"Brother, are you unruly?" Kong Si couldn't stand it any longer, "For those in this line of work, you have to be on a first-come, first-served basis, right? What do you mean by meddling in the woolen stuff my buddy is looking at?"

"It's none of your business!" Yi Xiaofang was worried that he had no excuse, so he rushed forward, pointed at Kong Si and cursed.

"Damn it!" Kong Si stepped forward and was about to make a move. Wu Chen hurriedly grabbed him. This place has penetrated into the hinterland of the market. Although it is well connected, there is a large flow of people. Dry fights have also come to this market and then engage in it.

"Boss, I'll offer 60! If this buddy wants 120 million, give it to him." Thinking of the green emerald eyes, Wu Chen felt a little helpless. It is estimated that it is a fraction in the eyes of the other party.

As for why he didn't call out a price, that Young Master Liang who cheated him is not so brain-dead, if the price is finished, that Young Master Liang repents and doesn't follow the price, where can he find so much money?

Sure enough, Young Master Liang snorted lightly, and said to the boss: "That's it, I want it." Although he is arrogant, he is not a reckless person. But the old man in the company is old, the old man trusts him very much, besides, so what if he passed?Looking at Wu Chen's poor and depressed look, he felt a kind of satisfaction, this is the superiority of class!

"This..." Although the boss was happy in his heart, the price was far more than what he had in mind, but he still looked at Wu Chen with some embarrassment on his face.

The Pingzhou jade market is extremely regulated, and is managed by a lot of people from the government, industry associations, chambers of commerce, market management, etc. Even these shop vendors also consciously maintain their reputation. There are really few people who dare to break the rules on the surface. Today's matter is big or small. If Wu Chen complains to himself, it will be a trouble. He doesn't have the face of Young Master Liang.

"Hehe, it's okay, the one with the higher price gets it." Although Wu Chen was depressed, he was still very rational. He clapped his hands and said to Kong Si, "Let's go." Kong Si stared at Liang Guanghua coldly, then turned and followed Wu Chen. Morning went.

"Hmph, what the hell! Poor ghost!" Yi Xiaofang smiled proudly. Liang Guanghua was not so comfortable. He was glared at by Kong Si, and felt that the murderous aura was coming, and there was a panic in his heart, but he He has always been proud and arrogant, so naturally he won't show it.

"That broken stone is really worth that much money?" The two walked out to the exit on the other side of the trading center. Looking at the heat wave outside, they didn't want to go out, so Kong Si asked Wu Chen suspiciously.

A broken rock the size of a football actually costs more than 100 million. He wondered if Wu Chen deliberately tricked those two guys. extreme.

"Hehe, that's a good piece of material. Don't talk nonsense here. Don't you just point your nose and scold people." Wu Chen didn't think there was anything wrong with it. In a market economy, supply and demand determine prices, and prices determine transactions. , although the feeling of being "robbed" by others is really not very pleasant, but the law of the weak has always been the same since ancient times. If you want to protect your own rights, you can only make yourself stronger. He is not the kind who does not recognize the reality and only cares about complaining people.

Now is not the time to be depressed, so hurry up and find out if there are any omissions you can pick up.After the experience last time and just now, he is still quite confident in his eyesight. The only shortcoming is that he still doesn't have enough knowledge about jadeite and gambling stones. Let's accumulate it slowly.

On the left side of the exit, there is a large woolen shop. There are many people picking and choosing. Wu Chen and Kong Si also walked in and found that the shop has a larger space. There are many stones, and the ground in several corners is also full of stones. There are cutting and grinding machines of different sizes on both sides, which looks a bit like a library.

In the middle of the store there is a big log coffee table, which is full of kung fu tea sets. A young man who looks like a boss is dripping tea leisurely. He nodded and smiled, and answered a few words.

Not to mention Kong Si, even Wu Chen is very envious of this leisurely posture. He thinks that when he has money, he will open a wool shop like this. It is much stronger. I didn't know what to do after resigning before, but now I seem to have found a direction, and I am full of motivation immediately, so I moved over.

"Hehe, just take a look." Seeing someone coming again, the young man raised his head and laughed. There was a row of wooden shelves behind him, and there were more than ten stones on it, which should be relatively good wool.Kong Si walked over and saw that many of them were cut into small pieces, touched a piece and asked Wu Chen, "Is this a half-gamble?"

"Hehe, are you two newcomers to the industry?" The boss got closer, and after making tea, he turned his head and asked with a smile.

"Hehe, I haven't met before, I don't know much about it, I came here with my brother today." Kong Si saw that he was timid, and he didn't pretend to be B, "I'm a straightforward person, if I don't speak well, I hope you don't take offense. .”

"Hehe, where is it? Come, let's have a cup of tea." The boss was also very happy to see Kong Si's straightforwardness. He asked the two to sit down and chatted for a while. It turned out that the boss's name was Xia Ziming, and he was from Chaoshan Yangmei's side. , The family specializes in woolen materials, and the business is relatively large. The family business is mainly in Yangmei, and the business is also extended to Pingzhou. He is the second child in the family, so he was sent to take charge of the business here.

