"Brother Qing, you've got a jade!" Lin Haitao said in surprise.
Zhu Ye said loudly: "Yes! Brother Qing, congratulations. This stone looks good. At least it has jade. This knife is very crucial."
Zhao Bao said with a smile: "I didn't expect that this stone actually contains a piece of Hetian jade that looks very good in texture. It was so easy to solve it. With this step, the rest will be easier to say."
He Qing smiled and said: "Thanks to everyone, I hope the situation behind will not be too bad."
Of course, he had known the result for a long time, so he felt relatively calm, but despite this, he still felt a sense of surprise. After all, this was his first time betting on Hetian jade, and it was full of freshness.
"It's definitely not bad!" Zhao Bao said with certainty, "Based on my many years of experience, I can cut out a good piece of material from this stone. Xiaohe, how much did you spend to buy it?"
He Qing told Zhao Bao the price of the stone truthfully. After hearing this, Zhao Bao said: "This price is not high at all considering the current situation of the stone. In other words, you have already gambled and made a profit."
The pen. The stones you bought from the market should be made from mountain water materials, the kind of Hetian jade rough stones that are between mountain materials and seed materials. However, everyone is accustomed to treating this kind of stone with an obvious skin as a raw stone.
It’s called seed material, but the price is much lower than real seed material. After all, there is a layer of skin on the surface of the jade, which blocks the jade inside, which is similar to the wool in jadeite.”
"Well, you're right." He Qing nodded in agreement.
"He Qing, this place that was just cut open is white jade, right? Is white jade more valuable?" At this moment, Suning, who had been quietly following He Qing and accompanying him in stone gambling, asked curiously
road.
"Yes. It's Hetian Baiyu." He Qing replied, "But it's hard to say the value. The key is to look at the foundation."
The piece of jade he just cut into clearly belongs to Hetian white jade. Judging from the cut surface, the jade quality is good, but the specific situation needs further investigation.
In fact, He Qing already understood the situation of the current piece of Hetian jade. It was indeed a good piece of jade, but it was still far from the top variety of mutton-fat white jade in Hetian white jade.
"Generally speaking, the white jade in Hetian jade is more expensive." Zhao Bao said, "In the eyes of laymen, Hetian jade is actually the same as white jade, because most of the Hetian jade on the market is white, but in fact
In addition to white jade, Hetian jade also has many other jade colors. There is even black jade, which is a very good jade if the texture is good, and it is relatively rare."
After He Qing and Zhao Bao discussed for a while about the stone that had just been cut, He Qing was ready to continue cutting the stone. There was nothing to think about, it was just a matter of figuring it out.
"Well, no problem." Zhao Bao nodded without hesitation, and then he ordered the master to continue cutting the stone for He Qing.
Under He Qing's personal instructions, he quickly took action.
Although everyone is very optimistic about that stone and full of hope for it, worries are inevitable. After all, this is a stone solution, and there are too many possibilities. If the jade has too many impurities, it will also be greatly affected.
So the cutting machine started up again. When the machine roared, Lin Haitao and Zhu and the others started to look a little nervous, but He Qingren was calm and confident.
Not long after, the second knife was cut again, and the situation on the cut surface was seen.
"It's good!"
After seeing it clearly, Lin Haitao said happily.
Zhu and Zhao Bao could not help but heave a long sigh of relief. The result did not disappoint them after all. The stone was also filled with jade in the other direction, and the jade quality was as good as the previous one.
"Xiao He, you can rest assured now." Zhao Bao said happily, "Looking at the situation, this stone is really good. Not only does it contain a piece of fine Hetian white jade, but it is also not small. It can probably be taken out.
Here comes a very good piece of processing-grade jade!”
"I hope so." He Qing nodded.
Only jade that can be processed can be considered jade, otherwise it can only be used as ornaments. Of course, the best jade is collection grade, such as the top-quality mutton-fat white jade in the Erdaoqiao Hotan Jade Museum, which is worth hundreds of billions.
, that piece of jade can naturally produce many exquisite jade articles, but the museum will not use them for processing, but only for collection and display.
He Qing asked the master to continue cutting. After about half an hour, the whole stone was almost completely unraveled. What was left was a piece of jade about the size of two fists. However, it had not been polished at all, and the surface was very
It's rough, but no matter what, at least the material for a Hetian white jade bracelet can be taken out from it. It will only be more, not less.
"Xiao He, congratulations, your bet has really gone up!" Zhao Bao said excitedly, "The texture of your jade is exquisite and has no impurities. It is very rare! To tell you the truth, I haven't seen such an eye-opening piece in a long time.
Hetian jade rough stone! I cut a large number of Hetian jade rough stones almost every week, but the materials that are finally cut out are very few that can be processed, and those that reach the level of your stone are even rarer!"
"Really?" General He Qing asked suspiciously, "I have no research on Hetian jade and I don't know how to identify it."
Zhao Bao shook his head and said: "You are being humble. I know you have good taste. Xiao He, you should also know that to identify whether a piece of jade is Hetian jade, you only need to start from two points. One is the warmth and the other is the moistness.
Grease, the warmth and oiliness of Hetian jade are not comparable to other jade. The more obvious these two characteristics are, the better the quality is. Therefore, why the top Hetian jade material is mutton-fat jade, that is because the mutton-fat jade shape
If it condenses into fat, it is extremely oily and very moist.”
