Chapter 17 Buying Wool
Early the next morning, before 8 o'clock, the zodiac came to the vicinity of Sister Yucheng. However, he did not enter the Jade City directly, but first entered the warehouse he rented yesterday. After closing the door, he sat on the ground and concentrated his mind on the internal condition of the wool in the various shops and stalls in Yucheng. He first scans the interior of the wool and chooses which wool to buy based on the value of the jadeite and jade it contains.
The value of jadeite is not judged by the age, and the purchase of jadeite is not only to choose pure natural authentic products, but also to pay attention to the "species", "color", "water head". "Species" refers to the texture and structure of jadeite, the more delicate the texture, the more crystal clear the jade; "Color" refers to the color, and the color is uniform and the color is positive, thick, and green; "Water head" is transparency, the luster is crystal clear, transparent and clear for the top grade, usually the so-called "glass species" is the jadeite with high transparency. The evaluation of jadeite is distinguished by five aspects: species (4 levels in total), water (5 levels in total), bottom (4 levels in total), color (6 levels in total), and work (4 levels in total).
Species (a total of 4 grades), species refers to the texture of jadeite, but also the most basic description of a jadeite product, in the market of the old species, new species, glass species, ice species, egg white species, bean seeds, oil green seeds, blue flowers, blue water, clear water, etc. are customary commercial names, but because these commercial names do not have a clear definition in the standard, so it can not be used as an accurate grading standard. In fact, the size of the crystalline particles of jadeite and the intersectional relationship of these particles are the main reasons for determining the commercial varieties of jadeite, and the following grading standards have been formulated:
Grade 1: The structure is delicate and dense, no mineral particles and composite primary fissures are found under 10x magnification, and the particle size is less than 0.1mm;
Grade 2: Dense structure, mineral particles and very few fine composite primary fissures can be seen under 10x magnification, and the particle size is 0.1~1mm;
Grade 3: The structure is not dense enough, mineral particles and local fine composite primary cracks can be seen under 10x magnification, and the particle size is 1~3mm;
Grade 4: loose structure, large difference in particle size, particle size above 3mm.
"Water" is an important factor in the evaluation of jadeite, commonly known as "water head" in the industry, high transparency is the head of the water, such jadeite appears crystal clear, giving people a watery feeling, and the poor transparency of the jadeite is dry, dull, giving people a dry feeling, that is, the head is poor, the water is insufficient. The degree of transparency of jadeite can be roughly divided into transparent, relatively transparent, translucent, slightly transparent, and opaque, the more transparent the jadeite, the higher its value:
Grade 1: transparent, sunlight permeable progress of more than 10mm, pure and colorless old glass floor;
Grade 2: more transparent, sunlight permeability 6~10mm, a small amount of old glass ground premium products;
Grade 3: translucent, sunlight permeable progress 3~6mm, old glass floor, ice special grade;
Grade 4: slightly transparent, sunlight transparency: 1~3mm, strong color, coarse grain, new and old species;
Grade 5: Opaque, sunlight does not penetrate, color is thick, the bottom is poor, and new species.
Bottom (a total of 4 grades), the bottom refers to the degree of jadeite flocculent (also known as cotton), black spots, and other color spots. Since jadeite is an aggregate of a variety of minerals, its structure is mostly fibrous structure and granular structure, the degree of impurities will inevitably affect the value of jadeite.
Grade 1: There are no cracks, gray and black silk under 10x magnification, and there are occasional white cotton and small black in inconspicuous places; dot
Grade 2: There are no cracks under 10x magnification, and a small amount of fine white cotton, black spots, and gray and black silk are seen;
Grade 3: no cracks visible to the naked eye, a small amount of cracks under 10x magnification, a small amount of white cotton, black spots and a small amount of ice slag visible to the naked eye;
Grade 4: A small amount of cracks and more white cotton, black spots, gray silk and ice slag can be seen with the naked eye.
Color (a total of 6 grades), jadeite common colors are green, white, red, purple, yellow, etc., among which green is the best variety, if a jadeite has both green, red and violet, it is also a very rare jadeite. For green jadeite (such as ring noodles), there are traditionally "thick", "positive", "yang", and "and". The so-called "thick" refers to the green color is full and heavy; "Positive" means that the green color is pure, without variegation; "Yang" means bright and bright green; "And" means that the green color is uniform and soft. Viewing jadeite under a continuous light source with a color temperature of 5000K is graded as:
Grade 1: pure green, emerald, emerald green, etc., extremely uniform, not thick, not light, bright and bright;
Grade 2: positive green, apple green, yellow seedling green, etc., with thick bands on the uniform whole, patches, spots, not thick as a whole, not light and bright;
Grade 3: positive green, apple green, yellow seedling green, etc., the overall unevenness, different shades, bright and bright;
Grade 4: slightly blue-green (including bright red and violet of yellow-green), uniform, not thick, not light, moist and bright;
Grade 5: blue-green, uniform, not thick, not light, moist and bright;
Grade 6: gray-blue (including light yellow-green, light red, light violet), uniform, elegant, and bright.
