Setting Out
The next day, Qin Hao slept until nine o'clock. He went to the jade market in Lian City to see if he could pick up any scraps.
Two million might seem like a lot, but other people would charge four to five million for a car and millions for a house.
Moreover, the poor played with cars and the rich played with watches!
Watches were even more expensive, and he was just starting out.
After leaving the hotel, Qin Hao made a call and headed to the jade market in Lian City.
The jade market in Lian City was naturally not as developed as other places, so it could only be considered a small one.
There were no experienced masters here, and most of the raw gemstones could not be cut into anything good. However, occasionally, they could still earn a few million.
Yun Cheng was the best place to go if he really wanted to gamble on stones. There were all kinds of top-grade stones from Myanmar and old masters who had been immersed in them for many years.
There were all kinds of shops and auction houses, and all the major jewelry merchants had their permanent residence.
Many big bosses and gamblers would go there to look for excitement. There were many people who wanted to make a comeback.
One knife poor, one knife rich, it was spread from inside.
Looking at the scenery speeding by the roadside, Qin Hao's heart unconsciously floated. All of this was like a dream.
If it weren't for the bank card in his pocket reminding him, he wouldn't have believed that he had gone from a poor university student to a millionaire in less than a day.
The driver was a middle-aged man. He glanced at the rearview mirror and chuckled.
"Young man, the jade market is very chaotic. Many things are fake. What are you going there for?”
"It's fine. I'll just go take a look and gain some experience.”Qin Hao replied with a smile.
The uncle was a little surprised and advised again,"Then you might as well go to the antique market. There are more opportunities to make a fortune there.”
"Just yesterday, a young man succeeded in picking up the loot. I heard that he sold it for a lot of money. Today, the traffic there has doubled.”
"If I wasn't old and didn't pay attention to stability, I would have given it a try. I really envy that young man.”
"Uncle, what did that young man buy?" Qin Hao's expression changed.”
The uncle thought for a moment." It's said to be an incense burner. The people there now touch the incense burner twice when they see it."”
"Alright, we're here."
While they were talking, they arrived at the jade market.
"Thank you." Qin Hao waved at the driver.”
"It's okay. Remember to give it a five-star review.”
Watching the car disappear before his eyes, Qin Hao muttered softly,""That person seems to be me?"
"But most of the items in the antique market were appraised yesterday. How could they be picked up?”
Shaking his head, he walked into the jade market. He looked around and appraised the jade in his heart.
Unfortunately, most of the stones here were stones, and some of them were pieced together.
Suddenly, an appraisal result flashed across Qin Hao's eyes.
----
[Item: Yellow Sand Stone]
[Purchasing price: 1000 yuan]
[Selling price: 3000 yuan]
[Description: Jadeite mixed with stone, low price]
This was the only valuable stone he found along the way. The rest were all stones.
Qin Hao subconsciously stopped in front of the stall. The stall owner was a fat man. When he saw someone looking at the stone, he stood up slightly.
"Which stone does the shop owner like? All the stones purchased in this shop can be dissected for free.”
"How much is that stone?" Qin Hao pointed at the yellow sand-skinned stone.
Fatty took a look and praised," Boss, you have good eyesight. That stone is the most expensive one here. The higher the price, the higher the possibility of green."”
As he spoke, he raised his palm and waved his fat fingers."20,000. No bargaining.”
Qin Hao shook his head speechlessly and got up to leave. If he bought it, wouldn't he lose 17,000 yuan? Moreover, the answer given by the appraisal art was different.
Unless there was a special reason, he would never do such a money-losing business.
When Fatty saw the customer leave, he quickly shouted from behind,"If it doesn't work, we can still discuss it, boss! Boss?"
Qin Hao rolled his eyes.”
However, it would be a waste of his time to argue with the boss just to earn that 2000 yuan.
He continued to walk around the market, using appraisal techniques without any cost.
After looking at nearly half of the stalls, Qin Hao frowned. This place was comparable to the antique market.
He even suspected that someone had fished up stones and sold them here, except for the green stone he saw at Fatty's place.
There were no green stones. Some of the stones were artificially synthesized.
After looking at all the stalls, Qin Wu shook his head slightly. He was very disappointed. It seemed that there was no hope for this trip.
