Military Marriage: Young Master Han's Intriguing Wife

Chapter 268 The Mysterious Stone "Five thousand?" Song Lingzi thought to herself, if she wanted five thousand, she still wouldn't buy it.A small copperware was bought for [-], obviously exceeding expectations. "Forget it, I don't want it anymore."

Lan Siyu did not give up and continued to lobby the shop owner. "One thousand, one thousand we will buy."

The shop owner saw that Lan Siyu wanted to buy it and give it to the woman in front of him, so he gritted his teeth and said, "Not for sale." He was sure that Lan Siyu would buy it.

Lan Siyu was about to bargain, but was stopped by Song Lingzi. "Not worth it. I don't like to buy something that isn't worth it."

Lan Siyu understood Song Lingzi's meaning in an instant.When the price of an item exceeds its own value, it does lose the meaning of buying it. "This market is so big, there will always be something you like, and you can choose slowly."

"Okay, I'll pick it slowly." Song Lingzi also had the same intention, so she walked forward. "Right now, I just want to sleep."

Seeing that they were about to leave, the shop owner was anxious: "One thousand is one thousand..."

Song Lingzi didn't look back. To her, the store owner's behavior of raising prices without satisfaction was really disgusting.

Lan Siyu didn't go back to buy it either, he knew that Song Lingzi was a principled person, a principled person, and he didn't like being stepped on the bottom line.

After walking all the way, Song Lingzi really opened her eyes. Regardless of the authenticity of things, sometimes when she sees some high imitation works, she has to admire the technology of Chinese fakes.If you put this kind of fake mind into a serious business, it is definitely not a dream to surpass the United States in 50 years.

Lan Siyu was obviously a regular customer, and accompanied Song Lingzi all the way, helping Song Lingzi bargain, but he didn't intend to buy it.No, seeing that Song Lingzi picked up another piece of jade from the shelf to look at, he hurriedly stepped forward to stop Song Lingzi: "Lingzi, let's buy it another day."

Song Lingzi put down the jade and understood what Lan Siyu meant.The jade here is not pure enough, and its color is not good. "Okay. Let's go ahead and have a look."

The shop owner originally thought that there was a business to be done, but in the end, he watched the fat fish slip away.

"You like Jade Guanyin?" Lan Siyu asked. "That Jade Guanyin is of poor quality."

Song Lingzi nodded, "I know that Jade Avalokitesvara is not of good quality, so I bought it to serve as a model."

"What do you mean?" Lan Siyu was a little surprised by Song Lingzi's statement.

"Men wear Avalokitesvara and women wear Buddha. This is a folk saying. My husband is a soldier and has a murderous aura. I hope Jade Avalokitesvara will help him block the evil spirits and keep him safe forever." Song Lingzi was in a good mood and explained patiently.

Lan Siyu's eyes were a bit complicated, he thought that Song Lingzi was going to give it to his mother, but he didn't expect that the person she really wanted to give it to was her husband Han Shaoting. "Actually, I have known you for so long, and I have not met your husband many times. I am a little curious about his character. At least, in my opinion, he is a cold person who is not easy to get along with, but I see you , seems to get along well with him."

"Would it be?" Song Lingzi occasionally felt that Han Shaoting was a little colder, but it was not cold.Perhaps, in her eyes, Han Shaoting still has other advantages, which conceal the fact that he is indifferent. "Maybe he is indifferent to people he doesn't know well."

Lan Siyu remembered Han Shaoting's warning eyes, and a smile slowly overflowed from the corner of his mouth. "Perhaps he regards me as an enemy."

"If you are really his enemy, be careful." Song Lingzi took it as a joke. "My husband is very capable, and it's not something you can handle."

"You admire your husband's ability very much." Lan Siyu came to a conclusion. "This is your strength. You always look at the strengths of others, not the weaknesses of the other person."

"How many people in this world do not have flaws?" Song Lingzi smiled and said, "If I focus on his flaws, I will be tired, and he will be tired too, and sooner or later we will break up."

