Return From The Immortal World
Chapter 642: The Extraordinary Talented Person
Tang Xiu took the time to observe the contours of the fat middle-aged man's face. The man did indeed have an innate facial contour of the good fortune from heaven. Although he might not be a super rich person, having a net worth of over a billion would not be a problem.
Song Hao's! It was the name of this fat middle-aged man, an ethnic Miao descendant, who had come out from the Miao Region to seek a livelihood outside the area. He is very intelligent, with enough vision and is outstanding. Through her story, Tang Xiu knew that she became rich overnight over ten years ago and had a fortune worth tens of millions of yuan.
The man, however, was not bewitched by the sudden fall in wealth, and even realized the incredible advantages offered by the jade market afterwards. He began to learn everything about jade, constantly consulted experts on the matter, and continued to persist in the main jade trading market without stopping, he said, and even repeatedly worked in the mine-producing jade. After a few years of gathering all that knowledge, he gradually found a few doors and then began to involve himself in business as an intermediary and as a buyer using his silver tongue and the knowledge he held. He then slowly accumulated wealth and eventually accumulated over a billion net worths at the moment.
"Divine Doctor Tang, gambling on a rock is all about your eyes and eyesight. Luck is only a small part of it. This waterline is very deep, and you should not rush to bet if you do not catch it, ” the fat middle-aged man said in a whisper.
"Don't worry!" Tang Xiu chuckled. “I'm not the kind of guy who is jealous and envious of other people's wealth. My main purpose for coming to this exhibition center was to buy jade, to begin with. I'm not going to waste a lot of money because I've bought from you here. Of course, I would play and buy it if I had a good feeling and the price was not that high. ”
Song Hao was well aware that Tang Xiu was not short on money. After all, he was a famous young heavenly Doctor who could make a lot of money by relying on his outstanding medical expertise. Who has never had a headache at this time? More than that, those super rich people might be willing to spend a lot of money just to seek his medical care if they have some incurable diseases.
After a while, the group then came to the place where the two warehouses were separated, along with a stream of people. Not only does this warehouse have a large number of raw stones, but it also has stone cutters. Hundreds of people gathered near them, and their eyes were now staring at the expertly cutting the stone with a blue canal. To be precise, their eyes were focused on the football-sized stone that was being carried by the expert cutting the stone.
“Young man, you bought this stone for a total of 2,000 yuan. Now that you've cut and happen to be in the green, it shows that you've won. How about you give me this stone for 2 million yuan? ”A well-dressed middle-aged man next to the stone-cutting expert looked at the young man in front and uttered his offer.
“I'll pay 3 million! (5 million!)"
Two voices sounded almost simultaneously as the voice of the well-dressed middle-aged man disappeared. The one who bid 5 million was a young man whose appearance was mediocre but exuded the aura of a higher person. He looked to be around 26-27, and he was accompanied by two people — a young man and a young woman.
The stone owner, the excited young man, looked extremely happy and immediately said as if he was afraid that the bidder would retract his words, “5 million of it. Transfer the money to me now, and I will sell this stone to you. ”
The young man who offered 5 million yuan nodded in satisfaction. He nodded to the young lady beside him and 5 million yuan was quickly transferred to the bank account given by the stone owner.
"Do you want to polish this stone?" Ask the expert on cutting stones.
"Polish only," said the young man who bought the stone without hesitation.
The expert cutting the stone nodded without a word and carefully polished the stone in his hand. Along with his movements, the green color on the stone became more and more vivid, and after a few minutes, the palm-sized green color on the stone appeared by itself before everyone's eyes.
"Wait!"
A voice suddenly rang out amidst the crowd as Tian Jingnan, accompanied by two men, swiftly charged forward. His eyes looked at the young man and smilingly said, “Young man, how about selling this stone to me? Since you have spent 5 million, I am willing to buy it for 10 million yuan. ”
"I'm sorry, but I'm not short of money" the young man said with a smile.
Tian Jingnan's breathing stagnated. After hesitating for a moment, he offered again, “20 million. If you want to sell this stone to me, I'll pay you 20 million yuan. ”
A smile fell on the corner of the young man's mouth, yet he still shook his head and said, “Sorry. I am only interested in gambling on the rock. It does not matter to me whether I will make a big profit or loss because what I really enjoy is the process of cutting stones and polishing them. Sir, please continue! "
With a helpless expression, Tian Jingnan shook his head. He felt like he was really out of luck this year. The stone he had seen before had defeated him, and now that he had discovered that this raw stone might contain good quality jade, the other party was unwilling to sell it anymore.
Amidst the crowd, Tang Xiu stood up without speaking. He quietly covered the stone with perception and secretly regretted the luck that the young man had. That jade material contained jadeite within it, and it was also Emperor Green Jadeite type. The value will be at least nine digits after it is issued.
"Let's go!" Tang Xiu said with a smile as he pulled Long Zhengyu.
Long Zhengyu hesitated. She smiled wryly after realizing that Song Hao was also following Tang Xiu. He stared intently at the young man who bought the jade material first and then chased after Tang Xiu.
"Why are you rushing to pull me back, Tang Xiu?" Asked Long Zhengyu. “We haven't finished watching that good game. ”
“Brogging because of the misfortune of others when they lose in their gamble shows that we are merely stabbing with bad character. If we beat them in a gamble, it would only add to their jealousy and jealousy towards us. Whatever happens is not a good thing — a troublesome thing, I have to say. So why bother? "Tang Xiu said with a light smile.
