in this.
It was very likely that the raw stones that Xia Ruofei liked were also liked by many people. It was hard to say whether they would win the bid.
After all, Xia Ruofei knew nothing about this industry. He didn't know anything about the people in the industry. He couldn't judge the price at all, and he couldn't guess what price others would probably offer.
If Xia Ruofei also had a stone gambling consultant, it would be fine. After all, there was someone who knew the industry to provide professional advice. But now he was alone, and he couldn't ask He Ping to help him. Yu Mingdong's time was a little tight.
Fortunately, Xia Ruofei quickly thought of a solution, and this problem was easily solved.
He stood in front of a bidding box and tried to use his spiritual power to spy on it. He immediately showed a trace of joy. The list in the bidding box was all visible, and the price written on it naturally couldn't be hidden from Xia Ruofei's spiritual power.
This was equivalent to activating another cheating device. There was nothing that could stop Xia Ruofei from stirring up trouble in today's jadeite public bid!
Xia Ruofei thought for a moment and said to Yu Mingdong, "Mr. Yu, I'll help you. I'll just take a look!"
Yu Mingdong's mind was also full of the raw stones that He Ping liked, so he immediately nodded and said, "Okay! Mr. Xia, if you want to buy a few pieces to play with, don't bid so easily. I'll ask Mr. He to help check! "
"There's no need, there's no need." Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "You're so busy. Even if I want to buy some, I'll just play with them. I won't bother Mr. He."
Yu Mingdong and He Ping really didn't have time, so he said straightforwardly, "Okay, but you'd better not compete for the stones that are too expensive. The water in this industry is very deep!"
Xia Ruofei knew that Yu Mingdong was being kind, so he nodded and said with a smile, "I know, Mr. Yu!"
Yu Mingdong then said, "Mr. Xia, if there's really a stone that you like, you should bid. The organizer of the double list has registered it. I've already paid the deposit. You just need to fill it in and put it in the bidding box, and it will definitely be valid!"
In fact, to participate in the public jade bid, one had to pay a certain amount of deposit. This was also to prevent people from bidding maliciously and disrupting the trading order.
Yu Mingdong was very thoughtful. When he entered the door just now, he deliberately took an extra double list and registered it under his name. It was prepared for Xia Ruofei.
Anyway, even if Xia Ruofei couldn't afford it, Mr. Ma from Hong Kong wouldn't let him suffer a loss.
Xia Ruofei smiled and nodded. "Understood!"
Then, Xia Ruofei didn't walk with Yu Mingdong anymore. Instead, he strolled in another direction.
Yu Mingdong looked at Xia Ruofei who was walking away. He saw that Xia Ruofei was indeed like a rookie participating in the public jade bid for the first time. Along the way, he touched the stones in front of him from time to time with curiosity in his eyes, but he never stopped in front of a stone for a moment.
Yu Mingdong smiled and said to He Ping, "Mr. He, let's continue!"
…
After leaving Yu Mingdong and the others, Xia Ruofei wasn't very conspicuous in the crowd. As he strolled along, he couldn't help but be secretly speechless. Along the way, there was almost no reaction from the Spirit Map scrolls. Only a few of them would tremble slightly.
This meant that in those unresponsive stones, there must be very little jade content, or even no jade at all.
Xia Ruofei also stood in front of a stone that didn't respond for a moment and used his mental power to look at the situation in the bidding box.
Because the starting price of this stone wasn't low, it was 80,000 yuan.
As a result, Xia Ruofei found that there were already more than a dozen orders in the bidding box. The highest price among them was 200,000 yuan.
In other words, if no one offered a higher price, then this guy who bid the highest price was equivalent to buying an ordinary stone with 200,000 yuan.
Even if this stone came from the old pit, it was too much of a scam!
And there were many such stones, which showed how high the risk of stone gambling was.
Xia Ruofei shook his head with a smile and continued to stroll around the public bidding site as if nothing had happened.
Every stone he passed by, he would consciously or unconsciously reach out and touch it.
Occasionally, Xia Ruofei would stop and record in a small book. There were many people like him in the field, so his behavior was inconspicuous.
The stones that could make Xia Ruofei stop were naturally the ones that had a bigger reaction from the Spirit Map scrolls.
He mainly recorded the numbers of the stones, their positions, and the highest bid price.
Although the public bidding site was very big and there were many stones, it couldn't stop Xia Ruofei's efficiency!
It took him about an hour to "appraise" all the raw stones.
Although there were occasionally people who noticed Xia Ruofei who had been strolling around, they only thought that Xia Ruofei was a young man who came out with his family elders to see the world, so they didn't care.
No one knew that right now, Xia Ruofei's little notebook was already filled with several pages of notes.
Xia Ruofei also couldn't see the situation inside the stones. He compared and judged based on the reaction of the Spirit Map scrolls in his body.
Therefore, in these records, there were many special symbols that only Xia Ruofei could understand.
These symbols represented different priorities.
In addition, Xia Ruofei was now an expert whose spiritual power had reached the Spirit Throbbing Stage, so his brain was naturally far more developed than ordinary people. Even if he couldn't have a photographic memory, he wasn't far off.
