246 friends

So, when dense numbers appeared on the big screen.

It immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the audience.

This time on the public plate, there are tens of thousands of stones.

But of course, not every piece will be tendered.

What is now displayed on the screen is only someone bidding.

But there are also thousands of pieces of information.

Not to mention a few screens, even dozens of screens are displayed together, which is not enough.

Therefore, what can be displayed on the big screen at this time is a relatively high transaction price.

But people don't have to worry about their information being leaked.

Because now they are all bound to the phone.

The result of the winning bid will be sent to everyone's mobile phone in the form of a text message.

......

So these people either look up at the electronic screen or look down at their phones.

After a moment of silence.

And then there was the appearance of all beings.

Some people were overjoyed and ecstatic, and even jumped up and down shouting, "Hit!

This is the winning bid.

Look at the excitement of those people.

It seems that he already has a sky-high price of jadeite.

No, it should be that you have the whole world and have reached the pinnacle of life.

Some people sigh and frown.

Scratching the hair.

Drop the phone.

He even got angry with others and quarreled with his companions.

"I said 30,000 yuan, you don't agree, now it's okay, right? I was snatched away by others! See no? 35,000 yuan! It's 5,000 yuan! Let me miss out on the best jade! According to my experience, at least it has to be of the oil green seed! It's worth hundreds of thousands, and it's all cheated by you bastard! You pay it! You pay me!"

The man was not convinced: "You said that the oil green seed is the oil green seed? Now you say that the glass seed is okay! In my opinion, it is shit at most! I didn't let you win the bid, it helped you!"

The color of the oil green species is not pure green, mixed with gray or some blue, not bright enough, and the color can be from light to dark.

Because the surface gloss resembles an oily luster, it is called oil green species.

According to the degree of transparency, it is also divided into high, medium and low grades. The best oil green is also very expensive,

And "shitland" is also a technical term in the jadeite industry.

Just listen to the name, of course, it is a very poor quality jadeite.

The color is grayish and black, the texture is rough, the whole is opaque, and there are many flaws, and there are many cracks, which looks like dog shit.

Because no bidding was successful.

So these two friends said that it was a green oil in it, and it was a big loss if they didn't shoot it.

The other said it was shit, and I didn't take a picture of it because I picked it up.

So they started arguing.

There was a lot of noise, and they started fighting.

But such fights don't attract anyone's attention at all.

No one cares about them.

Everyone cares about their labels.

Some are ecstatic.

Some are depressed.

Some danced with their hands.

There was hysteria.

But through Mr. Xu's introduction.

I've got it.

At this time, the carnival of bid opening is just a small carnival.

When the stone is solved, it is a big carnival.

A real.

It's just that there is a difference between this time and then.

Or even diametrically opposed.

Because there are people who win the bid today, they will get what they want when they solve the stone, and they will reap greater happiness.

There are people who did not win the bid today, and when they look at other people's calculus, they have all kinds of envy, jealousy and hatred.

But there are also people who won the bid today, and when they solve the stone, they find that there is nothing inside, or the goods are not right, and they fall into despair.

There are also people who did not win the bid today, when they watched others break down, because they found that it was not themselves who suffered, so they let others bear the thunder, and gloated.

......

Other people's excitement and loneliness are someone else's.

It has nothing to do with us.

We are more concerned about our own bids.

Each of us voted four.

There are joys and sorrows.

When the final statistics were made, Yu Xiaoli won 2 and spent 10,007.

I won 2 and spent 30,000 2.

And Chen Jianying hit 4 at once.

It cost 50,000 dollars.

Chen Jianying laughed.

It's kind of scary to watch.

Then, the exciting time finally came.

Calcite has finally begun!

......

Although logically.

When you take a picture of the rough stone and pay the money, you can solve the stone whenever you want.

Wherever you want to dissolve the stone, it is your freedom.

It is not mandatory, it must be done on site.

You can take it home and wait for ten or eight years.

But in fact, no one has such patience.

Almost all people, except for those who are just hoarding jadeite rough like flipping houses, waiting for the appreciation in the future, and indeed the rough is also appreciating every year.

will choose to dissolve the stone on the public plate.

The difference is that some people will solve it behind closed doors.

Some people are willing to solve it in public.

......

