Chapter 227: Penniless
Tengchong and Dali in Huaxia were once the distribution centers of jade and jade, but with the changes of the times, they have now been replaced by Ruili.
The trading history of Yunnan Ruili jadeite rough and jadeite products has been an important town for jadeite trade since the Han Dynasty.
At that time, starting from Chengdu, Sichuan, entering Zhaotong in Yunnan via Yibin, passing through Xiaguan to Mengmao in Dehong, entering Mujie, Nankan to Hpakant, and then to Central Asia;
This "Southern Silk Road" was hundreds of years earlier than the "Northern Silk Road", at that time, along this "Shu Body Poison Road", horse gangs and elephant teams were in an endless stream, trafficking a large amount of jade wool.
In the nearly 500 years from the Ming Dynasty to the end of the Anti-Japanese War, almost all the jade wool mined by MD was transported to Ruili and Tengchong, and only some of them were polished and processed on the spot, and then the soldiers were divided into three routes, one part went east, through Dali and Kunming, some entered Yibin, Sichuan, and Chengdu, or was transported out from Yibin through the Yangtze River, and then exported to the mainland and the coast, and some were transported to Chiang Mai in Dongmeng.
Jade is not only the treasure and life ornaments of the Mengmao Kingdom, but also a tribute to the Western Han Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty, at that time, these jewelry and jade could not be traded as general commodities, these rare green stones, the Ming Dynasty called jasper, Yongchang County in western Yunnan called Cuisheng stone.
Today's Ruili jadeite market is the largest jadeite trading variety and the most humanistic market, and the re-prosperity began in the 80s of the 20th century.
Ruili border trade is becoming more and more prosperous, the Southern Silk Road is shining again, driving the rapid development of the jewelry industry, Burmese Chinese, Dai, Jingpo and other ethnic groups and jewelry and jade merchants from surrounding countries have turned to Ruili Jewelry Street to operate jewelry jadeite, the ancient Mengmao Kingdom in the past The grand occasion of the busy sister jewelry jade street is truly reappearing in front of the world today.
The prosperity of Ruili jadeite market is not only due to Ruili's unique geographical location, national first-class port and sister's only domestic and foreign policy, but also closely related to the MD policy, from March 1998, jadeite wool is officially allowed to enter Ruili in the form of border trade, and about 6,000 tons of wool are imported into Ruili every year.
Under the influence of this jewelry culture, everyone in the local area is no stranger to jadeite, and even loves and hates.
Naturally, there was a gambling stone shop, each store is hung with a big poster, the poster is extremely tempting, the middle is printed with a picture of imperial green jadeite, and next to it is colorful, looks like a top jadeite picture of excellent water, and there is a knife poor, a knife rich slogan.
This kind of gambling stone shop, no matter how big or small, is full of people every day, and it is always staged with thrilling cuts and cuts, some people are worth a day skyrocketing, and some people are losing naked.
Li Haorui, as the largest local bottled water owner in Ruili, was out of control after coming into contact with gambling stones by chance, and with not bad money, he has become a valuable customer of every gambling stone shop.
His business basically doesn't have to be managed, his favorite thing to do every day is to go to the gambling stone shop to kill time, when it comes to gambling stones, the whole person is in good spirits, just like smoking a hibiscus, can last three days and three nights without napping.
Whether it is a rich man worth more than 100 million yuan, or a person at the bottom of the market, as long as he enters the gambling stone shop, one by one becomes serious and does not do anything, while drinking tea and smoking while holding the jade rough stone and starting to tear it, everyone has become able to speak well, and the ability to brag is a must!
Each of them said that the rough stone they chose could collapse out of a mountain of gold, but when he bought it and cut it, he became reluctant to live or die, some old fritters even took off their broken slippers, cross-legged stinky feet, sat for a day, smoked cigarettes one after another without money, and poured free tea desperately, often so angry that the owner of the gambling stone shop was a seven-trick smoke.
In the early morning in Ruili, the fog was very strong.
The streets are lined with trees, and there are sparse stalls selling breakfast and vegetables under the trees.
Li Haorui, as usual, was ready to have breakfast, go to the gambling stone shop to sit down, and then go back to the company to deal with daily affairs.
"Boss Li, it's early. ”
When the owner of the breakfast shop saw Li Haorui coming over, he smiled and said, "Is it still the same as usual?"
"Well, put more chili peppers in the fried noodles. ”
Li Haorui pulled out a chair and sat down, thinking about which gambling stone shop to wait to see the new goods.
It seems that Boss He of the Jinyu Gambling Stone Shop came with a batch of rough stones last night, maybe there can be a good one in it.
"Boss Li uses it slowly. ”
The owner of the breakfast shop brought a plate of fried noodles.
Li Haorui nodded, picked up disposable chopsticks and ate them.
Suddenly, he heard the sound of swallowing saliva next to him, and couldn't help but stop and turn his head to look, surprised in his heart.
I saw a teenager standing not far away staring at the fried noodles on his table, the teenager was not very old, he should be about the same age as his eldest daughter, wearing a shabby denim suit, but the stains on his face could not hide his handsome face.
I didn't expect this young man to be as handsome as he was when he was young!
Li Haorui pointed to the fried noodles and asked the young man, "Want to eat?"
Chen Song nodded a little embarrassedly.
