"No problem!" Yu Mingdong said straightforwardly. "Let's go and get the raw stone we won first!"
The group of people walked toward the service desk. Xia Ruofei and Song Wei walked side by side. Xia Ruofei smiled and asked, "Did you bring your card? Do you need me to pay for it? "
Song Wei pursed her lips and smiled. "I can still afford 120,000 yuan. I don't need you to pay for it! If I make a lot of money, then I won't be able to explain myself! "
Xia Ruofei laughed and said, "You said you don't have money. You took out 120,000 yuan without blinking an eye. You are also a little rich woman!"
Song Wei said coquettishly, "This is my private money that I saved for many years, okay? If I really lose everything, you have to compensate me! "
"Bah! We haven't opened the stone yet! You are just saying unlucky things … "Xia Ruofei said.
"Prepare for a rainy day! Rich people are all stingy. Who knows if you will go back on your word? "Song Wei said with a chuckle.
Soon, the group of people arrived at the service desk. Yu Mingdong went to handle the settlement procedures, while Xia Ruofei and Song Wei went to the adjacent area and showed the second page of the bidding list to the staff.
Song Wei's raw stone was very small. Not long after the card was swiped, the staff took the raw stone to the service desk.
After confirming that there was no mistake, the money and the goods were settled.
Then the two of them went to meet Yu Mingdong. Yu Mingdong was busy swiping his card and settling the payment. When he saw Xia Ruofei, he was a little surprised. "You finished so quickly?"
Xia Ruofei said with a smile, "It's just a small raw stone. You pay for it and I deliver the goods!"
"Mr. Xia, where are your raw stones?" Yu Mingdong asked in surprise.
"Oh, I'm not in a hurry." Xia Ruofei said, "I'll watch you guys cut the stones first!"
Xia Ruofei didn't plan to open the stones on the spot. These five raw stones were definitely very valuable. If he opened them on the spot, it would be too shocking, and it would inevitably arouse people's suspicions. No matter how lucky he was, it was impossible for him to be so lucky.
In essence, stone gambling was a probability event, and a huge increase was definitely a small probability event.
When the probability of a small probability event became 100%, it was definitely abnormal.
Xia Ruofei didn't want to attract the attention of people with ulterior motives, let alone become the center of attention.
Yu Mingdong said with some regret, "I wanted to open your raw stone first and try my luck at the same time!"
Xia Ruofei laughed out loud, "Director Yu, you're being superstitious! You can't! "
After hearing Xia Ruofei's words, even the female staff member who was handling the delivery procedures for Yu Mingdong couldn't help but chuckle.
How many people who came to participate in the public jade bid weren't superstitious? Looking at the almanac before going out, wearing one or two accessories that could increase one's luck … These were all very common. Some people even had strange habits from the perspective of feng shui metaphysics.
Yu Mingdong said with a smile, "Mr. Xia, this is a bit too much!"
"Haha! Don't worry, Director Yu. I believe your luck won't be too bad! "Xia Ruofei said with a laugh.
"Then I'm really counting on your auspicious words." Yu Mingdong said with great joy, as if the stones had really increased.
While they were chatting, Yu Mingdong's raw stones had been delivered.
Two of the stones were relatively large, and they were directly transported by forklift.
When the staff member learned that Yu Mingdong was going to cut the stones on the spot, she immediately arranged for the forklift to send the stones directly to the next door.
Xia Ruofei and the others also followed the forklift and walked out of the public jade bid site.
Song Wei held the raw stone that cost 120,000 yuan in her hand and followed behind Xia Ruofei excitedly.
Shi Lei had already found a free place to cut the stones first. Xia Ruofei went over to take a look and couldn't help but be happy. It was actually the stone-cutting master from the day before.
Yu Mingdong couldn't help but say happily, "Haha! Master, we're really fated! "
The stone-cutting master had been cutting stones for many people these days, but he still had a deep impression of Xia Ruofei and the others. Not only because their raw stones had increased greatly after they were cut out, but more importantly, because the process of cutting stones that day was really full of ups and downs and full of drama.
Therefore, the stone-cutting master also grinned and said, "Bosses, then I'll congratulate you in advance for making a fortune!"
The day before yesterday, he had received a red packet of 20,000 yuan, which was much more than what he usually earned.
"Haha, I'll count on your auspicious words …" Yu Mingdong said.
