Chapter 202: Sky-high prices
It is known that whether it is opal, diamond or jade like jadeite. There is a world of difference between the price of unprocessed rough and finished products.
A diamond in perfect condition, carved by a master carver, can fetch a sky-high price – because jade was not just a substance, but had risen to the level of a work of art.
Just one rough stone was sold for a sky-high price of 1.5 billion, which is absolutely appalling!
Everyone present was shocked and fanatical. The higher the value of the thing, the more it can attract these gambling stones, which is the so-called high investment and big return!
"Mr. Zhang, how do you sell the wool?" someone asked with concern.
Zhang Man simply stretched out three fingers neatly and said, "Three million!"
Hearing this price, some people showed surprised expressions, some people secretly wondered, and more people had a good showlike mentality - after all, they couldn't afford such a price.
"I know that this price is a bit unaffordable for many people, but there is a reason for high returns due to high returns, and I believe many people who play gambling stones understand it. Can you guarantee that there won't be a better jade than that one here?"
Zhang Man was there to lure.
"I know that this price is a bit unaffordable for many people, but there is a reason for high returns due to high returns, and I believe many people who play gambling stones understand it. Can you guarantee that there won't be a better jade than that one here?"
Zhang Man was there to lure.
Sure enough, after hearing this, many people who were originally undecided were immediately blinded by interests and became excited.
It's all about giving it a go, it's all about luck!
Qin Xuan calmly watched the process of Zhang Man's introduction on the side, and couldn't help but admire this person's marketing methods. With just a few words on his lips, there will definitely be people who will spend a lot of money as soon as their heads are hot.
One of the characteristics of Chinese people is the herd mentality, that is, the herd effect. Once there is an opening, the money will roll in behind it.
"Okay, let's not talk nonsense, let's talk about the rough stone. Zhang Man clapped his palms, and the assistant immediately walked down with the staff. When they reappeared, two truckloads of rough stones had been brought in.
These are two very different batches of rough stones, and the varieties are definitely not the same.
The first batch of rough stones, the shell looks like a stone, the surface is smooth and warm, and each one looks like it contains treasures. Needless to say, this must be the stone from the famous old pit on the western slope.
As for the second batch of rough stones, the appearance is a bit stumbling, piece by piece, black lacquer, or irregular shape. It is like a broken stone that he picked up from the side of the road, and it makes people have no desire to buy it at all.
"Bidding starts now, good luck to all of you and you can return with a full load. After Zhang Man finished speaking, he retreated, picked up a bottle of mineral water and drank it there, but his eyes kept shuttling and looking at everyone.
Now is the time to subscribe freely, if you have the rough stone in the photo, then pick up the jade and come to the little one to pay the money. If you want to cut stones here, then find a knowledgeable master to help cut them. If you want to keep a low profile, you can go anywhere you pay for it. Of course, there is no reason to return and exchange what is sold, this is the rule of gambling stones, and everyone must abide by it.
After only two or three minutes, some guests began to take pictures of the original stones one after another, and then stepped forward to pay the money.
Zhang Man saw that Qin Xuan didn't move, so he said with a smile. "Handsome guy, do you have a fancy for it?"
"I'm not going to play, it's too expensive. "How could Emperor Xuan not see what kind of calculation this woman was making.
"You can play casually, Yi is not short of money. "Since Yi Lele was invited, how could Zhang Man let go of this fat sheep?
"As long as you like, I'll pay. "Yi Lele is very arrogant.
Qin Xuan looked at the lively scene in front of him but was unmoved, but his eyes kept staring at those black rough stones. So far, no one has stepped forward to touch those rough stones, and it is really because these rough stones are so cold, so cold that almost no one wants to believe that this thing can produce that priceless blood-red jade!
Zhang Man was not in a hurry at all, because no one wanted to believe the gambling stone thing at first. However, now, under her promotion, has it also become a new trend in Yudu?
At this time, two people took a fancy to a rough stone at the same time, and they refused to let it, and the two of them were almost at the point of doing it.
Zhang Man hurriedly asked the assistant to come forward to maintain order, which stabilized the scene.
The assistant proposed that the two of them would bid to decide who would go to this rough stone. Both of them are wealthy businessmen in the circle, and now they both want to win this piece of rough that looks very good, so they bid vigorously. Originally, there were only 100,000 pieces of rough stones, but they forcibly raised them to a sky-high price of one million.
In the end, the bald man won the rough stone at a price of 1.35 million, and the whole person smiled proudly.
The man who was not in the bidding complained dissatisfiedly: "Lao Chen, you have been friends with me for decades, for a broken stone?"
"Don't you understand the rules of gambling stones?
