Chapter 34: Your little mouth is sweet
Tang Bingyun looked at the timid boy before her, and suddenly her heart overwhelmed a little.
Anyway, he was just an 18-year-old high school student.
How could she treat him like one of those rich sons who spend their days drinking?
And on top of that, she and his mother were on equal footing, and he also called Auntie Tang a few times.
As an elder, it shouldn't be appropriate to treat the younger generation like this.
"I almost forgot to ask, what's your name?" Tang Bingyun's cold face eased up a lot and asked in a calm voice.
"My name is Wang Haoran."
"Wang Haoran? It’s a good name, Hao Ran." Tang Bingyun appreciated it.
“It won't take long. I will finish it as soon as possible, and I will be sure to not make you late for your evening study. ”
"Thank you, Auntie Tang." Wang Haoran was polite and looked at Tang Bingyun with innocent eyes.
But he couldn’t help but secretly exclaim: “Oh, Auntie Tang is really not simple, her figure is simply too…”
Calm down, calm down… I was not here to see her figure.
Wang Haoran settled his mind, and asked knowingly, “Auntie Tang, why are there so many stones on the ground? What does the number marked above them mean?”
Tang Bingyun's attitude towards Wang Haoran has changed so when Wang Haoran asked questions, she was happy to answer his questions.
"These are not ordinary stones, these are raw stones. Well they don't look inconspicuous on the outside, but there are likely to be valuable jade hidden inside. The label attached to that stone is the price. The starting digit is ten thousand, for example, …that one has 10 written on it, it means 100,000 yuan. If someone buys this 100,000 yuan raw stone and opens it, he may either make a profit or a loss, this is called gambling on the stone."
"Oh, got it." Wang Haoran actually already had the basic knowledge but pretended that he was not aware of it.
"What kind of jade is considered good?" This time Wang Haoran asked what he didn't know.
Tang Bingyun asked the female assistant to bring over a jade identification manual and patiently explained it to him.
Wang Haoran's learning ability was still very strong, after listening to Tang Bingyun, he had a basic understanding of all kinds of jade.
"This stone of 200,000 yuan, open it for me."
Suddenly, a middle-aged man in his forties in the shed shouted.
It seemed like the raw stone was selected and the stone cutter was ready to cut it while the crowd gathered around to see.
After a while, the raw stone was cut, revealing a beautiful jade inside it.
"The jade quality is quite transparent, the color is okay, but the impurities are slightly high, the price is 150,000 yuan."
Tang Bingyun opened her mouth and commented.
Then she turned to the middle-aged man who was gambling on the stone and said, "I'm really sorry to make you go through the expense, Mr. Li."
"I'm willing to lose, and it's only a loss of 50,000 yuan, so it's not a big expense."
The middle-aged man didn't care.
Then, he picked another piece of 500,000 yuan and when the stone was opened, he lost another 100,000 yuan.
It seemed like the middle-aged man wanted to turn the table, so he directly picked a piece of 800,000 yuan.
But, unfortunately, not only did he not turn the table, instead a scrap stone was revealed.
Well, a scrap stone was worthless and in total, the middle-aged man lost 950,000 yuan.
He got discouraged with repeated losses .
With such a bad start, the others also lost their enthusiasm.
As they were not professional gamblers, they never even played with stones before.
They had heard that Tang Bingyun had purchased a batch of raw stones, so they simply wanted to see some gambling stones.
Now, they have seen that a person lost 950,000 yuan in just ten minutes and this was too much money to lose.
Although they were rich, it was their hard earned money.
Looking at the faces of the people around, it seems that no one wanted to play.
In this regard, Tang Bingyun also didn't care.
She was not a gambling house, and she didn't care if others wanted to play or not .
Actually, the raw stones were purchased by her so she could open them by herself.
As the people were just watching, it was also getting boring, so Tang Bingyun was ready to pick a few pieces and open them herself.
"Auntie Tang, I also want to play, I want to open this piece of 600,000 yuan stone." Wang Haoran said while glancing over a few raw stones.
"You also want to play …this…” Tang Bingyun hesitated a little.
"I have the money, I can transfer it to you immediately." Wang Haoran said.
"Auntie is not afraid that you do not have money to give, I’m afraid that you will lose, and does not know how to explain to your mother."
"It's okay, it's all my pocket money. My mom won't say anything about me if I use it." Wang Haoran directly selected a raw stone and took it to cut it.
"Mr. Tang?" The man who was responsible for cutting the stone didn’t immediately do it, but asked.
"Open it." Tang Bingyun said.
She saw the stone which was selected by Wang Haoran was not bad, and even if the loss was not much she wanted to cover up for it instead.
Tang Bingyun didn't want to meet with Zhen Li later and be accused by Zhen Li of cheating her son's pocket money.
Those who were watching the fun, all of a sudden gathered around.
"Hundred thousand yuan for pocket money? Whose family is this boy from?" Someone in the crowd curiously asked Tang Bingyun.
"The son of Wang Xiang of Wang's Group and Zhen Li of Guose Tianxiang Company. "Tang Bingyun responded
“It's no wonder, the sole heir of tens of billions of assets ah!" The surrounding people were stunned.
But soon, they sighed again.
This Wang family's son seems to be a bit of a foolish man with too much money.
Just now someone had already lost 950,000 yuan, and he still wants to open the raw stone.
Under 20 years old, he was already so capable of losing money. if he inherited tens of billions of dollars in assets in the future, it was estimated that it wouldn’t take long to lose it all.
As the crowd lost in their thoughts, the raw stone was almost opened and a piece of transparent impurity-free emerald green jade was revealed .
"Miss. Tang, this jade looks quite beautiful, don’t you think it's worth 600,000 yuan?" Someone next to her asked curiously.
"600,000 yuan? It's worth at least three million yuan!" Tang Bingyun widened her eyes and carefully observed the exposed cut surface of the raw stone.
Because the raw stone had not yet been revealed, the final price couldn’t be judged, but with Tang Bingyun's vision, it was definitely not less than 3 million yuan.
As Tang Bingyun's words fell, the whole room was in an uproar.
They all began to look at Wang Haoran incredulously.
Wang Haoran was actually very calm when he saw the jade inside the raw stone.
However, in order not to attract attention, he pretended to be surprised.
"… Did I manage to earn something?"
"You earned a lot!" Tang Bingyun said.
The master stone opener continued to cut away all the excess parts of the surface of the raw stone, and the jade inside was almost revealed in its entirety.
Tang Bingyun had it weighed and had the factory's professional master identify it, and finally gave a price of 3.5 million yuan.
"Wow. I made 2.9 million yuan." Wang Haoran got excited.
"This is fun, I want to play again!"
Then Wang Haoran "randomly" selected another raw stone.
"This piece of stone costs 3 million yuan, in case it opens a scrap, you not only did not win, but also have to pay 100,000 yuan back to continue, why don’t you replace it with another one.” Tang Bingyun stopped him.
“It's okay, Auntie Tang, this raw stone is either opened by me or by you. If I open it for scrap, it will indirectly save you money. I am also happy if I lose. ”
Wang Haoran put on an innocent expression, and looked as if he was telling the truth.
"Your little mouth is sweet." Tang Bingyun was a little touched.
