I have a two world clock

Chapter 3 Cut Jade

"Here, here!"

When Li Mu saw Jiang Mingyue, Jiang Mingyue also saw Li Mu, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and she hurriedly waved to Li Mu: "I've been waiting for you for a while, and when I eat noodles later, I will punish you to add two more marinated eggs! "

Li Mu laughed, sat down across from Jiang Mingyue, and put the milk tea on the table: "Add ten marinated eggs and it's all right. Now, the milk tea shop on the street."

Jiang Mingyue smiled and said, "Ten? Then I can't eat it, so I can replace it with stewed tofu, tofu rolls or something."

She took the milk tea, took a cup by herself, put the other cup into a straw and pushed it to Li Mu: "Oh, is this shop still open? I remember the little girl who sells milk tea, she must be pretty old now, right?"

Li Mu smiled and said: "It should be married, and now the figure is a little swollen, two or three times fatter than before."

Jiang Mingyue was taken aback for a moment, then couldn't help laughing out: "Really? I remember the little girl is pretty."

She was wearing a light blue and black windbreaker, a white shirt inside, and white slacks. The clothes were neat and neat, with a taste of professional attire, which further set off her outstanding temperament, making it obvious that she was a woman from a wealthy family. Or the feeling of being a rich person.

Logically speaking, a person dressed like her would never appear in a small noodle restaurant with heavy oily smoke and poor sanitation, a five-star hotel, or a high-end restaurant, which is in line with her style of painting.

Compared to five or six years ago, she has lost her immature aura and has become a mature and intellectual woman, exuding astonishing charm in every move she makes.

At this time, he covered his mouth and smiled lightly, and the majestic place on his chest trembled slightly, which made people think endlessly.

"What are you looking at!"

Seeing Li Mu looking at her chest, Jiang Mingyue's pretty face flushed slightly, and she gave Li Mu a blank look: "Why are you still so perverted?"

Li Mu chuckled: "I can't help it, I can't help it! I didn't expect that the old goddess would become more and more beautiful after not seeing her for a few years!"

Jiang Mingyue: "Cut, virtue!"

Li Mu smiled: "Should we still eat noodles? Big bowls and small bowls?"

Jiang Mingyue said: "Small bowls are fine. I can't eat spicy food now. I get acne when I eat chili peppers. It's very troublesome."

"receive."

Li Mu turned and looked at the boss below: "Boss, two bowls of pan mee, one big and one small, the big bowl needs wide noodles, put more chili, and the small bowl should not be spicy, but thin noodles. Well, put the toppings in your bowl, the same All the same, give me one."

The restaurant owner turned around in surprise: "I have a lot of toppings, can you two eat it?"

Li Mu smiled and said: "Don't worry, I have a big appetite, I can't eat it, we take it away, I can't waste it."

The boss didn't ask any more questions: "Okay, you two wait a moment—!"

He elongated his tone, and began to pick up a few pieces of dough and smash them.

Jiang Mingyue leaned closer to Li Mu: "Hey, my appetite is much smaller now, if I can't finish eating in a while, the old rules, you have to be responsible for the finishing work."

Li Mu smiled and said, "No problem! My appetite is bigger now than before."

When the two were studying at Wencheng University, Li Mu often brought Jiang Mingyue to this snack street to eat. The beef noodles they ate the most were the beef noodles.

In fact, the beef pan noodles are spicy and salty, and many women avoid them, but many men with heavy tastes flock to them and like them very much.

Li Mu himself has a strong taste. He likes to drink strong alcohol and eat heavy oil and spicy food. Therefore, among noodle dishes, he especially loves pan mee. He has recommended this noodle restaurant to Jiang Mingzhu more than once.

At that time, I only wanted to recommend the food I thought was delicious to the person I liked, but I didn't think about whether Jiang Mingzhu liked it or not.

Thinking about it now, Jiang Mingzhu, who came from a wealthy family, has always had a mild taste, so she may not like this kind of salty and spicy pan noodles, but because of her boyfriend Li Mu's recommendation, I'm afraid I can only force myself to like it.

