Volume 1: The Journey of the Emerald Rough Chapter 95: The Rogue Window on the Emerald Rough
"Huh?!"
Chen Song and Yang Hao didn't expect Liu Yiyan to say this at all.
looked at Liu in surprise for a while.
Yang Hao asked with some disappointment, "Then master, when will you teach us?"
Liu glanced at the two who were slightly lost, and said with a smile: "Ringworm is very complicated, it is difficult to explain clearly, I can only teach you while looking at the original stone, now you haven't even learned the basics, don't be too anxious!"
Chen Song and Yang Hao immediately understood what Liu Yiyan meant!
This meal has to be eaten in one bite, the road has to be walked step by step, and it must be a good thing to be in a hurry!
Just like building a house, the foundation has not yet been laid, so the floor is built, and the quality of the completed building can be good!
"Next, let's teach you how to look at the fog first!"
Liu Yiyan smiled slightly and said, "The fog is very mysterious, it usually comes out in winter, but not in summer. β
β......β
β......β
Chen Song and Yang Hao looked at Liu speechlessly.
Does this have anything to do with the fog on the jadeite?
didn't know what Liu Yiyan wanted to express for a while, so the two had to listen helplessly.
"And the fog on the jadeite rough, we call it macro locally, the early Chinese people who played the jadeite rough in western China named the fog, which vividly illustrates that the jadeite rough stone in the internal and external power of the change, different rough stones, its appearance of the performance is not the same! Fog is a layer of foggy opaque material that exists between the outer weathered crust and the inner jadeite, which is actually the result of the degeneration of jadeite minerals, due to the decrease in temperature and the increase of pressure, the primary secondary minerals are wrapped in the outside of jadeite rock, and the central part of the formation is the jadeite rock outside is a secondary mineral layer, and the outermost layer is the pattern of weathered crust. β
Liu stopped at a glance, looked at the two of them, and said: "All in all, the fog refers to a semi-oxidized slightly weathered jadeite between the weathered or oxidized skin on the jadeite rough and the inside of the jadeite unweathered or oxidized rough or jade flesh. β
Chen Song and Yang Hao hurriedly wrote it down quickly in their notebooks.
"The old jadeite field is divided into two kinds of fog jade and fog-free jade, probably evenly divided into half, many laymen say that only the stone of the old field has fog, it is inaccurate, the fog is very mysterious, the foggy jadeite according to the fog to determine the texture of the rough stone, the fogless jadeite according to the part that replaces the fog to determine the texture of the original stone. β
After seeing that both of them wrote, Liu Yiyan said: "The foggy jadeite has an extra layer of determining and controlling factors, it must be a good sand hair plus a good fog, the bottom will be good, if the sand is good, the fog is not good, the bottom is also failing, if the sand on the weathered shell is not good, the fog is not good, the bottom is generally shit, which means that it is like shit, useless!"
Liu paused for a moment, thought for a while, and then continued: "But there is a special case of fog, that is, the skin runner, that is, the inner skin runs to the outer skin, if you find the phenomenon of running skin, I will tell you today, its flesh must be the bottom ash!"
Chen Song raised his head and asked, "Master Liu, since there is a situation of running skin, will there be fog in some places and no fog in some places on the same rough stone?"
"That's the case!"
Liu looked at Chen Song with appreciation, and said: "What you said is a special situation, that is, the fog cover is not round, the bottom covered by the good fog is good, and the bottom is poor where the fog cover is not reached, indicating that this jade gradually transitions from the bottom of the fog to the bottom of the good one, half is good and half is not good, and the middle is gradually getting better and worse, if you see this kind of jade rough, you have to pay attention, otherwise it will be difficult to judge!"
"It's hard to judge if you're not careful?" Master Liu means ......"
Chen Song's heart moved.
Liu Yiyan said directly: "It means...... If this kind of rough stone is a first-hand material from the mining area, it can be judged directly according to the performance, if it is seen in the hands of jade merchants, then you have to pay attention, especially if you wipe the skin, because the place where you wipe the skin is to show the best performance of the rough stone, in order to increase the appearance, and at the same time can reduce your own risk, let people imagine for themselves, to extend its value. β
"Aren't these jade merchants misleading?"
Yang Hao said very dissatisfied.
"How can you say that there is such a suspicion......
Liu Yan pondered a little, and then said: "Actually, it's all because they don't dare to unravel the jade rough, and they want to make some money, and they come up with the method, after all, if they don't make some better performance than the original, they may lose money when they change hands, in fact, this is not bad, those who open the rogue window are really misleading!"
Chen Song asked curiously, "Where did the rogue window come from?"
Liu didn't answer at a glance, but asked, "Do you know what the window of the jadeite rough is?"
Seeing the two of them shaking their heads, Liu Yiyan asked again, "Then do you know how to check the inside of the jadeite rough?"
Yang Hao replied: "It is mainly achieved through three methods: rubbing, cutting, and grinding. β
"That's right, rubbing stones is an ancient law, it works well and is safe!"
