Chapter 138: One sword to heaven and one sword to hell (1)
Most of the people watching the stone cutting in the D exhibition hall are engaged in the jewelry business and are definitely no strangers to gambling on stones. However, today was also an eye-opener. Two pieces of wool that were not optimistic about the jade shop's leading figure, the old man, were actually gambled one after another.
It has risen. Such a situation can generally only be seen in major jadeite public markets.
Of course some people are happy while others are worried. To say that the people with the most complicated moods right now are none other than two people. One is Xu Wei. This guy even mockingly stimulated Liu Chuan to buy the 3,000 yuan piece of wool, but he didn’t.
When I think that I am giving money to others, I feel as if I have drunk coptis water, and I am miserable.
And the other person is naturally the original owner of these woolen materials, Yang Hao. He never expected that the two pieces of woolen materials that were not favored by everyone at home and were almost scraps would actually go up in price. More importantly,
The price he sold it for was equivalent to cabbage price, which made him feel awkward.
Fortunately, the people watching heard that these two pieces of wool came from his booth, and they all entered the booth to select the wool. There were regular jade merchants here, and there were also tourists who wanted to try their luck.
After all, Zhuang Rui and Liu Chuan both bumped into each other just now by luck.
Zhuang Rui's action of wiping the stone is still going on. After Gu Gu came over and took a look, he asked Zhuang Rui to continue wiping down. However, after wiping from the side, what was revealed was not green anymore, but white silk mist.
crystals, which made Gu frowned at the side. The behavior of this piece of wool was really weird. The jade color rubbed out from the cracks was not very good, but when rubbed from the side, it was all white mist. This way
Even the old man has never encountered such a situation.
In fact, Zhuang Rui wanted to cut it open now. He was completely sure that the jade inside would not be harmed at all. However, doing so would be a bit too conspicuous. The first time could be attributed to luck, but the second time it was like this, it was unjustifiable.
"Xiaozhuang, stop, don't wipe anymore, the white mist should seep in very thickly, you can cut it from the side and see what happens inside."
Gu Gu stopped Zhuang Rui from polishing the stones and asked him to start cutting. When he heard that there was another stone cutting, the people who had gone to buy wool gathered around again.
Zhuang Rui didn't want to cut out the jadeite at once. After measuring the distance with his eyes, he cut the wool into two halves. Everyone watching sighed at the same time. Apparently, the cut failed.
"What about wood? My piece of wool is so big, so it should be worth more than yours, right?"
Liu Chuan understood clearly when he rubbed it green, but he kept looking at it in a foggy way. However, when he heard the sighs of everyone, it seemed that his material was not very good, so he quickly pulled Zhuang Rui and asked.
"It's better than mine. I'm talking about gangsters. Don't just watch. Go up and practice your own skills. You bought it for three thousand yuan. You'll feel good no matter what." Zhuang Rui replied angrily.
I don't want to wipe it out myself anymore. The incision is only two or three centimeters away from the jadeite. I might as well let Liu Chuan wipe it out by himself.
"I said to you, brother, if this piece of scrap can turn green, it would be great. You bought it for three thousand yuan, and I paid eight thousand. How about selling it to me?"
While the two were talking, the middle-aged man called Lao Huo looked at the incision carefully, and then said to Zhuang Rui and Liu Chuan.
"Eight thousand, didn't you make five thousand by changing hands? Do you want to sell the wood?"
Liu Chuan was a little undecided. This thing really tests the endurance of the heart. The cut Zhuang Rui made just now made Liu Chuan's heart feel like he was on a roller coaster, rising and falling.
"Just now, this boss wanted 30,000 yuan to buy my piece. Do you want to sell it? You only have this little income, so go clean the stone. At worst, you will treat it as 3,000 yuan and become addicted to it."
Zhuang Rui glared at Liu Chuan angrily. If this guy really paid 8,000 yuan to sell this wool, I guarantee that he would jump into the Qinhuai River in less than ten minutes.
"You have already made more than one million, so of course you can speak lightly. My brother's three thousand yuan didn't come from the strong wind."
Liu Chuan muttered, picked up the grinder, and started polishing the cut surface. This guy was very strong, and he was holding his breath. He cut in three or four centimeters in three or two strokes, but his eyes were not open.
Instead of looking at the cut surface, he looked around.
"Damn, you pig, you're out of luck."
Zhuang Rui kicked Liu Chuan on the butt, kicked Liu Chuan out, and washed the cut surface of the jadeite with clean water. Upon hearing this, Liu Chuan quickly threw away the grinder that was still spinning in his hand, not caring about talking to Zhuang Rui.
Angry, he got up and leaned over.
"You kid can't concentrate on what you do. Take a look for yourself. You scratched a hole in a good piece of jadeite." Zhuang Rui pulled Liu Chuan over and pointed at the cut surface angrily. If he had known this,
Zhuang Rui might as well figure it out himself.
