My system is not decent

Chapter 333 A price difference of more than ten times

Cornflower blue is a soft, vibrant blue with a hint of purple, much like the color of cornflower flowers;

The royal blue is a rich, deep, very correct blue.

At present, the best gemstone producing area in the world is Sri Lanka, which produces high-quality cornflower blue and royal blue.

However, it is unlikely that this kind of top sapphire will appear in front of Chen Wenzhe in large numbers.

Therefore, he can only look for some fish that slipped through the net, and the rest can only be made up by Kashmir sapphires.

This is a last resort, but Kashmir sapphires are not inferior.

It even broke out recently that someone used other gems to pretend to be Kashmir sapphires.

Recently, according to the Swiss Gemological Institute, they received a batch of sapphire samples suspected to be produced in Kashmir.

After a series of testing and research, it was found that the real origin of these sapphires is Madagascar.

For this reason, they issued a warning to the industry, hoping that sellers should be alert to the newly emerging "Kashmir" sapphires in the market and do more detailed confirmation of origin.

After all, sapphires from Kashmir are much more expensive than sapphires from Madagascar.

The price difference between them per carat can be as high as 30-50 times. Once you make a mistake, the loss is not small.

They kept picking out one after another sapphires, and soon there were dozens of them on the table, and only three minutes had passed.

This small safe is just an ordinary suitcase with a length of about forty centimeters, a width of thirty centimeters, and a thickness of ten centimeters.

But in such a small box, there are thousands of sapphires.

Thinking about the size of that gloomy wooden coffin, Chen Wenzhe was really a little speechless.

At that time, he kept moving things out, but he really didn't expect that there were so many gems out of it.

There are a lot of pearls and emerald beads inside, don't you think?
It's a pity that the price of jadeite is not easy to determine, or it can't be sold at all, because Chen Wenzhe has no shipping channels at all.

And pearls are more pitted, it is formed of protein, it is easy to deteriorate and rot.

In this way, Chen Wenzhe had a lot less room to choose.

He can only choose from gemstones and gold. Gold is linked to RMB. Naturally, if he can choose less, he must choose less.

Besides, if he simply picks gold, he will definitely suffer.

Therefore, if there is a chance, Chen Wenzhe will naturally not be polite.

The size of any sapphire here must exceed ten carats, after all, it is the size of a fingernail!
In fact, such a large sapphire is only a little over two grams, but the price of such a small sapphire is definitely high.

According to incomplete statistics, from 1979 to 2008, a total of 150 top sapphires were auctioned in the world, of which 121 were Kashmir sapphires, and the auction price was as high as 3.9 to 13.5 US dollars per carat.

After 2008, the price has increased a lot.

Even with this outdated data, Chen Wenzhe made a lot of money this time.

Even if the carat price is set at a low value, one hundred thousand dollars per carat, he will make a lot of money this time.

A top sapphire is worth more than one million US dollars, which is more than six million yuan when converted into RMB.

Now Chen Wenzhe buys sapphires of more than ten carats at a price of [-] sapphires, an average of [-] yuan per carat.

This is the difference between ordinary sapphires and top-grade Kashmir sapphires, the price difference is more than ten times!
As for whether the batch of sapphires selected by Chen Wenzhe were top-notch, it goes without saying.

There is no difference if you can get it in front of the Empress Dowager Cixi.

Not to mention Kashmir sapphires, even sapphires from other origins are high-quality goods and top jewelry.

As time passed, Chen Wenzhe's cheating methods became more and more proficient.

He didn't need to look closely at all, just touched it a little, and he could make a judgment when he saw the origin of the sapphire.

After all, the Empress Dowager Cixi a hundred years ago had people help Chen Wenzhe make countless choices.

There are no defective sapphires that can appear here.

He just needs to pick out the one with higher value.

The color is good, and the size is slightly larger. The star sapphire is the first choice, followed by the Kashmir sapphire. After choosing this way, I quickly made up a hundred pieces.

Even if it is calculated on the basis of [-] US dollars per carat, the price of any gemstone is more than [-] US dollars.

Even if one dollar is exchanged for six renminbi, this is three million sapphires.

What's more, clarity, transparency, color, and size can also affect the price of sapphires, causing them to turn upwards.

Therefore, a sapphire valued at $[-] million by Chen Wenzhe is still the price of cabbage, which is the wholesale price, not the market price.

If it is star sapphire, the price is even higher.

This is the role of a qualified jewelry appraiser. If it is not qualified, the loss will be great.

This meant that this batch of treasures had just come out of the water. If it took a long time, after a round of appraisals by a large number of experts, Chen Wenzhe would never be able to pick up such leaks.

There are no ifs in the world, so this time, Chen Wenzhe was not polite, because he deserved such a high reward.

"Is there anything else I can choose? I will choose these for this box, or choose rubies!"

Feeling that there was really no choice, Chen Wenzhe stopped.

Putting it away, he still picked it out, nearly two hundred sapphires.

And the heads are very uniform, the color and quality are similar.

As for the star sapphires, maybe the cuts in the late Qing Dynasty were not good, or star sapphires were not popular at all, so the number is not large, and each one is not very transparent, that is, the color is good, so it was filled in Cixi in the coffin.

Such ones are inconspicuous, and others, in front of a box of sapphires, are not too conspicuous.

In fact, Chen Wenzhe knew very well that among the sapphires that came out of the water, what he got was some small garbage, because the big ones were all gone.

He discovered these gemstones and brought them out of the water. He naturally knew that among the sapphires that came out of the water, there were quite a few sapphires that were not small.

As long as the head is big enough, the price can break through the sky.

As Chen Wenzhe knows, there was once a 35.09-carat Kashmir sapphire sold at auction for US$745 million, and its single-carat price was US$21, breaking the auction record for Kashmir sapphire.

There are also some that can be auctioned for three to five million US dollars. It can be said that the heavier the sapphire, the better, and the more expensive it is.

The weight of sapphire, like diamonds, rubies, emeralds, etc., is expressed in carats, 1 carat = 200 mg = 0.2 grams.

Weight, or carat, is second only to color in determining the value of a sapphire.

In the case of the same gem color, clarity, etc., the larger the value, the higher the value.

If two cornflower blue sapphires are in front of you, there is no doubt that the one with the larger carat is heavier and more expensive.