He still had to go to those big cities. Lotus City was not enough for him to display his skills, and there was no such environment.
The scene of him shaking his head was coincidentally seen by the fatty who was passing by. His heart skipped a beat.
"Isn't this the boss from just now? It seems that he doesn't care about the things on this stall. Could it be that he has real ability?”
"Boss, you don't seem to be satisfied with this place." Is there no good stuff?"
"Hmm? You're the fat stall owner from before. What are you trying to say?”
"Hehe." Fatty smiled." This is the outer area. Of course, there aren't many good stones. There's also a high-level arena inside!" There was a high probability of stone being cut out there!”
"I can bring you in, but the stones you cut out will be sold to me first!”
Qin Hao nodded. After all, it was his first time here, so there were many things he didn't know. He could accept the other party's conditions.
"Where is that place?"”
"I'll take you there. This way," Fatty said with a smile.”
Qin Hao walked slowly behind them and realized that the so-called high-end market was in a big house two streets away from Jade Street.
The house was very big, and there were security guards at the entrance. It was very lively.
However, some people had excitement in their eyes and could not suppress their smiles. Some people had heavy thoughts and their eyes were drifting.
Fatty brought Qin Hao in.
The inside and outside were like two different worlds. In the wide hall, there were many stalls.
There were shops that specialized in cutting stones, shops that were currently restocking, and shops that rented professional stone testing equipment.
Under the light from the top floor, all kinds of raw gemstones were set off, and the ground was shining with a golden light.
The peddlers placed their stones in a conspicuous position and shouted loudly. There was no rule of quiet trading here.
All kinds of voices rang out in an endless stream, entering Fatty and Qin Wu's ears.
"Open the window and let the green shine. The highest bidder wins."
"New stones have been shipped from Myanmar. The master has identified them as good goods. Don't miss them.”
"30 catties of python pattern stone, priced at 1 million.”
......
...
Seeing this scene, Qin Hao sighed. This stone market was not simple.
If Fatty hadn't brought him here this time, who knew how long it would have taken him to find out about this place.
The stones here were expensive, but the people who came in to cut stones were also rich. Only here could they satisfy them. The market outside was just a small one.
After a rough look, Qin Wu began to walk between the shops. Fatty followed behind him the whole time.
The data that only he could see was presented in front of him, and he scanned it one by one.

Qin Hao stopped in front of the Shar-Pei Stone, but he turned around and left after taking a look at the price tag of 500,000.
This trip was simply an eye-opener.
It was no wonder that in the end, only a few people made a fortune. The merchants were the ones who made the most money.
As the number of people who knew about the stone skin increased, the merchants would also secretly do something. It would be very difficult to pick up anything here.
Fatty, who was following behind Qin Hao, saw that he had not made a move. He went forward and whispered,"Boss, my shop is not far away. Do you want to go there and take a look?”
"Alright, then you lead the way." Qin Hao thought for a moment and agreed.
Anyway, it was the same wherever he went. Since the other party brought him in, he had to give him some face.
Not long after, Fatty invited Qin Hao to a shop with a smile.
There were still some customers in the shop checking the stones, but none of them asked about the price.
"Boss, please come in. This is my territory in the inner field. I can just play around outside and it's suitable for beginners.”
"I have materials here. Boss, what do you think of this stone? There were inverted dragon scales on it, but it didn't seem like it. There was definitely something good inside!”
"Look at the piece next to it. The tiger pattern and python belt fly together, hiding a sharp edge. It's also a rare fine product.”
Qin Hao was unmoved by Fatty's bragging. He chuckled in his heart and then muttered," Appraisal."
----
[Item: Brown Stone]
[Purchasing price: 80000 yuan]
[Selling price: 0]
[Description: Dragon scales are man-made carvings, waste!]
----
[Item: Tiger Stripe Stone]
[Purchasing price: 150000 yuan]
[Selling price: 100000 yuan]
[Description: Inside contains tiny ice jade]
After looking at these two kinds of stones, Qin Hao knew that this fatty wanted to scam him because the value of these two stones was ten times different from the selling price. He immediately ignored the fatty and looked around himself.
Thinking about it, it made sense. This was the first time the two of them had met and there was no benefit to be gained from it. Since she was so good to him, she must have some ulterior motive.
