Chapter 20: The Gambling Stone (Part II)
Chu Chen was surprised that there was actually jadeite in such wool, which was really surprising, and that his ability could really be used in the identification of jadeite, how not to make him happy and excited, and the joy almost made him laugh out loud.
After stabilizing his mood, Chu Chen secretly observed Li Guodong again, fortunately, he was still concentrating on picking wool, and he shouldn't have noticed himself, which couldn't help but make him breathe a sigh of relief, otherwise it would be really difficult to explain to him if he really solved the jade in a while.
Then, he carefully observed the original stone in his hand, the volume of this stone was a little larger than two adult fists, and the whole body was no different from ordinary stones, not to mention what python patterns, pine flowers and the like could be seen from it.
Chu Chen shook his head secretly, as the saying goes, people can't look good, this sentence is also applicable to gambling stone wool, who would think that this kind of brick material will bloom jadeite.
Then, he immediately activated the ability, ready to experience whether the psionic energy in the jade would be any different from the psionic energy in the antique. After the spiritual energy in the wool was absorbed by the left hand, he really noticed a few differences.
First of all, in terms of time, the time for the spiritual energy in the jade to be absorbed should be exactly one second, which is different from the time law in the antiques that Chu Chen obtained before, and he guessed that it was very likely that the time of the jade was fixed.
Then there is the performance of spiritual energy, the spiritual energy in the jade seems to be a little more detailed than that in the antique, Chu Chen thought about it, it can be described as dense, maybe the quality of the spiritual energy in the jade is better than that in the antique.
This point is actually somewhat similar to the spiritual energy absorbed from Jade Ruyi before, the spiritual energy in Jade Ruyi is supple and delicate, Chu Chen thought it was wrong at first, but now it seems that it should be a unique phenomenon of this kind of treasure formed by nature, and the quality of this kind of spiritual energy should be better.
As for the strength of the spiritual energy, it is the same as the previous calculation, representing the high bottom of the value, and the strength of this jadeite ability is similar to the three-fruit pattern bowl seen in Uncle Wu before, and the value should be between six and seventy thousand.
Experiencing the afterglow of spiritual energy, Chu Chen's mood was like drinking honey, he hurriedly squatted down, and began to rummage through this pile of wool again, thinking to himself, since such a piece of jade can be found here, maybe there will be one.
I don't know if it's because he was lucky today, only a few minutes later, he actually felt the reaction of the spiritual energy on a piece of wool, and he couldn't wait to use the ability again, but the result of using it made his face freeze suddenly.
At this time, Chu Chen's mood was like a crow flying in front of his head, how high his expectations were, how big the disappointment was, the spiritual energy in this piece of wool was actually worse than what he absorbed from the copper coin at the beginning, which made him extremely disappointed. But after being disappointed, he immediately woke up again.
Thinking about it, I was really carried away by the interests just now, and I was able to find a valuable jade in this pile of waste, which was already a lucky star, and I actually fantasized about having such good luck, which really shouldn't be, not to mention the disappointment of the result, and wasted an opportunity to use the ability in vain.
In fact, although it depends on luck to open jadeite from gambling stones, most of the wool materials that produce jadeite will have some characteristics on their bodies, such as the brick material in Chu Chen's hand that has no characteristics at all, and the chance of opening high-value jadeite can be said to be almost minimal.
There is a limit to the ability every day, although the performance of the haode wool can be a million profits, but the chance of opening a high-priced jade is too slim, rather than wasting time like this, it is better to use the ability to express the haode wool, so as to maximize the effect of the ability.
If you use the ability like you did every time, you might as well use it on an antique, and you'll have a better chance of picking it up.
After reflecting on his behavior just now, Chu Chen randomly selected a few pieces of wool and put them in the cart on the side, and then said to Li Guodong: "Brother Li, how did you choose, did you receive any goods?" ”
Li Guodong pointed to the wool at his feet and said: "Just these few pieces feel a little bit, and the others are really nothing to look at, forget it, just take these, it's a waste of time to pick them up." ”
Zhang Guosheng's shop has two stone dissolving machines, both of which are placed in the backyard, and after the two settled the account, they came to the backyard with wool together to prepare the stone dissolution.
On the east and west sides of the courtyard were pergolas, and two stone dissolving machines were placed in them. A middle-aged man in his thirties and a young man in his thirties were wearing glasses and cutting wool on the two calcifiers.
There were also a few people around the stone dissolving machine, Zhang Guosheng and the other three were in the east and west, and there were two people in the west, at this time they were all nervously watching the results on the stone dissolving machine, with solemn expressions.
"It's green!"
Suddenly, there was a cheer from the side of the stone dissolving machine in the west, and the two onlookers danced and hugged each other, looking like they were crazy in surprise.
