Chapter 397: Ten bets and nine losses

Jiang Shaoyou is the young owner here, otherwise it would be someone else, and it would be almost impossible to take Jiang Shaoyou in and out of the jade semi-finished product storage room. This semi-finished storage room is not very large, the total area is only sixty or seventy square meters, Liu Wencai personally entered a long list of passwords, and then used his fingerprint recognition to open the door of the storage room.

I saw that there were also several rows of shelves inside, but the scale of this display was much smaller, and there were not many things on the shelves. In addition, the shelves are covered with a glass cover, and there is an electronic combination lock in front of each exhibit, and it seems that if you want to take a piece of semi-finished jadeite from this storage room, you will need to open the combination lock again.

However, Liu Wencai obviously didn't mean to take out those semi-finished products, sat in a wheelchair, pointed to the colorful jadeites on the display shelves, and said with a bright face: "Do you see it?" These are some of the high-grade jadeite raw materials that our Liu family has recently stockpiled! Jadeite...... As a relatively special jade species, the main production area is only Myanmar, and with the history of hundreds of years of mining, the jadeite mines in Myanmar are gradually facing the problem of resource depletion. So...... Now the raw materials of jadeite are one price per day, and each additional day of accumulation, these things will appreciate a lot. If one day, Myanmar suddenly announces that the jadeite mine will be completely suspended, then these jadeite raw materials will be speculated to a sky-high price! ”

Jiang Shaoyou nodded when he heard this, and said, "You are talking to me so much to remind me that if the jadeite rough I bought later really solves the jadeite, I will try not to make a move, but keep it in my hand and slowly appreciate in value...... But I want to spend a lot of money on the rough jadeite, but I can't sell the jadeite afterwards, so I can only mortgage my Mercedes Benz to you, right? ”

That's right, Liu Wencai said for a long time, and what he wanted to express was this, in order to deceive Jiang Shaoyou's Mercedes-Benz car back, Liu Wencai can be said to rack his brains! Let Jiang Shaoyou come to participate in the gambling stone, but what if Jiang Shaoyou really continues to walk shit luck and shoots a piece of jade rough that has risen sharply? If it is sold, Jiang Shaoyou will immediately have a lot of more money in his hand, so that it is completely impossible for Liu Wencai to get Jiang Shaoyou's car back.

However, if Jiang Shaoyou listened to Liu Wencai's words and really kept the semi-finished jadeite in his hands, waiting for the price to slowly appreciate, then this piece of jadeite would naturally not be able to be realized in a short period of time, and the money Jiang Shaoyou spent in the process of gambling on the stone could only be repaid by mortgaging the vehicle.

Of course, if Liu Wencai's plan is over here, then even if he can replace the Mercedes-Benz car, it is equivalent to paying for the car again, which is meaningless. Therefore, Liu Wencai actually has follow-up arrangements...... He had already contacted a thief who was very famous on the road, if Jiang Shaoyou really dared to keep the jade cut out of the gambling stone in his hand, then Liu Wencai would immediately notify the thief when he turned around, no matter where Jiang Shaoyou hid the semi-finished jadeite, it was guaranteed that it would be stolen if it was hot for a day!

Therefore, in Liu Wencai's plan, if Jiang Shaoyou loses the gambling stone, he will definitely lose all the Mercedes-Benz to himself. And even if Jiang Shaoyou really won the bet, his ending would only be more tragic. A person who experiences getting rich overnight in a short period of time, but then is beaten back to his original form, and returns to the pre-liberation period overnight, the kind of psychological stimulation of ups and downs will definitely make a person completely crazy! Therefore, Liu Wencai hopes that Jiang Shaoyou can really gamble on an expensive piece of jade today, so that maybe he can successfully make this hateful guy become an idiot completely!

Now that Liu Wencai's intentions have been revealed by Jiang Shaoyou, he is not embarrassed at all, but he said with a smile: "I'm all thinking about you, if you don't believe me, you can ask anyone who is more familiar with the jade industry, or...... You can look it up directly on the Internet and get a similar answer. As for cars...... It's the same price every day, but it's falling day by day. If you keep a piece of jadeite in your hands for a few years, its value may double, but if you leave a car in your hands for a few years, its value may fall by half. So, if you sell the jade in order to keep the car in your hand...... Then wait a few years, and you'll know how stupid you are! ”

I have to admit that Liu Wencai's words still have some truth, if Jiang Shaoyou's money in his hand is really tight, maybe he will really be moved by him and sell the Mercedes-Benz car that he just got his hands on. But...... The actual situation is not as Liu Wencai imagined at all, so this product is destined to be a busy job in vain.

