Chapter 4 Identification of Rough Stones

Yu Hai got up at dawn the next day, looked at his mobile phone and was only 7 o'clock, went to the toilet to brush his teeth and wash his face as usual, came out to change his clothes, and then came to the sofa and sat down.

Take out the small package from the space, take the smallest one of each color from the rough stone, draw a few paper towels, wrap them separately, and then put them in a plastic bag and put them in the space. If you put it directly in your pocket, I'm afraid that if you don't pay attention to it for a while, it's okay if it's just crystal, if it's a gem or diamond, Yu Hai is estimated to be uncomfortable for a while. After all, there is still a big one in hand, and there must be many more in the primitive tribe.

I took my mobile phone and wallet, went to the breakfast shop near the community, ordered a bowl of wonton noodles, and ate it with a suck.

At this time, it is already 8 o'clock, and the shops do not open until 10 o'clock, so they take the bus to the city center slowly, and it is only 9 o'clock at most, so you can only go home first.

Yu Hai rents a loft-style house, a tall and open space, a double-storey duplex structure, with its own independent bathroom, an open kitchen, and a folding bed-type double sofa. The apartment is surrounded by supporting facilities, gymnasium, mini supermarket, restaurant, etc. For white-collar workers like Yu Hai, such a living environment is good, but unfortunately the rent is also not cheap, and half of Yu Hai's salary is removed from the monthly rent.

Back at the apartment, open the laptop, and log on to Taobao to search for farming tools.

When I was in the primitive tribes, I didn't seem to see them using iron tools, so I think it should be that the social civilization has not yet developed to the Iron Age, which is estimated to be the Stone Age. So Yu Hai plans to bring them some hoes or something, go over and see their reactions, and then consider buying in large quantities.

Shopping around on the Internet, I found a relatively high evaluation, hoes, shovels, shovels, sickles and other agricultural tools, and bought 5 each. I thought that they often went in and out of the jungle, and they definitely needed a mountain knife, and then I searched again, but I didn't find it, thinking that it was a restriction on controlled knives. However, there are similar mountain axes for sale, so let's try them first.

Yu Hai also thought that there were many tools suitable for primitive people, such as saws, bamboo baskets, etc. However, good things can't be taken out all at once, they must be taken slowly, step by step, starting with farm tools.

After an order, it cost a few thousand, and after looking at the shipping address, it is estimated that it will not be received until next Monday.

It was already half past nine, and now that I was out, the store was almost open. Yu Customs got on the computer, took his mobile phone and went out.

At 10 o'clock, I came to the city center, there are high-rise buildings everywhere, surrounded by office buildings, and it is not very far from where Yu Hai works, just across the street. Although it is very close to the company, Yu Hai is not familiar with this side. Nowadays, people are popular for online shopping, and everything they need is to place an order online, so Yu Hai almost doesn't go shopping, and the last time he came here was because of the company's dinner.

Entering the mall, I came to the front of the electronic map, searched for jewelry stores, and then there were 7-8 jewelry stores of different brands displayed, including those that mainly sell gold and silver jewelry, those that specialize in artificial gemstones, and Pandora, which is very popular with female colleagues in the company.

Basically, these stores are concentrated on the first and second floors, Yu Hai decided to start looking for them from the first floor, and went in when they looked pleasing to the eye. It didn't take long for Yu Hai to come to the first jewelry store, and when he looked outside, this one sold gold and silver jewelry, and it seemed that he didn't see gemstones, so Yu Hai didn't go in. Next door to this store, there is also a gold and silver jewelry store, so peers like to pile together. Where there is a McDonald's, there must be a KFC, and there must be a store such as gucii near LV.

After walking a short distance, I finally found a shop that specializes in diamonds, and the name of the store is Diamond. It may be that it is still early, even on weekends, and there are still no customers in the store, only two clerks watching the store. As soon as Yu Hai came in, the two clerks immediately looked at the door, and one of the clerks greeted him.

"Hello, sir, is there anything that can help you?"

"Hello, I'll see for myself first. ”

"Okay, please call me if you need anything. ”

Yu Hai started to look at the nearest counter, all of them were diamond rings, and the lights were bright and bright, which was a bit dazzling. Sure enough, jewelry only shines when it shines under the light. After walking around, Yu Hai felt that his eyes were about to be blinded, so he stopped watching anymore, and at this time, the clerk came over.