She has been in love with Li Mu for two years, and when she goes out to eat, she mostly eats simple meals in the small restaurants in front of the school, such as ramen, pan noodles, simple stir-fried vegetables, and occasionally eats simple meals, grilled fish, etc. It's a luxury.

But she never showed any dissatisfaction. When eating noodles with Li Mu, if she can add an extra marinated egg, she will be happy for a long time.

At that time, the happiness between lovers was really easy to be satisfied.

When the noodles were served, the boss personally placed a plate of toppings in front of Li Mu: "Don't waste it!"

There are more than a dozen kinds of stewed meatballs, dried tofu, seaweed rolls, braised eggs, sausages, etc. on the plate, and the plate is full.

Li Mu put a marinated egg in Jiang Mingyue's bowl, and took a bite of dried tofu himself: "It's still the original taste!"

Jiang Mingyue glanced at Li Mu with a smile: "Hey, you are more polite. I remember before, I was the one who picked up food for you, but you have never picked up food for me."

Li Mu smiled and said, "Aren't you a little flattered? This stewed egg is not for nothing. When you sell stones later, you can charge a higher price!"

Jiang Mingyue: "Isn't it? You are too utilitarian. If you put it this way, your braised egg is too valuable. Can I not eat it?"

Li Mu raised his fist, shook it in front of Jiang Mingyue, and said viciously, "Don't eat it? Have you ever seen a fist as big as a casserole? How dare you not give Brother Mu's face? Hmph, you don't want to ask what Master Mu does! "

"puff!"

Jiang Mingyue laughed out loud immediately: "Okay, I'm afraid of you! Let's eat noodles first, I haven't eaten in a small restaurant for a long time."

After a meal, Li Mu ate very comfortably. When they walked out of the noodle shop together, Jiang Mingyue raised her sleeves and sniffed it. She frowned and said, "The smell of the noodle shop is too strong, and now the clothes are smelly."

Li Mu smiled and said, "It's okay, I don't despise you!"

Jiang Mingyue: "I hate it!"

Walking out of the snack street, the two came to a nearby parking lot. Jiang Mingyue looked at Li Mu: "Where's your car?"

Li Mu pointed to the domestically-made Dongfeng SUV nearby: "Hey, this is it."

Jiang Mingyue put her hand on her forehead, and said with a speechless expression, "You're doing too well. With your salary, a medium-sized car should be fine. Isn't it a bit too low-key to drive this kind of car?"

Li Mu was puzzled and said: "The performance of this car is not bad, the space is quite large, and sometimes it can pull goods, I feel very good."

Jiang Mingyue shook her head and said, "Normally, but if you want to sell stones today, you need a better car, and then you can ask for a higher price. Otherwise, if you really want to drive such a car, I will give you the price." Can't lift it up."

She said here: "Hey, what about the stone you are talking about? Show me a few times first. I have already called several jewelry appraisers of the company to wait in the silver building. Don't let the stone you take be worthless, then I But it’s a shame.”

Li Mu beckoned: "Come on, just let you take a look first."

He came to the back of the car, opened the trunk, took out a rough emerald stone and handed it to Jiang Mingyue: "Hey, this is the worst piece."

Jiang Mingyue held it in her hand and looked at it carefully, her face became serious: "Come on, let's go to the store to have a good appraisal."

Now major jewelry stores are short of good raw materials, especially jadeite raw materials.

With the improvement of the country's economy, the consumption of residents has also bravely climbed to the peak. Even if some jewelry is fired at sky-high prices, there will never be a shortage of buyers.

As for jadeite raw materials imported from abroad, the export volume has been restricted by small southern countries many years ago, resulting in rising prices, and the supply is still in short supply.

The shitty stones that no one used to look at are now called jade, and they are turned into various accessories and sold in jewelry stores.

Many merchants hold activities and sell so-called jade jewelry at a discount. They are basically made of such shitty stones, and many of them are not as good as shitty stones. But as long as they are dyed well and polished a little, they can still be Get a good price.