Jiang Shaoyou was too lazy to waste time with Liu Wencai, so he nodded and agreed, "Okay...... I promise you, if I can really bet on a piece of jadeite, I will definitely consider your construction. But...... It's all gone, I said...... Can you hurry up and tell me a little bit about jadeite? If I don't wait for the tasting to end, what stone will I bet on? ”

"Yes, yes, yes...... I'll introduce you to it! Seeing Jiang Shaoyou agree, Liu Wencai suddenly perked up, and hurriedly pointed to a piece of emerald green jadeite semi-finished product on the first exhibition shelf, and said: "The quality of this jadeite mainly depends on two aspects, one is the color, the other is the water, and what is the water?" Let's grow water...... In fact, it mainly refers to transparency, and the best jadeite is called glass, that is, the kind of jadeite that is crystal clear as glass. The second is the ice species, and the first-class ones such as hibiscus and golden silk are also good seeds, you see...... This piece of jadeite is a piece of jadeite of the hibiscus species, and it is characterized by...... The color is light green and eye-catching, the color is not evil and pleasing to the eye, the color of the whole body is consistent, there is no light brownish yellow tone penetration, the jadeite crystals are micro-columnar, fibrous (metacrystalline) aggregates, the grains can be distinguished by the naked eye but are not clear, transparent-translucent, the texture is fine, the jade body is not dry or wet, and the sound of percussion jade body is metallic brittle......"

"As for the second element in determining the value of jadeite, it is color, in general...... The darker, purer, and evenly distributed jadeite is the better. In the green category, the best and most intense green is called imperial green, followed by emerald. Further down, such as gem green, golden green, beans, boxwood green, etc., if it is subdivided, just one green grade can be divided into more than 40 kinds. If the water and color of a jadeite reach the best level, then the value of this jadeite is immeasurable, for example, the jadeite of the glass species of imperial green is almost the most expensive jadeite in the world. Of course...... This kind of superb jadeite has rarely appeared in recent years, and we don't have it here for the time being, so we can only show you the picture. As far as I know, a glass imperial green bracelet auctioned at the Xingang auction two years ago fetched a sky-high price of 19 million yuan! And this is still the price of the previous two years, and if this kind of superb jade bracelet appears now, even if it is auctioned for 30 million, it will not be strange at all......"

In order to encourage Jiang Shaoyou to auction a few more pieces of jadeite rough at the tasting meeting, Liu Wencai gave Jiang Shaoyou a lesson without concealment, and told Jiang Shaoyou about some knowledge related to jadeite, mainly how to identify the grade of jadeite, and make a rough estimate. However, firstly, because of the limited time, and secondly, it was also to arouse Jiang Shaoyou's greed, so Liu Wencai basically mainly picked up some more valuable jadeite types and talked about Jiang Shaoyou in detail.

After having a certain understanding, Jiang Shaoyou finally knew what grade the piece of jade he had seen through the perspective on the display shelf before, it turned out to be an ice species floating flower jade! The ice species is second only to the glass species, if a piece of jadeite can reach the ice species, then no matter what color of jadeite it is, its value cannot be too low, and the piece that Jiang Shaoyou saw is almost nowhere, and the color of the occasional blue floating flower is also very good.

Of course, with the little knowledge that Jiang Shaoyou has learned temporarily, it is impossible for him to accurately estimate the price of that piece of jadeite, but at the very beginning, he knows that the price of that piece of jadeite will definitely be much higher than 50,000 yuan, and it is likely to exceed the price of one million yuan. So...... At the auction in the afternoon, as long as the auction price of the jade rough did not reach more than 800,000 yuan, Jiang Shaoyou decided to buy it.

Time flies, more than half an hour has passed in a blink of an eye, and seeing that it is not long before the end of the morning tasting, Jiang Shaoyou hurriedly finished his study, hurriedly returned to the multi-functional hall, and then began to look through each jade rough stone with his eyes shining brightly......

Although it will make Jiang Shaoyou feel a little difficult to see through the jadeite rough, the difficulty here refers to the mental consumption, and it does not mean that he needs to delay much time to see through a piece of jadeite rough. So despite the limited time, Jiang Shaoyou finally overdrew his spiritual energy before the end of the morning tasting......

This time, Jiang Shaoyou saw through twenty-nine pieces of jadeite rough stones, plus the eight pieces of rough stones that he had seen through before, Jiang Shaoyou saw a total of thirty-seven pieces, and among the twenty-nine pieces of rough stones that he saw through later, Jiang Shaoyou only found that two of them had hidden jadeite. All things considered, the rate of jadeite rough stones here that can cut out jadeite is less than one-tenth, which is really a loss of nine out of ten bets!

And even the two pieces of rough stone that can really cut out jadeite, not all can make money, one of the bidding reserve price is 850,000 yuan, but the jadeite inside is the most garbage shit ground, this jadeite because there are too many impurities in it, after the solution out, there is no way to directly make jewelry, pendant, can only be manually processed. Generally speaking, this kind of jadeite should be soaked in strong acid to corrode and dissolve the impurities and stains in it to make it clear and bright. The jadeite washed with strong acid has a loose structure, it must be filled with cracks after acid etching, and the commonly used means is to inject transparent resin with vacuum negative pressure method, the refractive index of this resin is close to that of jadeite, and after polishing, it is almost no different from high-grade jadeite. The jadeite processed by this method is also known as "B goods". In essence, this kind of jadeite is still considered jadeite, but it has been artificially processed, so it is not natural enough!
