As a market place at the foot of Yuyan Mountain, in normal times, the number of merchants who can come here to purchase is naturally not too small, but it is definitely not too much. After all, on this side of Yuyan Mountain, even if a lot of bloodstone rough stones are mined, not all of them will be sold immediately. Behind most miners, there are bosses, and these bosses have their own companies. Therefore, to a large extent, those large group companies that deal in bloodstone will have their own specific procurement locations.

Of course, in addition to some large companies, many small companies, or self-employed and the like, like to personally send people here to inspect the field, by the way, you can also see the original stone of bloodstone, right?

In addition, there are many people like Jia Nidao and Ah San, who are purely passing by and want to come over to see the origin of bloodstone, or simply come to travel to see the scenery. And after arriving at Yuyan Mountain, there is always a place to stay, so naturally, at the foot of Yuyan Mountain, there will be such a market that seems to be relatively lively.

Looking at the many vendors setting up stalls in the market, Jia Rudao wondered in his heart, is this a kind of 'backing the mountain to eat the mountain'? Together with Ah San, the two approached the house full of expectations, and there was no one standing at the door with a guardian, and the door was directly open, as if anyone could enter.

For this reason, Jia Yidao also deliberately looked left and right, and felt a little surprised in his heart. However, Ah San was very calm, taking the lead, and then said to Jia Rudao: "This place should be a temporary place for loading and unloading bloodstone wool, these people went in just now, they should have come to purchase." ”

"So, it's very simple. Jia Rudao nodded, and looked around again, not to mention the simplicity, Jia Rudao has been to a lot of places in the past few months, especially the underground black market of antiques, the underground casino of gambling stones, and even some remote small households and other places, they have experienced a lot, but, compared to the temporary trading locations here, no matter how you look at it, the places that you have been to before can be regarded as star-level standards.

It's just a row of earthen houses, with two floors, which can be regarded as a whole row. At least in Jia Yidao's opinion, a little wind in such a house is not easy to blow down. There is also a corridor on one side, and in the corridor, there is a long table, and there is an old money detector on the table.

There are no rules when you get started, so when you enter the venue, you can see all kinds of people. Merchants, vendors, and tourists stand in random groups, and only when they choose a location to form a group, will they gather in a group.

Tourists and the like, that is, to be lively, maybe get closer to see the appearance of the bloodstone rough, and the hawkers, even more calmly and calmly stand and watch from afar, at this time they are not in a hurry at all, it is completely a look of a person who has come over, only when someone takes a picture of the bloodstone wool, and is ready to cut it on the spot, they will flock to check the results. Whether or not he can see Bloodstone, this kind of thing can become his talk in the next few days, right?

And the businessmen are naturally a little busy at this time, and they need to get close to the edge of the wool and check it carefully. It's just that if anyone can see that there are blood-red marks on it, then these people who set up simple trading places will not put them out and let others buy them, right?

In general, the composition of bloodstone is composed of two parts: 'earth' and 'blood'.

There is still a big difference between the 'ground' in this and the texture in the jadeite rough. Let's just say that it is the Changhua bloodstone in front of you, and the composition of its 'ground', in terms of mineral composition, is mainly based on the ground stone in clay minerals, and there is also a considerable amount of kaolinite, alum stone, halloysite, quartz, pyrite and so on.

That is to say, even if it is the same bloodstone, the internal mechanism, the fineness of the texture, and even the same type of bloodstone variety, left and right, or above and below, if Jia Yidao uses his own ability perception to detect, the feeling in his mind is not the same.

If this is the case, Jia Rudao naturally has no advantage in the detection of bloodstone compared with most businessmen. However, fortunately, Bloodstone still has a 'blood' part. It is generally believed that the mineral component that forms 'blood' on the rock is mainly cinnabar. As for the specific chemical terms such as mercury sulfide, it is not something that Jia Yidao needs to master.

For example, in addition to the main mineral component of 'chicken blood' is mercury sulfide, it also contains a small amount of color-causing elements iron and titanium, which are some dark dyes, and their content is the main reason for the different red colors of 'chicken blood', and the blood color is dark red if the content is more. This is the thing that affects the price of bloodstone the most. However, Jia Yidao's ability perception is really not much of a way to deal with these so-called 'elements', and he can't sense it, even if he knows it, it's useless.

