After making the cut, Zhao Bao first saw the jade quality revealed on the cut surface. At that moment, he was so excited that he couldn't help but exclaimed.
Immediately, Lin Haitao and Zhu also noticed, and suddenly they saw a piece of white and delicate jade exposed at the place where they had just been cut.
Zhao Bao and others have such sharp eyesight in identifying Hetian jade. They can tell whether a piece of Hetian jade is good or bad at a glance.
The texture of the jade in front of me is snow-white and moist, which is in sharp contrast with the surrounding stones.
"It's really a piece of jade, and it's still a very good piece of jade!" After taking a closer look, Zhu said excitedly, "If I'm not mistaken, this should be a piece of mutton-fat jade, right?!"
"Muet-fat jade?!" When they heard what he said, Lin Haitao and others couldn't help but widen their eyes. As we all know, mutton-fat jade is the best among Hetian jade. It is the best kind and is a collection grade.
Jade is now very rare in the jade market, and the price is rising steadily. In the past, it was sold by the kilogram, but now it is sold by the gram. The highest price of real mutton-fat jade rough stone can reach tens of thousands per gram.
"Xiao, you are right, this is a typical mutton-fat white jade material!" Zhao Bao nodded vigorously and said, "It is very rare! I have only seen mutton-fat jade seed material, but I have never seen mountain material.
It is very difficult to produce jade of this grade from ordinary mountain materials, so it can be said that this is a miracle, I just can’t believe it!”
He Qing asked with a smile: "Uncle Zhao, do you think there is a piece of mutton-fat jade hidden in this stone?"
"Yes." Zhao Bao carefully touched the jade cut surface and replied solemnly, "Xiao He, look here, how can ordinary Hetian jade be so fine and smooth? Mainly because of the color. It is so white and flawless. It's so smooth.
Like suet!"
"It is definitely yes, there is no doubt about it!" Zhu said firmly, "Brother Qing, there is absolutely no problem with this, it is a piece of mutton-fat jade! Your bet is up, your bet is up greatly!"
He Qing chuckled, shook his head and said, "We don't know yet. We can only determine the final result after everything is cut open."
Zhao Bao said: "This stone is extraordinary. There should be no problem! I really didn't expect that the stone in that place can actually produce top-grade mutton-fat jade material. If this news gets out, then what will happen to the people in that mining area?"
The price of stones will skyrocket!"
He Qing said: "Maybe, but let's not tell anyone."
"Yeah. I won't tell anyone." Zhao Bao promised, "What are we talking about? We are buying stones, not selling them."
Now that the stones he transported yielded a piece of mutton-fat jade, he would naturally become more interested in it. He would continue to buy it later. As long as a piece of mutton-fat jade was found in the stones he shipped, he would only make a profit without losing anything.
.And it could be very profitable.
"Uncle Zhao, that's what you mean." He Qing nodded.
Then he subconsciously took out a beautiful small box from his arms, opened it and took out a jade as small as a diamond, which was the mutton-fat jade that Zhu gave him before.
"Xiao. The mutton-fat jade you gave me is indeed of similar quality to the jade on this cut." He Qing compared the mutton-fat jade with the jade he had won through gambling, and then made a judgment.
Zhu nodded hurriedly and said: "Yes! In fact, you don't need to compare, but the quality of your jade is better, it should be the best kind of mutton-fat jade. The most important thing is that the quality of your stone is
It’s not small. It has great use value! Brother Qing, congratulations, no one could have imagined that there would be such a good result!”
Later, Lin Haitao also expressed congratulations to He Qing. Seeing this situation, they finally felt relieved.
Just now, they were still very nervous about He Qing. They thought that this batch of stones would be a big disappointment, but who knew that the result would be so good. Not only did they get out the jade, but what they cut out was a piece of white jade.
Flawless mutton-fat white jade.
"Xiao He, what should we do next?" Zhao Bao asked, seeking He Qingren's opinion. After all, the stone has undergone a huge turn at this stage, which is extraordinary. Under this situation, it is natural to think carefully.
, it is not advisable to use the knife rashly, otherwise it may damage the jade quality inside the stone.
Also, this is gambling on stones, and there are always risks. Now that the mutton-fat jade has been cut, if you continue to cut it, the risk will be even greater. Although the situation looks good, you are not afraid of ten thousand, just in case.
If something goes wrong, the losses will be heavy. If you are worried about the bad outcome and transfer the stone as a half-gamble stone and transfer the risk to the next owner, you can make a sure profit.
He Qing replied without hesitation: "Uncle Zhao, continue cutting and unravel all the stones until you take out the jade. Your skills are very good, I believe you."
"Now that you've decided, fine, just do as you say." Seeing He Qing's resolute attitude, Zhao Bao didn't say anything more and just nodded in agreement.
He Qing smiled and said: "Actually, the stone is easier to understand now. You see, the jade is very clear and the boundaries are very clear. We can just cut off the stone wrapped on it from the side and it will be almost done."