(Author's note: As for the final "work", because the jadeite jade is still in the wool, it will no longer be introduced.) )
It took more than half an hour for Huang Dao to pick out the wool of jade and jade, which had reached the level 1 standard in four aspects, such as seed, water, bottom, and color, to make a spiritual mark, and he monitored it in real time with his own mental power. There were thousands of tons of wool in the entire sister jade city, and Huang Dao found 49 pieces of wool containing grade 1 standard jadeite jade.
After the preparation, Huang Dao locked the warehouse door and officially went to buy jade wool. After he entered the Jade City, the first thing he wanted to buy was, of course, the most valuable piece of wool in the spiritual logo, which contained a full-colored glass imperial green jadeite that reached the level 1 standard. The wool weighs about 1 ton, and the jadeite weighs more than 300 kilograms. The Zodiac preliminarily estimates that its value can reach at least 2 billion yuan at present, and if the jewelry made of this material is put into ten years, it can reach at least 10 billion RMB.
The piece of wool was placed in front of a Burmese-owned shop, and Huang Dao went over to ask for the price, and the Burmese boss offered 3 million yuan in Mandarin with a strange accent. Huang Dao picked up a few pieces of wool that also contained grade 1 jadeite jade and asked for the price, and the Myanmar boss also quoted the price separately. After calculating the zodiac, the total is only in the early 5 million.
So, Huang Dao said to the boss: "I want all the wool I just asked, you can erase the odds for me, the total is 5 million yuan, and then help me send it to the edge of Yucheng." No. warehouse. If you're happy, I'll transfer it to you right away. ”
The Myanmar boss looked happy and agreed, saying that there was no problem. The price he offered was actually more than 1 times higher than his own psychological price, and he was waiting for the zodiac to bargain. Unexpectedly, the zodiac did not make a counteroffer at all, and the Burmese boss secretly laughed at the zodiac money and many people were stupid.
And Huang Dao looked at the Burmese boss with a happy face, and secretly laughed in his heart that this Burmese had suffered a big loss and didn't know it.
After the transfer was completed, after the store asked the man to load all the wool he bought into the truck, he also sat in the passenger seat of the truck and instructed the driver to drive the car to the door of the warehouse he rented. After getting off the car, Huang Dao opened the warehouse door, let the truck reverse into the warehouse, directly cocked the rear body, and unloaded all the wool on the ground.
After casually taking out a few hundred RMB to send these people away, Huang Dao closed the door of the warehouse, and in his heart, he directly collected these wool materials into his mental space, which was the safest.
Then, Huang Dao walked out of the warehouse and continued to enter the sister to buy wool. According to the order of the value of the jade and jade inside the wool, Huang Dao walked over one by one, and did not waste time by bargaining, and basically bought more than 40 pieces of wool that were the key points of his spiritual identification. In the same way, let the store load the truck and send it to the warehouse, and then receive it in the telepathic space.
Of course, not all of the 49 pieces of wool marked by the zodiac were bought, and 5 were bought by others. Of the five pieces of wool that were bought, one was bought by the Japanese people. Huang Dao thought to himself, the other 4 pieces were bought by the Chinese, so forget it. If the Japanese want to buy what they have marked, then they can't. Huang Dao took advantage of the fact that he had not yet transported it, and stood on the side as if he was picking wool, but in fact, he concentrated his mental power to pull out the jade and jade in the wool bought by the Japanese people. The vacated space inside the wool, Huang Dao used his mental power to cut a few stones inside the leftovers of the shops around him, and filled them perfectly into the wool. Under the nano-level telekinesis micro-manipulation, the filled stones and wool are perfectly combined, and it is impossible to tell whether it is fake.
In this way, when it was almost half past eleven, the zodiac had 45 pieces of jade and jade wool. Its value, even if it is not calculated by making jewelry, can be conservatively estimated to reach at least 5 billion RMB.
After eating at noon, Huang Dao stayed in his hotel room and did not go out. He hung up the Do Not Disturb sign, locked the door, and entered the space, preparing to cut out the jade and jade from the 44 pieces of wool by himself.
The zodiac starts with the lowest value wool and uses mental power to cut. Because when cutting wool, you should always pay attention to the jadeite jade that cannot be cut inside, and it is necessary to cut slowly and carefully along the shape of the jade, which takes more time. As for why doesn't the zodiac just dig it out with mental power? On the one hand, it is because it consumes more mental power by directly digging with mental power, which is almost ten times that consumed by cutting. On the other hand, it is also to hone his own micro-operation ability.
It took more than four hours for the zodiac to cut out all the jadeite and jade. He held each piece of jade and jade one by one in his hand, and carefully sensed it with his telekinesis, but he was disappointed to find that these jadeites were not legendary spirit stones, and they did not contain spiritual energy.
Huang Dao left the space, lay down on the bed and rested for a while, seeing that it was almost dinner time, so he prepared and went out for dinner.
The zodiac consumes more mental power in the afternoon, and people are more tired, so they don't have the energy to go shopping outside. I ate it in the hotel restaurant, and then went back to the room to rest early, and I was ready to go to Ruili Jade Jewelry Street early tomorrow morning to buy some wool to see if I could find jade jade containing aura.
