Chapter 414: Learn to distinguish jade

In fact, in layman's terms, the quality of jade depends on whether it is green or not, how much green it has, and whether it is translucent or not. The most important thing is that there are not many lines on the jade, and if there are more lines, it will not be too transparent.

As he spoke, Master Wang took a book from the side, in fact, how good the jade is does not determine its value, it is the person who carves it that determines the value.

You look at these two bracelets, you can see that both bracelets are opened from a stone. Even if there is a difference in texture or something, it won't be too big.

Lin Kai took the book and looked at it, it is true that the texture of these two pieces is about the same, but the price is much worse.

One was carved by a person who was not very experienced in carving, and the other was carved by a master carver, and one of the two finished products was particularly delicate, and the other was very rough.

The most important criterion for judging whether jade is good or bad is.

Whether it is translucent, whether it is symmetrical, whether the color is positive, whether there is an ethereal sound when percussion, whether there are small spots and small potholes, whether the shape and size are appropriate.

The color of jade is not only green, there are also red and yellow, and there is also a defective jade yellowing without color.

Translucent refers to a piece of open jade, which shines on it with a flashlight, and there is no dust and miscellaneous.

Symmetry means whether the color distribution of the jade is uniform, if the color of a point is heavy, and the color of a place is light and unevenly distributed, this piece of jade is not a good jade.

The shape and size are said to be convenient for future engraving, and there are no other requirements. Of course, the bigger the better.

Although the one you gave me is good, it is still a little small. He was only the size of a fist, and if it was the size of a football, it would be worth a lot.

Percussion means that in general, there will be some cracks and cracks on the jade.

Take a metal rod and knock it so that you can see if the cracks will break as soon as you knock them. Then there is whether the sound of the jade and the metal rod hitting is crisp and loud, with an ethereal sound.

Some of the small spots and potholes on the jade, which are not visible to the naked eye, can be seen with a magnifying glass, and then magnified ten times or eight times. It can be seen with the naked eye and can be seen at a glance.

After hearing this, Lin Kai sighed with emotion, it turns out that there are so many ways to distinguish jade. In fact, it is useless to learn these things by yourself, you just need to know. Which one looks good?

Kaiyu's proficiency is actually not required. After all, if you can see through your eyes, you can see that there is jade on that side, which side is a stone, and how much jade can be opened on which side.

You only need to make adjustments in time to ensure that the jade you open is intact.

It seems that it is necessary for me to find another place to gamble on stones in the future and buy a few more stones. It's a way to make a fortune.

For others, there may be profits and losses, but for yourself, it is definitely a business that will not lose money. In this way, I may be a rich man in the future.

Just when Lin Kai was looking forward to the future, Master Wang interrupted: "If you have any good stones in the future, you can also come to me to open them again." I think you're in luck. ”

Lin Kai agreed: "Of course, of course, Master Wang's craftsmanship still has nothing to say." ”

In fact, Lin Kai would not come to him at all, after all, if every piece of his stone can be opened jade, it is a bit too unbelievable, so it is better to open it yourself It is more assured.

I don't want to be a public figure. What's more, it is impossible for others to know the secrets of their eyes, and if they are known, they may think of themselves as a monster, and maybe even as a psychopath.

Being caught by those so-called scientists to do research is not what I want. I still make a lot of money in a muffled voice.

Lin Kai thanked Master Wang and said, "Thank you Master Wang for your answer, I also have a little understanding of jade now." Master Wang should be busy with something, or go and do something, I will leave it at that. ”

"You don't want to listen to what I just said, then my jade is too easy. Master Wang said.

Looking at Master Wang's appearance, it seemed that he was going to continue.

"That's enough, it's just the so-called greedy and chewy. That's all I need for the time being. Master Wang, you're busy, I'll go first. Lin Kai hurriedly spoke.

I didn't come here to learn in the first place, but to make money and open my own stone so that others would not know that I had a perspective eye.

Now that the situation is known, there is no need to listen to him here anymore. Although I knew that this old man was for his own good, there was no need.

I learned a lot about stones from this old man Wang. Although I am not proficient, I also have a general understanding of the classification of jade and the skills of opening stones.

It's time to go and get the stones I brought back from Yunnan-Guizhou Province. Lin Kai returned to the warehouse and moved all the stones he had brought back from Yungui Province to another empty warehouse.

The stone that Lin Kai was about to open was much, much better than the one given to Master Wang. Most of these stones are all green, but I don't know that there are so many words about jade.

I only know that it is green, and there is something in it. Even if it's good, just move it back. I still brought back a few stones that were not in very good condition.

Lin Kai still remembered that in a large pile of stones, there was a stone that could not even see through with his own eyes. That piece must be a treasure.

Lin Kai first went to the pile of stones and picked out a medium-sized stone, took him to the processing table, and held a small hammer and a small chisel in his hand. Begin to gesture at the stone.

After all, it is the first time for Lin Kai to open a stone by himself, and it is better to take a piece of ordinary goods to practice hands, and he will not be particularly sad in case he breaks it.

Lin Kai used his perspective ability, and this stone was like peeling an onion. began to look into it layer by layer, and Lin Kai's hands began to move. He smashed the small chisel with a hammer and knocked it little by little.

After knocking for a while, he knocked almost enough, and then picked up a small rub and rubbed it on the stone. After all, he is still a novice, and it is impossible to chisel the whole stone with a small chisel.

I didn't have enough work in my hands, so I could only take a small rub and rub it slowly, just when there was not much stone left.

I saw Lin Kai put the rub aside again and picked up the sandpaper on the edge of the table. I began to rub it slowly on the stone. Finally, after half an hour, the stone was all opened by Lin Kai.

Lin Kai went to the stone pile and took another relatively large stone. In the same way, take a chisel first, then change it to a rub, then to sandpaper.