Xia Ziming learned that Wu Chen was also from his old family, so he was very affectionate. He chatted nonsense while drinking Kung Fu tea. Wu Chen praised the tea when he saw that it was good. There are also people who are used to drinking Dahongpao from Fuhai Province, which belongs to the oolong tea family anyway. Xia Ziming is actually very hardworking, but he is the second son. When we chatted, I was immediately refreshed.

After chatting for a while, Kong Si asked Xia Ziming for advice on betting on stones. It turns out that there is no machine that can see through the inside of this jadeite wool, so it all depends on luck and experience. Guessing its internal structure, such as its characteristics, is just a matter of probability. Before it is cut out, no one is 100% sure.

Generally, stones are divided into two types. Those that have not been touched at all are called full stones, such as the ones that are cut out to open a window and rubbed off a little stone skin, but whether they are opened or rubbed, they are all for exposing the inside. This is called semi-gambling, and it is generally only handled in this way when you have a relatively large amount of wool. Otherwise, if you open the window and have nothing, it is not as valuable as full gambling.

"You can see the texture inside, so why bet?" Kong Si was very disapproving.

"That's not necessarily true. Let's talk about this piece of wool. Don't look at the incision. It looks like the water is good, but who knows what's inside? It's still a bet, but it's just a bet on the emerald inside. Field and size."

Xia Ziming said while pointing to the gambling stone that Kong Si touched just now, "Besides, everyone plays differently, people like you are just playing occasionally, they like to gamble a lot, and life and death are determined by one shot. Those who make jewelry have a rigid demand for raw materials, so they prefer these half-gambling materials."

"Well, that's right, it's just like antiques. A fool like Wu Chen likes to go around street stalls to pick up leaks. Although the probability is small and the risk is high, once you find a leak, the profit is also great. Rich people are even more interested in collecting or museums. I like those large-scale auctions, the prices are extremely expensive, but the probability of encountering fake goods is much smaller." Kong Si immediately drew inferences from one instance, and by the way, hurt Wu Chen.

"Hehe, brother Xia, let's just talk about this one, how much will it cost?" Wu Chen didn't care, and asked Xia Ziming for advice with the half bet.

He had already quickly looked through the piece of wool just now, and he knew why it was called a half-baked material. Except for the piece of green that was wiped out, the inside of this piece was full of broken white and green. Scrap, whoever buys it will be unlucky, but I have to admire the one who opened the window for this stone, he is definitely a master!

"This piece?" Xia Ziming pondered for a moment. In fact, he was very familiar with the dozen or so pieces of good stuff. It was just that the businessman's habit of not knowing the bottom line made him think for a while, but seeing Wu Chen and the two of them dressed like they didn't look rich. Humans shouldn't be interested in this, anyway, it's just a chat, so it doesn't matter.

"This one is doing very well. Looking at the window, if there is still green in it, it should be a golden silk seed. Looking at the pine flowers on the stone skin, from the beginning to the end, it is very likely that there is a large piece of emerald inside. The whole piece It shouldn’t be a problem to take out the materials and make a few pairs of bracelets, and the estimated value is about 200 million.”

Wu Chen took a deep breath, is this a half-gamble?With a background in finance, he applied Xia Ziming's valuation method. I'm afraid this piece can only be made into a few small pendants, and it's not bad if it can sell for tens of thousands!Kong Si raised his own question: "It looks green, so how could it be the golden silk seed?" As the name suggests, the golden silk seed must be yellow or brown no matter what.

"Hehe, golden silk is just a name for the texture of jadeite, and it has nothing to do with gold. It refers to the bright emerald green of jadeite distributed in a silky shape, which is the so-called 'color into silk', which is divided into smooth silk, Random threads, flakes, etc., if there are black streaks in the emerald green, they are also called black threads, and they are arranged in parallel to each other. It can be clearly seen that the green appears intermittently along a certain direction. Of course, the green strips can be thick or thin.

Generally speaking, the ground of gold silk species should be transparent or translucent, with fine texture and less cracks and cotton lines. If you identify it in detail, the mineral crystal particles of this kind of jadeite are slightly thicker, and can be recognized with the naked eye as columnar or Grainy crystal profile with a metallic crisp sound when struck. "

Xia Ziming made Kong Si ask a smile, and patiently explained to them: "The quality of gold silk jadeite depends on the color and luster of the green strips, the proportion of the green strips, and the thickness of the texture. Color Thick strips, thin and dense green filaments occupy a large proportion of the area, and the colors are relatively bright, of course, the value is high, on the contrary, the color strips are sparse, or the green filaments are intermittent and light-colored, which is much cheaper.”

What he said made Kong Si's face blush, and Wu Chen also laughed a few times, but to be honest, this kind of exchange gave him a lot of insight.Now he humbly asked for advice. Although Xia Ziming didn't gamble, he knew a lot after being in this business for a long time and worked hard. The three chatted happily while drinking tea.
