On the first floor of Jade City is a hall of thousands of square meters, and there is nothing else in the hall except for jade rough stones. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
Pieces of jadeite rough stones like small mountains are clearly priced, and there are some small ones that are placed in different price areas according to grades.
Luo Hebin was a little stunned when he looked at this dazzling jade rough, touched the money in his pocket, and suddenly lost his momentum, wandering around paradoxically, and from time to time using perspective to observe whether there would be unexpected surprises.
Gambling stone or gambling goods refers to the jadeite when it is mined, there is a layer of weathered skin wrapping, can not know the quality of the jadeite, must be cut to know the quality of the jadeite called gambling stone. The jadeite produced in the old factory has skin, but the waterstone jadeite produced in the riverbed is also the old factory jade, and the skin is very thin or skinless. Most of the jadeite produced in the new factory has no skin, but it is produced in the slope layer. The thickness of the skin mainly depends on the degree of weathering, and the higher the degree of weathering, the thicker the skin. The skin of a piece of jadeite raw material is colored, the surface is very good, and the green is seen when the first knife is cut, but the green is not there when the second knife is cut, which is also a common thing. Where you leave the jadeite mine, the bet is only 1 in 10,000 (referring to the pigment), and the chance of gambling in the jadeite mine is much higher. Gamble to rise and get rich overnight, but the vast majority end in failure. Advice to jade players to be cautious when gambling on stones.
Unprocessed jadeite rough is called "wool". In the jadeite trading market, the wool is also called "stone", the green wool is called "color goods", the green uneven wool is called "flower brand material", and the large wool without high emerald is called "brick material". The jadeite wool that is wrapped in a leather shell as a whole, and is not cut or opened (also known as the door opener) is called "gambling stone", or "gambling goods". The outer skin of the gambling stone is wrapped in a thin or thick original stone skin, and different gambling stones have different colors, red, yellow, white, black, and mixed colors. The most lucrative and tempting jade trade, but also the most risky, is the gambling stone. There is a saying in the jewelry world: gambling on stones is like gambling on life.
This is Luo Hebin saw the introduction of the jade rough stone in the hall, and he didn't feel much, after all, he didn't rely on this to eat, and he could see through, so naturally there was no so-called risk.
"Sir, may I ask what you need?" a receptionist in a white cheongsam asked softly.
These receptions are naturally responsible for receiving the local tyrants who come to gamble on stones, and one thousandth of the transaction amount will also become their commission, don't underestimate this thousandth, the one who comes here is not tens of thousands of gamblers, this commission is enough to make them work hard.
Luo Hebin was wearing old clothes and carrying a black dog, but he didn't expect that there would be a receptionist who took the initiative to find him, and he was a little flattered.
"Is there a cheap rough stone in that area? It's about a kilogram or so. Luo Hebin smiled.
The beautiful lady had a professional smile on her pretty face, "Please come with me here." ”
In this kind of place, no one has ever met, multimillionaires who ride bicycles and wear patched clothes, primary school students who are keen on gambling on stones because their families have money at a young age, and even some strange animals will come to choose the original stone, as for the image of Luo Hebin, it is very in line with those who pretend to be pigs and eat tigers, look at the bright hair of the black dog, you know that it is not an ordinary breed.
Luo Hebin and the roaring dog didn't know about the wrong love for the reception of the beauties, but the pile of jade rough stones in the front corner caught Luo Hebin's eyes.
Luo Hebin looked like a veteran here, squatting on the ground and picking up a piece of rough stone and kept looking, the howling dog was not interested, and the big black head looked around, probably looking for the figure of the little......
Squatting on the ground and pretending to be for a long time, I didn't see a good stone, sure enough, it was cheap and not good, but when I thought that I could only afford cheap ones, I didn't complain, after all, I had no money to accept my fate.
The stones on the ground are of different sizes and colors, but are they different from the broken stones by the river in my hometown?
Luo Hebin raised the original stone in his hand and looked at it, looked and looked, and couldn't see that there was jade in it at all, the only way to use perspective was to find out, open the perspective, there was a touch of imperceptible gold in his eyes, and the lines were slowly revealed as far as the eye could see, there was no green at all, only the bottom edge of the stone was as black as ink.
Luo Hebin was disappointed and put the original stone on the ground at will, and then prepared to look at another piece, but at this time, the roaring dog came slowly, flicked the stone that Luo Hebin put on the ground just now with his paws, and said, "Just buy this piece, there is ink jade in it, and the price is not low." ”
Luo Hebin put down the rough stone in his hand, picked up the stone he had put down just now, got up and said, "I want this, can you help me weigh it?"
"The child has no money and still comes out to learn other people's gambling stones? You don't work hard to study, a piece of black water rock can produce jade?" Just after Luo Hebin spoke, a disdainful voice sounded.
Luo Hebin ignored it, there are always a few strange people who like to jump out of the BB two sentences, and he is not a dog, so he naturally won't bite him...... Thinking of this, Luo Hebin couldn't help but peek at the Howling Sky Dog next to him who didn't know it.
But Gaul is not happy, just spent 30,000 yuan to open a waste stone out, how can he not be angry, he naturally needs to vent when he is angry, and other rich and powerful people can't afford to provoke him, but this obviously poor boy is not angry as much as he wants, but people actually ignore his own existence.
"If you can cut jade out of this stone, I will give you 10,000 pieces even a little bit, but if there is nothing, then you can strip me naked and go around the jade city. "Gallic is domineering.
"Are you sure?"
"Naturally. ”
"Well, I'll bet you to cut the stone. Luo Hebin lagged behind in his voice and went straight to the stone-cutting place with the reception, and Gaul, who regarded this as a pleasure, naturally did not lag behind and followed behind.
Luo Hebin handed over the rough stone in his hand to the stone cutter, the master put the rough stone on the workbench, picked up the tool and prepared to cut the stone, Luo Hebin was afraid that the jade in it would be cut, and reminded kindly, "Master, the jade is on the lower edge, you can cut it there directly." ”
Master Shi Shi glanced at Luo Hebin, his face was displeased, thinking that he was a professional, and he still wanted a little kid to teach?
Gaul even sneered, thinking that it was indeed a newborn calf that was not afraid of tigers.
The stone cutter ignored Luo Hebin's reminder and began to cut the stone according to his original fortunate idea.
The chainsaw slowly fell on the rough stone, cutting off the stone skin little by little, revealing the stone tire inside, still no jade, like a black pimple, obviously a stone that is too ordinary to be ordinary.
The stone cutter opened a few layers of stone skin, but there was still no meaning of jade, rinsed with water, and irradiated with strong light, which was not transparent at all.
The stone cutter closed the machine and said, "Waste stone, there is no jade in it." ”
"Are you sure?" said Gaul.
"Hmm. The stone cutter said.
Gaul turned to look at Luo Hebin behind him, and said helplessly, "Alas, I didn't want to embarrass the children, but I am willing to lose the bet, and you can excuse yourself." ”
