Chapter Three Hundred and Thirty-Seven Leakage of Wealth (Part 2)
At this time, not many people were paying attention to Ye Tian's solution stone. If you have this free time, you might as well think about the rough stone you bought, so after Ye Tian cut it with a knife, only three or five people were paying attention.
"Tch... it's gone up?!"
The person who paid the most attention to Ye Tian's attack was undoubtedly Wen Luanxiong. He had always wanted to find out whether Ye Tian's statement that he had leaked money was true or false.
The answer was revealed with Ye Tian's strike. Regardless of the quality of the jadeite inside, Wen Luanxiong gave away this piece of jadeite in vain, and the theory of leakage of wealth was already certain.
"It's so green, it's a good material!"
"Hurry up, clean it and take a look..."
Wen Luanxiong's voice also attracted the people around him. In the stone gambling circle, you may not be remembered if you fail a hundred times, but if you rise sharply once, you will definitely become famous.
.
"Master, that green... green is a bit dazzling!"
Before the staff could take action, A Ding brought a basin of water and carefully cleaned the palm-sized window.
"Let me take a look..." Zuo Jiajun heard this and pushed A Ding away, took out a fluorescent flashlight, turned it on, and placed the flashlight tightly on the cut surface.
"Wow!"
It was getting late at this time, and people were surrounding the stone cutter, so the light was a little dark. When Zuo Jiajun's flashlight shone on the original stone, there was a unanimous cry of exclamation from all around.
It's not that these people are ignorant. On the contrary, they have all dealt with Jade for at least five years, but they have never seen the scene before them.
Just after the flashlight matched the cut surface, a refreshing green color came out from the aperture of the flashlight, turning Zuo Jiajun's right hand holding the flashlight into a green color.
"This... what kind of jade is this?"
Looking at the green of the aperture, Zuo Jiajun was also stunned. He had been betting on stones and jade for ten or twenty years, but he had never seen such a simple and almost perfect color.
An old man with white hair who looked to be in his seventies suddenly shouted: "Mo...could it be imperial green?!"
As soon as the old man said this, the noisy place suddenly became silent. Everyone was staring at the rough stone that was still fixed on the stone cutter with extremely eager eyes.
"Senior brother, what is imperial green?"
If there was anyone in this scene who didn't understand the old man's words, it was naturally Ye Tian. He even learned the terms glass species and ice species today, and of course he didn't know what imperial green was.
"We'll talk about this later, Xiguo, give me the grinder."
Zuo Jiajun waved his hand and stretched out his uninjured hand like his son-in-law. However, after getting the grinder, Zuo Jiajun thought of the injury on his hand and said with a wry smile: "Ye Tian, you better do it, Qian
Be careful!"
"Is this thing valuable?" Ye Tian shook his head and took the grinder.
"It's not a question of whether it's valuable or not, it's just that you can't buy it even if you have money. Anyway, just be careful!" Zuo Jiajun saw Ye Tian's unconcerned look and quickly explained a few more words.
"Zuo Sheng, let's find someone else to solve it. It would be a pity if this solution collapses!"
"How about I come? I promise not to hurt any jadeite."
"Let Mr. Qi solve it. He has never failed to solve the problem before."
Based on Ye Tian's performance in cutting stones just now, everyone really didn't believe in Ye Tian's ability to cut stones. They all started shouting as they watched Ye Tian holding a grinder and preparing to cut stones.
The white-haired old man who just spoke also rolled up his sleeves, preparing to wait for Ye Tian to hand over the grinder to him. Unexpectedly, Ye Tian ignored him at all and walked directly to the rough stone with the grinder.
"Brother, you can solve the stone however you want. Do you need your help?"
Ye Tian curled his lips and turned on the power switch of the grinder directly. Without even observing it, he started working on the rough stone with a "click-click" sound.
"Be gentle, don't collapse!"
"Alas, this... this young man is too impatient!"
After seeing Ye Tian's actions, the onlookers were all on tenterhooks. If this was really an unparalleled piece of imperial green jade, and if Ye Tian destroyed it, everyone would probably be thinking of killing him.
Ye Tian seemed not to have heard those words, and the movements of his hands did not slow down at all. After seven or eight minutes, a piece of the grinding wheel was polished.
While Ye Tian was changing the grinding wheel, everyone gathered around again, and they were surprised to find that Ye Tian's wiping stone was very precise. He rubbed it along the edge of the jade, even to the layer of white crystals that wrapped the jade.
There was no damage at all.
"Master, this is called hiding something!"
Ye Tian showed such a unique skill and when he changed the grinding wheel and continued to rub the stone, naturally no one said a word. Everyone held their breath, waiting for the moment when this top-quality jadeite was revealed to the world.
