Chapter 20 Wool
The flow of people in the jewelry store is not too large, so Zhang Ping's actions easily attracted everyone's attention.
Behind every counter in the jewelry store, there was almost a well-dressed staff member, and in the moment that Tian Meimei left, he had already begun to whisper to each other.
"Look at that man, the speed of picking jade is so fast. A girl who was about the same age as Tian Meimei was quietly talking to the little friend next to her, "Do you say that he really picked the jade with his eyesight, or did he choose a few pieces randomly." ”
The water in the jade industry is very deep, there are fakes, some are shoddy, even those masters who have been immersed in this industry for decades, there are times when they are eye-catching, so she has this question.
"I think he seems to have picked it casually, pretending to be confident, do you think he fell in love with Mei Mei, so he deliberately behaved so generously?" The girl next to him was a little older, and they couldn't really see it from a distance, of course I didn't believe that Zhang Ping's eyesight had reached such a level, as for the last sentence, it was purely the fire of gossip ignited between girls.
Not far from them, there was a middle-aged woman, this middle-aged woman's eyesight was much stronger than theirs, even if it was so far away, he could still see a rough idea.
"This young man is not simple, the jade he picked, almost all of them are of the best quality in the tray, I didn't expect that there are people at a young age, they can have this eyesight, it seems that his family is either rich or expensive, so he can deal with these things since he was a child. The middle-aged woman came up with an answer that she thought was correct, and smiled at the two young girls: "If you don't go up to get to know each other, you can't say that you can live the life of Mrs. Kuo without worrying about food and clothing in the second half of your life." ”
"Sister Lin, what are you talking nonsense......" The two girls were so embarrassed that their faces were flushed, but they had to say that when they looked at Zhang Ping again, there was indeed a strange look in their eyes.
Although Zhang Ping was deaf and clear-sighted, he didn't have the heart to listen to their whispers, one hand supported his chin, and the other hand was boringly tapping on the counter with his fingers.
Fortunately, Tian Meimei didn't let him wait long, so Tian Meimei came out with another tray, and there were fewer jewels in this tray, only three pieces.
Tian Meimei has already regarded Zhang Ping as an insider, so she no longer uses the same set to deal with ordinary guests, but directly introduces Zhang Ping to the three pieces of jade jewelry in the tray.
"This is an aquamarine, and it sells for 90,000 yuan in our store. ”
She first picked up the blue gem, this gem is brilliant and restrained, the blue color seems to attract people's eyes, it is indeed of very good quality.
"This piece is a floating flower jadeite of the high ice species, and it is also about the same price. ”
And Tian Meimei picked up a jadeite next, and the blue-green flocculent in it was like snow.
"The price of this piece of mutton fat white jade is slightly more expensive, sir, you look at this pattern, is it faintly forming a 'Buddha' word, this is a good sign, and the jade quality is very good, and the whiteness is also good, so it is sold for 130,000 yuan." ”
And this mutton fat white jade is the worst quality of the three items in Zhang Ping's eyes, as for the Buddha character, it is just a gimmick, and it is worthless in Zhang Ping's eyes.
But that sapphire and that jadeite, although slightly better than this piece of mutton fat white jade, are still a little insufficient to serve as the core of the spirit gathering disk.
"Sir, aren't you satisfied?" Tian Meimei saw that Zhang Ping didn't have an unmoved look on his face, and said, "We have other kinds of jade here, I'll show you again?"
"No, let's put these up for now. Zhang Ping pointed to the eight pieces he had picked out earlier.
He knew that at the current price, he couldn't buy jade that satisfied him, but he couldn't afford to buy a really good quality, and it seemed that the matter of urging the Spirit Gathering Disk needed to be slowed down a little longer.
Zhang Ping said so, of course, Tian Meimei couldn't insist anymore, and besides, she had only just started working for a short time, and she hadn't been trained to the extent that she was cheeky and constantly selling to customers.
However, when Tian Meimei was packing those jades, Zhang Ping also began to wander around the jewelry store.
The staff behind the counter all had bright eyes, hoping that Zhang Ping would stop in front of their counter, but unfortunately Zhang Ping just glanced at the counter and left quickly, which made them quite disappointed.
"Huh?"
Zhang Ping found nothing, and was about to return to pay when his eyes were drawn to a window in front of the jewelry store, which was stacked with a pile of irregularly shaped stones, which seemed out of place with the jewels of this jewelry store.
"These are the rough wool materials flowing out of the jade market, although they don't look very good, but they are all pulled back from Myanmar, maybe you can cut out the materials that are good for planting water, do you want to buy a piece to try?" Tian Meimei noticed Zhang Ping's gaze, and immediately greeted him again at this time, and introduced to Zhang Ping.
What we often call gambling stones is actually the jade of gambling.
When the jadeite is mined, there is a layer of weathered skin wrapping, with the current technology, it is not possible to see the jadeite inside through the stone skin, so the jade merchant will sell the wool, and the person who buys the wool will naturally rise sharply if he can cut out a good jadeite, but most of the gambling stone industry is a lot of money invested in it, and finally ended up empty-handed.
One sword to heaven and one knife to hell, only a very small number of people can go to heaven.
Listening to Tian Meimei's meaning, these stones piled here are the wool materials that have the potential to cut out jadeite.
However, when Zhang Ping looked at the almost uniform price, he shook his head and laughed, and directly debunked: "I think these are all wool and leftovers that can't be sold in the jade market, and they are put here by you to fool customers who don't know how to do it." ”
It's not that Zhang Ping understands this, he just thinks a little from the perspective of these businessmen, and he can come up with a general answer.
These small means, in the eyes of Zhang Ping, who has lived for an unknown number of years, are still too tender.
"Sir is really discerning. Tian Meimei smiled awkwardly, but still said: "The performance of these wool materials looks bad, but they are indeed mined from the Burmese jade mine, no one can say for sure, anyway, it is only 10,000 yuan of wool, and everything has produced the best jade?
Zhang Ping didn't answer her words, wrapped a thin wisp of spiritual power around his fingers, and stretched out his hand to go over each piece of wool, Zhang Ping just had the intention of trying it, but after he touched three pieces of wool, he stagnated when he was in the fourth piece.
He could feel that the wisp of spiritual power wrapped around his fingers was directly sucked into it by the stone.
Looks like I'm in luck!
Zhang Ping's eyes lit up, he took out the piece of jade wool, handed it to Tian Meimei, and said, "Pack this for me too." ”
"Yes sir. Tian Meimei smiled sweetly, Zhang Ping bought things from her, she had a share, the more Zhang Ping bought, the happier she was.
Wrap all the jade, including the piece of wool.
"A total of 110,000. Tian Meimei said.
