After a hasty breakfast at the hostel, the film crew went directly to Ruili Jewelry Street, known as the "No. [-] Jade Street in China". It is a must-go place when you come to Ruili.However, the emeralds in this place are mixed, and whether one can identify high-end ones depends entirely on the eyes of the buyer.

Waiting for them at the gate of Jewelry Street was a jadeite businessman whom he had contacted before. His surname was Ye, and his name was Ye Chengyou. This boss Ye was about fifty years old, with a medium build and dark skin. With big white teeth, he seems to have a good temper.

Because we had already communicated yesterday, everyone was not too polite, and went straight to Boss Ye’s shop on Feicui Street. It was only past six o’clock at the moment, but almost all the shops in the market were open, and there were still many. The buyer strolled on the street, hoping to find a piece of high-quality emerald that caught the eye.

Lezheng Li glanced at the orange-red sun that had just appeared in the sky, and said in amazement: "The market opens so early, what time does it start?"

Boss Ye answered with a smile on the side, and said: "This little brother may not be clear, but the rules of our Emerald Street are to get up early and close early. In the morning, the market must open before the sun rises, and in the evening, the market must open before the sun goes down." Closed before."

"Before the sun?" Wei Yihong couldn't help interjecting and asked, "What if it rains?"

Boss Ye laughed and said, "That's easy. It depends on when the rooster crows. After three cock crows, we will open the market." Then, he glanced back at the entrance of the market, which was a little far away. "It's the big rooster at the door."

Hearing that, everyone in the film crew looked at each other in blank dismay. When did this become a rule?Why haven't you heard of it before?

Therefore, Lezheng Li asked, "Then why is that? I don't seem to have heard of such a rule in other places' jade markets."

Boss Ye explained: "This is a rule that came after Mr. Tao came. Don't tell me, since we came here according to this, the amount of jadeite unearthed in the market has doubled compared to before. Mr. Tao is really a genius." Ah!" As he spoke, there was a look of reverence on his face, obviously admiring the "Mr. Tao" in his mouth.

Mr Tao?

Several people glanced at each other, Zhang Jiu and the Mr. Stone Gambling they mentioned yesterday were also surnamed Tao, could it be the same person?

Xia Ming seemed to ask unintentionally, "Boss Ye, who is this Mr. Tao, who can increase the probability of emerald greening with the opening and closing time of the market?"

"Mr. Tao is Ruili's most famous divine eye!" Boss Ye gave a thumbs up as he said, "You can tell whether there is green in the rough stone with just a pair of eyes. Do you think he is powerful?"

Several people quickly nodded in agreement: "It's amazing, why is it so amazing!"

Boss Ye got the approval, and nodded with satisfaction: "Yes, Mr. Tao is not only capable, but also a good person. He told the chairman of the Jade Association about this method. They don't take any money and provide it for free. It's hard for a good person like him these days. Very little!"

Everyone was sure, it seemed that it was the same person, but if this Mr. Tao was really a good man with a big heart like Boss Ye said, how could he be related to the four murders?By the way... this Mr. Tao is not a person at all...

Lezheng Li tilted his head and glanced at Yin Ranyi who was walking beside him without saying a word, and blinked at him, wanting to ask him if he saw anything unusual, Yin Ranyi just shook his head, indicating that There is nothing strange about it.

While speaking, everyone came to Boss Ye's shop. The shop was divided into two parts, the inside and the outside. The carved jade ornaments were displayed on the outside, and there were also scattered pieces of uncarved jade. It was the place where the rough emerald stones were placed, and everyone greeted the proprietress who guarded the store, and then went into the inner room with Boss Ye to shoot.

There are many ways to bet on rocks and unravel stones, and it is impossible to explain it clearly in just one day. Today they are going to shoot "Stone Gambling" first, and they must tell the world with scientific principles. Mr.'s basic fact of "you can see green at a glance" is a deceit; of course, it is not easy to say this in front of Boss Ye, and the post-editing will not make it so obvious. After all, these people still have to be considered The issue of emotional sustenance, this Mr. Tao is almost being praised as a god, and it is easy to cause public anger to rashly accuse the other party without definite evidence.

Betting on rocks and stones, the focus is on the word "gambling". The most famous bet in history is "Heshibi". If King Wen of Chu ordered craftsmen to untie the jade, maybe the raw materials of the handed down jade seal would have changed. The last change, the two kings of Chu thought they had been cheated and cut off the left and right legs of Bian He. Let’s not mention it for now. This shows the risk and uncertainty of betting on stones from the side. Baby or rubbish - that's the real rock betting.

Le Zhengli had never been in contact with the gambling stone party before, but he once followed a professor to visit a jade carving master. The other party had a lot of research on jadeite, and he also learned some technical terms, so he saw Boss Ye and the boy holding out a rough stone Come, and subconsciously said: "Yangmei Shapi, good stuff."

Boss Ye glanced at him, showing some admiration: "Little brother, you have a good eye. This is a red bayberry. It has a sunroof, and the color is good, but no one dares to do it."

Lezheng Li smiled and said: "Yangmei sharpie is too rare now, and the price of this piece is probably not low. If I got a piece, I would definitely hide it and play with it carefully. It is Boss Ye who is so generous that he took such a high-grade one as soon as he came here." Show us."

"Little brother not only has good eyesight, but also has a very sweet mouth." Boss Ye laughed again and again, and directed the boy to put the rough stone on the high platform in front of him, and said: "Let's talk about gambling stones, let's take this one as an example. .”

There is a lot of knowledge about stone gambling, and it can take half a year to learn just by looking at the color and pattern. Le Zhengli stood next to Yin Ranyi and watched Boss Ye explain how to judge whether it will be green by observing the green color of the rough stone skin. The voice said to Yin Ranyi: "How can I see that there is a layer of light floating on the surface of the stone." After saying that, he subconsciously looked down and saw that the totem was printed on his wrist, and there was no abnormality.

Yin Ranyi was taken aback when he heard the words, he changed the angle to shoot, and he moved away from behind the camera to look at the stone, then nodded to Lezhengli, and said silently: "There is green."

Le Zhengli was so startled that he almost didn't jump up, how could Yin Ranyi have such abilities?Can you tell if there is green in the rough jadeite? !

Yin Ranyi carried the camera on his shoulder with one hand, and lightly pinched Lezheng Li's fingertips with his left hand. The latter turned his eyes away to look at the other rough stones in the room, but he didn't see any luster on them, and even some He didn't see any light floating on the two pieces of jade that had been completely untied.

Is it only this one?Le Zhengli was suspicious, and couldn't help but lock his eyes on the rough stone under Ye Boss' hands.