"Old Yu, I think my palms are sweaty, you come first. ”

"Jianying, I also don't know the bottom in my heart, so you should come first. ”

In the backyard of our rented B&B, Yu Xiaoli and Chen Jianying were there, along with a complete set of calcite tools.

But 20 minutes have passed.

The two still haven't made a decision on who will do it first.

Or I'm looking impatient.

"Old Yu, come first, aren't you called a rare genius in a hundred years?"

I told Yu Xiaoli out loud.

Yu Xiaoli was fooled by me and gained fighting spirit.

Roll up your arms and sleeves.

Pick up the cutter, it's time to start.

In front of him was a rectangular stone.

It's probably more than 30 kilograms.

He started the cutter and was about to start.

"Slow!"

Mr. Xu's voice came from behind.

I saw him strode forward and stopped Yu Xiaoli's movements.

"You can really do it, if I don't stop it, you cut it all at once, and the whole jade inside will be destroyed by you. ”

As soon as he said this, Yu Xiaoli was so frightened that he hurriedly threw the cutting machine in his hand to the ground.

almost hit Chen Jianying's foot.

"Mr. Xu, please!"

Mr. Xu was not polite, first took out a flashlight, and looked at the stone carefully.

Then he pondered for ten minutes.

Then he took out the chalk and began to draw lines on the outer shell of the stone.

"Let's cut through this first. ”

He commanded Yu Xiaoli.

Yu Xiaoli was a little trembling at this time, holding the cutting machine.

The rotating head makes a "sizzle" sound.

Spin fast.

Cut down along the chalk traces.

With a "bang", a third of the stone was cut open.

The small half of the stone fell to the ground.

stirred up quite a bit of dust.

All three of us looked through the incision in the stone.

I want to see the long-awaited green.

But to our disappointment, the incision was grayish.

It doesn't mean green at all.

We were all a little disappointed.

This is the stone chosen by Yu Xiaoli.

He let out a sigh of his own involuntarily.

But Chen Jianying immediately gave him a look.

Meaning, don't show such a disappointed look in front of Mr. Xu.

That would make Mr. Xu too unable to get off the stage.

Yu Xiaoli is also a person who can afford to take it and put it down.

Immediately hid the disappointment.

Instead, he smiled and said: "Haha, it's okay, gambling on stones is to lose and earn." ”

But Mr. Xu didn't seem to hear it.

Instead, he continued to observe the incision.

"Grinder!"

He commanded in a low voice.

Hearing Mr. Xu say this, the eyes of the three of us lit up.

Yu Xiaoli's breathing was a little heavy.

After all, this is the first time that the three of us have gambled on stones.

The first calcite.

All want to have a start.

It doesn't mean that Xiaoli did it, Chen Jianying had already rushed over with a grinder.

Under the command of Mr. Xu, the polishing began.

Polished for ten minutes.

Mr. Xu stopped the polishing action.

"Sandpaper!"

Yu Xiaoli immediately sent sandpaper.

"Shimizu!"

I brought it water.

The following work can be described as slow work and meticulous work.

Mr. Xu took the sandpaper and carefully sanded it.

Rinse with water from time to time.

And then......

"It's green!"

Yu Xiaoli shouted.

"Damn! It's really green!"

Chen Jianying jumped up directly.

Then, I saw it too.

Although only a little.

But behind the gray-white stones, a hint of greenery has appeared.

Jadeite!

There's really jade in there!

When Mr. Xu saw the green, he also breathed a sigh of relief.

There was a look of relief on his face.

"Yes, it's green, looking at this color, it should be an ice species. ”

Ice species?

Hear those two words.

Yu Xiaoli was so excited that he was about to shout.

Ice species, as the name suggests, are as transparent as ice.

Transparency and head are slightly inferior to glass species.

It belongs to high-grade jadeite.

Unexpectedly, the first time we gambled on stones, we had such a big gain.

Then everyone held their breath and watched Mr. Xu continue to polish.

After half an hour. Finally unraveled the whole stone.

The size of this stone is very large, more than 30 kilograms.

But the jadeite inside only adds up to about 3 kilograms.

Mr. Xu looked at the jade: "It's still okay, you can have one kilogram of ice, and the rest are glutinous ice, you can make five or six pairs of bracelets, if you sell it to a jeweler, 1 million is in hand." ”

The transparency of the glutinous ice species is close to that of the ice species, like an iced glutinous rice soup, and the jade base is slightly turbid. It is translucent and less valuable than ice.

