Chapter 246

At ten o'clock in the morning, Meng Zhen and Xiaolang arrived at the International Handicraft City in Chengyang District of the island city. After parking the car, they entered the handicraft city slowly.

Because the China International Jewelry Festival and China International Jewelry Expo are being held here today, there are a lot of tourists coming in and out, and many of them are rushing to the rough stone auction.

"Xiaolang, do you want to buy a piece today and try it?"

Meng Zhen followed the shuttle crowd into the exhibition hall, where rough stones were placed one after another on the red carpet.

To be honest, she squatted and looked at it for a long time, but she couldn't see that there were emeralds in these things that were similar to ordinary stones.

"One knife is poor, one knife is rich, one knife is crazy, one knife is white..." Xiaolang also squatted beside the stone, muttering in a low voice.

"What, Xiaolang, what are you talking about?"

Mengzhen was playing with a few stones. The aura in her hand could verify the quality of plants, but she didn't know if it would work for stones.She had just passed, but she heard Xiaolang muttering and didn't know what to say.

"Hehe, this is what my grandfather said back then. It means that betting on rocks is a high-risk investment, so it's best not to take it lightly."

"Oh, let's take a look first, let's increase our knowledge!"

Compared with the conservative spring city, the island city next to the seashore is much more open.There are also many people who are brave enough to try. As soon as the two of them squatted down, they heard someone shouting outside, "It's a stone removal, someone here is a stone removal, go and have a look!"

Meng Zhen raised his head and saw that many people in the hall were running towards one direction after hearing the sound.

"Huh? Is there someone who can explain stones on site? Let's go and have a look!"

As he spoke, he took Xiaolang's hand and squeezed through the crowd.

Unlike Yunnan, where stone gambling is prevalent, almost every merchant selling woolen materials in Ruili, Yunnan has tools for analyzing stones, and there is only one place in the entire market that can analyze stones professionally.Meng Zhen mixed in the crowd and came to a small exhibition hall, where there were some tools for diagnosing stones. A man in his 30s was holding a seven or eight kilograms of rough stone with care, and a small cutting machine was placed next to him. There is a basin of clear water.

"Mr. Wang, do you want to solve it now?" Ms. Qin in charge asked softly.

"untie!"

With that said, the man handed the stone to the staff on the side.

"Hey, who is this girl?"

An uncle in his fifties next to Meng Zhen curiously asked the person in front of him, referring to Ms. Qin who was accompanied by a reporter.

"Hehe, you don't know her. She is the director of our Stone Gambling Committee. She went to Burma to gamble with stones." A man in his 40s in front of him turned his head and said, pointing his hand quietly to guide the workers. Ms. Qin who was cutting, "Seeing whether the bracelets on her hands are intact or not, it was a gamble of 3000 yuan. This pair of bracelets can be sold for more than 20 yuan in the market. The lines she drew must be fine!" "

"Oh, that's an expert in stone betting. By the way, how much did the little brother in front spend on the stone?"

"I heard that it cost [-] to [-] yuan. The skin is very good. Hey, hey, look, it's green!"

The two of them were chatting, and saw that the machine in front of them had started to "rustle" and turned with a knife, cutting off a thin layer of outer skin, revealing a little emerald green.As soon as everyone saw the green, a few people who had a little research on gambling stones began to exclaim, "It's green, it's green!"

Mr. Wang, who was watching by the side, was even more pleasantly surprised. When he cut it just now, Teacher Qin said that the skin of this stone is very good, and it is very likely that it contains emeralds. Only then did he rub a little of the outer skin, his rough stone weighs seven or eight kilograms.

Seeing Lu, the staff splashed water and asked the stone owner how to cut it.This Mr. Wang is probably just playing with stones for a short time, and he may not have enough experience, but he is well-equipped. He poured out a flashlight and a magnifying glass from his pocket, carefully took photos up and down, and then gestured on the surface for a long time, finally Draw a line.

The machine turned again, and after about ten minutes, the stone was cut according to the position he had planned, and an apple-sized emerald was embedded in a piece of white sandy rock.

"It's not bad to grow water, just for this one, it's considered a good bet for him!"

"How much is that worth? I don't think there are many bracelets sold in jewelry stores worth more than ten thousand or eight thousand. This alone can be worth sixty to seventy thousand?"

"Come on, I don't understand. Most jewelry stores display mid-to-low-end jade, and the better ones cost hundreds of thousands. His jadeite is considered to be high-end, and it is estimated to be worth about a hundred thousand."

People around were talking about it, and Mr. Wang in front was very excited holding the stone containing emerald.After a brief moment of excitement, he pointed to the other half of the stone and said, "This one is cut from the middle!"

"rustle!"

With a knife down, there is also a large piece of emerald here.

"Mr. Wang, congratulations, I'll pay 25 for these two pieces, how about it?"

Ms. Qin took a closer look at the two pieces of jadeite. Well, they are like water. It is estimated that two pairs of bracelets and a few pendants can be carved out. If they are sold, they can be worth 40 million yuan. She bought them for 25 yuan and deducted various items. You can still earn part of the fee.

"Hehe, that's fine, sell it to Mr. Qin, I don't worry!"