"That's true." Lan Siyu also felt that Song Lingzi's words made some sense. "There is an old store in front, do you want to go in and have a look? I dare not say anything else, the quality of jade is still guaranteed."

"It seems that you are a regular customer here." Song Lingzi thought to herself, Lan Siyu definitely came here more than once or twice.

"I'm a jeweler, so naturally I have to come here often to search for treasures." Lan Siyu didn't hide it, "Sometimes if you're lucky, you can really find good things."

Song Lingzi smiled wryly, "My luck is not very good. For example, everyone said that I will win the first time I play cards, but I will lose. Even if I buy Mark Six, people can win three or four numbers, and I will win only one." The numbers didn't hit either."

Lan Siyu smiled when he heard this answer. "Are you so superstitious? Actually, these are not your bad luck. Many people will lose money when they play poker for the first time. There are also many people who buy Mark Six every day, but they don't win a single number."

"Can you comfort me?" Song Lingzi took Lan Siyu's words as kind comfort.

"How is it possible?" Lan Siyu wanted to prove his words. "Why don't you try your luck today."

"How to try?" Lan Siyu aroused Song Lingzi's curiosity.

"It's stone gambling." Lan Siyu's eyes shone brightly. "Stone gambling requires both professional knowledge and personal luck."

Song Lingzi hesitated for a while, "I don't know much about betting on stones..."

"No one knows everything at birth." Lan Siyu saw Song Lingzi's hesitation, and encouraged Song Lingzi with a few words: "If you don't try, you will never know the result."

When Song Lingzi came here, she wanted to try gambling with stones, but she was afraid that her luck would be bad, so she offered a few stones to affect her mood. "How about we come back to gamble when we are leaving?"

"Let's bet, it's nothing." Lan Siyu continued to persuade, "We're not making a big bet, it's just for fun."

Song Lingzi's heart was moved by the words "the nature of playing tickets". "In that case, let's try it."

Seeing Song Lingzi hurrying forward, Lan Siyu shook his head and laughed: "Where are you going to gamble?"

"The stone gambling shop in front." Song Lingzi pointed to the stone gambling shop not far ahead. "I see a lot of people over there."

"Go this way." Lan Siyu turned in one direction. "A store with customers may not be a good store. Some stores, in order to attract business, think of some gimmicks to attract customers."

Song Lingzi thought about it, and felt that Lan Siyu's words made some sense.Following Lan Siyu into a store, Song Lingzi found that the decoration of this store is very unique, there are antique shelves on three walls, and there are many antiques, jade, porcelain...

In the center of the store, there are a lot of woolen materials. From the outside, it is difficult to see which stone contains emerald. However, someone came out with green, and the value of this stone doubled immediately, becoming the emerald that everyone covets.

As soon as Lan Siyu came in, he greeted the shop owner, and then introduced Song Lingzi and Gao Yangyang to the shop owner: "This is my friend Song Lingzi and Gao Yangyang, and this is the shop owner, Lao Yang. Lao Yang's shop has been here for a few years. Ten years, it can be called a time-honored brand."

Song Lingzi saw Lan Siyu's admiration for this old Yang, and greeted Lao Yang with a smile: "Please take care of me."

"You're welcome, you're too polite." Lao Yang said with a smile, "Since this young lady is a friend of Mr. Lan, take your time and take a look. If you like it, I'll give you a [-]% discount."

Song Lingzi secretly calculated that if there is really a [-]% discount, it will be a really good discount.The price of jade in Gambling Stone Center is cheaper than that outside, plus the discount, it is like a [-]% discount. "Thank you, Lao Yang. I want to see Jade Guanyin and Jade Buddha. I wonder if you have them here?"

"Yes, of course." Lao Yang took out a book familiarly. "Look, whichever one you like, I'll get it."

Song Lingzi was speechless, there are so many Jade Buddhas and Jade Guanyin, it can be seen that Lan Siyu's introduction is correct.

"There are a lot of Jade Guanyin and Jade Buddha here. I don't show them to ordinary customers." Lao Yang smiled, "However, Ms. Song is Mr. Lan's friend, and she can be regarded as my Lao Yang's friend. , is to pay attention to a little face."