It is only necessary to know that because of the existence of these elements, especially the presence of other and some photosensitive elements in the bloodstone, it will also cause the 'chicken blood' on the surface of the bloodstone, which will fade or change color under light and heat roasting.

In addition, Jia Yidao needs to pay more attention to the bloodstones that have been cut, and then use the ability perception to probe it well, and feel what kind of perception the 'chicken blood' that has already appeared, which is enough.

In the future, when encountering the same type of bloodstone, whether there is such a similar perception in the wool, you can roughly judge whether there is 'blood' in the wool.

This is also the reason why Jia Yidao spent a night and had to seriously play with all the bloodstones on the 'Zhou Ji' side, right? It's just that the 'blood' of the bloodstone seems to be more weird than the color of jadeite in terms of change. Not only from the color itself, there are bright red, light red, purple red, dark red, etc., which affects its price, and even the blood color attached to the bloodstone, whether it is active.

This kind of judgment that is so meticulous that it is almost refined, but it is far from Jia Yidao's ability perception, which is enough to deal with it.

It's no wonder that before Jia Rudao came to Changhua, his confidence was not so firm when he went to gamble on stones.

……

Jia Yidao glanced at the wool on the ground slightly, and felt that the few pieces placed in this place were a little different from the wool he imagined. Or because when you come in, there is no limit to the inspection of funds, and no one is looking at the field, even if you make it clear that you are not here to do business, you can come in, which further illustrates that the wool that appears in front of you will not have any good performance in itself.

Shaking his head subconsciously, Jia Rudao turned to pay attention to the noble son who came in just now, as well as the young lady Yang. The two of them didn't stand together, although, in Jia Rudao's opinion, the noble son seemed to want to say a few words to Miss Yang, but the falling flowers were intentional and ruthless,......

Uh, Jia Rudao patted his head, feeling that this sentence should be used in reverse, right?

It didn't take long for the owner of the temporary trading place to start struck a few times with a broken gong, and only when everyone's attention was focused on him did he announce the start of the purchase. There are no special rules, that is, a few people lift a piece of wool on the ground, and then, everyone comes up to check it, and then bids.

Whoever has the highest price, the wool is his.

If you encounter a relatively small starting price, such as a few thousand yuan, some tourists will also participate for a while. It was a very lively scene, but I couldn't see Jia Qidao crying and laughing, as if the place in front of me was not like auctioning bloodstone wool, but advertising a certain product in the square.

"Hehe, I really didn't expect that the auction of bloodstone would be such a scene. Ah San, who was on the side, seemed to sense Jia Nidao's mood, and said to Jia Nidao with interest, "You say, should we also join in?"

"Whatever you want. If you want to go, you go. Jia Rudao shook his head slightly, and glanced at Miss Yang and Gui Gongzi over there, those two people still haven't moved, Jia Rudao is not in a hurry.

Generally speaking, in the morning, it is the miners who go to the Kangshan Ridge to mine, and after noon, they choose to return. In general, the benefits of such a day's work are not very large. After all, the mining of bloodstone began in the early days of the Ming Dynasty, at that time, most of the bloodstone was directly exposed on the surface of the rock, the ancients mined according to the principle of thermal expansion and cold contraction, as long as the firewood was burned on the ground with bloodstone, until the rock was all hot, and then poured with cold stream water, the stone was naturally split, and then with simple tools such as shovels, it was easy to dig down the bloodstone.

With this method of mining, cracks rarely appear. As long as the bloodstone has not turned black or darkened before it is mined, then the production of bloodstone is still considerable. And this way of excavation, has also continued to be used in the late Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Republic of China, based on the surface of the exposed bloodstone has been illuminated, and later can only be switched to explosives to blast, and then by hand or machine excavation to dig deeply.

In contrast, the latter is more likely to cause a crack in the bloodstone.

And Jia Yidao pondered, the bloodstone wool placed in front of him should have been excavated from some relatively remote ore veins, right? The bloodstone wool from a really good place would not be auctioned off so easily, nor would it be controlled by some small bosses. If you want to find a piece of superb bloodstone in such a place, the probability is the same as betting on a piece of glass imperial jade in the gambling stone market.

No matter which boss was shouting at the edge of the long table, Jia Rudao felt a little indifferent.

