Chapter 174 Dead Stones and Living Stones

Li Heng stepped forward and picked it out, and picked out two more stones containing jade in the room, then sat aside and began to eat and drink, waiting for the shopkeeper to finish picking out his own stones.

"Little baby, have you chosen?" Tao Yuhuan watched as Li Heng began to eat and drink by himself. He glanced at the stone Li Heng picked out and frowned tightly: "You little baby, how could you pick such a dead stone?"

I can still look forward to what kind of performance this little doll will have when gambling on stones, but the result is also a big disappointment!
"Dead stone? Is there a saying about life and death for stones?" Li Heng asked puzzled. He had never heard of such a saying before, so he had to ask for advice.

"You are such an idiot. The dead stone is the kind you picked, and there will be no jade in it. How can there be jade hidden in such an early age?" Tao Yuhuan said.

Liu Guangming and Zhang Qiushui leaned forward to take a look, a look of disappointment flashed in their eyes.

Liu Guangming curled his lips and said, "Brother, what's the matter with you, this..." He didn't say any more after that, for fear that it would hurt the self-confidence and self-esteem of this brother Li Heng.

Liu Guangming's mouth is vicious, and many people who have quarreled with him have understood the poison. It must be so angry that he vomits blood, so Liu Guangming shut his mouth when he came here.

"Don't say that, although the dead stone won't be outstanding, it still has a chance to be outstanding. Maybe this little doll has his own ideas." The shopkeeper behind said with a smile.

The shopkeeper said so, but he still didn't believe that such a person could pick anything out.

Although there is a chance that dead stones can come out, most of them do not appear with jade stones, but this little doll is still young and energetic, and it only took a few minutes to pick it out. Could it be that he still wants to gamble on his luck?

The shopkeeper over there was still picking. After repeated comparisons and selections, he finally picked out three stones that were about the same size and had relatively thin skins on the outside.

Tao Yuhuan shook his head when he saw that the stones picked out by the two were completely different.

The stone machine and Master Jieshi had been prepared outside for a long time. As soon as the two men were selected, Master Jieshi and his buddy came in and took out the few stones and started to analyze the stones.

"You just need to split it in the middle for him, it doesn't look like you expected it to look like this." The shopkeeper pointed to one of Li Heng's stones that looked a little better from the mountain.

Li Heng hurriedly stopped the master who was about to do it and said, "Hey, hey, don't. Let me tell you, otherwise this good stone will be wasted."

Master Xie Shi glanced at the shopkeeper, who nodded in agreement, and then asked Li Heng to explain how to explain it.

Li Heng looked at the rock from his own memory, drew a line on the rock and said, "Master, start here first, then switch to the other side, and finally cut the three sides, it's probably almost done."

Master Jie Shi leaned over to take a look, his eyes lit up, he rolled up his sleeves, and started to warm up the machine.

All the young people gathered in a circle and stared at Li Heng's stone, wanting to see what good things could be solved.Tao Yuhuan and the shopkeeper sat aside calmly, very sure that the stones Li Heng picked would not be shipped.

Arriving here, the two old men have already decided that the outcome has been decided.

"This kid is quite courageous, but it's a pity that he is a little reckless." Tao Yuhuan said while drinking tea next to him. "If he is willing to put away his arrogant personality and train for a period of time, he will definitely be an excellent treasure appraiser."

The shopkeeper laughed beside him without saying a word.

At this time, Li Heng's whole attention was focused on the stone. Watching the blade that was turning very fast cut down, he especially hoped to see a little color. error!

"The shopkeeper! It's brilliant!" After the knife was cut, Master Jie Shi was so excited that he almost picked it up.

Tao Yuhuan and the shopkeeper looked at each other, seeing the shock in each other's eyes, they both put down the teacups in their hands and hurried up to have a look.Sure enough, there was an opening in the stone, and a mist of emerald green frost appeared on the cut.

This is definitely a sign of the best jadeite!
The two young people who had no hope looked at Li Heng in surprise.

Tao Yuhuan stood on the edge and looked Li Heng up and down again, thinking: This little kid really has two brushes. Not only is he lucky, he can pick any stone and get a good result, and the process of unraveling the stone is also very simple. It is very clear that a knife will be able to shine, and the jade will not be damaged.

The shopkeeper's heart turned cold when he saw this.

This little doll couldn't be underestimated, and he looked at the ugliest and darkest dead stone again, and hope was ignited in his heart.

Although dead stones will be shipped, the chances of getting top-quality jade are extremely slim. Anyone in the industry will choose relatively safe stones, and they will not choose such stones at all.

Master Jie Shi over there cut the original bit by bit, stood up after a few minutes and shouted: "Shopkeeper, it's increased! This is definitely a huge increase!"

"Ah?" The shopkeeper and Tao Yuhuan came together again.

Tao Yuhuan didn't turn back to look at Li Heng, but just looked at the rough stone and said, "Okay, baby, looking at this green, it's probably emerald. Such a big piece is pretty good."

"Master, hurry up, I really want to see how much this stone can produce!" Liu Guangming urged from the side.

Master Xie Shi explained the stone more carefully, looking at the cutting position Li Heng had told him before, and went down one knife at a time.

After about ten minutes, Master Jie Shi presented the emerald in his hand to everyone.

Under the sunlight, that piece of emerald actually showed the luster of more than three crossing bright lines on the surface!
"It turned out to be a starlight emerald!" Master Jie Shi couldn't help but pause for breath, "Starlight emeralds are very rare in southern Sichuan! Most of the emeralds produced in southern Sichuan are mediocre, but this... ...!"

"What is Starlight Emerald?" Li Heng asked from the side. "I've only heard of emeralds. What exactly is this starlight emerald?"

The shopkeeper was completely drenched by this basin of cold water, and he just felt cold in his heart.

"The so-called star emerald, the surface shows two or more crossing bright lines, we call this emerald star. Each bright band is called a star line, usually two, three and six star lines. It can be called four-ray, six-ray star or twelve-ray star respectively. It is very rare for emerald to have such an optical effect, and it is very difficult to have a star effect or a cat's eye effect with such a stone. Among the emeralds, they are very precious!"
