Chapter 118: The Glass Species with Ten Heads of Water

"Where did all this wool come from?" Li Ning didn't know anything about this, so he asked very seriously.

"Some of them were shipped from Burma, and the stuff is very cheap over there, but these monkeys have been getting smart lately. Others were dug under the river. Li Weidong explained.

"In other words, no matter how experienced a person is, he may also go bankrupt with a knife?" Li Ning followed him to a stall and stopped.

"That's right. This is Master Zhang, who has been in the top ten in Rongqing for 30 years. Li Weidong nodded, and then introduced to the old man who was over sixty years old next to him.

"Master Zhang. Li Ning bowed slightly, which was considered to have said hello.

"Boss Li, who is this?" Master Zhang asked while looking at it, a little surprised in his heart, it was the first time he saw the big boss so polite to a young man.

"This is my little brother Ning Shao, he came for the first time, and he doesn't know how to gamble. Li Weidong said with a smile.

"It turned out to be Ning Shao. The two of them can rest assured, if they don't understand, just ask, know everything, people are old, they just like to teach young people something. Master Zhang smiled and nodded.

"Just look at it casually, do you just choose it?" Li Ning looked at Master Zhang.

"This is our own wool, since you are your own person, you can take a piece and play with it. As for other places, you'll have to pay for them. Master Zhang replied.

"Oh, I thought it was all ours here!" Li Ning was a little surprised.

"Hahaha-my brother looks up to my brother too much!" Li Weidong laughed when he heard it.

"No, we're just a part of the whole gambling market, and the competition is fierce. Master Zhang shook his head.

"That's right, not only do we sell wool, but we also buy jade that someone else has bought and has already been cut. Li Weidong said after laughing.

"Pretty much understood. Li Ning nodded.

"The bidding meeting will start for a while, so why don't you come and have a piece of fun!" Li Weidong pointed to the various strange-shaped stones placed on the stall.

"That's right, Ning Shao will come together, maybe you will be lucky and get off to a good start!" Master Zhang echoed.

"Isn't the door green!" Li Ning joked.

"Hahaha-"

"Yes, yes, yes...... It's green!"

"I'd rather see through with less!"

Listen to his answer.

Li Weidong, Master Zhang, and the people around him all laughed out loud.

Very happy.

"Then I'll pick a piece. Li Ning squatted down with a smile, and then began to choose in front of the stall.

"The size doesn't matter, so you can't think that a big stone will produce jadeite. Master Zhang hurriedly squatted down to remind.

Li Ning squinted his eyes slightly, grabbed a palm-sized stone with his right hand, and played with it carefully.

The surface of the stone is very rough, and there are many clods of soil and gravel, which are embedded in it, so it is difficult to clean off.

At this moment, his mind moved, and his consciousness reached out from the inside out, enveloping the stone.

Layer by layer.

The internal structure of the stone immediately comes to mind.

The shallow layers are gravel, and the deeper layers are stone crusts.

But in the deepest part, in the very middle, a crystal clear shimmer flickered.

"There's material. Li Ning's eyes lit up, and he couldn't imagine that he would try it casually, but he would really succeed.

"Did Ning Shao choose this piece?" Li Weidong couldn't help asking.

"Hmm. Li Ning nodded and stood up.

"This stone is pointed at the top and round at the bottom, there are no pine flowers or pythons, just a very ordinary piece of wool. Master Zhang observed for a while and shook his head.

"It's okay, even if it's not expected, it's just fun. Li Ning shrugged indifferently.

"That's right, happiness is the most important thing, Xiao Liu took it and cut it. Li Weidong took the wool and handed it to the short young man next to him who had been silent.

Then, Master Zhang began to introduce how to cut stones.

The first part is to remove the sand skin, use a water gun to nourish, simply clean it and cut it with a water knife.

When the sand skin and stone crust on the surface are removed, you can see the 'flesh' inside.

As the surface is cut off layer by layer.

The stone, which was originally the size of a palm, gradually became only the size of an egg.

Both Master Zhang and Li Weidong were a little impatient.

It's just that for the sake of face, I waited patiently.

"Ning Shao, don't be angry if you don't come out this time, gambling stones are like this. Master Zhang comforted in advance.

"That's right, that's right, wait for the bidding to start, and my brother will take you to see the real gambling house, that's called a thrill." Li Weidong nodded in agreement.

"There's material. But at this moment, Xiao Liu, who cut the stone, suddenly exclaimed.

"Huh?"

"What?"

"What's wrong?"

Li Weidong and Master Zhang were stunned for a moment, and then looked at them hurriedly.

Xiao Liu raised his wet hand, looked at the three of them and said, "It's a glass species!"

"Show it to me?" Master Zhang was dumbfounded, and hurriedly stepped forward to take it.

It is an oval-shaped jade, crystal clear, and the water head is very sufficient.

Master Zhang held it up to the sun, squinted his eyes through the sunlight, and found that he could see the fingers on the other side.

Moreover, this jade is also fluorescent.

"How is Lao Zhang?" Li Weidong couldn't help but ask.

