Chapter 175 Crazy Stone (1)

"What?! Such a coincidence?!"

When the red color of ruby ​​was revealed in the stone that had just been cut open, Mo Liming couldn't help but widen his eyes at that moment. He was really surprised, because he had never done that to that stone before. See through, don't know what's inside.

Originally, Mo Liming just did this casually, treating it as an act, after all, the stone he was looking at contained a shadow of ruby, and he didn't want anyone to suspect him, thinking that there was something special about him. Ability, so let's do a show first, cut two stones randomly to show off, to prove that I am not a god, and there are times when I am wrong, so that no matter how good the treasure is in time, others will only think it is because of my good luck.

Unexpectedly, when the second stone was untied, a bright ruby ​​brilliance suddenly appeared.

This was completely by accident, which greatly exceeded Mo Liming's expectations. Of course, he couldn't be unhappy that a real gem was cut out of the rough ruby ​​he bought randomly.

At this moment, not only was he excited and excited, Tang Yan and Chen Wei who came with him were naturally very happy, and each of them was also very excited.

"Mo Liming, that's really the color of ruby!"

At that moment, Tang Yan beamed, couldn't help but grabbed Mo Liming's arm, and said cheerfully.

"Huh——" Mo Liming took a long breath, turned his head to look at Tang Yan with joy in his eyes and said with a smile, "Miss Tang, I didn't expect that our luck is so good today, this trip to go shopping is not in vain. But it’s also thanks to Brother Chen, if he hadn’t led the two of us to find Boss Moshi, then we wouldn’t have met.”

As he said that, Mo Liming turned his face away and looked at Chen Wei with a smile and said, "Brother Chen, thank you so much this time."

"Brother Mo, we met abroad. We are Chinese compatriots and a family. In fact, I just did it with a little effort, and it all depends on your own eyesight." Chen Wei quickly laughed and shook his head.

Now those onlookers are also discussing and praising the bright red stone. Although Mo Liming can't understand what they are saying, he can naturally read it from their faces. Get that meaning out.

"Brother Chen, call that master for me and ask him to stop for a while." Mo Liming greeted Chen Wei.

"Well, yes." Chen Wei agreed, and then he greeted the stone cutter in Burmese, only to see that the master kept nodding, and then he turned his head and stared at Mo Li with a smile on his face. Ming, in those fiery eyes, there is envy and appreciation.

Mo Liming told the master to stop immediately to further analyze the stone, he naturally had a reason.

Before, he was careless and let the master cut the stone by himself, because he didn't have any hope for the two stones that he took to dissect, but now the situation is very different, the second stone suddenly burst into a ray of light, That was a huge Duplo opportunity.

Therefore, he, Mo Liming, became nervous and immediately paid more attention to it.

Next, he will use the "seven-eyed Buddha spirit" on his left eye to see through the light to inspect the side of the stone with ruby ​​brilliance to see how the rubies are distributed there.

Things have come to this point, although it looks like the color of the ruby ​​is fiery red like blood, and the foreground is bright red, but it is still only showing one side, just looking at it with the naked eye, who knows what is going on under it.

This is almost the same reason as betting on jadeite jade. It is not the same as betting on rising prices. Only when you completely unravel it will you know whether it is a good piece of jade or something else is wrong. Mo Liming has come into contact with many such live examples in the past.

Although Mo Liming doesn't know much about gemstones, he still knows some basic things. The quality of a gemstone depends on many things, such as particle size, color depth, purity, and so on.

But in any case, how variable it is, Mo Liming is full of hope at the moment, he seems to be full of confidence, and a dazzling precious ruby ​​is waiting for him to pick.

Mo Liming also knows very well that rubies, which can be called the "king of gems", are rare in origin, and Burmese rubies are the delicate ones in the middle, which are very valuable.

It can be seen from this that the quality of rubies mined in Meng Gong, the "hometown of gems", should not be much worse.

After a while, Mo Liming squatted down, secretly driving the "seven-eyed Buddha spirit" on his left eye, and silently injected it into the stone.

At this time, Tang Yan and Chen Wei also followed him and approached. They both showed eagerness on their faces. Presumably, the two of them also wanted to know the specific distribution of the rubies in the stone.

A large piece of the stone was cut off, and the remaining half was about half the size of a basketball, flat and hemispherical. If you didn't continue to cut it open, no one would know what it contained.

