Chapter 9 The Charm of Gambling Stones
"Uncle Fang, has Grandpa Li gone home?" Looking at Fang Bo, who was still doing Tai Chi in the garden, Fang Qi's face was full of smiles.
"What are you so happy about?" Looking at Fang Qi's happy face, the old man's eyes were also full of a smile.
"Uncle Fang, this is my gift to you, Jade Guanyin, wearing it on your body is good for your health." After speaking, he opened the box in his hand, and the dazzling jewelry looked very beautiful, and there were so many pieces. Seeing that Fang Qi directly took out a pendant for himself, Fang Bo did not refuse. In his opinion, these are just a few dozen dollars a piece, and they are not worth much money.
But the pendant looks elegant and chic, and it looks very good. Especially when the old man saw that others also had some jade plates in their hands, the old man was also envious. Now he also has a jade artifact in his hand, although the price is low, but the important thing is Fang Qi's filial piety.
"Grandpa Li, this is for you, see if you like it or not." Seeing that Fang Qi took out a pendant again and gave it to Li Lao, Fang Bo couldn't help frowning. It's not that he is jealous, but that Li Lao is a famous person, and he gets along these days, and he also knows that Li Lao is a big collector, how can he value such things.
"This is the imperial green pendant, it's really good, I'll take it, and show me that pair of bracelets." Looking at the contents of Fang Qi's box, the old man picked up the bracelet and looked at it carefully in the light for a while before reluctantly putting it down.
"Yes, it's no wonder that the fat man is willing to buy a pair of treasures for the town store at a price of 50 million, hehehe, I will use this as a dowry in the future, and I am afraid that I will not find a wife." Hearing Elder Li's words, Uncle Fang's hand trembled, he couldn't believe that this pair of bracelets was worth 50 million, if that was the case, wouldn't the pendant just now also be worth millions.
"Xiao Fang, this is..."
"Hehe, Uncle Fang, don't worry, this thing is definitely coming from the right thing, this is what I solved from the stone in the basement, you also know that there are a lot of stones left by my father, these are all jadeite rough stones, this piece of jadeite is what I solved from it, and it didn't cost a penny." Hearing Fang Qi's words, Fang Bo looked at Fang Qi in disbelief, this was something worth fifty million.
"Really?" Two bracelets, seven pendants, two rings, and one earring, at least worth hundreds of millions, such a thing was taken out of the stone. This is not only Uncle Fang, but also Elder Li is also curious. He knew the jade rough stone, but he didn't expect that there were not only antiques here, but also the glass imperial green.
"Really, if you don't believe me, I can solve another piece tonight, and you can see it by looking at it." Hearing Fang Qi's words, the eyes of the two old men lit up.
"Okay, let's go together after dinner, I only know about the gambling stone, I haven't seen it yet, I didn't expect that there is a rough stone here to solve, and the old man also opened his eyes today." Looking at Li Lao's look of interest, Fang Qi also smiled. As for Uncle Fang, he still didn't believe that a stone was worth so much money.
After dinner, they came to the basement with jade rough stones, and saw that there were thirty or forty pieces in the pile, which made Li Lao couldn't help but show a trace of shock. You must know that the price of the jade rough is not low, even if a piece is poor, it will be more than 10,000, and the good performance is even worth more than 10 million. Seeing that the largest foot weighed a thousand pounds, Li Lao suddenly showed a trace of curiosity and wanted to touch it.
"Grandpa Li, you don't know the road, I often sleep here, for a long time, I am also familiar with the gambling stones here, I know that there is jade in the road and there is not." Hearing Fang Qi's words, Li Lao smiled, of course he wouldn't think it was true, gambling stones, gambling stones, the focus is still on a gambling word, a knife in heaven, a knife in hell, not something anyone can predict, even the legendary Jade King has a time to miss.
Fang Qi found a small one, but he looked at the green on it, and it was only under the two largest green rough stones left. Fang Qi brought the machine of the electric grinding wheel, and was still ready to dissolve the stone on the edge of the pond. With the experience of the last time, Fang Qi used a scrub machine to remove the sand skin on the periphery of the rough stone little by little, watching the stone decrease little by little, the eyes of the two old men were full of curiosity.
Gradually, a layer of white sand skin appeared in front of everyone's eyes, and Li Lao knew that this situation was foggy. In such a situation, there is a great possibility of greening.
"There's emerald." A little green appeared in front of everyone, seeing this scene. Not only was the old man's face full of surprise, but Fang Bo's face, in addition to surprise, there was also a burst of surprise, he really didn't expect that the useless stone in his eyes would hide such a beautiful thing.
"A heaven, a hell, this is the charm of gambling stones, but Xiao Fang was lucky, and he actually opened another stone with jade." Fang Qi was not surprised, he still kept a calm heart, and little by little he dropped the rough stones around the jadeite, and soon, a piece of green jadeite the size of two adults' fists appeared in front of everyone.
"High Ice Imperial Green." Looking at the green jade in Fang Qi's hand, the old man couldn't help but show a trace of shock. Even if he doesn't care about jadeite, he knows that the Emperor Green Jadeite is rare to see, and ordinary people may not see a physical object in their lifetime. But Fang Qi first had glass imperial green, and now he was high ice imperial green, this luck was really good.