In the end, when it was close to evening, there were a lot fewer onlookers, especially the tourists, who were almost gone. On the contrary, it is the small traders and the like, seeing that there is no business outside, but at this time it is gathering more and more, and like some bloodstone wool specially purchased here, there is not much left at this time, it seems that everyone is looking forward to the excitement in the future!

Finally, a piece of wool, which weighed more than 100 kilograms, was lifted out.

The silent part of the crowd that was present suddenly became active at this moment.

Jia Rudao couldn't help but raise his eyes to look, it was really a good piece of wool. The whole piece of material, showing a gray and cyan feeling, from the 'ground', is still relatively ordinary, but on the surface of the whole stone, it is covered with bright red spots, which is the 'blood' of bloodstone. You know, there are a lot of wool weighing hundreds of kilograms, but such a weight, coupled with such a good performance, is unusual.

It's no wonder that some people who come to buy bloodstone will make some lowly whispers.

Ah San also turned his head to look at Jia Yidao and asked, "How about it, do you want to make a move at this time?"

From the beginning to the present, Ah San has shouted the price twice, but because the enthusiasm of the masses is too strong, the price offered is much higher than Ah San's expectations. Not only wanted to accept the wool, but only at an appropriate price, Ah San was naturally empty-handed. And the sudden appearance of such a piece in front of me is still a lot of 'blood' material that can be seen on the surface of the wool at one time by the organizer.

"Let's see what happens. Jia Rudao said.

There are also some knowledgeable people on the side, explaining to the layman who is exclaiming: "This wool is commonly known as plum blossom blood, you see its 'blood' part, the spots distributed on the surface are more evenly matched. Don't think it's a lot, but if you're ready to bet on more of it, you're going to be disappointed. Because this kind of wool is often the same on the outside, the blood volume will not exceed 30% at most. ”

As the saying goes, the most important thing about bloodstone is naturally 'blood'. The amount of the 'blood' part, as well as the brightness of the 'blood', all determine the true value of the bloodstone.

If the amount of 'blood' is less than 10%, it can only be regarded as average, and less than 30% is mid-range, only more than 30% is considered high-grade, and more than 50% is the treasure of bloodstone, especially those that have reached more than 70%, it is the best of the treasures. It's like the surface is all red, and some people figuratively call it 'big red robe'.

In addition, there are a few specific other names, most of which are comparative images.

"Don't you also think that this kind of wool will be the same on the outside and on the outside, and there is nothing to gamble on, right?" Ah San looked at Jia Yidao with some surprise, and said, "It stands to reason that Xiao Jia is playing jade yourself, and you should be more impulsive than me when you gamble on bloodstone at this time." ”

"You should be impulsive. Jia Rudao smiled bitterly, "Who told you that people who gamble on stones are very impulsive?"

"Isn't it?" Ah San touched his head and said, "I've also bet on the jade rough a few times." However, it is basically a loss. Of course, that's all after the fact. When gambling, a person is enthusiastic. Just follow, just follow ,......"

"It's similar to what you saw just now, right?" Jia said.

"yes, yes. Ah San nodded with deep feeling.

"It seems that you need to come with me to Yunnan next time. At least, you can see the real gambling stone scene, isn't it?" Jia Yidao explained, "On the jade market, there are indeed a lot of bloody scenes, but most of the time, everyone only looks at it and doesn't buy it, and only listens to it. If everyone is so impulsive as you see, then all I can say is that you are still a marginal figure in the gambling industry. ”

Hearing this, Ah San gave Jia Nidao a roll of his eyes, Jia Nidao didn't care, and then said: "The scene in front of you is what the shippers are most willing to see."

If everyone's interest is not high, how can something be auctioned at such a good price? Don't look at it, there are a lot of bidders, maybe there are a lot of trusts. ”

No, this relatively large piece of wool, starting with 30,000, is also so far, one of the few wool with a starting price of more than 10,000, after a short period of silence, and then, after someone shouted the price of 30,000, the price has risen all the way, and at this point, it is already 60,000 80,000.

The boss standing at the edge of the table, his face was clearly smiling at this time, pointing to the merchant who bid 68,000, and at the same time asking everyone loudly if there was a higher bid, trying his best to mobilize the emotions of everyone on the scene.
