The years when I was reborn as a giant in the antique world
Chapter 65 Jinjiang Genuine Edition
The incident of "Lingyue Jewelry's collapse of 4.42 million bid kings" attracted everyone's attention. After confirming the collapse of the bid king, the media withdrew contentedly, striving to send the news back to the headquarters as soon as possible, competing with other media for headlines .
After seeing Biao Wang Jieshi, most of the people present also left one after another, planning to have a good rest in the hotel for a night, and leave by plane tomorrow morning.
After so many days of uninterrupted looking at wool and tense bidding, they were all exhausted and needed sleep.
If it weren't for the excitement of Biao Wang's on-site interpretation of the stone, it is estimated that these people would have gone back long ago.
4.42 million standard Wang Jieshi, is there anything more exciting than this?
Yes, but unfortunately they can only miss it.
After the major media outlets and wealthy businessmen who watched the excitement withdrew one after another, there were not many people left at the scene.
This is what Yunzhou wants to see, he doesn't want to be watched like Lingyue jewelry.
After Mr. Xu completed the procedures for picking up the goods, the staff used a small trolley to push five pieces of wool to the Jieshi area, four of which belonged to handed down jewels, and the other was Yunzhou's glass full of green material.
Some jewelers and 'second-hand dealers' are still there, the latter are working on stone interpreters.
These people come to the public market to buy wool to learn about the price difference of emeralds. If they win the bet, they will get rich overnight.
Hongguang Jewelry and several other jewelers are also there.
They either didn't bid much because of the king of the bid, or the rough stones that won the bid were not ideal, so they bought good materials from the "second-hand merchants" here, which happened to form a closed-loop transaction.
Mr. Xu raised his head and glanced. After the public offering ended, Jieshi's business exploded.
There are people on the three calculus machines, so we have to wait first.
The first large-scale stone-cleaning machine is still in the standard king, and it takes several hours for two stone-cleaning masters to solve 224.3 kilograms of wool at the same time.
Now that the bet is broken, it's better to solve it directly, so as to save such a big guy and have to transport it back to continue solving, it is really unnecessary.
Dai Hong sat on the ground without any image and smoked silently, with cigarette butts scattered on the ground at his feet.
His face was gloomy, as if he had aged ten years all of a sudden, and he no longer had the high-spirited appearance of a mature man.
Mr. Xu sighed silently, and he didn't have any thoughts of making troubles in his heart. Instead, he felt a sense of sorrow for the death of a rabbit.
Stone gambling is a very risky industry. If you are not careful, you will fall into a place of eternal doom.
Handed down jewelry must be vigilant at all times, and strive to minimize the risk. Even if you buy semi-clear materials, you must not be greedy, and you will not easily get involved in the standard king worth hundreds of millions.
Otherwise, once the bet fails, the consequences will be unbearable for him and the company.
"The bet is up!"
"Sun waxy green, the color is very good, such a bracelet costs hundreds of thousands."
"Look at this head, at least twenty or thirty colored bracelets can be produced, at least sixty-seven million!"
"Really? I bought this piece of wool for 127 million." The young man said in surprise.
"Hey, that's a huge increase—" The people around gave him a thumbs up with envy.
The owner of the wool is this young man in his 20s, a rich second generation with a small fortune.
He followed his friend to participate in the Burmese market for the first time, and bought two pieces of wool with the idea of giving it a try.As a result, one gamble went down, and the other went up sharply, making a total of more than 500 million yuan. I was so happy that I planned to change to a sports car when I went back.
As for the 23 kilograms of fine waxy sun green jadeite that he gambled on, it was immediately auctioned by Hongguang Jewelry at a high price of 860 million, and it was used as one of the raw materials for mid-range jadeite.
Xia Rong, the person in charge of Hongguang Jewelry, felt rejoiced and annoyed at the same time.
Fortunately, they did not bid for the king of bids, avoiding losses of hundreds of millions; to their annoyance, in order to compete for the king of bids, they did not bid a few more pieces of material in the public market, and had to buy the clear materials that were solved on the spot at a high price.
He hoped that these 'second-hand merchants' could find a few more pieces of good materials, otherwise how would a jewelry store operate without raw materials, and it would be hard for a smart woman to cook without rice.
There is still more than half a year before the next public sale in Myanmar. The domestic public sale in City A was held at the end of last year. To use an inappropriate sentence, Hongguang Jewelry is now poor and only has money left, which needs to be spent urgently. Hundreds of millions of funds!
The young man happily took the check and left. Mr. Xu and the others immediately came to the third stone-dissolving machine and began to dissect the stone.
