"Brother, even if I consider you first, you still need someone else to agree, right?"
Zhuang Rui looked at the circle of jewelry merchants around him, all staring at him with green eyes. They were somewhat similar to the wolves he saw on the grassland. The piece of glass jade just now really stimulated them.
, you know, just cut off a piece of material and give it to them, and polish it into a ring surface, which would cost millions.
These days, for other products, channel is king. Big retailers like Wal-Mart and Carrefour all have their eyes on their foreheads, but in the jewelry store, raw materials come first, whether it is jade, gemstones, or
Diamonds and agate are all sought after by consumers as long as they are non-renewable resources in a short period of time.
The meaning of jewelry is very broad. It can be called jewelry, ranging from top-quality jewelry worth millions or tens of millions of dollars, to small items bought for three to five yuan. Nowadays, men and women basically have one hanging around their necks.
, the profits generated by the jewelry sold in our country alone reach hundreds of billions every year, thus forming a situation of more fish and less water. This is also one of the reasons why all kinds of counterfeit jade jewelry are flooding the market.
.
Although these rough stones are expensive, easily worth tens or millions of euros, as long as you find a piece of good material and carve it into jewelry, you can make money back. If nothing else, it’s the kind of glass that Qin Haoran just polished.
Although the material is only high green and not up to the quality of the top imperial green, it is a piece the size of a bowling ball. If it is carved, it will be worth no less than 100 million RMB.
"Xiao Rui, should you rub the stone first or cut it directly?"
Qin Haoran's excitement has not passed yet. From the looks of it, he seems to want to help Zhuang Rui make a cut.
"Cut directly..."
Zhuang Rui's piece of material is not very big, just over thirty kilograms. It is just a stone egg slightly larger than a football, but the shape is oval, and there is a raised place in the middle, a bit like
It's the forehead of the longevity star. It's very ugly. If it weren't for the black ringworm on the outer shell, no one would think it was a rough jade stone.
Precisely because the quality of this rough stone was so poor, Zhuang Rui actually forgot about it after placing a bid of 185,000 euros. If he hadn't casually written it down in a notebook at that time and Peng Fei discovered it, he might have forgotten it.
This will be the first bid evasion incident in this jade auction.
"Okay, let's get to work..."
Zhuang Rui drew a line with chalk on the wool with a relaxed expression, then threw the chalk on the ground, patted the powder on his hand, turned around and held the handle of the stone cutter.
When the huge gear with a diameter of more than 60 centimeters on the stone cutting machine started to rotate, everyone in the venue held their breath. You must know that stone cutting is the most exciting thing. One knife will lead to life and one will die. The moment of life and death is only in that short time.
within a few minutes.
"Kaka...kaka..."
After the alloy gear made slight contact with the convex part of the original stone, the alloy gear perfectly demonstrated what it means to cut tofu with a knife. The huge cutting force generated by the rapid rotation easily caused the gear piece to sink into the original stone.
Zhuang Rui's hands were pressed on the handle of the stone cutter at this moment, and he exerted downward force steadily. In just over a minute, the oval-shaped piece of wool had been separated from the middle, like a gourd being divided into two halves.
generally.
"Going green?"
"It seems, I didn't see clearly..."
"Hurry up, get some water and wash it off..."
After the gourd-like wool was separated from it, it could no longer be fixed on the stone cutter and fell to the ground. However, this was not a cement floor, so I was not afraid that the jade inside would be broken. There were sharp-eyed people in the crowd.
I have seen that there seems to be a touch of green in the middle of the wool falling from the air.
Before Zhuang Rui could pick up the wool, four or five people rushed forward and put the two pieces of wool cut side up on the shelf next to him. Someone also brought water and poured it on them.
On the cut surface.
Originally, what could be seen was just a piece of green the size of a baby's palm. However, after the powder on the cut surface was washed away by clean water, everyone could clearly see that the area of the jadeite on the cut surfaces of the two and a half pieces of rough stone had changed from a child's palm to a piece of green.
It is as big as an adult's palm. The water droplets that have not yet been wiped off fall on the green jade and are illuminated by the sun, like dew on green leaves in the morning, crystal clear.
"The bet will go up, it will go up big..."
"Firecrackers, where are the firecrackers?"
"Grandma, I remember I also placed a loose bid on this piece of material. Why didn't I win?"
"Come on, who wouldn't think twice about it after the fact? Why don't we ask the boss what the price is?"
With the appearance of Shi Zhongyu, the crowd became noisy. Although many people were far away and could not see clearly what the planting water was like, but with the moving green color, it must not be bad, for a piece of shell to look so ugly
In terms of woolen materials, the bet has definitely gone up, there is no doubt about it.
