Chapter 112: Calcite
Cheng Yunlong was very efficient, and when Zhao Yuan was led into the small courtyard behind the store by Shi Xuemin, he also pulled a stone master to rush over.
With them, there were several other people, all of whom were the owners of the shops that Zhao Yuan had been to before, and when they heard that Zhao Yuan had bought what he wanted, they all ran over, wanting to see what kind of treasure he was in the eyes of this extremely picky person.
As soon as they entered the backyard, they saw the waste stone that Zhao Yuan was holding in his hand, and they were all stunned.
"The stone looks familiar. ”
"I also feel a little familiar...... Hey, isn't that the waste stone that Shi Xuemin bought when he went to Yunnan Province to gamble on stones to see what he bought?"
"This little brother picked and chosen, and finally picked a waste stone? This is too ironic, isn't it! Isn't Cheng Yunlong always by his side? Why didn't he remind him?"
The bosses talked a lot, and they all wondered, how did Zhao Yuan, who was extremely picky with his eyes above the top, buy a waste stone?
Only Boss Zhang, who had been reminded by Zhao Yuan before, guessed: "Could it be that this stone is not a waste stone, but a real treasure?"
Boss Zhang's words immediately attracted the denial and ridicule of other bosses.
"No kidding, this waste stone has been cut several times, if it was really a treasure, it would have come out a long time ago, and it would have waited until now?"
I remember that not long ago, the unwilling Shi Xuemin invited Lin Lao to help him. As a result, after Lin Lao saw it, he made it clear that this was a waste stone! Lin Lao was an old-timer and an authoritative figure in our Rongcheng jade world! He had been in the industry for decades and rarely looked away. Since he said that this stone is a waste rock, then it is 100% a waste stone, and it is impossible to change!"
In the discussion of a group of bosses, Master Jie Shi also saw the stone held in Zhao Yuan's hand, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and turned around to leave.
"Hey, Master Ma, why are you going? Don't go. Cheng Yunlong hurriedly stayed.
"You called me here to cut this stone?" Master Ma pointed to the stone in Zhao Yuan's hand and asked.
"Yes. Cheng Yunlong nodded in response.
"Are you making fun of me? What is there to explain about a waste rock, and let me come, do you think I'm idle?" Master Ma asked dissatisfiedly.
But all the well-known calcite masters refuse to cut the waste stones. On the one hand, he can't show his ability, and on the other hand, he is afraid of ruining his reputation.
Waste stone, not to mention 100% can't produce jade, the probability is also so small that it can be ignored. If he had cut up a waste rock, people in the know would naturally not say anything. But it is inevitable that there will be people who don't know, running out and saying that they have cut a stone and there is no jade at all. People who gamble on stones value luck, and if they are regarded as unlucky, will it not be bad for business?
It is precisely with these concerns and considerations that Master Ma refuses to help cut the waste rocks.
Cheng Yunlong was in a hurry, he finally did something for Zhao Yuan, and he smashed it, isn't this a slap on the horse's leg? He hurriedly persuaded, said all kinds of good things, and even promised to give the other party several times the salary, but it was still useless, this master Ma just refused to let go and agree.
At this time, Zhao Yuan spoke: "Forget it, boss, don't persuade it, you don't have to be a good stone solving master, just find someone who understands stone solving." ”
Cheng Yunlong thought for a while and said, "In this way, if you don't let me come, I will also solve the stone, of course, the skills are not as good as these masters." But if you want to hand over this stone to someone else to solve, I'm afraid that they will solve it for you, so I'm really not at ease. ”
The people who crowded around to watch the excitement couldn't help but laugh in unison.
In their opinion, Cheng Yunlong's words were simply sycophants, and they were undisciplined sycophants.
"A broken stone, what else is there to worry about? I don't believe it, there is still a treasure in this waste stone!" said a man sarcastically after laughing.
Someone next to him coaxed: "Lao Wu, don't say that, what if someone really solves the baby?"
"If I really solve the treasure, I will eat the stone skins that I cut off!" The person who was called Lao Wu obviously didn't know that he had set a flag for himself.
At the same time, Zhao Yuan agreed to Cheng Yunlong's proposal and handed him the stone to help cut it.
Cheng Yunlong hugged the stone, walked to the stone machine, and after debugging the machine, he turned his head and asked Zhao Yuan: "Master Zhao, look, where do we start to solve it?"
"Let's cut it from here. Zhao Yuan gestured on the stone. This knife was enough to split the stone in two.
Master Ma didn't go far, just stood in the crowd and watched the excitement. After hearing Zhao Yuan's command, he couldn't help frowning and muttered, "How can you cut stones like this? Isn't this nonsense?"
Generally speaking, calcite is to first open a small window on the stone, and then carefully observe and analyze, and then find the right direction, layer by layer slowly cut down. After seeing the jade color, it is necessary to polish and refine the jade color. How can anyone move a knife like Zhao Yuan? Is this calcifying stone or cutting pig's head meat?
The people around heard Master Ma's words and said with a smile: "Master Ma, cutting waste stones is originally a nonsense thing. Let's take it as a joke today. ”
When Master Ma heard this, he nodded, thinking that this was the reason.
These people present, except for Zhao Yuan and Cheng Yunlong, and Boss Zhang, who was shocked by Zhao Yuan Xiaolu, the rest of the people took this as a joke and waited to see Zhao Yuan and Cheng Yunlong embarrassed.
Just when people were joking, Cheng Yunlong had already slashed at the stone diagonally according to Zhao Yuan's instructions, dividing it into two stones, one large and one small.
Unexpectedly, the incision of the stone was bare and gray, and there was no trace of jade.
"It's a waste rock!" the people said in unison, with a look of 'I knew this was going to be the case'. Even Cheng Yunlong couldn't help but be a little apprehensive, and glanced up at Zhao Yuan.
"See what I'm doing? ”
Zhao Yuan threw the smaller stone aside, and through the Qi Observation Technique, he could see clearly that there was no Qi in this piece, and Qi existed in the larger stone.
He pointed to the large stone and instructed as he gestured: "Be careful when you cut this time, cut down here, and stop when you reach this position......
Everyone heard Zhao Yuan's words clearly. And so they laughed again.
"This little guy is still addicted to playing, hey. ”
"He really thinks he can see inside the stone, and he tells the stone route so carefully. ”
"This little brother buys waste stones, won't it be just to get over the addiction of calcite?"
Everyone still thinks that it is impossible to cut out the treasure from the waste stone, and Zhao Yuan and Cheng Yunlong are wasting their efforts.
