The businesswoman of the poor family is reborn

Chapter 151: Oolong Betting on Stones (1)
Mo Xiaoqian didn't expect that the "gambling" Su Wenli mentioned was not gambling with money, but gambling with stones.

I have seen this thing in my previous life, but I am not very proficient.The so-called gambling stones or gambling goods refer to jadeites that are wrapped in a layer of weathered skin when they are mined. It is impossible to know whether they are good or bad. The quality of jadeites can only be known after cutting.Generally, the true face of "Mount Lu" cannot be seen at a glance only from the appearance.There is no instrument that can quickly judge whether it is "precious jade" or "bad catkins" through this outer shell.Because selling is very risky and "exciting", it is called "gambling".

The sale of rough jadeite is the most mysterious transaction in the jewelry industry. There used to be a jargon in the jewelry industry: betting on stones is like betting on your life.If you win the bet, you will earn ten times and a hundred times, and you will become rich overnight; if you lose the bet, you will lose everything.Compared with stone gambling transactions, risky transactions such as stocks and real estate are tender and pale in comparison.

Mo Xiaoqian once read a book, which described it like this: "A stone worth tens of millions attracts countless greedy eyes, and many lives are killed for it. Does it bring wealth or disaster? The stone drools, and the jade will also bloom evil flowers. The stone-cleaning knife flashes, and what is cut is the stone, and what is seen is human nature. A madman buys, a madman sells, and there is a madman waiting!"

This is stone gambling!
A businessman brought a batch of rough stones and wool from Myanmar and Yunnan, which attracted many ambitious people to watch.Su Wenli is naturally an ambitious person, he is a wealthy person, and they even specially sent invitations to him, and specially left a batch of good materials for him.He had visited this store a few times and found that the goods there were not bad. He happened to see that Mo Xiaoqian was poor, so he eagerly introduced her to a new outlet.

Although Mo Xiaoqian didn't believe this guy's words, she was too poor and thought it would be okay to try, but her luck was too bad to turn things around, so she had no choice but to go back to her hometown to farm and get married.If you give up these years of hard work without trying it, no one will be reconciled.

It was evening when I went there, and there were many stone-like things outside the shop rented by the businessman, with ugly shapes and rough textures.As early as two days ago, when the woolen materials arrived, most of the good and outstanding goods were picked away, and some of the remaining high-quality rough stones and woolen materials were put in the house and scattered in the yard. The price difference between the inside and outside of the house Hundred and ten times.Shang Maoer saw that Mo Xiaoqian didn't look like a rich man, so he pointed to the messy stones in the yard and said, "Although this thing looks inconspicuous, if you're lucky, you can find good things. The most important thing is Yes, it’s much cheaper than the colorful stones outside!” While facing Su Wenli, he politely invited him to choose inside the room.

Su Wenli looked at Mo Xiaoqian, Mo Xiaoqian shrugged, she is indeed poor now, she can't afford the good materials in the house, and she doesn't have time to accompany him to pretend to be chic, she waved her hand, what do you like, we are not all the way People, each busy with their own.

Su Wenli didn't hold back with her, nodded, and went straight into the room.

In order to attract customers, before these raw wool stones are actually cut and processed, a piece will be cut on the edge of the stone to reveal some green.When these greens are cut open, if they are many watery and clear emerald greens, people will become rich overnight; if they are cut open, the essence is a piece of gray sand with green outside and white inside, and they will go bankrupt overnight.

A piece of raw jadeite has a colored skin and a very good surface. It is common to see green in the first cut, but it may disappear in the second cut.The quality of jadeite raw materials is erratic, and there is no fixed judgment mode. Even a piece of flawless jadeite that has been peeled off may have great changes after being cut. Therefore, the valuation of jadeite raw materials is very practical. Only by thinking more about buying and collecting more can you understand the law of jadeite prices.

The stones scattered in the yard are found in both new and old factories.The emeralds produced in the old factory have very thin skins, and most of the jadeites produced in the new factories have no skin.The thickness and thinness of the skin mainly depend on the degree of weathering, and the higher the degree of weathering, the thicker the skin.

In fact, it is very simple to measure the quality of a piece of jade.The first is its hardness and density. The hardness of jade is very high, generally reaching 7 degrees on the Mohs scale. The jargon in the jade world is called "species". The "kind" is good, that is, the hardness is high.People who sell jade will also use a piece of glass as an experiment, scratching their own jadeite stones on the glass, and as a result, deep scratches are left on the glass, but the jadeite stones are not damaged at all.The hardness of good jadeite is almost the same as that of diamond.The second is transparency, which is called "water head" in jargon. The higher the transparency, the higher the quality.The best jade is like glass, and the jade circle calls it a glass bottom.

Most of the rough stones in the yard are ordinary stone-like things.There are also many people who shuttle among them, sometimes beating with tools, or lying on the rough stone to study the texture.

Mo Xiaoqian is not very good at these things. After observing those rough stones for a long time, and then looking at those "flower card materials" that were cut into pieces, she felt dizzy and couldn't figure out why. She was very frustrated and found that this bet Shi, the profit is big, the risk is also big, it is really difficult to rely on it to find money!

But she didn't respond, but the bell inside the bracelet, which had been sticking out, was extremely excited.He murmured very energetically and excitedly: "I understand, master, look at this piece, although there is no green on the surface, but the lines are absolutely top-quality! This one has a lot of green at the opening, but the margin is actually empty, and there is no green inside. The real thing..."

Mo Xiaoqian listened to the command of the bell speechlessly, and went to find those stones one by one.Anyway, she is not good at it, believe it or not, you have to try, you can't expect Su Wenli to choose her, right?Rather than trusting that wolf who is more cunning than a fox, she might as well trust this extremely lazy little Q from Homeland—after all, she once found out that the guardian of the bracelet has many unknown abilities when searching for information on the Internet!
Holding a pile of rough stones to check out with the boss, Mao Er's eyes were big, so he hurriedly asked her: "Do you want all of these?" These are all stones that don't see green or are obviously bluffing green, and they are no different from waste products... This woman wants everything, is she not sick?Spending money to buy stones, there are so many idiots these days, do you really think it's easy to be a rich man?When the stone is cut later, I hope she doesn't cry.

"Why don't I choose them?" Mo Xiaoqian snorted, but she was also very disturbed.

"Okay, since you insist, it's naturally good. You are a newcomer, and I'll give you some discount. I took a look at these rough stones and divided them into three parts. The small one is [-] yuan; the middle one is six yuan. One hundred, this big one, one thousand. The price here is the most affordable, and the price here is not as cheap as mine.”

Mo Xiaoxi sneered, picked up the smallest piece of rough stone, and looked at him: "It's just three hundred yuan for this thing? Uncle, you are in the rough stone business, so you naturally know whether it is good or bad. Judging by its texture, it doesn't look like It's a lucky one, even you said it yourself, it's no different from a waste product, and a waste product is worth three hundred?" He threw it away, turned around and left, "I heard from Young Master Su that you are a kind person, so it turns out that you are nothing more than that, let's go to the next house Let's see."
