Li Tianbao looked at the two brothers with new stones, then immediately stood up and took Lin Meiru's hand, whispering: "Can't you save some face for me in front of my new friends! Sit down quickly."
Lin Meiru raised her eyebrows with a smile and said, "Li Tianbao, are you sometimes afraid?"
After Lin Meiru finished speaking, she stopped teasing Li Tianbao and walked next to him. She put the small suitcase in her hand in front of Li Tianbao and said, "Take it, I know you are short of money. Two shops are open, so
I don’t know how you live your life!”
"Okay, I won't let you say it!" Although Li Tianbao was angry, seeing Lin Meiru acting so considerate today, he still asked with a smile: "If you hadn't insisted on fasting Jin Bian, I would have
I got at least tens of millions of gold. Is there any intention for you to be so nice to me today?"
Lin Meiru glared at Li Tianbao and was about to scold her. Li Tianbao was naturally prepared in advance, so he covered her mouth and said, "Okay, I'm just kidding you."
Lin Meiru pulled Li Tianbao's arm away and said, "Okay, you guys have a drink. I'm going to sleep after a long day."
After hearing this, Li Tianbao quickly grabbed Lin Meiru who was about to get up and said, "Wait a minute, I asked you to come here to see something."
After Li Tianbao finished speaking, he placed the colorful stone he took out of the pickle jar in front of Lin Meiru and said, "Help me see what this is?"
Lin Meiru only saw the gem at a glance, her eyes lit up, and she quickly asked Li Tianbao: "Where did you get this thing?"
"Of course I bought it. Could it be that it fell from the sky?" Li Tianbao said.
"How much?" Lin Meiru asked.
"One thousand yuan, my two friends helped me pay for it." Li Tianbao said and smiled at the big man and Fat Dun.
Lin Meiru picked up the stone and looked at it carefully, and then said: "Li Tianbao, how could you be so lucky that you are in such a bad situation?"
After hearing this, Li Tianbao curled his lips and said: "You are still talking about me. If it weren't for you bunch of women, I would have almost caught up with Bill Gates. "Mona Lisa" was brought back to France by Lisa, gold is because of you
I left it all to Zhang Jiaqi’s place to make a golden plaque, how the hell could I become like this?"
After hearing this, Lin Meiru was really moved. He hurriedly said: "Don't talk about that, Xiaobao, you missed it again this time. Do you know what this is?"
"Of course I missed it. I called you here just to test whether you know the quality of this thing?" Li Tianbao naturally didn't want to show his timidity in front of the fat man and the tall brother, so he said that.
Lin Meiru glared at Li Tianbao, but did not expose him, but said: "Have you ever heard of 'Opal'?"
"Opal" Li Tianbao tried hard to recall all the gem names he knew, but he couldn't find those two words. So he raised his head and said: "Of course I know. But my two brothers definitely don't know.
So you’d better introduce them both?”
After hearing this, Lin Meiru stretched out her hand and twisted Li Tianbao's arm hard. Then she whispered: "If you don't show off, will you die?"
Li Tianbao refrained from screaming, but whispered: "Stop pinching me, it hurts me to death."
Lin Meiru let go this time, and then introduced Opal to Li Tianbao. With her introduction, Li Tianbao added another gem variety that he had never heard of before.
The English name of Opal is opal, which means "the beauty of gems combined in one body". People in Shanghai call Opal "Yuehua Stone", and people in Guangdong call it "Shashanyun".
On an "Opal stone", people can see the flame-like brilliance of ruby, the mysterious color spots of amethyst. The emerald is as blue as the ocean. Such beauty is a unique flame. This is a unique gemstone.
, and the colors are natural and beautiful.
In Europe, "Opal" has been discovered as early as the Roman Empire, and the price at that time was extremely high. According to European archives, Noni, the senator of the Senate, had a very beautiful opal stone. He was very fond of it.
Antony, the ruler at the time, asked him to show his love, otherwise he would be exiled. As a result, Noni chose to go into exile instead of dedicating the opal stone to the ruler.
What motivates people to search for opal in such conditions? Why do many people consider opal to be the most beautiful and attractive of all gemstones? The answer lies in the fact that its beauty is unique. Okay
Opal stone produces a flame-like shimmering appearance. This appearance is only found in very few substances, but not in other gemstones. It has aroused people's interest and intoxicated people in ancient times. This reason
The phenomenon of flame-like appearance caused by the diffraction of light is called color change. This is the identification characteristic of opal stone and its main charm as a gemstone.
After Lin Meiru finished speaking, she asked Li Tianbao: "Can you understand what I heard?"
Li Tianbao curled his lips and said: "What's wrong with this? But if I were that Noni, I wouldn't be exiled because of a stone. This is too damn stupid."
After hearing this, Lin Meiru shook her head helplessly and said: "This is how people sometimes treat the things they like. Let alone being exiled, they are not willing to give up something even if they lose their lives."
