The Porterbal Road Market is similar to many antique markets in the country, that is, there are a sufficient number of shops and a lot of stalls. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 infoIt's just that Li Yi came over relatively late this time, so most of the stalls have already been closed.

It's just that most of the stalls have not been collected.

After Li Yi came out of the gallery, he decided to go to the stall first, because the shop will not move, and the stall will most likely not come tomorrow.

The stall area of the market is easy to find, just in a small casual square in the middle of the street, which can be seen from afar.

Because it was not early, the stalls in the small square seemed a little sparse, and most of the stalls were empty. But amazingly, there was a stall where about a dozen people gathered, each with something in their hands and looking at it carefully, and they didn't know what it was selling.

Li Yi slowly walked behind these people, glanced at them curiously, and then shook his head with a smile, it turned out that this stall was selling some rough gemstones.

For rough gemstones, Li Yi is very familiar. However, the rough stones in this house were very interesting, and he just glanced at them, and he recognized that there were several different varieties mixed in these piles of rough stones, and they were all varieties that he had not paid much attention to before.

"It's quite interesting to sell this way......

Seeing that there were exactly two girls holding a piece of rough stone of water grass agate and leaving with a smile, Li Yi took a step forward and stood in front of the stall.

The first thing he picked up was a rough piece of floating chalcedony from Madagascar.

Chalcedony is a type of jade in a broad sense, but unlike jadeite and Hetian jade, which are widely known as precious jade, it is actually a variant of upper quartz cryptocrystalline, which is the same composition as agate. However, because the conditions for the formation of the two are different, and the internal structure is also very different, the sense of transparency of chalcedony is extremely strong, while agate is much inferior to it.

Compared to most gemstones, chalcedony is cheap or even negligible, but it is undeniable that almost all chalcedony jewelry is very beautiful.

Madagascar chalcedony, referred to as horse chalcedony, is the main variety of chalcedony in China. As a very special variety of horse material chalcedony, the floating flower material is not only scarce in quantity, the price is much more expensive than ordinary chalcedony, and it is more than a step ahead in terms of beauty.

One of the biggest features of horse material floating flower chalcedony is the shape of its floating flowers, the best floating flower chalcedony, not only the texture is as delicate and smooth as jelly, but the shape of its floating flowers is infinitely close to nature.

Li Yi once saw a bracelet made of flat mahjong-shaped jade plates, each small piece of chalcedony has a colorful falling flower, floating with some patterns like cherry blossom petals, beautiful to the extreme.

The price of that bracelet is 8,000 yuan soft girl coins, but according to the boss, because this bracelet is made up of a few pieces of superb floating flower material, it is not very valuable. The real value is taken from a piece of rough stone and made into a piece like a jade bracelet, and the whole body is covered with this floating material. The price of such a bracelet can easily exceed tens of thousands of yuan.

Tens of thousands of yuan per bracelet has reached the minimum standard of the jewelry price sold by Li Yi Jewelry Company. Moreover, the point of this floating flower chalcedony bracelet is not in its price, but in its rarity and beauty. Therefore, if there is a chance to buy this material, Li Yi is happy to use it to enrich the product line of his jewelry company, even if it is used as a gift for those big customers, this is an unusual gift.

Li Yi first took a look at the appearance of the rough stone in his hand. Most of the rough stone is wrapped in a very thin layer of light yellow stone skin, and some of the exposed jade looks like a pale cyan crystal, and the wax characteristics are very obvious. From there, you can see a red cluster in the center of the rough that looks like a big red flower in full bloom.

It's just that there are some white powdery impurities around this flower, and the shape of the flower is not too vivid, even if it is made into an ornament, it will not be too precious.

Putting the rough stone back to the stall, he casually picked up another flat stone. This stone is gray on both sides, and the middle part is like pork belly, with several layers of gray on top of each other.

This is a piece of lapis lazuli rough. Lapis lazuli is a relatively rare gemstone that is mainly found in countries such as South Asia and North America. In ancient China, it was called Xuanlin, Jinjing, Jinyu, Qingdai and so on.

The color of lapis lazuli is respected in blue, among which the delicate texture and no gold star is the best, and the one without white sprinkled gold is second.

At present, in the market, the medium-quality lapis lazuli is about thirty or forty yuan a gram, a little worse than a dozen yuan a gram, and the good quality may exceed 100 yuan. Overall, it is not a very precious gemstone.

But there are exceptions to everything, just as lapis lazuli is best without the pure blue of Venus, this one is not absolute. The truly superb lapis lazuli is instead a lapis lazuli containing gold stars.

