Chapter 137: The Test
It's not that Zhang Can didn't see it, but the second perspective he couldn't help but make.
These three stones, especially the purple, green and blue pebbles that aroused his interest, in the black and white world, in just a few seconds, Zhang Can affirmed the previous perspective results, these three stones are real Hetian jade, top grade, especially the three-color Hetian jade, is even rarer!
Hetian jade is nephrite, its hardness is only six to six .5, and the hardness of glass is about the same, some are even softer than glass, commonly known as real jade, the general narrow sense of jade, refers to Xinjiang Hetian jade, Hetian jade and Shaanxi Lantian jade, Henan Nanyang jade, Gansu Jiuquan jade, Liaoning Xiuyan jade and called China's five famous jade.
Hetian jade is not like jadeite, Hetian jade was discovered and used to treasure early, and as a treasure and friendship medium to the East and West to transport and exchange, this is China's oldest Hetian jade transportation channel of the "jade road", that is, the later "Silk Road", but the domestic appraisal merchants, Hetian jade generally refers to a more extensive area, Hetian jade, Qinghai jade, Kunlun jade, and Russian nephrite jade, collectively known as Hetian jade, the value of high-grade Hetian jade has been very high, and the value of jadeite is also extremely high, But in the period before the Qing Dynasty, jadeite was not loved and treasured by people at that time, and the value was very ordinary, until the middle and late Qing Dynasty, the jadeite fever rose, and it was out of control, and became one of people's favorite jewelry.
A piece of Hetian jade seeds, in fact, is similar to the original wool of jadeite, there is a layer of epidermis, good Hetian jade seeds, shape and whiteness, as well as skin color and moistness are excellent to be called a fine product, the seed material is formed in the riverbed after tens of millions of years of continuous polishing and washing, so it is rare to say that a piece of seed material with excellent shape and few defects is rare.
Zheng Dabao was stunned for a long time, and then he came to his senses, stared at Zhang Canzhi and asked, "Xiao Zhang, I think there is no difference between these pieces and the dozen pieces, how can you conclude that these three pieces are real and those dozen pieces are fake?" â
Zhang Can smiled and said: "Mr. Zheng, I think you must have tested me, then I'll talk about it casually, I'll say it's ugly, I'll say okay first, I don't know much about Hetian Yu, that is, just talk about it, don't be angry if you don't say it right." â
"If you don't get angry, if you don't get angry, you just say it!" Zheng Dabao had a smile on his face, shook his hand, and urged Zhang Can to hurry up and say that he was too late.
"As the saying goes, jade is not cut into a device, this is not very appropriate for the shape of the beautiful seed jade, save zĂ i can be carved into a variety of exquisite devices, the same thing can also do a lot, it is different from jadeite, other jade or jadeite, it is not easy to get a good one, and after getting, there is also a process, that is, carving workmanship, only with superb technology carved out, can it be worth a lot of money, if the carving is poor, the jade carving is broken, the price will be greatly reduced."
Zhang Can stroked his throat again, talking a little too much, his throat was a little dry, Zheng Dabao quickly lifted the teapot, put a bowl of milk tea in Zhang Can's bowl, and said, "Xiao Zhang, drink, drink some milk tea!" â
Although he wanted to hear what Zhang Can said, Zheng Dabao still tried hard to suppress it, invited Zhang Can to drink milk tea, and moistened his throat.
Zhang Can was not polite, he took a big sip of milk tea, at this time, the milk tea was not as hot as it began, it was a little warm, but the fragrance was still strong, and it had the same effect when drinking.
After drinking the milk tea, I felt that my throat was moistened, and Zhang Can said again: "Like Hetian jade seeds, the better the shape, the more beautiful, the carver is actually an eye that is reluctant to play, and generally uses gold inlays and silver inlays and so on to retain the original shape of the seeds. â
"The body and skin of Hetian jade, that is, the original skin of the protective layer of Hetian jade, the skin color is the external characteristics of Hetian jade, this kind of Hetian jade that contains jade stone or uncarved characteristics is called 'Pu', and the jade skin is subdivided into different shades of color, and the jade of different colors is called 'Qin' or 'immersion', and the color of the seed material is called Qin color, and most of the jade skin is a variety of skin colors formed outside the seed material by long-term soaking and other conditions in Hetian jade. This skin color has a variety of shapes, and it can be said that none of them are the same. Some are like clouds, some are like arcs, some are scattered, big or small, round or square, long or short, or irregular, and their colors are also rich and colorful, such as autumn pear skin, jujube red skin, tabby skin, sunflower skin, sprinkled gold skin, crow skin, deer skin, osmanthus skin, reed skin and so on......"
Zhu Linlin and Wang Qian's understanding of jade is not small, but they all gave Zhang Can a dizzy speech, but it seems that Zhang Can did not get to the point, Zheng Dabao seemed to ask about the difference between the three real pieces and the dozen fake jades, but Zhang Can never said it.
This is naturally Zhang Can's deliberate, in fact, his ability to truly distinguish Hetian Yu is not strong, and he only relies on the perspective ability of black and white eyes, so he deliberately pulled Hetian Yu's origin to distract Zheng Dabao's attention, and then said it in other ways, which is specious, and Zheng Dabao can't believe it.
