Chapter 306
"Isn't it really rough here?"

Looking at the sheds built directly on the dirt, even Huang Bingyu shook his head. Although he had never been to Myanmar, he had participated in an emerald fair held in Pingzhou once. The environment there was much better than this.

"Boss Huang, this is what we did in our own village, and it's not a foreign transaction."

Li Yongqian's sense of collective honor is quite strong. After hearing Huang Bingyu's evaluation, he said: "We hold a jade festival every year. The scale is much bigger than this. Boss Huang, you can come to participate, and you will definitely To your satisfaction..."

In order to attract jade merchants from all over the country to Yangmei, Yangmei has been holding jade festivals since the early 90s, and today, it is already well-known in China.

"Okay, I will definitely come to see it when the time comes." Huang Bingyu nodded, and said, "Boss Li, the gambling stones here, I don't know how to trade them?"

Although Huang Bingyu has never gambled with stones, he has heard a lot of relevant knowledge. He knows that there are two ways to gamble with stones in Myanmar: open bids and hidden bids.

As the name suggests, open bids are open bids, and the highest bidder wins. As for hidden bids, the buyer writes the number of the rough stone he likes on the betting slip, and after the staff sorts it out, the winning bid price is reported.

However, these all happened in Myanmar. The place where rough jadeite is traded in front of you, at a glance, only 500 yuan for rough stones. The scale is too small, and it is obviously not suitable for Myanmar's trading methods.

"The transaction method here is very simple. Buy and sell immediately. As long as you can negotiate the price with the seller and pay the payment, you can cut stones on the spot."

Li Yongqian pointed to a machine placed in an open field and said, "That thing is a stone cutter. It is provided by the village. It costs 50 yuan a time..."

"Do you want more money?"

Qin Feng said dumbfoundedly when he heard the words: "It's really up to you to make a fortune. No matter how you say it, your village is sure to make money."

There is a saying in the gambling world, if you want not to lose, you have to not gamble. Don’t look at the casinos in Ao Island making money every day, but people who have experience in casinos never go to the gambling table.

The same is true for Yangmei’s village committee. They only provide venues and equipment, and the villagers organize their own sales and transactions. Winning or losing has nothing to do with the village committee, and they can also make money from it.

"This is the old village chief's idea."

Li Yongqian glanced at Uncle Liu in the distance, his eyes were full of admiration, a small village that was not very good at first, had undergone earth-shaking changes under the leadership of Uncle Liu, so Uncle Liu said in Yangmei, No one is unconvinced.

Seeing that there were more and more people in the venue, Huang Bingyu couldn't stand anymore, and said, "Qin Feng, let's look around, but we have agreed not to participate in stone gambling."

"Old Huang, are you really here to buy jadeite?"

After hearing Huang Bingyu's words, Li Yongqian curled his lips and said, "There are also stones worth a hundred or so yuan here, it would be a pity not to gamble..."

"No gambling."

Huang Bingyu shook his head and said: "If there is one, there must be another. If you gamble once, you won't be able to pull it out. Let me take a look. Buying a bet is a bit more expensive, but the risk is small..."

Huang Bingyu's gambling nature is not very big. This is certainly an advantage in the business field, but it also means that he is not pioneering enough, and at certain times his lack of courage is also a factor restricting his development.

"Let's take a look first..."

Qin Feng said noncommittally: "As Boss Li said, it's not bad to buy a few yuan for fun. Anyway, it's 80 yuan, and anyone can afford it."

While talking, a few people walked to a booth where jadeite rough stones of 30 yuan were placed.

The rough stones on this booth are all black stones, the small ones are only as big as a baby's palm, and the biggest ones are no bigger than a football. There is no trace of emerald on any of the stones.

"Is the emerald really cut out of this stone?"

Zhu Kai, who had never been involved in betting on stones before, looked at those stones with suspicion in his eyes. Jadeite is so beautiful and eye-catching, but this background is too inconspicuous.

"That's right, this is the rough emerald."

Qin Feng nodded, squatted down, looked at the middle-aged man sitting in the pile of stones, and said, "Uncle, if I read correctly, these stones of yours should all be picked from the Mameng Pit. Is it the black black sand that came out?"

"Hey, young man, you have some eyesight, are you an expert?"

The middle-aged man who had set up a tea table and was drinking by himself couldn't help being stunned for a moment when he heard Qin Feng's words. When he looked up, he found Li Yongqian, stood up immediately, and said, "Ah Gan, it's you Those who brought it, come, sit down and have a cup of Kung Fu tea!"

People who grew up in the Chaoshan area can go without food for a day, but they can’t stop drinking tea for a moment. Kungfu tea has penetrated into their lives. No matter where they are, they will always find a way to make a pot of tea. of.

Many northerners do business in the Chaoshan region. The most unaccustomed thing is that when they arrive in the land, they must be treated with Kung Fu tea. This makes those northern bosses who are used to discussing business at the wine table often feel a little at a loss.