Venus in lapis lazuli is actually an associated pyrite, and if the color of this pyrite is dark, black, and not in good shape, of course, the less the better. But if the yellow color is bright, the color is pure, and the shape is relatively regular, and the distribution is very even, the price of this lapis lazuli is actually much higher than that of pure blue lapis lazuli.

This kind of superb lapis lazuli can be sold for about 500 to 1,000 yuan a gram, if made into a bead diameter of 14 mm bracelet, the weight is about 70 grams, its price can easily exceed 50,000 yuan.

It's just that this kind of superb is difficult to encounter, and it is even rarer than the best in horse material floating flower chalcedony.

The lapis lazuli rough in Li Yi's hand is not of much value, because its lapis lazuli is layered, and the thickness of each layer is not enough, not to mention impurities such as pyrite, the thickest part can't even get out of the beads with a diameter of 8 mm, which belongs to the most worthless material.

Putting this piece of rough stone down, Li Yi directly turned on the perspective, scanned a part of the rough stone, and then picked up a piece of light gray rough stone with a purple and white cross-section.

This is a piece of purple dragon crystal rough.

Purple dragon crystal, also known as "charo stone", is a newly developed ore, in 1978 in the former Soviet Union on the banks of the Shirry River found rare and rare purple gemstones, compared to horse chalcedony and lapis lazuli, its value is much higher, the price of each gram of normal quality is about 1,000 yuan, many of the better ones are more than 3000, and the best of them is likely to exceed 5000 yuan.

Because of its noble temperament and rarity, the purple dragon crystal is nicknamed the purple prince stone by the majority of Tibetan friends. High-quality purple dragon crystal generally contains only two colors, purple and white, of which the purple is bright, the white is soft, the purple and white are intertwined, and the purple and white are slender and fibrous and undirected wound "twisted" together, which is very similar to the burning material. And the long fiber strips are intertwined with each other, and they look like dragons and clouds flying, which looks very beautiful.

Li Yi's rough stone in his hand is such a piece of fine wine, he roughly saw it, and it is estimated that he should be able to take out about 1,000 grams of fine materials, and the value of raw materials alone is more than 200,000, which should be regarded as a good harvest.

Then he looked through some of the rough stones, and Li Yi picked out two more pieces from them. These two pieces, one is a relatively high-quality horse material floating flower chalcedony, and the other is a rough piece of moonstone.

This piece of floating flower chalcedony, the shape of the floating flower resembles a plum blossom flying in mid-air, the distribution is relatively even, a little regrettable is the color of the plum blossom, not as red as the horse material at the beginning.

However, this does not affect the value of this material, because many plum blossoms are pale pink in themselves.

The quality of another piece of moonstone is even better than this chalcedony, not only has a drifting blue light, but Li Yi estimates that it is likely to have a cat's eye effect, which is already a bit of a small superlative.

"Interesting, this treasure hunt is really interesting."

But in just a few minutes, Li Yi saw four kinds of gems in this stall, although they are not very valuable, but they are all beautiful, although they are not very valuable, Li Yi can't help but sincerely admire the business ideas of this boss, so, can his jewelry store also refer to this kind of thinking?

After thinking about it, he felt that it was indeed possible to try. Because, according to his positioning, a large part of his future customers should have never heard of these gems at all.

But just because you haven't heard of it doesn't mean you won't like it, because these gems are all beautiful without exception. If you add that it's because of your own betting, it's likely that they'll be more interested.

If you think about it a little deeper, it is a small matter whether these rough stones make money or not, but they can play a role in keeping customers in the store. And, if addicted, it can increase the frequency of these customers. The most important thing is that there are many places to bet on stones and jade, but there are almost no shops that bet on this kind of cheap gemstones.

Moreover, whether it is gambling on stones or jade, it is already notorious, and the expenses are not small, but what about these? Don't say that they paid for it, he can afford to send it!

With both the best jewelry, small games to do, and on-the-spot calcification, Li Yi felt that this idea could really be tried.

While thinking about communicating this idea with Wang Changcai and Zheng Shusen later, he continued to look at the stone. After a while, he found several kinds of rough stones such as aquatic agate, Warring States red agate, Tianhe stone, blue chalcedony, etc., and couldn't help nodding secretly, this boss is really too chicken thief, not to mention the quality of these rough stones, but the strong hint of treasure hunting in this will make these customers want to stop.

"Boss, how do you sell all these rough stones?"

"Oh, do you see that rough stone? Bigger than that one, it's 30 euros, and smaller than that one, it's only 20 euros! ”

Li Yi was stunned for a moment, and then secretly made up his mind, no need to discuss, just let Zheng Shusen prepare, only give it away, not sell it, the name is treasure hunting game! , (To be continued.) )
