Chapter 0188 – Jade Bidding Fair
Zhuang Rui caught a glimpse of Song Jun who slowly and methodically just walked in from the doorway. He quickly asked, “Brother Song, you’re not going to follow them to join in the fun, are you?”
Wei brother yesterday Zhuang Rui in Nanjing gambling stone thing to this brother a few, these livestock immediately like a chicken blood like excited up, even the always stable old three is also eager to try, actually this tour of the marriage of five thousand dollars are taken out, said to enter the shares, let Zhuang Rui to help bet a hand.
At that time, the old three and Zhang Rong that vice full of hopeful eyes expression, so that Zhuang Rui now or the heart of the cold, which if the gamble is lost, the old three may be subject to what stimulation, scared Zhuang Rui then froze did not dare to take the old three of this money.
This is not early in the morning, a few people hit Zhuang Rui phone does not work after, have to find the door, as if afraid of their own late, good stone are picked by others in general, but Song Jun early in the morning also ran to their rooms, so that Zhuang Rui some surprise, he will not be like this brother a few general fickleness.
“Go so early for what ah! Listening to the leader’s speech? Go eat breakfast first, then I’ll rub your car and go …… together.”
Song Jun’s words made Zhuang Rui a bit confused and asked, “Brother Song. Still need to drive?”
“Nonsense! For a place as narrow as Jade Street, you think you can set up a few stalls? Let’s go! It’s almost time after breakfast, right, you’re going with so many people, how many invitations did you get?”
“Invitations? What’s that?” Zhuang Rui wondered if he was still drunk! So many inexplicable questions so early in the morning.
“This Stone Gambling Conference is not for ordinary tourists, but is specially organized for jade merchants from all over the country, you must have an invitation from the organizer to get in, one invitation can take two people with you, how can you get in without invitations! First of all, I also only have one, in addition to Master Peng, can only bring one more person.”
In fact, what Song Jun said is not entirely true, in the first few days, indeed are all over the jade merchants into the field of gambling, but wait until the end of the gambling conference, will also be open for tourists, just want to find a good wool, the odds will be much smaller.
Zhuang Rui did not think that this gambling conference actually have this kind of statement, can not help but anxious up, this brother a few are stored in the heart to see some, can not have gone with the Song Jun into the buddies are thrown outside regardless of it?
“Lei Lei, right. Lei Lei there must have an invitation, let her take two people in, and then find the old man to think of a way, came all the way here, always want to let a few brothers to go in to see some ah!” Thinking of this, Zhuang Rui took out his cell phone, and was ready to call Lei Lei to inquire about it first.
In Zhuang Rui ready to call when, Wei brother stood out, said weakly: “the youngest, I want to think of a thing, yesterday the old man let someone bring you a few post, I thought it was to invite you to dinner or something, did not care, as if casually put somewhere.”
Zhuang Rui heard, also did not dial Lei Lei’s phone, directly to the old man called the past, the old man side seems to be a little noisy, there is the sound of firecrackers, as if there is also the sound of the lion dance call, Zhuang Rui asked, the old man really prepared three posts for him. Called people to send over.
Hanging up his cell phone, Zhuang Rui looked at Yang Wei and said: “Brother Wei, if you can’t remember where the invitation is placed, then you have committed public anger ah! Don’t blame your brother for not helping you ……”
“Don’t talk nonsense with him, brothers, fight it ……”
Beijing small bureaucrat finally found the opportunity to rectify the boss of the second time, took the lead and rushed up, the brothers are accustomed to making a scene, and at the same time together to go forward, the oldest two even lifted up the quilt on Zhuang Rui’s bed and covered it, and fiercely flattened Weiguo, and the room immediately resounded with the sound of a ghostly wailing.
“Fuck me, come for real ah? Just now who grabbed my little JJ, brother I can be really anxious, don’t, don’t fight, I remember where the post is.”
By the time the quilt was lifted, Weiguo’s hair was disheveled like a chicken’s nest, and he stood there with a sad face.
“Little brothers don’t make a fuss, there is the post let’s go now, go late good wool can be picked by others ah!” Song Jun’s voice came from the doorway.
“Don’t look at me, I’m going to go and get it!” When Brother Wei saw Brother Yue Jing’s eyes looking at him again, he slipped out and ran to the guest room he was staying in to get the invitation.
“Brother Song, how far is it?”
Zhuang Rui drove the car and looked at Song Jun sitting in the back row from the reverse mirror, his car only sat Song Jun and Master Peng, the front passenger seat was naturally occupied by the White Lion. Zhuang Rui was afraid that the kind of thing that happened yesterday would happen again, so he couldn’t help but bring the white lion with him.
“Immediately arrived, that, see, there is a shed in front there is.” Song Jun pointed to the side of the road in front, signaling Zhuang Rui to pull over.
This Pingzhou Gambling Conference, of course, the official name is called “Jade Bidding and Trade Fair” Pingzhou side in 2003 after the trial run, the positive feedback, attracted China and Myanmar jade merchants flocked to, basically replacing the traditional bargaining jade trading methods, this time, although it is only the second time the Pingzhou Jade Association, but its influence, has far exceeded the Yunnan Jade Association, but it is also the second time the Pingzhou Jade Association organized the event. Although this is only the second time that the Pingzhou Jade Association has organized the event, its influence has far exceeded that of Tengchong, the holy land of gambling in Yunnan.
