Chapter 299: Color Blindness

Not finding anything abnormal, Xiao Chen followed Ningxia into the jade shop.

At this time, Ningxia had carefully identified the wool of an old elephant skin.

Generally speaking, the wool of old elephant skin, which is old and has a good texture, is the easiest to block the jadeite in the glass ground.

"How? Are you optimistic about this piece of wool? Xiao Chen walked over and asked Ningxia.

Ning Xia shook his head, sighed slightly, pointed to a similar crack on the jade rough and said, "There are locks!" ”

Xiao Chen looked at the rough stone carefully, and sure enough, he saw the locks. The locks that appear on this jadeite rough are actually cracks, also known as cracks, usually called cracks for large ones, and small ones for locks, and also for those who are generally called big locks and small locks. The damage to jade is great, which directly affects the material and appearance, so it is a performance that cannot be ignored. Experienced gambling stone players often say: not afraid of big cracks, afraid of small locks; Rather gamble on sex than on locks.

There is a yellow rust color next to the lock, such a lock, called the flame lock, if this kind of lock, it will eat the color, and the color will be eaten dry.

Ningxia has actually seen through this piece of jadeite wool, the absolute glass jadeite, extremely pure, but the color is too bad, so she shook her head and sighed.

Ningxia turned to look at a piece of jadeite rough next to her, this piece is also more optimistic about her, red and yellow shell, and there is fog, at first she thought that this is the wool of the Mukan factory, and it will produce red and yellow jadeite.

However, Xiao Chen disagreed and told her, "The red and yellow jadeite in the Damukan factory is quite famous, but it does not mean that the jadeite rough at the entrance of the factory only produces red and yellow jadeite." ”

Ningxia nodded, but her hard-based knowledge of jade gambling stones was still not good, she felt that she definitely didn't know as much as Xiao Chen, who grew up in Myanmar, and knew so much experience in gambling stones, so she didn't show anything, and didn't hesitate to use her cheat - Green Vine.

There are green vines to help her, Ningxia's field of vision slowly shows the internal form of the jade rough, her gaze penetrates the shell, there are red and yellow jade skins, she also thought that she saw a piece of red and yellow double jade, but it was just a piece of flesh skin no more than one centimeter, just like a fruit skin, wrapped in the jade flesh turned out to be the violet color of the ice species.

Ningxia was surprised, she always thought that there were more red and yellow jadeite in the Damukan factory, but she didn't expect that there would be red and yellow violets here. So he turned his head to Xiao Chen and said, "Is it possible that the jade rough from the Mukan Factory will produce violets?" ”

Xiao Chen nodded and said with a smile, "In the third-layer mine of Damukan Factory, there are many yellow and yellow skins, orange and yellow skins, red and yellow skins, and weathered skins. There is often a yellow mist under the skin, that is, Huang Fei, and the green one in the yellow Fei is commonly known as "Yellow Sandwich Green", and the outer skin is relatively thin, and the small lump is more common, and there are also large ones. It often produces bean green or melon green, and also has subcutaneous green, and occasionally there are good water heads full of green and high green, clumps of high green boxwood green and seedling green. There are relatively few cracks, and the species change greatly, from bean species to glass species, mainly Laochang bean species, waxy bean species and waxy species, and medium coarse jade to fine jade. The old bottom is good, yellow and red and yellow skin, the meat is mostly violet and white, the whole yellow is rare, and the ice yellow and green are extremely rare, so there is a gambling nature, especially the weathered skin "head covering", the risk is relatively large. ”

Ningxia suddenly realized, I have to say that her knowledge of a jade factory is still less, and the gambling experience is superficial. In the past, it was determined that the Damukan factory produced red and yellow jadeite, and the most famous was the rare blood jade, and the fire jade.

Seeing that Xiao Chen's knowledge was so extensive, Ningxia had the heart to make fun of him, and said with a smile, "I was born in Myanmar, but I can't speak Burmese, but I am so proficient in jade gambling stones, do you love beautiful jade more than people." ”

Xiao Chen laughed, and then stared at Ningxia with a little bad eyes, laughing and not speaking, Ningxia was seen by Xiao Chen's eyes, his face turned red involuntarily, and he hurriedly turned his head and shouted to the guy in the store, "I want this piece of wool." ”

The owner of the shop came over with his buddy, and finally the owner of this house didn't understand Chinese, but the guy was a native Chinese, so there was no problem in communicating.

Although the violet was of the ice species, it was still very happy because Ningxia saw a violet with red and yellow jade skin for the first time. She is not the kind of person who always wants to achieve it overnight, everyone loves the best jade gambling stone, but she can't meet it well.

"The jade wool in this store is all from the old pit, which is very good." After Xiao Chen also walked around the store, he came back and said to Ningxia that she should choose more wool here.

Ningxia naturally knows it, she has more wool in contact, and her eyesight is stronger, not as eyeless as when she first entered the industry. It's a bit like the feeling she felt when she bought brand-name brands and street stalls, and she saw a lot of vision, even if she didn't buy it, she could see the kind of vision that passers-by could see at a glance when they saw a brand-name bag or a cheap bag.

Ningxia soon fell in love with a gray-black jadeite rough of about 200 kilograms, the skin of this rough stone is quite thin, there is a feeling of ink and jade, it seems that there is a dark green soaked in the shell, to reveal the feeling.