Then he politely said to Song Wei, "Miss Song, why don't … you start with your stone first?"
Song Wei was a little nervous. She looked at Xia Ruofei and cast an inquiring look.
Xia Ruofei laughed and said, "Don't look at me! You decide. It's the same when you cut it. "
Anyway, this raw stone would definitely increase in price. It was actually not bad to cut it first. It was equivalent to a good start and also a good omen for Yu Mingdong.
It didn't matter if it was cut later. Xia Ruofei also took a look at Yu Mingdong's raw stones. He still had an impression of at least four or five of them, which meant that the jade inside should be good.
Therefore, even if the other pieces might not be cut, in general, Yu Mingdong could at least maintain a breakeven.
For a jade shop owner, being able to buy good jade at cost price was already a very good result. After all, it was rare to make tens of millions like the day before.
Song Wei pondered for a moment, then nodded and said, "Well, let's cut mine first!"
After that, Song Wei handed the raw stone in his hand to the stonecutter.
The stonecutter weighed the raw stone in his hand and asked, "Boss, how do you want to cut it?"
Song Wei was naturally confused. She subconsciously looked back at Xia Ruofei.
Xia Ruofei said with a smile, "I don't know about this either. Mr. Yu, can you give me some advice? Or you can just grind it slowly! Anyway, this raw stone is not very big. "
Yu Mingdong said, "Then we'll do as Mr. Xia said!"
The stonecutter nodded quickly and quickly changed the grinding wheel. After fixing the raw stone, he directly turned on the power and began to grind.
Song Wei clenched her fists tightly and watched the stonecutter's movements very nervously.
It was the first time she had seen such a scene. Of course, she was looking forward to the beautiful jade in this seemingly inconspicuous stone.
Whether it made money or not was secondary.
As the stone chips flew, many people came to watch the fun.
Especially when they saw that the stonecutter was Xia Ruofei, Yu Mingdong, and the others, more and more people gradually gathered around. They were in the limelight the day before yesterday. They directly ruined the reputation of a senior stone-gambling consultant and made tens of millions. It could be said that they were the biggest winners of that public bid.
Everyone also wanted to see if the miracle last time could be repeated.
"It's green, it's green!" A sharp-eyed person shouted loudly.
The stonecutter was the person closest to the raw stone. He had also seen it. He immediately moved the grinding wheel away from the raw stone and turned off the power.
He put down the grinding wheel, went over to take a wet cloth, and wiped the place where he had just polished it.
Song Wei also approached the raw stone with Xia Ruofei. She saw with her own eyes that after the stonecutter wiped the stone with a wet cloth, the place where he had polished it revealed a touch of intoxicating green. She couldn't help but cheer.
Finally, she saw the most primitive jade! It turned out that the raw materials of those beautiful jade products were produced like this! Song Wei also had a strange feeling in her heart.
Xia Ruofei saw Song Wei's cheering and couldn't help but smile.
In fact, Song Wei used to be more like a lady from a wealthy family. She was very polite and treated people very well. Moreover, she grew up in a leading family, so she naturally had a trace of grace and luxury. However, when she was with Xia Ruofei, her nature was released. Sometimes, she was like a carefree little girl. In fact, Song Wei was not much younger than Xia Ruofei.
"This water head is not bad!"
"How much was this raw stone bought at the auction? It's definitely going to rise! "
"It's so shallow, but it's already green. I'm afraid it's going to rise greatly!"
Everyone was also talking about it.
Yu Mingdong was also happy. He thought in his heart that Mr. Xia was really a lucky star. Today was a good start. His stonecutter should be very smooth!
Many people came over to look at the raw stone. Some impatient people even directly started to bid.
"Miss, are you selling this raw stone? I'm willing to pay 200,000 yuan! "
"230,000 yuan! Sell it to me! "Just as the first person bid, someone immediately increased the price by 20,000 yuan.
Song Wei was also shocked. She bought this stone for 120,000 yuan. It was just a small window polished by a grinder, but the price doubled. No wonder so many people were crazy about stone gambling …
Song Wei also didn't understand. It was just a small opening, so why were these people bidding so enthusiastically? Weren't they afraid that there was only a little bit of jade inside?
What Song Wei didn't know was that these people were all experienced in this industry for many years. They could more or less tell that a raw stone with a window was already opened.
