The exhibition hall is very simple, not everything is on display, and there is a brochure on the side, where you can see what the auction items are.
And the ones on display are basically only the most precious ones.
“My dear, why are there so few Chinese cultural relics?”
He Yuhao looked around and found that there were not many Chinese cultural relics on display, but the main target of this visit, “Five Bulls”, was among them.
After just one glance, they knew that this was true. Many foreigners left after a glance at the object that opened the door, but what they didn’t know was that it was a work of the Tang Dynasty!
And it’s also coloured, on jute paper!
It is extremely difficult to preserve it, let alone that heaven-defying painting skill!
The artistic component is second, mainly the archaeological component!
The Five Bulls are the earliest and oldest painting on paper in existence!
There is no author’s seal or name stamp on the painting, but there are various collectors’ seals on the back!
There is Zhao Mengfu, as I said before, super boss!
Fourteen collectors including Kong Kebiao, Xiang Yuanbian, Hongli and Jinnong!
Each of them is a well-known existence.
In history, from the beginning of “Qinghe Painting and Calligraphy Boat”, to “Coral Net”, “Yu’s Calligraphy and Painting Inscriptions and Postscripts”, “Liuyanzhai Notes”, “Grand View Records”, “Shiqu Baoji Sequel”, etc., there are records of this picture The existence of the painting is an absolute masterpiece.
When Han Hong created this painting, he actually used cows to replace people, which contained strong personal emotions. These five cows were actually five brothers in their family, including himself.
Different shapes, can be said to be very perfect.
For most people, Chinese paintings of animals and humans are actually not liked to see, because they are not “real” enough. To put it bluntly, they are not realistic enough. Compared with the western ones, they are indeed unsatisfactory, but I have to talk about landscapes. Like, that Chinese painting crushes everything.
This painting of the Five Bulls is rare in Chinese painting. It is a realistic painting style. Although it is not as realistic as sketches, this painting style is truly a miracle in the country!
……
After the visit, He Yuhao frowned!
“What’s wrong?”
Lou Xiaoe asked worriedly, and everyone else looked at He Yuhao worriedly!
For fear that He Yuhao would say some bad news!
“Our money may not be enough. In the past two hours, I saw at least 20 brokers!”
“A broker?”
Lou Xiao’e even the other people are confused, obviously they don’t understand!
“To put it bluntly, it is an agent. People may not be in Xiangjiang, but in other countries, but they conduct remote auctions by telephone. Such people… often have deep pockets!”
And what’s even more terrifying is that because this kind of person is not here, he will not give face to anyone, and he is the most difficult opponent at the auction.
Generally speaking, everyone knows each other at the auction, so they give each other face, youBuy this, then I won’t bid.
But no matter who it is on the phone, because you don’t know who he is, you can shout unscrupulously. Of course, the people in the auction house know, otherwise, who do you have to ask for money?
Therefore, this kind of person is particularly difficult to deal with. Many people who come to the scene to buy treasures hate this kind of person the most.
Even, to a large extent, this kind of person is actually the trustee of the auction house.
After all, a phone call is a waste of phone bills, but it can increase the price of the lot.
“Then what should I do? How much money you brought, I can only provide more than one million!”
Lou Xiaoe directly gave He Yuhao all her bottom line.
He Yuhao shook his head. Right now, he has no choice but to take one step at a time. Time is running out, only ten days, and He Yuhao is not sure…
“Um?”
He Yuhao was about to say that he was not sure when he suddenly saw a street.
“What’s that place?”
“Antique Street, a place dedicated to selling antiques, there are still quite a few people in Xiangjiang!”
Actually not much…
He Yuhao experienced it personally in his previous life. The people of Xiangjiang are so fast-paced that they don’t have time to play antiques. For them, the charm of antiques is not as exciting as the red and green lines on stocks!
However, He Yuhao keenly heard a voice.
The sound of friction!
Not the messy kind, but the sound of dead sandpaper and stones rubbing.
This is……
“Follow me, I’ve figured out a way to make money!”
He Yuhao directly led the people towards that direction. A group of people looked at He Yuhao blankly, and one of them screamed, “Make money? Does he mean making money?”
Subconsciously, the man covered his heart, and there was a bank check in it!