Xia Rong looked at Handed down Jewelry and his group with complicated eyes, secretly thinking that Jiang is really old and spicy.Now he suspects that the bidding king of the other party is all a cover, and it is used to confuse them. In fact, he has no intention of bidding for the king at all.
Otherwise, how could you win the bid for so many pieces of wool?Where does the other party have so much money?
It seems that Hongguang Jewelry still has a lot to learn.
What Zhou Kuan solved first was a half-mountain and half-water stone with a bamboo shoot leaf shell.
This is a piece of raw material that has not been opened. It is risky, and it is also the piece he is most uncertain about.
The whole piece of wool is a relatively regular quadrilateral, with a diameter of about 24 cm and a weight of [-] to [-] kg.
The shell is yellowish white, like bamboo shoot leaves, thin skin, covered with a layer of oily wax shell, which can penetrate the inside when the light is shining, it belongs to the old material at the mouth of the card.
The characteristic of Huikachangkou is that the wool fur has many cracks and mixed colors, but there are few impurities. Sometimes there will be rare violet or high green, and the germplasm changes greatly.
The surface of the shell of this bamboo shoot leaf is covered with cracks. Some of these cracks only exist in the shell, and some will go deep into the interior, making it difficult to distinguish.
Zhou Kuan lit the light along the husk, and saw the twig-colored bottom in the lower part, and saw the rare and difficult to distinguish spring-colored pine flowers at the bottom.
He and Mr. Xu bid with a dispensable mentality, and the price was set at 282 million, which is not high.
However, perhaps due to the many cracks on the surface of the leather shell and the relationship between ten springs and nine dry seasons, they finally photographed this piece of wool.
Zhou Kuan turned the wool over, rubbed the stone from the part with pine flowers, and after the leather shell was wiped off with the grinding wheel, a rich purple was exposed, with a bright red color, it was actually red and purple!
Looking at the light, the texture of the glutinous seeds has completely melted away. It is no longer the slightly coarse texture of the grains like glutinous rice, but fine and smooth, with no obvious germplasm. Although it cannot reach the ice seeds, But it is much better than ordinary glutinous rice, close to glutinous ice.
"It's rubbed up!"
Zhou Kuan was very excited. Red and purple are the second only color to royal purple. Violet grows in every spring and withering all the time. The water for planting has always been bad, so if it can be colored, it will be very good.
What's more, Nuobing is not a bad kind of water, and it belongs to the middle class.
As the appearance of the emerald was gradually revealed, the rich red and purple caused a commotion in the crowd, and many people gathered around.
"Don't talk about planting water, just the color will win!"
"There are so many cracks on the leather shell, I didn't expect that most of them didn't go in."
"This seems to be the only piece of red and purple on the market, right?"
"You forgot that top-quality Fu Lu Shou three-color jadeite, which is excellent in seed, water, and color! But if you want to talk about single color, this one is indeed the only one."
"Damn, I've seen this bid, the winning bid amount is not high, it's definitely going up—"
"Handed down Jewelry's luck this time is against the sky!"
The other jewelers could only look at Mr. Xu and his party with envious eyes.
This kind of waxy ice red purple jadeite is very popular in the market, and its price is no less than that of ice jadeite. It costs at least a million pieces to make a bracelet, and it is not worried about selling it at all.
The pressure in Zhou Kuan's heart finally eased a lot. Although the material cracked and the color faded, the best part was that at least ten bracelets could be produced. The whole material increased by nearly five times, and the profit exceeded 1000 million. !
"Old Zhou, it's a big rise this time."
Mr. Xu is also in a good mood. Although Zhou Kuan is sometimes impatient, his experience is there, and the betting rate is guaranteed.
Another piece was solved, and this time it was also a small increase.
Mr. Xu had a smile on his face. The two of them were not very optimistic about these materials. As a result, the bets went up one after another, so he had more confidence in the materials in the future.
Xia Rong stood aside and was very greedy. He only received five yuan of material until now.
Even the second-class white-backed green and better-colored bean seeds and oil green seeds were sold at a price 20% higher than other jewelers, but unfortunately these were far from enough.
Especially the high-color jadeite above the ice species has not been produced until now, and it is really impossible to buy it with money.
Hongguang Jewelry is not like handed down jewellery, which only sells mid-to-high-end jadeite. Except for the head office and a few major branches in first-tier cities that are high-end jewelry, other branches have mid-range, mid-to-low-end jewelry, so visitors are welcome.
But he also discovered that it was the high-end jadeite that really made money.
Rich people don't care about the money to buy jewelry. They only care about whether the quality is good, whether the grade is high, whether it is unique, and whether it matches their temperament.
