When Qiao Meng is about to speak, press the red button on the booth again to start, and the twelve auditors will also receive a prompt.
The information about this treasure was in the hands of Inspector No. 5, and a message came from the headset he was wearing: "No. 1 Qiao Meng is about to give a report, please check carefully."
Relying on the power of his treasure appraisal ability, Qiao Meng began his precise description: "This is an extremely authentic cat's eye stone, chrysoberyl cat's eye stone. It can be said to be an extremely rare cat's eye stone variety. It ranks among jewelry and jade."
The status in the market is very high, especially those with more than five cards and high quality, which can basically be worth hundreds of millions."
When he said this, Auditor No. 5 nodded in recognition of Qiao Meng's ability, because such gems are rarely seen in China.
So let alone identifying what it is, most people may not even know it is a treasure and think it is just a pretty stone decoration.
From here, he felt that Qiao Meng's knowledge was really broad, and he was so clear about such things. Listening to his explanation, he seemed to know other varieties of cat's eye, which he had to admire.
Auditor No. 5 is now an uncle in his thirties. When he was Qiao Meng's age, he was not able to understand such a treasure as cat's eye stone. When he was tested for the first time, he thought it was the kind of bullet he played when he was a child.
When the beads were brought out, it was his.
Qiao Meng then continued his narration: "Cat's eye stones are usually yellow, green-yellow, and gray. The most precious colors are honey yellow with milky white, and the one on my hand is the most precious.
A kind of color system, the impurities in it are extremely fine, like needle-like objects arranged in parallel in a regular manner."
In fact, cat's eye describes a silver-white moving light, coupled with the reflective effect of needle-shaped objects, resulting in the cat's eye effect.
However, in order to form such a phenomenon, the stone must be cut into a round arch shape, which is similar to an egg face. The stone must be cut and polished, and a strong and concentrated light source can illuminate it from top to bottom, and the effect will be the most wonderful.
, it can be said that the one in Qiao Meng’s hand deserves to be praised as perfect in every aspect.
However, the cat-eye effect actually exists in many gemstones, but not all cat-eye effect gemstones have the same status and value. For example, some cheap gemstones cannot be called even if they have such a cat-eye effect.
Cat's eyes are just a similar phenomenon.
According to national standards, only chrysoberyl that has the cat's eye effect can be called cat's eye.
This kind of chrysoberyl mineral is broken into aluminum oxide. The original mineral crystals are often plate-shaped and short columnar crystals. They belong to the orthorhombic crystal system, with a refractive index of 1.745-1.755 and a density of 1.745-1.755.
The very high ones can reach 3.76g/cm3, and the hardness is actually very good, reaching 8-8.5. The cause of its color is also quite special, because the chrysoberyl mineral contains F ions.
The performance of this cat's eye efficiency also has its own merits. Some are very obvious, while others can only see a trace of performance. There is a reason for this, and the more obvious the efficiency, the higher the value.
The reason is that there is a difference in the refractive index between chlorite and rutile. The refractive index of rutile is 2.60-2.90. This difference is quite big, which means that the incident light is reflected through the rutile inclusion and then reflected out.
This is how cat eyes appeared.
And the more opaque the chrysoberyl, and the denser the rutile filamentous inclusions, the more obvious the cat's-eye effect will be. This one in Qiao Meng's hand has excellent performance.
When looking at a real cat's eye gem from a certain angle when light is transmitted through it, half of the cat's eye will appear yellow to the light, and the other half will appear milky white.
When two light rays hit the cat's eye at the same time and the gemstone is rotated back and forth with the direction of the filamentous inclusion as the axis, you can see that the cat's eye line is open for a while and closed again for a while.
But now Qiao Meng doesn't have any props that can control the light. If he has two flashlights, he can clearly see such a strange and wonderful phenomenon.
But the correct appearance of these characteristics is enough to confirm that the one in Qiao Meng's hand is the cat's eye stone.
Finally, Qiao Meng revealed the value of this opal: "I think its market value is more than 400 million."
"Okay, that's great! He's a genius boy, and his knowledge is so vast that it's unimaginable."
After listening to Qiao Meng's story, Auditor No. 5 shouted excitedly, and then the other auditors were startled. They all looked at him with doubts, and Auditor No. 5 could only offer an embarrassed smile.
Express apology.
Qiao Meng didn't make any mistakes, so No. 5 pressed the pass button. Then Qiao Meng heard a prompt from the booth in front of him: "Please put the treasure back to its original place, and you can pass the test immediately."
