A 50-year-old man is reborn and becomes a complete slacker, leaving his scumbag children completely

Hu Dahai was stunned for a moment.

These two were clearly put out by the auction house owner for those who didn't know anything about them to choose from, since the value of these two rough stones could be seen at a glance.

So he said truthfully, "These two are indeed good, but the price will definitely be very high later, and it may even exceed the intrinsic value of these two jadeite rough stones."

"So if you're going to buy one, I'd suggest choosing from the other eight on the side; you might just make a lot of money."

After hearing Hu Dahai's words, they seemed to realize something; they hadn't expected this at all.

"Which ones do you recommend we film?" Hu Dahai asked without even realizing it.

He didn't know why, but he just instinctively felt that Hu Dahai was more capable than them in these kinds of situations.

"Number 6 and number 9," Hu Dahai said, quoting two numbers.

In the newspapers of that time, these two were considered relatively lucky finds.

Number 6 was selected by professionals at the time.

At a low price, a large area of ​​greenery was created.

Of course, what's even more surprising is number 9. Someone was taking pictures of it and misheard it as number 8, so they just took the picture.

I only realized I had taken a picture of number 9 after I took the photo.

Finally, feeling utterly hopeless, he decided to have the stone cut open, just to make everyone laugh.

When it was cut open, it turned out to be full of green, and it was a high-quality raw stone without any cracks.

Because there was a thick layer of rock inside the jade, one end was a light layer of cracked green, while the other end was the real good green. The window was opened on the cracked end, so when they shone a light inside, all they saw were cracks, and they thought there was no chance.

That person truly experienced a rollercoaster of emotions, earning a full 3 from just one stone.

So Hu Dahai suggested these two items to them.

This time, although ** and Zhang Zhaoxing also felt that the two pieces Hu Dahai mentioned were rather unremarkable, especially number 9, which was rather poor.

However, after what happened with the Xuantong Yuanbao coin, they dared not utter any more doubts.

I silently memorized numbers 6 and 9.

On the other side of the auction hall, Li Hongyan glanced at Hu Dahai and his group.

He just saw that Zhaoxing and the others had been standing for a long time before numbers 2 and 8, so he knew that they were basically going to choose those two spots.

"Hehe, trash is trash. These two pieces are definitely not worth bidding on. I had to bring a knowledgeable friend. The one that's most worth bidding on is actually number 6."

Li Hongyan felt he could shine at this auction, and then he could take the opportunity to advertise for his father and himself, letting more of Hangzhou's elite know about their strength.

The auction has begun.

Stone number 1 was unremarkable and was auctioned off to someone for a price that was neither too high nor too low.

As soon as the auction reached the No. 2 rough stone, the competition immediately became fierce and serious.

Many people began to compete for the auction.

This quickly drove up the price of the raw stone.

And in a very short time, the prices quoted by everyone were already very close to the value of jade.

As a result, fewer and fewer people bid, and the final winner was almost entirely driven by nostalgia.

The following numbers were also unremarkable until they drew number 6.

As soon as the auctioneer signaled the start of the bidding, Li Hongyan couldn't wait to open his bid: "I bid 3000! I feel a connection with this stone. I won't compete with the others for it; I want this one."

He directly raised the price by a full 1000.

This effectively silenced everyone, leaving them too afraid to set a price.

The main reason is that many people have seen the No. 6 rough stone and felt that it wasn't very good, so they didn't dare to bid on it casually.

They're afraid that if they raise their prices too high, no one will follow suit, and they'll end up buying at a high price.

Others knew Li Hongyan's identity and wanted to see what tricks he was up to.

However, after a brief silence, Hu Dahai raised his hand: "4000."

The value of this No. 6 rough stone is estimated to be around 13,000 yuan, so there is still enough room for profit.

Upon hearing Hu Dahai's voice, Li Hongyan's eyes widened in surprise. She never expected that Hu Dahai would compete with her for this raw stone.

How dare he!

Li Hongyan clenched her fists tightly in anger.

He didn't think Hu Dahai could discern the value of the No. 6 rough stone, so he instinctively felt that Hu Dahai was deliberately trying to annoy him and was deliberately bidding against him.

But if he doesn't buy this rough stone, how will he show off later? How will he make everyone look up to him?

Li Hongyan grew angrier the more she thought about it, wishing she could chop Hu Dahai into mincemeat right now.

Despite my frustration, we still need to keep up with the price.

He raised his hand and immediately increased the price by 2000: "7000."

He wanted to use this to force Hu Dahai to back down, and he even mouthed "MMP" to Hu Dahai.

However, Hu Dahai still raised his hand: "8000".

Originally, Hu Dahai didn't want to raise the price any further, as it was pointless. However, when he saw Li Hongyan's constipated expression and the murderous look in her eyes, Hu Dahai changed his mind.

Even if it only earns 1000, Hu Dahai still wants to keep trying. Even if it's just to annoy Li Hongyan a little.

Of course, there is another purpose: to prepare him for competing for the No. 9 raw stone later. By intimidating Li Hongyan now, Li Hongyan will not dare to make a move when competing for the No. 9 raw stone.

Li Hongyan turned to the expert she had brought and asked, "Approximately how much is this jadeite rough worth after it's been cut open?"

The expert gave a vague answer: "Roughly around, depending on the specific situation inside."

With that statement, Li Hongyan felt a little more confident; as long as she could make money, that was fine.

So he boldly raised the price again: "9000!"

Hu Dahai smiled faintly and followed the price quote closely: ".

The onlookers were now completely numb. The scene had become a duel between Li Hongyan and Hu Dahai, and no one else had made a bid.

They never expected that Hu Dahai and Li Hongyan would fight like this over a rough stone that no one thought much of.

Zhang Zhaoxing and the others were even more worried, saying, "Dahai, with such a high price, won't we lose money?"

"Don't worry, I won't. I'll stop following when it starts to lose money," Hu Dahai said confidently.

His words left Zhang Zhaoxing and the others speechless.

What do you mean by waiting until you're about to lose money? Why are you acting like you know exactly how much this rough stone is worth?

Dong Daoquan, who was sitting in front, couldn't help but glance at Hu Dahai several times.

I can't figure out what Hu Dahai is doing.

Is he really just trying to spite Li Hongyan?

Unlike the bewildered crowd at the scene, Hu Dahai and Li Hongyan remained focused on negotiating the price.

The price also soared from 10,000 to 13,000.

But when Li Hongyan called out 13,000, he was already prepared; if Hu Dahai called out 14,000, he wouldn't follow.

After all, the value of this rough stone is only around 15,000. If it's slightly more than 15,000, wouldn't I be losing money if I asked for 15,000?

So it's better to trick Hu Dahai in the end and make him lose face.

However, ideals are always lofty, while reality is always harsh.

After Li Hongyan called out the price, Hu Dahai hesitated to follow up with another bid.

All eyes were on Hu Dahai.

Hu Dahai grinned, revealing his large white teeth, and said to Li Hongyan, "Hehe, you win, I won't shout anymore."

Li Hongyan: "......"

I'll f*** you!

He was really starting to lose his composure; he felt like he'd been played for a fool!

But when he thought that the rough stone might still yield green jade and he could sell it for a profit, making him 2000 yuan in the process, he calmed down a bit.

Li Hongyan said, "Hehe, although everyone is not optimistic about this rough stone, I think it will definitely yield green jade. And even though the price is high now, I am sure I can still make money."

He wanted to save face by doing this.

The person next to him asked in confusion, "Young Master Li, how can you be so confident?"

“Of course, I have my own judgment,” Li Hongyan said with some pride.