When I came to the small alley, the box was actually quite wide, and three or four people could walk side by side. The ground was laid out in the style of a Jiangnan alley. There were all kinds of shops open all around, but He Yuhao didn’t look at anything. It’s super inside to go!
“Slow down, wait for me!”
Lou Xiao’e and the others followed quickly, but only after walking a full 100 meters did they reach the place!
“Guanshiju, what are you doing here, what is this for? Selling stones?”
Lou Xiao’e didn’t understand it yet, but the people around her were still knowledgeable. Seeing the pile of stones placed in the middle of the shop, she suddenly exclaimed, “He Yuhao is the same…cough, He Yuhao, you want to gamble on stones. ?”
“Gambling stones? No, you can’t gamble!”
Lou Xiaoe immediately exploded when she heard it. In Xiangjiang, too many people died of gambling bankruptcy. They thought that the next door was the Royal Platform. The people who went there were really miserable. There was no winning at gambling. The god of gamblers is here, and in fact, it is essentially a thousand-year-old.
What kind of card changes, super powers, are just made up, although some can be calculated through mathematics, but how many people can really get money from the casino?
Therefore, Lou Xiao’e stopped He Yuhao very seriously.
“Don’t worry, trust me, I don’t need the country’s money, my own money!”
He Yuhao walked in and looked here. It is not easy to have gambling stones these days. There are actually jadeite mines in China, but they are very rare. Most of them are in Pyu!
There are so many jadeite mines over there!
I don’t know how many years it has been mining, but the mining is still not over!
And there have been gambling stones since ancient times, among which there is a piece of jade, which is also a gambling stone, and everyone knows it.
That is the He’s jade, the raw material of the jade seal of the country, which is obtained from gambling stones.
Gambling stones, what should I say, is essentially gambling, so I don’t recommend gambling stones at all. There will be opportunities in the future. If you buy a few hundred yuan and a thousand yuan, you should spend money to try it. Be sure not to gamble on stones!
Gambling is a thing, washing powder is terrible, because the dopamine secreted by gambling is dozens or even hundreds of times that of washing powder. Under such terrible circumstances, gambling is unbearable, and when you win, It will instantly secrete a lot of dopamine, this substance can make you feel happy, and it is not ordinary pleasure!
When you lose, you will instinctively seek such pleasure, and what is even more terrifying is to quit gambling. Once you lose dopamine, you want to seek such pleasure, but you will find that nothing can Much more joy than gambling can bring you.
Because dopamine is addictive!
Once you become addicted to gambling, it is actually more difficult to quit than smoking washing powder.
He Yuhao walked in and took a look around. The stone gambling industry here is almost the same as that of later generations, but stone cutting is still very primitive human cutting and polishing. To put it bluntly, it is a cutting machine or a human cutting machine!
To put it simply, just a bicycle, and then you pedal, a rotating blade on it, it will rotate rapidly, and then take the stone and cut it while adding water!
Water injection is due to frictional heat, which will cause high heat, and a lot of dust will be generated when rubbing. If one is not good, it will directly give you a dust explosion. I will ask you if you are afraid.
It’s not that there is none. At the same time, some people are stupid and use a hand-held cutting machine to cut the original, or the big one!
The results of it?
No water was added, and the temperature was too high. The blade overheated and broke, and then exploded. The person was shot through the head by the broken blade and left immediately.
There is also the use of horsetail and horsehair rope as a saw blade, and sand and water are continuously added. Sand increases friction, and water reduces temperature.degree, but very laborious!
In modern times, machines are generally used, but the cutting of machines is not accurate. Many public plates that sell raw materials have been cut by very good stone cutting masters, just like if you are in a casino, they will find you pleasing to the eye. The croupier comes to deal the cards.
There are many ways to cut gambling stones. The first one is to cut it. Cut it with a horizontal knife and cut it in two!
The second type is called rubbing. This type is rubbed in a little bit, just like removing the loose soil from the outside of the egg, and it is slowly polished.
The third type is called digging, which is usually cut first, and then slowly polished to slowly get out the entire jadeite.
Before jadeite is cut out, it is called rough stone, wool.