Just like Xu Jiaqing, who spent 3000 million yuan to buy a piece of top-quality ice blue jadeite, which can produce more than a dozen bracelets and five or six sets of jewelry.
But do people care?
Don't care at all.
Maybe someday it will be worn differently, or given as a gift to family members, or placed directly in the villa, which is normal for such rich people.
Alas, it's a pity that there are many good materials on the public market, but there are no bids.
Xia Rong frowned slightly, thinking about how else to obtain high-end jadeite.
If it’s really not possible, please ask the organizing committee to contact the mine owner in Myanmar again to see if the material that has been cut off from the public offer can be bought, but he estimates that the asking price of the mine owner must be very high, and it may not be sold.
Or go to Yushi Street in China, alas, that's the only way.
At this moment, he saw the handed down jeweller, the Shijieshi master, take another piece of wool. It is not big, and the full green of the incision can be seen in the sun. Isn't this the green material of the glass he bid for?
It is really rare for the glass to be full of green. He discussed with stone betting experts, and when the betting position was slim, he gritted his teeth and took out the remaining funds of more than 2000 million excluding the budget of Biaowang, and invested a price of 2053 million.
I thought the bidding price was high enough, but the opening bid price was 300 million higher than him, reaching 2366 million!
Buying it at such a high price, isn't the handed down jewelry afraid of losing the bet?
"You go to the other two stone-dissolving machines and watch. If you have any good material, just take a picture. I'll go to the handed down jewellery." Xia Rong said to the assistant and stone betting expert.
"Okay, Mr. Xia."
"Xiaozhou, is this the material you won the bid for?"
Mr. Xu looked at the woolen material for a while. Although the leather shell is cracked and the size is small, the cut surface has reached the level of glass seed that is close to full green, second only to imperial green. This kind of material is worth tens of millions at first glance.
Yes, the winning bid price at that time seemed to be more than 2300 million.
He glanced at the young man in surprise, he didn't expect that he would spend a lot of money to buy such a small piece of wool, if he couldn't produce a bracelet full of colors and greens, he might not be able to get back his money.
"Yes, Grandpa Xu, this is the first time I have spent so much money on a piece of wool."
Yun Zhou raised his brows, his clear eyes were full of stars, he was amazingly beautiful, and his voice was also smiling, "I just feel that my assets are much more abundant than before, and I want to bring a gift to my family."
"Well, I believe they will be very happy to receive it." Mr. Xu smiled, since it's not for commercial use, it doesn't matter, and it doesn't matter if it's a loss.
Zhou Kuan took the piece of wool from Mr. Xu.
As soon as he got his hands on it, he knew that this piece of material was definitely an old material, and the surface was already in a state of half-cast sand, and the jade flesh could be faintly seen.
A two-centimeter incision has been cut on the left side of the wool. The color of the cut piece is relatively light, and at most a light-colored glass pendant will be produced.
The other piece is about the size of two adults' fists, and it is in the shape of a triangle with narrow sides and a bulging middle, with green python bands and two band-shaped pine flowers on the surface, which is very good.
The incision is rich in green, transitioning from sunny green at the edge to almost full green. The color is bright and full. It can be said that it is the most beautiful color except imperial green.
However, two obvious small cracks can be seen in the jade meat, which split the cut surface. If it goes deep, the value may be greatly reduced.
Zhou Kuan turned on the light and looked at it for a while, then said to Yunzhou, "I'll first rub along the skin of the incision to see how deep the cracks are."
Such a good material must be wiped off the leather shell before looking at it.
"Okay." Yunzhou nodded. He was actually curious about how the glass species turned into the dragonstone species.
Only then did the people standing around realize that this rare piece of glass covered with green material actually belonged to this young man, and why did this young man look so familiar——
By the way, isn't this the young billionaire? !
Suddenly, all eyes were on Yunzhou's face, and their eyes were full of envy.
This young man's luck is absolutely incredible. I don't know if this good luck will last?
After thinking of this, they couldn't help but become more interested in this piece of material, and the crowd quickly surrounded them. Although there were many fewer people than before, the formation was no worse than the first night.
Xia Rong also scanned Yun Zhou's clean and beautiful side face with scrutiny. Could it be... that this material can really produce a full-color bracelet?
Then he felt that he believed too much in the other party's luck. The stone gambling experts had already figured out how low the probability was, and it was almost impossible.
Zhou Kuan changed into the smallest and thinnest grinding wheel, and began to rub the stone along the leather shell at the incision, rubbing back and forth.
The sound of rustling kept ringing, and he stopped from time to time to look at the extent of the friction of the leather shell, and washed away the debris on the surface with water, being extra careful, lest the jade flesh inside be scratched.