These fakes are just fine for ordinary people. For rich people, this method cannot be used all the time. For rich and powerful people, let alone routines, there is no time to fawn on them, so naturally they cannot be faked.

The real top jewelry is still scarce in the market.

Jiang Mingyue's family runs a gold store jewelry, and she is now the manager of the Jiangjia Silver House, so she is very clear about the market of the jewelry industry. Now the jadeite rough brought by Li Mu is of extremely high quality. It seems to be the legendary old pit glass variety. Zhengyang didn't look like a fake, his attitude immediately corrected.

If it is really Laokeng glass, the price of this fist-sized rough stone will definitely skyrocket, and she can't help but be careless.

On the way to the jewelry store, Li Mu wanted to drive his own car, but was rejected by Jiang Mingyue: "You can take my car, um, and then go change your clothes, don't let people look down on you then."

"No, I'm just selling jade, why do I need to change clothes?"

"Changing clothes looks dignified."

"What the hell does this have to do with Zhuang Zhong? I'm just a seller. If we pay the money with one hand, won't it be settled if we deliver the goods with one hand?"

"If you want to sell for a good price, you have to listen to me."

"Well, you are the biggest today."

Li Mu found it difficult to understand Jiang Mingyue's way of acting, but seeing her insistence on doing so, Li Mu could only follow her.

So the two of them drove to the shopping mall first, wandered around the shopping mall for a long time, and also spent a long time picking.

Jiang Mingyue not only bought clothes and shoes for Li Mu from head to toe, but also bought a set of clothes for herself, and then drove her BMW to Mingyue Silver Building with a radiant face.

That's right, the silver building of Jiang Mingyue's family is called Mingyue Silver Building.

At that time, when his parents were preparing to open the bank, Jiang Mingyue was born, so the bank was registered as Mingyue Bank under Jiang Mingyue's name.

This shows how much Jiang Mingyue's parents love Jiang Mingyue.

The two got out of the car and came to the silver building together. The manager on duty came to greet him: "Mr. Jiang, Mr. Li, please come inside. Mr. Zhang and the others are waiting in the office."

Li Mu was carrying a big bag, and looked at Jiang Mingyue with a teasing look on his face: "Boss Jiang, please go first!"

Jiang Mingyue snorted, and left first: "Are you envious or jealous? Let me tell you, I'm very good now!"

Li Mu chuckled: "Jiang Shanhe's daughter is naturally extraordinary."

Jiang Shanhe is Jiang Mingyue's father, and Li Mu met him once.

He was a middle-aged man with a scholarly air. He didn't express any clear objection to the relationship between Li Mu and Jiang Mingyue, but he didn't stop Jiang Mingyue's mother from making small moves towards Li Mu either.

This kind of person is deep in thought, and his emotions and anger are invisible, which is disliked by Li Mu.

Speaking of him at this time was just a casual joke without any personal emotions.

Jiang Mingyue in front turned around and gave Li Mu a hard look: "You know a lot!"

She led Li Mu through the counter, entered the corridor behind, took the elevator to the sixth floor, stopped in front of the third door, and knocked lightly.

A moment later, the door opened.

An old man with gray hair stood at the door and said with a smile, "Mingyue is here? Little girl, what kind of treasure is it that made you call us old guys over here?"

Jiang Mingyue smiled and said, "Hello, Uncle Zhang, are Uncle Xie and Uncle Tian here?"

An old man's voice sounded in the room: "Mingyue is here, come in quickly, let uncle see, what good things are there?"

Jiang Mingyue gave Li Mu a push: "Don't take the things over yet. These are a few friends of my father's. They are all experts in jade appraisal. It's up to them to see what the quality of your rough jadeite is and how much you can sell it for." The result of the identification."

There were two old people sitting in the living room, plus the old man who opened the door, there were three old people in total.

These three old people are all in their 60s. Except for Zhang who opened the door and looks thin, the old people surnamed Xie and Tian in the living room are all chubby. vulgar.

Seeing Jiang Mingyue, the two old men in the room nodded and said, "Sit down, where are the things?"

