Ever since Niu Sanpang was tricked once, Li Mo spent a lot of time studying raw jade stones. It's just that there is no trading market in Kyoto, because nine out of ten rough jade stones are cut, and the cost is very high. Therefore, there are several trading markets of different sizes only close to the origin of jade rough stones.
Li Mo was surprised that there was a small market here in the magic city. After seeing the rough stones displayed on the booth, he was still a little shocked. There must be thousands of them. The small rough stones are about the size of an adult's fist, and the big ones weigh forty or fifty kilograms. The colors on the surface of the stones are different, and they are probably not from the same mining area.
Today he is here to practice.
As the market opened, there were more and more people, mostly in groups. It is estimated that those who wanted to participate in stone gambling were afraid of failure, so they let others share some of the losses.
Of course, there are also many who come here just to watch the fun. As the saying goes, one sword cuts heaven and one sword hell. The scene is more thrilling than watching a science fiction movie.
"Young man, just give in and just stand aside and watch the fun."
An old man reached out to push him away, then took a vantage point, took out a high-gloss yellow light from his bag, bent down and pointed it at a head-sized stone in front of him.
You can see him doing this everywhere.
Each stone has a number and price on it. If you select it, you can trade it directly. If it feels unreliable, let someone else do it.
"My uncle has such a good heart."
Li Mo shook his head and prepared to change places. He looked around and saw that it was crowded.
But where have the popular Huang Lao and the others gone?
"The quality of the rough stones displayed outside is average, and nine out of ten bets will result in a loss. However, the entrance fee inside is very high. The entrance fee of 30,000 yuan per person stops 99% of the people."
"Yes, Mr. Huang's starting fee for each appearance is at least 200,000 yuan. If the bet increases significantly, he will receive additional bonuses."
"The people who can hire Mr. Huang are basically rich, and they still care about getting a little money."
Someone was talking about Mr. Huang. Li Mo stood aside and listened for a while before walking inside. Sure enough, there was an iron gate at the end, and there were two strong men standing guard at the door.
"I want to go in."
Li Mo directly took out his black gold card. The security guard looked at his overly young face and thought that another rich second generation must be here to play. It's good for rich people to come out to play such an exciting stone gambling game at such a young age.

The area of the infield is about 300 square meters, and it is placed in a circle around the wall. The raw stones here are completely different. Basically, you can see part of it with the skylight open. Experienced veterans can judge its pit species based on the window opening position and the appearance of the original stone, and determine the quality and approximate content of its jadeite flesh stone.
There are more than ten people who have already looked at the rough stones inside, most of them are over forty years old, and only one is as tender-faced as Li Mo. There are few people here, the space is empty, and it is very quiet, which is suitable for Li Mo to study carefully by himself.
He walked towards the corner of the wall, where there were several rough stones half as tall as a man. I took out a spotlight flashlight from my bag and shined it at the open window. The light transmittance was less than the depth of two knuckles, and I could clearly see the thick crystals in the flesh stone. There is greenery, but it is not pure enough and dark.
From the texture point of view, it is a bit like oil-green jade, and this quality belongs to low-to-medium grade. Don't think it's mid- to low-end, in fact, this group of consumers is the mainstream.
This rough jadeite stone weighs 243 kilograms and has a price tag of 1.38 million. Li Mo didn't know much about the jade market, so he didn't know whether the price was too high or too low.
After he made his preliminary judgment, he looked with his strange eyes, and his sight penetrated easily, and then a wonderful look appeared on his face. No wonder heaven and hell are so close at hand. In this rough jade stone of four to five hundred kilograms, the real jadeite is only near the window opening, and the rest are all stones.
Whoever buys loses.
Li Mo stood up and selected the rough jade stone again. This rough stone was about the size of a basketball. It was once oval in shape and the skin was blue in color. It should have come from an old pit. The jadeite exposed at the window opening looked waxy and turbid like boiled rice cereal when illuminated with a high-concentration flashlight.