"I said, Boss Han, what are you doing? Can you keep your hands loose?"
The voice of a jewelry merchant attracted everyone's attention. At this sight, everyone burst into laughter. They dared to express their gratitude to the big boss Han Haowei. At this moment, he was holding half of the wool in his arms in a very ungraceful manner, and using his worthless
The hem of Fei's suit was covered with wool.
"Why are you letting go? I told Brother Zhuang that I want this piece of material..." Han Haowei's behavior at this time did not look like the boss of a big jewelry company. He just refused to let go of the lollipop once he grabbed it.
child.
Boss Han's belly was already quite big, but with half a piece of wool stuffed inside, the shape looked like a pregnant woman about to give birth, and the shape of the fetus was abnormal, which made everyone else laugh.
The man next to him was a little reluctant, and then said: "Boss Han, I didn't say I wouldn't let you buy it. Let's see what kind of material this is first, okay?"
"No! There's still half a piece of material over there. Go and look at it. I promise I won't care. What do you think about my piece of material?"
Fatty Han was acting rogue, but Fatty Han was not afraid. Anyway, he was originally from the market and had used these tricks many times when he first debuted.
Of course, if this kind of behavior is used in Fatty Han's own words, then it is considered to be flexible and flexible. There is nothing to be afraid of if you are shameless. If you have money, you can slap both of us. I think our ancestors used to get into people's crotches.
This allows a man to endure the humiliation of his crotch. After all, he is not a scoundrel, but he has to pay for it.
The others had nothing to do with Fatty Han. He shook his head and could only look at the other half of the material. An old gentleman with gray hair was surrounded by everyone in the middle of the crowd. He was holding a magnifying glass and was observing carefully.
"The color is very positive, does not scatter, is evenly distributed, and is high green. However, this kind of water is a little bit worse. It is not as good as the piece of glass just now. Alas, it is a pity. If the water head of that piece is matched with this piece of water,
A piece of bright green, this is the best imperial green..."
As the old man watched, he shook his head in frustration, as if he felt sorry for Zhuang Rui's failure to solve the imperial green material. The people next to him rolled their eyes, how could these be related?
There are many high-green stones, but if there is no planting water, it is called a stone and cannot be called jade. For a high-quality jadeite, the color of the planting water is indispensable, especially the water head.
People in the industry say that the water of jade is generally divided into three levels, which are the so-called one to three levels of water. However, some jade often has only half water, and simple grading is not enough. Some auction companies divide the water level into ten levels.
, the glass type is 9 to 10 points of water, the ice type is 7 to 8 points of water, the oil type is 6 to 7 points of water, the fine bean type is 5 to 6 points of water, the coarse bean type is 3 to 4 points of water, and dry white
Plant with 1 to 2 parts water.
According to the jade head classification above, you can see that even glass colorless jade is tens of millions of times more expensive than high-green dry white jade. There is no comparison between the two.
sex.
"Mr. Qi, please tell me, what level can this water head reach?"
Everyone noticed the green color, so there was no need to say more, but this kind of water had to be carefully observed and distinguished. Some impatient people immediately asked if this was related to their appearance.
How much does it cost to get it?
I know this old man Zhuang Rui. I heard he is the master of a pawn shop in Macau. This time he was invited by a jewelry store owner to look at the rough stones. Zhuang Rui also met him several times in the rough stone area in the past few days.
After hearing this, Mr. Qi shook his head and said: "Well, the water is as clear and translucent as a frozen river. It is completely natural. It is only slightly worse than glass. It should be called a high-ice material. And look at this section
, it is estimated that half of it can weigh seven or eight pounds, but it is a pity. If the planting water can reach glass planting, then..."
At this time, no one cares about what Old Man Qi is saying anymore. There are not so many "what ifs" in this world. Even this half piece of seven or eight kilograms of high-ice jadeite is enough to make everyone crazy.
You know, as glass-type jade is rare to see in the market, ice-type material is considered to be the top grade among jade jewelry, not to mention high-grade ice-type material. Jewelry carved from this kind of jade is absolutely worthless.
It is an undisputed product, and even if it is sold as a glass type, no one will take it seriously. There are many jewelry stores doing this.
From seven or eight kilograms of whole material, at least five or six pairs of bracelets can be taken out. Even if one pair is worth seven or eight hundred thousand RMB, plus the objects carved from the remaining jade materials, I am afraid its value will be more than eight million RMB, and
With these materials, your own jewelry store will be upgraded to a higher level.
"Boss Zhuang, I'll pay 4 million RMB for this piece of material. What do you think?"
After everyone made some mental calculations, some people started to make quotations.
