Quick Wear: Give the Resentful Man a Home
Chapter 108 The Cheated Young Master 9
There has been no news about Ruan Xun's new work in the past year and a half, and many old fans have been waiting impatiently.
Who would have thought that a new work would come out without any warning or foreshadowing.
The comic tells the story of a young boy who one day awakens his talent from a family heirloom, enabling him to identify jade and travel far and wide in search of the world's rare treasures and precious stones.
【Our Papa teacher is finally back! 】
[It's actually about the field of jadeite, how novel. 】
Ruan Xun stroked the pen and sat motionless in front of the computer, staring at the link shared to Duan Wu in the dialog box. It seemed like half a century had passed, but he still didn't get a response.
Is she busy or does she just not want to pay attention to him.
It turns out that not getting a response is such a torment. I covered my forehead with my hands, and my mood sank little by little.
Looking back at the previous records, I realized that I was so cold towards Duan Wu before. It's rare that he can still be as enthusiastic as before.
Ruan Xun sighed, what goes around comes around.
Feeling depressed, Ruan Xun suddenly stood up.
[Duan Wu: The first sentence is wrong. The luster of bean seeds is not so bright.]
Ruan Xun quickly replied: "I haven't seen it, can you show it to me?"
There was no movement over there again. According to the time on the computer, it was also night time in Country M. They said that it was not possible to go out to pick jadeite at this time.
He dialed the video call directly, his heart beat faster and his fingertips became nervous, the root of his tongue felt numb.
After a brief darkness, the handsome face of the young man appeared in the camera, and a wisp of smoke spread from his mouth and disappeared.
"Duan Wu..."
"Why did you think of calling me?"
“…….” The language is trapped in the brain and the teeth just won’t cooperate.
The three words "I miss you" seemed to be poisoned. Ruan Xun looked at the curious eyes on the phone, lowered his head, and still couldn't say it.
"Didn't you say there was something wrong with my first sentence? I want to know what bean seeds look like."
Duan Wu casually took out a small jade token from his pocket. The pattern on it was engraved in a mess and looked a bit weird. He put it in the palm of his hand and held it in front of the camera so that Ruan Xun could see it clearly.
“This is the bean seed.”
Ruan Xun was in a state of confusion, and he was not here to learn about jadeite.
I made up a random thought, "Oh, I see. What is this pattern? A piglet? So cute."
There was a chuckle from the other end of the video
"This is a fucking rabbit."
……
Ruan Xun then found out that Duan Wu had recently met a carving master, and he learned jade carving from him in his spare time after the public auction every day.
This Rabbit Pig is Duan Wu’s debut work.
Duan Wu leaned against the head of the bed and chatted idly about his recent experiences. Occasionally, he would hide outside the camera to take a deep breath and turn around to see the smoke.
"You don't have to hide from me when smoking."
"Aren't you annoying?"
"I didn't say that," Ruan Xun denied.
"In the comics." Duan Wu put out his cigarette. "You said you hate men who smoke."
Ruan Xun touched his chest and replied incoherently, "No, you look pretty cool when you smoke."
"You're really fickle." Duan Wu sat up straight, leaned closer to the camera and stared at Ruan Xun, "Come closer."
"Ah?" Ruan Xun didn't understand what he meant, but still leaned in front of the camera, looking puzzled. "Is there any problem?"
"Let's see if you can perform Sichuan opera face-changing and how many faces you have hidden behind your back."
Ruan Xun is very fair, with skin that is a tender pink. Even the fine hair can be seen under the light. There are no blemishes on her skin, and her earlobes are always red.
Duan Wu looked at him straight. Ruan Xun felt a little shy but did not step away.
He has pushed Duan Wu away so many times, so many times that he feels guilty and despicable like a scumbag who keeps fish.
If Duan Wu asked him if he wanted to change, Ruan Xun swore that he would nod immediately and would never act like an idiot.
Unfortunately, Duan Wu said nothing. He just mentioned that if anyone had any questions about the comics, they could contact him. Then he hung up the phone in a hurry and fell asleep peacefully.