Generally, a large-scale place for selling rough stones is called Gongpan. There used to be several public houses in China, but “h, there are only two left now, and most people can’t get in.
He Yuhao began to check, and the rough stones here are sold according to “catties”, not “jin”, which is relatively half the price!
However, the weight of the stone is not light.
He Yuhao picked up a rough stone that was only about 40 centimeters long and 20 centimeters high, and it weighed as much as 20 kilograms, or 10 kilograms!
Excuse me, what is the concept of 40 cm long?
Let’s put it this way, the length of a mobile phone is about 15 centimeters!
The length of a standard pair of chopsticks is seven inches and six centimeters, about 25.8 centimeters!
Two OnePlus, probably a little shorter than your keyboard!
Is this stone big?
No, it’s actually quite small!
Of course, there are smaller ones, such as fist-sized ones, which are useless.
“These are all head coverings, but that’s fine. If I wiped out a skylight, I wouldn’t be able to afford it!”
The head covering material, also known as the skin covering material, means that there is no cut material, so you can’t see anything, and it doesn’t look as good as a pebble!
However, this is the biggest feature of gambling stones!
Open the skylight, just cut a small piece, you can see what is inside the wool, but the readability is not small, because many jadeites may be green!
It just so happened that the piece near the window you opened had emeralds, and then it was gone!
This is very strange, and there are many.
He Yuhao searched carefully and found a piece of 5kg, a little bigger than a fist!
The price is 20 Hong Kong dollars a kilogram!
“Just play once, go out, continue, don’t go out, leave!”
He Yuhao had already made up his mind, so no one could change it. He took out 100 Hong Kong dollars and bought it directly.
“Boss, do you cut it yourself or do we help you cut it?”
So small, it must be a one-size-fits-all solution. If you rub it yourself, it will take a long time!
“I’ll clean it myself. How much does it cost to use your machine?”
“Sandpaper 20, grinding wheel 50!”
He Yuhao took out 50 yuan directly, but a person beside him said directly, “Boss, you don’t need to be so embarrassing, 20 yuan for a piece of sandpaper? It costs 50 yuan to use a grinding wheel? It’s not 20 yuan. A stack of 10 sandpapers, 50 bucks a blade?”
The grinding wheel is a blade, in fact, it is also a whetstone. It is very rough, but if it rotates quickly, it can even cut off by hand!
The frictional force is very large, which is the best for “rubbing” materials, but you have to be careful, because you want to make the grinding wheel rotate. This rotation, if your hand accidentally touches it, will basically hurt your muscles and bones. , the skin is open and the flesh is broken, and in severe cases, the bones may be directly seen, or even the bones are broken.
Because the grinding wheel is inherently heavy, after all, jadeite has to be polished!
There are few people now, but some people are driving. He Yuhao called an accompanying person to help hold the water pipe.
“Just water it!”
“it is good!”
The companion nodded, and then He Yuhao started here, and soon stepped on the grinding wheel, and the grinding wheel spun rapidly, and then the next second, He Yuhao’s stone carefully leaned over, and the next second, a harsh sound came, This piece of He Yuhao’s stone began to be gently wiped out.
After a while, He Yuhao suddenly stopped.
“it’s foggy!”
Mist is a layer of worship between the skin and the flesh. The thinner the better, the more transparent the better. You can understand it as jade that has not grown.
“It’s foggy!”
Everyone’s eyes widened too. It was foggy, so it was very likely that emeralds would emerge from below.
Hearing the fog all around, many people gathered around, but seeing such a small piece of wool in He Yuhao’s hand, he immediately shook his head.
It doesn’t make any sense, it’s too small!
One knife to live, one knife to die, one knife to sackcloth!
However, He Yuhao just didn’t cut it. It was such a small piece. If there was anything to be cut, it didn’t take long for the sandpaper to wipe it off.
He Yuhao first wiped the outer layer, and then slowly began to go deeper. Suddenly, under the wash of the water column, a green light flashed in He Yuhao’s eyes!
“There is!”
“Look at it!”
Everyone came together, He Yuhao dashed under the water, a pure green light made everyone’s eyes widen!
“It’s green, take a look, look at the seed, look at the color!”