Moreover, wasn't the core of stone gambling the word "gambling"? Bidding like this was betting that it would rise in the future. If all the raw stones were opened, there would be no room for speculation. The price would basically be transparent.
Xia Ruofei naturally didn't want Song Wei to sell it now. He was 100% sure that this raw stone would rise greatly. If they continued to open it, they would only make more money.
But before he could remind Song Wei, Song Wei had already said, "I'm sorry! I'm not selling this raw stone! Master, please continue to open it! "
The stone-cutter grinned and said, "Okay!"
The grinder made a buzzing sound again. The stone-cutter carefully operated — after the outer layer of the raw stone was ground off, the jade appeared, so he had to be extra careful to avoid accidentally damaging the jade.
Seeing that Song Wei didn't want to sell, the stone-cutter didn't stop in the following process. He skillfully operated the equipment and used various appropriate methods. Soon, this small raw stone was completely opened.
What appeared in front of everyone was a fist-sized jade — although this raw stone was not big, the jade inside was not small.
Yu Mingdong went to look at the quality of the jade first and then said happily, "Miss Song, congratulations! This is a waxy jade, and the quality is quite good! Judging from the price you bought it, this material has risen greatly! "
"Thank you, Mr. Yu!" Song Wei happily took the piece of jadeite and held it in her hands lovingly. Her eyes were almost shining.
Of course, this was not because Song Wei was greedy, but because a girl liked beautiful jadeite from the bottom of her heart. Especially when this piece of jadeite was personally picked out from thousands of raw stones, from such an inconspicuous stone. This sense of accomplishment was unparalleled. Although it was with Xia Ruofei's guidance, Song Wei's heart was still filled with a sense of accomplishment.
Yu Mingdong hesitated and said, "Miss Song, I don't know if you want to sell this jade? I'm willing to buy it for 500,000 yuan! "
Originally, the onlookers were still thinking about competing. After all, this jade was of good quality and was not small, enough to take out a bracelet.
However, as soon as Yu Mingdong's price was announced, everyone was dejected. Yu Mingdong's price had reached the ceiling. Even if they bought it at this price, they would at most break even. Unless they were jade merchants who were especially short of raw materials and didn't gain anything from this auction, they would rush to buy it at a loss.
Song Wei held the waxy jade and said, "Mr. Yu, I'm sorry! I want to keep this jade for myself … "
Xia Ruofei couldn't help but ask, "Song Wei, why? Now you can make several times more money by selling it. It's useless for you to keep a piece of jade! "
Song Wei looked at Xia Ruofei and whispered in his ear, "Because I found it myself! Your craftsmanship is so good, I want you to carve a few ornaments for me … "
Xia Ruofei didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He said, "Song Wei, to be fair, the quality of this jade is not the best. It can't be compared with your Doraemon pendant … I think the best choice is to sell it. As for the other jade products you want, I can find better jade materials …"
Song Wei's eyes couldn't help but light up and ask, "You mean the raw stones you bought …"
Xia Ruofei hurriedly said, "I can't guarantee this. Who can guarantee whether there will be jade in the raw stone, and what kind of jade it will be? But I have a good relationship with the Ma family in Hong Kong. It's not a big problem if I want to buy one or two pieces of top jade materials. "
Song Wei nodded. After thinking for a while, he said to Yu Mingdong, "Mr. Yu, I've decided to transfer this jade to you. The price will be as you said, 500,000 yuan!"
Yu Mingdong was overjoyed and said, "Thank you! Thank you! Miss Song, thank you for giving it to me! I'll transfer the money to you right away! "
In fact, Yu Mingdong's surprised expression was more of an act. He wouldn't be so happy for a small piece of waxy jade. Moreover, there was no profit at all at this price.
He was giving face to Xia Ruofei and also wanted to repay Xia Ruofei.
Yu Mingdong asked for Song Wei's bank account number, then quickly wrote a check and handed it to Shi Lei. He asked Shi Lei to transfer the money to the bank staff who was working at the public bid site next door.
Soon, Song Wei received a text message reminder that 500,000 yuan had been transferred to her account. She couldn't help but feel a little unreal. In a few hours, her 120,000 yuan had become 500,000 yuan? She had only written a list, and she had already earned 380,000 yuan!
What could be faster than making money like this?
