"The python pattern is so deep, the material is good, Boss Li has a good eye..."!
Qin Feng looked at the stone carefully and found that in the middle of the stone, there was a long black stripe, like an umbilical cord, surrounding the original stone, with dark brown stripes surrounding it.
This is the so-called python pattern. The darker the color of the python pattern, the stronger the color of the jadeite inside. This piece of material weighs more than thirty kilograms, so it can be regarded as a fine rough stone.
After hearing Qin Feng's words, Li Yonghu laughed and said: "How about it, Boss Qin, do you want to buy it? I can give you a cheaper deal."
Qin Feng continued to look at the rough stone and asked casually: "What's the price?"
"The fixed price is 700,000!" Li Yonghu said: "As long as there is jade in this piece of material, it must be of extremely high quality. Boss Qin will definitely make a profit if he buys it."
"You're guaranteed to make a profit without losing any money?" Qin Feng said in a dumbfounded voice: "Boss Li, what if there's no jade in it? Then I'll lose even my underwear..."
There is a saying in the stone gambling circle: "A knife will make you rich, a knife will make you rich, and a knife will pierce sackcloth." It can make people instantly feel the difference between heaven and hell. Many people who think they have a good eye have fallen into trouble due to this.
Just like Fang Yazhi, he can be regarded as a famous expert in the domestic jade industry, but he was too confident. After spending tens of millions of dollars on stone bets and failed, he even lost his family fortune in the end.
"Hey, Boss Qin, as the saying goes, it's hard to break a jade. This stone gambling is originally a gamble on luck. If your bet goes up, this stone might be worth seven million..."
Li Yonghu worked hard to sell this rough stone to Qin Feng. He bought it in Myanmar for 200,000 yuan. Now that the price has been tripled, it is not too bad.
"Boss Li, this stone of yours is a bet. Seven hundred thousand is too expensive."
Qin Feng shook his head and said: "The risk of gambling is too high. First of all, I have to bet whether jade can be found in it. Secondly, I have to bet on the quality of jade. Spending 700,000 yuan only has a 30% chance. This business is not worthwhile...
…”
"Qin Feng, you are right, this stone is a bit expensive.
Huang Bingyu, who was on the side, was afraid that Qin Feng would get hot-headed, so he bought the rough stone, quickly pulled him in, and said, "Let's take a look at the cheap ones."
Raw jadeite stones do not cost hundreds of thousands per piece as laymen think. In fact, many rough stones are very cheap, ranging from tens to hundreds to tens of thousands, even if they are of good quality.
In Li Yonghu's stall, most of the rough stones placed casually on the ground cost one or two hundred yuan, and the most expensive ones were only more than a thousand. Taking into account the shipping costs brought back from Myanmar, Li Yonghu basically made no money. This is why Li Yonghu
The reason for vigorously promoting the python-patterned rough stone.
"Hey, Boss Qin is doing this business. I've called out the price, but you can still bargain."
Seeing Qin Feng turning around to look at the cheap rough stones after listening to Huang Bingyu's words, Li Yonghu couldn't sit still, grabbed Qin Feng and said: "Boss Qin, how about... can you give me a price?"
This year, the Burmese jadeite public sale will reopen. This also means that the business of domestic jade trading centers like Pingzhou will be booming. Yangmei is not the center of domestic jade trading, so many people in Yangmei are afraid that the goods they buy will be damaged.
Inside the hand.
"Boss Li, we can't raise this price, so let's forget it." Qin Feng waved his hand and still lowered his head to look at the rough stones at his feet.
But the more Qin Feng showed this attitude, the more anxious Li Yonghu shouted: "You can tell me the price, as long as it's suitable, I'll buy it!"
Li Yonghu hoarded a lot of rough stones in the past few years. Only a small part is under the shed, and there are more hidden at home. These rough stones have almost exhausted all his funds.
Hoarding rough stones originally requires patience, but Li Yonghu's eldest son has found a partner and has decided to get married next year, but the wedding room is not ready yet because Li Yonghu has no money.
So Li Yonghu picked two rough stones that performed well and planned to sell them in this transaction. The most important inheritance of Chaoshan people was to sell at a loss. He didn't want to delay his son's wedding because of the house.
"Boss Li, let me take a look at that piece of material again."
Qin Feng did not tell the price, but turned around, picked up the rough stone weighing twenty or thirty kilograms, and carefully looked along the python pattern.
Jade became popular in China at the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Republic of China. It was first because Cixi loved jade. Later, with the third lady of the Song family, jade became truly known to the world.
Therefore, Qimen's method of appreciating jade is not suitable for appraising jade. However, Qin Feng's master created a method of appreciating jade.
As the saying goes, beautiful jade can channel spirits. The ancients believed that good-quality jade has its own spirituality, so Zai spent many years trying to feel the spirituality of jadeite. Not to mention, he actually figured out some ways to do it.
