Chapter 60 Betting
If you were a sinister villain, if you were trusted, people would only say you were stupid.
Then, Zhou Zhenghong went to sign the contract and transfer the money with the person who bought the raw materials, and no one knew when Shao Ping left.
Gu Ning was about to cut the stone when Qin Yifan and his companions came towards him.
Qin Yifan and Li Zhenyu were both pushing carts. In Qin Yifan's cart, there were two pieces of raw materials, while in Li Zhenyu's cart, there were three pieces.
When they saw the seven pieces of raw materials on Gu Ning's cart, Qin Yifan and the others widened their eyes in surprise.
Oh my god! He took so long to pick and only picked two pieces, but Gu Ning picked seven pieces of raw materials. Was she picking raw materials or cabbage?
Li Zhenzhen was also surprised, but after the surprise, she felt ironic.
Although she knew that Gu Ning was not short of money, she had never seen anyone waste money like this! "Gu Ning, are you picking raw materials or cabbages?" Qin Yifan said with a smile.
"We picked cheap raw materials," Gu Ning said with a smile, and turned on the perspective to take a look at the raw materials on their cart.
Qin Yifan's two pieces of raw material were one large and one small. The large one was slightly larger than a football, and contained white stones. The small one was half the size of a football, and contained jadeite, but it was a little small, about the size of a baby's fist.
However, judging from the thickness of the mist on the jadeite, it is a mid- to high-end jadeite.
Although Gu Ning could see it, he had no intention of telling the other party, unless she was bored and wanted to cause trouble for him.
As for the three pieces of rough material that Li Zhenyu had, two were as big as half a football, one was white, and one had jadeite, but it should be mid-range only.
There is a piece that is slightly larger than a football, but it is just a green piece.
"Are you sure you want to buy them all?" Qin Yifan asked uncertainly. In fact, he wanted Gu Ning to be cautious, but no one knew whether there were jadeites in it, so he couldn't stop him.
If we stop it and there is really jade in the rough material, it would be a case of doing good with bad intentions, cutting off someone's source of wealth and making people hate us.
"I've already bought it," said Gu Ning.
"Ah! Already bought it?" Qin Yifan was surprised again. He didn't expect Gu Ning to act so quickly. "How much is it?"
"Four and a half million," Gu Ning responded. He looked calm and composed from beginning to end, and he didn't think that four and a half million was anything great at all.
Of course, this is based on the premise that she knew that she would rise sharply. If she didn't know, she wouldn't have the courage to spend 4.5 million to buy seven stones! Although 4.5 million is not a lot for Qin Yifan, he still couldn't spend 4.5 million to buy raw materials at once.
"You are so willful!" Qin Yifan only felt powerless, but since people had already bought it, there was naturally no rule for returns.
"Miss Gu, do you want to cut the stone? I really want to see if Miss Gu can make jade out of it with her eye." The disdain in Li Zhenzhen's words was very obvious, and Qin Yifan naturally heard it, so he expressed his dissatisfaction.
"Zhenzhen, gambling on jadeite is mostly based on luck. Can you guarantee that you understand all the knowledge about gambling on jadeite and can always get jadeite? It doesn't mean that there will be no green if there is no pine flowers, python belts and ringworms." Qin Yifan's words were a bit disrespectful to Li Zhenzhen, but he was telling the truth.
"I..." Li Zhenzhen's face turned pale and blue. It was not that she disagreed with what Qin Yifan said. On the contrary, she agreed with it very much. What made her angry was that Qin Yifan actually talked about her for Gu Ning.
As they walked along the way, the man who had been silent the whole time, Li Zhenzhen's brother Li Zhenyu, couldn't help but frown. He was obviously dissatisfied with Qin Yifan for helping Gu Ning speak about Li Zhenzhen.
But Qin Yifan was not wrong in what he said, so Li Zhenyu couldn't say anything to him.
"It seems that Miss Li is very confident in her ability. Why don't you use your own ability to choose a piece and see whether the rough material I like can produce jadeite, or Miss Li's ability can produce jadeite." People have come to provoke her, so Gu Ning naturally won't keep silent, otherwise people will think she is easy to bully!
Gu Ning's words were also a provocation to Li Zhenzhen.
When the people around heard about the bet, they immediately turned their attention to Gu Ning and Li Zhenzhen, and showed their anticipation.
Li Zhenzhen was provoked, how could she sit still? "Okay! You use your three rough stones to compare with my three rough stones. Whoever produces a jade with a higher value will win. If neither of them produces one, then it's a tie!" Although she said so, Li Zhenzhen was still confident in her rough stones. Although not all three of them might produce jade, she believed that there would always be one with jade.
She was sure that Gu Ning could not produce jadeite, so even if she only had a rough piece of jadeite, she would still win.
“This…” Qin Yifan felt that something was wrong. After all, these raw materials of Li Zhenzhen were all carefully selected by them. Although they were not confident that all of them would produce green, the chance of producing green was also very high.
As for Gu Ning, he is just pleasing to the eye and is not reliable at all!
But before he could say anything, Gu Ning had already agreed: "Okay, but since it's a gamble, there has to be a prize, otherwise it would be too boring."
"What's the prize?" Li Zhenzhen asked, obviously agreeing.
"Let's bet ten million." Gu Ning said.
"Okay," Li Zhenzhen responded readily.
It’s not because Li Zhenzhen doesn’t care about the 10 million. In fact, although she is the daughter of a wealthy family, she doesn’t have that much private money.
She was straightforward because she was confident that she would not lose.
At this point, it was too late for Qin Yifan to stop it. On one side was his best friend, and on the other was someone he admired. He didn't want to see either of them lose, so he could only pray that neither side would be able to see the jade.
From the beginning to the end, Li Zhenyu never expressed any intention to stop it, and he was obviously in agreement and confident.
Li Zhenzhen took out a piece of raw material at random. Gu Ning took a look and found it was waste, so Gu Ning also took a piece of waste.
Although it was waste, Gu Ning still pretended to draw a line on it.
As there happened to be two stone-cutting machines, after Gu Ning and Li Zhenzhen had finished drawing the lines, they each handed them over to two stone-cutting masters to cut the stones.
Although Li Zhenzhen was very confident, the rough material had not been unwrapped after all, and no one knew whether there was jade inside, so she kept her eye on Gu Ning's rough material.
After cutting once, there was nothing. After cutting twice, there was nothing. After cutting a third time, it was still white stone. The rough material was almost cut off in half, but there was still no green. This almost certainly meant that it had collapsed.
Seeing that Gu Ning's raw material collapsed, Li Zhenzhen was relieved, but her raw material also collapsed, which made her very disappointed.
