Chapter 1,368: Everything is fate, no one can control it at all
"Huang Yu?" Chen Wenzhe was really surprised this time.
This piece is a raw stone, not a finished piece of carved jade.
The color of Hetian jade's topaz is original, and Chen Wenzhe naturally recognized it.
This is a characteristic dignified yellow, a tender yellow with a slight yellow-green tint.
If the color is too light, it cannot be called topaz. If the color is green, it is called "Huangkou material" (yellow-green sapphire). If it is brown, the color is not correct.
The production of topaz with pure color is very small, and even its current value is definitely not lower than that of mutton-fat white jade.
And what are these in front of him? They are large and small, and the color is not very beautiful, but Chen Wenzhe can tell at a glance that these are raw jade stones.
Previously, he bought a lot of Hetian jade seeds through the guy who went to Dahai City Emperor Temple.
It was also at that time that he witnessed various fraud methods used in Hetian jade rough stone.
If what we saw that time was a complete collection of fake Hotan seeds, then what we saw this time was a complete collection of real topaz.
It can be said that there are all kinds of topaz here, including peeled jade flesh and intact seeds with shells.
Big or small, no matter how you look at it, it feels like topaz, and its quality is not low.
The most important thing is that the Hotan topaz here is available in various colors and is very complete.
Obviously, this was a special collection that took a lot of effort. Unexpectedly, Chen Wenzhe got it all at once.
Looking at these topaz, Chen Wenzhe was really a little emotional.
These large and small jade stones, piled together, look really spectacular.
"How many are there?" Chen Wenzhe had also seen the world, but he was still shocked when he suddenly saw half a cabin of jade in a cabin.
"Boss, didn't I tell you? At that time we thought it was a ballast stone. Do you think the ballast stone can be reduced?" Gao Qijing said with a smile.
"Ballast stone?" Chen Wenzhe was a little surprised.
What are ballast stones? Ballast stones are mainly materials that can effectively stabilize the center of gravity during the emptying process.
In the early years, stones were used for ballast.
Currently, all ballast stones in ocean-going cargo ships are made of cast iron according to standards.
Obviously, it was impossible to use iron blocks on ancient ocean ships because they were too expensive.
"If it's really a ballast stone, maybe we won't get much this time!" Gao Qijing said with a happy face.
Shenma gained very little? However, if it is really a ballast stone, then on that sunken ship, only the wreckage has ballast stone?
"If there are both, there may be more jade hidden under the seabed in that sea area!" Chen Wenzhe reacted.
"Definitely, we will go there and do a sweep next time."
As he spoke, Gao Qijing's mouth was already split.
The harvest this time is really huge, so not only the boss will make a fortune, but employees like Gao Qijing will also definitely make a big fortune.
You must know that Chen Wenzhe is a very generous boss. As long as there is gain, he will never treat his employees badly.
Also, as long as it is not a precious cultural relic, they can get a share directly.
Not money, but treasures, just like the previous gems, gold, etc.
As long as they want it, Chen Wenzhe is not stingy and will give them whatever they want.
They have a lot of gold and some precious stones, but now they are short of jade.
The wife and children at home all lack jade for decoration.
I have to say that after following a good boss, Gao Qijing and the others have become much more ambitious.
It turns out that it would be very good to have some money and pay a down payment to buy a house.
If they could still live in a school district and let their children go to a good school, they would be very satisfied.
But what about now? They are actually worried about food, clothing, housing and transportation. They are so luxurious that they don’t even care about gold jewelry anymore?
It's a pity that the gold bricks he brought home were all rejected.
Who made those gold bricks so heavy that their family members would be tired even if they carried them once?
After all, the density of gold bricks is high, and although they look small, they are really heavy.
For example, a gold brick that is twice as big as a brick weighs forty or fifty kilograms.
If it is a bucket weighing 40 to 50 kilograms, it is okay to carry it. Even if it is very heavy, most people can lift it.
However, two bricks of gold at such a small size cannot be picked up with one hand, and it would be difficult to hold them with both hands.
Maybe this is the trouble of rich people? Gao Qijing's thoughts have already flown home, and he has not gone back for a long time.
Chen Wenzhe didn't know what he was thinking, he just stared at the pile of jade stones in a daze.
Gao Qijing and the others were really lucky. If this batch of jade had not been hidden in the cabin and salvaged by them as a whole, they might not have fallen into their hands.
If the cabin carrying this batch of jade is broken and the jade is scattered to the seabed, how will they salvage it?
The most important thing is that they will definitely not know that the stones scattered on the seabed or even buried in the sand are topaz of the highest quality.
Also, if the stones in the cabin had been discovered at that time, would they have thrown them to the bottom of the sea and only salvaged the cabin?
Everything is fate, nothing is up to you!
By all the coincidences, they spent a lot of money to salvage the half-broken cabin from the water.
After cleaning up, half the cabin of the ship was actually cleaned out and found topaz of the highest quality. How can I explain this?
Chen Wenzhe's carving skills must have reached the master level.
It's just that he didn't have much time, and he didn't have good jade that allowed him to show off his skills.
Even so, the figures he carved before can shock the jaws of many collectors.
Now that he has a lot of top-quality materials, can he carve an exquisite pagoda?
He can also carve that kind of smoke and clouds, dream-like effect, right?
It's a pity that these are topaz, and the use of phantom withering technology on them requires careful thinking.
But where did the topaz with such rich colors come from?
He knew that as early as the 1960s and 1970s, the jade in Hotan was as good as Chinese cabbage.
If this is true, then how many top-quality jade stones were there in the river valley over there during the Ming and Qing Dynasties?
Originally, he didn't have a clear understanding, but now that he has seen so many high-quality topaz, Chen Wenzhe understands a little bit.
The resources over Hotan turned out to be really rich, otherwise it would not be possible to explain the jade in this half of the cabin!
"Egg yolk? Is this chestnut yolk, or beeswax yolk?"
Topaz is named dense wax yellow, chestnut yellow, okra yellow, yellow flower yellow, egg yolk, etc. according to the color change.
Dense sallow yellow and chestnut yellow with strong color are extremely rare. The value of this kind of jade can be compared with that of mutton-fat white jade.
"Is this a jade frog?"
Sandwiched among a pile of jade raw materials, he actually dug out a jade frog.
The shape of this jade frog is very simple, only the shape of the frog is roughly carved out.
Withering is simple, but looking at the period of existence is not simple?