Song Lingzi understood what Lao Yang meant. Although the quality of jewelry can be identified, the price fluctuations are not determined by those jewelry appraisals. The price difference of [-] to [-] may not be worth much in the eyes of some people, but Song Lingzi is like this , when she was in the province, she would definitely not act like a bully.

When Lan Siyu saw what Lao Yang said, he straightened up and said: "Don't choose for her. She will be dazzled when the next one is selected, so she will come here randomly. If you want to buy it, buy a better one. Is there any ice-type jade? It is best Planted in an old pit."

When Lao Yang heard this, he beamed and said, "Go upstairs to see, go upstairs to see." Lao Yang did not deny it, but indirectly admitted the answer.

Song Lingzi breathed a sigh of relief, it was really convenient to have an acquaintance lead the way.As Lao Yang walked up to the second floor, Song Lingzi whispered to Lan Siyu beside her, "Thank you very much."

"When the purse bleeds heavily, don't blame me." Lan Siyu joked with a smile.

Song Lingzi smiled. "That's what I want too."

Walking up to the second floor, Lao Yang carefully took out some quaint boxes from the house and handed them to Song Lingzi: "These are the only ones left. They are all grown in old pits, and there are not many left in the world."

Song Lingzi also knew the preciousness of the old pit species, and when she looked carefully, she felt that the luster of these jadeites was indeed better than those high-quality jadeites sold in ordinary jewelry stores. "beautiful."

"My mother-in-law also likes these things, so I keep some for my family, and sell the rest." Lao Yang said honestly. "To be honest, in the past few years, the jadeite grown in the old pit has been fried very hard, and it has exceeded its original value."

"Things are rare and precious." Song Lingzi smiled lightly. "Now the jade grown in the old pit is almost extinct, and those who want to get the jade grown in the old pit are like crazy."

Lao Yang nodded, rubbed his hands together and said, "You're right. Let me tell you the truth, these Jade Guanyin and Jade Buddhas, if left in the past, would not be worth much. At that time, the jadeite from the old pit was all a piece of jade. These Jade Guanyin are the scraps left over from the carving at that time."

"Then how much money do you think is suitable?" Song Lingzi saw that there were only five yuan left in the box, so she decided to buy them all. "Don't worry, I still understand the principle of starting the price on the ground and paying back the money when it lands. You open your mouth and say a price. If I think it's suitable, I'll buy it. If it's not suitable, let's discuss it."

"I don't think you are expensive for these five pieces of jade." Lao Yang stretched out five fingers and gestured. "Just 50. It's even cheaper than [-]% off."

Gao Yangyang was dumbfounded when he heard this. 50 is still [-]% off?It's too cheating! "Lingzi, didn't you say to buy one for your husband? Why did you suddenly buy so much?"

In fact, Gao Yangyang's subtext is too expensive, don't buy so much.At this time, Gao Yangyang even wondered if Lan Siyu conspired with others to defraud Song Lingzi of money.

"It's not expensive, the price is fair." Song Lingzi made an estimate. Based on the ice-type jadeite grown in the old pit, the current price is considered to be on the low side. "Do you want a check or a transfer?"

"It's all right." Lao Yang said quickly. "You are Mr. Lan's friend, and they are all rich people. I'm not afraid of your repudiation." Lao Yang saw that Song Lingzi was well-dressed, so he wanted to make friends.In the jewelry industry, making a living and making more friends will surely lead to a better path forward.

Song Lingzi closed the box, signed a check and handed it to Lao Yang, and the transaction was concluded. "Lao Yang, how do you count the wool downstairs?"

Lao Yang was taken aback. "Do you want to play too?"

"It's a game of tickets." It was Song Lingzi's first contact with gambling stones. "I've heard of gambling with stones before. People say that a knife is rich and a knife is linen, and they say that it is difficult for a god to break an inch of jade. I want to try it."

