Chapter 49 I want to buy a jade turtle

Since the scale of the jewelry exhibition is worth looking forward to, there must be a lot of good things. Li Yi calculated the money in his pocket, which was less than 1.5 million, and he might not be able to afford a piece of wool at that time.

He had the idea of ​​Guanyin wood carving. He planned to find out the weaknesses of the wood carving first, and then dig a small hole to remove the diamonds. If it really doesn't work, then it will be possible to further destroy them. At that time, he transferred the piece of wool to Hu Laosonghua Shiyanshun, and he was thrown in the car. He was also preparing to find an opportunity to cut it. If there are dates or dates, it will be meat even if it is small.

When he thought of it, Li Yi took out the Guanyin wood carving, took out the carving knife, and knocked it on the wood carving for a long time with the handle, but he couldn't hear anything weak. He had no choice but to cut it from his back.

The wood was very hard, but Li Yi had learned carving after all. He first drew a circle in the selected place, and then began to shovel the wood layer by layer. When it felt almost the same, he changed a pointed awl. As soon as he tried, the cone head fell into it without any obstacles!

Luckily, Li Yi sighed, expanded the hole, stretched out his fingers and dug it out. Sure enough, he felt a layer of velvet cloth, with a few hard things inside.

He used an awl to tear the velvet cloth wrapped in the diamonds and began to pour out the diamonds, one, two, three... and finally poured out fifteen!

Five of these fifteen diamonds are obviously larger than the other ones. The largest of them are almost exactly the same, both of which are sea blue, with at least forty or fifty sections. Under the sunlight coming in from the window, the precious light shines everywhere and shines brightly.

Li Yi judged that both diamonds were likely to exceed fifteen carats, and the other three large diamonds were all white, and the size should be about ten carats.

The remaining diamonds vary in size, two of which are the smallest, probably less than five carats. However, pink diamonds are the rarest. In the past twenty years, only the Argyle mine in Australia has produced a small amount, and they are very small, so the value is also difficult to estimate.

Among the other diamonds is a blue diamond, which looks almost seven or eight carats, but it is sky blue, pure and transparent, and very attractive.

Li Yi had a simple calculation and was frightened by the conclusion he came to. The value of this batch of diamonds is definitely more than 100 million! And among this huge sum of 100 million yuan, the two large sea blue diamonds should be able to contribute almost half of the output!

Li Yi also had his own guesses about the origin of diamonds. Judging from the age of wood carvings, the owner of this group of diamonds should be a big jeweler at that time. In order to avoid the war, he hid his greatest wealth in the wood carvings, but unexpectedly he could not save it.

The information in this regard should not be too difficult to check, but he doesn't have the intention, so what if he finds it? He is preparing to take advantage of this batch of diamonds, but he is not planning to find the owner and return it to others!

Li Yi carefully wrapped the diamond in velvet cloth. After thinking for a long time, he decided to put it in the suitcase he brought back. After packing it, he stood up and looked at it. The "Untitled" worth 200 million yuan was still lying there quietly, and he couldn't help but murmur:

"This is probably the most valuable suitcase in the world. I must not let my mother know, otherwise she will definitely not be able to sleep."

Next, Li Yi found some time, first went to Mr. Zhou to get the painting back, and then found a place to cut the wool from Mr. Hu. Unexpectedly, he actually solved a small piece of coarse bean, and made another 20,000 yuan.

On October 1st, the Jewelry Exhibition opened on time. Liu Qiang arrived early in the morning, and he was still thinking about selling his jadeite at the exhibition.

Li Yi is not in a hurry. No matter how small the exhibition is, it will have an opening ceremony or something. What's more, this is the first time that Yangnan has held such an international exhibition? So there is basically no show in the morning, and I'm afraid there are too many people when I go there in the afternoon.

I really couldn't help my cousin. At ten o'clock, they set off. When they traveled through half a city and were almost two kilometers away from the Li Ning Stadium where the exhibition was located, the car was too busy to move. Li Yi had no choice but to find a place to park and then walk over.

The Li Ning Gymnasium is built by the Baihe River. Willows with soft branches hanging down everywhere on the river bank, swinging slowly with the breeze. The autumn sun that approaches noon is no longer so roasted, making him feel like the willow wind blowing on his face.

