How did I become an old artist?

In northern Myanmar, the Jade and Jade Night Market.

In several small alleys, there are all people coming and going.

There are many people live broadcasting here, and some people are shooting videos.

Many traveling merchants stand on the road, wrapping a few pieces of jade in opaque sacks in their hands, and when customers ask for prices, they will show the jade to the guests.

The tourists here are all well-known.

Ming material refers to the jadeite that has been cut, and the overall condition of the jadeite can be seen directly from the cut surface.

Most of these bright materials are low-quality products, but they can be sold for tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands when meeting jade merchants.

The drone flies up and broadcasts live.

Zhao Chen was dressed very low-key and wore a mask, Ma Xiaowu followed him, and Sun Fugui rested in the hotel.

The market doesn't look that high-end, just like the vegetable market at the entrance of the community, it's very messy.

Since it was night, when netizens returned home from work and sat slumped at home, the live broadcast room was surprisingly hot.

Few people broadcast live at the gambling stone market, and this place is still in northern Myanmar.

Everyone is even more interested.

The barrage in the live broadcast room is always full.

Watching the crowded scene, the audience was very excited.

[Good guy, it feels like an underground trading market! 】

[It's so backward, but there are so many people! 】

[I've been to this place before. Don't look at the backwardness, the transactions are often hundreds of thousands, which is terrible! 】

[Many Chinese jade merchants buy jade here. 】

Many bigwigs appeared in the barrage to speak out.

Ma Xiaowu walked beside Zhao Chen, looking at the people around him, he was still a little worried:
"Brother Chen is here, these people don't have waists."

Hearing this, Zhao Chen smiled helplessly, "This is a market, as long as you don't just follow people to strange places, no one can do anything to you."

"Let's go in, this place is full of tourist merchants, and there are no good goods."

"Go to a more advanced place in the depths, and that place will be much cleaner."

The two continued to go in.

On the way, Zhao Chen introduced the situation here to the netizens.

"This place is the largest jadeite market in Burma Temple. Not far away is the jadeite mining area. Since the market is very large, many top-quality jadeite mines will be shipped here."

"However, I don't recommend that you buy and sell in these places. The people here are very smart, generally speaking, they are well-known, and the water head is not enough. There is nothing worth buying."

Hearing Zhao Chen's words, everyone immediately responded:

[Brother Chen, don't worry, I will never pass in this life! 】

[This is played by rich people, or by dedicated jade bosses, where we ordinary people can get it. 】

[Just watch the excitement, which is equivalent to an outdoor live broadcast. 】

[It turns out that this is the real jadeite rough market, it's the first time I've seen it! 】

The barrage in the live broadcast room was extremely lively.

The camera of the drone swept over, and there was no smile on the faces of the tourists and customers coming and going.

Everyone engraved the expressions of chasing interests on their faces, which looked real and cold.

Profits come first here.

Zhao Chen simply stayed in the night market outside, then went straight to the two-story buildings inside.

The stones in the building cannot be broadcast live, Zhao Chen turned off the live broadcast, Ma Xiaowu put the drone into his backpack, and the two came to the interior of the high-end stone market.

The environment here is different from the outside.

The internal environment is more like some exhibition halls. There are many uncut jade materials on the shelves of the exhibition halls. Some jade materials only show a little corner of the jade materials. The more green traces are exposed, the more expensive the price is. .

When Ma Xiaowu looked at these jade materials, the first thing he saw was the price.

This is also the difference between ordinary people and rich people shopping malls.

Ordinary people will look at the price tag first, and the rich will only look at the quality of the goods.

"My dear, a few broken stones sell for hundreds of thousands, and then there are a few more that sell for a million."

"Don't people here treat money as money?"

Ma Xiaowu exclaimed.

Zhao Chen replied: "That's why it's called betting on stones. It depends on luck. If you are lucky, you can cut out top-quality materials. One stone may sell for [-] million. If you are unlucky, several million may just go to waste."

Hearing this, Ma Xiaowu shuddered.

With this level of capital transactions, he can only watch and join in the fun.

Zhao Chen walked around, but he was not very satisfied with these stones.

However, his purpose is not to be on the rough stones that have been on the shelves for an unknown period of time.

"Go, let's take you to see the real good stuff."

"There will be an auction here every one to two months, and there will be bids for every stone."

"These stones have been carefully selected, and even the conditions inside have been verified with the light of the machine along the exposed jade."

"So, the top customers are all selected directly at the auction."

"I have prepared some funds and plan to try my luck."

"Go and see the goods first."

Zhao Chen said to Ma Xiaowu.

Ma Xiaowu replied: "Follow the boss, I have really learned a lot now!"

Then, Zhao Chen verified his qualifications to enter the auction venue, and then went deeper.

A total of 43 top-quality rough stones of different sizes are placed here.

