Zhuang Zhou came back with a teacup and said with a smile:
"Mr. Hou, you are too kind. I was lucky to get this."
Mr. Hou walked up to the bloodstone, examined it carefully for a long time, and then nodded:
"Yes, yes. This bloodstone is of top quality in both color and texture. It is an extremely rare Bahrain bloodstone."
Chen Daiming also echoed the praise:
"Mr. Hou is indeed an expert. This is indeed Bahrain Bloodstone."
Ma Changbo took the opportunity to ask:
"Mr. Hou, how much is this piece of bloodstone worth?"
Mr. Hou pondered for a moment and said:
"The mineral resources of Bahrain's bloodstone have long been depleted, and such fine products have not appeared for many years.
If calculated based on the market price, this piece of raw bloodstone is worth at least 10 million.
If the Dahongpao seal is valued at 3 million yuan per piece in the past, this piece of raw stone can be used to make at least 7 standard seals of 3 cm in size.
The price would have to be at least doubled, and this piece of raw bloodstone would be worth at least 20 million."
Zhuang Zhou was delighted. He didn't expect that the price given by Mr. Hou was basically consistent with Ural's suggestion.
Ma Changbo was also happy in his heart, it seemed that he really made a profit.
But he didn't show it, just smiled and said:
"Mr. Hou has a really good eye. He hit the nail on the head."
Elder Hou glanced at Zhuang Zhou, then at Ma Changbo:
"What do you mean? Old Ma, have you already taken possession of this bloodstone?"
Ma Changbo chuckled and stretched out a finger:
"I just got 10 million."
Old Hou frowned and looked at Zhuang Zhou and said:
"Brother Xiaozhuang, why didn't you come to me for such a good thing?"
"ah!"
Zhuang Zhou explained:
"I was thinking about you just getting a Changhua chicken blood stone inkstone at the last auction, so I was thinking about Mr. Ma!"
"Hey! I like them all, and this one is obviously bigger."
Upon hearing this, Ma Changbo showed a great sense of victory:
"Haha! I can also snatch a treasure from Mr. Hou. This feels so good!"
Hou Lao rolled his eyes, looked at Zhuang Zhou and asked:
"Has the money arrived? If not, you can still deny it!"
Ma Changbo: “???”
"Mr. Hou, you can't be like this! I've already asked the finance department to transfer the money."
Zhuang Zhou was also speechless.
But looking at Mr. Hou's expression, it seemed that he was not joking.
But how could he possibly deny Ma Changbo and find another buyer?
If this gets out, you won’t be able to stay in this circle anymore.
"Let it go this time. I just feel bad for such a good baby!"
As he spoke, Mr. Hou's tone was full of blame:
"Brother Zhuang, next time you get something good like this, please think of me first!"
Upon hearing this, Zhuang Zhou had no choice but to nod and agree:
"Of course, of course."
Ma Changbo also laughed heartily:
"Don't worry, Mr. Hou. I won't fight with you anymore. I'll use this piece to carry on the family line."
When Mr. Hou heard his sarcastic remarks, he looked at Zhuang Zhou and urged:
"Where's the baby I want!"
Ma Changbo and Chen Daiming looked over almost at the same time.
Zhuang Zhou said, "Don't worry! They are all good things."
After saying that, he went to take out the stone.
Kunlun Mountain topaz, Tianhuang stone, and Qingtian jadeite.
Good job!
Ma Changbo and Chen Daiming were already stunned.
Even Mr. Hou was completely dumbfounded.
Although I had heard Zhuang Zhou mention it a long time ago.
But looking at it right in front of us, it’s so spectacular!
Each stone has its own unique color and texture, exuding fascinating charm.
Especially the Kunlun Mountain yellow jade and Tian Huangshi.
It is breathtakingly beautiful.
But in Zhuang Zhou's opinion, these stones are not treasures at all.
It is stone.
The main ingredient is silicon dioxide.
But that's what art is.
Those who love it treat it as a treasure.
I don't catch a cold.
It’s better to eat a big steamed bun to fill your stomach.
Zhuang Zhou is such a vulgar person.
"Everyone, please take a look. Feel free to look."
Zhuang Zhou greeted him and sat down to drink tea leisurely.
Old Hou was the first to come to his senses. He walked to the pile of stones and examined them carefully one by one.
Every touch, every look, seems so serious.
His eyes were filled with awe and love for stones.
It is obvious that Mr. Qian really loves stones.
Ma Changbo and Chen Daiming also gathered around.
Although they are not as pious as Mr. Hou.
But it can also be seen that he loves these stones very much.
Ma Changbo couldn't help but exclaimed:
"Brother Zhuang, you really found a treasure this time.
Any one of these stones would cause a sensation."
Chen Daiming also nodded in agreement:
"Yes, these stones are the best works of art, priceless!"
Mr. Hou looked at it for a while.
Then he turned to look at Zhuang Zhou, his eyes full of admiration:
“Xiaozhuang, these stones are all good things.
Especially the Kunlun Mountain yellow jade and Tian Huangshi, which are rare to see.
"Brother Xiaozhuang, I'm afraid I'll have to sell everything I have!"
Zhuang Zhou smiled slightly when he heard this:
"Mr. Hou, you are joking!
For a big shot like you, even a hair you pluck would be thicker than my waist.
Besides, these stones are good.
But without experts like you, Mr. Ma, and Master Chen to appreciate them, they would just be a pile of ordinary stones.”
