"That's right!" Zhao Lei slapped his thigh: "Xiao Liu is smart. Every inch of gold weighs one pound. Even placer gold is heavier than a stone. However, the volume of a stone has not changed but its weight has increased. Yes, naturally there will be lies.”
Zhao Lei immediately directed several young men to weigh each piece, lift it up again and again, measure it again and again, and drain it again and again. The boring repetition did not make any discovery.
Everyone was tired and disappointed. Even Zhao Lei and Xue Xiaoyu, who were full of confidence in Ye Qing, began to be suspicious.
Ye Qing kept smiling and said nothing. To him, these things were nothing.
It would be boring to choose a gambling rough stone from hundreds or thousands of stones!
A master of stone gambling must be patient. Stones do not lie, but impatience can make one's judgment wrong.
After more than a dozen stones, a thick, square stone was lifted from the bucket, and the water surface suddenly changed.
"Five inches less!" The young man responsible for measuring the height of the remaining water in the bucket shouted excitedly.
"Hang up, Wang Liang is ready to cut the stones!" Ye Qing ordered.
Regardless of the fact that the stone had just been fished out of the water, everyone worked together to lift the suspicious stone to the stone cutting machine. Wang Liang pressed the button and cut directly.
Everyone looked nervously, except Ye Qing, who was eyeing the small stones.
They come in all sizes, the largest is like a big pebble, as big as a fist, and the smallest is the size of a walnut, only a few dozen grams.
When he asked for help in weighing the stones of equal weight just now, he had already picked out some small ones and put them aside.
Xue Xiaoyu thought he thought they were too small to be used, so he just piled them together, about a dozen yuan.
The sound of slapping was endless, and everyone watched Wang Liang cutting the stone intently.
"What are these small stones for, and why are they still packed in the box?" Ye Qing and Xue Xiaoyu leaned very close and asked as if nothing had happened.
Xue Xiaoyu chuckled and said: "What else can the stone do? I put it in a box for fear of scattering and making it difficult to clean up!"
"How many!"
"Just this box, it was probably collected by the warehouse manager here. Later, we rented this place and didn't move it out because it was too troublesome!" Xue Xiaoyu looked at him strangely: "Why are you asking this?"
Ye Qing laughed twice: "These pebbles are colorful and beautiful. They would be great as pebbles in a fish tank!"
Xue Xiaoyu said disapprovingly: "Then just pick a few pieces!"
Ye Qing immediately felt relieved and smiled without saying a word.
Wang Liang had no scruples at all when cutting this kind of stone, so he was very fast.
With a "click" sound, the stone was split into two on the stone cutting machine frame, and pieces of bright yellow gold bars appeared in front of everyone's eyes.
"It really does!" Zhao Lei didn't wait for the blade of the stone cutter to stop rotating, picked up a piece, put it in his mouth and bit it, and was stunned.
In fact, everyone was stunned when they saw a small square dug out inside the cut stone with more than a dozen gold bars inside. This smuggling method was simply unbelievable.
"Start work overnight and open the big warehouse!" Zhao Lei was excited and anxious at the same time. Facts have proved that Ye Qing's guess was correct. The alluvial gold flowed out of the warehouse. Finding a smuggling method was also a great achievement.
Ye Qing stepped forward with a smile: "I found the thing anyway, take your time, don't be anxious."
Zhao Lei suddenly came to his senses: "The most urgent task is to increase efforts to retrieve stones from the river."
Ye Qing smiled mischievously: "The unfinished stones will continue to be auctioned, and the good ones will be kept. Only by gathering together can the merits and demerits be offset!"
Zhao Lei understood and hugged him: "Thank you, brother."
"If you call me brother, there is no need to say thank you!" Ye Qing smiled and pushed him away: "How elegant is it for two grown men to hug each other!"
Zhao Lei laughed and let go: "No wonder the old man likes you, your cleverness makes even my brother convinced!"
Ye Qing laughed: "My business is done, it's time to say goodbye."
"Okay, let Xiaoyu give it to you, and I'll keep an eye on it from here!" Zhao Lei had a certain attitude of not stopping until he finished cutting the stones in these warehouses.
Ye Qing looked back at Xue Xiaoyu and reminded: "Get some pebbles!"
Xue Xiaoyu quickly found a plastic bag, put it in it, and raised her head and asked him: "Just these few pieces!"
"My fish tank is small, a few yuan is enough!" Ye Qing smiled and nodded.
After Xue Xiaoyu finished loading the small ones, she kindly helped him pack a few larger ones. She stood up and walked side by side with him, with a happy look on her face: "I'll go find you tomorrow and find a position for you!"
Ye Qing took the plastic bag in her hand and said with a evil smile: "Both four and five are fine, pick whichever one you like!" Before she could react, he got in the car and left.
Xue Xiaoyu was stunned for a moment, then woke up and stamped his feet with energy, and cursed shyly: "I just started talking nonsense again when I got serious."
Zhao Lei walked quietly behind her and said leisurely: "Do you know why the old man of the Ye family must keep him by your side!"
"Ye family, that Ye family!" Xue Xiaoyu said in surprise.
"There is only one Ye family in Kyoto!" Zhao Lei rolled his eyes at her: "The emotional intelligence is worrying!"
"What does this have to do with my emotional intelligence?" Xue Xiaoyuhu asked: "Why did the old man of the Ye family want to keep him? It is said that his family background has a bright future, whether he is an official career or a soldier."
"Ye Wuliang said that the old man was watching him personally because he was too smart. He was worried that he would be misled by his cleverness and go astray, so he personally watched him." Zhao Lei said with a smile: "In the past few years, his character has been tempered and stable, and he was Release it."
"He's the only one who's still stable!" Xue Xiaoyu said in disbelief.
"Silly girl, you better think about what he defrauded you of!" Zhao Lei slapped his forehead, his emotional intelligence was really worrying!
"What can he lie to me about?"
"This place is 3,800 kilometers away from Kyoto by plane. Is it necessary for him to take a few stones home from here and put them in the fish tank? The sixth son of the Ye family is a master of stone gambling, and the stone he likes... ..!" The corner of Zhao Lei's mouth twitched: "I built the plank road openly and secretly to Chencang. I was just joking to divert your attention, so as not to stop giving it to him when you figure it out."
Xue Xiaoyu was dumbfounded and stammered: "That's also a raw jade stone!"
"This turns out to be a rough stone warehouse! Forget it, just pretend it's nothing like that." Zhao Lei shook his head and smiled bitterly, then turned around and left: "This emotional intelligence... ugh!"
Xue Xiaoyu looked at the black sky speechlessly. The stars in the sky seemed to be laughing at her. She gritted her teeth and stamped her feet angrily: "This kid is just a smiling wolf."
The Land Rover drove for a full kilometer before Ye Qing turned on the cabin lights and used the lights to place the stones on the back seat. After looking carefully for a few times, he called to stop.
Wang Liang stepped on the brake, and Ye Qing jumped out of the car holding the two big stones that Xue Xiaoyu had kindly put on them, and placed them neatly in the center of the flower pond. Then he got in the car with a smile and put the remaining stones back into plastic bags.
