The sound of friction between the saw blade and the stone was heard again, followed by sighs from the onlookers.
"Collapsed, completely collapsed..."
"Stall No. 18 won't use the stones beside the latrine to trick people, right?"
"What a rip-off! This kind of material is also put up for sale..."
"Look Mao, go back to No. 56 and grab the rocks."
This group of usually sanctimonious jewelry dealers and carving masters were like a group of full-fledged gamblers at the moment. Their adrenaline was stimulated to the extreme by the crazy stones. There were many people grinning and cursing, and even the Internet trendy words were used.
Bai Shengjun, who was watching from a distance, had a livid face, and the onlookers' merciless curses were like slaps of big-eared melon seeds hitting him in the face. Finally, he stamped his feet and left bitterly. Three hearty laughs came from behind.
"Qingzi, I really want to thank you very much this time. From today on, you are my dear brother. Whatever I have is yours..." As soon as he finished speaking, Tang Guobin interrupted: "Put it down.
! Even those broken stones and coal slag of yours are presented as treasures, Qingzi is my brother, no one can take it away."
Xu Qing touched her nose and said with a bad smile: "Yes, you two are my brothers. Who will pay for the dinner later?"
Tang Guobin and Meng Shicheng pointed at someone's nose and said, "You kid!"
Xu Qing shook his head and sighed: "You are not kind to others! Even acquaintances are like this!"
Tang Guobin said happily: "I have heard of cheating, but this is my first time. You are so talented."
Half an hour later, a cash check for 300 million was delivered to Stall No. 56. The person who presented the check was a pink girl, no older than ten years old. Along with the check, there was a red velvet bag.
After delivering the brocade box, the little girl skipped away, leaving only a group of old men with wide-eyed eyes.
Meng Shicheng was about to give the cash check to Xu Qing, but the guy waved his hand and said: "I'd better help me deposit this thing into my card. If I accidentally use it in my pocket to wipe my nose or something, it won't be good."
.”
"Damn it, use the cash check worth 300 million to wipe your nose? Why didn't you use it as toilet paper?" Tang Guobin raised his fist and hit this guy with his fist. Fortunately, he saw that the situation was not going well and got out of the way first.
It was a misfortune of being beaten and drunk.
"Hehe! In fact, Qingzi not only made 300 million this time, but also got a very nice thing." Meng Shicheng put away the check and smiled mysteriously, then reached out and picked up the red velvet brocade box.
Everyone's eyes were immediately attracted. Meng Shicheng slowly opened the brocade box, inside which lay a piece of pure white and warm mutton-fat jade Guanyin pendant. The object was about the size of the belly of a thumb, and there was a red rope tied to the Buddha's light at the top.
At first glance, it looks like a nice little gadget.
Tang Guobin said with a hint of disappointment: "For such a little thing to add 300 million emeralds, that guy is so stupid, don't be stingy."
Meng Shicheng curled his lips disdainfully and said, lifting the red string and carefully looking at this exquisite pendant. Guanyin held the pure bottle in his hand, his eyes were empty, seeming to have a sense of compassion. The most amazing thing is that this small pendant is actually three-dimensional.
Yes, even the jade bottle in Guanyin's hand is full of unique three-dimensionality, especially the willow sticks inserted in the bottle are as slender as silk, and the willow leaves attached to it are clearly distinguishable upon closer inspection.
The careful Meng Shicheng studied it for a long time, and finally a look of ecstasy appeared on his face. He pointed at the rosette under the statue of Guanyin and exclaimed: "Micro-carved zigan jade, hurry up, bring me a magnifying glass."
The staff on the side quickly brought a magnifying glass. Magnifying glasses are a must-have in the stone gambling industry, and there are several in the stall.
Meng Shicheng held the magnifying glass in one hand and the Guanyin pendant in the other. He looked at it intently for a long time before carefully handing the pendant to Xu Qing.
"Brother, it is a great honor for men to wear Guanyin and women to wear Buddha. It is a great honor to have a pendant carved by the Jade God Lu Zigang himself. Keep it well. This is a good thing that is hard to buy even if you have money."
Xu Qing took the pendant and put it on his neck directly. He had no idea about Zigang Jade. He just thought it was a good thing. The pendant itself was used to hang it. Only when the object is put to its fullest use can it be used to its full potential.
value.
"Lao Meng, how much do you think this thing is worth?" Tang Guobin pointed at the Jade Guanyin and said.
Meng Shicheng smiled slightly and said: "There are not many people who know the treasure, and those who are ignorant will not take a hundred yuan."
"Brother Meng, do you mean that I am an ignorant person?" Xu Qing wrinkled his nose and said jokingly.
"Hahaha! You are among the ignorant people favored by the God of Luck." Meng Shicheng laughed loudly and made the most pertinent evaluation of Xu Qing.
"Yes, this boy is extremely lucky. I will ask him to help me choose some stones later." Tang Guobin nodded heavily, acting as if he would chip you if he couldn't pick out a good stone.
A total of 327,000 raw materials were used to extract 355,000 jadeite, and the bet increased by more than a thousand times. This incredible luck made Tang Guobin and others a little jealous. All the raw materials at Stall No. 56 were sold.
All of them were sold out at prices several times higher than the predetermined price. Meng Shicheng was so happy that he couldn't help but quickly ordered someone to close the stalls and replenish a batch of woolen materials for delivery tomorrow.
Taking advantage of the fact that it was still early, a group of five people walked happily to the nearby stone gambling stall. This time, Tang Guobin learned the lesson and called Xu Qing over to ask about a gambling stone, hoping to get some good luck.
, he made up his mind to indulge in the stone gambling addiction today, but the pieces he was interested in didn’t even have any jade hairs in them.
Xu Qing didn't want to see Tang Guobin lose money, so he could only shake his head and whisper that he didn't feel optimistic about it, so that he would give up obediently. He visited ten stalls in a row but didn't find a decent gambling stone.
It can be seen that the probability of jade in wool is surprisingly low.
Chacha——
A familiar sound of cutting reached his ears, which made Tang Guobin, who was in low spirits, excited again. He pointed at the crowd of people watching not far away and shouted: "Someone is cutting the stone, let's go and join in the fun."
After saying that, he ran towards the stone dissolving machine. Xu Qing had no choice but to follow closely behind. The two of them ran to the stone dissecting machine one after another. Fortunately, there were not many people watching, so they easily got together and found
Got a good location to watch.
The person who cut the stone was a short man, and behind him stood a strong old man with gray hair on his temples. He was watching the saw blade fall along the pre-drawn cutting line with a calm expression.
Click!
The black leather shell wool was cut into two, and the short man began to ladle water and pour it down the cut surface. The stone chips and water mixed into a thick gray-white slurry and dripped down. There were only a few green spots on the cut surface. The knife collapsed.
The short man turned his head and glanced behind him. The old man smiled and said, "Make another two cross cuts to see."
A piece of material is cut into three pieces and four parts. If there is no green inside, it is completely broken. Most people will not choose to cut it any more. This piece of material, which weighs at least 200 kilograms, becomes a pile of worthless waste rock.
The short man moved half of the stone to a different position, cut it horizontally and fixed it with an iron clip. He cut it with a click and rinsed it with water. Still only a few scattered green spots were visible. Even if it was taken out, it would not be worth a hundred yuan.
Most people would choose to give up on loose green stones like this. Compared to the hundreds of thousands of black-skinned gambling stones, a hundred dollars is really insignificant.