"You're a paradox, buddy!" Long Zhengyu was confused as to whether he should cry or laugh after hearing this, and then said, "Never. You don't want to watch, then we won't watch! Anyway, do you still want to play? Otherwise, let's take the time to send back this jade. ”
“We call it a day. "Tang Xiu shook his head and smiled lightly.
"What are you going to do next, Tang Xiu?" Long Zhengyu asked who looked rather bored.
"Have a rest at home and let Xiaohan get used to the situation at home before going to the exhibition center again in the afternoon," Tang Xiu replied.
"You're going to the exhibition center again?" Long Zhengyu asked, surprised.
"I had nothing to do, so I probably went there to have fun again. "Tang Xiu shrugged his shoulders. "What about you? What's your plan today? ”
"I'll go home first!" Long Zhengyu said. “In addition, I have to go to the Island of the Nine Dragons a few days later, so I need to take care of some things here in Star City before I leave. Correct . If you meet the young man who bought the stone today, you should be on guard against him. The man ... had high knowledge like some kind of demon. ”
Tang Xiu was dazed for a moment and the appearance of the young man giving off the vibe of a high-class noble appeared inside his head. He then immediately asked, "Who exactly is he?"
"He is Chu Yuan, heir to the Imperial Garden from Shanghai, owner of the Imperial Effulgent Group, and founder of Imperial Wherewithal Ventures," Long Zhengyu replied.
Tang Xiu slightly furrowed his brows. The name "Empire Park" was somehow familiar to him. It seemed like he had heard of it somewhere but could not remember where.
"Is he very resourceful?"
Long Zhengyu was silent for half a minute, then he said weakly, "He is much more resourceful. He's just a very bad guy. The wealth he possessed was comparable to that of a prominent family in the country, and he had an armed army behind him that could make people's hair stand on end. Its influence is not limited to the business world, even within the military … "
Tang Xiu's complexion changed and a ferocious wave rose in his heart. He was well aware of the existence of native prominent families in the country like the Tang and Yao Families. They have a strong heritage and deep roots, along with colossal riches to live in. The armed forces under these families were also very powerful. However, that Chu Yuan was comparable to those true leading families, what exactly did it come from?
While looking at Long Zhengyu deeply, Tang Xiu asked, "Why do I feel like you know him so well?"
"You're wrong. What I know about him is almost negligible. "Long Zhengyu shook his head. “Appearance can be deceiving, and the depth of the sea cannot be measured. The Imperial Garden has been around for hundreds of years, even in the turbulent times of war were deeply affected by it. The four great families in the turbulent wartime were greatly influenced by it. Even in the period, it was too many to count how many outstanding talented people emerged from the Immortal Garden and turned into the War of Resistance heroes .the anti-Japanese War Resistance period , too many to count how many outstanding talented people had emerged from the Eternal Garden and turned into heroes of the War of Resistance. Although the people of the Imperial Garden all left their positions after the end of the Resistance War and disappeared from all walks of life, the Imperial Garden was always the Imperial Garden, the, because it has always been a source of fear and vigilance for those in power from generation to generation. What I know about Chu Yuan is not much, but .. I know too much about the Imperial Garden. ”
In an instant, Tang Xiu seemed to realize the meaning behind Long Zhengyu's explanation. He nodded silently and then said, “So. Go tend to your stuff, then! By the way, let's gather together before you leave for the Island of the Nine Dragons. I have to stay here in Star City in the near future. ”
After complying, Long Zhengyu then left the car for Tang Xiu. Actually, what he explained to Tang Xiu was nothing much, just those words. However, not only did it have an impact on Tang Xiu but on himself as well. He originally did not want to mention this "Chu Yuan" name, because Chu Yuan was actually his goal, target and goal that he had fought for all his life.
The villa courtyard.
Gu Yin, whose face was curious, observed Tang Xiaohan who was quietly standing at the side. She wanted to talk to him, but was worried that Tang Xiaohan was someone who was not easy to get along with.
Finally, Tang Xiu's eyes fell on Tang Xiaohan after Long Zhengyu left. He turned around and waved to Gu Yin and then smilingly said, "Yinyin, come here, I will introduce you to him. Her name is Tang Xiaohan. You can call him junior brother or Xiaohan. ”
Gu Yin stepped forward. After nodding sweetly in response, she extended her hand to Tang Xiaohan. But when he realized that Tang Xiaohan's eyes could not see, he immediately grabbed her hand and said, “Halo, junior brother. I'm your senior brother, Gu Yin. I'll have to be older than you, but only a few years at most. ”
Suddenly Tang Xiaohan smiled and replied, “Hai, senior brother. Are we ... will we be a family later? "
Gu Yin looked up to see Tang Xiu. Seeing the latter slightly nod at him, he immediately said with a smile, “We will be family later, junior brother. Acknowledging Master for a day meant that he was the father for life. We are all teachers' children. ”
“A teacher for a day is a father for life. ”
Inwardly, Tang Xiaohan read out this sentence silently for several dozen times. Only then did he nod firmly and say, “I'm so happy. I have family members, more than that, I have two now. ”
"What you said is not true, junior brother," Gu Yin said with a smile. “There are not only two family members. You will have many family members in the future. ”
