Following in Uncle Zhou's footsteps, Jia Rudao entered the back room. And Ah Li in the lobby seemed to be thinking that there should be no guests coming for such a little time, so she also followed behind Jia Yidao, wanting to see if the wool of these two thousand yuan could be cut out of jade, or just a waste stone.

Contrary to Jia Yidao's expectations, the space in the back room is not inferior to the lobby, and the gray-purple tables, chairs, bookshelves, cabinets, etc. all seem to be so simple and elegant. Not to mention those few pieces = specially placed porcelain, it gives people the feeling of how delicate and dignified, just a series of saucers and teapots placed on the coffee table, Jia Rudao can't call the authentic name.

"Uncle Zhou, right here?" Jia asked in surprise. The furnishings in the back room don't look like they're used to cut stones, but they're more like a place for hospitality. There is a kind of elegance everywhere. Even a person like Jia Yidao, who consciously has no elegant sentiments, can't help but have a deeper understanding and yearning for the word 'style' after coming to such a room.

"Here?" Uncle Zhou turned his head to look at Jia Nidao and said, "You want to." As he spoke, he did not stop, but instead went around a wooden screen, and walked further, and in a few steps, he came to another rather small room.

At this time, Jia Rudao understood it.

The room could only fit two beds, which was basically the same size as the room that Jia Yidao rented. There were also some oddly shaped stones piled up in the corner, oh no, it should be wool. But Jia Rudao took a cursory glance, but found that the wool here was a little different from the one placed in the lobby outside, and it should not belong to the jade wool.

There are also a lot of tools on the side, which is quite messy. On the ground, there is even some dust that has not been cleaned.

"Tell me, you wool, how do you want to cut it. Uncle Zhou said to Jia Rudao.

"What's so special about this cut wool?" Jia seemed to be puzzled.

"You really don't know how to say hello. Jia Yidao's inquiry, it seemed that even Ali who was standing on the side couldn't look at it, and couldn't help but explain, "The texture of jadeite rough is relatively hard, especially the precious wool, and it is generally necessary to ask professional personnel to cut it with professional tools." However, this piece of your hand," said Ali, glancing at Uncle Zhou, "just ask a semi-professional like my father to cut it for you, it's enough." Of course, you can also try it yourself. ”

"Do it yourself?" Jia said, a little eager to try. However, this is his first gambling stone, and if he says that he is not nervous, it is false. This thing is similar to the nature of buying a lottery ticket, the only difference is that Jia Rudao is more sure of winning the lottery. Even so, don't look at Jia Yidao, who is quite calm on the surface, but he is unusually apprehensive in his heart.

"I'd better forget it. Uncle Zhou, please excuse me. Jia Rudao said, holding the wool in both hands and handing it to Uncle Zhou.

"Put it on the ground. Uncle Zhou's voice made it impossible to hear what the attitude was, "However, since this wool is already yours, I'll ask clearly." When you cut the stone, do you follow my opinion, or do you do it according to your own requirements?"

This is Uncle Zhou's cleverness as a businessman.

When the wool has not been cut, no one knows whether there is jadeite in it. If it is because he insists on going his own way, when he cuts, something goes wrong, and then he cares about it, it will be unclear.

"Just do what you want. Jia Rudao felt that he didn't know anything anyway, and he vaguely felt that it seemed that he had used his ability a little too much just now, and his head was a little swollen. This made Jia Yidao a little anxious, and he couldn't wait to cut the wool immediately, take out the jadeite, and then go home and sleep well.

"Then you just stand on the side and wait. Uncle Zhou is not surprised by Jia Nidao's decision, if Jia Nidao really wants to do it himself, it can only mean that Jia Nidao himself is not interested in this piece of wool.

Maybe it was because he saw Jia Yidao's nervousness, or because although this piece of wool was small, it was still agreed with Yanran, Uncle Zhou was cautious, and he was still ready to study it carefully first, and then consider where to go under the knife. However, such a move, in Jia Yidao's view, although serious and responsible, is a waste of too much time. Jia Rudao was really worried that he might be confused, so he fell to the ground and fell asleep.

On the contrary, Ali waited on the side without any impatient expression.

What Jia Rudao didn't know was that cutting stones was actually a science. If you really have to study it carefully, now Uncle Zhou's approach is much more simplified. Many people who gamble on stones, after buying wool, do not cut it directly, but also need to rub the stone to reduce the risk. Sometimes it will go up and can change hands at a high price, and sometimes it will fall sharply after rubbing the stone.

However, rubbing up is not rising. The value of any wool can only be clarified after it is unraveled.

Uncle Zhou is not a person who has been immersed in gambling all year round, and Jia Nidao's wool is really cheap, so there is no need to be so particular.

"Uncle Zhou, I think so, what about me, there is still something to do, this wool, it is better to cut it in half directly from the middle, there is it, there is none, it is clear at a glance. Jia Rudao casually found a reason and said to Uncle Zhou.

"Are you really sure you want to cut it in the middle?" Uncle Zhou was a little curious about Jia Rudao's sudden change, "If there is a good jade inside, this knife will be broken." ”

It seems that only when faced with inferior goods, or leftovers, will they choose to cut directly from the middle.

Otherwise, jadeite is not a watermelon, how can you say how to cut, how to cut.

"Look, that's what I thought. Whether there is a so-called jadeite in this wool, I don't know for the time being. Even if there is, I'm afraid it's not a valuable jadeite. Jia Rudao said, "So, I thought it would be better to cut it directly with a knife, which would be more refreshing." ”

"It's fine. Uncle Zhou seemed to understand Jia Yidao's scruples, so he nodded and agreed.

This gambling stone, for the test of the heart, is absolutely world-class. The so-called "one knife is poor, one knife is rich", which is exactly the case. If you don't have a good heart, especially if a young person like Jia Yidao participates in gambling for the first time, most of them will not be able to adapt to it.

Jia Rudao was afraid that Uncle Zhou would cut the jade that was not big in half with a knife, so he made a comparison on the wool and let Uncle Zhou just cut it on the horizontal middle line, so that the small piece of jadeite in the wool itself was a little biased, which could be seen completely from the cut surface.

Uncle Zhou didn't say much about Jia Yidao's suggestion, anyway, this half-cut work really has no technical content at all.

As the sound of the grinding wheel clattering stopped, one piece of wool suddenly became two. The action is clean, the incision is smooth, and smooth. It is enough to show Uncle Zhou's strength in knife work.

Jia Rudao stretched out his hand and took the half piece containing jadeite, until he saw that there was indeed a green jadeite on the cut surface, and the heart hanging in his heart could be regarded as falling.
