Chapter 0971 – The Jade King (II)
Although stone gambling is rumored to be very mysterious, and since ancient times, there is the saying that it is difficult for the gods to determine an inch of jade, but as long as one understands the nature of the stone, in fact, it is not completely untraceable.
Like Tang Lao, the science class, a lifetime of dealing with jadeite raw stone people, it is possible from the performance of the outer skin of the raw stone, deduce the formation conditions of this piece of wool, so as to determine whether there is jadeite inside.
So Zhuang Rui only rely on a few pieces of material now, want to win Tang Lao, he himself feel a little unsubstantial, and the performance of those pieces of material are good, the bidding is also estimated to be more, a little bit not in line with Zhuang Rui’s mind.
According to Zhuang Rui’s idea, at least to whole out of a piece of glass seed material, so as to be invincible, just this glass seed jadeite usually can be found and can not be sought, perhaps today’s bidding more than 10,000 pieces of raw stone inside a piece of no, it is also impossible to say.
Fortunately, Zhuang Rui now only look at about one-tenth of the material, the rest there are a lot of the blue water material in the back of a mark, Zhuang Rui continued to look down, just until the point of lunch, have not been able to find better jadeite raw stone.
At lunch time, Qin Haoran saw his son-in-law’s mood was not high, and asked, “What’s wrong, Xiao Rui, didn’t find any good material?”
“There’s a piece of blue water jadeite, it’s an excellent material for making bracelets, but the quality is not up to glass seed, so I’m afraid I won’t be able to win against Tang Lao.”
In front of his own people, Zhuang Rui did not hide his own heart to win, anyway, this should be the last time to participate in the jadeite fair, he wanted to leave a legend for posterity, a legend that can not be surpassed.
So the district blue water ice seed material, Zhuang Rui simply did not look in the eye, this time he thought of that piece in the hands of the ancient master of the best yellow Fei, if appeared in the disk, it is absolutely unquestionable jadeite king.
“You …… you kid, ice type of blue water jadeite you still not satisfied ah?”
Qin Haoran stared at Zhuang Rui, put his hand out and said, “That material you don’t want me to, mark me, turn around and I’ll go bidding to go.”
Blue water floating flower jadeite bracelet, especially sought after in the market, is the best out of a class of jadeite jewelry, so Qin Haoran also do not care about is the son-in-law in the eyes of the, at the same time nonchalantly will be marked to go.
Zhuang Rui shook his head with a bitter smile, did not say anything, he really do not believe it, tens of thousands of pieces of raw stone inside the pick not a piece of self-satisfaction, after dinner, Zhuang Rui also did not rest, directly to the open bidding area.
From 3:30 p.m. to open the bidding, only more than three hours, Zhuang Rui heart also has a sense of urgency, and then speed up the speed, more than an hour’s work, actually looked at more than six thousand pieces of raw stone.
“Damn, this glass seed material are dug up not?”
Zhuang Rui hot head sweat, poured a few mouths of mineral water in the hand, these thousands of pieces of material in the lack of high ice seed jade, but Zhuang Rui thought of glass seed material, but never found.
This makes Zhuang Rui on the jadeite fair slander, the overall quality of the raw stone, than he participated in that time simply can not be the same day, that one single glass seed material, Zhuang Rui found three, and still three different colors of the glass seed.
In fact, this is not to blame the Myanmar organizing committee, now Myanmar, the old pit species of jadeite mine has almost been dug out, and the new pit species of material, due to the formation of the time of the lack of glass species of material is relatively rare.
This also caused the jade market in recent years, glass jewelry is extremely popular, the price has climbed, and in the jewelry store appeared glass jewelry, basically colorless.
If the high green or sunny green glass jewelry, basically appear in the auction house, was some people photographed for collection, rarely in the market circulation.
“Xiao Zhuang, how is it, do you have a favorite material?”
Unconsciously, Zhuang Rui actually converged with Tang Lao who was observing the raw stone from the other side, he had been focusing on the raw stone until Tang Lao gave him a greeting, Zhuang Rui reacted.
“Tang Lao?”
Zhuang Rui froze for a moment and said, “Hey, all I’m looking at is the semi-gambling material, but I’ve got my eye on a few pieces, what about you, Tang Lao?”
When Zhuang Rui said this, Tang Lao was relieved, just now he was still puzzled, how Zhuang Rui walked all the way here, not even with a bend.
Tang old man gambling stone decades, has never seen such identification of jadeite raw stone it, hear Zhuang Rui words, only then know, dare to Zhuang Rui but has already selected a good material.
“The old man also looked at a few pieces, but can not get, in the end is old, not as good as you young people ah!”
Although Tang Lao said modestly, but his face is a kind of arrogance, I think he picked a few pieces of material, the heart is very satisfied.
“Teacher, you just said that piece of material has a few sessions of the public disk have not seen, how ……”
Tang old modest, a disciple beside him can not help, immediately opened his mouth and said, after finishing also looked at Zhuang Rui a glance, provocative meaning overflowing.
