Chapter 1126 Jade out of Kungang
For the general novices and players, unless you are an old player, otherwise nine out of ten bets will lose, even if you are an old player, no one knows whether it is good or bad, and the person who sells the material says that the material is good, coupled with the myth of Hetian jade's huge value-added, it is easy to fool you into buying.
If this happens a lot, naturally not many people will be fooled.
And some ambitious ones, like Han Peacock, Wei Changqing, Hu family father and son, and Qian Mingyuan, can't control the existing jade resources, so they look for another opportunity, so there is this treasure hunt.
Kunlun jade, Hetian jade this nephrite jade has a long history, is the treasure of the Chinese people, today, with the economic exhibition, is sought after by people due to the lack of resources, the economic value is also rising.
Many people have entered the ranks of searching for nephrite jade with the idea of getting rich overnight, which is like the 30-year gold rush in the United States, and many people are crazy because of jade.
After resting for a while, Han Peacock and the others paid attention to the two or three tons of giant rough stone.
Just now, because of the reason for concentrating on controlling the flow of water, Han Peacock didn't have time to use his spiritual sense to see through it, and he had nothing to do, and his heart began to itch again.
"Brother Han, are we going to unravel this piece of material, or do we just get it out?" Wei Changqing said.
Han Peacock said happily: "Such a rare Yushanzi, if you don't cut it well, you have to scrap it, but it's not easy to get it out like this." ”
"It's not easy to cut such a large rough stone, let alone here." Wei Changqing said with a frown.
Han Peacock smiled and said, "Let's see if there is any value in mobilizing the people!" If the value is enough, you can make a mountain. ”
At this time, Huang Shan asked puzzledly: "Boss." I don't know how long this rough stone has been soaked in the water, is this also mountain material? ”
As the saying goes, interlacing is like separating mountains. Don't look at it all jade, but in comparison, betting on nephrite is many times more difficult than betting on jadeite.
Han Peacock: "This piece of rough stone is washed down from the mountain, so, strictly speaking, it is really mountain material." ”
Qian Mingyuan's eyes faded, and there were few mutton fat jade in the mountain material. And even if there is, it may not be able to achieve the moistness of the seed material.
However, this piece certainly cannot be classified as mountain material so easily. The most accurate way to say this is to say that it is a mountain and a river.
Gu Tong is an old man, and he may not be accurate when he looks at anything else, but he has a very good set of psychological changes in his face.
Seeing Qian Mingyuan's expression, Gu Tongdao: "The quality of jade sometimes depends on the color of the skin. But no one is perfect, and no one is perfect. It has to be a little flawed, and it depends on whether people can turn the flaw into a bright spot. ”
Qian Mingyuan was stunned, and couldn't help laughing: "Brother Gu is right, my heart for gain and loss is too heavy. ”
Gu Tong said with a smile: "There are a lot of good jade and jade in the world, like the piece of jasper we said before, and the Qing Dynasty Dayu water control map Yushanzi collected by the Forbidden City, that piece of material is Gobi material, so who dares to say that this piece can't become the second Dayu water control map?" ”
It is difficult for the gods to break the jade. This is not bad at all, Emerald has a gambling stone. And the rough stone trading of jadeite has always been dominated by gambling stones; Nephrite, on the other hand, because in most cases is "the same on the outside and on the inside", rarely gambles on stones, and the real gambling stone is this foggy landscape material.
For general materials, even if there is a certain amount of gambling, the probability of winning the bet is not great, because everyone can see good materials.
Although there is no shortage of jade on the market, there is a lack of real good materials, in other words, the materials in circulation are very average, and even more garbage, once the knife is often exposed, the possibility of losing the bet is quite large.
But this piece of material is different, this piece of material is not a shell to make a fake, if you really want to gamble, it depends on luck.
The skin color of nephrite jade can be divided into three categories: color skin, sugar skin, and stone skin according to its composition and occurrence characteristics.
The so-called colored skin is a layer of jade skin distributed on the surface of jade with various colors, and the jade world is named after various colors, such as black skin, deer skin and so on.
The quality of Ziyu can be seen from the skin color, such as black skin, deer skin, etc., which are mostly high-grade white jade, and the same quality of Ziyu, such as autumn pear and other skin colors, has high value.
The thickness of the jade skin is very thin, generally less than 1 mm.
The shape of the color skin is varied, some are cloud-like, some are vein-like, and some are scattered.
Experienced jade pickers go downstream to find Ziyu with colored skin, while upstream, there are few chances of finding Ziyu with colored skin.
In addition, near the cracks in the primary jade ore body, there are also occasional mountain materials with skins, which are also formed due to secondary oxidation.
The sugar skin refers to a layer of yellow-brown and sauce-colored jade skin distributed on the surface of the mountain material, because the color resembles brown sugar, so the sugar skin jade is called sugar jade.
The thickness of the sugar skin of sugar jade is larger, from a few centimeters to tens of centimeters, often surrounded by white jade or green jade, showing a transitional relationship, sugar jade is produced near the cracks in the ore body.
Sugar jade is the product of oxidation environment, which is the result of the residual magma water infiltrating along the cracks of Hetian jade ore body by residual magma water after the formation of jade, so that ferrous oxide is converted into ferric oxide, and the sugar skin is the result of iron oxide dyeing.