"It's really a glass species, this thickness, this water head, Ning Shao is blessed!" Master Zhang swallowed, and then handed over the jade with an embarrassed face.

"Brother can! The first time I chose a stone, Lao Zhang was blind, and there was even a very watery glass species!" Li Weidong took it in his hand and looked at it, and couldn't help but give a thumbs up.

"How's the glass species?" Li Ning asked with a slight smile.

"Although it is not as good as imperial green, it is still good to decorate the glass after carving, and the price of a piece of this size is about a few hundred to thousands. Li Weidong estimated.

"That's right, if it was a little thinner, I thought it was an ice seed!" Master Zhang shook his head helplessly.

"How do you distinguish between ice and glass and imperial green?" Li Ning suddenly became interested in gambling stones.

Relying on his own ability, he can completely find out what kind of jade jade is inside.

Maybe you can make a lot of money from this gambling stone mark.

Although there is no shortage of money, no one is afraid of lack of money.

"Fluorescent. Li Weidong replied.

"That's right, fluorescence is one thing, as long as it fluoresces, it's the glass species. It is very transparent, but it does not have strong fluorescence and is the ice type. ”

"To put it simply, jadeite also has a problem of thinness, the thinner it is, the more transparent it will be, which is especially important for ice and glass. Some jadeite merchants often make the ice jadeite very thin, and then inlay it with K gold, and the reflective side supports the bottom, so that the ice jadeite will look like a glass species. Therefore, the distinction between ice and glass must be based on a certain thickness.

Then there's transparency. Generally, the permeability of the glass species is extremely high, just like glass, but it does not lose the truth of jadeite. And the ice species is like an ice cube, that is, there is no glass to penetrate the jade, but there is still a good water head.

After that, it is necessary to see if there is white cotton. The inside of the glass species is clean and as pure as glass, and the inside of the ice species jadeite generally has obvious white cotton, and the cotton and structure are clear and distinct.

As for the imperial green, also known as emerald, the green one will drip out of the water, which is the best. For example, Feng Youjing has seen it, right? Something like that!" Master Zhang explained.

"Sounds like a bit of a hassle. Li Ning nodded as if he didn't understand.

"Actually, to determine whether it is a glass type, experienced people can take a look at it under the sun. Master Zhang said.

"Just like you did before?" Li Ning suddenly said.

"Yes, Ning Shao, you just need to remember one thing, to reach the thickness of your jade, and there is also a strong fluorescence, this is a very watery glass species. Master Zhang nodded.

"Brother, seeing that you are so interested, do you want to come again? Brother doesn't believe that you can still be selected this time!" Li Weidong handed the glass seed to him.

Li Ning played with the glass seed in his hand and said with a smile: "Then try again!"

However, just as he was about to squat down, four or five people suddenly walked over next to him.

The leader is a middle-aged man with a Chinese face, a bald head, and a serious expression.

There were several young people in their early twenties.

"Yo, Li Zhu is lying again?" the middle-aged man mocked.

"Mid-week elephant, why are you everywhere? Get away!" Li Weidong's face suddenly became difficult to look at when he heard this.

"Where am I going, it doesn't seem like it's your turn to point fingers, right?

"Then what qualifications do you have to point fingers in front of me?" Li Weidong suddenly exploded as soon as he heard the words 'former president', and glared at him without showing weakness.

"Don't talk about those useless ones, I'm afraid that when the bidding will be held later, someone will lose and shed tears. Zhou Zhongxiang scoffed.

"You won last time, but this time doesn't mean you can continue to win, I invited Lao Zhang. Li Weidong said fiercely.

"I hope so, otherwise I'll be tired of it, it's too easy to win you. Zhou Zhongxiang glanced at the silent Master Zhang and shrugged.

"Don't talk about those useless ones, I'll see you at the bidding. Li Weidong waved his hand suddenly, looking impatient.

"Then we'll see. In the middle of the week, the elephant laughed and led people to leave along the way.

"Damn!" Li Weidong gritted his teeth and looked at the back of the other party's departure.

"What's wrong with my brother?, does the standard still bring gambling?" Li Ning looked at him in surprise.

"We and the Zhou family are both in the jewelry industry, which is a competitive relationship, and this force and I have always been at odds with each other. He opened twenty catties of emeralds at the bidding meeting last year, and Lao Tzu looked away, but only got a fifteen-pound glass seed. In addition, we have bet before, and the loser votes for the other party when competing for the president of the jewelry. So last year, Lao Tzu was really miserable. Not only was he ridiculed, but he also had to buy his piece of imperial green for 13 million, which was despised by many people in the industry. This year, if I lose again, not only will the money be gone, but my face will be gone, and the position of guild president will be his. Li Weidong said indignantly.

"I see. Li Ning suddenly realized.

"Boss Li rest assured, this time he will do his best. Master Zhang said seriously.

"I'm sure I'm relieved to have you. Li Weidong took a deep breath and gradually calmed down.

"Brother, tell me about the gambling situation! Maybe I'm your lucky star!" Li Ning looked at him curiously, and then blinked mischievously.

"Uh-" Li Weidong was stunned for a moment.