"Yes, it should be more than 10 million." Fang Qi is not a rookie now, and naturally knows that the value of the high ice type imperial green is no less than that of the ordinary glass species, such a large piece is enough to take out five pairs of bracelets, and it is the reserve price.
"This thing is worth 10 million?" Looking at the jade in Fang Qi's hand, Fang Bo's face was full of curiosity, in his heart, it was that those antiques added up to almost this amount of money.
"This is a high-ice species, almost to the point of glass species, otherwise the value is at least more than 200 million. But it's not bad, the last piece was glass imperial green, this time it's high ice imperial green, and others may not be able to open one of them in their lifetime. Hearing Elder Li's words, Fang Qi couldn't help but smile a little.
"The main thing is that my father collected the rough stones, and I solved the glass imperial green in the first piece, and the second one is the high ice imperial green, which was just planted by the predecessors and enjoyed by the later generations." Hearing Fang Qi's words, Elder Li couldn't help but look at Fang Qi in shock.
"Xiao Fang, are you saying that you only opened two pieces of imperial green?" Looking at Fang Qi, the old man's eyes were full of disbelief.
"Well, I'm lucky, and I feel that this piece is not the best in it, there are two pieces that are better than this one, and they can even be compared to the first one, and I am not very optimistic about the following." Hearing Fang Qi's words, Li Lao was suddenly surprised, but he didn't care for long, after all, every gambling stone was optimistic, but ninety-nine percent of the solved stones were waste.
"Okay, you must not touch these gambling stones, after all, gambling stones are still in a gambling word, and the people who are bankrupt in gambling stones are no less than gambling, you must be careful. You can touch the gambling stones left by your father, after all, you don't need money, but outside, you must not touch them, and these gambling stones are enough for you. Hearing Elder Li's words, Fang Qi nodded.
"Grandpa Li, don't worry, if you are not sure, I will not gamble more than 100,000, and it is still possible to do less than 100,000. Of course, if I can't get green three times in a row, I won't bet. Hearing Fang Qi's words, Master Li didn't say anything, Fang Qi had given him too many surprises in the past two days, four leak tests, two pieces of imperial green jade, he didn't have any confidence if he wanted to.
"By the way, what do you do with this piece of jadeite?" Looking at Fang Qi, Li Lao looked at Fang Qi curiously.
"Collection, anyway, I'm not short of money now, and I'm taking it out when I use it, anyway, the price of jadeite has been rising again." Hearing Fang Qi's words, Li Lao couldn't help but show a smile, Fang Qi's mentality is the most suitable for collectors, collecting is not for money, if collecting for money, then what is the difference between it and a person who resells antiques.
Of course, if you are short of money, you are really forced by life, and it doesn't matter if you sell antiques. After all, people still have to live for the purpose, otherwise their lives will be gone, what's the use of collecting those antiques, if you don't bring them in life, you won't bring them in death.
"Well, this jade collection is not bad, but you are about to start school, so don't be distracted now and concentrate on studying." Hearing Elder Li's words, Fang Qi didn't dare to refute. Looking at the time, this time it only took two hours because of the experience of the previous time. ,
"Okay, it's not early, this time I gained a lot, I didn't expect to see the birth of a piece of imperial green, hehehe, if I have time, I want to cut a piece and try it myself?"
"Well, if Grandpa Li has time, he will cut it tomorrow, and I will prepare a good piece for you, and ensure that you cut a piece of jadeite that is no less than imperial green." Hearing Fang Qi's words, Li Lao smiled, not caring at all, after all, it is difficult for immortals to break an inch of jade, let alone a person.
The next day, Fang Qi spent money to buy a cutting machine, and spent an afternoon to solve three rough stones with the help of Li Lao and Fang Bo. A piece of purple eyes the size of a baby's fist, a glass apple green the size of a leather ball, and a piece of high ice ocean blue the size of two adult fists.
These are the best rough stones, and the rest of Fang Qi can see that they are all unsightly. Waiting for that day, Fang Qi hired someone to solve it, because Fang Qi didn't care at all.
Uncle Fang only rejoiced in his eyes, these meant money, how could he not be happy. And Li Lao was shocked, because he knew the value of these three pieces of jadeite, the purple eyes were no less than the glass Zhongnan Imperial Green, and it was rarer than the Imperial Green, while the glass apple green was simply small in value, but it was heavy in size, and the value was only higher than that of the purple eyes.
These three pieces of jadeite are rarely seen even on the general public plate, not to mention three in a row, looking at the three jadeite rough stones, he now looks at the rough stones inside like looking at a beautiful woman. He now wondered if all the rough stones were so good. But Fang Qi's words shocked his heart.
"The rough stones below are all bad, at most they are ice seeds, and I will find someone to solve them that day."
"Xiao Fang, aren't you optimistic about these rough stones?" Looking at Fang Qi, Elder Li's eyes were full of doubts.
"Really, Grandpa Li, I have been with these rough stones for so long, there should be most of them jadeite, but it is absolutely impossible to exceed these three, if Grandpa Li doesn't believe it, I will sell 100,000 yuan to Grandpa Li, I believe that Grandpa Li will not lose." Hearing Fang Qi's words, Elder Li was suddenly shocked.