Ruan Xun couldn't sleep. He tossed and turned looking at the screenshots on his phone and the photos that Duan Wu had sent him in the past. He was so annoyed that he unknowingly opened the dialog box with Cheng Chao.
All of them were a series of heartfelt greetings and sharings from the other side. Ruan Xun hesitated for a moment, then quickly typed a few words and sent them out.
【Ruan Xun: Let’s cancel the engagement. 】
……
Duan Wu didn't know that Ruan Xun was almost at the point of breaking off the engagement with Cheng Chao because of his imagination. During the bidding period, he quietly entrusted Wang Fafu to buy seven or eight pieces of raw materials for him, and he intentionally or unintentionally selected a few with poor performance to prevent the other party from getting suspicious.
Despite this, the price still rose sharply, and Wang Fafu's reputation also rose.
The blind bidding day has officially begun, and Duan Wu has already raised nearly 400 million yuan to grab the best batch of blind bidding raw materials.
Among the jade merchants present, perhaps only representatives from a few top and established jewelry companies from various countries could compete with him.
The rule of a blind auction is to select the raw stone first, then give your own price, and wait until the bidding day for the highest bid to win. If you bid too much, your profit will be reduced, and if you bid too little, you are afraid that someone else will bid higher.
It not only tests the eyesight, but also the experience of businessmen.
Wang Fafu followed behind Duan Wu to explain the situation of several raw material areas today. From a distance, he saw Shen Jue and Shi Yu had already started to make selections. Since it was related to the gambling stakes, they had to take it seriously.
The news about the competition for the title of Little Jade King has spread to the country. Many people in the Jade Forum said that they still support Shi Yu. Apart from anything else, it depends on one's own ability. How could the Jade King let his apprentice lose?
But Duan Wu had just entered the circle, and he was able to compete with Shi Yu, a new generation leader in the jade circle. This has already amazed many people, and those sour remarks have decreased a lot.
Shi Yu also saw Duan Wu, and his face immediately fell.
He is just a 23-year-old young man who has just entered the industry. How much can he know about raw materials? Compared with Duan Wu, Shi Yu believes that it is the group of stone players in City C who want to create a god.
After all, his master represented the southern jade circle headed by City G. Many northern merchants were not convinced and always felt that they were suppressed by Shen Jue for this reason.
Want to use this method?
Shi Yu looked at Duan Wu with more and more disdain.
Duan Wu didn't know where Shi Yu's inexplicable hostility towards him came from, but as the disciple of the Jade King and the betting target, the quality of the items shouldn't be too bad, right?
This was a gamble that would earn him a lot of money, so he certainly had no reason to refuse. No matter what others thought of him, he was just a young and inexperienced person who was not afraid of tigers.
The rough materials in the blind bidding area were indeed extraordinary. Duan Wu was extremely surprised after visiting only two stalls. Almost all of them had jadeite of various qualities, more or less.
Those new materials that were used to fill in the gaps a few days ago cannot be compared with this one.
He was a little excited for a moment. If he wasn't afraid of attracting too much attention and if he wasn't financially weak, he really wanted to buy all the rare ones.
The price of jade has been rising over the years, but top-grade jade has become increasingly scarce, and many of the original jade mines have been exhausted.
As I was thinking about it, a touching green color appeared before my eyes. This super-giant piece of rough material in front of me, which required three adults to hug it, was actually two-thirds jadeite.
Even Duan Wu felt a little excited, as it was the first time he had seen such quality material. Generally, ice-type material can reach the level of high ice.
At least hundreds of millions of worth of jade can be unearthed.
Unfortunately, the skin of this raw material is too good, and there is even a window that clearly shows that it is ice type. This means that there is almost no gamble on this material. Everyone knows that it is good, so the price will not be low.
Duan Wu shook his head regretfully, estimating that just getting this piece of material would cost nine figures, so he decided not to consider it.
When betting with a player of Shi Yu's level, you must bet small for the chance of a big gain.