Seed means the head of water. Seed is good to cover up three ugliness. It means good jadeite. The transparency should be high. As the saying goes, the bracelet depends on the seed and the pendant depends on the color.
For this stone, don’t even think about getting a bracelet, but the ring face and pendant are still fine.
“Green, emerald?”One person suddenly exclaimed, but soon everyone said something was wrong!
It means emerald!
“Alas, if there is no emerald, it is Zhengyang green!”
Zhengyang Green?
Everyone has no loss. Emeralds are hard to come by. This Zhengyang green is enough.
To say that this jadeite, the highest-level “water head”, is a kind of glass, and its light transmittance is almost the same as that of glass.
Secondly, it is color, the more correct the color, the better, green is the most, and then there are other colors, green is called emerald, red is called jade!
And is the origin of jadeite.
“It’s a pity, I didn’t get the emeralds, the water is pretty good!”
Everyone went to worship Buddha one after another, and some even went home.
Actually, there is also a high-grade jade called Imperial Green!
However, in fact, imperial green is a combination of words. To put it simply, there is no such thing as imperial green in jadeite.
Green, that is, green, emerald, that is already the top one.
So what is Imperial Green?
It is emerald, plus the jadeite of the glass species, combined, the water head, the top, the color, the top, this is called imperial green!
And if other colors are at the top, and the stone is at the top, it also has its own name.
Imperial Green, Supreme Yellow, Purple Eyes, Smurfs, Blood Beauty, etc…
In fact, these are just gimmicks made by merchants. Later, there are other kinds of dragon stones. In fact, they are all gimmicks of merchants. It seems that there are really better emeralds than emperor green. That is impossible, emperor. Green has come to an end.
This one in front of me, Zhengyang Green, look carefully at the water head, it can’t reach the glass seed, nor the ice seed, this is the egg white seed!
“Egg white Zhengyang green!”
An old man glanced at it and shouted directly, and then suddenly firecrackers began to sound outside!
“Yo, you still have the habit of firing guns here!”
“It’s going up, so of course we’re going to fire a cannon!”
The old man said calmly, then pointed to the jade in He Yuhao’s hand, and asked, “Beautiful boy, can’t you come out?”
“I’ll take it out first!”
He Yuhao said calmly, and immediately started rubbing, wiping away the white fog outside. In less than ten minutes, a piece of emerald egg white Zhengyang green jade appeared in He Yuhao’s hands.
“Beautiful boy, whether to sell it or not, give me a nice word!”
“Out, whoever has the highest price gets it!”
He Yuhao shouted directly, and in an instant, a group of people began to bid.
There are too many jewelry stores in Xiangjiang.
The competition is too great!
Therefore, many stores are looking for various sources of goods!
There is no shortage of jadeite for sale at any time, and the price will only get higher and higher. Unlike diamonds, diamonds are one for laughing and the other is the cutting process. The value itself is actually not high, especially Yes, man-made diamonds are out now.
As for jadeite, it is a non-renewable resource, and it is brittle in itself. If one does not give up, it will be lost. Under such circumstances, the value of jadeite will increase with the wealth of human beings.
The price of He Yuhao’s jadeite quickly increased from 12,000 to 48,000, and finally stopped at 50,000!
“make a deal!”
He Yuhao nodded directly, this piece of jadeite is impossible to get a bracelet, but the jadeite is of perfect quality and can be directly carved into a jade plaque or pendant.
Fifty thousand!
“Buy one hundred and sell it for fifty thousand? You made fifty thousand all at once?”
The people around He Yuhao took a deep breath. He didn’t expect He Yuhao to have this ability!
“continue!”
Holding the check, He Yuhao calmly began to choose, and quickly selected four pieces of jadeite, each of which was not large, the largest being only 11 kilograms!
However, the price is very expensive, especially for a piece of 8 kilograms, which cost He Yuhao 3,000 yuan per kilogram, but this thing is worth it!
“Why is it so expensive?”
People around He Yuhao hurriedly asked, it was only 100 yuan just now, but now it’s 24,000 yuan?
“This is the material of Pagang. Pagang is the name of an emerald mine. The jade in this place is better than the jade from other jade mines, so it’s normal for the material here to be expensive!”
20 to 3000!
