672: Hidden Grandmaster

Chapter 672: My Glory

Zheng Minglang gestured a finger.

Zhou You nodded and said, "Two dollars and one million, then I haven't lost anything." ”

Zheng Minglang replied with a wry smile: "It's a million." ”

Zhou You continued to nod: "Sure enough, there is your style." ”

Zheng Minglang knew that Zhou You was satirizing himself, but he was helpless. He was really wronged in the previous days, and a lot of things were expensive.

Zhou You said: "But you can also rest assured, the performance of this black wax shell is also good, and it is estimated that it can produce a good jadeite." As for the price, it is estimated that it will not lose anywhere, as long as you can sell it in time. ”

Zheng Minglang's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he asked, "What kind of jade can this black wax shell produce?" You said before that the black spot, if you can get back the cost, then its water head will be transparent enough." ”

Zhou You replied: "The head of the water is about the ice species, and it is estimated that it can produce about 1.5 kilograms of jadeite with its volume. So even if there is a dark spot, it can be compensated for by design and engraving techniques. ”

"That's just great. ”

Zheng Minglang put down the black wax shell, pointed to the lime skin and asked, "What about this piece?" It is also a high-end product, and the performance is equally excellent, so it shouldn't be bad." ”

Zhou You's face instantly became serious, making Zheng Minglang feel bumpy. But then he laughed and said: "Lime skin is a high-end product, and there are pine flowers on this wool top, and one or two pythons are showing off, which is a good combination." The only polite thing is that the pine flowers are a little light, and it is estimated that the color of the jadeite inside will not be very bright. ”

The whole stone seems to be sprinkled with a layer of green powder, which is yellow-green at first glance, and once it hits the water, it will show a light green, and some will have a little bit of hard green. The general pine flower area is large, covering half a stone or the whole stone, if it is on the python, it is better, and it is a material that cannot be missed. And there is a trick to the pine flower on the surface, the shade of the surface directly affects the color of the inside, and it is one of the pine flowers that are easy to judge.

With such a large amount of information, the results are clear.

Zhou You concluded: "This piece of wool is the best of the three, the water head is about ice species, but the color is uniform, there is no other variegation, the most critical green surface jade is heavy, it is estimated that it can bring you about two million profits, and the previous losses have been recovered." ”

"Luck!"

Zheng Minglang secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said: "If it weren't for the distortion of the jade market, otherwise I would not have been able to return to my roots." In this way, I made a lot of money by hoarding this batch of things. ”

Zhou You nodded.

He didn't let up either. He had just secretly looked at the many small wool materials that were a little densely stacked on the counter on the side with a collective perspective, and dug up a few pieces that were quite good, which happened to be used as examples.

I saw Zhou You walk aside, take out two pieces of wool from the counter that are at most the size of a fist, and say: "Your batch of wool is very high-grade, if it is put on the market, the cost alone will exceed 10 million yuan, but it is not a random number." The most important thing is that your wool has many performances, such as these two pieces, both of which are high-end goods with pythons and pine flowers, and you can see green when you wipe it a little, and it will definitely be worth twice as much as you can sell it when the time comes. ”

"It seems that I didn't have to be wronged in the first place. ”

Zheng Minglang became proud and said: "I didn't want to buy this batch of wool at the beginning, because I was a little nervous at that time. But I see that these wool materials are very uniform, and the performance is almost the same, and it is the old pit material from the same old field, and finally the Burmese always say that these are all from the same batch of mines, and they are definitely not fooling people's goods, so they are reluctant to buy it, and they have been piled up here, if it weren't for you picking it up, I almost forgot that they existed. ”

Zhou You joked: "I wouldn't have told you if I had known, and I would have secretly acquired them all." ”

Zheng Minglang was surprised: "They can actually get into your eyes, it seems that they are really good." No, I'll have to get someone over and untie them right away, and use the good stuff first. ”

Zhou You smiled bitterly.

Zheng Minglang invited again: "Let's go and play with a few pieces." ”

Zhou You shook his head and said, "No, this is an eye-opener for me, just take a look, don't get any dust." ”

Zheng Minglang shook his head helplessly.

At this time, the housekeeper also came down and reminded: "Young Master, Mr. Ping is here." ”

Mr. Ping is the jade carving master Zheng Lao.

The jade carving master Zheng Lao's name is Zheng Ping, who has an ordinary name but an extraordinary life. If it weren't for the fact that the housekeeper of the Zheng family followed Mr. Zheng Zaimin during that period, and his seniority was extremely high, otherwise it would be impossible to add another name.

"Okay, let's go up. ”

Zheng Minglang rejoiced: "Fortunately, we haven't dissolved the stone yet, otherwise we will definitely be told by my grandfather and father that we get lime all over our bodies." ”

The two of them just talked and chatted.

"The two Zheng are good!"

Zhou You saw the two Zheng elders drinking morning tea and hurriedly greeted them.

"Xiaoyou!"

Mr. Zheng Ping saw Zhou You and gave a smile.

Although Mr. Zheng Ping is a very charitable person, he rarely attaches so much importance to a junior, even his proud apprentice Li Yidao and his friend's grandson Zheng Minglang do not value it so much. The reason is also very simple, Zhou You has reached the point of being on an equal footing with him by relying on his own efforts.