The fur shell is very thin, but it still took more than ten minutes to wipe out the thickness of two fingers' width under such cautious movements.
He washed away the last debris with water, and turned on the light to see that the crack had penetrated deep into the interior.
"Oh, it didn't rub off."
"Millions are gone!"
"Look at this, this part can't get out of the ring."
"I was a little nervous when I saw a small strand. The cut surface itself is not big and has cracks. It's really not good to gamble—"
People were talking in low voices, Mr. Xu was planning to comfort Yun Zhou, but he saw that the other party looked calm and in a very good mood, how could he look a little discouraged?
"Uncle Zhou, it's okay, you can continue to explain." The young man's crisp voice sounded like a clear spring, which makes people feel extraordinarily cool on a hot day.
Zhou Kuan nodded, and wiped another two centimeters in. After rinsing it off, he suddenly let out a 'huh', and saw a layer of mist appearing on the edge of the exposed emerald.
The fog layer usually refers to a layer of material between the leather shell and the jade flesh. The wool with the fog layer is from the outside to the inside, followed by the leather shell, the fog layer, and the jadeite.
The leather shell is equivalent to the coat, and the mist layer is the underwear, which tightly wraps the jadeite.
But the fog layer of this piece of wool is inside the emerald. This kind of situation is very rare, and he has never seen it much.
"...When you get out of the fog layer, cut a knife along the fog layer first, what do you think?"
Yun Zhou naturally had no objection, he vaguely felt that the dragon stone species was about to appear, perhaps just behind the fog layer.
This cutting still uses a wire cutting machine, and the small wool is fixed on the disc of the wire cutting machine, and the 0.1 mm thin wire passes through the fog layer, leaving a smooth and flat cut surface.
On the left side of the cut surface is glass-like jadeite that is nearly full of green, accounting for about one-fifth of the whole piece of wool. However, there are cracks inside, and the ring surface and pendant cannot be made. It can only be ground beads, and at least 400 million pieces have been cut.
On the other side, there was a white fog, which was very thin, but it was impossible to see through the fog layer.
"Strange, why is it foggy?"
"Is there another kind of water behind the fog layer? It must be inferior to the glass kind."
"It's the first time I've encountered this situation."
It was the first time for many people to see the fog layer inside the emerald, and they all stretched their necks to look inside.
The sound of the grinding wheel sounded again, and when the thin layer of fog was removed, the clear and flawless emerald was finally revealed.
Its texture is more transparent than glass, delicate and moist, smooth like silk, pure to the extreme, as moist as spring water is about to flow out, with a cold and cold breath.
The full green color is completely melted in the water-like texture, uniform and full, green everywhere, emerald green.
It's like a drop of strong emerald color dripping into the water, it melts instantly, and finally merges into one, without any color patches and color roots, as if green is not produced by the diffusion of chromium ions, but exists in such a clear species. In the water, species and color are completely combined, perfect!
"It's still full of green glass, right? But the cracks and cotton seem to be gone."
"It should be, but this green color is so clear and beautiful, it has a... indescribable feeling."
"The water head is too full, and the fluorescence is also strong. It can be called the best of the glass species!"
"This time it must have risen—"
Everyone was very excited, but they didn't notice anything. After all, the dragon stone species only exists in the legendary water. I'm afraid few people present have seen it, and they don't think about it for a while.
However, Zhou Kuan is the one closest to this jadeite.
He touched the face that exuded the cold air, and looked at the color that could not see the roots and patches of color even with the lights on, and there was a faint guess in his heart, which made his eyes tinged with shock.
He has been betting on stones for more than 20 years and has seen so many emeralds. What impressed him the most was a pendant he saw at a top jewelry auction six or seven years ago.
The pendant is carved with a Buddha in relief. When you touch it with your hand, there is a cold air coming out of it, and no particles can be seen so delicately.
The head of the water is absolutely amazing. Putting your fingers on the back can completely show it. There is no cotton and no variegated colors. The only pity is that the green is light and not strong. Not to mention compared with full green and sun green, even seedling green is not up to it. , very light, very light, but a high price of 1500 million!
One can imagine how surprised he was at the time.
This is just a pendant, not a ring or a bracelet. Such a high price is really rare. Only after he asked the staff did he know that it was a dragon stone jadeite.
The dragonstone jadeite that is more precious than glass jadeite, which has only been heard of by its name but has never been seen before!
Only once, and he never saw it again.Sure enough, like a dragon, it is difficult for ordinary people to see.
But today, he might see him again.
Zhou Kuan restrained his excitement and took several deep breaths before continuing to rub stones.