It’s not that I haven’t seen such material. He Yuhao has seen 1,200,000 kilograms of material in his last life!
Anyway, the final cost is all on the customer, and the jade industry cannot lose money because they will graft all the costs on the customer.
Loss?
How could it be a loss? If you don’t make money, it’s a loss!
He Yuhao immediately solved the three pieces of wool. It doesn’t seem to be particularly good, but the cost of 42,000 yuan has now increased more than ten times, and it has come directly to 730,000 yuan!
Come on, 730,000!
This time, everyone looked at He Yuhao in astonishment!
Is that how money is made in this city?
“Don’t worry about the last piece!”
The He Yuhao Society took a breath. It was the best piece from Li Li, the eye of the treasure, but the price was as high as 3,000 yuan per kilogram.
but……
“Come and see, it’s coming again, this is going to be cut!”
This was the only piece of jade that He Yuhao wanted to cut. He Yuhao put it on it carefully, fixed it, and then slowly started the cutting machine!
The cutting is very careful. The difference between big jade and small jade is that wearing jade can make more things.
This jadeite is only interesting when it is cut. Soon, a knife was cut, and a hole was cut out., no no no green!
“continue!”
The people around were looking at He Yuhao, and it was obvious that He Yuhao was still cutting!
Sure enough, keep cutting!
After all, He Yuhao is still a cook, so it seems that he is still capable of knife skills, and he is quite confident in his grasp of proportions.
With another knife, a piece of stone was cut off like a piece of bread.
“This is……”
The water rushed, and suddenly many people’s eyes widened, because what appeared in front of them was a scene full of greenery!
“Up!”
Everyone cheered suddenly, Lou Xiao’e and the others widened their eyes, they never expected that He Yuhao would actually open it up.
Then, after taking a closer look, I was surprised to find that there seemed to be something inside!
“There seems to be something in there!”
The big guy suddenly stopped cheering, is there something?
All of a sudden, everyone came over, and after a closer look, they found that it was an oolong.
“Hahaha, glutinous oil cyan silk!”
An old man laughed at a glance. The so-called “things” are actually “golden threads”, which are yellow strip-shaped filamentous objects deposited in jadeite.
“The oily green golden silk species has actually reached the waxy species in the water?”
All of a sudden, there is jubilation all around, because this is not easy!
First of all, this waxy species refers to transparency!
Here, we have to distinguish carefully, because water species, or kind of water, have a very great influence on jadeite.
The glass species is the highest, followed by the high ice species. This is the jadeite that is very close to the glass species!
Further down is the ice seed, which is obviously different from the glass seed!
Further down, there are ice glutinous seeds and glutinous seeds!
There are some more, so I won’t repeat them, because they are not worth much!
In this jadeite industry, there is a saying of “36 water, 72 beans (green), 108 blue”, but in fact, it is too complicated. Modern people have almost completely abandoned these expressions and retained some of the essence. , and nothing else.
As for the price of jadeite, not only has it not fallen, but it has risen because of abandoning these arguments, which must have been too complicated.
The piece of He Yuhao that was slowly escaped, the watery glutinous seed, the oily blue color, and the gold thread, this value is very high.
“Bosses, come out and make an offer!”
He Yuhao pointed at the jade and said loudly, and in an instant, countless bids appeared!
“100,000!”
“200,000!”
“350,000!”
“360,000!”
“380,000!”
“400000!”
The price keeps soaring, because this jadeite is big enough, weighing a full eight pounds, and more importantly, this jadeite is good, and if you can pull out a complete bracelet or something, that’s a good one.
Soon, the price kept rising. In fact, when it started at 100,000, the people around He Yuhao were already stunned. The asking price for a piece of jadeite was 100,000. How much would there be?
Sure enough, the price continued to soar, and in less than three minutes, it had reached the price of 740,000!
“It’s so high…”
Lou Xiaoe’s eyes widened. Her money is considered a super rich person in the mainland, but in Xiangjiang, it is nothing at all. The cash flow is only one million, and the rest is real estate and so on. In fact, it is not rich at all.
Real estate is actually only a small industry.
Now, the price of the entire jadeite has reached 780,000 yuan, and it continues to climb. Just as Lou Xiaoe spoke, the price went up again.
