Chapter 170: Identifying Jade

Chapter 170: Diagnosis

Almost both jade and mirror are destroyed!

Zhao Laoer and the young stall owner were both surprised.

Zhou Xuan picked up the fragments of Guanyin statue and stretched out to the boss, saying, "Look at it yourself, the glass base and a layer of green paint applied outside. Is this a top-notch A-quality product? Even if it is a B-quality product or a C-quality product, it is better, but you are not jade at all, but water glass, something that is so cheap that it cannot be cheaper. The cost may not be even five yuan!"

Zhao Laoer was stunned and asked, "What is the abc thing you mentioned?"

Zhou Xuan said: "Abc products are three types of technical standards formulated by the State Technical Supervision Bureau based on the current jade jewelry sold on the market. They are A-quality, B-quality, C-quality, but this standard does not represent the grade of jade. It only divides the advantages and disadvantages of jade into three types. The finished products, texture, and color of natural jade raw materials have not been artificially modified to maintain their natural essence. This type of jade jewelry is called A-quality. For example, high-end jade sold in stores, there is no need to add the words "natural or A-quality", but it must be A-quality."

Zhou Xuan put a few pieces of fragments on the stall and said: "Some grounds are dirty, gray-black, poor water heads, and relatively dry, but there are green or dark low-end jade raw materials or semi-finished products. After artificial chemical and physical treatment, they can increase transparency and make the color look better. However, this artificially strong corrosion treatment will destroy the original structure of the jade and make the jade soft. Therefore, it needs to be filled with organic glue and sticky, which reduces its own quality. Moreover, the filling is organic, which will age and slowly turn yellow over time. At the same time, many cracks will occur, and the bright colors will fade. At this time, it is worthless. This is a B-quality product, also known as "new jade" in the market. After making the finished product, it is almost no different from the real high-quality jade. However, if you want to identify it, there is still a way!"

"Look at this!" Zhou Xuan said as he picked up a piece of Guanyin fragment and pointed to the glass mirror and said, "B goods have several disadvantages. First, they are easy to break, and the sound is short and not crisp when they collide with each other. Second, they will age and fade. However, this process will be a little longer, usually three to five years, and the color fades after fading. Third, during the optimization process, chemical high-corrosion agents such as 'water regia' and strong acids are necessary. It is harmful and useless to wear on people. Now, water glass and silicone are used as fillers on the market to replace resin, which makes it even more difficult to identify. For example, this Guanyin statue, there is water glass in the middle. B goods cannot be considered, and can only be called C goods. It is just a layer of green paint on the outer layer!"

"The hardness of inferior jade or organic matter is not high. Jade at home and abroad is divided into two categories. One is soft jade. It seems that domestic jade is generally soft jade with low hardness. Jade is called jade and corundum. It has the highest hardness among jade, reaching the seventh level of Mohist, while ordinary glass is only about 5.5 degrees of Mohist. If you carve a knife on a real jade, you cannot leave any trace. But if it is a fake, the hardness will definitely not be reached. You can tell if you use it with the glass to know the authenticity!"

Zhou Xuan said this and looked at Zhao Lao Er with a smile. Zhao Lao Er suddenly realized and pointed to the fragments of Guanyin and said, "Oh, I understand. That is to say, if it is fake, it will break like glass when you touch it. If it is real, it will break the glass, and there is no problem in itself. If this Guanyin seems to be broken, it will be fake!"

Guanyin statue is very obvious, because real jade, regardless of the quality of the grade, its inside and outside are equal in color. It is impossible to have a color inside, but the outer surface layer is another color.

Zhao Laoer muttered again: "But this method is too much. If it is not broken, then you won't recognize it?"

The young stall owner looked extremely ugly for a moment. After listening to Zhou Xuan's talk, he suddenly slapped the stall board and shouted: "What kind of wild costume do you want to wear? If you break my jade Guanyin statue, you will pay 3,000 yuan quickly, otherwise you will look good!"

Zhao Laoer was immediately angry, and took 100 yuan from his pocket and threw it to the stall, and said annoyedly: "You have to make 3,000 yuan for this fake thing? I'll give you 100 yuan, take it in twenty more to cheat people!"