The female clerk looked 25-26, her hair was coiled behind her head, and no shredded hair fell out, and the whole person looked very capable. A white shirt and a ginger waist skirt make people look decent but not as formal as black. Wearing light makeup, it doesn't look glamorous, and it won't steal the limelight from some girls.

"Sir, which one do you like, do you need to take it out and take a look?"

"Well, no. I see that your styles here are very good, I provide rough stones, can I help with processing here?" Yu Hai was embarrassed to ask people to help identify in vain, and then he didn't buy anything, so he could only find an excuse to help with processing, and he would definitely help identify before processing, if there was no value in processing, then the excuse was that he bought a fake and left. If it's really a gemstone or something, you can just ask the price, and besides, the processing fee shouldn't be too expensive, it should be.

Besides, my sister's birthday is at the end of the month, so if it's a real gemstone, it's good to process it into jewelry and give it to her.

"Sir, we are here by OEM service, we will decide the price according to the style and materials. Have you brought your rough stones, we need to identify them first. ”

"There are brought, wait a minute. As he spoke, he reached into his pocket, thinking about what he wanted to take, and then took out the three balls of tissues wrapped in a plastic bag from his pants pocket.

The clerk first put on gloves, then took out cashmere cushions and spread them on top of the glass table. The other clerk didn't see any other customers, so he came over. She looked at the three paper balls together, and could only smile helplessly.

But Yu Hai opened the three paper balls and put the three rough stones on the flannel. The clerk first looked at it carefully, then looked at the light again, and then took out a small flashlight from the counter, first to see the brightness.

Looking at the earnest attitude of the clerk, Yu Hai was 50% sure that it should be a diamond or a gemstone, and if it was a crystal or something, they should not look at it again. Now it should be them who have determined the authenticity of these primitives, and they have been graded.

After another round of testing, the clerk put down the three rough stones, and then said: "After preliminary identification, your three rough stones are garnet, sapphire and white gemstone. This sapphire is supposed to be an Indian Kashmir sapphire with a blue color of chrysanthemum, which is indigo with a hint of purple. The brightness of the color is large and the color is vivid. Misty inclusions with milky white reflective effect. It is a high-quality sapphire variety. However, due to the fact that the mining area is located at the northwest end of the Himalayas, at an altitude of more than 5,000 meters, it has been shrouded in fog all year round, and has not produced in recent years. This sapphire is irregular oval, this is a 3.6 carat sapphire rough, after hot processing and polishing, it is expected to have 2.6-2.9 carats, your sapphire has reached the blue degree of the chrysanthemum, the market price is about 250,000 to 300,000, according to the grade of the gemstone, the processing cost of the rough is 15% of the market price of the gemstone, and then the design cost needs to be decided according to your requirements for the design. The final price is about 40,000+. ”

When Yu Hai heard this, he was frightened by the processing fee of 40,000 yuan, all the money in his bank card was not enough, and he thought that there was another bigger sapphire in the space, so he sold the big one, and then made the small one into jewelry and gave it to his sister as a birthday gift.

"Well, I still have a sapphire here, can you help me identify it?"

"Yes, sir. ”

Yu Hai took out the larger sapphire from the space and put it on top of the flannel, and at the same time put away the garnet and white gems on the flannel. Just now, the clerk didn't elaborate on these two kinds of stones, just said the name, it has always been worthless, put it away, go back and check it on the Internet.

Seeing the sapphire that Yu Haixin took out, the two clerks were startled by the size of the sapphire, and hurriedly came up and weighed it, 7.8 grams, although this rough stone does not look as good as the color of the one just now, but it can't stand the weight of this one. After a round of identification, this sapphire is also very charming because of its purple color, which looks like the color of the starry sky, but it still can't be compared with the previous moment, and the final market price is 200,000 to 250,000.

Yu Hai thought about it, anyway, the price of the two gems is about the same now, and Yu Hai himself prefers the purple sapphire with the color of the starry sky. The decision is made, then it will be good to send it big, they are all a family, and the vision is similar.

"Well, I'll process this big one, and then this small sapphire rough, do you buy it here?"

"Sir, that's right, if you buy, we need to send someone from the company to sign a contract with you, I just roughly help you estimate the value here, and the specific purchase price needs to be discussed with the appraiser sent by the company. The clerk returned.

"Okay, is that okay now?"

"No problem, I'll call the company right away, please take a break. ”
