Chapter 319 The highlight of the leak-picking career
"Zi..."
The noise of the stone cutting machine gradually stopped, the protective cover was opened, and a large group of people immediately gathered around.
Seeing the stone cutting here, and the calligraphy and painting warehouse, porcelain warehouse, and miscellaneous warehouse over there, more than a dozen juniors of the Xu family ran over to watch the fun. Although they did not dare to stand in front of Mr. Xu, they still dared to stand behind Mr. Xu. of.
But when they gathered around, Xu Duofu, who had just gone to make tea, couldn't squeeze in.
Xu Duofu is a senior citizen, and the younger generations of the Xu family all call him his seventeenth uncle, that is, his grandfather. He is too embarrassed to separate them and get in there himself.
Fortunately, Xu Zhengfeng had a sharp eye and pushed aside a few juniors from the Xu family to make way for Xu Duofu.
"Isn't it? It's not green?"
When Xu Duofu came over and took a look, he was dumbfounded. There was no green at the incision.
This position was just opposite the window opening. Shen Yu cut a thin layer directly, and there was no green color at all.
Snap!
Xu Duofu felt like he was slapped on the forehead.
"Ouch, Grandpa Wu? Okay, why did you hit me?" Xu Duofu, holding the teapot in one hand and covering his forehead with the other, muttered miserably to Mr. Wu.
Mr. Wu hated the irony and scolded him, "You are the only healthy descendant of the Xu family, but you have known how to eat since you were a child, and you are still fat now. Fatty is fine. Are you a middle-aged person?< /p>
"But you never said that you should learn how to identify jade from Lao Xu. How can this material not be green? Xiao Shen has obviously cut it up."
"It's gone up? No, why has it gone up when there's no green?"
Xu Duofu handed the teapot to Xu Zhengfeng and then illuminated the section with a strong flashlight. With just one look, he almost broke into a smile.
"It's gone up, but it's still a big rise!"
It turns out that the jadeite is not not green, but that it is not completely cut in place. There is still a layer of stone skin less than two millimeters away from the jadeite flesh.
It’s hard to see clearly without a light, but under the bright flashlight, the breathtaking greenery is revealed unstoppably.
The most important thing is that this piece of jade is not cracked.
As long as a piece of ice-grown yellow-yellow jade is not cracked, it will rise sharply!
Moreover, there are still cobweb cracks at the window opening. From cobweb cracks to no cracks, this can no longer be described as a huge increase. Its value is like a rocket.
Shen Yu, who was standing aside, saw Xu Duofu being slapped by Mr. Wu, and couldn't help but secretly smiled bitterly, "Brother, I'm so sorry, I let you get a slap in the face for nothing."
Shen Yu deliberately left two millimeters of stone skin out so that it would not be too shocking.
The jadeite is jadeite and the stone is stone. It is exactly the same and does not even need to be polished. This is really a bit too sensational.
As long as you can show your strength when doing things, Shen Yu will not do anything that is too public.
"This piece of jadeite is planted with high water and is green. How come it looks better than the cobweb-cracked yellow sun-green in the open window? Strange, really strange." Xu Duofu scratched his head in confusion.
"It's nothing strange. This piece of wool is most likely to kill two jade with one stone. The jade here looks even higher than the yellow sun green over there. It can be said that it is full of green, and it is not thicker or lighter at all. Or it may be light at the top and dense at the bottom. If I read it correctly, it should be Zhengyang Green."
"Zhengyang Green? Or is it made from ice? Shen Yu, then I'm going to have sex?"
"Almost, you'll know after polishing it. Maybe it's glass." Shen Yu smiled and closed the protective cover of the stone dissolving machine and pressed the polishing button.
In an instant, the sound of cracking stones rang out again outside the jade warehouse.
……
"What a piece of green and beautiful high jadeite, only one step away from the top jadeite!" Mr. Wu first praised. He has been dealing with jadeite all his life, but large pieces of Zhengyang green jadeite that are close to glass are rare. of.