"Are you so sure this rough stone can make a good thing?" the other sneered.
Don't forget, the piece of glass jadeite I opened last time sold for more than 8 million. This rough stone is in such good condition, so I think it will definitely be a good thing. Lao Chen confidently put down the flashlight used for searchlight and said.
He stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers, "Brother, find me a jade master." ”
A tall jade master walked in with a toolbox.
Customers who have been playing here for a long time are no strangers to this person, this person is a jade master Zhou, who has been immersed in the jade world for many years, and his skills and vision are first-class.
"Master Zhou, I'm going to trouble you a lot. Lao Chen smiled and handed over a red envelope.
Master Zhou was also polite, accepted the red envelope, and then opened the toolbox.
After seeing this toolbox, Qin Xuan knew why the other party was so professional.
In the toolbox, which did not look very large, there was a strong flashlight for jade identification, a pull-on magnifying glass, as well as homemade iron brushes, sand bars, emery files, angle grinders, and electroplating saws.
There is also a large water cutting machine and a professional oil cutting machine in the corner on the side.
Master Zhou walked to the edge of the jade to be opened, put on the pull-on magnifying glass, and then turned on the strong flashlight to shuttle on the jade, and changed the angle from time to time.
Seeing Master Zhou's movements, that old Chen was both nervous and expectant, but he didn't dare to disturb his work at all.
After a while, Master Zhou put down the flashlight and said lightly.
"The texture of this stone is very good, it is definitely of the highest quality. According to my experience, if there is jade in the opening, it will definitely not be bad in terms of water and seed. ”
Hearing Master Zhou's words, Lao Chen seemed to have taken a reassuring pill, and immediately smiled and said happily.
"Master Zhou, you've bothered. As he spoke, he handed over a red envelope with a thickness of not a small amount.
In fact, a profession like Master Zhou's only receives a basic salary in the gambling stone field, and the main income still depends on the red envelopes of these customers.
Master Zhou received Lao Chen's red envelope, and after weighing the thickness, his facial expression eased slightly: "Don't get in the way, now I'll come to open the jade." ”
Kaiyu, in fact, is Kaishi, this statement is just to make those who gamble on stones feel comfortable.
After all, who wouldn't want to make an emerald gemstone out of the stone they bought?
Lao Chen immediately got out of the way, but it was difficult to hide the appearance of the spring breeze on his face.
The person who finally lost to Lao Chen was resentful in his heart at this time, if he knew that this piece of jade was so sure, then he had to buy this stone for what he just said. There is no regret medicine in the world, and he can only watch it carefully from the sidelines, and buy some lessons.
Master Zhou swept the ash stains off the stone with a brush, and then studied it slowly, grinding it with sand strips from time to time to make the stone, which already looked good, smoother.
Lao Chen almost blossomed with joy, and he was basically sure in his heart that this stone would definitely be able to produce jade. Even someone on the side began to congratulate Lao Chen and congratulate him.
Only Zhang Man sat on the boss's chair, drinking tea with Erlang's legs crossed, and couldn't see anything from her expression at all.
"Mr. Zhang, how sure is this person?" Qin Xuan asked Zhang Man with a grin.
"It's hard for immortals to break an inch, it's hard to say this kind of thing. Zhang Man laughed and laughed. In this industry, the longer he stays, the more Zhang Man feels that the so-called Xiangyu is all nonsense. This kind of thing is completely based on luck, and has nothing to do with those so-called experiences.
When the skin was almost polished, Master Zhou brought a ruler to measure it, and finally chose a point as the entry point. He picked up the drill, adjusted the speed to a more manageable speed, and drilled.
Everyone stood on tiptoe and gathered around to watch, because the most exciting thing about gambling on the stone was this moment! Whether it was Li Kui or Li Ghost, as long as it was opened, it would be clear at a glance.
"It's out of the jade powder, this must be a high-quality jade. ”
Someone with sharp eyes saw that the diamond brought out a trace of jade powder, and shouted loudly. Lao Chen danced happily, because the jade powder came out before it had been a few centimeters in, proving that this piece of jade must be very valuable.
"Master Zhou, slow down, slow down. Lao Chen smiled from ear to ear.
However, Master Zhou frowned slightly, stopped the electric drill, and pulled it out to see the tip of the electric drill. After a long time, he shook his head and sighed: "Boss, I'm afraid this is a piece of waste jade!"
"What?" Lao Chen's eyes widened, completely incredulous.
Some people think it's strange, the other party has opened such a little jade powder, how can it be a waste jade?
Zhang Man seemed to see the man's confusion, and explained in a low voice: "Actually, when the jade is opened, it is not a good thing to bring out the jade powder if you go down for the first time. ”