Stone polishing is different from stone cutting. Stone polishing is to use a grinding wheel to remove the surface of the original stone little by little. It is a delicate job. It is usually like extracting jade from a stone the size of a football. It is estimated that a skilled stone polishing master will also use it.
Three to five hours.
Therefore, even Ye Tian, who had very good control over his opponent's strength, had to change seven grinding wheels, and it took him nearly an hour to take out the fist-sized jadeite from the original stone.
At this time, the sky was completely dark, and no one of the people who had eaten all day felt hungry. They all looked at the piece of emerald held by Ye Tian in his palm, turning his entire palm into a piece of green emerald.
The white-haired Mr. Qi took out a magnifying glass and stared at the piece of jade for a long time, and then said with excitement: "Emerald green is a kind of glass. This is the second time I have seen imperial green in my life!"
Mr. Qi is different from the jewelers in the market. His ancestors were specialized in the jade business.
He only entered Hong Kong in the late 1940s. In the following decades, Mr. Qi traveled between Hong Kong and Myanmar and devoted himself to the promotion of jade jewelry. It can be said that Mr. Qi is responsible for the popularity of jade jewelry in Hong Kong.
Indispensable.
So when Mr. Qi judged that the jadeite material was imperial green, no one else had any objections, and they all had looks of envy on their faces.
As for Wen Luanxiong, who gave away the original stone, the expression on his face was even more exciting at this time.
Wen Luanxiong really doesn't care if Ye Tian solves the ordinary top-quality jadeite, but imperial green cannot be bought with money. If he gives it to his confidante, he will definitely win the hearts of beauties.
But in front of so many people, Boss Wen could only knock out his teeth and swallow blood. What he just said was too full, and he couldn't save his face to ask for this jade.
Seeing the people around him staring at the jade in his palm in confusion, Ye Tian looked at Zuo Jiajun and said, "Senior brother, you should tell me what the meaning of this imperial green is!"
This piece of jade is not bad for Ye Tian, but it is only good because it has not been nourished by the auspicious yin and yang qi. Although the quality is good, it is not a magic weapon. It will not have the effect of attracting good luck and avoiding evil when worn by ordinary people.
.
Of course, this kind of jade is easier to absorb the auspicious energy than ordinary jade. Ye Tian plans to carve it into a pendant and place it in a courtyard in the capital to see if he can cultivate a few magical weapons in a few years.
?
"Ye Tian, imperial green, as the name suggests, naturally means the emperor in jade. Imperial green is the green with the best color and the highest value among jadeite..."
Zuo Jiajun smiled bitterly and explained to his lucky junior brother, "Emperor green refers to a unique color. Junior brother, look, the green in this piece of material seems to be dripping out...
"
"How dare this thing be a treasure?!"
After listening to Zuo Jiajun's explanation, Ye Tiantian understood that although imperial green refers to the green color of jade, generally speaking, jadeite that is only green without seeds cannot be called imperial green.
Only jade whose jade quality reaches the glass level and at the same time appears the royal green will be called imperial green.
However, the conditions for the formation of glass species and imperial green are extremely harsh. Just like the set of top-quality jade jewelry owned by the third lady of the Song family, the quality is not up to that of imperial green.
Jadeite has been popular for nearly a hundred years, but the appearance of imperial green is very rare. Every time it appears, it will cause a crazy scramble, and those who get it will carefully preserve it so that it will never be seen on the market. Otherwise, with Wen Luan
Xiong's net worth will not show regret after seeing this piece of jade.
Seeing that Ye Tian still looked a little confused, Zuo Jiajun said: "Ye Tian, whether this thing is made into a ring surface or carved into a pendant, it is a rare treasure in the world. It is not an exaggeration to call it a family heirloom!
"
Before Zuo Jiajun finished speaking, Mr. Qi suddenly said: "Little brother, I wonder if you are willing to transfer this piece of material?"
"Yes, yes, little brother, I will buy you this piece of jade for 20 million, what do you think?"
"Twenty million, is it really difficult for others to take advantage of you? Little brother, I will give you 35 million, can you transfer it to me?"
"I'll pay 50 million, sell it to me!"
The people around had already taken a look at the piece of imperial green material in Ye Tian's palm. Now someone asked, and four or five people immediately quoted their prices, and in the blink of an eye, it reached 50 million.
In fact, even if imperial green jade jewelry appears in the auction house, it may not fetch such a high price.
However, it was rare to see imperial green items being auctioned in the auction house. In addition, Ye Tian's piece was still made of jade, so they could carve it into their favorite jewelry, so the price suddenly shot up.
"Ahem, Brother Ye, how about... I'll pay 80 million, and you can give it to me."
Wen Luanxiong, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly coughed dryly and quoted a price that made everyone in the room shut up.