"Brother, don't you know this? Wood, how much do you think my piece of wood is worth?"
Liu Chuan had a silly smile on his face. He had no idea how much money his behavior would cost him just now.
"Ask me, who should I ask? Let your uncle come and take a look." Zhuang Rui pushed Liu Chuan away and made way for the old man.
The window door polished by Liu Chuan was about the size of a palm. After Zhuang Rui cleaned it with water, the entire piece of jadeite revealed the tip of the iceberg. It was as transparent as water and full of green. Zhuang Rui knew that this piece of jadeite was full of green.
The piece I just had was several times larger, and the aura contained in the jadeite was also extremely rich, so it should be of good quality.
"You two boys, let me tell you what's good about you. This luck is... too good."
After playing with the flashlight and magnifying glass for five or six minutes, Gu Gu put down the tool in his hand, looked at Zhuang Rui and the two, and said with emotion.
"Hey, old man, you don't know, I brought this luck to Mu Mu. When we were in primary school, I was always the one picking up money in front, while he followed behind and ate the ashes. Let me just say, the first paragraph
All good things have gone to him. Now it’s my turn. Old man, what do you think of this piece of jade? Is it better than the piece of wood?"
Liu Chuan couldn't wait to squeeze in front of Gu Gu, and after boasting for a while, he asked him about the value of his piece of wool.
"It's better than his one, it's made of ice, and the green color is pure and deep, it should be sun green. Although there are some impurities, it's much better than the egg white one. And what's been wiped out now is only a corner. If it's all taken out, it's better than the one made from egg white."
The one Xiao Rui had before was much bigger. Young man, you can last a lifetime with this piece of jade."
Gu Gu looked at the lucky guy in front of him and spoke with some regret. Many people who have been immersed in stone gambling for their whole life have never found such a quality jade, but this guy just made such a piece of jade like a joke.
This made Gu Gu yearn for the string of Dzi beads in Zhuang Rui's hand even more. He could only attribute it to the good luck that the Dzi beads brought to the two of them.
Since the stone-cutting site was surrounded by security, the jade merchants outside could not observe the piece of wool at close range. Strictly speaking, this was still a piece of rough material. Although it was green, it was only a small amount.
, no one dares to draw conclusions about the performance inside, but what the old man said just now still made the jade merchants outside excited. The best jadeite with bright green color is the raw material for making high-end jewelry.
.
"Let us go in. I'll give you two million RMB. Can you sell it to me?"
"Little brother, I'll offer you 50,000 yuan, what do you think?"
"Six million, I'll pay six million."
The scene went crazy. You know, ice jade is worse than glass jade, but it is also extremely rare, especially the sun green. One ring of such top-quality jade is worth hundreds of thousands, creating a
The second bracelet is worth millions, not to mention what the old man said, this piece of jade is not small. Although they were not able to get close to observe it, these jade merchants have already shouted out the price.
Liu Chuan was stunned at this moment. Just now he was envious of Zhuang Rui's piece of wool for producing jade. Now that it was him, he was a little at a loss. Millions and millions of jade merchants were shouting
When he came out, it seemed like he was shouting out dozens of dollars. Not only Liu Chuan, but also Zhuang Rui saw such a crazy scene for the first time.
"Old man, I...he...is this for sale?"
Liu Chuan ran out of ideas and asked Xiang, who was still observing the old man who was wiping his face.
"Two million, haha, just add a fraction after that."
The old man stood up and asked Liu Chuan to carry the wool to the stone cutter. After observing it for a long time, he had already seen it clearly and basically figured out the direction and distribution of the jadeite inside. This would prepare him to cut out the entire piece of jadeite.
Already.
Following the actions of the old man, the commotion around the crowd gradually calmed down. Whether it was the jade merchants who were interested in buying or the tourists attracted by the tour groups, they all felt that their trip was worthwhile today and held their breath.
, for fear of making a little noise and alerting the old man who was unpacking the stone.
With the ancient and skillful decomposition of the stone, pieces of gravel fell to the ground one after another, and the top-quality jadeite hidden deep in the stone, which had been almost abandoned by the world, gradually revealed its true appearance. The old man completely peeled off the outer skin.
After arriving, they polished it with a grinder. After more than half an hour, a piece of jade slightly smaller than a football and completely emerald green appeared in front of everyone.
"The water head is good, but the distribution of greenery is a bit scattered and not very uniform, but it is commendable. Young man, this is gambling, one knife to heaven and one knife to hell. Just watch and deal with it."
Gu Gu wiped his sweat and handed the piece of jade to Liu Chuan.
"Old man, you haven't said how much it's worth yet." Liu Chuan didn't care about the dust on the surface of the jade. He held it in his arms and asked the old man.
"Don't ask me, ask them."
Liu Chuan followed the direction of the ancient finger and looked at the crowd around him. He couldn't help but shudder. Looking at the eyes of these people, he felt as if he was surrounded by wolves in Tibet.