"Second brother, how is business?"

Li Yongqian was talking, and brought Qin Feng and others into the shed, and introduced: "This is my elder brother, named Li Yonghu, you can just call him second brother..."

There are several common surnames in this village of Yangmei, and Li Dou is one of them. Most of the people who set up stalls here today are related to Li Yongqian, basically they are all acquaintances.

"Agan, today is the first day, how can there be any business..." Li Yonghu poured a cup of tea for several people with a smile, looked at Qin Feng and said, "Little brother, is the rough stone business at home?"

The reason why Li Yonghu asked Qin Feng like this was based on what Qin Feng said at the beginning.

Because only those who are really engaged in the business of raw jadeite can tell the differences and descriptions of various rough jadeites, and even Li Yongqian can't do this.

When it comes to the entrance of jadeite rough stones, we must first talk about the jadeite mining areas in Myanmar. These mining areas are mainly located in the upper reaches of the Oolong River in the northwest of Menggong in northern Myanmar. They are about 250 kilometers long and 15 kilometers wide, covering an area of ​​more than [-] square kilometer.

The emeralds produced by the different pits of various mines all have their own characteristics, and the quality is different. Therefore, identifying the mouth of the stone pit, some people also call it the mouth of the mining pit, is of great help to infer the quality of the stone.

There is a famous saying in the jade industry, that is, "if you don't know the market, you don't play with stones". Therefore, when purchasing rough jadeite, you must understand the origin and characteristics of the material, otherwise you will be unconditionally engaged in stone gambling business.

Qin Feng just squatted down and looked at it for a while, and then told the origin of these black and black sands. Li Yonghu couldn't help but look differently, he was not a real expert, and he would never be able to say this.

Ma Meng is also a well-known old pit in Myanmar. It is famous for its rich black black sand with a black leather shell that looks like coal.

This kind of black black sand jadeite rough is generally cut out, and it is some low-end jadeite, but it has also produced the best imperial green, so it is listed as one of the top ten jade pits in Myanmar.

"I learned some knowledge about jade identification from the teacher, which made my second brother laugh."

Qin Feng let out a cry of luck in his heart. To be honest, his knowledge of jadeite was far worse than that of Hetian jade.

Among other things, when he took a piece of Hetian jade, Qin Feng could tell the approximate time when it was mined just by asking with his nose.

But for jadeite, besides getting some related skills of identifying rough stones from the inheritance, Qin Feng really learned about things like the old pit entrance from Qi Gong.

Speaking of which, it is also a matter of talent. Some people have learned jade knowledge for many years, but they still can’t tell whether your piece of jade is Hetian jade or Russian jade. The above knowledge, to distinguish the origin of the original stone.

However, Qin Feng has this talent. After some guidance from Qi Gong, Qin Feng firmly memorized the characteristics of each pit mouth rough stone in his mind. When he said it just now, Li Yonghu really regarded him as an expert.

"Little brother, who is your teacher?" Seeing how young Qin Feng was, Li Yonghu couldn't help asking.

Listening to Li Yonghu calling Qin Feng's little brother, Li Yongqian couldn't help saying: "Second brother, Boss Qin's teacher is Mr. Qi Gong..."

Qi Gong is recognized as No. 1 in the identification of jade calligraphy and painting in China. As his disciple, Qin Feng has a very high seniority in the industry.

Yangmei's jade processing is not only for jadeite, Hetian jade and other domestic nephrite jade are also processed into jewelry here, and then sold to all parts of the country, so Qi Gong's reputation is also good here.

So don't look at Li Yonghu's age is much older than Qin Feng, but it's really inappropriate for him to call Qin Feng by the title of little brother.

"Mr. Qi's disciple? Presumptuous, presumptuous."

After hearing Li Yongqian's words, Li Yonghu quickly arched his hands and said, "Boss Qin, those who don't know are not to blame. Mr. Qi is in good health? I saw him once in the capital last year..."

"The teacher's health is fine, thank you, Boss Li, for your concern."

Hearing Li Yonghu's greetings, Qin Feng also felt a little emotional. From the "True Jade Workshop" in the capital, to the collection of jade in Luo City, and then to the rough jadeite market in front of him, he has really benefited a lot from Qi Gong.

"Come on, Boss Qin, I have two pieces of good material here, see if you are interested."

Although those who sell rough jadeite do not gamble themselves, they must also master a lot of gambling skills. They divide their rough stones into grades and give different prices.

The good material Li Yonghu mentioned was hidden under the table. It was a black black sand rough stone the size of a basketball. There was a clearly visible python pattern on it, running through the whole rough stone.

The python pattern in the rough jadeite is actually the bulging shape of the jade on the stone surface.

Rough stones with this kind of surface often have high-quality emeralds cut out of them, so Li Yonghu treasured this stone and hid it under the table.
