Long Aotian: Record of Stone Gambling
Chapter 1: Finding treasure in desperate situation
In order to collect money for his mother's surgery, Long Aotian wandered around Jiangcheng's stone gambling market. He was tricked by a street vendor into buying a piece of "scrap". When he was on the verge of despair, he unexpectedly awakened his "jade clairvoyance" ability and saw clearly that there were small pieces of ice-type jade inside the stone. After unraveling the stone, he sold it for 100,000 yuan. This temporarily solved his urgent need and started his road to gambling on stones.
Chapter 2: First encounter with a powerful enemy
Long Aotian entered the stone gambling market again and focused on a piece of wool with no green skin. During the bidding process, he was suppressed by jeweler Li Wanshan, who mocked him as "ignorant" based on his years of experience. Long Aotian insisted on bidding, and finally won the price of 50,000 yuan. When he opened the stone, he found a green and waxy jadeite worth millions, which made Li Wanshan remember this young man for the first time.
Chapter 3: Apprenticeship and learning skills
Long Aotian knew that it would be difficult to rely solely on clairvoyance for a long time, so he was introduced to the retired jade carving master Chen Lao. Mr. Chen did not teach him the skills of stone gambling, but only taught him the identification of jade and the history of jade carving. He also warned him to "bet your heart first when gambling on stones." During this period, Long Aotian used clairvoyance to help Mr. Chen find out the shoddy jade in his collection, which was recognized by the master.
Chapter 4: Market Turmoil
A batch of "window opening materials" appeared in the gambling stone market, which appear to be high-quality green on the surface, but are actually artificially dyed and bonded. Many buyers were deceived. Long Aotian used clairvoyance to see through the scam and exposed the vendors' tricks in public, but was threatened by the forces behind the vendors. At the critical moment, Mr. Chen stepped forward to resolve the issue, which also made Long Aotian aware of the undercurrent of the stone gambling circle.
Chapter 5: Stone Gambling Contest (Part 1)
Jiangcheng holds an annual stone betting competition, and the champion will get the opportunity to cooperate with top jewelers. Long Aotian signed up for the competition.