Although it is a pity that these three kilograms are not all ice seeds.

But!

1 million!

1,000,000 is in hand!

No wonder people are so crazy about gambling stones.

Rush to it.

Because the money came so easily.

Yu Xiaoli photographed this rough stone and only spent 10,000 yuan.

but got 1 million jadeite.

That's 100 times the profit.

What else can be done to have such a high profit?

There is no usury.

Smuggling did not.

Even bank robberies may not be available.

But there are gambling stones.

It's still legal.

Yu Xiaoli no longer knew what words to use to thank Mr. Xu.

But Mr. Xu was not surprised by this.

Waving his hand: "Okay, there are so many more, let's talk about it after we finish it." ”

Next, under the command of Mr. Xu, we began to solve the second stone that Xiao Li auctioned.

This piece is much smaller, less than 10 kilograms.

Really like a watermelon.

With the experience of the first piece, when the stone was solved, Yu Xiaoli and Chen Jianying both benefited a lot.

It only took 20 minutes for the stone to unravel.

"It's green, it's green again, hahaha!" Yu Xiaoli rejoiced.

But Chen Jianying looked at the jade inside.

"Mr. Xu, although I don't understand it, I don't think it's a high-end product, right?"

Mr. Xu smiled and said: "Yes, this is a bean seed, the texture of the bean seed is relatively rough, the outline of the internal crystal can be seen with the naked eye, and the color is relatively dull, which is completely opaque and not of high value." The jadeite made of this material cannot be called jewelry, it can only be said to be a handicraft, you are auctioned for 7,000 yuan, right? It would be good to sell it for 2,000 yuan. ”

This piece is a loss.

Lost 5,000 yuan.

But Yu Xiaoli, who had already earned 1 million before, certainly wouldn't mind.

Still smiling from ear to ear.

"It's okay, it's okay, I'm not selling it anymore, it's okay to find someone to make a bracelet and give it away, haha, I'm not that greedy. ”

"Okay Lao Yu, I know you're happy, it's time for me now!"

Chen Jianying has long been impatient.

He hit 4 rough stones at once.

Even if you don't expect all four rough stones to be green, you can make a lot of money.

But like Yu Xiaoli, he can solve two pieces of ice material.

Then he will be developed.

I looked at Chen Jianying's fascinated appearance, and I guess I was already imagining the beautiful picture of smashing stacks of banknotes on the face of that snobbish mother-in-law, and then flying with his sweetheart.

But an hour later.

Chen Jianying sat on the ground.

The hair has been scratched like a chicken nest.

Because the ups and downs of life are so exciting.

When Chen Jianying won the bid, he voted for four pieces, and the sigh when he won four pieces seemed to be still in front of him.

But the reality is that he threw four pieces.

All four pieces collapsed.

Don't say that there is no high-grade jadeite.

Medium jadeite does not.

Not even the lowest grade.

I didn't even see a bit of shit.

In other words, Chen Jianying spent 50,000 yuan.

Just bought a lonely.

Throw 50,000 yuan into the water, and you can still hear a sound.

But now, the 50,000 yuan is lost silently.

Mr. Xu was also a little embarrassed: "Hey, I'm gone, I didn't expect these pieces to be green at all, Brother Xiao Chen, I'm sorry." ”

Chen Jianying sat up from the ground.

He smiled casually: "Mr. Xu, what you said is inappropriate. As we said before, we are very grateful for your guidance, we don't have such a big face, so we have to force you to help us make a fortune. Whether it is a loss or a gain, it is our fortune, and we do not force it. In fact, it's a good thing that I gambled, I saw Lao Yu earn 1 million all of a sudden, to be honest, I was a little drunk, I couldn't control myself, and I would come to gamble in the future. But the collapse of these four pieces can be regarded as a reminder to me, gambling on stones is not so easy, I will still be down-to-earth in the future. ”

Mr. Xu nodded slightly: "Well, the young man is good, he is open-minded enough, I can rest assured that you can do this." ”

I am also impressed by Chen Jianying.

Boy, yes.

Chic enough.