"Indeed. The white jade and stone are clearly distinct, so it is easier to find the incision. Just follow the veins." Zhao Bao nodded in agreement.
The piece of mutton-fat jade seems to be embedded in the stone. It can be taken out from the middle of the stone. However, this seems easy, but it may not be so simple to do.
This gambling stone is similar to jadeite gambling. Some stones are very good in body and contain fine jade quality. However, when cutting, due to misjudgment or accidental cutting, the original intact parts are damaged.
jade, thus gambling ruin, and this artificial gambling collapse can actually be avoided.
However, in He Qing's eyes, this matter is relatively simple and will not go wrong, because he knows the "future situation" of the stone well and can easily master the "path" of cutting.
After agreeing, He Qing and the others started cutting the huge stone.
The two masters followed He Qing's instructions and worked carefully. Before long, they made several cuts from the side. What they cut were all stones, without any jade.
"Xiao He, this piece of jade is not small. It is estimated that a larger piece of jade can be taken out." After cutting a few more times, Zhao Bao made a judgment.
He Qing nodded and said, "I hope so."
Lin Haitao said happily: "Brother Qing, don't you really want to bet on a piece of mutton-fat jade and use it to make jade articles for yourself? Now you have got it, and it is such a big piece, let alone a small pendant.
I think you can take out several materials for a large jade bracelet, right?"
He Qing smiled and said: "Yes, I just want to bet on a piece of mutton-fat jade. I want to make some bracelets. The bracelets of mutton-fat jade are very beautiful, but there are not many jades of this grade on the market. One jade is difficult to find."
beg."
They discussed the potential mutton-fat jade for a while, and then He Qing called Zhao Bao and the others and told them to cut it down.
Zhao Bao and the others didn't know the specific condition of that piece of jade, but He Qing himself knew very well that the piece of jade was actually not big and could cut a lot of stones.
Now Zhao Bao and the two masters cut it again according to He Qing's request. As time passed by, the stone became thinner and thinner, and it was about to be cut to the end.
"Boss Zhao!"
At this moment, I suddenly heard a high-pitched greeting coming from the door of the warehouse.
The voice calling Zhao Bao sounded familiar, and He Qing quickly recognized that the caller was none other than Boss Zhong, who had been here not long ago.
Boss Zhong was very interested in the newly shipped stones in Zhao Bao's hands. He wanted to take them, but He Qing also wanted them, so Zhao Bao gave them to him instead of selling them to Boss Zhong. Boss Zhong was a little unhappy about this.
, but there is nothing we can do about it. The stone belongs to others, and it is their business to whom they are willing to sell it to.
He Qing and the others never expected that Boss Zhong would come back again and again, but they didn't know if he was coming for the strange stone that He Qing was cutting.
Seeing Boss Zhong and the others coming uninvited, He Qing and Zhao Bao looked at each other in confusion, not knowing what was going on. This was so surprising.
He Qing knew that it was definitely not Zhao Bao and the others who told Boss Zhong about this matter. If Boss Zhong came here after hearing the news, there is only one possibility. It was the news spread by other people in the factory.
There were other workers working around him, so there was no guarantee that none of them knew Boss Zhong.
But since the other party is here, let everything take its course. Anyway, this is not a shameful thing. This is what gambling on stones is like. Some people lose everything and lose everything, while some people create miracles and become rich overnight.
Although He Qing didn't need to become rich overnight in this area, he did make a lot of money.
"Boss Zhong, you...why are you here? What's the matter?" Zhao Bao asked in surprise when Boss Zhong and his assistant approached.
Boss Zhong chuckled and said loudly: "I'm here to see Brother He gamble on stones. Brother He, have you finished gambling with stones?"
"Well, that's almost it." He Qing nodded and replied calmly.
"Oh, what a jade!"
Boss Zhong glanced at the stone that was being cut on the cutting machine. When he saw it, his face changed drastically and his eyes widened.
He immediately pounced on it like a hungry wolf seeing delicious food, and inspected it carefully. He praised it while looking at it, and said in surprise: "Hey, brother, this is incredible! This is mutton-fat jade! I bet so many stones.
But I have never cut out such a beautiful piece of jade! I really admire you!"
He looked at it over and over again, and couldn't help but gently touch the exposed jade, as if what was before his eyes was a rare treasure.
"Well, thanks to everyone, this piece of jade I just gambled on is not bad, but it's a pity that the other pieces have failed." He Qing said.
"This piece is enough, completely enough!" Boss Zhong said very excitedly, "Brother He, I would like to take the liberty to ask, do you plan to unravel all this stone? If you think there is a risk, you can give it to me now.
I, leave it to me to continue gambling. As for the price you want, I will never let you suffer a loss. Didn’t I say before that I was willing to pay twice the original price of these stones? Now I will give you four times - what about five times?
Sample?!"
