The strongest urban comprehension
Chapter 9 Mantolu Market
Although he did not buy any magical artifacts during this trip to Myanmar, Jiang Tianming did not regret it. Instead, he was more grateful. The efficacy of magical artifacts was mostly passed down from person to person, and such evil things as this time were simply unheard of.
But when the old man turned 100, he still had nothing to offer. Jiang Tianming was worried that his family would be at a disadvantage. You must know that the Jiang family is such a large family, and he is not the only one of them. Infighting and secret fighting are common, although now
Jiang Tianming has begun to take over the family affairs, and it is also because of the efforts of his father's generation. If he does not excel, he will be banned one day. None of his cousins can save money.
Since he didn't buy the magic weapon, he couldn't really return empty-handed. Jiang Tianming then thought about it, why not go to the jade place for a walk. As the saying goes, it takes three years for a person to raise jade, and jade will keep a person for a lifetime. What kind of thing does the old man have in his life?
I’ve seen it, instead of spending money, it’s better to use your heart.
Mantauru Market is the largest jade market in Myanmar, covering an area of hundreds of acres. It is located near Naypyitaw. It is home to the best jade in the world and is also the world's largest stone gambling resort.
People who come here can buy ready-made jade, or they can buy jade and cut it on site. Nothing is impossible here, there are people who get rich overnight, and there are people who lose everything.
In the early morning, after a night of practice, Zhou Yang returned to normal and looked energetic. A group of people took a rented car to the Mantaulu Jade Market. Ji Guangsheng drove the car, and Master Wei was arranged by Jiang Tianming to go first.
He was sent back to China and given a certain reward. Before leaving, Master Wei lost all pride and said goodbye to Zhou Yang emphatically.
"Brother Zhou, are you carrying this sword like this?" Zhou Yang's appearance is really weird. A modern man dressed up actually carries a sword on his back.
Zhou Yang looked at Guo Shan helplessly, "I don't want to do this either. You saw what happened yesterday. What if someone is casually discarded and hurts someone? I can only take it back home and deal with it slowly. I hope one day I can erase the violence in the sword."
Angry." Zhou Yang was really embarrassed to say that Jiulong had recognized himself as the master and would no longer take the initiative to harm others. Zhou Yang communicated with Aguai for a long time last night, and a whole new aspect of knowledge opened up in Zhou Yang's mind.
The Nine Dragon Sword no longer belongs to the category of ordinary magic weapons, but is a real magic weapon. Magic weapons in the world of cultivation are also divided into many levels. From low to high, they are mortal weapons, treasure weapons, spiritual weapons, fairy weapons, divine weapons, and sacred weapons.
, each level is divided into top grade, middle grade, and low grade.
Mortal weapons are the magical weapons mentioned here, and they have very little effect.
According to Aguai's induction, the Nine Dragon Sword already belongs to the ranks of middle-grade treasures, and with Zhou Yang's current cultivation level, he can already make some simple mortal weapons, which are what people call magic weapons. However, Zhou Yang has always
I am obsessed with cultivation and have never tried it.
Before entering the market, I heard different voices coming from inside.
"It's green, it's green, it's going up, it's going up!"
"Hey, it collapsed again. What a bloody bad luck."
The market was bustling with people, and at a glance, there were almost ten thousand people inside.
"This Mantauru market is the largest jade market in Myanmar. Foreign tourists or jade merchants come here all year round to pan for gold and purchase. It is said that nearly one-third of Myanmar's tax revenue comes from jade." Jiang Tianming walked to his side.
Zhou Yang explained that after what happened yesterday, Jiang Tianming's attitude towards Zhou Yang was obviously very respectful. Counting the first time he met a robber, this was the second time Zhou Yang had done him a big favor.
"Look, there is a place dedicated to stone gambling. A large part of the reason why the Mantauru market is so popular is because of the stone gambling. It can be said that the profits created by stone gambling far exceed the original jade trading." Jiang Tianming followed suit.
Point to the right side of the market where the crowds are.
