Chapter 18: The Strange Stone Workshop
At half past eight in the evening, Wang Zhuo came home with a star and a moon, fortunately now that he has money, he doesn't have to cook hungry, he can pack some meals in the restaurant and come back.
"Your Majesty, there is a Diao people who want to see-"
"Hey, Sister Guan?" Wang Zhuo connected his mobile phone.
Since I don't have a computer at home and I haven't had time to go to an Internet café, this ringtone has not been changed.
"Wang Zhuo, I didn't expect you to be so good." Guan Yingying's tone was tinged with a hint of excitement and cheerfulness.
Wang Zhuo smiled bitterly: "Even you saw that video?" ”
"Yes, I only saw it in the afternoon, you are so powerful, one hit five, and the other party still has a gun." Guan Yingying said quickly: "Is that gun real or fake?" ”
Wang Zhuo didn't correct her numerical mistakes, and said with a smile: "It's a real gun." Today, the criminal police came to the school to find out the whereabouts of the gun. ”
"That's cool!" Guan Yingying asked again: "You are a celebrity now, the information has been fleshed out, you are nicknamed the action director at school, you are one meter seven or eight tall, your blood type is AB type, your constellation is romantic Pisces, you are in the top five in the exam, and your landline number, but I hit it and found that it has been shut down!" ”
Wang Zhuoxin said Damn, human flesh search is so sharp?
In fact, the human flesh search is much sharper than he imagined, and throughout the afternoon today, several outreach calls of the school have been blown up by netizens, chasing stars, pranks, joining in the fun, all kinds of calls, which have seriously affected the normal order of the school.
"The person who recorded this video is also very powerful, he should really go and make a movie." Guan Yingying commented.
In fact, the person who recorded this video is indeed already making a movie, but he is not a director but an actor, and the name of this movie is very familiar to everyone, called "The End of the World".
Possession of firearms is illegal, and buying and selling firearms is punishable by more than three years in prison! The three security guards who recorded the short film not only picked up the gun, but also took it to the antique street and sold it for 5,000 yuan and shared the stolen goods.
Wang Zhuo also knew the origin of the video from Liu Donghao, but he could not have imagined that the security guards who disseminated the video had already faced severe punishment from the state apparatus.
"Sister Guan, are you free tomorrow, how about going to gamble on stones?"
"Okay, I'm just going to go, so I'll pick you up tomorrow morning!"
……
At nine o'clock, Wang Zhuo sat on Guan Yingying's yellow beetle, and the two of them went to the antique street.
Guan Yingying had just received her driver's license, and she didn't dare to chat distractedly when she started driving, so she handed Wang Zhuo a few books on jade and asked him to pass the time.
As soon as I opened the title page of the book, I saw Guan Yingying neatly written the book purchase date with beautiful regular script, it turned out that these books were bought the day before yesterday, it seems that after she gambled on the stone that day, she began to like jadeite.
When the car arrived at the parking lot, Wang Zhuocai asked, "By the way, what gift did your father choose for that elder later?" ”
Guan Yingying parked the car and said with a smile: "I bought a jade Fushou wall, I helped pick it." It's been sent out, and the old man likes it very much. ”
"You helped pick it? Don't meet the ...... of C goods," Wang Zhuo quipped.
"Hey, it looks like you know a lot." Guan Yingying lifted her skirt and got out of the car. "Where are we going?"
"Let's find a big one first."
"Good!"
In this second-tier city of the North China Plain, it is difficult to find a jewelry store that bets on jadeite rough, but in recent years, jadeite has been in full swing, and under the hype of related news and film and television programs, there are really many jewelry stores that have started this business.
The two casually inquired about someone, and they knew that the largest one in the jadeite business was called Qishifang, and the boss's partner was from Yunnan, and he often used trucks to transport wool.
As soon as they entered the strange stone workshop, the two couldn't help but marvel, the scale here was really not small, there were at least thirty counters in the hall, there were more than ten salesmen, and there were several burly security guards, who looked like veterans with combat experience.