Of the four onlookers from east to west, only one of them glanced at the opposite side enviously, and still stared at the stone solving machine, and the other three immediately rushed over when they heard this, and it was Zhang Guosheng who took the lead, at this time he asked loudly while running wildly:
"What kind of water? What kind of water? ”
Seeing this, Chu Chen and Li Guodong immediately surrounded them.
I saw that after the rough stone as big as a volleyball was washed with water, on the cut surface of the rough stone, you could vaguely see a touch of green inside, and the owner of the original stone hit it with a strong flashlight, and the greenery was instantly filled.
Seeing this, the owner of the original stone trembled a little in his hands, and said in his voice that was so hoarse that he was excited:
"Glass species!"
The man covered his face with his hands and choked up, while his companion kept comforting him.
Glass jadeite, as the name suggests, is as transparent as glass, the quality is very fine, the crystalline particles are dense, and it is the best jadeite. This type of jadeite usually has a vitreous luster, its texture is delicate, pure and flawless, and the color is pure, bright, rich, and uniform emerald green.
Under normal circumstances, the glass species are all from the old pit, so it is often called "old pit glass species" in the industry.
The appearance of the owner of Chu Chen's original stone asked Zhang Guosheng what was going on, and Zhang Guosheng told him the reason for the novel next to him.
This person's surname is Liu, and he is also an old stone gambler, but he used to gamble on stones in another jade shop "Juyuan Pavilion" on the antique street, where it is not like Zhao Guosheng is making a small fuss, and tens of thousands of yuan of stones are very common. If you gamble big, it means that you are more likely to get rich overnight or go bankrupt.
This Mr. Liu belongs to the latter, and he originally had a small company, and his family is also a hot pit for his wife and children. However, a few years ago, after hearing about the gambling stone industry, I plunged into it regardless of whether I had learned it or not, thinking that I could make a lot of money by luck.
The result is conceivable, although there are losses and wins, but there are few wins and many losses, Zuihou is even more bankrupt, and his wife and children have run away with others. In this way, he still didn't give up, but he had no money, so he had to go to Zhang Guosheng to gamble on stones.
After listening to Mr. Liu's deeds, Chu Chen thought, no wonder some people often say that the gambling industry is "crazy people buy, crazy people sell, and crazy people are waiting", which is really the case.
After Mr. Liu stabilized his mind, an old gentleman in the crowd stepped forward and asked, "Mr. Liu, you jadeite, are you interested in making a move?" I'll give 600,000. ”
This old gentleman Chu Chen also knows that he is the owner of a jewelry store "Qian Ji Jewelry Store" on Antique Street, Qian Yiyou, and it can be seen from his name that the strength of Qian Ji Jewelry Store is still very good.
Seeing this, Chu Chen asked Zhang Guosheng next to him a little strangely: "I said Brother Zhang, why don't you go to the bidding, if you want to say that this piece of glass jadeite looks at the size of the wool, it shouldn't be very big, you shouldn't be unable to eat it, right?" ”
Zhang Guosheng smiled and said: "Xiaochen, you just don't understand, this kind of high-grade jadeite must be a lie if you want to say that I am not impressed, but haode jadeite should be carved by haode master, I happen to not have it, and then it will cost a lot to take it down and ask someone to carve it, and I will definitely go up the price when I participate in the bidding, which is really not cost-effective." ”
Chu Chen was a little scoffed when he heard this, Zhang Guosheng is a little childish, if it is himself, as long as he does not lose money, he will definitely do everything possible to buy this piece of jadeite, and then there will be glass jadeite in the store, and the popularity will definitely rise, so as to take this opportunity to enter some mid-range jadeite, and the taste of the whole store will come up.
You know, the jadeite industry, only the high grade can make a lot of money, you don't see the jade rose in recent years, only the top jadeite rose the most, the middle grade second, the low-grade basic rise is very little. Since you are in business, you always take making money as the criterion, and if you have the opportunity, you will not fight.
Of course, Chu Chen just thought about these words in his heart, Zhang Guosheng was not him, and such thoughts would not be said to him.
Mr. Liu, the owner of the jadeite, has already made up his mind, and after listening to Qian Yiyou's offer, he shook his head with a smile and said: "Xiexie Qian Lao's love, but I still want to cut a little more." ”
Qian Yiyou nodded when he heard this, and didn't say anything, although he may pay more money by then, but his risk is gone, after all, this is a business of tens of millions, it is better to be cautious.
Mr. Liu and his friend discussed the facet and asked the master for his opinion, and then drew a line on the rough stone, and then asked the master to cut it.
In the mechanical sound of "Zizi", everyone present waited for the result of this cutting with solemn expressions, and at this time, Chu Chen noticed that the stone dissolving machine in the east had stopped, and the owner of the rough stone was staring gloomily at the rough stone cut in his hand.