Four or ten minutes later, when the emerald was completely released, everyone was shocked.
"My God, this is...full, full-colored, full-green emerald!" Someone stammered.
"No cotton, no cracks, no impurities, colorless roots, no color blocks, no color spots, an old color, strong fluorescence, and even color. Damn, such jadeite actually exists?!"
"Am I dazzled, it's impossible—"
"Even the glass species imperial green can't achieve colorless roots. How can it be done? How is it possible?"
Ordinary jadeite raw stones buried under mines will inevitably have cracks, cotton, and impurities after natural weathering, collision and extrusion, and the intrusion of impurities.
And because the chromium ions diffuse in the gaps to form green, the color will definitely be uneven, and the phenomenon of colored roots is only the difference between obvious and not obvious.
But this piece of jade is completely beyond people's imagination, as if subverting the previous cognition.
"It's possible, because dragon stone jade grows in caves." Old Master Xu's voice was trembling with excitement.
The dragon stone species has been out of production for more than 40 years. I didn't expect to see it here, and it is such a top-quality dragon stone full of green emeralds!
Back then, Handed down Jewelry also had a dragonstone pendant as its treasure, but was forced to sell it due to business reasons.
Even 40 years ago, dragonstone species were rare treasures that could not be found, and it was impossible to redeem them.
"Dragonstone species, oh, so this is the Dragonstone species!"
"I actually saw the legendary jadeite here today. It was a worthwhile trip."
"Sure enough, it is like a dragon coming out of the water. The water head and clarity are rare in my life."
"The first time I saw it, it really opened my eyes."
Amidst all kinds of voices of exclamation and praise, Xia Rong of Hongguang Jewelry was completely stunned, and endless regrets flooded him like sea water.
Dragonstone species, as a jeweler, he certainly knows this top-level jadeite. Judging from various characteristics, he can confirm that this is the real dragonstone species!
He regretted why he didn't spend a few million more to get this piece of wool.
This is even more precious than the glass species, the jade that is not seen at all now, speaking of being unique, what else could be more unique than it?
Maybe there is only such a piece in the whole world!
But it's no use regretting it now, if you buy it, you have to buy it.
Like him, all the jewelers came after hearing the news, and even Dai Hong, who was full of despair, sat up from the ground and rushed over here.
At this time, someone asked about the price, and Yun Zhou also looked at Mr. Xu curiously. Although he didn't intend to sell it, he wanted to know the market price.
Mr. Xu said in a hoarse voice, "This is gem-level jadeite, which cannot be calculated by ordinary jadeite, but by grams.
The auction price of Longshi light-colored jadeite is about 25 one gram, excluding carving and loss, it is about 10 per gram.but--"
Mr. Xu changed the subject, "This is full green jadeite, and it can produce a full green bracelet, beads, generous cards and at least 3-5 large rings. Therefore, its value, the most conservative estimate, is Each gram is more than 50!””
He put the emerald, which was a little bigger than an adult's fist, on the weighing instrument, and the displayed weight was 1352 grams.
It also means that the value of this piece of jade exceeds 6 million!
After seeing Biao Wang Jieshi, most of the people present also left one after another, planning to have a good rest in the hotel for a night, and leave by plane tomorrow morning.
After so many days of uninterrupted looking at wool and tense bidding, they were all exhausted and needed sleep.
If it weren't for the excitement of Biao Wang's on-site interpretation of the stone, it is estimated that these people would have gone back long ago.
4.42 million standard Wang Jieshi, is there anything more exciting than this?
Yes, but unfortunately they can only miss it.

This is what Yunzhou wants to see, he doesn't want to be watched like Lingyue jewelry.
After Mr. Xu completed the procedures for picking up the goods, the staff used a small trolley to push five pieces of wool to the Jieshi area, four of which belonged to handed down jewels, and the other was Yunzhou's glass full of green material.
Some jewelers and 'second-hand dealers' are still there, the latter are working on stone interpreters.
These people come to the public market to buy wool to learn about the price difference of emeralds. If they win the bet, they will get rich overnight.

Zhou Kuan was very excited. Red and purple are the second only color to royal purple. Violet grows in every spring and withering all the time. The water for planting has always been bad, so if it can be colored, it will be very good.
What's more, Nuobing is not a bad kind of water, and it belongs to the middle class.

"You forgot that top-quality Fu Lu Shou three-color jadeite, which is excellent in seed, water, and color! But if you want to talk about single color, this one is indeed the only one."
"Damn, I've seen this bid, the winning bid amount is not high, it's definitely going up—"
"Handed down Jewelry's luck this time is against the sky!"
The other jewelers could only look at Mr. Xu and his party with envious eyes.
