C374 Ocular margin

This rugged mountain road that led to Stone Gambling Venue wasn't very long, it was only about three to four kilometers away.

However, Ye Qian had always been curious as to why the Yunnan would arrange this kind of large-scale gathering place on top of a mountain peak. This kind of place where famous people would gather on such a large scale, wasn't it more reasonable and rational to place it at the foot of the mountain?

"Xiao Ya, do you know why the Yunnan was placed at the top of the mountain and not at the bottom?" Ye Qian still could not suppress the curiosity in his heart, and asked the little girl called Xiao Ya beside him.

Xiao Ya tilted her head, thought and said: "This mountain is originally called Cuiping Mountain. It was said that the officials of the Yunnan started construction in the last year to develop the tourism economy here, and built a set of Stone Gambling Venue on the mountain! "

"Last year?" Ye Qian turned his head to the side and looked at Liu Mingmei: "So beautiful, weren't the previous years' Stone Gambling Venue here?"

Liu Mingmei smiled and nodded: "Yes, the Stone Gambling Venue from last year is not here. Instead, it's in a small town called Sichuan, which is located more than a hundred kilometers to the south of the Yunnan. I don't know what's going on this year, but the authorities suddenly released information that transferred the Stone Gambling Venue here! "

Pausing, Liu Mingmei continued: "Perhaps it is just as Xiao Ya said, for the sake of developing this area's tourism economy! After all, in Yunnan, other than the ores, only the tourism industry was slightly better. Furthermore, to create a Stone Gambling Venue on a mountain, that would be extremely beneficial! "

It was obvious that under Liu Mingmei's explanation, the local officials of Yunnan had seized this opportunity to take advantage of Liu Mingmei's situation and amass private funds.

However, to Ye Qian, it looked even more strange.

Even if we have to develop our tourism industry, even if we have to make ends meet, isn't it fine to just pick a random place near the Green Mountain where we can build our stone gambling venues?" Why must it be built on a mountain? Furthermore, the ore weighed at least a thousand pounds or at least a hundred pounds. It would take a lot of effort and effort to bring these things up the mountain. The local officials could not even think of such a thing!

No matter how he thought about it, Ye Qian still felt that this matter was extremely strange, but he couldn't come to a conclusion based on it.

Along the way, not long after, Ye Qian and his group saw a building that took up quite a bit of space on the mountain peak.

Although it couldn't be said to be towering like the clouds, it was definitely magnificent.

Following the stream of people, the group of people quickly entered Stone Gambling Venue. There were security guards in the vicinity of the venue. Only after showing their identification cards would they be able to safely enter the venue.

After entering the auction house, Ye Qian looked around. The huge venue was divided into three parts. At the center, there were many stalls arranged in a neat row. All of them were filled with smiles as they looked at the people coming and going. Pieces of ore were arranged neatly in the center of the booth as if in order.

"Ye Qian, this is the free trade area. Buyers who failed to purchase Marker Stone in the Stone Gambling Venue would all come here to try their luck. "Although the ores here are not the real Myanmar's old pit, their quality is still good!" Liu Mingmei explained to Ye Qian and introduced him.

Ye Qian nodded and replied.

Immediately after, Ye Qian released all of his consciousness out, revolving crazily, sensing the spirit qi seeping out from the various ores. Laughing, Ye Qian thought to himself: It seems like the spirit qi here is much better than Qing Yuan's!

Although Ye Qian had already entered the Dao Seeking Stage, and the Tao technique in his body was revolving, and the Spirit Qi could sell by itself, but his dantian continued to spin frantically, absorbing the Spirit Qi from the Stone Gambling Venue.

It was as if he had picked up a peach. He didn't want money, so of course he didn't want it for nothing.

Once again, Liu Mingmei raised her hand and said to a building at the east side of the free trade area: "Over there is the location of the Marker Stone. Presumably, all the big sellers that have ideas about the Marker Stone have already entered, let's observe the appearance of the Marker Stone closer!"

"What about the one on the west side? What kind of place is it?" Ye Qian continued to ask.

"The west side is the bidding room, and it's also the resting room of many big sellers!" Liu Mingmei said, and then looked at Ye Qian: "Ye Qian, we're going to take a look at the Marker Stone later, do you want to go with us, or do you want to stay and play around in the free trade area?!"

It was obvious that Liu Mingmei was a very assertive person. Even though she knew about Ye Qian's talent in gambling, she did not want Ye Qian's views to dictate the direction of her group's Stone Gambling Assembly this time around. Since all the plans and preparations had been made, Liu Mingmei would strictly execute them in that direction. This could also be considered as Liu Mingmei's obsession with work!

Therefore, when Liu Mingmei said this to Ye Qian, he had a slightly apologetic expression.

Ye Qian was clever, and immediately understood what Liu Mingmei meant, and immediately said: "I will not be looking at those Marker Stone, since there are too many people fighting over them, there is no point. Just leave the little girl Xiao Ya to me. This place is too big. I'm afraid that I'll get lost and leave a small tour guide by my side. I don't need to worry! "

Liu Mingmei nodded, and smiled sweetly at Ye Qian: "Then, you can take a stroll yourself. I'll call you over at lunch time!"

After saying that, Liu Mingmei walked towards the room where the Marker Stone was without even turning her head around.

Looking at Liu Mingmei's back figure from afar, Ye Qian said with a bland smile, "What a lightning-fast woman. But a woman who works wholeheartedly is really quite handsome! "

"Hehe, big brother, do you like big sister Liu?" Xiao Ya smiled mischievously, and asked Ye Qian.

Although it had only been an hour or so since he had interacted with Ye Qian, it seemed as if Ye Qian had a very intimate power. This made Xiao Ya, who was beside him, feel very comfortable, and was very willing to be together with him. Furthermore, being with him gave her an inexplicable sense of security.

