Chapter 156
Now everyone no longer wants to make fun of it, but instead they all look envious.
Just hitting the surface of this palm-sized jade, the stone has soared into the sky!
The color and texture of this jadeite, except for Zhao Laoer, Zheng Bing, four soldiers, and Fujimoto Takashi and Ito, the others were Zhou Bo's jewelry merchants. Although they were not considered top experts, they were definitely not comparable to half a bucket of water like Zhou Xuan. Judging from the surface of this jadeite, the size of a palm, it was very outstanding. The water head was very sufficient. The surface seemed to be dripping, and it seemed wet. But when you touch it with your hand, you will know that it was not water, and it felt very moist. There was a real good jade, but there was only one thing that the remaining stone was only about ten parts thick after the jadeite appeared, which was the other side, on the left. In theory, the thickness of this jade was probably only four or five parts thick, and this piece was not big. Although the texture was good, it was not big, so the price was naturally lower.
Zhou Bo's eyes were almost glaring. Although this piece was not big, it was of the best quality glass floor. Even for this piece of block, the price was at least worth more than five million. Unexpectedly, everyone thought it was a piece of waste stone, but they just solved something worth millions!
Zhou Bo's heart felt like something was pulling up the intestines and dragging it down. He felt so uncomfortable. He gave it to others for a few million yuan for a thousand yuan. This was what Zhou Xuanqiang wanted to give it to him. According to his initial idea, it was given to them for nothing, but although he collected 1,000 yuan, he was useless to care about it?
Old Master Zhou was both surprised and happy. He was surprised that he still lost his eyes with his old experience. However, it was not strange to hit the eyes in gambling stones. Of course, he was happy that he cut out such bright colored jade. Although Tengchong is a distribution center for jade wool materials, very few people can truly solve the best jade.
This is related to the crazy quarrying in Myanmar in the past decade. The more jade is, the less it is mined. It is an ore and cannot grow. Moreover, its formation requires very specific conditions. According to scientists' research, the formation of jade must be formed at 10,000 atmospheres and a relatively low temperature, at least below minus 200 to 300 degrees Celsius. We know that the earth goes from the surface to the deeper, the higher the temperature and the greater the pressure. However, since jade is crystallized under low temperature and high pressure, it is certainly impossible to be in the deeper part. So where does the high pressure come from?
This high pressure is formed by the extrusion pressure caused by the movement of the earth's crust. Any area with jade deposits distributed is a zone with strong movement of the earth's crust.
Another factor is that wherever jade is found to be formed, there are chemical components of igneous rocks containing sodium feldspar invading the body of sodium feldspar. Therefore, it can be inferred that jade is formed by the removal of silicon by the rocks containing sodium feldspar under low temperature and high pressure.
If you want to become a jadeite with extra-grade jadeite, you must meet the following conditions. The surrounding rock of the jade must be high-magnesium, high-calcium, low-iron rock. The jade produced in this environment is purer, with less iron so that the bottom does not get gray. Although it is low-iron, there is still iron. The jadeite must be very pure and free of impurities. It must also be generated under strong reduction conditions, that is, in the reduction environment. Because in an oxygen-deficient environment, it will form magnetite and precipitate without entering the crystal lattice of the jadeite, which can correct the jadeite green. Furthermore, it must have the geological effect after the jadeite is produced and many strong hydrothermal activities to transform the jadeite.
The jadeite is made with a green, good water, and pure bottom. The jadeite coloring process is accompanied by hydrothermal activities, which is a coloring process with different intensity in multiple periods. Moreover, it slowly decomposes into coloring elements of chromium ions. It takes a long time to be at 150-300℃. The optimal temperature is around 212℃. The chromium ions can enter the crystal lattice evenly. Under this condition, the jadeite green produced is very uniform. After completely generating the special jadeite, there cannot be large geological structure movement, otherwise cracks of different sizes and directions will be generated, which will affect the quality.
It’s just that these conditions are difficult to meet at the same time, which is why the special-grade jade is extremely rare.
