"Elder Qian, you tell us what the price of gem light is, so that we can have a target, and we can bring out as much valuable gem light as possible from Lop Nur." Wei Changqing's face was full of light.

Qian Mingyuan was speechless, he thought that the entire Lop Nur was a jade mine? Is that what he wants to bring out?

Although he didn't want to deal with Wei Changqing, seeing that Han Peacock was also looking at him curiously, he said helplessly: "The price of the gem light in the Yadan colored jade has risen all the way, and it has become a kind of aristocratic collection, and the price is currently in the market.

According to the color, volume, and condition, the market price is about: red, perfect condition, about 50 grams of volume, no rib grid, crystal clear gem light of 10,000 yuan per gram.

Yellow, perfect condition, volume of about 50 grams, no gluten grid, crystal clear gem light of 5,000 yuan per gram, white, perfect condition, volume of about 50 grams, no rib grid, crystal clear gem light of 1,000 yuan per gram.

More than 50 grams increase according to weight, and the price per gram increases, less than 50 grams decrease according to weight, and then talk about the price according to the light transmittance, completeness, and tendon level. ”

"If all the gemstones are so beautiful, it's normal for the price to be high." Huang Shan looked at his mobile phone and said.

"No matter how beautiful it is, it's still a stone? Who knows if the gem light on it is real or fake? Maybe these are glass balls. One of Wei Changqing's bodyguards said.

Qian Mingyuan said: "What does the gem light look like, don't listen to hearsay, their words will soon be taken away by the wind of the devil city, as long as you see the real gem light, you will always remember its look." ”

"It stands to reason that a lot of gemstone light should have been discovered over the years, why are there not many on the market?" Zhao Dong was a little puzzled.

"Yes! Not should it grow over time. Are there more and more gems being discovered? How do I see that there are fewer and fewer gemstones on the market? Wei Changqing asked puzzled.

"It is normal for the rough stone trading market to shrink, first of all, a part of the good rough stone has flowed to the magic capital, Yangcheng and other places in the first two years, and the other part, the carving in the past two years has become a stall that can not be taken, and some carvers can carve 6 a day, and the bad material is not carved. More than 1,000 carvers have been carving for several years, how many good materials can you calculate? Qian Mingyuan sighed.

"Elder Qian knows this very well?" Han Peacock asked.

Qian Mingyuan had nothing to hide, he said directly: "Many of my friends are in this business, so if you know something, let's talk about Lao Hu!" He has wasted a lot of gem light over the years. ”

"Him?" Han Peacock said suspiciously, no matter how he looked at it, he didn't see that the Hu family's father and son were the kind of local tyrants who used gems as stones to spoil them, but. Even if they are in the local tyrant, they don't care about him, Han Peacock just needs to make sure that Qian Mingyuan really has a wide network.

Qian Mingyuan said with a smile: "Their family has not been playing jadeite for a long time, buying and selling jadeite rough is just a means for them to accumulate capital and acquire nephrite. He will also carve himself, but his craftsmanship. But it's not the master level he thinks he has, which has ruined a lot of superb gold silk jade. ”

"Beitun Hong? Is it a type of golden silk jade? Han Peacock asked curiously, although he was erudite, he was erudite but not sophisticated, and he didn't know a lot of professional knowledge.

Qian Mingyuan explained: "Beitun red gold silk jade belongs to the precious jade species. Its color variety is rich, colorful, this variety is extremely scarce, due to the discovery of Beitun red gold silk jade is relatively late, and the production of bright is scarce. The color of Beitun red gold silk jade is very rich, the hardness is also very high, the jade quality is good, easy to carve, and there are unique lines on the surface of the jade, which can allow the jade carving masters to carve freely with their imagination, so the price is very high, and it is a famous brand among the golden silk jade. ”

"Good golden silk jade is difficult to find now, and now as long as you see a good jade on the market, the asking price is more than 10,000." Wei Changqing said.

"There are a lot of such golden silk jade Hu families, just like Hetian jade, if they don't go on a business trip, their Hu family will not be lacking in the future." Thinking that the Hu family father and son have entered the mountain again, as long as they pay the price, they will definitely mine Hetian jade.

"I really haven't seen it, their family is still a local tyrant family." Han Peacock said thoughtfully.

"This is the opportunity, one year Lao Hu had a whim, to buy all the Beitunhong with a few friends, he also looked for me at that time, but there happened to be an accident at home, so I didn't invest together.

Beitun red is a special variety of golden silk jade, although the color is bright and moist, but at that time, most of the people who played with the stone in Karamay did not know what Beitun red was, but like a tropical fish, in Mabei, in the area of 184 groups swimming.

They only have the top varieties of gemstone light in their eyes, so Lao Hu took this opportunity to buy a large number of Beitun red, and later Beitun red became hot, and the Beitun red in his hand naturally rose. Qian Mingyuan smiled bitterly and said, he had lost too many opportunities.