Liu Yiyan said: "The main thing to wipe the stone is to look at the fog, water, bottom and color. Because with the wipe, you can look inside to judge the depth and width of the green, and avoid the location is not accurate, so you can cut it with the knife, resulting in blind movement to untie the green, which is easy to collapse! And this window is evolved from rubbing the stone, rubbing a small hole on the jadeite rough, in order to spy on the texture of the jadeite rough, you can judge the basic quality of the jadeite rough by opening the window of the jadeite rough, generally speaking, a good species, the window does not need too much modification, you can achieve a good effect, and you don't have to worry too much about anything, in a place homeopathic knife or wipe open, as long as it is not a knife in half, or partial, then even if the window is not a solution. β
Yang Hao was puzzled: "Since the windows have been opened, you can already see the inside of the rough stone, why don't you cut it directly, but sell it to others?"
This is the essence of human nature, and it has nothing to do with the quality of the stone, the meaning of opening the window on the rough stone is similar to peeping, open a small hole to peek at whether there is a treasure inside, if there is a treasure inside, then continue to expand the window, when it is as big as nine out of ten to solve the rise, it will not hesitate to click a knife!"
Liu Yiyan raised his palm, made a downward gesture, and said at the same time: "There is no end to desire, if you see that the window opening position is very good, but you can stop it, then there is only one reason, that is, you know that the possibility of not making money is too great!"
Chen Song and Yang Hao were a little dumbfounded.
In fact, this matter can really be found from the root!
People are greedy, and fear is also human nature, and this fear gene has not been passed down in people's genes for thousands of generations.
"Especially in recent years, the knowledge of opening windows on jadeite rough stones has been no longer so pure, and the rapid development of the industry has made many laymen begin to contact jadeite rough stones one after another, so many jade merchants have taken advantage of the inaccuracy of laymen on jadeite rough stones in the pursuit of profits, and began to beautify the visual effect of opening windows on jadeite rough stones to improve the appearance of jadeite roughs, so the rogue windows on jadeite rough stones came out!"
Liu Yan sighed: " Merchants use all techniques to make the window as beautiful as a flower, so as to improve the appearance, cover up the fault, this technique is also varied, in the jade world, there are special masters who clean the windows, they do nothing and do not solve the material, specifically responsible for helping others to clean the window, especially high goods, others hold the stone, the master to take a look, feel that it can be wiped, quote a price, as long as the owner thinks it is appropriate, it will be handed over to the master to wipe, especially the pigment and high water, wipe the window color Yang is good, or high ice no cotton, do not understand the novice, or less than a certain realm, a knife down, it is likely to be directly bloodlessοΌβ
"This rogue window is so terrifying?"
Chen Song and Yang Hao were shocked.
"It's not just terrifying, it's just harmful!"
Liu Yan snorted: "In the past, the purpose of opening the window was to enable people to judge the performance of the internal species, water, color, ground, cotton, cracks, ringworm, and fog of the jadeite rough through the performance of the window, and to make a value judgment on the internal jade meat. The performance of the land, interfering with judgment, in order to enhance the value of the jadeite rough, these jade merchants can often rely on their rich experience to find the best texture of the area, cut off the skin, revealing excellent performance to enhance the appearance, so as to attract customers to buy, this hooligan window even connoisseurs often suffer, not so much the level of jade technology, but rather luck and experience is not enough!"
"How much does this rogue window do?
Chen Song and Yang Hao looked surprised.
By opening a number of small windows to avoid large cracks, the weathered shell can be seen on the large cracks in the window between the window and the lattice position, when the light can not be clearly seen, giving people a visual error, the other is to open a large window, through artificial polishing of the window uneven, or polishing to imitate the natural jadeite rough skin on the lines, in order to cover up the small cracks. β
"There is also a way to open a small window or use a steel brush to brush the looming window to hide the cotton wool, the covering effect of the light is very good, basically can not see the cotton wool, can only see the approximate water head, the other is to open a large window but the surface is uneven, the concave small pits are generally to remove the cotton ball, the position of the dirty point, to cover up the cotton wool and seed tender inside the jadeite rough. β
Liu Yiyan was very dissatisfied and said: "Even the window is opened very small, so that it is impossible to judge the quality of the internal water, but when the light is observed, because the opening is small, the light is easy to concentrate, and the effect of the water, texture and color will be better! The light transmittance is very good after the light is lit, because the crystal gap of the original jadeite is relatively large, and the penetration ability of the light is also very good, especially the light purple material, the purple through the gap is very beautiful after the light, in fact, the water head is poor, the color is light, and the flesh is coarse, this practice is simply ruining the reputation of the jade world!"
"That's disgusting, isn't it?"
Yang Hao and Chen Song didn't expect that these jade merchants would really do whatever it took for the sake of profit!
Liu Yiyan said helplessly: "There are disgusting and more obscene means!"
"Isn't that the most disgusting?"
Yang Hao couldn't help but ask, "What is that means?"
