Chapter 19 It's very down-to-earth!
Everyone can see that the stall owner is not at home in carving, he is a rookie, and now he is just practicing.
However, isn't it too extravagant to practice directly with jadeite?
"It's too wasteful, isn't it?" Andy couldn't help but whisper to Hu Yang.
Hu Yang looked at the piece of jadeite that was being carved again, and explained: "It's just a dry white jadeite, it is also a low-grade jadeite, it is not worth much, and it is suitable for practice." ”
Dried white jadeite is a white or light off-white jadeite with a coarse texture and poor transparency.
The connoisseur's evaluation is: coarse, dry, and not moist. This variety is colorless or light in color, and the boundary between the grains can be seen by the naked eye, so the appearance structure is rough, and the use and ornamental value are low, and it is a low-grade jadeite variety.
After speaking, he ignored the stall owner and turned his gaze to other things at the stall.
Two-thirds of this stall is jadeite material, which has not been carved, and most of it belongs to low-grade materials.
"Brother Hu, look, there's a yellow one here. Andy said, a little fussed.
Hu Yang looked over and said: "That is the Huang Fei I mentioned to you just now, jadeite also has a variety of colors, generally speaking, green jadeite is the most common, purple jade looks noble, Huang Fei these are relatively few." ”
"Surely it must be worth it?"
"Rare things are expensive! ”
"It doesn't seem to be necessarily, something like jadeite depends on ......"
......
Seeing the discussion of the audience in the live broadcast room, Hu Yang said to everyone: "In general, the price of yellow jadeite is inferior to that of green jadeite. Just now, a friend said that scarcity is expensive. This principle works in almost any industry. However, simply putting it on the jadeite is a bit unreasonable.
The value of jadeite is not simply measured by color.
A piece of jadeite, the most important thing is their 'species', such as glass species, glutinous species, ice species, etc., which is equivalent to the texture of jadeite, is the most critical.
No matter what color jadeite, as long as it reaches the quality of glass, it is a rare treasure.
Due to the special conditions for the formation of yellow jadeite, the water of yellow jadeite is generally not very good, and the yellow jadeite that can reach the ice species is very rare, and the yellow jadeite of the ice species is very precious, which can be met but not sought.
Generally speaking, the seed head of yellow jadeite is generally between glutinous seeds and bean seeds, and the common yellow jadeite with good quality on the market is generally glutinous.
For example, the piece we see now is the yellow fei of the bean seed, and the price is between 30,000 and 50,000!"
After analyzing it, it is better to say it as plainly as possible so that everyone can understand it.
It's not that yellow jadeite is not as good as green, it's just that yellow jadeite is usually not very good at "planting water", which affects the overall value.
"Then if the same quality of green jadeite and yellow jadeite are compared, who is more valuable?" someone couldn't help but ask.
"For example, the same glass species of imperial green and glass species of chanterelle, both of which are very rare gem-quality jadeite, as long as the size of a fist, may be worth hundreds of millions, as for which side is more valuable, it depends on the buyer's situation. Hu Yang said.
Jadeite of glass quality, no matter what color it is, is quite rare and rare, so the value is about the same.
The mutton fat jade I saw earlier costs 20,000 or 30,000 yuan per gram. Now it's even more exaggerated, the glass jadeite, the fist is big to hundreds of millions?
"The anchor is a bit exaggerated, isn't it?"
"That's right, do you know how much cash is 100 million yuan? You can load it directly in a truck. ”
......
Seeing these doubts, Hu Yang smiled: "Don't believe it, like the imperial green jadeite, the ring face with the size of the thumb can be auctioned for tens of millions of prices." In the past two years, a brand half the size of a palm was auctioned for more than 100 million. The fist-sized imperial green material is worth more than 100 million, which is not an exaggeration at all. ”
Everyone ran to search and found that it was really as the anchor said, one by one stunned, and once again refreshed their understanding of jade.
Populus Hu walked to the other side of the shelf and took down a jade carved bonsai from it.
Andy et al. took a look at the list price: 88888.
Everyone is speechless, merchants seem to like to play this kind of trick, the price is 666, 9999, 88888 and so on, the name is the so-called good intentions.
More than 80,000 jade carved potted plants, Brother Hu is interested? It seems that the carving is quite vivid.
Hu Yang knocked on the counter: "Boss, collect the money!"
The middle-aged stall owner raised his head again, surprised.
Originally, he saw that it was two young people, and he didn't expect them to help his stall's business, but he didn't expect that people really had the financial ability to buy it, and it was very fast.
When he took a look, it turned out to be the jade carved potted plant, which was generally carved from jadeite.
Cyanine jadeite belongs to the middle or low grade of jadeite, the color is emerald green, vein-like distribution, very irregular, the texture is thick and fine, translucent.
"There's no transparency to speak of!" Andy muttered.
Before, Brother Hu told everyone that the quality of jade is mainly based on transparency. The jade carving potted plant in front of me, although the carving seems to be very good, but the jade quality is too poor, right?
Is it worth more than 80,000?
"Flower green jade, that's it. Hu Yang shook a sentence out.
This kind of jadeite is also quite easy to identify, its green shape is diverse, dotted, twisted, threaded, spotted, flaked and so on. And the green is sparse and dense, and the shade is uncertain. The distribution of green is irregular, disorganized, and extremely chaotic.
The stall owner said: "My flower green jade potted carving, jade is delicate, the color is verdant and bright, the feel is soft and smooth, and the jade carving is exquisite, the carving is delicate, the lines are smooth and natural, it is quite collectible, or this little brother has a vision." Swiping a card, or a check, or transferring money by phone?"
After speaking, he also took out a WeChat QR code for receiving money.
The audience in the live broadcast room was stunned, and now mobile phone payment has really penetrated into all walks of life!
"By the way, Alipay's is also fine. As he spoke, he took out a QR code for Alipay from the drawer.
Seeing this, everyone suddenly felt very cordial.
Before this, jade gave everyone a very high-end feeling, after all, what I saw just now, how many thousands, how many hundreds, or even millions at every turn, is not something that ordinary people can consume at all.
"Haha!
"Now the domestic mobile payment is really powerful. ”
......
Hu Yang didn't continue to talk nonsense, Alipay transferred more than 80,000 yuan, and left with the potted plant.
After walking away, Andy asked the question that everyone wanted to know:
"Brother Hu, this jade carved potted plant is quite valuable, right?"
Hu Yangyi grinned: "It's okay, I just need this basin and give away the jade carving." ”