"I really don't know, but now I know and I'm learning!" He Qing replied solemnly. Zhao Bao's words indeed allowed him to absorb very professional knowledge of Hetian jade identification. After hearing what the other party said, he
It felt that way, because Zhu gave him a small mutton-fat jade before. As Zhao Bao said, that jade was warm and oily. This characteristic is natural, very natural, and artificial.
It's easy for people to detect abnormalities when they come out.
"Brother Qing. I'm really convinced by you. Why do you bet that Hetian Yu is so powerful?!" Lin Haitao said in surprise.
He Qing shook his head and smiled: "What's so great about me? It's all about luck. As you know, I'm just an amateur when it comes to betting on Hetian jade. This is the first stone I've ever bet on, and I don't have any experience."
"That's why I was even more surprised." Lin Haitao said with a bitter smile.
If he didn't know He Qing's situation very well, he would definitely not believe that the other party was a complete novice, and now he can only attribute the fact that the other party bet such a good piece of Hetian Baiyu to good luck, but it is definitely a human being
The quality is overwhelming, and ordinary good luck cannot bet on such a good piece of jade.
"He Qing. This stone of yours is so beautiful. Can you show it to me for a good look?" Suning suddenly requested.
"Of course, take a look." He Qing nodded and handed the stone to Suning's hand.
Suning held it carefully in his hand and looked at it curiously.
"Xiao He, will these other stones be removed immediately?" Zhao Bao asked.
"Well, cut it right away, cut it all." He Qing responded.
Of course, the stone you got for gambling has to be untied. Anyway, it will be untied sooner or later, so it is better to untie it as soon as possible, otherwise it will be inconvenient to carry the stone around, but it will be much easier and more convenient to turn it into jade.
So He Qing continued to bet on stones. In fact, he was not very optimistic about the remaining stones. They were still much inferior to the Hetian white jade that had already been solved. But after all, there was jade in them, and he would not lose. He would only make a profit.
, it’s just a matter of making more or less.
It didn't take long before all the stones were cut open, and none of them were left empty. Among them were topaz, sapphire, blue and white jade, and white jade. However, this piece of white jade was far inferior to the previous one, with the word "white cotton" on it.
”.
The white cotton on Hotan jade and the white cotton on jade jade are similar in quality. They are both impurities that damage the quality of the jade and affect its beauty.
"It's not bad!" After untying everything, Zhao Bao exclaimed, "Although it's not as good as your first piece of jade, it's good to be able to get the jade out of the stone. Xiaohe, haha, I'm so excited
I can’t believe it, none of these stones came out empty, they all turned out to be jade, it’s really a perfect shot!”
"This is definitely a miracle!" Zhu Ye said in amazement, "I have seen so many people solve stones, but I have never seen that person like you, winning a few bets, and these stones are all in perfect condition.
, it can be processed, which is really not easy!”
Lin Haitao said with a smile: "This result has actually been expected by me. Brother Qing is so secretive and so humble! He is obviously a master, but he still says that he is a newcomer!"
It is indeed not surprising in Lin Haitao's eyes that He Qing can make all the bets go up, because he has always been inseparable from each other. He Qing has created so many miracles along the way that he can't even count them. Compared with some other big players,
Come to think of it, this really doesn't mean anything.
Although there are big differences between Hetian jade gambling stones and jadeite jade gambling stones, their qualities are similar. They both judge the situation inside the jade through the shell. Since He Qing is a master at jade gambling, then he is betting on Hetian jade.
It is actually conceivable that he can perform at such a superb level, but he just acts in a low-key manner and is not ostentatious.
"Luck, it's really luck." He Qing said seriously, "Although these stones are all cut out of jade, they are not very good, so strictly speaking, it is not a gamble, right? I can only say that this batch
If the stone comes from a good place, it will be a good pit."
"Don't be modest." Lin Haitao said, "It will become clear later. Aren't my stones still untied? Those stones and yours were bought at the same place. I don't want to bet.
It's your first piece of jade that's as good as yours, and I'll be very satisfied as long as I can unlock the jade stone."
"It should be about the same." He Qing said.
In fact, he did not see fluorescence from the stones that Lin Haitao bought, at least it was not very obvious. This shows that the result is relatively uncertain, but He Qing was not able to suggest anything at that time.
After talking for a while, they continued to unravel the stone, but only for Lin Haitao.
The result was not good. After all the four or five stones were bet, three of them were shortlisted, and only one or two were of jade quality, and they were of poor quality, making it difficult to put them to use.
"Brother Qing, have you seen it? This is really infuriating!" Lin Haitao said, shaking his head.
He Qing consoled him: "It's not bad. You also won two dollars from your bet. You will bet more and better in the future."
"Don't comfort me." Lin Haitao said, "Betting on stones depends on your eyesight. If you rely on luck, you will lose nine out of ten bets, which is very difficult to win. Brother Qing, we now know that you are betting on Hetian jade.
It’s very impressive. Can you give me some pointers in the future? I also want to bet a few dollars on better Hetian jade and go back.”
"No problem." He Qing nodded in agreement without thinking, and said, "I will try my best to help you if I can!"
Now that he indeed has the secret to not losing in stone gambling, it is no problem to give guidance to Lin Haitao and the others.
"That's great." Lin Haitao said happily.
However, He Qing thought to himself that these stones were nothing, and the main event was yet to come.