Wang Zhuo gave a thumbs up and praised: "It's still good here, look at this posture and be professional!" ”
Guan Yingying nodded: "That's it, don't be in a hurry to see the stone in advance, let's take a look at the finished product and the material first." ”
For Guan Yingying, the crystal clear and gorgeous jadeite finished product is an irresistible temptation, in recent days she is reading books and surfing the Internet, and she has made up a lot of knowledge about jadeite, and today she can finally combine theory with practice.
Guan Yingying's selfless research was gone, and Wang Zhuo's attention was cast on a few less conspicuous counters, bright display cases.
As mentioned earlier, the so-called bright material is the jadeite that has been cut out of the wool, completely showing the details of the water, color and other details, which belongs to the semi-finished product of jadeite, and then the design style on the basis of the clear material, and then cutting, carving, polishing, polishing, before it becomes a beautiful and attractive finished product.
A perfect jadeite, even if it is only the size of a ring, may be worth millions, tens of millions, breathtaking, and its value is reflected in many aspects, beauty, rarity, extraordinary origin, famous origin, and so on.
But for Wang Zhuo, no matter how beautiful the jadeite is, it is just better than glass, and the beauty is beautiful, but it has no practical value, so he turns a blind eye to those jadeite products, but he has a soft spot for the material, because the price of jadeite can be understood through the material, which is of important help to him to gamble on the stone!
"How much does this piece of material cost?" Wang Zhuo pointed to a piece of dark green material the size of a finger's belly, about half a centimeter thick, and asked the salesman next to him.
The salesman's sister had a beautiful face and a lovely smile, and replied very politely: "Hello sir, this piece of Ming material comes from the Myitkyina mining area in northern Myanmar, and it is the material of Laokeng Ice Imperial Green, the size of which can grind an egg noodle with a length of 20 mm and a width of 13 mm, and its price is 400,000 yuan." ”
Thundered! Wang Zhuo felt as if there was thunder in his ears, this finger-sized thing, it dared to be worth 400,000 yuan, the sky was thundering!
"Haha, haha. A bit pricey. Wang Zhuo scratched his head with a smile, this time he didn't dare to refer to the kind of material that stood out from the crowd, and in a box with more than ten pieces of material, he pointed to a triangle and asked, "What about this?" ”
The salesman replied with a smile: "This piece is a waxy flower material, its size is about 30 millimeters long, 20 millimeters wide at its widest point, it can be used to carve a Pixiu, Buddha's hand, or koi fish and other flowers, and its price is 60,000 yuan." ”
This is worth 60,000 yuan? Wang Zhuo asked himself how much he knew about jadeite, and asked unconvinced: "Such a small glutinous seed cyan, is 60,000 yuan a little expensive?" ”
The salesman smiled and explained: "Sir, this piece is an old material from Hpakant, and the performance after processing is incomparable to those new factory materials." ”
Oh, it turned out to be from a famous family, no wonder the price is a little outrageous. Wang Zhuo nodded, and suddenly became interested in the salesman's sister: "Eldest sister, you really don't have to say anything about your professional cultivation, how much money does Qishifang give you a month?" ”
Since it is not a weekend, nor is it a holiday holiday, there are not many customers in the strange stone workshop, but at this time, there are at least three or four salespeople watching Wang Zhuo, a young man who looks like a student, choose materials.
The salesman who received Wang Zhuo covered his mouth and smiled, tried to put away his smile, and said, "Our boss is a good person and has a good treatment. ”
Wang Zhuo saw her left hand on the counter quietly curling three fingers, and suddenly understood that it was two thousand per month.
Pretending not to see it, Wang Zhuo commented: "With your business level and service attitude, I think you can get 4,000 a month!" ”
A twenty-seven or eighteen-year-old sister next to her whispered: "Little brother, I also think she is worth four thousand a month, but I can't earn it here, so why don't you hire her." ”
"I'll think about it." Wang Zhuo smiled and nodded, took out a business card from the business card box on the counter, and put it in his pocket.