It's really sad to say, after completing the immigration formalities yesterday and coming out of the guest house, he has been walking aimlessly, and he has not eaten for a day without any money.
"Sit down, I invite you. ”
Li Haorui turned his head and shouted to the owner of the breakfast shop: "Boss, fry another powder." ”
"Thank you!"
Chen Song thanked him, thought about it, and sat down at the table next to him.
Soon, the owner of the breakfast shop put a plate of fried noodles on Chen Song's table.
Chen Song picked up the chopsticks and devoured them.
When Li Haorui saw it, he smiled, got up after eating, took out a piece of twenty yuan, handed it to the owner of the breakfast shop, and said, "Give him a big copy of the rest of the money." ”
"Good!"
The owner of the breakfast shop took the money and praised: "Boss Li is so good-hearted, you deserve to do so much business!"
"Haha, who is not in difficulty...... Gone!"
Li Haorui was in a very happy mood, glanced at Chen Song, turned around and walked towards the gambling stone shop in the distance.
"Hey, it's so nice to be rich, it's okay to wander around, gamble on stones, it's really the same life!"
The breakfast shop owner looked at Li Haorui's back enviously.
When Chen Song heard this, his heart moved, and after eating the second plate of fried noodles, he thanked the owner of the breakfast shop and quickly chased in the direction where Li Haorui left.
Jinyu gambling stone shop, belongs to a relatively large local gambling stone shop, the shelves in the store are full of all kinds of rough stones, rumored to be related to the mining area, are first-hand sources.
At this time, the store was full of people, urging Boss He to hurry up and take out the rough stones that arrived last night.
"What's the hurry, it's still so early!"
Boss He was drowsy, yawning, and was very dissatisfied with this group of people who knocked on the door early in the morning.
An old man next to him said, "It's still early, you don't want to see what time it is, I have to pick up my grandson after I finish reading." ”
A young man in a suit said impatiently: "Boss He, don't ink, I have to finish reading it quickly and go back to the company, otherwise I will be late." ”
"You guys are really good!"
Boss He looked at the group of people with tears and laughter, and said, "Come with me." ”
As he spoke, he took the lead and walked inside, passing through an iron gate, and everyone came to the backyard.
The courtyard is quite spacious, with five stone dissolving machines placed in turn, and the ground is full of rough stones.
The old man was a little surprised and asked, "Did these all come in last night?"
"Yes!"
Boss He took out a cigarette, and after a circle, he leaned against the wall and smoked a cigarette while looking at the group of people who frantically stepped forward to grab the rough stone, and shook his head.
This group of old fritters, don't look at them one by one, they are more active than anyone else, but there are few who really buy them.
"Boss He, how much is this rough stone?"
The old man asked, holding a fist-sized, white rough stone.
Boss He glanced at the rough stone and said, "Eight thousand." ”
"Eight thousand?"
The old man said angrily: "Do you really dare to ask for it, you want eight thousand if the fart is bigger?"
Boss He snorted: "Take a good look, this is Moxisha's main material, now this kind of material is almost exhausted, the light in your hand can penetrate through the inside, like a small light bulb, the performance is all ice species, and any brand is over 10,000." ”
The old man replied: "It's too expensive, I want five thousand." ”
"That's not going to work!"
Boss He shook his head and said, "What I gave you is the real price." ”
"If it's ice in it, it's not expensive, but I'm afraid it's not. ”
The old man looked at the rough stone in his hand, and was a little uncertain for a while.
"Boss He, what about this piece?"
"Three thousand. ”
"Where's this one?"
"Fifteen thousand. ”
“......”
For a while, many people asked about the price after finding the rough stone that felt suitable, and a few wanted to bargain, but Boss He directly rejected the price given by him.
A bustling group of people, only four people spent money to buy it in the end, and more hesitating.
The person who bought the rough stone was relieved on the spot.
Chen Song, who was hiding behind and watching, shook his head when he saw the tangent lines drawn by these people.
They are all drawn directly along the cracks on the weathered crust, regardless of whether the cracks actually go in or not.
Four calciners start at the same time, making a muffled cutting sound.
When this group of people saw that someone had solved the stone, they stopped picking the original stone, and waited quietly on the side.
They also wanted to see where the quality of Boss He's batch of rough stones could go, so they decided not to start.
The four people who bought the rough were both excited and apprehensive, smoking cigarettes one after another.
It didn't take long for the four rough stones to be cut in half and moved out of the calcite.
"How?"
The crowd couldn't wait to step forward.
The four people who bought the rough were even more nervous.
"This piece is good, glutinous ice grows water, and there is ice in some parts, and there is yang green on it. ”
Boss Ke wiped one of the rough cut surfaces with his hand, which was the size of a hair, and he smiled at the owner of the rough stone: "Your three thousand pieces have gone up!"
"Haha! That's good!"
The owner of the rough was ecstatic.
Chen Song was speechless in his heart.
It's the ghost's glutinous ice seed yang green!
It is clearly a glutinous species with a loose texture, because the crystal gap is large, it looks like the water head is better, as for the so-called yang green, it is completely very light green, because of the bottom gray, so that the trace of green looks more vivid, and it is far from yang green.
No wonder Master Liu said that the merchants are selling jadeite at a higher level, the rough stone wool is not polished, and it is difficult for people who do not understand to distinguish the water, which is completely improved by two levels!