As the only place of jadeite, Myanmar has scarce resources. In the past decade, it has been the most popular time in the world. The price has soared to the sky, and the special jade has reached a terrifying sky-high price. Myanmar's jade merchants are also mining even more crazily, and their resources are almost dry up, so it is even more difficult to find a special jadeite!
Zhou Bo's factory originally did not take over the old pit mines in Myanmar, so the possibility of producing jade is naturally less, and the possibility of producing top-quality jade is even smaller. For example, the piece of jade that was solved on site today is probably not big at present, but it is a glass-based type. Even if it is a little smaller, it is also valuable.
Of course, Master Zhou will not cut the knife again at this time. Generally, after cutting out green, the customers will have a price for sale. For example, the stone of Zhao Laoer, Master Zhou just cut out the green with one knife, but the surface of the jade. He just cut it to the point that it did not hurt the jade, and the jade showed its true body intact. I won’t mention this luck, but the real body is revealed, which is an increase in the price!
Zhao Laoer walked up to take a look and asked, "Is jade here?" He turned his head and smiled at Zhou Xuan, "Brother's baby, my hand is gold, stone is jade, and a woman is the best!"
Zhou Xuan looked at Zhao Laoer with a smile, but he secretly glanced at Fujimoto Takashi. This guy stared at the incision and looked at him without turning his eyes.
At this time, a merchant smiled and said to Zhao Laoer: "Brother, you are a piece of material, haha, I think it's not too big. Do you intend to take action?" He smiled and added: "I'll give you four million!"
Zhao Laoer smiled and was about to joke. It was so easy to produce jade, so he had to move a few more stones, but then he heard the merchant say "four million". After staying for a while, he remembered what four million meant and what it was, and when he stood, he fell down with a "bang"!
Zhou Xuan was both angry and funny. Zhao Laoer didn't know the actual value of this jade, and bragging and spanking was very good, but when he heard that someone paid four million, his true colors were finally revealed!
When did he see four million? Although he has gained some knowledge after Zhou Xuan these days, he has never been exposed to the concept of millions. After all, he can't help but fall.
However, Zhou Xuan would not really annoy Zhao Laoer. If he had been the same as Zhao Laoer, if he had made money in the period when he had just obtained ice gas, his expression would be no different from that of Zhao Laoer.
But Takashi Fujimoto and Kinji Ito were shocked!
These people will never be doing a show, or like a child player, this is four million cash. Although they have no experience in gambling stones, he can still see the appearance of jade on the surface of the cut, which is a good thing, but it is worth so much money, but it is really unexpected. One thousand yuan in a blink of an eye, it turned into four million. You know, he and Ito Nie-e deceived several places, and they only got four million. They were frightened and worried for a few months, but it was better than this kid who accidentally picked up a broken stone and made a fortune of four million!
Fujimoto's heart suddenly swelled up. After all, he and Kinji Ito were both gamblers, but they lost the bet before, but now they have seen a comeback and make a fortune, and they don't have to worry about the opportunity to get rich. How can they not be happy?
Zhou Xuan had been secretly paying attention to the two Japanese devils, Fujimoto, and now he was like this. He felt relieved. He thought he had no chance, but he didn't expect that Zhao Laoer accidentally moved out the only jade-cushioning stone and made the two Japanese devils hook again. This was really a matter of planting flowers but not being able to grow, and a matter of planting willows and willows!
Zhao Lao Er fell down and quickly got up again. Although his face turned red, he tried hard to calm down. He stared at Zhou Xuan and said, "Brother, look..."
Zhou Xuan smiled slightly and said to Master Zhou: "Master Zhou, please continue to decoct stones."
Zhou Xuan's words undoubtedly showed everyone that this piece of wool will only continue to be removed without replacing it.
The merchant was a little sorry and said, "Brother, the remaining wool material area is not large, and it is not very likely to solve the large jade. It is a good thing for you to take action at this time. Let me add another million, how about five million?"
Zhao Lao Er's teeth were chewed and almost wanted to agree regardless of everything. Five million, how long will he get five million in his life? But this opportunity is really right in front of him. Brother, brother, brother, you just agree!