"Brother Jiang, can you really make money by gambling on stones?" After living in embarrassment for so many years, Zhou Yang was still more interested when it came to making money.
"Haha, Brother Zhou, remember one thing, small gambling is fun, big gambling is harmful to the body, and you can only win if you don't gamble. Of course, everyone who comes to gamble on stones has the mentality of making money, but if everyone can make money by gambling on stones,
Then businesses will not be able to survive. According to statistics from the grapevine, the probability of actually winning money by betting on stones is no more than 20%."
"Then why are there so many people gambling?" Zhou Yang was a little confused. Since everyone knows that the success rate of gambling on stones is not high, why are there still people who enjoy it?
"You don't understand this, Brother Zhou. What's really attractive are the legends about getting rich overnight by gambling on stones. Five or six years ago, there was a mysterious figure who won one billion jade stones with a capital of 100,000.
, but this kind of thing is more difficult than buying a lottery ticket. Under normal circumstances, it is rare to win millions by betting on stones, but there are always people who think that they are the next rich man. This is human nature." Jiang Tianming patiently told Zhou
Yang explained that before he knew it, several people had arrived at the Stone Gambling Hall.
"It's okay to come here for fun, but there's no need to risk your wealth. Let's stay here for a day, hoping to find a suitable gift. Brother Zhou, why don't you buy one or two for fun?" Jiang Tianming looked at Zhou with a smile.
Positive.
Zhou Yang was really interested when he heard that gambling on stones can make money, but after Jiang Tianming explained it, he immediately backed down. He thought that gambling on stones was simply incompatible with money. Zhou Yang had experienced so many years of loneliness.
, I have long developed the habit of not doing anything when I am unsure, and I never place my hope on luck.
"No, Brother Jiang, after listening to what you said, I think it's better to forget it. No one has trouble with money, right?" Zhou Yang smiled and shook his head. He was very satisfied with being able to earn one million from this trip, not to mention the money.
Obtaining the Nine Dragon Sword is something that cannot be measured with money.
"Oh, brother, what you said is wrong. As the saying goes, you may not lose if you bet. If you don't give it a try, how will you know that you won't succeed? If you succeed, wouldn't you be working decades better than others?
We have to come faster!" At this time, a man suddenly squeezed in beside Zhou Yang and his group, speaking in Chinese, holding a small stone in his hand, and looking at Zhou Yang with an unhappy expression.
"Look, this is the third stone I bought. The previous two stones have already yielded jade. Who said it was because of money? I have already made more than 100,000 yuan for the two stones, and I only spent less than 10,000 yuan to buy them back.
, you don’t believe it? If you don’t believe it, I’ll take you to see it.” As he said that, the man wanted to take Zhou Yang’s arm.
Zhou Yang looked at the visitor with a frown. Although he had just entered society, he had not let up his sense of vigilance developed over the years. What the other party said seemed to be very enthusiastic, but he always felt that something was wrong.
At this time, Guo Shan stood in front of Zhou Yang and glared at the man, "Go away, it's not our first time here." With just a simple sentence, the man walked away and disappeared into the crowd in the blink of an eye.
"Brother Zhou, don't be offended. This person is a shill. He will keep an eye on some newbies and then get commissions from them. They are actually locals. A large part of them here are Chinese, so these people are proficient in Chinese, which is more convenient.
Getting close to others." After Guo Shan explained, Zhou Yang suddenly realized, and he shook his head helplessly, it seemed that he was indeed too young.
"Haha, let's go and have a look in front. I still remember that I came here to play once a few years ago. I lost a million at that time. Let's see if I can make it back today." Jiang Tianming did not let the episode just affect his mood.
Zhou Yang was surprised after hearing this. Just now you said that small gambling is good for you, but big gambling is harmful to your health. You have lost a million and still want to play. The world of rich people is really incomprehensible, but the money belongs to other people, and it belongs to two people.
The friendship is not good enough to stop others from spending money. You only need to take care of their safety.
