Chapter 749 Take the Village Chief to Work

Li Xiaojia looked at Xiao Yi at the moment, with a smile on his face, and he knew that Li Xiaojia had other thoughts in his heart at the moment, so Xiao Yi continued to ask.

"Don't hold back, tell me where I can buy this kind of thing."

"Hey, you are smart, sometimes smarter than a monkey, but when you are stupid, you don't have enough brains. Since you can't buy jade, you can go to the place where jade raw materials are sold, such a big place , there will always be people who open jade, and some people don’t want to continue to open it, so you can just spend money to buy it.”

Xiao Yi stretched out a hand at this moment, and patted his forehead. If it wasn't for what Li Xiaojia said, he would still be in a daze, and was awakened by Li Xiaojia's words.

"How did I forget about this? If you say so, there is a place to gamble with stones in City H?"

"Of course there is a city as big as City H, but it's much smaller in scale. If you go to the southern country, there are more gambling stones there than here."

Gambling stone is a term in the jewelry industry. It means that when the jadeite is mined, it is covered with a layer of weathered skin. It is impossible to know whether it is good or bad. The quality of the jadeite can only be known after cutting.

The early name of the stone gambling is not called stone gambling, but a gambling shop. The first thing a stone gambling master must be is a great challenge ability, second is the adventurous spirit, and third is rich experience. I have seen those who got rich overnight in the stone gambling market, of course, it does not rule out those who went bankrupt overnight.

Li Xiaojia knew that there was such a stone gambling place in H City, and the scale was not too big, but if Xiao Yi wanted to buy jade, he could try his luck here.

Thinking of his own vegetable field, and the urgent need for jade now, Xiao Yi didn't care about ink marks, and took Li Xiaojia's hand and said.

"Do you have anything urgent today?"

"Probably not. Several families in the village have applied for poverty subsidies. I plan to go over and take photos of their homes and then submit the application."

"Okay, let Zhang Bing do these things. You take me to this place where you gamble on stones. I need a batch of jade urgently now."

Xiao Yi said at this moment, seeing Xiao Yi's anxious look, those who didn't know thought it was a fire at home, so Li Xiaojia had no choice but to agree to Xiao Yi.

"If you really need it urgently, I can go with you, but there is one condition, you have to promise me."

"What conditions?"

"The next time you go out for a long time, you must tell me. If you sneak away again, I will dismantle you first when you come back."

Li Xiaojia threatened that her request was very simple, she just wanted Xiao Yi to tell her something, so that she would not worry about it alone.

"Ahem...I got it, next time I will..."

Xiao Yi agreed to the conditions Li Xiaojia said, if he needs to go out next time if he has something to do, he will tell her in advance.

So Xiao Yi and Li Xiaojia, who had just returned to the village, drove away from the village and headed towards City H. On the way, Li Xiaojia and Xiao Yi briefly talked about the place they were going to.

"This betting on stones is not like anything else. Sometimes you can't meet a person who can open jade for a day, so you have to be mentally prepared in advance, maybe we will return without success."

Li Xiaojia has also heard of this industry briefly, and the chance of success in betting on stones is very low. Many people spend a lot of money on it, and the final return is pitiful.

There are also some people who are lucky and spend a small price to open a rare stone, so that they can make a lot of money. The so-called getting rich overnight is talking about gambling on stones.

"At that time, we will decide according to the situation. During the two days I left, did anything happen in the village?"

Xiao Yi asked Li Xiaojia that Anning Bay was the place where he grew up. No matter where he went, Xiao Yi always cared about this small village in his heart.

"No big thing happened, but some people who went out to work. After hearing about your farming, many people chose to come back from outside. Zhang Bing arranged for them to work in the vegetable field. They can make money while watching It is a good thing to benefit the people."

Li Xiaojia said that Xiao Yi's actions this time can be regarded as a great deed to the village, because with jobs in the village, the parents of those left-behind children can come back to accompany their children.

"Actually, it's not a good thing. It's just a win-win cooperation. My vegetable field needs workers, which happens to provide a job opportunity for everyone, and it benefits each other."

"Now your reputation as a person has been spread out. Several nearby villages have set up advanced study groups to learn from your deeds of growing vegetables. Originally, Anning Bay was the poorest village in Beitang County. Now Driven by you, it has become the village with the highest income."

Xiao Yi has no idea about the word income. A better life for the people in the village is better than anything else. This is also Xiao Yi's wish.

The two of them chatted along the way, and the road was not boring at all. After more than two hours, Li Xiaojia drove Xiao Yi with him, and the two of them came to a suburb of H City.

The place to gamble with stones is not in the bustling city center, but in the suburbs. The rent here is relatively cheaper, and it is not a business anyway, so there is no need to be in a bustling area.

A suburb under development. This side is under construction. The people who lived here before have all been moved out due to demolition. Many houses have been demolished and rebuilt. Compared with larger cities, the view here is wider. a lot.

"I thought that this kind of stone gambling place is in the bustling city center. If you open a stall here, you are not afraid that there will be no customers?"

Xiao Yi looked around. There were almost no signs of people's life around here. A few kilometers ahead, he saw a small village that hadn't been demolished yet.

"You're wrong. This stone betting booth is full of customers. There are many people who come to try their luck."

"Is it in this kind of place? People who know that there is a village, but those who don't know think it has been cleaned up. I really don't understand what the rich think."

Li Xiaojia drove at the intersection ahead, and then entered the village. At the entrance of the village, there were a few big willow trees that had gone through many years. It is estimated that four adults might not be able to hug the trunks.

Some of the branches on these big willow trees are alive, while others are withered. The branches look like witch's claws, and they will look more like them at night.

A sewage canal that runs through the entire village is still flowing with domestic sewage. Even with the windows of the car closed, you can still smell the rotten smell from the canal.