Although he was very reluctant to part with it, he looked at the cat's eye stone in his hand, but after all, it was not outside now, so he had to put it back. Soon the transparent door on the side disappeared downwards, and Qiao Meng quickly passed the corner.
Come to another road.
At this time, he discovered that if he walked forward, there would be three forks in the road, so which one to take became a big problem. If he walked randomly, he would probably end up drifting away.
So he planned to call his teammates now to get a rough idea of their location. When he first came in, he could see a booth on the ground with the general directions of southeast, northwest, and it disappeared after the game started. I don’t know if it was
Everyone noticed this detail.
Based on insurance, Qiao Meng chose to communicate with No. 8 Xiaoqi first to see where her initial location was.
He broadcast the number eight on the communicator in his hand, and after a while the connection was connected. Xiao Qi over there had just passed a fork in the road and entered the next intersection, and saw the number 1 displayed on the communicator.
She became a little nervous when the call was connected, but she still pressed the connect button first: "Hey, is this...number 1?"
"Yes, I am number one. You can also call me by my name Qiao Meng, but let's get down to business now. Do you know where you are now?" Qiao Meng asked.
Xiao Qi felt a little confused: "Don't you know where you are now? We are all in the maze now."
Hearing this answer, Qiao Meng was a little dumbfounded: "No, I mean, do you know the general direction you are in first, for example, which direction is southeast, northwest, I started in the south direction."
"Oh, so that's what you're asking. I noticed that the place where I started is written with the word "southeast", so we shouldn't be very far away." Xiaoqi finally realized what he was doing and replied.
After receiving the answer, Qiao Meng did not say anything else to Xiao Qi immediately. Instead, he pondered the hidden information in his mind.
He kept murmuring: "I didn't expect that there is such a distribution as the southeast. If so, wouldn't it mean that it is divided into eight directions, which means that this maze is likely to be octagonal or circular."
Xiao Qi on the other end of the communicator did not hear Qiao Meng's reply for a long time, but heard him talking to himself on the phone about the octagon, so he asked: "Qiao Meng, did you find anything?"
information?"
"clever!"
Qiao Meng was excited, so the volume suddenly increased, which scared Xiao Qi.
Then he quickly apologized and explained: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it. I did infer that the maze may be octagonal or circular because of your prompts."
"So that means we re-recall the direction we faced when we appeared in this place, and then simulate the outline of the maze in our minds, so that we can converge in one direction, and then meet in the middle."
"Yes, this method is really useful. I should be able to remember where the previous direction was." Xiao Qi said excitedly.
"It doesn't matter if you can't remember. The worst we can do is go back and start over. Anyway, having the right direction is the last word. Otherwise, it won't help if you just wander around. You should contact other teammates first to explain the reason." Qiao Meng
said.
Xiao Qi naturally agreed to Qiao Meng's instructions: "Yes, I understand."
In fact, she was thinking in her mind at this time: "This Qiao Meng is indeed very smart, and not only is he knowledgeable, but he is also good-looking. I feel very comfortable listening to him speak seriously. Maybe what Xiaolan said is not bad after all."
Qiao Meng didn't know that when he was concentrating on trying to break this pattern, he had already been targeted by the girl Xiaoqi. Soon he would have another confidante. He didn't know if he could withstand the three of Ge Yuling.
pressure.
However, he actually admires Xiao Qi in his heart. From the first day when he came in and saw Chen Dingziruo when he was appraising treasures, his somewhat unfeminine strength really attracted him.
Female treasure appraisers were originally relatively scarce in the treasure appraising world, and there were even fewer women with outstanding abilities and outstanding looks like Xiao Qi. How could he not pay attention to her.
Now that he had the exact plan, Qiao Meng began to recall which direction he was facing before. He needed to turn his body to the original direction before deciding which path was more appropriate to take next. If that didn't work, then
Go back, this method is currently the most reliable anyway.
Xiaoqi also contacted other members of the team according to his instructions, and the feedback she received did not disappoint her. Everyone noticed the general direction of their location, and were willing to follow Qiao Meng's instructions and follow him step by step to destroy.
This maze game.
After he confirmed his direction, he used the communicator to ask for Baidu to practice well. He was afraid that Baidu was still wandering around and didn't know what to do, so he simply told him his plan so that he could get out as soon as possible, all by himself.
People naturally need to take care of them.
Bai Du was stunned for a moment when he saw Qiao Meng's request for connection, but still chose to answer it, so he learned about this method and followed Qiao Meng's example and promoted this plan to his teammates.
It has been unanimously recognized. So far, they are the only two teams with a clearer goal. The competition is the speed and accuracy of treasure identification.