After Jiang Mingyue introduced Li Mu to everyone, Li Mu took out a rough jadeite from the bag and put it gently on the tea table in the living room: "I am Li Mu, Mingyue's friend. A teacher palms his eyes."

"Oh, the stone with the window?"

The old man surnamed Xie was called Xie Dongchang. The old man was the first to hold the stone in his hand, put on reading glasses, took out the flashlight, and looked carefully for a while: "Hiss, Zhengyang green species? How is this possible?"

"Don't you read it wrong?"

"let me see!"

"Emeralds with this kind of water head are rare."

The old man surnamed Zhang next to him was called Zhang Heshun, and the one surnamed Tian was called Tian Jianguang. After hearing Xie Dongchang's words, the two became a little excited and surrounded them one after another.

After a long time, the three of them gently placed the rough stone on the table and looked at Li Mu at the same time.

Li Mu smiled and said, "Three teachers, how about this stone?"

The three were silent for a moment, and Xie Dongchang was the first to speak: "Xiao Li, your emerald water head is good, but only one skylight is opened, and no one can say for sure how much jade meat is inside. So the price is hard to say."

Zhang Heshun and Tian Jianguang also nodded in agreement with Xie Dongchang's point of view.

Li Mu smiled and said, "Then help me see the other few stones."

He took out the remaining stones one by one and put them in front of everyone: "Three teachers, please have a look."

Xie Dongchang and the others looked at each other, each picked up a stone to examine it carefully, their expressions kept changing, and after a long time, they began to exchange stones in their hands and focused on observing.

The faces of the three became more and more serious.

Finally, the three of them put down the stones, and Xie Dongchang looked at Jiang Mingyue: "Mingyue, your family may not be able to eat these few stones."

Jiang Mingyue suppressed her surprise and asked, "How much do you value these stones?"

Xie Dongchang said: "There are a total of seven rough stones here, all of which have skylights, and the best one is Emperor Green or Zhengyang Green. Based on this quality, even if only one skylight is wiped out, it is worth it. Ten million. The remaining few stones, add up, there is no 3000 million that cannot be dropped."

He said to Jiang Mingyue: "Although your Jiang family is rich and powerful, I'm afraid you may not be able to withdraw so much cash all at once."

Jiang Mingyue nodded: "Well, I have to discuss this with my family."

Li Mu asked: "If this is cut out, can it sell more?"

Xie Dongchang said: "You have to think about it. If you don't cut these stones, they will be worth at least 4000 million, and more. If they are cut, the value will be greatly reduced."

Jiang Mingyue looked at Li Mu: "What do you think? If you don't cut it, just rely on this skylight, I'll make the decision, 300 million, our bank will buy it in a package!"

Li Mu shook his head and said: "The so-called gods can't cut jade, I can't let you take this risk. If it is cut off, your company will lose a lot of money. You should cut it out and talk about the price. Everyone is at ease."

Jiang Mingyue nodded and said, "Okay, you can make up your own mind. There is a cutting machine behind, so we can cut it now."

As the manager of the silver building, she can't blindly let her feelings affect the company's business. Besides, the amount involved in this business is really not small, and she doesn't want to take this risk.

Since Li Mu insisted on dissecting the stone, she stopped persuading him.

At that moment, several people went downstairs together and went to the third basement floor.

There is a rough stone cutting machine here. After calling the cutter, the cutter did not dare to cut it drastically, but could only grind it from the edge skin along the skylight a little bit.

The first stone to be cut was the imperial green rough.

This rough stone is only the size of a fist, but the head of the water is too full and the color is right, just looking at it gives people a very comfortable feeling.

When the skin grinding started, everyone at the scene, except Li Mu, held their breath and concentrated, fearing that something might go wrong.

Such a precious seed material, and the skylight is in such a good condition, it would be a pity if it really collapsed.

Seeing that the outer skin is getting less and less, and the green area is getting bigger and bigger, everyone is very excited.

"It's up! It's up!"

Xie Dongchang muttered to himself: "This is imperial green, I haven't seen such a good material for many years!"
