Chapter 119: Stone Gambling

When Jiang Zhen saw Tan Ming’s calm expression, she asked again, “Why don’t I bring you to the various shops?”

...

Tan Ming had never seen the area before. Since she was just about to walk around, Jiang Zhen’s suggestion suited her very well. “Sure, let’s walk around. I also want to understand more.”

The two of them spend 3 hours looking around.

After one round, Tan Ming somewhat understood why Jiang Zhen could become the person-in-charge here at such a young age.

Although Jiang Zhen did not come to such a medium-sized market often, he knew the situation of every shop inside like the back of his hand. Furthermore, Tan Ming realized that these people could not help but look at Jiang Zhen with reverence.

Tan Ming looked at the various stone gambling stalls on the street and asked curiously, “Are you good at stone gambling?”

Jiang Zhen turned to look at Tan Ming. “I’m alright.”

Tan Ming sized up Jiang Zhen and teased, “I feel that with Brother Jiang Zhen’s low-key personality, he should be very good.”

The corners of Jiang Zhen’s mouth twitched, and a smile appeared on his face. “Then you’re quite confident in me. Let’s go. I’ll take you to see the last shop.”

Tan Ming followed Jiang Zhen into a shop. There was a jade cutting machine placed slightly against the wall on the right-hand side of the door. About a hundred raw stones of various sizes were placed near half of the shop area outside. Two customers were holding flashlights and shining them on the raw stones while communicating.

Further in was the counter for finished jade jewelry. Beside the counter was a tea table for guests.

The innermost area was separated by glass. One could only see three workstations for workers to carve and process stones. The three of them worked at the same time. Looking at the workspace from the outside, they could clearly sense the dust flying inside. The glass only isolated the dust. The sound of machines carving and polishing jade could still be heard clearly from outside.

The shopkeeper was a middle-aged man in his fifties. When he saw Jiang Zhen, he quickly stood up and bowed slightly. “Mr. Jiang.”

Jiang Zhen nodded slightly. “Boss Yu, do what you have to do. I’m a little free today, so I’m going around.”

Jiang Hai had already told Jiang Zhen in advance not to expose Tan Ming’s current identity. Hence, he had used this excuse along the way.

Seeing this, Boss Yu returned to his seat behind the tea table and secretly sized up Tan Ming from the corner of his eye. This was the first time Mr. Jiang had brought someone of the opposite sex here. He was really curious!

Tan Ming walked around and saw Jiang Zhen holding a palm-sized raw stone. With his other hand, he held a flashlight and shone it on the surface of the raw stone. Hence, she leaned over curiously. Her eyes followed the flashlight in Jiang Zhen’s hand for a long time, but she did not understand anything.

Tan Ming looked at the customers not far away and covered her mouth with her hand as she approached Jiang Zhen. She asked in a soft voice, “Is this material good?”

Jiang Zhen felt the fragrance of jasmine lingering at the tip of his nose. When he lowered his head, he only saw a round head. He did not tell her that in this line of work, there were many people who made wrong judgments, especially this raw stone with a bad surface. No one would come over to snatch it just because others said that this raw stone was good.

Most people trusted their own judgment. Only when they were hesitating would these words have any effect.

Jiang Zhen put down the raw stone and imitated Tan Ming. He lowered his head and whispered into Tan Ming’s ear, “I think so.”

After following Jiang Zhen for so long, Tan Ming knew that there was no such thing as 100% certainty in stone gambling. After all, even machines could not detect it. It was all based on these veterans’ experience and senses.

Tan Ming looked at the price of the raw stone and realized that it was placed in the area of 100,000 to 200,000 yuan priced stones. She covered her mouth and asked, “How confident are you?”

Jiang Zhen looked at Tan Ming’s curious child-like expression and satisfied her curiosity. “80%. CEO Jiang told me in advance to bring you good material, so you don’t have to worry about choosing a material. This material is too risky and not suitable for newbies.”

”Yo, enemies are bound to meet on a narrow road. If you want to hook up with someone, get a divorce first. Or do you want to two-time?”

Tan Ming rolled her eyes when she heard the voice. She didn’t need to turn her head to know who it was. It was indeed a narrow road for enemies.

Jiang Zhen frowned slightly and turned to look in the direction of the voice. He saw a woman about the same height as An’an. She was wearing a fisherman’s hat and sunglasses that covered most of her face.

Tan Ming turned around and looked at Tan Si, who was dressed up in a youthful and beautiful outfit. She snorted coldly. “These days, mistresses are really arrogant. Do you want me to help you take off your sunglasses and let everyone see if your looks as a mistress have reached the desired standard..”