At this time, all the spectators gathered around to watch the excitement were all staring at the stone containing the brilliant light of ruby, eagerly waiting for his master's next move, and all of them wanted to know the situation of the lower layer of that slice.

After an unknown amount of time, Mo Liming suddenly exhaled, raised his head and stood up.

"Mo Liming, how is it?" Tang Yan asked eagerly in his ear, "Do you want to cut it down immediately?"

Mo Liming shook his head, nodded hesitantly and said: "Well, cut it."

He stared at Tang Yan with sparkling eyes, which was obviously an expression of extreme joy.

Now that part of it has been unraveled, let's finish the matter to the end, so that everyone can open their eyes.

This was unexpected by Mo Liming, he didn't want to reveal it, otherwise he wouldn't deliberately put away the piece of ore where he saw the ruby ​​and wouldn't cut it.

But it’s God’s will to make it to this point by accident, let’s go along with it, keep a low profile when it’s time to keep a low profile, and if you pretend to be low profile when you have to be high profile, then you’re pretending to be coercive, and you will despised.

Speaking of which, Mo Liming just wanted to do his best to take advantage of this burning interest.

"Brother Chen, now you tell the master to continue cutting stones, but let him follow my instructions." Mo Liming suddenly said to Chen Wei.

"Well, no problem!" Chen Wei agreed without hesitation.

This time Mo Liming seemed to be quite sure, but except himself, no one knew what was going on under the dazzling red light.

He took a closer look at it just now, in order to be careful in the process of analyzing the stone in the future, so as not to insert the knife in the wrong position and destroy the useful components of the gemstone in a stone.

"Brother Chen, please do the translation for us." Mo Liming said politely.

"You're welcome. This is an easy task, without any effort." Chen Wei said with a smile.

Afterwards, with Chen Wei's help and communication, Mo Liming instructed the master's next stone-cutting work hand in hand.

The master came according to his request, he is the master of this stone, he has the final say on everything.

The existence environment of ruby ​​is different from the origin of jade and other precious jade. The former is much worse. Ruby, sapphire and other gemstones generally exist in alluvial deposits, and the range of their roots is extremely small. Finding the mining area can be described as "finding a needle in a haystack". ".

Often, if you want to dig out a ruby, you need to open a thick layer of overburden to find natural rock materials or grains such as gravel that may contain rubies.

The raw ore of ruby ​​is accumulated from many gravel materials, so compared with the raw jadeite, its inner substance has a clear sense of layering, and the density is not so high, so it is easier to open.

Under Mo Liming's instructions, the master did not use the cutting machine, but used manual stone cutters, awls and other stone cutting tools.

It didn't take long for the covering layer of stone grains to be peeled off, and the originally large stone turned into a small ball in an instant.

At that moment, the ruby ​​revealed by the reduction of the breccia was so conspicuous.

"what?!"

At that moment, bursts of exclamations broke out among the watching crowd, and then they were full of voices, all admiring the beauty of the ruby.

"Brother, congratulations!" Chen Wei couldn't help congratulating loudly, "Your ruby ​​must be tens of carats after it is taken out! It's extremely rare!"

"Hehe, thank you." Mo Liming grinned from ear to ear, and he held the ruby ​​that still covered the rock formation particles into his palm. Oval in shape.

"Mo Liming, it's unbelievable!" Tang Yan couldn't help but praised, "Although we saw so many rough rubies at Boss Moshi's just now, none of them are as big and beautiful as yours. !"

"Yeah, it's so exquisite!" Chen Wei said with delighted eyes, "Ruby like yours should be regarded as 'pigeon's blood red' quality, which is the most expensive variety in the market, compared to diamonds. Be precious! I remember it was at Sotheby’s auction in London, England, a 27.35-gram Burmese red envelope was sold for $400 million, or $146145 per carat. In fact, even today, rubies are still more expensive than top colorless diamonds. Rare is more valuable. If it is five carats, it is very rare and rare. According to my preliminary estimate, yours is at least 40 carats, and the price will double several times!"

"Oh, really?!" Mo Liming said with surprise and joy, his face brightened.

Then he hastily paid the cost of calcining the stone to the processing factory. In order to reward, he paid twice as much, and the boss was very grateful.

After leaving the processing factory with the ruby, Mo Liming and Tang Yan came to Chen Wei's shop.