Ye Qian heard Xiao Ya's teasing, and immediately pinched the tip of her nose: "Kids, what do you mean like it or not! "Truly a small fry!"

Xiao Ya stuck out her tongue in dissatisfaction: "Hmph, I am already fourteen years old, and big brother is only four years older than me."

Ye Qian stared blankly, then asked curiously: "How do you know how old I am?"

"Hehe, it's written on your ID card. I took a glance at it when you were paying!"

Ye Qian laughed: "Little ghost spirit!"

After laughing, Ye Qian looked at Xiao Ya in a bored manner: "Xiao Ya, your Sister Liu has gone to work already, only the two of us are left. What do you think we should do now?"

Xiao Ya scratched her head and said: "Hehe, big brother, coming to Stone Gambling Venue is obviously to bet on stones, what else can I do!"

Ye Qian thought for a while, then laughed: "That's true! This crappy place doesn't even have any fun gambling rocks! "

In truth, Ye Qian did not have much passion towards the thing called rock gambling. After all, other people would find it hard to break jade, and he would even know which rock had jade with his eyes closed, thus it would not be interesting if he knew his trump card.

Xiao Ya, the little tour guide, could be considered competent. She pulled Ye Qian around the free trade area twice, and then arrived in front of a stone gambling booth.

"Uncle Hu, Uncle Hu …" Seeing the shopkeeper in front of him, Xiao Ya immediately shouted.

Ye Qian lifted his head and saw a simple and honest middle-aged uncle walk over from the side of the booth. He was stunned for a moment, then looked at Xiao Ya and hurriedly smiled.

"It's Xiao Ya, you weird girl. Have you sold all the ores uncle gave you? Why are you here so early? " As she said that, the simple and honest middle-aged man pulled Xiao Ya to her side, and asked carefully and nervously: "Xiao Ya, did those people below bully you? Tell your uncle that your uncle will help you take revenge. "

Xiao Ya immediately replied: "Uncle Hu, there's no more! That Fructus Flaviae wanted to bully me, but he was beaten away by his big brother. Furthermore, big brother bought all the ores in my hands! So now that I'm free and have nothing else to do, I came to take a look! "

Only then did the middle-aged uncle look towards Ye Qian. Seeing that Ye Qian was handsome and righteous, to the point that he did not seem to be some evil person who was trying to trick a little girl, he calmed down a little.

"Young man, thank you for helping my poor niece out. But I see that you are extremely nervous, is this your first time here at the Yunnan? " The Old Hu politely handed over a cigarette to Ye Qian.

"Hehe, this is my first time here. I came with a few friends. It's just to watch and play! " Ye Qian received the cigarette, and said casually.

At this moment, Xiao Ya pulled on Ye Qian's sleeves and said, "Big brother, big brother, didn't you want to buy ores? My Uncle Hu's ores are the best here. "Big brother, if you choose one, how about I, Uncle Hu, give you a discount?"

Ye Qian said in a doting tone, "Heh heh, you little girl, are you trying to be a guide for me and a Yellow Ox at the same time?"

Xiao Ya knew that Ye Qian was only joking, he was not angry, but he stuck out his tongue, looking embarrassed.

However, Old Hu was not happy. "Young lad, you can't say that to me. Xiao Ya is such a nice girl, she often helps me out, but how can you call her Yellow Ox? I don't like what you're saying. "

Ye Qian was speechless for a while, and didn't know whether to laugh or cry as he looked at Old Hu, who was still seriously explaining.

At the same time, Xiao Ya said: "Uncle Hu, you are too sincere. Big brother is just joking with me, how could you take it as true?"

Old Hu was startled, but immediately followed with a chuckle. He then hurriedly changed the topic and said: "Young lad, I am a man who speaks frankly, don't take it to heart."

Old Hu continued: "Young lad, you are not bad, and you have even helped my niece. How about this, you choose any ore from my stall and look around. My Old Hu will not say anything good, since you have already chosen my Old Hu, then I will give you the lowest discount! "

When Ye Qian saw how enthusiastic the other party was, he felt that it would be embarrassing not to buy two raw stones, so he simply chose from Old Hu's stall.

Looking to the left and right, Ye Qian chose a fist-sized ore, and said: "Looks like I'll take this piece then!"

When Old Hu saw Ye Qian's method of picking ores, he immediately knew that Ye Qian was a novice, and didn't understand anything at all. "Lad, are you sure you want this piece? "To be honest, this piece of property does not look too good!"

Ye Qian laughed in his heart, and said: This Old Hu is really a sincere person! What about the business that goes to the mouth?

However, Ye Qian didn't plan to put the ore down when he was holding it in his hand, and lightly laughed: "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter whether the quality is good or not, I'll just choose the ore because I want to see, and once I close my eyes, I'll buy it.

Old Hu was startled and said helplessly in his heart: Those who come here to gamble mostly carry a bit of a gamble, as they have the mindset of wanting to become rich overnight. In all these years, I have never seen anyone picking ores to look at. This young man is truly strange.

"Well, Boss Hu, how much are you going to pay for this piece?"

Old Hu didn't even need to go on the scale, he directly said: "Originally this piece of five thousand, but I will give you the lowest discount, how about three thousand?"

Ye Qian was also straightforward: "Alright, deal!" Ye Qian said as he took out his money.

But just as Ye Qian was about to extend his hand, a voice came from behind: "Young man, let's talk this over. Can you sell me the ore in your hand?"

Hearing that, Old Hu was surprised, but he did not understand: "Did we see a ghost today? This piece of Shrek Plains Stone, with such poor quality, actually became a popular item, and there are even people fighting over it, it is simply incomprehensible!"