When Ningxia hits the rough stone with its own strong light, you can see the faint ink cuilai. Ningxia was overjoyed, she had gambled on a lot of the best jadeite, all kinds of colors, even the rare emerald jadeite and blood jade, she had gambled, but she had never met Mocui.

Jadeite in the green is precious, the highest value is the emerald gemstone jadeite, Oriental people unanimously take green jadeite is better, black or similar to black jadeite has always been considered evil or ominous color, so no one has cared about it. However, after the era entered the 21st century, with the scarcity of jadeite raw materials, the influence of Chinese people's ideological and cultural changes, and because some famous jade carving masters loved Mocui's works, people gradually changed their values of Mocui, and the price of Mocui was gradually rising.

Mocui is a scarce variety of jadeite, which is a kind of two-color jadeite, and the "ink" in Mocui, as the name suggests, is black; "Emerald" refers to the green color of jadeite. The characteristic of the ink is that it appears black on the surface, but it appears a deep dark green or dark green in transmitted light. In fact, it is not black jadeite, but a very dark green, or rather, it is black in appearance due to the excessive concentration of green. So ink emerald is not equal to black emerald.

Mo Cui also has a more romantic name, called the shadow of the lover, because she is like the black and bright hair of the fairies in the sky recorded in the Buddhist scriptures, which is black and shiny under the normal light, but under the strong light, it reveals a magical dark green, so this dreamy color is compared to the beautiful shadow that occupies the man's heart - the shadow of the lover.

It also has the shadow of another successful man, because it follows the man like a majestic figure formed behind a man who has achieved great things.

Since ancient times, China has black evil spirits, the theory of self-protection, the theory of yin and yang five elements: "black belongs to water, water can gather wealth", there is also a saying, from the perspective of health, Mocui has a very strong magnetic field energy than other jadeite. It is in this way that Mocui is more and more valued by people.

Xiao Chen saw that Ningxia was interested in this gray-black jadeite rough, and after coming over and observing it carefully, he actually said to Ningxia: "This piece of wool is not performing very well. ”

Ningxia was slightly surprised, she just felt that Xiao Chen had a lot of experience in gambling stones, why was he like a beginner who didn't know how to gamble stones for a while? The dark green is about to show through the skin, and he hasn't even seen it?

"Don't you think this is going to be a piece of wool?" Ningxia asked Xiao Chen a little puzzled, she really didn't know why he was not optimistic about this piece of wool.

"The skin is thick, and the texture is coarse, and the emerald is not a good emerald, not to mention that there are no three major characteristics of the gambling stone on this rough stone." Xiao Chen continued to say with a counter-opinion.

Ningxia was stunned, looked down at the jade rough, and didn't understand where Xiao Chen's words came from, obviously this wool leather shell was smooth and delicate, and it felt very good, how could he say it like a layman.

"No, I think this piece of wool is quite delicate." Ningxia raised her eyes and looked at Xiao Chen and said, she was really strange in her heart at this moment.

"This piece of gray-white wool should be the wool of the Dragon Sugar Factory, the seed is not old enough, the water is insufficient, and the possibility of emerald is extremely small." Xiao Chen still shook his head and said.

Ningxia laughed this time, burst out laughing, and then looked at Xiao Chen with some amusement, looked at him carefully for a long time, and saw that Xiao Chen was a little hairy, looked him up and down, and thought that something was wrong with him, so Ningxia looked at him so strangely.

"What's wrong?" Xiao Chen was really a little stunned by Ningxia and a little overwhelmed.

Ningxia smiled even more happily, it was the first time she had seen Xiao Chen look so messy, and she had been infinitely embarrassed in front of him before.

"What the hell is going on?" Xiao Chen didn't find anything wrong with him, so he could only ask Ningxia with a smile helplessly.

Ningxia finally stopped laughing, and then said, "I forgot that many men are somewhat colorblind." ”

"Color blindness?" Xiao Chen was obviously surprised himself, or he didn't realize that he was color blind.

Ningxia tilted his head and looked at him playfully, and asked rhetorically, "Isn't it?" This is obviously a piece of gray-black wool? How do you say off-white? ”

Xiao Chen laughed when he heard that Ningxia was for this reason, not only did he not face her problem, but looked at Ningxia strangely and said, "You said this is a gray-black wool?" Then he frowned again, as if he was thinking very seriously, before saying, "No, even if you are colorblind, the most indistinguishable thing should be color, not black and white." ”

"Hah!" Ningxia's eyes widened, looking at Xiao Chen incredulously, more and more incomprehensible, obviously he was color blind, how could he say her in turn? "Obviously you are color blind, you can't see such gray-black wool, you can't say it's gray-white."

Xiao Chen was stunned, and after being stunned for a long time, he didn't argue with Ningxia, he directly called the translator they hired and asked him, what color is that piece of wool?

"Off-white!" The translator said with great certainty.

Ningxia immediately questioned and classified the translator as colorblind.

Xiao Chen saw that Ningxia was still insisting on his opinion, so he simply called the guy in the store over and asked him.

The guy said, "This is gray-white wool, we are all Chinese, meet fellow countrymen in this foreign place, don't say anything about fellow villagers seeing fellow countrymen, two tears in your eyes, I will tell you the truth, this piece of wool has been put for several years, it has not been sold, if you want, you can also get a five-fold discount." ”

Ningxia was stunned for a moment.