"The price of Beitun red has risen, and they naturally won't waste it casually." Han Peacock said.

"After the golden silk jade became famous, there were fewer hot-headed buyers, after everyone watched the exhibition or publicity, the consumption was more rational, and they knew what kind of carving works had collection value, and the good golden silk jade rough should have good creativity, and good artistic carving was valuable, which was the respect for this kind of jade given by God, and now the market is more mature than the original, so the Hu family father and son have less corrupted golden silk jade." Qianming is far away.

In the past, some people in the market were crazy and confused, so that many people bought inferior carvings, which made the market look hot.

"In fact, these inferior carvings are worthless, as a collection, the quality must be guaranteed, there is room for appreciation." Qian Mingyuan finally said.

"It seems that the Hu family is really profound, otherwise it wouldn't be so wasteful." Han Peacock said.

Wei Changqing said: "If you really love carving, it is better to find some strange stones to carve and play, and now this kind of stone is also selling very well on the market." ”

Qian Mingyuan said: "There are those on the market that specialize in selling low-quality golden silk jade, strictly speaking, this is stone, not jade, and not every stone on the Gobi can be called jade."

As early as the beginning of 2005, the best rough stones on the market only cost a few dozen yuan each, and jade collectors in Modu and Guangdong provinces soon began to buy them in large quantities, and the overall price of golden silk jade was rising by 20% to 30% per year.

In 2010 and 2011, the frozen stone varieties and gemstone light of golden silk jade rose to thousands of yuan or even tens of thousands of yuan. ”

"Frozen stone? It seems that there are really a lot of varieties of golden silk jade that we don't know. Wei Changqing said with a smile at Qian Mingyuan.

"Live and learn, even if I specialize in this, I don't dare to say that I know all the varieties of golden silk jade, let alone more varieties of nephrite." Qianming is far away.

"Where's the frozen stone? What's going on with Frozen Stone? Wei Changqing asked.

"The famous product in the golden silk jade, second only to the gem light is the frozen stone, the unique stone species of Yadan colored jade" light jelly "colorful jade, now more and more favored by investors, in Wuerhe has produced a kilogram of light jelly." Qianming is far away.

"Rare is expensive, those transparent and pure gold silk jade, it is difficult to see, and when I see a piece by chance, the seller expects to be able to sell it at a good price, and the asking price of 80,000 or 100,000 yuan at every turn scares off many buyers from the mainland.

Nowadays, there are very few good ingredients in the market, so many outsiders have gone to the roadside stalls along the way to Ah and Lerthai, or Duge and other places to look for them. Han Peacock said.

Since 2013, in the largest trading market, Wuerhe Jade City, the number of gold silk jade sellers has been much lower than before, and good gold silk jade is now very rare in the market.

"This is also normal, high-quality golden silk jade, now I can't pick up a piece in a month, the poor ones are left out in the market, and the amount of jade that is really traded has decreased." Wei Changqing said.

"So! It's not easy for us to be mixed up with craftsmen. Qian Mingyuan said with emotion.

The nephrite industry, Han Peacock is not very clear, but in the jadeite industry, Han Peacock knows, in the jadeite industry, carvers who do not go out have no way to live.

He knows that there are as many as 40,000 people engaged in the carving industry in just one market in Pingzhou, and this market is a market with the theme of high-grade jade materials such as jadeite, and ordinary carvers have almost no way to survive here.

Thinking about the nephrite jade industry, it is also like this, okay, famous carvers are naturally sought after by others, rushing to invite, and those who are not famous, can only change careers, just like Qian Mingyuan, if it weren't for this reason, Han Peacock wouldn't be able to invite him.

Qian Mingyuan briefly talked about the jade processing situation in Xinjiang and Xinjiang, and Han Peacock knew that most of the shops in Karamay were low-level apprentices, and basically could not make anything with artistic value, so they could only sell gold silk jade to foreign tourists at low-grade prices in some tourist places.

And when foreign tourists get back that level of golden silk jade, they invisibly reduce the quality of golden silk jade in their minds.

The carvers in the south are charged according to the real-time market price, and the carvings are charged according to the working hours, and the working hours range from 300 to 2,000 per day according to the reputation of the carving master, and the price is calculated separately for those with senior titles.

This has an obvious comparison, in this case, it is obviously more profitable to work in the south, so the level of carving in Karamay is getting lower and lower, even if there are some masters, they have left, so in recent years, the local government will hire some masters from the south with high salaries to come over and process all kinds of jade.

"So, all the good jade has fallen into the hands of those masters?" Wei Changqing said with annoyance.

Qian Mingyuan said: "A large part of it fell into the hands of those master carvers, and some private collectors. (To be continued......)