The “Jade Bidding Fair” not only concentrates jadeite raw material traders from all over the country, but also several famous jadeite trading groups and large companies from Myanmar have set up offices in Pingzhou and directly transported the raw materials to Pingzhou to participate in the conference, so its influence has risen sharply, which is not only convenient for many jade manufacturers in China, but also increases the value and economic benefits of the raw stones. value and economic benefits of the raw stones.
The organizer, the Pingzhou Jade Association, rented a large open-air warehouse as the venue for this trade fair. After Zhuang Rui parked his car outside, he took the White Lion and stepped out of the car, looking around, in this open space that was considered a parking lot, there were many name brand cars, namely Hummer cars like Song Jun, there were several of them.
At the entrance of the venue on the ground, covered with a thick layer of firecracker confetti, the doorway is also hung with a huge red banner, which reads “The Second Pingzhou Jade Bidding Fair”, Zhuang Rui seems to have come a little late. There was now a long line at the entrance, all of them were holding posters ready to enter.
Zhuang Rui had three invitations in his hand, counting Shang Rui as seven people, plus Song Jun’s invitation could bring one more person in, so it just so happened that all the people on his side could enter.
“I’m sorry, this gentleman, this pet of yours can’t go in.” Just as Song Jun and the others had examined their invitations and were about to enter, Zhuang Rui, who was walking at the very back, was stopped by the staff of the convention.
“Do you have a rule that pets cannot enter?” Zhuang Rui narrowed his eyes and asked unhappily.
“No, but ……”
“Since there isn’t, then please get out of the way, this pet of mine doesn’t bite, of course, if anything happens, I’ll be responsible for it all.”
Zhuang Rui nonchalantly pushed away the man’s hand that was stopping him and walked in with the white lion, although that staff member had the intention to stop, but after being glared at by the white lion, he was suddenly chilled and no longer had the courage to reach out his hand.
Zhuang Rui originally is not so unreasonable person, but one is afraid to encounter yesterday kind of thing, plainly eat a loss, two to come to participate in this gambling conference inside the people with pets, just went in the person also led a Pekingese dog, although the white lion is a little big, but it is a pet is not, compared to the value of which people dare to say that they bring pets are worth more than the white lion?
“Hey, good, the youngest is now very dominant, this waist bag has money, waist plate is hard stick, some other day to Beijing, brother to take you to play on Chang’an Street reverse go.”
Walking in Zhuang Rui side of the oldest two, is very hard to pat Zhuang Rui’s shoulders to encourage.
In Beijing there are so a bunch of princes, after drinking too much wine at night, in Chang’an Street, playing horizontal, there are not afraid of the traffic police will carry them into the bureau, but this side of the arrest, that side of a phone call to be released, the number of times the traffic police simply do not ask, as long as there is no foreign affairs activities, let them tossed to go, small life is always their own.
Walking in front of the Song Jun sniffed back to Yue Jing smiled and scolded: “Your kid hair up Qi did not ah! Do you want me to help your old man teach you a lesson?”
“Uncle Song, Mr. Song, I’m just saying, you know, we’ve been honest kids since we were kids, we don’t sue the blackmail ah!” After hearing Song Jun’s words, the old man quickly shrunk his neck, his father’s grandfather and Song Jun’s grandfather is the same generation of people, counting him to be later than Song Jun’s generation, so from yesterday to see Song Jun, was eaten to death by it.
“You kid, if you want to enter the career path, you’d better be a bit more stable in general.” Song Jun did not lighten up and nodded his second, if it wasn’t for Zhuang Rui’s relationship, he wouldn’t have bothered to say it!
“I know, Uncle Song, I’m not letting go with my classmates!” Lao Er nodded his head and bowed his head in a manner that was very much the style of people in the officialdom who welcomed their superiors and bullied their subordinates.
“Lao Er, you also learn more from Lao San, look at others Lao San, how stable …… I fuck, the stones here are emerald?”
Wei originally also wanted to borrow Song Jun to teach a few words to Lao Er, the words did not finish, the person has walked to the middle of the venue of this gambling stone conference, and was immediately shocked by the grand scale of the gambling stone meeting place.
Hundreds of wool merchants exhibitors, which also includes the big jadeite merchants in Burma, alone hundreds of temporarily built sheds, let a person some dazzled, not to mention the mountain of jadeite wool in each shed, but also let the boss to see full of gold stars, itching to pounce on to nibble on a bite.
“Okay, Zhuang Rui, today’s day is open bidding, you guys look at it! Those booths on the tools, are free to use, can be on-site deciphering, but old brother you have to take it easy ah! Don’t be so sure that you don’t earn your money back, but you’ll be a pauper.”
Although Song Jun is not in the jade business, but after entering here, the look is also a little excited, after explaining Zhuang Rui a few sentences, pulling Master Peng drilled into the crowd.
