Chapter 308: Gambling Stone III
Xu Yi and Hao Xun listened very carefully to Yan Qing's talk about gambling stones, Hao Xun actually only knew a little bit about it, and many things only knew a name, and when he heard Yan Qing talk about it at this moment, he naturally had to listen carefully.
What kind of pine flowers, what open skylights, what is yang green, what is cracked half-gambling wool, etc., although it is impossible to teach each other for a while, and Yan Qing has to be called by a few jade merchants from time to time to negotiate the price, so the two of them don't have much time to study with Yan Qing.
However, Xu Yi has learned a lot from this, and it is up to him how much Hao Xun can learn.
"Hao Shao, take your time, I'll go to Ning Lao's side, he is a member of the Jewelry and Jade Association, and he will take care of my business in the future."
Yan Qing smiled, "Hao Shao, your face is here, the half-gambling material is sold to others for 41,000 kilograms, 30,000 for you, and the full-gambling material is sold for 21,000 kilograms, and you are given 8,000." ”
"Okay, Lao Yan, you can get busy, let's take a look for ourselves."
Hao Xun smiled, waved his hand to Yan Qing very casually, turned his eyes to the stone on the side, he has made up for the knowledge of jade in the past few days, and he has just learned a lot from Yan Qing, he is trying to make good use of it, the more he understands, the more he feels that this gambling stone is really interesting.
"Hao Xun, this old thing is too ruthless, just like that, it's 100,000 kilograms when you open your mouth." Xu Yi was also taken aback, although the best jadeite is priceless, however, it is also a very small number of good quality jadeite, after all, it is a very few, and most of the ordinary jadeite is not too expensive.
"Almost. The price given by Lao Yan is real. I asked a friend about it. The half-gambling old pit in Lingnan is also about 40,000 kilograms. ”
Hao Xun shook his head and glanced at the old men in front of him who were looking down with magnifying glasses and carefully observing the stones, "It's all at this price in Lingnan, let alone transporting it from Lingnan to the capital." ”
His voice paused, "Why did Lao Yan put the stone in this house, wouldn't it be better to build a shed in the yard to see it more clearly?" ”
"Little brother, this is where Lao Yan is cunning."
An old man with gray hair smiled and slowly straightened up. Put the magnifying glass in his hand into the toolbox and glanced at Yan Qing, who was receiving guests over there, "If it is all placed in the sun, it will be more beneficial for us buyers to observe the material, and he will lose a lot." ”
"Gambling stones, gambling stones, of course he has to do something beneficial to himself."
"Old man, are you holding this tool just to see the material?"
Xu Yi took out a cigarette and handed it over, "How can you observe whether the jade can be cut out of a material?" ”
"Young man, this is your first time in contact with gambling stones, right?"
The old man took the cigarette in Xu Yi's hand. Hao Xun took out the lighter and lit the lighter with a "snap", and sent the flame in front of the old man. "Old man, it's the first time we've come into contact with this thing, and when we heard that there are gambling stones here, let's come and see it."
"There are many ways to identify materials, and the industry is nothing more than looking at the color gloss, surface characteristics, and understanding the structure of the material."
The old man smiled, lit a cigarette and took a puff, "The surface of the material is pitted, dissolving pits, and diffuse reflection can be produced by shining a flashlight, and the luster will weaken......"
The old man began to talk eloquently, and also used his toolbox to give Xu Yi and two specific demonstrations, Xu Yi and two listened very carefully, this old man is obviously professional enough, talking about jade, it is the head of the way, compared to Yan Qing is much more professional.
"Okay, it's time for me to get busy, Yan Qing did get a lot of good materials this time, I have to get a few pieces of material back today, so I don't have to go to Myanmar."
The old man shook his head, "But, young man, I advise you to just have fun, don't believe in those myths that you are poor and rich with a knife, how many people can get rich because of it after so many years, and almost all of those who indulge in it end up bankrupt." ”
"Okay, old man, thank you."
Hao Xun smiled, glanced back at Xu Yi, and couldn't help but be stunned, this kid looked at the front in a daze, as if he had lost his soul, and immediately raised his head and looked at his gaze, there were only a few old men in front of him who were choosing materials, and there were no stunning beauties.
"Hey, Xu Yi, what are you doing, you see a beautiful woman without clothes?"
Hao Xun raised his hand and shook it in front of Xu Yi, but Xu Yi didn't seem to react, he couldn't help but be startled, and reached out to pat Xu Yi's shoulder, "Hey, Xu Yi, what's wrong with you, don't scare me, you kid." ”
Xu Yi was woken up by Hao Xun, and was surprised to find that the old man had disappeared just now, and just heard what the old man said, Xu Yi had a flash of inspiration at that time, thinking that his divine sense could penetrate the wall, and he didn't know if he could penetrate these stones to see if there was any jade inside.