This kind of waxy ice red purple jadeite is very popular in the market, and its price is no less than that of ice jadeite. It costs at least a million pieces to make a bracelet, and it is not worried about selling it at all.
The pressure in Zhou Kuan's heart finally eased a lot. Although the material cracked and the color faded, the best part was that at least ten bracelets could be produced. The whole material increased by nearly five times, and the profit exceeded 1000 million. !
"Old Zhou, it's a big rise this time."
Mr. Xu is also in a good mood. Although Zhou Kuan is sometimes impatient, his experience is there, and the betting rate is guaranteed.
Another piece was solved, and this time it was also a small increase.
Mr. Xu had a smile on his face. The two of them were not very optimistic about these materials. As a result, the bets went up one after another, so he had more confidence in the materials in the future.
Xia Rong stood aside and was very greedy. He only received five yuan of material until now.
Even the second-class white-backed green and better-colored bean seeds and oil green seeds were sold at a price 20% higher than other jewelers, but unfortunately these were far from enough.
Especially the high-color jadeite above the ice species has not been produced until now, and it is really impossible to buy it with money.
Hongguang Jewelry is not like handed down jewellery, which only sells mid-to-high-end jadeite. Except for the head office and a few major branches in first-tier cities that are high-end jewelry, other branches have mid-range, mid-to-low-end jewelry, so visitors are welcome.
But he also discovered that it was the high-end jadeite that really made money.
Rich people don't care about the money to buy jewelry. They only care about whether the quality is good, whether the grade is high, whether it is unique, and whether it matches their temperament.
Just like Xu Jiaqing, who spent 3000 million yuan to buy a piece of top-quality ice blue jadeite, which can produce more than a dozen bracelets and five or six sets of jewelry.
But do people care?
Don't care at all.
Maybe someday it will be worn differently, or given as a gift to family members, or placed directly in the villa, which is normal for such rich people.
Alas, it's a pity that there are many good materials on the public market, but there are no bids.
Xia Rong frowned slightly, thinking about how else to obtain high-end jadeite.
If it’s really not possible, please ask the organizing committee to contact the mine owner in Myanmar again to see if the material that has been cut off from the public offer can be bought, but he estimates that the asking price of the mine owner must be very high, and it may not be sold.
Or go to Yushi Street in China, alas, that's the only way.
At this moment, he saw the handed down jeweller, the Shijieshi master, take another piece of wool. It is not big, and the full green of the incision can be seen in the sun. Isn't this the green material of the glass he bid for?
It is really rare for the glass to be full of green. He discussed with stone betting experts, and when the betting position was slim, he gritted his teeth and took out the remaining funds of more than 2000 million excluding the budget of Biaowang, and invested a price of 2053 million.
I thought the bidding price was high enough, but the opening bid price was 300 million higher than him, reaching 2366 million!
Buying it at such a high price, isn't the handed down jewelry afraid of losing the bet?
"You go to the other two stone-dissolving machines and watch. If you have any good material, just take a picture. I'll go to the handed down jewellery." Xia Rong said to the assistant and stone betting expert.
"Okay, Mr. Xia."
"Xiaozhou, is this the material you won the bid for?"
Mr. Xu looked at the woolen material for a while. Although the leather shell is cracked and the size is small, the cut surface has reached the level of glass seed that is close to full green, second only to imperial green. This kind of material is worth tens of millions at first glance.
Yes, the winning bid price at that time seemed to be more than 2300 million.
He glanced at the young man in surprise, he didn't expect that he would spend a lot of money to buy such a small piece of wool, if he couldn't produce a bracelet full of colors and greens, he might not be able to get back his money.
"Yes, Grandpa Xu, this is the first time I have spent so much money on a piece of wool."
Yun Zhou raised his brows, his clear eyes were full of stars, he was amazingly beautiful, and his voice was also smiling, "I just feel that my assets are much more abundant than before, and I want to bring a gift to my family."
"Well, I believe they will be very happy to receive it." Mr. Xu smiled, since it's not for commercial use, it doesn't matter, and it doesn't matter if it's a loss.
Zhou Kuan took the piece of wool from Mr. Xu.
As soon as he got his hands on it, he knew that this piece of material was definitely an old material, and the surface was already in a state of half-cast sand, and the jade flesh could be faintly seen.
A two-centimeter incision has been cut on the left side of the wool. The color of the cut piece is relatively light, and at most a light-colored glass pendant will be produced.
The other piece is about the size of two adults' fists, and it is in the shape of a triangle with narrow sides and a bulging middle, with green python bands and two band-shaped pine flowers on the surface, which is very good.
