"This ...... This is the Jade Plate?"
After entering the mushroom shed building, Fang Yi looked at it, there were tens of thousands of square meters on the ground, neatly arranged into several areas, and there were many stones placed on the ground in each row, Fang Yi roughly estimated, at least tens of thousands of pieces, it looked spectacular at a glance.
There are also many staff wearing red vests in this venue, almost every ten meters, these people are not afraid of someone stealing the rough stones, but the people who are responsible for supervising the inspection, so that they will not damage the materials during the identification.
"That's right, all the stones on the ground are jade rough stones......"
Yu Xuan nodded and said, "Fang Yi, don't look at the ugly appearance of these stones, when they leave here, they will be broken down into pieces of fine jade, and then polished into jewelry and appear in the jewelry store......
Every time Yu Xuan comes to the venue of the Myanmar Jade Public Market, he is in a very good mood, because such a big scene can only appear in Myanmar, the origin of jadeite, like several public markets in China, but it is much smaller than this scene.
"Tens of thousands of stones, three days, it's not easy to see them all......"
Fang Yi glanced at the past, almost everywhere he saw was rough stone wool of different sizes, compared to this huge space, the jade merchants who came in first seemed to be rare, Fang Yi paid attention to it, in this tens of thousands of square meters of venues, there were only forty or fifty people.
Moreover, Fang Yi and the others came relatively late, and the people who came first in the morning had already gone deep into the venue, and there were four of them standing at the entrance, which also seemed to be more and more empty.
"Uncle Yu, where do we start?" Chen Kai is a good hand at business, but he doesn't know anything about the identification of jadeite rough, so he can only pin his hopes on Yu Xuan.
"Where to start......?
Yu Xuan smiled, pointed at Chen Kai and said: "You kid just don't learn and don't know, let you learn the knowledge of jadeite identification, you just don't learn, or you can help me share a little work, look at these tens of thousands of stones, my old life will be half removed......"
Chen Kai came to stock up on raw materials this time, that is to say, he needs to buy some high, medium and low-grade jadeite roughs, and he must mainly buy middle and low-grade jadeite roughs.
In this way, Yu Xuan's workload will be much larger, because as far as the entire public market is concerned, the medium and low-grade materials are the most, compared to the invitation he received before, he only needs to identify high-grade rough wool, Chen Kai's job is undoubtedly a chore.
"Teacher, aren't these materials all jadeite......"
Following Yu Xuan to the side of a stone the size of a millstone, Fang Yi couldn't help but exclaim, because he found that the smooth, mirror-like stone that had been cut showed a lot of speckled green.
"It's jadeite, but the texture is too bad......"
Yu Xuan squatted down, pointed to the smooth surface, and said: "You see that although there is green here, the distribution is very scattered, and the color is not correct, and more importantly, the light cannot penetrate it, which shows that the water is very poor, and jadeite like this can only make some souvenirs of tourist attractions for a few dollars at most......"
Yu Xuan's status in the rivers and lakes of antiques and miscellaneous items and jade identification is definitely not blown out, he identifies jade, not only can distinguish the quality of jade, but also at the same time, Yu Xuan can also roughly deduce the value of this piece of jade in the market after being made into jewelry according to the quality of jade.
Yu Xuan knew that Fang Yi had too little contact with jadeite, and he also intended to teach him on the spot, so he stayed next to these rough stones that he couldn't look at at all for a long time, and explained the advantages and disadvantages of these rough stones to Fang Yi one by one.
There was on-site guidance from a famous teacher, and Fang Yi originally knew some theoretical knowledge of jadeite roughs, these began to look like the same rough stones, and they also had different colors in Fang Yi's eyes, holding a flashlight that Chen Kai had just bought, Fang Yi followed Yu Xuan and watched with relish.
As the saying goes, the layman looks at the liveliness, and the insiders look at the doorways, Fang Yi just now saw the liveliness, but now he sees some doorways.
After looking at it for a while, Fang Yi found that most of the materials placed at the door were of poor quality, and the price on the bottom sign in front of the materials was also very low, there was a rough stone with two or three hundred catties, and the bottom of the label was only a few hundred dollars.