What is placed in front of everyone is a rectangular piece of jadeite with uniform thickness. The weight of the entire jadeite is about three kilograms, which in jargon is about seven kilograms.
"It's full of greenery and vitality. I haven't cut such good Cui Cui for a long time. Xiao Shen, you are really the lucky star of my Xu family. You actually gave me such a rare bracelet material. If I let these three The old man cut him in half from the middle and lost at least 10 million." This sentence was said by Mr. Xu.
Before Shen Yu could say anything modest, Xiao Zhongying pointed at the jadeite on the wooden table and curled her lips, "Old Xu, bracelets are the most expensive jadeite material, but you can only get five bracelets out of this piece of jadeite. Isn’t it too much to call it bracelet material?
Mr. Xu's face was full of disdain, "Do you think only large pieces of jade are the material for bracelets?
"The material of the bracelet does not depend on the size of the jade material, but on whether the jadeite is cracked, or whether there are big cracks.
"Some jadeite is obviously very big. The jadeite flesh alone weighs twenty to thirty kilograms, and even some weigh forty or fifty kilograms. The planting water is good, and the green color is good, but it is not the material for bracelets. Do you know why?"
Mr. Xu's rhetorical question stopped Xiao Zhongying. He was proficient in antique appraisal, but he was new to stone gambling. Compared to Mr. Xu, Mr. Wu was a jade merchant who had been dealing with jadeite rough for half his life. To put it bluntly, he didn't even get a glimpse of the door.
Mr. Xu was very satisfied with Xiao Zhongying's performance in hiding, "Old Xiao, you don't even know a little bit about jade. Let me explain it to you. The fundamental reason is that once the jade material is cracked, you can't take out the bracelet.< /p>
"And the jade carver who cherishes feathers will not use the knife on a very cracked jade. Even if you give him double money, he will not do it because he is afraid of losing his reputation.
"And reputable merchants will not sell cracked bracelets, because once the bracelet is cracked, it is easy to break. Once the bracelet is broken, customers will definitely come back to look for it. It will have a great impact on the reputation of their store, and even directly destroy a store. reputation.
"But, if there is a crack, you don't necessarily have to make bracelets, pendants, ring faces, safe buckles, Zigang cards, etc. It's the same. It's just a matter of making more or less.
"Xiao Shen is the lucky star of my Xu family. He first saved Duofu's life and then gave me a piece of jade worth thirty million. This cannot but be a reward. Tell me, what do you want?"
Mr. Xu turned to Shen Yu and asked with a smile on his face.
Shen Yu just wanted to refuse, but was stopped by Mr. Wu, "Old Xu, it's wrong for you to ask that. How could Xiao Shen want it? Let me tell you, don't act like this, you You can just give whatever you want, but one thing is that you must give something valuable. Don’t take away the tatters of three melons and two dates, otherwise I won’t be able to afford this person.”
Xiao Zhongying also said, "Yes, if we cut it in half from the middle as we want, it will cost you at least 10 million. It stands to reason that the objects you give can never be less than this amount, but then again, 10 million antiques It won’t be easy for you to take it out for a while, so let’s give Xiao Shen a five-million-dollar item at a half price.”
Mr. Wu and Xiao Zhongying obviously wanted Mr. Xu to bleed, but Mr. Xu didn't care. After thinking about it for a moment, he quickly took off a jade pendant from his waist
This jade pendant is a square pendant, which is the style of the Zigang brand.
Just listen to Mr. Xu slowly explain, "This mutton-fat Yuzigang medal is the proud work of my treasure-picking career. I found it at an antique stall outside Dongjiang Confucius Temple about twenty-three years ago.
"This jade medal is very likely to be a Zigang medal that was truly made by Lu Zigang.
"Xiao Shen, now I'm giving it to you. I hope you can treat it well in the future."