Each rough stone has a corresponding label.

Those who participate in the auction can watch the condition of each rough stone in advance.

At this moment, there are five or six people who are checking carefully here. These people wear professional equipment and lights, and check the details of the stone bit by bit.

Zhao Chen also walked over, looking at them one by one.

"Boss, what's the price of these stones?"

Ma Xiaowu immediately asked Zhao Chen curiously, wanting to learn more.

"The reserve price is 200 million, and it may be tens of millions more expensive. It depends on the auction situation at that time."

"Look at that NO.12, it reveals such a large piece of water green, and the composition is very good, it is a top-quality product, and more people will grab it."

"If you look at these pieces again, there is only a small crack, and the condition of the stone cannot be seen, so people will be more cautious when asking prices."

Zhao Chen explained.

At this time, a woman in her thirties who was full of jewels walked towards Zhao Chen. This woman was well maintained, her charm was still there, and her figure was very slender.

"Master Zhao, is it really you? What a coincidence."

"I didn't expect to meet you here."

The woman greeted with a smile.

"Hello." Zhao Chen nodded and responded politely.

"I am the chairman of Pudong Baoli Jewelry, and my name is Jiang Yiran. Seeing that you are here, master, I know that you will be able to pick good products." The unique charm of a woman.

But Zhao Chen knows that women who know how to do business are not easy, especially big business, they are good at using all resources, and their methods are very clever.

Therefore, if you can ignore it, ignore it.

"I'll just take a look." Zhao Chen replied again.

Then, Zhao Chen looked at the condition of the next rough stone.

Jiang Yiran kept his eyes open.

There is no way, Zhao Chen's reputation in China is too great, a national treasure artist.

Can such a person have poor eyesight?

No one will believe it.

In the auction market, it is not uncommon for many people to snatch a piece of jade. Anyway, the one with the highest price wins.

After Zhao Chen appeared in the rough stone market, many Chinese jewelers followed him.

For a master like Zhao Chen, these jewelers are eager to get in touch with him.

After all, if Zhao Chen could hand over his works to them for sale, it would be easy to earn tens of millions.

But if they are competing for top-quality jade raw materials, these merchants will not be relentless.

Zhao Chen didn't care about these people.

He needs to look at all the jade in person to confirm the quality of the jade.

His vision is indeed unique.

There are a few pieces of jade with a very large area of ​​exposed jade, and such jade is indeed very good.

The rest is just showing a little bit of jade.

It depends on the buyer's vision and luck.

With luck, a piece of jade can sell for [-] million.

Bad luck, it may be the tiny bit of jade material exposed, and the rest are stones.

The viewing process took about two hours.

Zhao Chen was very patient, but Ma Xiaowu was a little bored and played with his mobile phone on the side.

Zhao Chen went through all 43 pieces of jade, looking for the feeling of the top-quality jade that he had seen before.

While he was watching, many jewelers were watching him quietly from the sidelines.

It can be seen that these jewelers really want to get some benefits from Zhao Chen.

Zhao Chen didn't seem to notice them, and after seeing the jade, he took Ma Xiaowu and left the jade market.

"Boss, just now a lot of people were staring at you and whispering. They probably want to see what good jade you find so that you can cut it off." Ma Xiaowu reported to Zhao Chenhui.

Zhao Chen nodded and said with a smile, "I know."

"Then what should we do? At that time, many people will compete for the price at the auction, and a piece of jade will cost a lot of money." Ma Xiaowu asked again.

Zhao Chen smiled again, he didn't seem in a hurry.

"I have to look at the jade material in person to determine whether it is good or bad. This process must be seen by others. I am already mentally prepared."

"Let's see when the time comes. If you spend more, you can spend more. Buying good jade is king."

Zhao Chen looked relaxed.

He has never been a disadvantaged person, these businessmen like to cut off bullshit, and Zhao Chen doesn't care.

For the next two days, Zhao Chen did not take any action
It wasn't until the auction started that Zhao Chen reappeared in the jade market.

He sat in the auction seat, and together with a large group of other jewelers, he watched the jade materials put up one by one, and then called for the price.

Many jewelers stared at Zhao Chen.

But contrary to everyone's expectations, except for one piece of jade with a large piece of exposed jade, after Zhao Chen tried to call the price, Zhao Chen did not ask for any price for the rest of the jade.

There were many people at the auction, the asking prices were chaotic, and there were all kinds of buyers.

Until the last piece of jade was placed on the table, Zhao Chen didn't make another bid.

"Master, didn't you come here to pick out the best jade? Why don't you ask for a price!" The rich woman Jiang still looked at Zhao Chen and couldn't help asking.

A smile appeared on the corner of Zhao Chen's mouth, and he said, "I have bought all the jade I wanted to buy, and it went smoother than I imagined."

After hearing Zhao Chen's words, Jiang still froze in place.
