Chapter 1145 Don’t waste your money!
Zhao’s Jade Shop was like Zhao Xu’s second home. As soon as the car stopped, someone came forward and opened the door.
"Brother, please."
Zhao Xu got out of the car and opened the passenger door himself. After Zhang Ruoling got out of the car, Zhao Xu invited him to come in first.
The waiter next to him was so embarrassed that he didn't know where to put his hands.
Is this still the proud young master of their family? Why is he acting like a little brother?
For a moment, everyone was curious about Zhang Ruoling's identity.
But Zhao Xu had no intention of explaining and went straight into the store with Zhang Ruoling.
Zhao Xu said that Zhao's Jade Shop would definitely satisfy Zhang Ruoling, and he was not exaggerating. As soon as he came in, he saw that the area of the lobby on the first floor alone was over 500 square meters, and the glass counters were filled with exquisitely carved jade pendants and jade ornaments.
If you walk a few steps further inside, you can see some individual glass cabinets. Those are the works of well-known carving masters, and their value and worth are worth storing separately.
However, although each of these jades was exquisite and eye-catching, Zhang Ruoling took a general glance and felt slightly disappointed.
"Brother, don't be disappointed. The people on this floor are just ordinary people who don't know what's good. The real good stuff is on the second floor."
Seeing Zhang Ruoling disappointed, Zhao Xu not only did not feel annoyed, but he admired him in his heart. The former was indeed not easy to fool. However, the more powerful he was, the happier he was.
"Then let's go up and have a look."
Zhang Ruoling turned and went up the stairs.
It is indeed as Zhao Xu said, the quality of the jade on the second floor is not good, and of course, the price has also increased several times.
It’s a pity that after looking through the entire floor, Zhang Ruoling only found two or three pieces of jade with spiritual energy, and the spiritual energy was very little, almost equivalent to none.
"Can we go up to the third floor and take a look?" Zhang Ruoling saw a sign saying "No Trespassing" hanging on the stairs leading to the third floor, so he turned around and asked Zhao Xu.
Zhao Xu was stunned when he heard this, "Is there nothing on the second floor that I like?" Generally speaking, the first and second floors of Zhao's Jade Shop can already meet the needs of most people. Even some knowledgeable people will show a satisfied expression when they go to the second floor.
But in fact, Zhao’s Jade Shop also has a third floor.
The jade on the third floor is extremely expensive, and it is specially used to receive wealthy people, jade masters and the like.
At this moment, Zhao Xu couldn't help but think, could it be that Zhang Ruoling is not only a master of medical skills, but also a jade expert?
After thinking for a while, Zhao Xu rushed to speak before Zhang Ruoling could say, "Since none of these are to my liking, let's go to the third floor. I promise that no matter what you want, the things on the third floor of my house will definitely satisfy you~.
Having said that, Zhao Xu hurried forward to lead the way.
Went up to the third floor.
The space on the third floor is smaller than that on the first and second floors, but it is also spacious.
As soon as Zhang Ruoling came up, he felt the spiritual energy, which was much richer than that on the second floor.
Seeing Zhang Ruoling walking quickly towards a counter, Zhao Xu felt relieved.
Although the jade on the third floor was very expensive, even Zhao Xu felt painful to use it to win over Zhang Ruoling. But when he thought of that bitch Chen Meng, he gritted his teeth and hypnotized himself that as long as he could coax Zhang Ruoling, he would not have to worry about getting sick in the future.
There were many spiritual jades on the third floor. Zhang Ruoling looked at them one by one. Every time he saw the zero after the number on the price tag, he felt that it was a sad story.
One million and one hundred thousand can't even buy a scrap on the third floor.
"Didn't you say that you had new materials at home? Do you have any raw stones? I want to mine the raw stones."
If it is a raw stone, the price can be brought down.
This way, if you save a little bit out of one million, you can make two or three dollars.
Zhang Ruoling thought so.
Hearing this, Zhao Xu coughed twice, "Brother, still haven't seen anything you like? Are you planning to gamble on stones?"
"I have one I like, but it's too expensive. It would be better if it were a rough stone." Zhang Ruoling said, "I know you want to give it to me, but I haven't treated your illness yet, so I won't accept it without merit."
Listening to Zhang Ruoling's straightforward words, Zhao Xu couldn't help but feel moved.
In the past, everyone Zhao Xu wanted to make friends with wanted to skin him alive. This was the first time he met someone like Zhang Ruoling who clearly distinguished between public and private affairs.
Although reason told Zhao Xu that he should give in and let Zhang Ruoling pay the bill, emotionally, Zhao Xu could see that Zhang Ruoling's words were irrefutable.
"Okay, then come with me."
Zhao Xu finally decided to respect Zhang Ruoling.
The reason why the third floor is narrower than the first and second floors is that the floor is divided into two parts, one side is the finished products and the other side is the raw materials.
Some people like the thrill of gambling on stones, some are purely confident, and some just want to take a chance... In short, with millions of ideas coming together, almost all jade shops will keep a batch of raw stones when purchasing, for people to use for gambling on stones.
When we entered the raw stone area, we saw quite a few people already picking out materials.
Zhao Xu raised his eyebrows, called the waiter and asked, "Why are there so many people today?"
"Young Master, today Master Hua, the jade master, is here to practice selecting materials. All of these people are here hoping to get Master Hua's guidance."
The waiter next to him cleared up Zhao Xu's confusion.
When Zhao Xu heard that Mr. Hua was coming, his eyes lit up.
Mr. Hua is a well-known jade master with a particularly accurate eye for raw stones. When some mines are mining, they will invite him to take a look. Of course, whether he can be hired is another matter.
But as a person in the jade industry, Zhao Xu also hoped to get close to such a master for a moment, even if it was just to make the master laugh. Then Zhao's Jade Business would also be in the spotlight.
Moreover, it would be great if I could get some guidance from Mr. Hua.
So, even though Zhang Ruoling was next to him, Zhao Xu couldn't help but glance towards the crowd.
Seeing this, Zhang Ruoling said, "If you have something to do, go ahead and do it. I'll just take a look around."
"This, this is not good..."
"It's okay. I'm not used to being followed."
Zhang Ruoling said so, so Zhao Xu went down the stairs, but he still reminded him, "I'll go over there for a minute. If you like anything, just ask the waiter next to you. If anyone gives you a hard time, just tell me my name, or come find me."
After saying that, Zhao Xu hurriedly ran towards the crowd.
Zhang Ruoling ignored the noise from the crowd and just watched by himself.
The raw stones placed in the glass cabinets have all been cleaned and estimated by people in the jade business. The better the skin of the stone, the higher the price.
After taking a few glances, Zhang Ruoling turned and went to the raw materials.
Over there is a pile of disorganized stones, all of which are new and have not been cleaned up yet. The price is very uniform, one hundred thousand yuan per piece.
Zhang Ruoling found a palm-sized stone from the raw material stone pestle. The surface of the stone was a little moist and had cracks, but judging from the richness of the spiritual energy, it was the highest noon on this floor.
Take it and Zhang Ruoling will pay.
Just then, a voice behind him stopped him.
"Little brother, you are so young and this is your first time gambling on stones. Listen to me. The piece you have is not good. Don't waste your money."