He couldn't help but feel angry, and according to the price he had said at the beginning, it was only 1,200 yuan. In the blink of an eye, it rose to 3,000 yuan. However, the stall owner wanted to play rogues, and Zhao Laoer was not afraid. He was following four thugs, Zheng Bing, Jiang Jin, Zhang Shan and Wu Feng!

Zhou Xuan was naturally not worried, and said lightly: "Boss, no matter how you say this guy, it's all fake. If it's true, then it's more than 3,000 yuan? At least 5 million, 3,000 yuan, do you think it's worth it?"

The boss shouted with his waist on his back: "Damn, do you want to cheat? Is it because there are too many people?" As he said that, he called out outside the stall: "Brothers, everyone, someone is lying to the account!"

When he shouted, more than a dozen young men immediately rushed out of other stalls, and they all rushed over with great momentum. I guess the owners of these stalls were all in the same group and had already cooperated. Whenever there was someone asking for trouble at any stall, they would come over as soon as they called. Usually, the tourists from other places were from other places, and the transactions were probably between dozens and hundreds of yuan. When encountering such a thing, they would definitely think they were unlucky. Locals would definitely not come to this roadside stall to buy jade.

"Zhang Jiang, what's the matter?"

"If you want to pay a debt, break his hand..."

...

A dozen people surrounded Zhou Xuan and the other six. The crowded side shouted and pointed at each other.

To be honest, Zhou Xuan really doesn't want to fight with this young street stall owner named Zhang Jiang. He is just a small vendor struggling to survive at the bottom. Although he is a lie, no tourists don't know it is fake? It's also cheap. Whoever is an ordinary person who goes out to travel doesn't buy some bargains outside and give them to his family and friends?

As I have experienced more things, my experience has grown longer, my mentality has become much more calm. Zhou Xuan sighed and said to Zhang Jiang: "Boss, you have to leave a way out for yourself in everything. It is not easy for you to make money. To be honest, if you have the ability, you will not set up a street stall here, right? There are some people you can't afford to offend, and what you do is not a good thing. Although it is not a big evil, it is still a lie after all, right? Let's forget about this, Zhao Er, let's go!"

Zhao Laoer was already a little angry, and saw Zheng Bing and Jiang Jin blocking him and Zhou Xuan in all directions. As long as the other party attacked, they would do it. They were waiting. When he heard Zhou Xuan say that he would leave in a low-key manner, he was stunned.

Zhang Jie sneered and said, "I want to leave? I want to leave without losing money?" He was already thinking in his mind that the three thousand dollars would come, and he would take half of it to drink and eat with his brothers, making a pure profit of 1,600 yuan.

Zhou Xuan felt compassionate in his heart. After all, Zhang Jiang is no match for Fatty Jin. Like Fatty Jin, Zhou Xuan doesn't pity him in what he does. But Zhang Jiang just set up a stall to survive. If Jiang Jin and his friends took action, they would have to break their hands and feet. If it was a big deal and the trouble was on the face of the official, these people would have to be fined and detained. I really couldn't bear it.

After thinking about it, Zhou Xuan took out his money clip, took out a stack of money, counted thirty pieces, put it on Zhangjiang's stall, and said lightly: "Forget it, I'll give you the money. Don't make trouble if you're fine!"

Although they were very fierce, they gave in and gave money, so there was no need for Zhangjiang and his group to do anything else. They could make small blows, but they didn't dare to cause big troubles, and they wouldn't be in small matters, and they wouldn't be able to buy small matters. They would cost hundreds of thousands of yuan. But if the amount was tens of thousands to a larger amount, it would be robbery and extortion, and they still dared not.

Zhou Xuan gave the money and signaled Zheng Bing and the other two not to cause trouble, dragging Zhao Laoer forward.

Zhao Laoer still felt the pity in Zhou Xuan's eyes, thinking that Zhou Xuan's money would not be used up anyway. Just forget about this little thing, but I didn't suffer any loss anyway. No matter how evil Zhang Jiang is, he will be as evil as Fatty Jin, so he didn't say more and followed Zhou Xuan obediently.

Seeing that Zhou Xuan did not make any move, and there was no danger, Zheng Bing and the other two did not take action and followed quietly behind the two.

Zhao Laoer took a few steps, but he didn't talk about this, but he talked about jade again!

"I remember, you haven't said what C-dol is, is this a fake one?"

