Chapter 155 Tiancheng Gambling Stone Field
"amulet?"
Huo Lingchuan was stunned and looked at Huo Qinghuang.
"That's right. As long as you don't take off the amulet, nothing bad will happen to you."
Huo Qinghuang said calmly.
Huo Lingchuan: “…”
Why do you find this so unpleasant to hear?
Does he look like the kind of person who likes to commit suicide?
Huo Lingjun stroked the amulet in his hand and said without raising his head, "We do have several jade companies under our umbrella. If you want it, I can have someone deliver it to you."
After saying that, he thought for a moment and added, "But high-quality ice jade is rare. If you need a large quantity, I'm afraid you'll have to try your luck at the gambling stone field."
"A gambling stone field? Where is it?"
Huo Qinghuang frowned.
Is even high-ice jade so rare in this world?
I should have lowered the grade earlier.
But the words have already been said, and changing them would not be Huo Qinghuang's style.
"There is one in the suburbs of the imperial capital. If you want to go, ask..."
As Huo Lingjun spoke, he looked at Huo Lingfeng and Huo Lingchuan.
"Although I really want to go, I have to join the crew tomorrow and I really can't spare the time."
Huo Lingchuan said with a look of regret.
He really wanted to go out and play with Huo Qinghuang, which was much more interesting than filming a movie.
It’s a pity that the contract had already been signed. If he wanted to go back on his word, he would have to pay a huge penalty, so Huo Lingchuan refused to do that.
"I'll go. It happens that I have a day off tomorrow, so I can just relax."
Huo Lingfeng pushed his glasses and said with a smile.
Huo Yuchen's eyes lit up: "Aunt, I want to go too! I haven't been to the gambling stone field yet."
Huo Baoer also echoed: "I want to go too, I want to go too."
Huo Qinghuang looked at the two little guys' expectant eyes and said coldly, "You are not allowed to go!"
Mrs. Huo also said, "It's a mixed bag there, it's not very safe, you should be obedient and let Aunt Liu make you some delicious food at home, okay?"
"not good!"
Huo Yuchen pouted and shook his head vigorously.
Huo Lingjun said, "Let them go. It's a good opportunity for them to see what it's like."
Huo Qinghuang glanced at him and said, "Since you promised, you will be responsible for keeping an eye on them."
Huo Lingfeng nodded speechlessly.
"Then the second brother will go with you. All the money you need will be put into the company account."
Huo Lingjun nodded, finalizing the decision.
The next morning, Huo Qinghuang and Huo Lingfeng, along with Huo Yuchen and Huo Baoer, were escorted by Liu Da to the largest gambling stone field in the imperial capital - Tiancheng Gambling Stone Shop.
As soon as you enter the door, you are hit by noisy sounds. People are coming and going in the gambling stone field, and all kinds of raw stones are displayed.
"Aunt, are there really jades in these stones?"
Huo Yuchen asked curiously.
Huo Qinghuang stared at the piles of raw stones and did not answer.
Huo Lingfeng smiled and explained: "Some of these rough stones have jade inside, and some do not. It all depends on luck and vision."
"Is that so? If I buy the wrong one, won't I lose money?"
Huo Yuchen said thoughtfully.
"That's right, so you can have fun, but don't get too involved, or you'll lose everything."
Huo Lingfeng took the opportunity to educate him.
"I see."
Huo Yuchen said obediently.
"Dad, can I pick a rock?"
At this time, Huo Baoer pulled Huo Lingfeng's sleeve and asked timidly.
She was recognized under the name of Huo Lingfeng, but Huo Lingfeng often went out early and came back late, so the two of them actually did not have much time to interact with each other, so they were still a little unfamiliar.
"Sure, Bao Er, just tell Daddy what you want."
Huo Lingfeng looked at her gently and said with a smile.
Huo Lingfeng actually liked this daughter who came to him out of nowhere, but he really didn't know how to get along with the little girl, so he could only try to act as intimate as possible.