Mr. Zheng Ping said: "Xiaoyou, it will take some time for the people invited by our two old men to come over, why don't you sit down and have a cup of tea." It's not good for your body to suck in the dust all day long. ”

Zheng Minglang muttered: "He's not in good health? Who's in good health? I've seen his strange power, dozens of kilograms of jade wool can be taken at will, and a two-hundred-pound man can be removed at will, and I haven't heard of him being sick until now, and his body is as strong as a monster." ”

Zheng Minglang's muttering was useless, and Zhou You replied: "Mr. Huiping's words, I know that inhaling lime often is not good for the body, and I have already prevented it." ”

Both old gentlemen nodded and asked Zhou You to sit down.

Mr. Zheng Zaimin asked straight to the point: "Xiaoyou, this time the old man is going to partner with you, I don't know if you have a manuscript?"

They had talked a little before, but they didn't go too deep and deeply, so they said that they were not prepared at all and wanted to slowly find ideas.

Zhou You replied: "With a clear reminder, I now have a clue." ”

Mr. Zheng Zaimin was curious and asked, "Oh, let's talk about it, if there is anything you need for the old man, just say it." ”

Zhou You replied: "Well, I have a piece of superb jadeite hidden in my house, as long as the design and carving are passed, I can make a dazzling piece of jewelry, and when the time comes, it should not be inferior to those internationally renowned jewelers." ”

The two Zheng elders nodded at the same time.

Old Mr. Zheng Ping was curious, and asked, "Xiaoyou, your superb blood beauty was enough to amaze the world before, do you still have the same level?"

Mr. Zheng Ping didn't think that there was a better jade than the previous best blood beauty.

Zhou You replied: "Mr. Huiping's words, I do have a piece of superb jadeite at home, and it is also a superb violet that is very suitable for the aesthetic views of Westerners. I'm currently struggling with who to design and engrave!"

Old Mr. Zheng Ping replied with a smile: "Isn't there one in front of you? Don't you look down on the old man?"

"Ugh!"

Zhou You hurriedly apologized: "Mr. Ping, it's not that the kid looks down on you, it's that you have already sealed the knife, and the kid really doesn't dare to disturb it." ”

Mr. Zheng Ping was very satisfied with this answer and did not pursue it anymore.

And Mr. Zheng Zaimin is not as calm as Zheng Ping. Such excellent jadeites appeared one after another, but it was a very exciting thing, at least the Zheng family didn't have such a superb product in their hands now.

But now there's a chance.

Mr. Zheng Zaimin hurriedly said: "Xiaoyou, since you can't find a suitable partner, it's better for the three of us to cooperate." Your jadeite, our Zheng family's designers and advertising channels, with Lao Ping's carving skills, I believe that it is impossible to find a sharp combination in the world. ”

"Good!"

I can't think of anything better than this.

Mr. Zheng Ping said: "Although the three-month period is a little tight, it is not very big, and there is no problem for the three families to communicate sincerely." ”

Zhou You couldn't help nodding.

His deal this time was definitely profitable.

Traveling around Myanmar, they got two pieces of fine violets, one of which was so small that it was difficult to carve it into a work of art, so they had to go the jade route. The jewelry industry in the West has a soft spot for purple gemstones, so taking Western-style jewelry is the most suitable route.

So Zhou You cooperated with the two Zheng families, and such a route was the most perfect. Zhou You estimates that even if the jewelry that comes out at that time cannot become a highlight, it can attract a certain amount of attention and will not lose his face, so it is enough.

Mr. Zheng Zaimin originally wanted to discuss the ownership of the best violet after it was turned into jewelry, but he felt that it was too direct and not very good, so he held back the topic and waited for the opportunity to talk to Zhou You later.

The butler reappeared.

The housekeeper said respectfully: "Master, there is a Mr. Xiang outside who claims to be an old friend of Old Man Ping who wants to come in. ”

"Invite him in!"

Mr. Zheng Zaimin hurriedly invited, and then asked Mr. Zheng Ping: "Lao Ping, you are really powerful, you can even ask for such an old stubbornness as Xiang Shi." ”

Zhou You wondered why he had such a strange nickname.

Zheng Minglang, who had been sitting respectfully on the side, reminded: "The stone in Grandpa's mouth should be a famous clay sculpture artist on Hong Kong Island. His temper is very straight and smelly, but the skill is incredibly high, grandfather and Mr. Ping have said that Xiang Lao's clay carving craft can be called everyone, and there is almost no match for him in China. I vividly remember that Xiang Lao once opened a private exhibition, and at that time, a wealthy man planned to pay 3.88 million yuan for his most proud work, but he refused. ”

"Another hidden grandmaster-level figure!"

Zhou You can listen to the rivers and seas.

Everyone has their own circle, and it is not surprising that the two Zheng elders can make friends with grandmaster-level figures. It's just that he didn't expect the two Zheng elders to work so hard to introduce such a fierce unknown person.

Mr. Zheng Ping reminded: "Xiaoyou, Lao Xiang's temper stinks, you have to bear with me later." ”

Zhou You hurriedly replied: "Definitely! If I can invite him back, it will be my honor." ”
