Chapter 140 Jade Street



"Chu Jun, just follow me from now on. The rest of the bodyguards, spread out and don't all have to follow me."

"I'll give each of you 100,000 yuan. You can have fun today and see how your luck goes!"

Li Daoyuan waved his hand and spent money like water, giving each of them 100,000 yuan.

Li Daoyuan has always been very generous to his bodyguards and has never wronged them in any aspect.

"Thank you, Mr. Li!"

"Thank you, Mr. Li!"

Sure enough, when they heard that Li Daoyuan had a reward, they were all a little excited. After all, one hundred thousand yuan was not a small amount of money.

"Come on, let's go in too. It's still early, so let's go for a walk first."

The main purpose of bringing Gu Yanran here today was to accompany her shopping. As for the opening of the Jade Street, Li Daoyuan didn't take it too seriously.

As soon as he entered the Jade Street, Li Daoyuan clearly felt that there was something different inside.

The architectural style here is all retro, and all the bricks are made of marble.

The quaint little attic makes people feel like they have returned to ancient times.

Since today is the grand opening day of Jade Street, there are a lot of people coming today.

Li Daoyuan took a quick look and saw that there were at least several thousand people.

The entire street is filled with jade, jade artifacts and antiques. Of course, since it is called Gambling Stone Street, it naturally has its signboard, the Gambling Stone Shop.

There are many street stalls on both sides of the street corners.

This is also one of the characteristics of Jade Street. People who set up stalls are generally individuals or personal traders. Jade Street rents a small piece of land to those small vendors and earns a certain amount of rent.

Since there are no store costs and servant fees, the goods sold by small vendors are much cheaper than those sold in stores.

Of course, there are advantages and disadvantages. Since small vendors are mobile and there is no security at all, there is a high possibility that you will buy fakes.

Of course, whether it is a small vendor or a shop, it is possible to sell fake goods. It depends on whether you have a pair of sharp eyes to identify the real and fake goods.

Although street stalls are somewhat indecent, they have promoted the development of the antique business. Some people who do not have much capital cannot afford the high-end goods in the shops, so they think of picking up bargains at street stalls, and there are many successful cases.

After just a few minutes of watching, I saw a large number of pedestrians and vendors coming and going in an endless stream.

Whether inside the shops or next to the stalls, there are always people coming and going, which shows how large the flow of people here is.

In particular, many vendors even shouted at the top of their lungs in order to sell their goods.

"Take a look, take a look. This is a Tang Sancai unearthed from the Tang Dynasty. It is genuine and of good value. Is there any connoisseur who would like to buy it?"

"This is a bronze sword that I acquired at a huge cost. It is said to be two thousand years old. Is there anyone who knows its value? Come and take a look."

"This is a rough stone unearthed from an old mine abroad. It will definitely produce good materials. Someone come and take it away quickly. As long as you can mine it, you will become rich overnight."

Hearing the shouts of this group of people, Li Daoyuan almost couldn't hold back and laughed out loud.

I don’t know what they were thinking. It’s amazing that they could come up with such an obvious lie. Only a fool would fall for it.

But it’s true that there were indeed many fools who were fooled and went to ask about the price, and some even bought things that were obviously fake.

In fact, it’s not that these people are really fools. Maybe they themselves know that these things are just fakes, but they still have a glimmer of fantasy about them and think they are real.

As long as they buy it, if it is true, they will become rich overnight.

This is like a classic saying in the gambling stone world: one cut makes you poor, one cut makes you rich, and one cut makes you wear linen.

People who gamble on stones basically lose nine out of ten times, but they still come in droves.

Because until it is opened, no one knows what is inside.

They would be unwilling not to gamble and explore the truth.

Of course, in the world of novels, most of these cheap goods are prepared for the protagonist.

Even if there is only one piece that seems to be authentic among the one thousand or ten thousand pieces, the person who finds it in the end is basically the protagonist.

Because the protagonist has great luck, he might win a big prize just by buying something casually.

"Boss, this is a batch of rough stones that just arrived. They are all from old mines. Are you interested in taking a look?"

Li Daoyuan and Gu Yanran had just walked a few steps when the owner of a small stall nearby tried to shoot an arrow.

Most of the owners of these small stalls are shrewd people. They can basically tell at a glance whether you are a poor or rich person.

People like Li Daoyuan and Gu Yanran, no matter their temperament or dress, anyone can tell the difference unless they are blind.

Gambling on stones?

Speaking of gambling on stones, Li Daoyuan couldn't help but think of one person, Luo Fan.

Luo Fan is the protagonist who possesses the ability to see through things, and gambling on stones is a gift made for her.

With his X-ray vision, all the stones here cannot escape his eyes.

I just don't know if this guy will come today.

When he thought of this, Li Daoyuan got angry. It turned out that since Luo Fan left his house, he went to the bar to get drunk.

His men saw that Luo Fan was drunk and were careless for a moment, allowing Luo Fan to slip away right under their noses and disappear without a trace.

Although Luo Fan's escape wouldn't amount to much, Li Daoyuan was still a little angry that the cooked duck had escaped.

"Boss Li, how about opening a rough stone for some fun?"

Gu Yanran licked her lips, seeming to be interested.

She didn't want to get rich overnight by gambling on stones, but she wanted to experience the joy of opening a raw stone.

"Okay, since you like it, go and have fun."

"Okay, this time I'm going to open a glass seed that will surprise you!" Gu Yanran said excitedly.

When she heard that she could play gambling on stones, she was as happy as a child, dancing and jumping around.

Glass type?

Hearing what Gu Yanran said, the boss shook his head and showed disdain.

This glass type of jade is not ordinary jade, it is the king of the jade world. For the woman in front of him to open it is just a foolish dream.

But never mind. As long as I can sell the jade in my hands and make a fortune, it's enough. As for whether they have real talent or are just bragging, that is none of the boss's business.

Seeing Gu Yanran, she was as beautiful as a fairy from heaven. Even the stall owner couldn't help but take a few more glances at her and took the initiative to introduce her to others.

Not long after, Gu Yanran paid the money and bought three raw stones.