At this time, it was already past ten o'clock in the morning. More and more people came to the market, and it gradually became crowded. Zhou Yang and his party were not in a hurry to take action, and kept changing stalls to look at it. It must be said that this
The Mantauru Market is so big that a few people walked around for almost an hour and still didn't even finish a third of it.
Suddenly, there was a noise in front, and many people were attracted by the sound.
"Come on, let's go take a look too." Jiang Tianming looked in front of him curiously, and everyone walked past along with the flow of people.
With Zhou Yang by his side, there was no need to worry about crowding. Many people didn't know why they were suddenly squeezed past when they were standing in front. After several rounds of crowding, Zhou Yang led Jiang Tianming and others to the front of the crowd.
"Open! Go green! Go green! Go green!" Zhou Yang looked at the shouter with his mouth wide open. If he was just an ordinary person, maybe Zhou Yang wouldn't be surprised.
I saw a young girl, about 20 years old by visual inspection, with one foot on the stone pier, hands on her hips, and her eyes fixed on the stone being polished by the old master. She was dressed in an indescribably strange way, wearing a white silk outfit and long hair.
Her hair, which reached her waist, seemed out of place with the surrounding environment, but it happened that she was yelling loudly, and her whole face was suppressed to be red, almost covering her original appearance.
"This girl is amazing. She just opened two jade stones in a row and the price rose sharply."
"I also heard from them that they only spent a few thousand yuan, and the jade they opened was instantly purchased by merchants for millions of dollars."
"Hey, it's so annoying to compare people to each other. I've already opened hundreds of thousands of dollars, but I haven't even gotten a piece of jade."
There were noisy discussions all around.
There are many concerns when polishing jade. Generally, it cannot be cut at will. No one can be sure where the jade is. If it is damaged, the value may plummet, but some master craftsmen can see the approximate location.
The master in front of me looked like he was an expert at first sight. He started without hesitation, drew a line, and cut it directly. The sound of friction came from the place, as if he was not cutting jade material, but rubbing people's hearts.
Although I didn't buy it myself, the hearts of the onlookers were still closely held.
"Go green! Go green! Go green!" In addition to the girl herself, there were several people shouting behind her.
"Crack." With the sound, a quarter of the jade material was cut off, and a piece of green meat with a diameter of two or three centimeters appeared in the center of the smooth cutting surface, shining with moving light under the light.
The place suddenly became quiet, and everyone around them stared at the jade material in the master's hands with wide eyes. Without even taking a breath, the roar started again.
"Wow, I won again, hahahaha." The girl looked up to the sky and laughed without caring about her image.
"Congratulations, little girl, for getting another piece of high-quality jade. Do you think you will sell this semi-finished product, or polish it all and sell it again?" Although the master congratulated him, his heart was bleeding. This is the third piece.
All of them came from my own firm, but others bought them for thousands of dollars. I also spent huge sums of money to purchase them. Of course, it was impossible to lose money. After the jade materials were mined, I spent hundreds of dollars to buy them back. But
Compared with girls, no one can stand it.
"The old rule is, polish everything before discussing the deal." The girl seemed to be very experienced. She touched her nose with her finger. Zhou Yang looked on and wanted to laugh. He was not paying attention to his image.
Jiang Tianming couldn't help but rub his hands at the side, leaving the big family style behind.
No one was willing to leave, and they were all quietly watching the master polish it. Within twenty minutes, the entire piece of jade was polished and rinsed with water. A piece of jade the size of a tennis ball was lying in the hands of the master, crystal clear and beautiful.
Not a trace of color.
"High-quality jade, little girl, we are willing to pay 450,000 yuan for this piece of jade. What do you think?" The old master's bid is quite fair and he does not bully the young man. The main thing is that everyone is watching and there is no way to talk nonsense.
.
At this time, there were almost a thousand people watching, some were envious, some were jealous, and some who were desperate to lose wished they could have slapped themselves in the face because they were not as lucky as this girl.
"Okay, no problem, haha, it's so cool." The girl was very happy. According to this, plus the previous two yuan, she has made more than one million.