"Glutinous rice grows jade."
This kind of jade is relatively more expensive than the bean green jade. In fact, there are two types of waxy jade. One is waxy ice, which has a semi-opaque texture, like ice cubes with impurities. In many cases, some merchants will also regard waxy ice jade as ice jade. The quality is different, but the value is directly doubled.
Li Mo Yitong looked at it again. This rough jadeite the size of a basketball is good. If you polish it along the stone skin for about two centimeters, you can see the jadeite. The amount of jadeite produced is very high.
Look at the price tag, which is only 86,000.
Li Mo touched his chin, how about buying it and trying the market?
Thinking of this, he stretched out his hand and picked up the rough jade stone. It was heavier than the crow skin field yellow rough stone he had found before. It weighed about thirty kilograms anyway. By estimation, the jadeite should weigh about twenty-five kilograms.
"Hello sir, have you chosen this rough jade stone?"
A man in his thirties came over and asked.
"kindness."
The staff member hurriedly said: "Sir, please wait a moment." He pushed a cart over, and Li Mo put the selected jadeite stone on it.
He continued to look at other rough stones, and the man followed him with a cart.
Next, he selected three more rough jade stones. The largest one weighed more than 80 kilograms. They were also glutinous rice jade, and they were all high-content rough stones.
As for the one that weighed 200 to 300 kilograms, he gave it up immediately after identifying it. The staff member following behind had a smile on his face. He was dedicated to serving Li Mo. No matter whether the four jadeite rough stones rose or fell, he could get a good commission. If the bet goes up, he will receive a nice red envelope as usual.
Li Mo came to the last rough stone, which was the size of a washbasin. The stone's skin was once light yellow, and there were weathered and granular sandstones on the surface. When he was about to squat down and take a closer look, another man in his thirties stepped in front of him.
"Mr. Jiang, please."
Li Mo frowned slightly. That Mr. Jiang was so impressive. He chose a rough jade stone and let his bodyguards clear the way. Mr. Jiang was about forty years old and slightly fat. He knelt down and took out a spotlight flashlight to take a look.
"The jadeite exposed here is of good quality, almost reaching the level of waxy ice."
At this time, another man came over. He glanced at it and couldn't help but smile and said: "Mr. Jiang, this jadeite stone is priced at 1.08 million. As long as you can get 50% of the jadeite, you can make a profit without losing money."
Mr. Jiang stood up and looked back at the person who was speaking. He snorted and said, "Mr. Yun is quite elegant today. Do you want to try your luck today?"
"If you don't dare to bet, Mr. Jiang, how about I take over and give it a try?"
When these two people opened their mouths, they smelled like gunpowder.
Li Mo looked through the gap and saw that the jadeite from the original stone was not even 10%, which was simply deceiving. No matter who of the two gambles, he will cry sometimes.
"let's go."
Li Mo was about to drag these rough stones over to settle the bill, but before he turned around, he heard Mr. Yun say again: "Mr. Jiang, you are also the boss of a jewelry company, and your courage is not as good as that of a young man. You Look, they have selected four rough stones, with a total value of at least 1.5 million."
Mr. Jiang glanced at Li Mo and said with a disdainful sneer: "He's just a rich second generation, what can he know? It's his father's money that's the loser anyway."
If you two have any grudges, just settle them yourself. Why am I, a passerby, in your way? Why am I pointing the finger at myself?
Li Mo was very unhappy and looked at Fatty Jiang with a frown, which was a warning.
"Boy, why are you staring?"
Fatty Jiang seemed to be stimulated, and actually pointed at Li Mo and said in a deep voice: "Since you are young, I don't have the same experience as you, so I apologize and get out."
"Hey, Mr. Jiang, why are you so quarrelsome with a young man? Just calm down and don't get along with him."
Mr. Yun seemed to be trying to persuade him, but the underlying meaning behind his words was that he was mocking him for being petty and small-minded.
You are not a good person either.
Li Mo turned around and glared at Mr. Yun.