Sure enough, Zheng Dabao was stunned, and then asked, "That...... What is the difference between truth and falsehood? I don't think there's much difference between these dozen or so pieces, right? â
However, Zheng Dabao still appreciates Zhang Can's understanding of Hetian Yu, which is not fake.
Zhang Can smiled again: "In fact, it is not difficult to understand, Hetian jade belongs to tremolite, amphibole has tremolite and actinolite, Hetian jade's tremolite mineral content is extremely high, impurity mineral content is very small, and the particle size is very fine, it is very obvious under the microscope, but some people with excellent eyesight, as long as they have experience, they can also be seen, and furthermore, the sound of real jade and fake jade is different......"
As he spoke, Zhang Can gently flicked the jade with his fingertips, "Zheng", the sound was quite crisp, and then picked up one of the dozen pieces of fake jade and knocked it, the sound of "fluttering" was very dull, and the two were indeed very different.
There is no need for Zhang Can to explain this, everyone present understands.
Zheng Dabao was stunned, he really didn't believe that this young man could have such good eyesight?
Zhang Can put two different stones on his face and said, "The temperature of this real and fake jade is also different, the real jade is warmer and cooler, while the fake jade or glass is slightly cooler." â
Zheng Dabao grabbed two different pieces of jade and pasted them on his face and tried them, sure enough, there were differences, these are not unheard, but they are not so familiar, and they gathered Zhang Can together, but they felt that it was a coincidence, but the facts are the facts, no matter what, Zhang Can recognized the truth at a glance, and the eyesight was indeed impressive.
Zhang Can put the three pieces of real jade together, pointed to the mixed color one and said: "Mr. Zheng, you three pieces of jade, I think this mixed color should be the best value, of course, at present, the market is said to be the white jade is the best, the rest of the color is second, but the mixed color, generally only yellow and white, and the three-color jade is very rare, especially like this one, purple, green and blue, Hetian jade, green jasper and green jade are common, blue is jasper, and purple is rare, these three colors are mixed together, it is rare! â
Zheng Dabao slapped his thigh and said excitedly: "Really? Someone has also bid hundreds of thousands of dollars to buy my mixed color stone, saying that it is good-looking, not valuable, at that time I wanted to sell this piece of white, I thought this piece of white was the best, bid one million, but he didn't want to be white, so the business was not negotiated, Xiao Zhang, you said that this piece of mixed color is the best, how much can it be sold? â
Zhang Can smiled and said: "I am not very accurate about this, I can only say a rough idea, like a piece of extremely high-quality pure white Hetian jade, its value must be more than millions, or even tens of millions, and this three-color stone, no matter what, I think it will be more than ten million." â
Speaking of this, Zhang Can smiled and said nothing, a piece of jade, or an antique, no one can accurately say how much it is worth, it can only be an approximate figure, and the real selling transaction price, there are many condensation factors, among which the operation of the merchant is particularly important, this aspect, presumably Zheng Dabao understands, like Zhu Linlin and Wang Qian must understand, as long as it works well, some things that are only worth one million can be sold for five million, or higher.
Zheng Dabao also smiled in understanding, but the beard on his face was especially vicious and terrifying, fortunately, Zhang Can understood that he was a friend of the king, so there was no need to worry about him having any bad intentions.
Wang Qian and Zhu Linlin once again saw Zhang Can's ability, and now there is no need for Zheng Dabao to say it clearly, it is almost certain that Zhang Can is right, if he is wrong, Zheng Dabao would have said it a long time ago, where will he still have such a convincing expression as now?
For Zhang Can's ability in this regard, only Su Xue knows the least, she only saw it when Zhang Can recognized the rosewood Buddha beads in her hand, but just that time, she was very peculiar to Zhang Can, with Zhang Can's physique as the most, in the deep-sea dive, and this time in the storm accident, Zhang Can accurately saw the occurrence of the disaster, which shocked her too strongly.
Zheng Dabao was still unsatisfied, looked around the room, and then said: "Xiao Zhang, take a look again, what are the things in my room that are valuable?" â
As soon as these words came out, Wang Qian, Zhu Sen and Su Xue all looked up and looked around, Zheng Dabao's living room, there were a lot of hanging ornaments on the walls of the four walls, there were animal bones, horns, tiger claws, snake skins, ivory, etc., Wang Qian and the other three people almost all set their eyes on the tiger claws and ivory, in the current era, of course, these most precious animals are the most valuable.
After Zheng Dabao finished speaking, he stared at Zhang Can to see how he could tell and what he thought.
Zhang Can looked at these pendants on the wall, and at the same time carried the black and white eyes to see, his eyes narrowed slightly, in the black and white world, he already had a score in his heart, and said with a smile: "Mr. Zheng, aren't you afraid that I will tell the truth?" â
Zheng Dabao also waved his hand with a smile and said, "Even if you say it, don't worry." â
Zhang Can nodded immediately, then pointed to the west wall and said, "As I said, among the pendants in this room, only that little yellow dot is the most valuable!" â
