"This is really a piece of jade!" He Qing affirmed.
Although he has never studied jade, he still has an impression of jade. Wasn't it just an jade bracelet that his sister-in-law Zou Mei gave him to pawn? Not to mention that bracelet, in fact, the store he just introduced from Gu Qing
He estimated that the piece of rough jade that the jade carving factory took back to continue carving was jade jade.
He Qing suddenly remembered. The image records he had seen before told him that the stone was jade dug out of a mountainous area in the southwest. However, he did not expect at first that the original jade stone could look like an ordinary piece at first.
In his opinion, he thought that jadeite and other jade were dug directly from the mines and then processed into various kinds of jade. Little did he know that jadeite would be wrapped in inconspicuous stones and played with people.
The game of "hide and seek".
When he discovered that there was a group of emerald green hidden in the brick that he brought back out of curiosity, He Qing was naturally surprised and happy at that moment. An ugly stone turned into a piece of beautiful jade under his random cutting.
, just like an ugly duckling transformed into a beautiful swan, it is very magical.
"I wonder how much jade is hidden under this." He Qing then thought to himself. He couldn't guess. After all, he had just used a carving knife to cut a small hole in the stone in front of him. Looking at that small hole alone, now
We can only get a glimpse of it, and no one knows what the rest of the uncut parts will look like. It may just be ordinary stone, or it may be pieces of beautiful jade.
He Qing estimated that if the whole stone was wrapped with a flawless jade, it would definitely be worth a lot of money. At least he was sure that he could carve exquisite jade on such a large piece of jade, which would double its price.
Although he wanted to know the answer, He Qing did not immediately use the knife to continue cutting. He was not sure whether he would damage the original intact jadeite inside.
He Qing is just a carver, not a jade-cutting master. He doesn't have any relevant experience. How dare he make a random move? He can only think about it first.
There was no need for He Qing to be anxious. He put down the stone and carving knife and went to turn on the computer to access the Internet. He wanted to check for relevant information.
First of all, He Qing checked a lot of information about jade. By reading this information, he greatly deepened his understanding of jade. Although jade sounds like only two simple words, it contains a wide range of information, red, jade and green.
, Jade not only comes in many colors, but also has a wide variety of textures, with medium to high grades.
"The texture of my jadeite is shiny, relatively transparent, and the color is so green. It should be a piece of very good quality jadeite, right?" He Qing thought to himself, and he used the standard online standards for grading jadeite to identify the piece in his hand.
A piece of jadeite, and the results told him that even if it was not the highest grade, it could still be considered a mid-range grade.
However, he has no idea about the market value of various grades of jadeite. I'm afraid he has to ask an expert. Online searches are inaccurate.
After checking the knowledge about jade, He Qing made another careful inquiry, and then he determined a situation, that is, one way to obtain jade is through deception, relying on eyesight and luck.
This special way of obtaining jade is called "stone gambling" in professional terms.
That's right, it's "stone gambling," a strange and mysterious business.
The reason why jadeite rough stones require gambling is because when the stones are mined, they are often covered with a layer of stone skin of varying thicknesses. Buyers and sellers rely on experience to make transactions. In this process, both parties have a gambling mentality.
It depends on who wins and who loses.
"No wonder that old man treasured this stone like a treasure. The jadeite stone was originally a treasure, hidden deep inside!" After knowing for sure about "gamble on stones", He Qing suddenly thought, because he remembered
Well, this old jadeite was originally kept in the hands of an old man. The old man didn't cut the stone open because he was afraid of losing the bet.
But he never imagined that more than a hundred years later, a young man would get half of his stone by accident and unlock the secret.
Shitou actually won the bet!
At least it's a good start!
He Qing had watched a very famous grassroots comedy movie called "Crazy Stone" before. The piece of jade in the movie was dug out from the toilet of an old jade factory, but He Qing's piece was dug out from the wall.
The same things that were beaten down all appeared in the jade factory.
The jadeite in the movie is priced at 8 million, but I don’t know how much this jadeite is worth.
When he thought about the possibility that the stone in his hand was worth eight million, He Qing couldn't help but feel excited.
However, the movie is an exaggeration, and the details depend on the opinions of experts.
"Let's ask Lin Haitao tomorrow." He Qing thought for a while and said.
After thinking about it, He Qing did not touch the stone anymore. He put it away and planned to go to the "Jianbao Pavilion" tomorrow to find Lin Haitao and ask him to take a look. In this industry, except Gu Qing and Boss Yang, He Qing
I only know a few people such as Lin Haitao and Uncle Long, and Lin Haitao and the others should have a deeper understanding of jade.
Of course, you can also ask Master Lu, whom you just met. He is a jade carver, which may be more suitable. However, since the things were brought back from their jade carving factory, there may be a lot of inconvenience. If they recognize them, it may cause unnecessary trouble.
It will be troublesome unless you untie all the stones and then go to them to ask about the situation.
That night, He Qing tossed and turned and didn't get much sleep because he was always thinking about the price of the jadeite. However, he was still energetic the next day.
After eating the breakfast carefully prepared by Zou Mei, He Qing first called Gu Qing. He had already agreed yesterday that he would help Gu Qing pay off his credit card debt to avoid any trouble.
Soon He Qing contacted Gu Qing, and the two agreed to meet at the bank where Gu Qing owed money. The designated bank was near Antique Street. He Qing arrived soon after taking a taxi, and Gu Qing followed suit.
Came over in a hurry.
After meeting Gu Qing, He Qing transferred 120,000 yuan into Gu Qing's credit card account without saying a word, helping her pay off her debt in one go.
"Gu Qing, I have something to do. You should go back first. If anything happens, I will call you." After the matter was settled, He Qing greeted.
"Well, okay." At this moment, Gu Qing was so moved that she didn't know what to say.
Later, He Qing sent Gu Qing away, while he himself took the stone and walked straight towards the "Jianbaozhai".
When he arrived at "Jianbaozhai", He Qing was surprised. The business in the store might be very good today. There were many people standing there talking to Lin Haitao and the others.