It’s really time to come to Baihe to have fun. If you don’t come, the weather will be cold. Seeing that there were many fishing people sitting on both sides of the Baihe River, Li Yi couldn’t help but think that he would come to fish tomorrow, but this time the Polygonum multiflorum water must be diluted and then diluted. But even that is enough for my father to be proud among the fishing enthusiasts, right?

When we arrived at Li Ning Gymnasium, the opening ceremony of the exhibition had just ended, and the crowd began to divert, part of it disperse, part of it stayed in Hall 1, and part of it poured into Hall 2 and Hall 3 that had just opened.

Liu Qiang was also shocked when he saw this surging crowd. Who should I ask to sell things? All the booths of all merchants were surrounded by crowds, and it was too late for them to sell things!

"Look at it casually. I'll treat you to dinner later. You don't have to hurry. Just come before the store is closed."

After following the crowd for a while, Li Yi couldn't stand it anymore, so he went out of the exhibition hall with Liu Qiang and prepared to go home to rest. Just as he was thinking about where to eat, he suddenly heard people around him discussing that there was a part of the venue in the main gymnasium of the Peasant Games that year, and there were very few people there.

The main stadium is a track and field stadium, not far from here, Li Yi decided to go and take a look. After arriving, he realized that this was an exhibition that benefited from it.

Why do you say that? Because the exhibition is all small businesses that are not qualified to enter the International Jewelry Exhibition, but this opportunity is really rare. Yangnan City opened the track and field stadium, and letting these businesses enter the venue is considered a plug-in. Of course, most of these businesses entering the venue are local companies in Yangnan. After all, all the fat and water cannot flow into other people's fields.

Compared to that, there are indeed not many people here, and the track and field stadium is open-air, and the air is not affected by the flow of people. I feel that the exhibition environment is better than the indoor competition venues like Li Ning Stadium. Li Yi is planning to have a good walk here.

The exhibition is divided into two areas, one is jewelry and the other is jade. The jade is also mainly Dushan jade, which is definitely the result of the intentional control of relevant departments in Yangnan City.

After Li Yi came back, he had never had the opportunity to go to the Dushan Jade market. This time he took the opportunity to take a good look. He still remembered the promise he needed to help Bai Qianye bring a batch of Dushan Jade in the past.

The first one is a large booth. When Li Yi saw that it was Yangnan Jade Factory, which was indeed a local enterprise. Both exhibitions actually had locations. Opposite Yangnan Jade Factory is the booth of the private Wolong Jade Factory. The sight of them is two half-person-high black Dushan jade carving giant tortoises, which are very eye-catching. Judging from their popularity, they actually compete with Yangnan Jade Factory.

Dushan jade has rich colors, uneven distribution, and has different thicknesses. The coexistence of multiple colors often occurs in the same piece of jade due to different mineral combinations, which is the main feature of Dushan jade.

Common colors of Dushan jade include white, green, purple, yellow, red, black, etc. Among them, hibiscus stone, permeable white jade, and green jade has a high value. Among them, the emerald green varieties of high-end Dushan jade are similar to Burmese jade, and the value is also different. In addition, the beautiful jade carvings made by imitating natural colors by different colors of jade blocks have advantages that other pure color jade types cannot match.

Seeing that there were many people at the booth of Wolong Jade Factory, Li Yi first browsed the booth of Yangnan Jade Factory. Perhaps the main force was placed at the International Jewelry Exhibition, and the goods here did not satisfy Li Yi, but just walked around for a few minutes and prepared to leave.

This time he did not want to purchase Dushan jade at the exhibition to bring it to Yanjing. He mainly wanted to observe and grasp the current trends, and then go to the countryside to find some small workshops to purchase goods.

Seeing that there were still people pouring in at the entrance of the stadium, Li Yi sighed softly, and without looking at the more people, he took Liu Qiang to the booth of the Wolong Jade Factory.

The two big stone turtles in Wolong Jade Factory brought them a lot of popularity. There were people queuing next to each giant turtle to take photos. When Li Yi passed by, he touched a jade turtle. This was purely a habitual action. Unexpectedly, he was stunned for two seconds after touching it, then quickly ran to the right, touched the jade turtle on the right, and then squeezed into the crowd regardless of the situation and found a man who looked like the person in charge and said:
Chapter completed!