The incision is rich in green, transitioning from sunny green at the edge to almost full green. The color is bright and full. It can be said that it is the most beautiful color except imperial green.
However, two obvious small cracks can be seen in the jade meat, which split the cut surface. If it goes deep, the value may be greatly reduced.
Zhou Kuan turned on the light and looked at it for a while, then said to Yunzhou, "I'll first rub along the skin of the incision to see how deep the cracks are."
Such a good material must be wiped off the leather shell before looking at it.
"Okay." Yunzhou nodded. He was actually curious about how the glass species turned into the dragonstone species.
Only then did the people standing around realize that this rare piece of glass covered with green material actually belonged to this young man, and why did this young man look so familiar——
By the way, isn't this the young billionaire? !
Suddenly, all eyes were on Yunzhou's face, and their eyes were full of envy.
This young man's luck is absolutely incredible. I don't know if this good luck will last?
After thinking of this, they couldn't help but become more interested in this piece of material, and the crowd quickly surrounded them. Although there were many fewer people than before, the formation was no worse than the first night.
Xia Rong also scanned Yun Zhou's clean and beautiful side face with scrutiny. Could it be... that this material can really produce a full-color bracelet?
Then he felt that he believed too much in the other party's luck. The stone gambling experts had already figured out how low the probability was, and it was almost impossible.
Zhou Kuan changed into the smallest and thinnest grinding wheel, and began to rub the stone along the leather shell at the incision, rubbing back and forth.
The sound of rustling kept ringing, and he stopped from time to time to look at the extent of the friction of the leather shell, and washed away the debris on the surface with water, being extra careful, lest the jade flesh inside be scratched.
The fur shell is very thin, but it still took more than ten minutes to wipe out the thickness of two fingers' width under such cautious movements.
He washed away the last debris with water, and turned on the light to see that the crack had penetrated deep into the interior.
"Oh, it didn't rub off."
"Millions are gone!"
"Look at this, this part can't get out of the ring."
"I was a little nervous when I saw a small strand. The cut surface itself is not big and has cracks. It's really not good to gamble—"
People were talking in low voices, Mr. Xu was planning to comfort Yun Zhou, but he saw that the other party looked calm and in a very good mood, how could he look a little discouraged?
"Uncle Zhou, it's okay, you can continue to explain." The young man's crisp voice sounded like a clear spring, which makes people feel extraordinarily cool on a hot day.
Zhou Kuan nodded, and wiped another two centimeters in. After rinsing it off, he suddenly let out a 'huh', and saw a layer of mist appearing on the edge of the exposed emerald.
The fog layer usually refers to a layer of material between the leather shell and the jade flesh. The wool with the fog layer is from the outside to the inside, followed by the leather shell, the fog layer, and the jadeite.
The leather shell is equivalent to the coat, and the mist layer is the underwear, which tightly wraps the jadeite.
But the fog layer of this piece of wool is inside the emerald. This kind of situation is very rare, and he has never seen it much.
"...When you get out of the fog layer, cut a knife along the fog layer first, what do you think?"
Yun Zhou naturally had no objection, he vaguely felt that the dragon stone species was about to appear, perhaps just behind the fog layer.
This cutting still uses a wire cutting machine, and the small wool is fixed on the disc of the wire cutting machine, and the 0.1 mm thin wire passes through the fog layer, leaving a smooth and flat cut surface.
On the left side of the cut surface is glass-like jadeite that is nearly full of green, accounting for about one-fifth of the whole piece of wool. However, there are cracks inside, and the ring surface and pendant cannot be made. It can only be ground beads, and at least 400 million pieces have been cut.
On the other side, there was a white fog, which was very thin, but it was impossible to see through the fog layer.
"Strange, why is it foggy?"
"Is there another kind of water behind the fog layer? It must be inferior to the glass kind."
"It's the first time I've encountered this situation."
It was the first time for many people to see the fog layer inside the emerald, and they all stretched their necks to look inside.
The sound of the grinding wheel sounded again, and when the thin layer of fog was removed, the clear and flawless emerald was finally revealed.
Its texture is more transparent than glass, delicate and moist, smooth like silk, pure to the extreme, as moist as spring water is about to flow out, with a cold and cold breath.
The full green color is completely melted in the water-like texture, uniform and full, green everywhere, emerald green.
It's like a drop of strong emerald color dripping into the water, it melts instantly, and finally merges into one, without any color patches and color roots, as if green is not produced by the diffusion of chromium ions, but exists in such a clear species. In the water, species and color are completely combined, perfect!
"It's still full of green glass, right? But the cracks and cotton seem to be gone."
"It should be, but this green color is so clear and beautiful, it has a... indescribable feeling."