Lao Yang understood that Miss Song in front of her was from a wealthy family, and she was playing stone gambling purely by chance.If you meet it, treat it as a reward, if you don't touch it, treat it as a game, and it won't hurt the root. "It depends on the texture of the wool. Some wools are more expensive, while others are cheaper."

Song Lingzi was puzzled: "They are all made of wool, why are some more expensive and some cheaper?"

"There's a lot of knowledge here." Lan Siyu interrupted. "For example, those with python patterns and pine flowers are more expensive. Also, emeralds are clearly bet and secretly bet. As for the wool of the mouth, you can guess with your own eyesight."

Song Lingzi fully understood that the stone betting was not as simple as she thought. "Then how do you usually choose? What equipment do you use?"

"Most people have such powerful flashlights and magnifying glasses, and sometimes they have to use water." Lan Siyu explained, "However, you, a beginner, can't master these things."

Song Lingzi also knew that all she knew was a fraction of what she knew all of a sudden, and she couldn't compare with professionals.

"There are guests downstairs, I have to go down." Lao Yang hurriedly said, and led Song Lingzi and the others downstairs.Once downstairs, Song Lingzi saw a middle-aged man wearing gold-rimmed glasses looking at wool.

"Mr. He." Lao Yang greeted respectfully. "Please come over here and take a look, these woolen materials are all new."

Song Lingzi immediately understood that this Mr. He must be an expert.She was about to take a few steps closer to observe, but was stopped by Lan Siyu. "Don't look, some people don't like this."

Song Lingzi is a person who has seen the world, and she understood it all at once.So, she turned around and looked at the wool with Gao Yangyang.Song Lingzi pointed to a piece of wool and said, "Look, this piece of wool has a piece of light green, maybe there is emerald in it...".

Mr. He was looking at woolen materials with a magnifying glass. When he heard Song Lingzi's words, he almost fainted and coughed a few times before he recovered.When his condition eased, he couldn't help angering Song Lingzi: "If you don't understand the children, you can go home and study for a few years before you come out and show yourself..."

Lao Yang standing aside was very embarrassed, there were distinguished guests on both sides, and he couldn't afford to offend any of them.

Song Lingzi's blood was surging, but she also knew that she was a layman and couldn't be serious with others, so she and Gao Yangyang lowered their heads to examine the wool again.

Lan Siyu stared at Mr. He, and a cold smile flashed in his eyes, but he was a nouveau riche who started his career from a woman, and he really regarded himself as a character. "Lingzi, when buying wool, you can't buy this kind of green. Usually, this kind of wool is not green, but that kind of, you see, this line has a chance to grow green."

Song Lingzi was stunned, it turns out that there is still this particularity.Rao head, Song Lingzi is in a bit of trouble. "I really don't know how to watch these things."

"It's mainly for fun." Lan Siyu didn't care. "You can choose the wool you like and buy it, it doesn't matter if you gamble up or down."

After hearing Lan Siyu's last words, Mr. He consciously turned his head to look at Lan Siyu. Seeing that Lan Siyu was wearing an expensive suit with a limited-edition gold pen in his pocket, he knew that the man in front of him was no ordinary person. .

Song Lingzi originally wanted Lan Siyu to be an advisor, but later she felt that she was not betting at all if she were to be an advisor to Lan Siyu, so she tried her best to recall the information she checked online.To be honest, Song Lingzi really regretted that she didn't make enough preparations.

After choosing for a long time, Song Lingzi chose three pieces of wool, but Gao Yangyang was empty-handed. "Why don't you choose?"

Gao Yangyang looked embarrassed, "I won't choose. Besides, the price is too expensive, I don't want to buy it."

Song Lingzi raised her forehead when she heard the words, "Come here once from a thousand miles away, even if it's an experiment, it's better than not gambling."

Gao Yangyang pursed his lips, and finally, he picked out three pieces of wool that were pleasing to the eye from the many wools.

If you come, you will return.Lan Siyu also chose a few pieces of wool, one of which was huge in size, Song Lingzi saw it, and was dumbfounded: "Are you going to buy it back?"

"Try your luck." Lan Siyu raised his eyebrows.