There are only two things that Li Tianbao is interested in now. The first is whether the piece in his hand is "Opal". The second is that if this thing is "Opal", then it is naturally a question of value.
"Then what's the connection between the "Opal" you mentioned and me?" Li Tianbao asked.
Lin Meiru showed a smile and said: "Yes, the reason why you missed it is because your piece is indeed an 'Opal'."
Li Tianbao had actually guessed the result, but it wasn't until Lin Meiru said it himself that he became happy and asked hurriedly: "How much is this thing worth?"
"I haven't told you the grades of Opal yet, why are you in a hurry?" Lin Meiru looked at Li Tianbao who looked excited and said, "Opal is divided into Debolai Opal, Trembolai Opal and Trembola Opal.
It's the original Opal.
Deborah Opal and Trembolo Opal glue a small amount of very thin real opal onto a black background lining stone, making the opal darker and brighter (imitating very expensive black opal). Buy Deborah
The advantage of Lai Opal and Trembolo Lai Opal is the cheap price. But after all, the quality of original Opal is completely different, and buying original Opal can also be called a long-term investment.
There are also the varieties of original opal, which can basically be divided into four types. 1. Black opal is the royal family among opals. Due to their shape and rarity, the price is usually very stable. Black opal is also the highest quality opal in the world.
moor.
2. As the sister gem of black opal, sparkling opal is little known, but they have the same beautiful color. Because silica is thinly wrapped on the iron ore, the entire opal contains a lot of weight of the iron ore.
, so the price of sparkling opal per carat is cheaper than black opal. Smart businessmen sell sparkling opal in carats, and try to leave a lot of iron ore on the back of the opal to increase the weight when cutting.
.Because it is based on iron ore, gleaming opal is harder than other opals.
3. White Opal has a milk-like embryo body tone, which is relatively ordinary. Such an embryo body tone usually makes the color contrast of Opal less obvious, but I have also seen white Opal with very bright colors.
4. Crystal Opal Crystal Opal The above various opals have translucent or transparent embryonic body tones. If the crystal opal has a beautiful color, it is very expensive, such as "crystal black opal"."
After Lin Meiru finished speaking, Li Tianbao immediately said: "Then you mean my piece is white opal?"
"Yes! It is indeed a piece of white opal." Lin Meiru said with a smile.
After hearing this, Li Tianbao was a little disappointed and said: "The white opal in third place is definitely not worth much. What a waste of joy! This is not a damn thing!"
Lin Meiru patted Li Tianbao on the shoulder, then looked around and said, "Don't underestimate white opal. The conservative price of this piece is worth 1.8 million. Of course you missed it."
After hearing this, Li Tianbao immediately became happy and thought, "One thousand yuan is better than one million. If the price is comparable, it must be simple."
"This thing belongs to me. I bought it just now." After Lin Meiru said this, she picked up the stone and turned around and walked out the door. Li Tianbao hurried out to chase after him, but as soon as he reached the door, he met Xu Feng, the proprietress's wife, and pretended to be his.
"Boss Li, are you chasing that girl?" Xu Feng said charmingly.
Naturally, Li Tianbao couldn't say that Lin Meiru had just taken the opal that was worth one million, so he could only stop and said: "It's okay, it's okay."
After returning to the private room and sitting down, Li Tianbao hurriedly said: "Sister Xu, why is your husband going? Can I see him?"
"He, as I said just now, he is probably still on the street stall now, but he should be back soon." After Xu Feng finished speaking, he hurriedly said: "Hey, by the way, why is Mr. Li looking for that wimp?"
Li Tianbao smiled and said: "Come with me, we have nothing to do to chat. Since we are not here, let's wait for another day." After Li Tianbao finished speaking, he counted the meal money and left Xu Feng 1,500 yuan, which made Xu Feng
Feng was very grateful and sent Li Tianbao and the others out of the house.
After walking out of Xu Feng's small restaurant, Li Tianbao asked Tall Guy and Fatty: "Where are you two going?" Li Tianbao asked.
"Go to the house we rent?" the tall man said.
After hearing this, Li Tianbao said, "Where can I take you back?"
After saying that, Li Tianbao sent the two brothers back to the rental house. After getting off the car, Li Tianbao saw that it was a small hotel on the Fourth Ring Road. Li Tianbao was extremely familiar with this place because he had been there a few months ago.
Stay in the basement of this hotel.
"So you guys live here. If you had come earlier, we might have known each other earlier." Li Tianbao said with some emotion.
"Haha, it's not too late to get to know each other now. If Brother Bao has anything to do in the future, please feel free to speak. We two brothers will absolutely have no obligation to do so." After the eldest brother finished speaking, he and his brother Pang Dun got out of the car and walked towards the hotel.
Li Tianbao remembered something and hurriedly took out 20,000 yuan from his suitcase. After getting off the car, he called the two brothers and then handed the money to the eldest brother and said, "I almost forgot to return the money to you two just now."