If the brain of an ordinary person was an ordinary home computer, then Xia Ruofei's brain's calculation and analysis ability was at least a large server, or even an ordinary supercomputer.
Therefore, Xia Ruofei quickly sorted out the data in an orderly manner.
In a short while, Xia Ruofei had already determined eight targets, and this was the result of Xia Ruofei's continuous screening.
After all, there were too many raw stones on the public plate, and there were naturally many that contained jade. No matter how big Xia Ruofei's appetite was, it was impossible for him to eat all of them in one go.
Whether or not he had enough money was secondary. The key was that if he did this, then the raw stones that others bought would all be a pile of useless stones. Once such a strange situation happened, even a fool would know that there was a problem.
Even if he bought the raw stones and didn't open them on the spot, the organizers would have a record. When the time came, other than him buying a large number of raw stones, everyone else would lose. It would definitely be noticed by people with ulterior motives.
Therefore, it was naturally not good to be too greedy.
In addition, to be honest, Xia Ruofei didn't have enough money.
Xia Ruofei could be considered to have some assets, but on this jade public plate, the starting price of the few giant raw stones with the potential to be the king was easily tens of millions. Even if his appetite was too big, it was impossible for him to eat all of them.
Therefore, there had to be a trade-off.
First of all, although those that would definitely have jade, but the jade content was not high, were eliminated by Xia Ruofei in the first step.
Secondly, although some of the Ling-Tu Painting Scrolls had a very strong reaction, they had already opened a skylight. Their performance was quite good, and the starting price was ridiculously high. They were also eliminated by Xia Ruofei reluctantly. The reason was very simple, the price-performance ratio was not high.
Xia Ruofei bought the raw stones for the space to absorb and upgrade, not to gamble and sell them for money. He definitely wouldn't open them on the spot, so in the case of many choices, the ones that cost too much were naturally excluded by him.
Xia Ruofei mainly stared at the raw stones that were not favored by the organizers and the stone gamblers, but in fact, they were of quite high quality.
To put it bluntly, he was picking up scraps.
Naturally, there weren't many chances to pick up scraps, but with the support of a large number of people, Xia Ruofei still found a few pieces.
Out of the eight raw stones that he finally decided on, seven of them were the kind that didn't seem to be obvious, and some of them were even ignored, but the reaction of the Ling-Tu Painting Scrolls was very obvious.
The most important thing was that these seven raw stones were all quite cheap.
Xia Ruofei used his spiritual power to spy on the situation in the bidding box, and added up the highest price of the seven raw stones so far, it was only a little over three million. In other words, as long as he grasped the right timing, he could get it for more than three million.
Even if Xia Ruofei didn't want to be too obvious, and just happened to suppress the highest price of others, the total price wouldn't exceed three million and five hundred thousand.
As for the jade contained in these seven raw stones, although Xia Ruofei couldn't calculate the specific value, but from the reaction of the Ling-Tu Painting Scrolls, compared to the situation of the other raw stones, it was probably more than ten times more expensive. It was definitely a profitable business.
As long as he operated it well, Xia Ruofei could spend only three million and get jade worth thirty to forty million, or even forty to fifty million.
With so much jade, it might be enough for the Ring-Tu space to upgrade.
Xia Ruofei was now wholeheartedly thinking about upgrading the space, so his heart was also restless.
As for the last raw stone that he chose, the price was not low.
The starting price of this raw stone reached five million. Although it didn't have any skylights and was a raw stone that was all gambled, it was still very popular.
First of all, the size of this raw jade stone was quite large. From the size, it could at least be ranked in the top fifteen of the public jade plate. It was almost the size of a square table, and a conservative estimate of its weight was more than five hundred kilograms. It would probably require a forklift to move it.
In addition, it might be that its appearance was better. Xia Ruofei didn't know much about this, but there was no lack of stone gambling experts in front of this raw stone, which was already very clear.
This raw stone numbered 1896, when Xia Ruofei just walked by, there were already dozens of bids in the bidding box. Xia Ruofei paid attention to check, and the highest price had already reached 8.3 million.
There was still an hour before the bidding deadline, and this price might be refreshed.
Although this raw stone was very popular and the price was frighteningly high, Xia Ruofei still couldn't bear to cross it off the book after much consideration.
The reason was very simple. This raw stone could make the Spirit Map Scroll tremble violently, and the intensity of the reaction could at least be ranked in the top three of all the raw stones present.
As for the other two raw stones that had a stronger reaction, Xia Ruofei didn't hesitate to give up.
Those two raw stones were all gambled materials, and the starting price was higher, so the competition was more intense. There were at least two to three hundred bids in the bidding box for the first raw stone, and the highest bid was seventy to eighty million.
If nothing went wrong, that raw stone would be the king of the bids today.
In fact, from the reaction of the Spirit Map Scroll, the jade contained in this king of the bids would definitely not be ten times that of the raw stone that Xia Ruofei finally left behind.
Not to mention ten times, even two or three times would be difficult.
Therefore, the raw stone that might cost eight or nine million to buy was actually the most cost-effective.
Xia Ruofei thought for a long time, and felt that he wasn't willing to give up any of these eight raw stones.
In the end, he made up his mind to try his best to get them all!