Qian Ming patted his piece of Gobi material from afar, pointed to a thick sugar-like color, and said with a smile: "There are two places in this rough stone, and there are two characteristics respectively, which is also the main reason why I can't get it accurately." ”
Han Peacock frowned, glanced at Qianmingyuan, and said, "Elder Qian, didn't you hear that the material wrapped in sugar skin is easy to cut out of mutton fat jade?" ”
Qian Mingyuan nodded and said, "There is such a saying, but there is still a big problem with this piece of material!" ”
Production to see jade, first look at the skin color, if the skin color is good, and then see whether the skin color of the jade is gorgeous, autumn pear skin, jujube red skin, deer skin, sprinkled gold skin these are precious varieties.
But the most important thing is to see whether the jade quality is delicate, the proportion of the waterline, only one or two, there is no problem, the proportion of jade flowers, whether there are many impurities, whether there are cracks on the jade surface, it is better.
Han Peacock squatted next to the giant piece of jade material and pondered.
After all, he had come into contact with a jade species that he had not been exposed to before, so Han Peacock was not in a hurry to release his magical powers to observe the situation inside the stone.
He wanted to wait until he had a thorough understanding of the external features of this rough stone, and then look at the internal table.
The risk of betting on nephrite is not small, such as skin-wrapped jade and jade jade, which are difficult to distinguish between immortals, so in this industry, the risk is large, there are many traps, and if you don't pay attention, you will lose all your money.
Originally, people said that gambling jade (or "gambling stone"), often refers to gambling on jadeite rough, this kind of thing is wrapped in a solid stone skin, which can stump the gods.
For nephrite, it is rare to bet on jade, because one of its "five virtues" is "the gill is from the outside, you can know the middle, and the righteous prescription is also", that is, "the outside is the same", which seems to be no need to gamble.
However, just now they cut a few pieces of rough stones that look good on the outside, and they completely said that nephrite jade is "the same on the outside and on the inside" is wrong.
Just now, a piece of crow skin material weighing about two kilograms, the exposed flesh is white and delicate, very attractive, so the excited Huangshan rushed to cut it, and the result was a few horizontal and vertical knives, but the inside was jaw-dropping......
Therefore, don't bet on nephrite, whether it is Hetian jade or Kunlun jade, because there are not a few people who are wrapped in jade and jade in Hetian seed materials, which are risky and have many traps, and if you are unlucky, you will lose all your money.
Han Peacock was observing the situation inside the rough stone, but Wei Changqing was not worried at all that Han Peacock would not be moved.
As for the big problem that Qian Mingyuan said, it is not a problem at all in Wei Changqing, no matter how bad the appearance of this stone is, it can't stop the gorgeous appearance inside.
Since ancient times, there has been gold and water, and jade comes out of Kungang, which is not for fun.
For thousands of years, the high-quality jade of the Chinese jade culture has been produced in this mountain range, and the trade center of this high-quality jade is in Hotan.
Hotan is a place name in the southern Xinjiang region of Xinjiang, Xinjiang, and Uygur Autonomous Region, and is bordered by the Kunlun Mountains about 2,500 kilometers long in the south.
This nephrite is abundant in the Kunlun Mountains south of Hotan and in the large and small rivers that originate in the Kunlun Mountains and flow into the Taklamakan Desert, mainly the Yulong Kashgar and Karakash rivers.
As a result, this kind of amphibole jade has been given a heart-pounding name by history - Hetian jade, and in the minds of the Chinese people, this name has become one of the important symbols of traditional culture.
Hetian jade primary ore is mostly produced in the mountain rock of Kunlun Mountain in Xinjiang and Xinjiang, and some of them are decomposed into fragments of different sizes after external force, which collapse on the hillside, and flow into the river under Kunlun Mountain after being washed by rainwater.
Therefore, according to the different output states, Hetian jade can be roughly divided into mountain material, mountain water and seed material:
Mountain material refers to the original jade mine produced in Kunlun Mountain-Altun Mountain in Xinjiang and Xinjiang, which was called "Baogai Jade" in ancient times.
It goes without saying that this jade material is naturally angular, and the quality is also uneven.
"Shanliushui" is named by local jade miners and jade craftsmen, and refers to the original jade ore that has undergone weathering and collapse in the geological process, and then washed and transported by floods to the middle and upper reaches of the river for a short distance.
Although this piece of jade is Kunlun jade, it is no different from Hetian jade, and now the table of this rough stone should obviously be classified into the ranks of mountains and rivers.
The edges and corners of the jade are rounded, but the scratches and fractures have not been completely polished, and the surface is sometimes in fibrous clusters.
Although this piece belongs to the mountain flowing water, the jade inside him does not have to be much worse than the sub-material, which is formed by the mountain material and the mountain water through long-distance river water transportation, scouring and infiltration.
Because in the process of river water, most of the flaws and defects inside the jade have been ruthlessly dismembered by the river, so most of the seed material is left to be delicate and flawless, essence and content, warm and lustrous high-quality jade, the texture and luster are beyond the reach of mountain materials and mountain water.
So it's not that the mountains and rivers are flowing water, or that the mountain material doesn't produce good jade, but that the sub-material is easier to produce good jade. (To be continued......)