When he carried out the mental method of the sect and entered the state of meditation, he could really sense the spirituality in the jade. The more refined the jade, the greater the fluctuation of the magnetic field.! Qin also learned this kind of meditation, but he
He rarely comes into contact with raw jadeite, and has only tried it once in Shi>. Qin Feng is not too sure about coming to Jiejie to participate in this jade trade fair.
After picking up the jade, Qin Feng took a deep breath. It seemed that his eyes were fixed on the original stone. In fact, Qin Feng was already in a state of mindlessness and entered meditation, trying hard to sense the floating aura between heaven and earth.
What Qin Feng practices is the internal mind method. Anyone who has ever studied boxing knows that this is a method of adjusting the body's functional status through breathing frequency. In fact, it is not as mysterious as the world imagines.
The so-called meditation refers to an ethereal state produced after practicing internal martial arts to a certain extent, just like a senior monk entering samadhi, completely focusing the heart, mind, and spirit on the original beginning.
In this state, Qin Feng could sense through his senses that the world was far more colorful than what he saw with his eyes. The flowers, plants and trees seemed to be alive when they absorbed and released them.
The air, which was originally invisible to the naked eye, seems to be filled with colorful colors, which seems to correspond to the saying that all things have spirits.
The jadeite rough stone, which has always been said to be undetectable by any machine in the world, seems to have undergone some changes in Qin Feng's ethereal state.
Just like the original stone in Qin Feng's hand, a green breath representing life emerged from the original stone. The green atmosphere made Qin Feng feel that his hands were all rendered green.
Within the scope of Qin Feng's meditation, the raw stones under his feet were more or less exuding luster to varying degrees. Of course, these were not seen by Qin Feng with his eyes, but were sensed by extending his thinking.
"Qin Feng, Qin Feng, what's wrong with you? Are you sure?"
While Qin Feng was immersed in meditation, a shouting sound came from his ears. The sound was very hollow, as if coming from the horizon, but it pulled Qin Feng's thinking out of his meditation.
"Ah? Brother Huang, what's wrong?"
Qin Feng's eyes, which seemed to have lost focus just now, began to move, but there was still a look of confusion in his eyes.
"You've been watching this for about ten minutes. Do you like it?"
Qin Feng's behavior just now seemed a bit strange in the eyes of others. He just held the stone and stared at it motionlessly, as if he was appraising the original stone.
"It won't take long to see."
Qin Feng's mind was completely clear at this time, and he smiled and said: "I wanted to see through this stone skin and see if there was any jade inside. I almost saw it, but I was awakened by Brother Huang...
"
Some words, the more truthful they are, the harder it is for people to believe them. As soon as Qin Feng said these words, several people around him suddenly laughed.
Li Yonghu shook his head and said with a smile: "Boss Qin, if you can see through this jade stone, you will definitely become the richest man in the world."
"That's right, if you can have this clairvoyant ability, you don't have to look at the rough stones. It would be great to go directly to the casino." Huang Bingyu also laughed when he heard this.
Everyone thought Qin Feng was joking, but they didn't know that although Qin Feng couldn't see through things, he could sense the trace of aura overflowing from the original stone in a meditative state.
In Qin Feng's view, the different shades of colors covering the surface of the original stone are the aura contained in the jadeite. Qin Feng cannot yet know the relationship between the depth of the color and the quality of the jadeite.
"Okay, no more joking."
Qin Feng put the python pattern rough stone back on the table and said: "Boss Li, to be honest, although I have learned a lot about jade appreciation, this is my first time gambling on stones. This stone of yours
I can't tell for sure, and the price is too high..."
One of the thirty-six strategies in Sun Tzu's Art of War is called Playing Hard to Get, which is also the most commonly used strategy in contemporary shopping malls. Although Qin Feng was very optimistic about the python-patterned rough stone, he rejected the stone with just one mouth.
"Hey, Boss Qin, if the price is high, then it's worth the money. I'm not asking for random prices."
Li Yonghu saw that Qin Feng didn't seem to want to buy his rough stone, so he shook his head and said: "Boss Qin, forget it if you don't want to buy it. Come, let's have tea. If the business is not over, then..."
To be honest, Li Yonghu was still a little disappointed. After all, most of the people who came to trade were neighbors in his village, and many of them knew the price of the rough stone.
That's why Li Yonghu kept an eye on Qin Feng and others, because if this rough stone could be sold, it would be to these jade dealers who traded outside, not to their peers in the village.
"Boss Li, your stall is the first one I've seen..."
Qin Feng turned to look at the rough stones on the ground and said, "Now that I'm here, I still want to try my luck by buying a few stones. I'll pick a few first, and then Boss Li, you can give me a price. How about that?"