Tang old man looked at the disciple beside him, shook his head and said: “This jadeite raw stone is ever-changing, not cut out before, no one dares to assert that there is actually what, Xiao Su, do not talk nonsense.”
Zhuang Rui listened to a little depressed, look at this old man’s chest look, must have been selected to get the preferred raw stone, but since I have not found it, it is difficult not really want to lose this competition today?
“Xiao Zhuang, go sit in the shed! It’s been a day of watching, and my old bones are a bit overwhelmed.”
Elder Tang hammered his back, he was almost 70 years old, and after standing under this hot sun for a day, plus observing the raw stones was also draining his mind, this time his face really didn’t look good.
“Okay, Old Tang, seeing that you don’t look too good, I have Rendan here, take a few of them!”
Due to the incident of Old Wu’s sudden death yesterday, when the people came out this morning, Hu Rong gave each person some medicine to relieve the summer heat, with Zhuang Rui’s physique naturally he couldn’t use it, and had been carrying it in his pocket.
“Good, good, yesterday also said I wanted to buy it, this Myanmar is too inconvenient to buy things, even a bottle of wind oil essence has no place to find.”
Tang Lao was not polite, after receiving the medicine handed by Zhuang Rui, he directly poured a few capsules in his mouth and swallowed it without using water, the disciple beside him snatched a step into the shed and poured a cup of water for his teacher.
Zhuang Rui followed behind Tang Lao and stepped into the shed, but before going in, he saw a large stone of about the same height as him standing on the side of the shed, and couldn’t help but say, “The quality of the raw stones in this session of the public auction can be really poor!”
“This piece of material you’re talking about?”
When Tang Lao saw Zhuang Rui’s eyes staring at the piece of raw stone on the side of the shed, he was also dumbfounded, this piece of material, rather than calling it a jadeite raw stone, it would be better to say a stone block, because from the physical surface, there was no characteristic of any jadeite raw stone.
General inside contains jadeite raw stone, more or less in the skin will have some signs, and this piece of up to more than one meter eight, the width of the stone is also in more than one meter, the surface is very smooth, there is no jadeite raw stone characteristics, more like a block of mountain rock.
Such a stone if it is really a jadeite raw stone, it can be called a giant, but placed here, but with the stone next to it is a bit out of place, if not to see the label next to the stone, Zhuang Rui even thought that this is a piece of ordinary stone it!
“Yes! This kind of material organizing committee party also take out, is not fooling people?”
Zhuang Rui took a look at the stone’s price tag, then said, “The bottom bid is actually four million euros, really think that the money of these people in our country, are all blowing in the wind.”
“This is also no way of doing things, jadeite this line of work can only rely on imports from Burma, perhaps after a few decades, we plucked today’s jadeite, will become an antique, but to that will, I can not see.”
Tang Lao said with some emotion, he and jadeite dealt with a lifetime, think about some years later, the world will no longer have jadeite can be picked, the mood is inevitably a little low.
“Yes, not only is jadeite, our country’s Hetian jade, is also being picked almost, some time ago and Tian Bo phone call, he also …… hmm?”
Zhuang Rui said words, habitual use of aura in the shed side of the piece of “mountain rock” within the wandering circle, suddenly froze, the following want to say words, a moment to forget.
“What’s wrong, Xiao Zhuang? Old Tian and I have been friends for decades, if he has anything to say, I won’t spread it around.”
Elder Tang thought that Zhuang Rui was a junior and didn’t dare to talk nonsense about his elder’s words, so he stopped his mouth, but he didn’t notice that a hint of surprise flashed in Zhuang Rui’s eyes.
“Uh, it’s nothing, these years the state has started to control the excavation of Hetian Jade, Uncle Tian said that it’s a good thing, it can leave some thoughts for the future generations as well.”
Zhuang Rui absentmindedly chatted with Tang Lao, but in his heart, he was excited, because just now when the aura seeped into the giant “mountain rock”, Zhuang Rui felt an extremely pure and cool aura.
This kind of breath Zhuang Rui once felt several times, in the once arrived at the emperor green material already that piece of excellent yellow Fei above, Zhuang Rui once had this feeling.
Zhuang Rui will be excited in his heart, afraid of being Tang Lao to see some clues, immediately stood up and said: “Tang Lao, you old first rest, I will go out to turn around.”
Just now Zhuang Rui just a little sense, and did not see clearly this piece of “rock” in the hidden what kind of emerald, the heart is really like a cat’s claw, no longer have the heart in this with the old Tang chat.
Tang Lao did not suspect anything, waved his hand and said: “Good, Xiao Zhuang you go! When I was young, I used to see three days and three nights in a row of raw stones in the gambling center, being young is good!”
Zhuang Rui said sorry, left the pergola, walked to a dead corner of the pergola and stopped, squatted next to a piece of raw stone, condensed the aura in his eyes and looked towards the “rock”.