"The water head is too full, and the fluorescence is also strong. It can be called the best of the glass species!"
"This time it must have risen—"
Everyone was very excited, but they didn't notice anything. After all, the dragon stone species only exists in the legendary water. I'm afraid few people present have seen it, and they don't think about it for a while.
However, Zhou Kuan is the one closest to this jadeite.
He touched the face that exuded the cold air, and looked at the color that could not see the roots and patches of color even with the lights on, and there was a faint guess in his heart, which made his eyes tinged with shock.
He has been betting on stones for more than 20 years and has seen so many emeralds. What impressed him the most was a pendant he saw at a top jewelry auction six or seven years ago.
The pendant is carved with a Buddha in relief. When you touch it with your hand, there is a cold air coming out of it, and no particles can be seen so delicately.
The head of the water is absolutely amazing. Putting your fingers on the back can completely show it. There is no cotton and no variegated colors. The only pity is that the green is light and not strong. Not to mention compared with full green and sun green, even seedling green is not up to it. , very light, very light, but a high price of 1500 million!
One can imagine how surprised he was at the time.
This is just a pendant, not a ring or a bracelet. Such a high price is really rare. Only after he asked the staff did he know that it was a dragon stone jadeite.
The dragonstone jadeite that is more precious than glass jadeite, which has only been heard of by its name but has never been seen before!
Only once, and he never saw it again.Sure enough, like a dragon, it is difficult for ordinary people to see.
But today, he might see him again.
Zhou Kuan restrained his excitement and took several deep breaths before continuing to rub stones.
Four or ten minutes later, when the emerald was completely released, everyone was shocked.
"My God, this is...full, full-colored, full-green emerald!" Someone stammered.
"No cotton, no cracks, no impurities, colorless roots, no color blocks, no color spots, an old color, strong fluorescence, and even color. Damn, such jadeite actually exists?!"
"Am I dazzled, it's impossible—"
"Even the glass species imperial green can't achieve colorless roots. How can it be done? How is it possible?"
Ordinary jadeite raw stones buried under mines will inevitably have cracks, cotton, and impurities after natural weathering, collision and extrusion, and the intrusion of impurities.
And because the chromium ions diffuse in the gaps to form green, the color will definitely be uneven, and the phenomenon of colored roots is only the difference between obvious and not obvious.
But this piece of jade is completely beyond people's imagination, as if subverting the previous cognition.
"It's possible, because dragon stone jade grows in caves." Old Master Xu's voice was trembling with excitement.
The dragon stone species has been out of production for more than 40 years. I didn't expect to see it here, and it is such a top-quality dragon stone full of green emeralds!
Back then, Handed down Jewelry also had a dragonstone pendant as its treasure, but was forced to sell it due to business reasons.
Even 40 years ago, dragonstone species were rare treasures that could not be found, and it was impossible to redeem them.
"Dragonstone species, oh, so this is the Dragonstone species!"
"I actually saw the legendary jadeite here today. It was a worthwhile trip."
"Sure enough, it is like a dragon coming out of the water. The water head and clarity are rare in my life."
"The first time I saw it, it really opened my eyes."
Amidst all kinds of voices of exclamation and praise, Xia Rong of Hongguang Jewelry was completely stunned, and endless regrets flooded him like sea water.
Dragonstone species, as a jeweler, he certainly knows this top-level jadeite. Judging from various characteristics, he can confirm that this is the real dragonstone species!
He regretted why he didn't spend a few million more to get this piece of wool.
This is even more precious than the glass species, the jade that is not seen at all now, speaking of being unique, what else could be more unique than it?
Maybe there is only such a piece in the whole world!
But it's no use regretting it now, if you buy it, you have to buy it.
Like him, all the jewelers came after hearing the news, and even Dai Hong, who was full of despair, sat up from the ground and rushed over here.
At this time, someone asked about the price, and Yun Zhou also looked at Mr. Xu curiously. Although he didn't intend to sell it, he wanted to know the market price.
Mr. Xu said in a hoarse voice, "This is gem-level jadeite, which cannot be calculated by ordinary jadeite, but by grams.
The auction price of Longshi light-colored jadeite is about 25 one gram, excluding carving and loss, it is about 10 per gram.but--"
Mr. Xu changed the subject, "This is full green jadeite, and it can produce a full green bracelet, beads, generous cards and at least 3-5 large rings. Therefore, its value, the most conservative estimate, is Each gram is more than 50!””
He put the emerald, which was a little bigger than an adult's fist, on the weighing instrument, and the displayed weight was 1352 grams.
It also means that the value of this piece of jade exceeds 6 million!