"Thank you, Dad."
Huo Baoer nodded excitedly, looking at the pile of raw stones with an eager look on her face.
“I want to buy this.”
Not long after, Huo Baoer pointed to a fist-sized piece of blue raw stone and said crisply.
Huo Lingfeng raised his eyebrows slightly, and couldn't help but be a little surprised: "Bao'er likes this?"
"Yeah, I like it!"
"Well, come with me. I'll buy this rough stone for you!"
Huo Lingfeng said as he was about to pay the bill.
At this time, a man with a pointed face and monkey cheeks came over and said in a sarcastic tone: "Hey, isn't this the second young master of the Huo family? Why are you here to join in the fun of gambling on jade? A nerd like you, you still want to open jade, don't dream."
Huo Lingfeng frowned slightly and recognized that this was Song Yuanfeng, the second young master of the Song family in the imperial capital. The Song family and the Huo family had been competing with each other in the business world.
Huo Yuchen stepped forward and said loudly, "Keep your mouth shut, my uncle will definitely be able to find good jade."
Song Yuanfeng smiled disdainfully: "Little brat, don't be stubborn here. If you have the guts, ask your uncle to open a stone for me to see."
Huo Lingfeng didn't bother to pay attention to him and said to the staff next to him: "I want this rough stone."
The staff moved the raw stone to the stone-crushing machine, and as the machine started, people gathered around.
When a corner of the raw stone was cut, a hint of emerald green appeared, and the crowd immediately burst into exclamations.
"Wow, it's jade, it looks like good quality."
"This guy is really lucky."
Song Yuanfeng's face changed and he snorted coldly: "Tsk, it's just good luck, maybe it's just an ordinary glutinous jadeite."
As the raw stone was continuously cut, the full appearance of the jade gradually emerged. It turned out to be a piece of icy green jade with a mellow texture and bright color.
Huo Lingfeng was slightly surprised.
Unexpectedly, Baoer just pointed casually and pulled out a piece of ice jadeite. Although it was not high ice type, it had green color, so it was considered a small increase.
Huo Yuchen jumped up excitedly: "There really is jade, that's great!"
Huo Baoer also clapped her hands: "Dad is so awesome!"
It never occurred to her that she had actually chosen the stone herself.
Song Yuanfeng's face turned pale. He didn't expect that Huo Lingfeng really unearthed jade, and it was an icy jade at that.
At this time, Wang Tiancheng, the boss of the gambling stone field, came over and said with a smile: "Master Huo has a good eye. This piece of ice-green jadeite is worth a lot of money."
Huo Lingfeng smiled slightly: "Boss Wang, thank you for the compliment. It's just luck."
He did not say that Huo Baoer had chosen the stone, as he did not want to draw attention to the child.
Wang Tiancheng said quickly: "Master Huo is so lucky, I wonder if he wants to look at other rough stones?"
Since he could open a gambling stone field in the imperial capital, he was naturally not an ordinary person and he knew all the second generations in the imperial capital well.
Huo Lingfeng wanted to refuse, but Huo Qinghuang, who had been silent, suddenly asked, "Do you have any other rough stones of higher quality?"
She just took a quick look and found that the raw stones here had mixed auras, with only a few of them being of good quality, which was far from enough for her needs.
"Yes, yes, everyone follow me!"
Wang Tiancheng immediately smiled and hurriedly led the way.
Song Yuanfeng's face turned pale.
He grew up in luxury and had never been ignored like this before.
His eyes flickered over Huo Qinghuang, and suddenly a hint of mockery came out: "Is this the eldest daughter that the Huo family just found? She is quite pretty, but I don't know how good her taste is. Don't let her lose everything and have to walk around naked on the street."
These words were extremely rude, and totally unlike what a child from an aristocratic family would say.
What's more, it was directed at a young girl, and everyone around changed their expressions when they heard it.