"Uncle Yu, if we look at it like this, we won't be able to see much material in the past three days......"
Yu Xuan took Fang Yi to look at it all the way slowly, the two of them were elated to teach and learn, but Chen Kai couldn't stand it, an hour had passed, and he had only seen less than twenty pieces of material in total, at this rate, this was full of tens of thousands of rough stones, and they were not allowed to look at it for a month or two.
"Yes, what about my disciple brother, you won't be happy first......" Yu Xuan glared at Chen Kai angrily, if he really let Yu Xuan rank one, two, or three in his heart, he would definitely rank Fang Yi first.
"Teacher, I already know the planting water of the jade rough wool, the material here is too bad, let's go and see a little better......"
Hearing Chen Kai's words, Fang Yi was also a little embarrassed, after all, they spent a lot of money to invite Yu Xuan to come over to help identify and buy the rough stones, and they couldn't delay other people's business by studying by themselves.
And Fang Yi's current cognition of jadeite is also a little bit of a doorway, he knows that there are two main factors that determine the quality and price of jadeite, one is the water of jadeite, and the second is the color of jadeite.
Although the seed water of jadeite is read together, it is two related but different concepts, the so-called seed head, refers to the purity of jadeite, that is, the size of the crystal particles in the internal structure of jadeite, the smaller the particles, the higher the density, the better the seed head.
The industry usually divides the seed head into different types such as glass species, ice species, egg white species, glutinous species, horse tooth species, bean seeds, etc., and there is a kind called dry green species under the bean seeds, but the jadeite is almost the same as the stone, and basically no one will buy it.
Most of the raw stone materials that Yu Xuan took Fang Yi to see just now are bean seeds and horse tooth seeds, many of them are gray and white, simple stones, and mixed with some light green and brown colors, the overall transparency is very poor, and they can only make some low-end jewelry.
As for the water head of jadeite, it refers to the transparency of jadeite, generally speaking, jadeite with a good seed head, the water head will also be very good, so the water will often be put forward together, of course, there are also jadeite with a good head and a poor water head, and the value of such materials is usually not very high.
According to Yu Xuan's words, the quality of the water directly determines the quality and value of the jadeite, and their prices may differ by a thousand times or more.
Fang Yi had already looked at the lowest grade of rough stones just now, most of these rough stones were cut in half, it was very intuitive to see, Fang Yi now wanted to see the slightly higher quality materials, so he didn't want to stay more in these low-grade wool materials.
"Hmm, just after looking at these pieces of material, you dare to say that you know how to grow jadeite?"
Hearing Fang Yi's words, Yu Xuan's face showed a look of dissatisfaction, and he immediately pointed to a piece of material under his feet and said, "What kind of water do you see this piece of?" If you're right, I'll take you to another area......
Since Yu Xuan agreed to help Chen Kai buy the goods, he naturally wouldn't delay the business, but he was also ready to use the day today to teach Fang Yi first, but Fang Yi's words just now made Yu Xuan feel that he was a little not too calm.
"This piece of material?"
Fang Yi didn't feel that the teacher's feelings were a little wrong, but focused his attention on the wool around him, which was also a rough stone with a gray and white background, weighing about three hundred catties, and the cut surface was mixed with some green spots, after Fang Yi squatted down, he pasted the strong light flashlight on the cut surface of the rough stone, and carefully observed it.
"It's like a horse tooth, but how does it give people a jelly feeling?"
Fang Yi's eyesight is not comparable to ordinary people, through the bright light of the strong flashlight, he found that although the surface of this piece of material is not very good, but about two centimeters inside, it gives people a glutinous feeling.
"This is a piece of glutinous material......" Fang Yi's mind suddenly popped up with this term, and he couldn't help but say it.
"Huh, you read that right?"
Hearing Fang Yi's words, Yu Xuan and Chen Kai were stunned, although the glutinous seed is not a very good material, but the market price is much higher than that of the horse tooth seed and the bean seed, and it can be regarded as a big leak to be able to encounter a piece of raw stone wool of the glutinous seed in this area.