But Zhou Xuan was unmoved and waved his hand and said, "Old Master Zhou, please rub the stones and wipe it directly from the skin of the wool on the left."
Zhou Xuan knew that the remaining wool material was almost the thin layer of skin, and the shape was round. No matter how you cut it or how you use the knife, it would hurt the jade, and you could only use the method of rubbing stones.
He didn't argue with the merchant, because he understood that ordinary people would probably not be big at this time, and five million was indeed not low. The merchant did not completely pay a false price and took it back. He asked a master craftsman to make some jade pieces, and the value would be around six or seven million. In this way, the profit was not very large.
Of course, it is Zhou Xuan. If it were someone else, he would never take the risk of wiping stones. If it was smaller than the shapes that appeared outside, it would not be worth five million. Being able to take action at five million is actually something smart people do.
However, Zhou Xuan is not an ordinary person. His ice gas is an anomaly generated in this world. It was detected that the jade in the wool material, except for the stones on the surface layer, was full of solid jade inside. It was just a bit at the bottom, which was of ice. This piece was more than twice as big as the cutout on the surface!
Fujimoto was very excited. He called the businessman who was bidding, and also called the silly for Zhao Laoer and Zhou Xuan. The people on both sides were fools. One knew there was a risk, but he wanted to continue betting. While he could make 5 million steadily, he refused to sell it!
Ito Jinji even clenched his fists and stared at him so much that he felt uncomfortable. Unfortunately, this piece of wool was not theirs!
Although Zhao Laoer was also beating wildly, Zhou Xuan did not agree and he didn't say anything. It's a pity that his brothers did not agree. Even if the price would be reduced later, he would let him go. Given his wealth and Zhou Xuan's character, Zhao Laoer knew that Zhou Xuan would never regret what he said. He would not want the stone worth no matter how much it is.
To be honest, although Master Zhou was out of sight, he had to follow what he thought, it would be the best time to take action now, but Zhou Xuan insisted on continuing to calcify the stone. The owner of the stone did not agree, so there was nothing he could do.
Takashi Fujimoto couldn't help but curse, "Madmen, they are all madmen!" However, this was said in Japanese, and there was no third person who could understand it except Ito Kinji.
Zhou Bo stared at the stone and regretted his intestines! He saw a fortune worth millions of dollars flew into the hands of the stupid second brother, and he picked it up as garbage!
Master Zhou didn't say anything anymore, took the wool to the fine grinding wheel. According to what Zhou Xuan said, he first rubbed the stone with a fine grinding wheel from the round outer skin on the left. In the sizzling sound, the fine grinding wheel grinded off the thin layer of skin on the outer surface, and the green color was exposed. Master Zhou slowly wiped it along the semicircular appearance.
After about half an hour, the surface layer on the left was roughly rubbed out. Except for the shells on the front and back sides that did not move, the left was rubbed out and the right was cut out, and the rough shape of this piece of jade came out!
This is half the size of what everyone estimated at the beginning. Although it did not really change, the merchant was also paying attention to Master Zhou's movements, and his heart kept beating, and his mood was indescribable.
On the one hand, he thought that the material was being bet correctly. If he really bet, he would still want to bet even higher and would never want to fall. On the other hand, he thought that he would be small and that Zhao Laoer and Zhou Xuan would regret not selling it at five million!
But the result was that he was both happy and disappointed. He was happy that he had a bet right. The jade inside was larger and more valuable than he thought. He was disappointed that it was impossible for Zhou Xuan and Zhao Laoer to regret it!
Now it's just a rough idea. After cutting off the extra stones in front and back, and rubbing them roughly, this process is simple, but it's time-consuming and tiring. It's a tangled work. It takes at least several hours. If you want to polish it completely, it will take at least one week, which is still fast.
But it is undeniable that no matter how hard you polish it, the value of this piece of jade has definitely doubled!
The merchant said in a trembling voice: "Brother, I will pay a thousand... ten million. Do you sell it... or not?"
When Fujimoto heard the bidding from this merchant, he felt a whine in his heart, and he wanted to join the tide of gambling stones!
Chapter completed!