“Don’t worry, this can reach a million!”
“what?”
Lou Xiaoe looked at He Yuhao in disbelief!
Just as the words fell, a group of people rushed in, glanced at He Yuhao’s jade, and after asking the people around them, they immediately spoke!
“Lao Fengxiang, pay 890,000!”
“Chow Tai Fook, 950,000!”
“Xie Ruilin gave 1 million!”
The price has directly reached 1 million!
This%
The people around He Yuhao widened their eyes. They never imagined that the money would come so easily. The state only approved a total of 550,000 yuan, after deducting food, drinks, and air tickets. 530,000 are enough.
However, He Yuhao made several 530,000 yuan directly with one hundred Hong Kong dollars!
“Chou Sang Sang, 1.05 million!”
“Xie Ruilin, 1.1 million (good Zhao’s)!”
“1.13 million!”
“1.17 million!”
“1.19 million!”
“1.195 million!”
“what!”
The people around him booed for a while, and he didn’t know who was calling for 5,000 yuan!
“1.25 million!”
Chow Tai Fook directly called the reserve price!
“It’s lost, 1.25 million, nothing to earn!”
The representatives of the jewelry stores around them protested one after another. In fact, the number of 1.2 million has come to an end, but the number of 1.25 million has indeed come to an end.
This kind of mid-to-high-end jadeite is for performance purposes, attracting mid-to-high-end people, and the friends of such people who bring them to buy low-end jade are often the most profitable.
Jewelry industry will make profits, but in fact, how much profit is not their own decision?
“Isn’t it higher than 1.25 million?”
He Yuhao looked around, and since there was no more, He Yuhao nodded directly!
“The deal, 1.25 million, for Chow Tai Fook!”
“Thank you!”
After getting off the table, he took the check and glanced at it. After identifying it as genuine, he handed the jadeite to him.given to the other party.
“Thank you!”
“You’re welcome, haven’t you asked me yet?”
“He Yuhao!”
He Yuhao took out his business card and handed it to the other party. When the other party saw it, his eyes widened immediately!
“Sir is…”
“Yes, there will be a public auction in the future, call me!”
“Thank you!”
He Yuhao’s meaning is very simple. In the future, if there is a jadeite public auction or something, you can ask him to play with him. As for him, of course, he also reciprocates. As long as the price is right, he doesn’t mind selling it to Zhou Dafo!
With money, one hundred yuan, earning 50,000, spending 42,000, and earning 72+1.25 million!
A total of 1.978 million!
“Let’s go, I’ll take you to eat something delicious!”
There is no fun place in Xiangjiang now, and Disney is not open, so eating is the greatest pleasure!
The change of more than 8,000 is enough for He Yuhao and others!
And many people began to investigate He Yuhao. He Yuhao opened 5 pieces of jade in a row, and every piece was hit. This made some people think carefully!
But He Yuhao is not afraid. First of all, the place where He Yuhao lives is one of the safest places in the whole Xiangjiang. There are many foreigners. The local community in Xiangjiang dare not make trouble here!
Secondly, He Yuhao deliberately gave Chow Tai Fook a business card, just to tell some people that he came from the motherland, so that no one dared to toss.
You must know that Zhou Dafo has always dreamed of entering the mainland market, but unfortunately, he has never had the opportunity. Now is a good time to send out a good signal.
Time passed quickly, and He Yuhao didn’t go to gamble with stones anymore, which made everyone breathe a sigh of relief. The money was earned quickly, but he was worried.
In fact, He Yuhao’s gambling stone is very simple. His appraisal eye can see the news of jadeite. Of course, what jadeite is inside can’t be seen. He may know that there is jadeite, and the outline Daxiaochen.
Simply put, it’s the same as X-rays, but ordinary X-rays are invisible, but He Yuhao can!
It’s like opening the perspective.
The auction time is slowly approaching. He Yuhao is also playing in Xiangjiang. He has bought a lot of things. When the time comes, he will bring back everything for food and clothing. In fact, He Yuhao also likes a car, but this thing Imports require country consent and are now being asked.
One of the reasons for buying a car is that it is convenient to travel, and the other is that this car can pull goods!
Of course, the main thing is to facilitate travel!