After buying the raw materials and paying the money, she was about to unravel the stones. Song Lingzi was eager to try it, and was the first to participate in the unraveling. "Miss, are you going to wipe or cut?"

Song Lingzi looked at Lan Siyu as if asking for help, Lan Siyu said in a low voice: "The risk of rubbing stones is relatively low, you can try it."

"Wipe the stone." Song Lingzi said awkwardly.At this time, some people nearby saw someone dissecting stones like this, and they gathered around one after another.

The worker wiped a small piece of Song Lingzi, and asked, "Continue?"

Lan Siyu and Lao Yang glanced at each other. "How about one size fits all?"

Song Lingzi was very disappointed, but she still listened to her advice and chose to make a one-size-fits-all decision.As a result, when the knife was cut, only the shining white stone was seen, without a trace of green.

Song Lingzi didn't believe in evil, put all the woolen stuff in her hand on it, pointed to the woolen stuff and said: "Cut, cut all."

Lan Siyu shook his head, Song Lingzi must be out of breath.

The green that Song Lingzi expected didn't appear after all the cuts.Song Lingzi was very frustrated. It turned out that her luck was still so bad that even Shitou bullied her.

The next person who will explain the stone is Lan Siyu. Lan Siyu had no intention of selling it, so he said directly: "Cut."

When you cut it with a knife, you can see a piece of green in the stone.Someone in the crowd exclaimed: "It's green, it's green."

As soon as the sound came out, more people gathered around to watch.Song Lingzi saw the stone turn green for the first time, her eyes were full of curiosity.

Lan Siyu asked the workers to continue cutting. When the jadeite showed its embryonic form, a look of disappointment flashed in his eyes. He thought that the texture of this jadeite would be ice, but he didn't expect it to be water.

Lan Siyu put down this piece of emerald, and continued to ask to cut the next two pieces. The next two pieces were bean green seed and hibiscus seed.There was a hint of disappointment in Lan Siyu's eyes.He was not satisfied with the result of this stone betting.

When it was Gao Yangyang's turn, she looked at Song Lingzi very worriedly. "If there is no emerald, will our money be wasted?"

"If there is no green, we will lose." Song Lingzi nodded, "However, you have half the chance to become rich."

Encouraged by Song Lingzi, Gao Yangyang took a few deep breaths, and then put the wool on the table. "Cut. I want to cut."

After cutting it with a single knife, there was no green. Gao Yangyang felt sorry for the money, but knew that he was in danger at this time, so he could only continue to cut it patiently.

After cutting more than half, Gao Yangyang chose to give up without seeing a trace of green. "Forget it, just treat it as a loss."

Song Lingzi saw that there was still room to cut the wool, so she ordered the workers to cut it again.As a result, a palm-sized emerald appeared under Song Lingzi's eyes.Song Lingzi never expected Gao Yangyang to be so lucky, and cheered loudly: "It's green, it's really green."

Gao Yangyang jumped up and high-fived Song Lingzi. "It's great." Song Lingzi was really happy for Gao Yangyang.

Taking advantage of the two people's complacency, Lan Siyu reminded: "Hurry up and get rid of the last two pieces."

Gao Yangyang also had the same idea, so he ordered the workers to cut it, but an old man suddenly asked, "Miss, do you want to sell jadeite? If so, I can buy it here."

Gao Yangyang glanced at him and found Mr. He standing behind the old man, so he understood who wanted to buy these emeralds. "Not for sale, these jadeites have owners."

"It's green, it's still high green!" Someone in the crowd cheered, and others followed suit.

Gao Yangyang couldn't believe his ears. Not only did he turn green, but he was also green. The chance of this is really one in a million.Just let her meet her, it's a burst of character.

When Gao Yangyang took the ice jade, he felt the jealous eyes of the surroundings falling on her.Gao Yangyang found out for the first time that it was uncomfortable to be stared at, and he wished he could burrow into the ground and hide.

Gao Yangyang ordered the workers to continue cutting the last piece, and began to think about how to properly dispose of these jadeites.