Mr. Wang said cheerfully, he paid 25 yuan for this rough stone, and sold it for [-] yuan, which is too much money!Hearing their conversation, the onlookers immediately started to commotion, and some people had already started to go to the rough stone exhibition hall to take pictures of the stones.

Ms. Qin was also very straightforward, she told her assistant to get things done, and then continued to lead the reporter to visit.As soon as Meng Zhen saw that the gambling director also bought it, he remembered his purpose of coming, and hurriedly hid in a deserted place and took out three stones, two of which were the rough emerald stones that Xiaolang said, and one was a rotten stone by the river .

She came to the rock unscrambler with the stones in her arms, stopped Ms. Qin, and asked embarrassingly, "Mr. Qin, I have some rocks here, can you help untie them?"

"Oh, let me see!"

When Ms. Qin heard this, she didn't refuse.It seems that people who gamble on rocks are somewhat superstitious. Wherever the price of stone gamblers rises, many people want to take advantage of their luck and come here to solve stones.I believe that Mr. Wang just now will drive many people to shoot rough stones.

She looked at the three stones that Meng Zhen had piled on the ground, and nodded, "The skins of these two stones look pretty good, you can cut them from here to have a look."

She drew a line on the epidermis with her finger and suggested.

Meng Zhen turned his head to look at Xiaolang, saw him nodding his head, and said with a smile, "Okay, I'll listen to you, come, master cut it for me!"

She directly carried the largest piece up, and asked the master to cut it along the line pointed by Ms. Qin.

At this time, the crowd who had just dispersed, saw someone explaining the stone here again, and gathered here again with a whoosh.

The machine was running rustlingly, and after a while, a quarter of the stone was cut off, revealing a piece of green on the smooth surface!
"Full of green? How is that possible? And the planting water is also very good!"

"Is that worth more than the one just now?"

"I have to cut it again. If it's full of emeralds, it can be worth several million!"

Although Meng Zhen knew that it was rough jadeite, he was still very excited to see the emerald green inside. So it was jadeite!

"Miss, how do you cut it?"

The staff asked beside her.

How to cut?Meng Zhen looked at Xiaolang, and Xiaolang leaned beside him and said strangely, "I think it should be cut from the middle. Didn't that uncle cut it from the middle just now?"

middle?That should be the best position.Meng Zhen nodded, and lightly slid his fingers across the middle, "Okay, we don't understand anyway, so let's try!"

"it is good!"

The machine started to run again, and a knife went down, revealing a piece of green the size of a palm.

"It's so green, it's incredible!"

Ms. Qin also rushed to the front, took out a flashlight and looked at the emerald section carefully, "Miss, I will pay 300 million for this piece of emerald!"

"300 million?" Meng Zhen knew that emeralds were valuable, but this green stone the size of a football in front of him was actually worth 300 million? !
Seeing that her aunt was a little dumbfounded, Xiao Lang tugged on her skirt, "Auntie, 300 million!"

"Oh, okay, then I'll sell it to you. I still have two pieces here, can I cut them together?"

"Okay, no problem!"

Ms. Qin has been dealing with jade for more than ten years, and she is very fond of jade. She herself stopped betting on stones because she had seen "one night of extreme poverty" in betting on stones.But not betting on stones does not mean not playing with jade. She has also seen the three stones in Meng Zhen's hand. She estimates that two of them can produce emeralds. Now that one has been verified, she wants to know if her eyesight is still good. so good.

Meng Zhen didn't want others to see the clue, so he handed over an ordinary stone first, "Same as before, cut from the middle!"

Ms. Qin shook her head, this one is too much!
Sure enough, with a knife, the two halves are white and blue stones.

"Oh, it's broken!"

"That's right, ten bets and nine loses, if they are all jadeite rough, those stones in the exhibition hall must be snapped up."

"Tch, just now a stone was worth 300 million, enough for a lifetime."

Meng Zhen sighed, looking annoyed, and handed over the third piece.This piece is the smallest among the three pieces, and it is as big as a cantaloupe. She was reminded by Xiaolang, and she said to the staff angrily, "I still cut it in the middle, I don't believe this piece is also a stone!"

The staff put the stone away and cut it according to Meng Zhen's request.

"Eh? It's foggy, stop, stop, let me see!"

Ms. Qin saw white mist appearing on the cut surface, and the white mist turned green. It is estimated that if you cut it further, you will get emeralds!She was worried that if Meng Zhen said "cut from the middle" again, the cut might be broken.

"What's wrong, Teacher Qin!"

Meng Zhen leaned aside and asked curiously, with the expression of a layman who doesn't understand anything.Seeing her appearance, many people in the crowd couldn't help but guess whether this batch of rough stones is better, how can such a stick get out jadeite? !

"Don't cut it, just wipe it!"

Ms. Qin took a flashlight to shine for a long time. She estimated that it would turn green if it was only one finger thick.

"Okay, you are an expert, listen to you!"

In fact, Xiaolang also said that this piece of jadeite is located in the three-quarters of the left hemisphere. She cut it from the middle, on the one hand, it can produce fog, on the other hand, it makes people believe that both of them are amateurs, even if the jadeite is out, it will be a collision. Great luck.

"嗤嗤" the staff picked up a grinder and began to rub it carefully...
