Chapter 490: It's Glass
"We're not a gold shop here." When the young woman heard that she was not buying something, her tone suddenly became much colder.
"Jewelry with jadeite, do you accept it?" The middle-aged man spoke quietly, but he didn't feel inferior.
"Ugh." The young woman hesitated for a moment, "Let's take it out and take a look first!" ”
The middle-aged man took out a rectangular royal blue flannel box from the shabby leather bag he was carrying and placed it on the counter.
Tang Yi stared at the box, the box was neat, but it was also a little worn. At this moment, the box danced with bright light and shadow!
It is a hexagonal shape one after another, like a starry sky, dazzling.
Mao looked at Tang Yi's eyes one by one, and couldn't help but look at them a few more times, but he naturally couldn't see anything.
"Ahem!" Tang Yi coughed twice deliberately, as if to avoid the dust of the decoration, and seemed to take a few steps closer to the young woman's counter at random.
The middle-aged man opened the box, and inside was a bracelet.
The bracelet is about two centimeters wide, and the silver-white border seems to be in white gold, connected to one after another clasps, on which are inlaid with a total of twelve bright green hexagons, transparent and bright.
At this time, the young woman's eyes also lit up.
Mao Zhu's eyes widened, and then he leaned into Tang Yi's ear and whispered: ", such a broken box, the things inside are blind, could it be the jade of the old pit glass plant?" ”
Tang Yi groaned, "Let's see." "I didn't take my eyes off the bracelet.
The young woman picked up the bracelet and looked at it carefully, "Where did you get this thing?" We don't dare to ask for it if we don't come from the right way! ”
"My grandmother passed it on to my mother, and now that my mother has died, I'm a little tight. Well, you can rest assured that you are coming! The middle-aged man was a little embarrassed, but his eyes were clear, not like lying.
"How much are you going to get?" The young woman then asked.
"One hundred thousand." The middle-aged man did not hesitate at all.
100,000 sounds like a lot, but if it is a jade in Laokeng glass, this little money is nothing. 100,000 will be a big leak!
However, this young woman is obviously a veteran in the business field, although her heart is pounding, but on the surface she is still silent, "You wait a minute. ”
With that, she took out a magnifying glass and a flashlight from the drawer, and studied the green hexagon on the bracelet.
Under the strong light, the green hexagon is as transparent as water, and the whole is a yard of green, which is extremely uniform. And under the observation with a high-powered magnifying glass, there is no cotton wool or anything like that, and there are no impurities as a whole!
There are no drawbacks, which is the biggest drawback.
All of a sudden, the young woman's mood was like a roller coaster, and she fell to the bottom in an instant.
Because, if it is really jadeite, no matter how old and good the pit is, it is impossible to be so evenly green and there is no transition. Moreover, it is incredible that the high-powered magnifying glass cannot see the structure at all.
In other words, these green hexagons are most likely not natural minerals.
To put it mildly, it's a high imitation.
The young woman's face quickly became quite ugly, but she was still polite, and gently put the bracelet into the box, and said to the middle-aged man, "Do you know what material this is made of?" ”
"This bracelet is white gold and has jade on top." The middle-aged man said, "That's what my mother told me. ”
"Let me correct you, it's platinum, not platinum, and the content can't even reach ninety percent, this chain is twenty or thirty grams at most, and I think it's worth about forty thousand at most." The young woman said.
"Forty thousand! When my mother was dying, she told me that 100,000 was the lowest price. It is said that my grandmother and grandfather are not ordinary people! The middle-aged man was a little anxious.
"What you say has nothing to do with me. And I haven't said the point yet, the point is the jade you said on this, you alone say that it's not okay to say jadeite. The young woman smiled slightly when she saw that the middle-aged man was a little anxious.
"Then do you take it or not?" The middle-aged man saw the young woman smiling and bowing his head, and he also slowed down his tone.
"I said, I'm not a gold store here, if you find a gold store, this bracelet can definitely be accepted. As for the green decoration above, I'll say more, you'd better go to the testing center for a test first! The young woman said, closing the box.
Before the middle-aged man could put away the box, another middle-aged man walked to the counter, "I said, the batch of white jade bracelets we ordered will arrive two days late!" ”
"I know my husband. Just look at the store for a while, I'll deliver it to Sister Chen! The young woman let the middle-aged man into the counter. It turned out that his husband had arrived.
"Huh? What is it? The young woman's husband saw the box on the counter.
"Someone asked if they would accept jewelry. I've seen it. The young woman picked up the box that had already been packed, and said as she walked, "You know more about jadeite than I do, so you can take a look at it." ”
The meaning of this sentence has been relatively clear, "it's okay to take a look at it again", that is, it is basically concluded that it is worthless.
"Don't look at it, I'll go ask somewhere else!" The middle-aged man picked up the box and prepared to put it in his leather bag.
"Hey, don't worry, dude, I'll take another look. Well, women's eyesight may not be enough. The young woman's husband was shrewd and exquisite. Of course, when he said this, he still glanced at the back of the young woman leaving.
"Okay, but hurry up, your wife doesn't want to take it. I want to pay 100,000 yuan, not less. The middle-aged man's words were a little stiffer, and he probably felt that there would be no difference in the judgment of the two people.
"Hey, this platinum chain is worth 40,000!" The young woman's husband picked up the bracelet, first sent a sentence, and then asked, "What do you say about this inlaid thing?" ”
The middle-aged man quickly said, "The old jade is in good condition." ”
The young woman's husband also took off the number of ways to use the magnifying glass and flashlight, and looked at it again.
At this time, Tang Yi's hand couldn't help but clench suddenly.
"This shouldn't be Jade!" The young woman's husband finally put down the bracelet and put it back in the box.
"I understand what your wife just said, and you two basically mean the same thing. They all say it's not jadeite, so what do you say? The middle-aged man simply asked directly.
The young woman's husband smiled, "I'm just based on personal experience, I can't say, don't be surprised if it's right or wrong, if you want to prove what it is, you have to do an appraisal." ”
The middle-aged man nodded, motioning for him to continue.
"This is glass, a good means of the Republic of China, to put it bluntly, it is old glass. Well done, with these twelve top-grade glasses, it can be worth eight thousand, but it is too high for you to ask for 100,000. The middle-aged man laughed.
The term glass is not very useful now. During the Republic of China, there were many imitations of high glass products, mostly imitation white jade. Imitation jadeite made with glass has also appeared, but the difficulty is greater than that of imitation white jade, so it is relatively rare.
Jade, because the material is natural, there will always be impurities. But glass is an artifact, and it is difficult to have flaws in both color and fineness.
At this time, Tang Yi's clenched hand suddenly loosened, and a subtle smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