Yu Xiaoli spoke at this time: "Jianying, don't be discouraged, we said before, everyone gambled on the stone together, made a crazy profit, and lost a share together, so I sold the rough stone, and I have your share! You can rest assured that there is a big brother, I will definitely help you support you, and let you raise your eyebrows in front of that snobbish old lady! Your object is a good girl, we can't let her suffer anymore, we will take her out!"

Then he looked at me again: "And you, Miss Huanxi, it doesn't matter if you are all broken, I have your share here! I am old enough to talk and count, and I am not the kind of person who eats alone." ”

Chen Jianying looked very excited: "Old Yu, you ...... Brother Yu, hey, I won't say anything!"

Yes, in this situation, any language is pale.

Although the two of them did say that they had done it before, they gambled on stones together.

If you lose or earn, you will bear it together.

But that's easier said than done.

Especially now that Yu Xiaoli has earned 1 million, but Chen Jianying has no income.

Yu Xiaoli is still willing to share the money with Chen Jianying, so it's really interesting and buddy.

That's what friends are.

Really friends.

Friends are only two words, but they contain a lot of information.

Countless affections.

There are a lot of friends.

There are fox friends and dog friends.

There are friends with wine and meat.

There are friends who stick knives in your back, such as the friend of Jin Lan's stepfather.

There are also friends who make promises and value righteousness over wealth.

True friends.

For example, Yu Xiaoli.

Although he is very inconspicuous.

He even worked as a liar.

But in the hearts of those fellow villagers, in Chen Jianying's hearts, Yu Xiaoli stood tall in the sky.

What a rare fellow and a rare friend.

......

"Lao Yu, thank you for your kindness, but people have to talk and count, I said it before, I don't care how you and Chen Jianying agreed, but I am financially independent from you and are responsible for your own profits and losses. I don't want a cent of your money, whether I lose it or make it. Of course, if I cut out 100 million in a while, I won't give it to you. ”

I said with a smile.

Yu Xiaoli thought about it and smiled: "Yes, Miss Huanxi does what she says, she is a person who does big things, and what do you say seems to be my mother-in-law." But we've got to have a good meal tonight, I'm invited!"

Then he looked at Mr. Xu again: "Mr. Xu, we are not people who don't understand the rules, you pointed out the way to make a fortune, you said, what percentage of the consulting fee should be? ”

Oh, yes.

The draught does not forget the well diggers.

If it weren't for Mr. Xu's guidance, Yu Xiaoli wouldn't have been able to get the 1 million anyway.

Naturally, I want to express it.

Mr. Xu also waved his hand: "The old man said before, I don't want your consulting fee, Miss Huanxi still does what she says, let alone an old man like me?

Several of us laughed.

At the same time, it is also recognized.

It's just a little bit of ice and glutinous ice jade.

The three of us have never seen the world, so it's understandable to be so excited.

But what kind of character is Mr. Xu?

Can you be tempted just because of this little thing?

That's too underestimating the masters!

......

It's time for the two stones I chose.

The first piece, nothing.

The second piece is green.

I can't see what kind of water my jadeite belongs to.

Mr. Xu explained to me.

The green that I produce is called the cyan species.

The structure of cyanine species is rough and the transparency is poor.

The background color is light green, and some are light gray or bean green.

And there is no pattern in the distribution of green.

There is no transition.

It is different in shade and irregular in shape.

So it belongs to the middle and low-grade jadeite.

Mr. Xu gave me an estimate of the price.

If these jadeites are sold on the public market, the estimated price is about the same as the cost of my purchase.

are more than 20,000 yuan.

I made a fuss, no loss, no gain.

The light was left to shout.

Of course, if I'm not in a hurry to sell, I'll sell it for a few years.

Maybe earn some more.

I was a little disappointed with the result, but not really disappointed.

Anyway, I'm here to catch ducks on the shelves.

Now the two live treasures have been earned.

I'll just think it's a tour.

Saw the world.

Got to know friends.

It's worth the trip.

......

That night, we had a big meal together.

Mr. Xu also had friends to visit, but he didn't follow along.

It was the three of us who went.

But when I came back, I was the only one who was awake.

Those two people have become drunkards.

They staggered from side to side, singing as if no one was around.

Friends go together for a lifetime, those days are no more, a sentence for a lifetime, a lifetime of love......
