Chen Wenzhe's master pot-making skills were only slightly used on the motorcycle pot.
"There is no place for heroes!" Chen Wenzhe finally discovered that it is difficult to encounter good things at the counter.
On the contrary, it is easier to achieve results in the gold, jewelry and fashion luxury goods counters.
Today, he could be considered a blind cat and encountered a dead mouse, and got a large gold brick and a piece of carmine red porcelain.
Other times, it's just a waste of time, looking at what the hell are you encountering?
Porcelain with stickers on it, jade that looks fake at first glance, and machine-made pots.
Ignore Ye Chengfeng's side and let them look at it as they wish. There won't be anything good anyway.
For Ye Chengfeng and others, letting them come here to sit at the counter is not just a job as a shopkeeper, but to increase their experience and knowledge.
Chen Wenzhe didn't need such knowledge, so he turned on the computer and used the remaining time to look at the internal information, especially the prices of various cultural relics.
Throughout the ages, Chen Wenzhe wanted to look at any antiques that appeared on the market and write them down.
After reading a lot of information and gaining some understanding of price evaluation in the antique market, he felt that any industry has its own necessity.
For example, the price evaluation department does not become an expert just by looking at a few internal documents.
The market is changing every day. If you look up a few pieces of information on the Internet and think you understand the value of something, you are totally wrong.
For example, auction houses will also deliberately send some wrong information online.
There are also some unexpected situations that can also cause market fluctuations in a type of antiques.
For example, in the ancient coin market, which is the most volatile, any archaeological excavation may turn a precious ancient coin into dust.
Of course, things found in archaeological excavations generally do not enter the market.
But what about personal discoveries?
Maybe you don't know when, when you knock down an old house, you will find a jar of silver coins, which is the same type of silver coins in very good condition. If it suddenly appears on the market, the price fluctuations caused will be particularly obvious.
If a veteran acquires a large number of precious ancient coins, he will definitely dispose of them bit by bit and piecemeal. Although this will cause some price fluctuations, it will not be too drastic.
Once the items are received by old players, they will definitely want to collect them. In this way, this batch of silver coins will soon be digested by the market.
At that time, if you buy and sell the same type of silver dollar again, the price will return to normal.
However, there are few veterans after all.
For example, I encountered a sack of ancient coins in the ghost market last time.
If it had not fallen into the hands of Chen Wenzhe, if it had fallen into the hands of a master who was eager to use the money, the price of ancient coins from the Yuan Dynasty would definitely have dropped!
The more information he read, the more Chen Wenzhi learned.
At this time, he no longer wanted to kill the donkey.
According to his original plan, if he learned the valuation skills in the pawn shop, he might resign directly.
But now, he has changed his mind.
Not to mention the benefits of being a second-level appraiser or above, he just couldn't bear to give up this price database that was updated at any time.
Besides, it should be faster to accumulate connections in a pawn shop.
Also, if he becomes a master of the pawn shop, will it be easier to sell something in the future?
Even now, it has become easy for him to sell some jewelry.
Especially after understanding the going prices inside the pawn shop, he was able to sell at a high price.
This is the disadvantage of having no foundation. Chen Wenzhe's family has never produced any rich people in the past generations, and there is no family foundation at all. Now he has to work hard on his own.
When the time was almost up, Chen Wenzhe shut down the computer.
Since he had some free time today, he could contact Zheng Yu and the others and compensate Zheng Yu for his losses.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he got off work, Zheng Yu's phone called.
After agreeing on a meeting place, they quickly went over to have a meal, and then came to a building.
This is a relatively famous jewelry trading center in Dahai City, where gold and jewelry are mainly traded.
There must be many jade, gem, and jade shops and counters among them.
When they came here, Zhang Yijie and the others wanted to see jadeite, while Chen Wenzhe also needed to buy a batch of high-quality gemstones.
It is said that it is a defective product, but it is actually the kind of jewelry that is flawless after some raw ore has been processed.
For example, ruby, as one of the most precious colored gemstones, many modern gem dealers will optimize it to improve the gemstone.
At present, the main improvement methods for rubies include heat treatment, filling treatment, diffusion treatment, dyeing treatment, etc.
Under different conditions, heat treatment of rubies can improve color, clarity, and special optical effects.
What Chen Wenzhe needs is gemstones that have been processed to have high clarity, pure color, and no impurities. Of course, you can also have some gems with impurities. This kind of gemstone is closer to the level of ancient craftsmanship.
However, in ancient times, some inferior gemstones also needed to be processed, and rubies were obviously the best to deal with.
Some rubies have some variegated tones. Under the conditions of oxidation environment of 800-1900℃, the variegated tones can be removed, so that the rubies will appear uniform and bright red.
For example, some Thai rubies often have a brown tone.
There are also some rubies from Vietnam or Myanmar that have some blue tint.
In this way, the brown or blue tones can be removed, improving the color of these rubies and making them more beautiful.
Of course, Chen Wenzhe wanted this gem not to deceive others, but to make porcelain.
For Bao-fired porcelain, it is naturally best to use gemstones that are pure in color and free of impurities.
The most important thing is that these artificially treated gems are cheap.
For Baoyai, such gems are actually the same as natural and beautiful gems.
When I walked into the jewelry center, I immediately saw all kinds of gemstones, and of course the most numerous ones were the various jade counters.
Here, you can find jade beads, bracelets, necklaces, whatever you want, and as soon as they appear, there are lots of them.
Outside, the beautiful jewelry is worn on the body of a famous lady, and here it is like cabbage, piled up casually, which still looks a bit shocking.
Especially those red and sapphires, stacked together, look even more dazzling.
"Wenzhe, can you do it? I'm going to be dazzled!"
After just one moment, Zhang Yijie gave up.
No matter how he looked at it, he thought these jewelry were good things, and none of them looked like they had been treated.
Cao Qingchun also looked helpless. The jewelry here was very beautiful.
"Come upstairs, these are for individual customers, we are big customers." Zheng Yu said with a smile.
"Huh? Little Fatty still knows this?" Zhang Yijie said with a smile.