If the divine sense is good, then in this case, isn't the so-called gambling stone just picking up gold on the ground?
Thinking about this, Xu Yi's heart suddenly moved, and he immediately didn't care about the old man's speech, if his divine sense worked, it would be much more effective than these various stunts, why bother to ask for rice with a golden rice bowl?
The thought in Xu Yi's heart moved, and his divine consciousness swept away like a tide, and after a while, Xu Yi took a thorough look at the fifty or sixty pounds of half-gambling material around him.
The greenery can be vaguely seen in this piece of material with the skylight, and what the old man said just now is the temptation in this material, but Xu Yi found that there was only a thin layer of green in it, and the other things were only stones.
According to the price given by Yan Qing, this piece of material is at least 30 kilograms, and if it is 40,000 yuan per kilogram, it is 1.2 million, but this kind of material can't be opened, and the jade is completely waste, and spending 1.2 million yuan to buy a piece of waste is indeed a knife poor.
Just thinking about it, Xu Yi felt that someone was pushing him, and suddenly it was dark in front of him and he was about to make a move, and he caught a glimpse of Hao Xun from the corner of his eye, and he was relieved, "Hey, the old man is gone?" ”
"I said brother, what are you thinking, so engrossed, I don't know, I thought you were seeing a beautiful woman without clothes."
Hao Xun smiled, "Then the old man went to pick a stone, let's also pick a few stones to play, I think those half-gambling materials have a better chance, okay, I'm going to choose a stone, do you want to play?" ”
"Play, how can you not play, such a good opportunity, I have to pick a few stones to play." Xu Yi smiled, Hao Xun wanted to choose the stone by himself, just took a piece of half-gambling material around him to test, but he didn't have confidence in the accuracy in the end, so he naturally wanted to find a few stones to try.
Although Xu Yi himself is not short of money, it can't be so bad.
"Well, let's compare the two of us to see whose luck is better."
Hao Xun grinned, "By the way, Yan Qing still has the equipment to solve the stone here, let's also solve the stone after picking it out for a while." ”
"Okay, then the two of us will compete against each other, and whoever loses will sleep and treat them tonight." Xu Yi smiled and nodded, turned his head and glanced at the dense stones in this room, you have to hurry, so many stones, if you look at them one by one, you can't finish it at night.
"Okay, it's better than that, whoever loses will eat shark fin at the Beijing Hotel tonight."
Hao Xun clapped his hands in fear, and strode towards the half-gambling material with an excited face, "By the way, Xu Yi, you didn't say that the half-gambling or the full-gambling material." ”
"It's okay, whatever."
Xu Yi waved his hand, turned around and walked into the whole gambling material, his eyes swept roughly, and according to the method taught by the old man just now, he quickly picked out more than ten pieces of real old pit material, and the ones selected were about thirty kilograms.
After choosing the target, Xu Yi walked to the nearest stone, wrapped his divine sense, and soon saw clearly what was inside the stone, and there was indeed a basketball-sized thing similar to a crystal.
Nima, so lucky, picked something good so quickly?
Xu Yi's heart was shocked, and then he carefully observed it again with his divine sense, that's right, there was indeed such a basketball-sized thing similar to a crystal ball in the middle of the stone, revealing a thick green.
I remembered what the old man said just now, and my heart shook wildly, Nima, this is the material of imperial green, this is the best in jadeite, and it is a priceless thing.
Of course, this is only a possibility, whether there is really an imperial green jadeite, Xu Yi is not sure, and he will not know until it opens for a while.
Moreover, you can't just take this stone and open it, otherwise it would be too surprising.
After Xu Yi finalized a stone, he quickly observed the more than ten stones selected before, only two stones had jadeite in them, and the jadeite in them was really pitiful, and the only jadeite quality was not high, and it could not be sold at a good price.
Next, Xu Yi checked a lot of other materials, but on the whole, there is a small amount of jadeite in these stones, which is not of high quality, and according to the weight of each stone, most of them are the end of gambling and losing.
After tossing all the way like this, a few hours passed quickly, Xu Yi returned to the stone with a glass ball, squatted down and was about to pick up the stone to go to the scale, when a surprised voice came from behind him, "Young man, why did you pick this piece of material, this is a piece of waste." ”
Xu Yi was stunned when he heard this, Nima, who the hell is loading a big head of garlic here, the master obviously saw that there was such a big piece of jade inside, how could it be a waste?
With a frown, Xu Yi glanced back, and the person who spoke was the old Ning that Yan Qing said, a member of the Jewelry and Jade Association, and a well-known jade identification expert. (To be continued......)