Zhou Xuan burst out laughing and said while walking: "C products are artificially dyed colorless or light-colored jade into bright and beautiful colors based on the treatment of B products. The colors added include red and green. However, for B products, C products, the state has clearly stipulated that the words "Jade Optimization" must be marked on the name of the goods sold, otherwise it will be a fraudulent act of using inferior products as the best!"

Zhao Laoer smiled and said, "The abc goods label is not marked on Zhangjiang's goods, right?"

"Haha, you guy!" Zhou Xuan smiled, "Of course he is a scam, but this is a roadside stall. Think about it, no matter what it sells, no matter what it sells, who will buy it at a high price?"

"That's right." Zhao Laoer said excitedly, "Brother, today I found that your knowledge is a little higher than mine. Let me tell me about the fake jadeite, so that I won't be fooled in the future!"

Zhao Laoer really wanted to enter this industry. He thought that if he didn't master this knowledge well, he would definitely be fooled. Just like just now, if it weren't for Zhou Xuan, he might have spent tens of thousands of yuan to buy some things worth a few dollars.

Zhou Xuan smiled. He remembered all his knowledge from books, but his real ability is ice qi supernatural powers, which of course cannot be taught.

"Second, this method of making fakes is endless. I just understand a little bit of the basics. Compared with experts, that's far behind!" Zhou Xuan said with a smile. This is not modest, it's the truth.

Zhao Laoer heard it very enthusiastically and waved his hand and said, "Tell me quickly, I think your fur is very good. The master has never seen a real good jade bet on it. You are still a real guy who has been betting on tens of millions of dollars. I see that this fur is OK, so I will say it quickly, and say it quickly!"

"Just say it, what's the hurry!" Zhou Xuan punched Zhao Laoer. This guy was very concerned about getting rich, but it's better to have such a heart. Zhao Laoer can do the things here in the future.

"There are many ways to make jade fakes, and I only know a little bit. I have already told you about the sadness, taking a bath, making it into BC products with strong acids, etc. However, as long as you indicate the identification in the store, it is also allowed to sell. It is not considered fraud. Real fakes are considered other types, such as second-layer stone, three-layer stone, artificial skin making, etc."

Zhou Xuan held his finger and talked to Zhao Laoer one by one about his knowledge from the book. "The second layer of stone means using low-quality jade raw materials and sticking a layer of jade slices with good water color at the cut. The third layer of stone means three layers. In the middle, use low-quality valuable brick material, stick an extremely thin piece of green glass in the middle, and then stick a colorless jade slice on the green glass. The artificial skin is mostly used for gambling stone raw materials. If you lose betting on gambling stones, the wool material cut is not green or the background color is very poor. Use mud and sand glue with the same color as the skin color on the surface of the jade raw materials, and then gambling out the wool material. These types are basically fake and deceptive behaviors!"

When Zhou Xuan was speaking vigorously, he suddenly heard a noise behind him. Several people turned their heads to take a look, but they saw that there were more than a dozen policemen in Zhangjiang’s stalls, looking around Zhangjiang’s stalls.

Zhou Xuan looked at Zheng Bing. Seeing that Zheng Bing's expression was very plain, he knew what was the reason. It must be that the leaders of the city sent someone to follow them closely. Zhang Jiang became a bad guy. Zhou Xuan let him go, but their own boss didn't let him go.

Hearing a few more terrible calls, it was obvious that Zhang Jiang was beaten up. Zhou Xuan sighed, shook his head, and said, "Let's go!"

After walking a few steps, I heard someone chasing me tightly behind me, and shouting while running: "Sir, please wait a moment, sir, please wait a moment!"

Turning around, two policemen ran after him panting and ran closer. One of them handed Zhou a big stack of money and said, "Sir, please click it, is it 3,000 yuan? We happened to pass by and found that this stall was cheating customers. Sorry, this is just a very special behavior..."

Of course, Zhou Xuan had no intention of listening to their confession. He took the money and put it in the bag without counting it, and said, "Thank you then!"

The two policemen quickly saluted and said, "You're welcome, this is what we should do, you can walk slowly!"

When Zhou Xuan turned around and was about to leave, he suddenly thought of something and quickly turned around and said, "You guys wait a moment!"

The two policemen turned around, their expressions a little nervous.

"Don't be difficult for that Zhang Jiang. It's not easy for a stall vendor!" Zhou Xuan sighed and said.
